If you consider yourself to be wise and one who understands the ways of God, advertise it with a beautiful, fruitful life guided by wisdom’s gentleness. Never brag or boast about what you’ve done and you’ll prove that you’re truly wise.
James 3:13 TPT
God, we praise and thank You for the living hope that we have in Christ Jesus, our Saviour. Thank You, that He is the same yesterday, today and forever and that we have been placed in union with Him. Thank You for the confident assurance we get to have in Him, knowing that our eternal future is secured in heavenly places! Yes Lord! Hallelujah! You are holy holy holy! Thank You, that our hope is firmly anchored and eternally secured to Christ, the Rock of salvation, and I pray that day by day Your people may hold fast to the blessed hope that is set before us. Heavenly Father, my hope is in You alone as I face the many storms of life that constantly seem to be battering at my door, with increasing intensity. Lord, they seem like billowing waves beating against everything that has spelled security in my life up ‘til now, and causing me to realise that without You I would be overcome in a moment of time. Help me Lord, to look to You and maintain that hope that I have in You, knowing that without You I am nothing, but with You at the helm of my life I have all I need to stand firm in the faith. We pray hope, we pray healing, we pray joy, we pray deliverance, we pray reconciliation, we pray love, we pray rejoicing, we pray salvation, we pray revival, we pray forgiveness in the name of Jesus Christ, amen!
