PHANEROO~DEVOTION 3rd May 2016 Apostle Grace Lubega

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, [1 Peter 1:3]

OUR LIVING HOPE

Our hope is full of life, Lively. We don’t have a hope that is without life. The power of hope is that, even a person without a relationship with God can wake up one day and make a positive statement, and on that confession get results. But this is not the hope God is talking about. Before you understand this lively hope, first understand the power of simple hope.

The bible says there's hope for even a tree. Trees don’t speak, they don’t fast, they do not pray, they don’t speak in other tongues, but at a mere smell of the waters, only smell, not even its actual existence but just the smell of water, the tree sprouts again.
How much more you?
Understand that lively hope is the hope that comes after you believe on the Lord Jesus, it follows after the life of God. This is the hope that you carry child of God, Halleluyah!

FURTHER STUDY: Job 14:7, Hebrews 6:19

GOLDEN NUGGET: Lively hope is the hope that comes after you believe on the Lord Jesus, it follows after the life of God. This is the hope that you carry child of God.

PRAYER: Father God we thank you for the hope that we have as your children. It is not a dead hope, but a lively hope. Lord if a tree be cut and the smell of water causes it to sprout again, how much more us when we have you? Because of this hope we cannot give up. Because of this hope we cannot draw back. Because of this hope, we know that nothing can overcome us. We live with this testimony of victory in our spirits this day, in Jesus’ name. Amen.
