An expectation. Hope appears to be a desired wish or dream to come true. In this idea hope and trust seem to be interchangeable. Many might say these words mean the same thing depending on who\u2019s using them. How many times have you heard someone say \u201cI\u2019m hoping for the best\u201d or \u201cI\u2019m trusting everything will work out OK?\u201d Because many have been desensitized to the person of Christ \u201cHope\u201d has become a human aspiration for endurance. This aspiration is forged by a strong will and deep conviction and trust. This kind of \u201chope\u201d is the human ability and capacity created in everyone. All exercise this \u201chope\u201d in varying degrees. Human \u201chope\u201d has a beginning and an end. But is there a better \u201chope\u201d? What does the Bible say about \u201chope\u201d?
\nThe word Hope is used 121 times in KJV and 144 ESV and the NIV topping all with 159
\nAs we who have received Christ have received Hope in the person of Christ now living in us. Our hope is not from this world or of this world! Our hope is spiritual. This is not understood by anyone who has not received hope as the person of Christ. God the Father has chosen to birth us to Himself, has birthed Christ in us as our Life, Righteousness, Sanctification, Redemption, and Hope. Which is all eternal.
\nWhat does it mean to have Christ in us as our life and hope?
\n-it fulfills His calling
\n-it fulfills our calling
\n-it fulfills God promise of eternal life
\n-only the birthed child of God has hope as a person in them.
\n-we are provided a living hope which sustains us!
\n-we never hopeless.
\n-the love of our hope cast out the fear which seek to desensitize us.
\n-our hope will never fail neither can we fail our hope!
\n-All hope that is not the person of Christ WILL FAIL.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
