May the God of your hope so fill you with all joy and peace in believing [through the experience of your faith] that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound and be overflowing (bubbling over) with hope”. Romans 15:13 (AMPC) You can dream for good things, desire the best; pray that things will work out, hang on, wonder and wait to see how it goes; or you can turn to God, the very One Who is hope, and place your joyful expectation and confidence in Who He says He is, and in all He has promised to do.
Beloved one, you can expect, hope, and desire—not only God’s great and abiding love—but joy-filled, overflowing with goodness and grace filled days, brought forth in His kindness and love for you. Place your confidence in God alone, where it will never be put to shame. You will never be disappointed in the good He has planned. Wait. Hope. Believe. And know with absolute assurance that it will all work out, for He is at work on your behalf. The God of all hope is on your side! Remember, it is not about what you can do or what you have done—it is about Who He is, and wants to be for you. He wants to show you how very much He loves you. To prove that He is forever faithful, steadfast, and true. Without fail—cherished and chosen child of the King—that’s what true love, God’s love, will do. Let the power of the precious Holy Spirit, bubble up, and overflow in you! Prayer: Magnificent God, Gracious Father, Loving Saviour and Lord, I place my hope in You today—for the things I am holding close to my heart—the hopes, and dreams, and the desires too—and I look to You! Precious Holy Spirit, may Your power flow through me even now—washing away any doubt or despair and lead me into the joy that fills my heart when I place my trust in You! I look to You Lord. I lean afresh into Your promises. I receive Your peace. Come even now, Jesus. With joyful anticipation. Worthy One, I am waiting and watching for You!
