Hope in 60 SecondsSample

Set Free from Shame

You may struggle with the sins of your past. You may feel disqualified from the great destiny God prepared for you, unworthy of His love.

But we find this powerful hope in our Savior: Jesus’ love for you is so great that He was willing to die in your place. The blood of Jesus Christ covered your sins and made a way for you to come boldly to the Father’s throne of grace for help in your time of need. He took the punishment for every sin you ever have or ever will commit. He made a way for the removal of anything that could separate you from the Father’s love, for reconciliation with Him forever. When you come to Him in repentance and ask for His forgiveness, His blood removes every sin you ever committed.

Jesus specializes in taking the most broken, lost cases and making them brand-new. His very presence changes us from the inside out. You don’t need to have it all figured out before you come to Him. By faith, reach out to the One who created you and loves you. Coming to the end of ourselves and surrendering gives God the opportunity to step in and do what we can’t: the impossible.

Prayer

Father, I run into Your arms today. Thank You for every divine appointment You have ever created for me. Thank You for loving me. Thank You for sending Your Son, Jesus, to be hope for me—my everlasting hope and my reward. Lord, I receive Your gift. I accept Your Son as my Savior and Lord. I call on His name now, Jesus Christ, and invite Him to live in my heart for eternity. I open my life to You. Order my steps and use me as a vessel for Your presence to bring hope to others. God, bring me to my knees; give me eyes to see and ears to hear what You are doing and saying. This is the hour for revival. Fill me with Your Spirit and make my life a witness to those around me. I long to drink from the living water You gave to the woman at the well, the well that never runs dry. Touch me and make me whole. Fill me with the fire of the Holy Spirit and draw others to Yourself through me. In Jesus’ mighty name I pray, amen.
