Hollywood Prayer Network On HopeSample

RENEWED BY HOPE

"Darkness comes. In the middle of it, the future looks blank. The temptation to quit is huge. Don't. You are in good company... You will argue with yourself that there is no way forward. But with God, nothing is impossible. He has more ropes and ladders and tunnels out of pits than you can conceive. Wait. Pray without ceasing. Hope." John Piper

PRAY: Lord, thank You for giving me strength each day. Help me to hope completely in You so that I will soar on wings like eagles. I need Your help to keep me from growing weary or getting faint. I know that life is hard but I want to learn to hope in YOU in order to soar. I cry out to You today to show me how to put ALL of my hope in You and not in me, other people, or my circumstances. In Jesus' name, AMEN.

REFLECT:  How would your life change by putting all of your hope in God, in Jesus, and in the Holy Spirit? Do you ever feel like you are soaring on wings like eagles? What would that be like? Do you believe it's possible? God tells us that it is so. What do you need to do to experience that?

ACT: Evaluate the areas of your life where you are weary, or where you are growing faint. It could be because you don't have your hope in the Lord. Choose to focus on one area where you want to soar - regardless of the circumstances - and choose what you need to do to experience that freedom that only comes from hoping in the Lord. How thrilling it will be to soar through life as if on wings of eagles!
