Steadfast Hope

Steadfast Hope

We all need HOPE in these extraordinary times. These short video devotions are meant to encourage us to look to the Steadfast Hope we have in Jesus. In Hebrews 6:17-19 Jesus is described as the hope set before us and the anchor of our souls. There, we who have fled for refuge in Him are encouraged to hold fast to this hope that is sure and steadfast. When the Bible uses the word hope, it does not mean mere wishful thinking. Rather, hope in the Scripture means a confident assurance that God is presently at work for His glory and for our good as we look expectantly to the future. The hope we have is a settled trust in the unwavering faithfulness of God. We have a strong confidence, that cannot be shaken or moved because of what Jesus has accomplished.

Remember His track record and then rely upon Him.

Why would God allow a global pandemic? Jesus gives us at least one reason in Luke 13:1-5 for why suffering and evil are in the world.
