Let Hope Arise!

Today I realize, once again, How great our Lord and God is. When you take a moment to gather all of the pieces of your life and aim them at Him in Worship, it’s amazing how all my situations and my issues suddenly appear small. He is God, Our God…I read that “The hour is coming, and has now come, when the true worshipers will worship Him in Spirit and in Truth, for He is seeking such to worship Him. (Jh 4.24)

In your situation, choose at this instance to focus on Him, the author and perfecter of your faith. He is the Shepherd of your soul. He declares that no longer shall the sun be your light, nor shall the moon be your light, that that He himself, the light of His glory shall be your light. This happens when you begin to give Him the worship that is due to Him. Ascribe to the Lord the glory that is due to Him, and you will see your situation begin to melt like wax!

“Turn your eyes upon Jesus, look full in His wonderful face, and the things of this earth will grow strangely dim in the light of His glory and His grace”…those are the words of an old hymn that you might remember. Let Hope Arise In you. The world is waiting for the God in you, may His love replace the fear in you!

     Isaiah 60:19-20

     "The sun shall no longer be your light by day, 
     Nor for brightness shall the moon give light to you;
     But the LORD will be to you an everlasting light,
     And your God your glory. 
     20 Your sun shall no longer go down,
     Nor shall your moon withdraw itself;
     For the LORD will be your everlasting light,
     And the days of your mourning shall be ended. 
     NKJV

Let Hope Arise...In You!

  1. So true. I have found myself fully and completely satisfied when I present myself in body and spirit to the Lord in worship. Absolute surrender during worship will result in a supernatural power to live this life righteously. A strengthening occurs everyday as you offer yourself as a living sacrifice. Those who seek to find their lives, must lose it. On with the worship...

  2. So true.Life's not worth living if you do not have hope.Thanks Tus.I've found that to be a true worshipper we must decrease and He increase.In fact to be effective in any work of the Master you need to do this.Be found at His feet- the Highest place of worship!Lose yourself in Him and He will find you. I believe if we can get to a place where it doesn't matter who is watching or listening,where we understand that our hearts are open before him and it matters more what He sees and not the people around us, we will go deeper still in WORSHIP...
    God bless you
