But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.
I Thessolonians 5: 8 (KJV)
To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:
Colossians 1:23 (KJV)
By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in the hope of the glory of God.
Romans 5:2 (KJV)

Romans 15:13

Ephesians 1:18 (KJV)

Psalm 71:14
Happy is he that hath the God of Jacob for his help, whose hope is in the Lord His God.
Psalm 146:5 (KJV)
Our hope is not in the very construct
of hope. Our hope is not in the flimsy
hope of humanity. Our hope is not in
the grace filled blessings that he mercifully
bestows on all of us. No our hope is in He
who has made us Holy, divine, royal, redeemed
and righteous, not by any deeds we have done
but because of the precious cross of Jesus
Christ, our Savior, Lord, friend and King.
To be sure, our hope is not in this ever
darkening, sin filled wicked world! For all
that is in the world passeth away. Our golden,
glittering, glorious hope is in Jesus Christ,
Savior to all the world. Yes indeed our triumphant,
victorious hope is only found in the incomprable
Lion and lamb, Jesus Christ, our Savior and Lord!
For our steadfast and constant source is only found
in the person of Jesus Christ who is ceaselessly infinite,
omniscient, omnipresent, omnipotent, the great
I AM, our Creator who knit us together in our
Mother’s womb, who knows us better then we
know ourselves. For the author of our lives knows
when to fill us with hope filled blessings, and
when to send storms and trials to strengthen
our faith. For He is our Master and Lord, our
sutainer, and the author and source of all our
hopes and dreams. For the precious person
of Jesus Christ is our perpetual, light and
treasure filled, triumphant, magnificent,
divine, Holy, ever flowing source of incessant,
unremitting, everlasting, indefatigable hope!
