Episode 387: Hope

Today's Prayer Meditation is on Hope

I am blessed because I trust in you. All of my hope is in you, Father.

You have great plans for me; plans for good and not for evil, plans for a future and a hope.

So I am strong, courageous and unafraid, because you go with me. You will not leave me or forsake me. 

My heart takes courage as I wait on you, Father. For what do I wait? My hope is in you. You are my hope, my trust. And you have been from my youth. I will hope continually and praise you yet more and more.

You are my hiding place and my shield; I hope in your word.

My hope is not deferred, because it is secure in you. My fulfilled desires are like a tree of life. I look forward with great expectation to the future, my hope will not be cut off.

I seek your wisdom in scriptures, written for my instruction. Through endurance and through the encouragement of your word, I have hope. In hope I rejoice. I am patient in my trials and constant in my prayers to you, Father. 

I hear your word, and through it comes faith. Faith is the assurance, the title deed of the things that I hope for. It is the conviction of things not seen. Your word is all the proof I need.

So in faith, I wait for you, and you renew my strength. I mount up with wings like an eagle, I run and I do not grow weary. I walk and I do not faint.

It is through my hope in you, that I was saved. Even when things may not look like it, I still hope. Hope that is seen isn't hope. I don't hope for what I can already see, but for what I do not yet see in the physical realm, and I wait for it with patience.

Blessed are you, Father of my Lord Jesus Christ. According to your great mercy, you caused me to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus from the dead.

I rejoice in hope of your glory. More than that, I rejoice even in my trials, because I know that that produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope will not put me to shame, because your love has been poured into my heart through Holy Spirit who you have given me. 

You chose to make know to me how great are the riches of your glory, the mystery of Christ in me, the hope of glory.

I am not moved or shaken by bad news, my heart is firm, trusting in you. Your report is the one I choose to believe.

I do not stop giving thanks. You have given me the Spirit of wisdom and revelation so that I may know you better. The eyes of my heart have been enlightened so that I may know the hope to which you have called me, the riches of your glorious inheritance, and your incomparably great power and mighty strength for me because I believe.

I will bless you at all times; your praise shall continually be in my mouth. My soul makes its boast in you alone. I magnify you and exalt your name. I sought you and you answered me and delivered me from all my fears. I look to you and I am radiant, my face will never be ashamed. You saved me out of all my troubles. Your angles encamp around me. I have tasted and seen that you are good. And I am blessed because I take refuge in you. I place my hope in you, and I lack no good thing.

So be it.

Until next time, be blessed and be a blessing.
