Pete’s Message:
Job 11:18 “Then you would trust [with confidence], because there is hope;
You would look around you and rest securely.
Psalm 130:5 I wait for the Lord, I expectantly wait, and in His word do I hope.
Psalm 16:9 Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices; my body also will rest secure,
1 Cor 13: 13 And now there remain: faith [abiding trust in God and His promises], hope [confident expectation of eternal salvation], love [unselfish love for others growing out of God’s love for me], these three [the choicest graces]; but the greatest of these is love.
Romans 15: 13 May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing [through the experience of your faith] that by the power of the Holy Spirit you will abound in hope and overflow with confidence in His promises.
Romans 15:13 (NLT): I pray that God, the source of hope, will fill you completely with joy and peace because you trust in him. Then you will overflow with confident hope through the power of the Holy Spirit.
