Hope Beyond Reason

Even when there was no reason for hope,

Abraham kept hoping—believing that he would become the father of many nations.

For God had said to him, “That’s how many descendants you will have!”

Romans 4:18 (NLT)

Are you facing a situation that seems hopeless?

Is there something that you are trusting God for--a promise you are claiming--

and it doesn't seem like it's ever going to really happen?

Abraham was in the same predicament.

God had promised Abraham that we would be the father of many nations.

The only problem was that both Abraham and his wife, Sarah, were well beyond child-bearing years.

Abraham didn't have any natural reason to hope.

There was not way, in his way of thinking, for God's promise to happen.

But notice what the Scripture says about this:

Even when there was no reason for hope,

Abraham kept on hoping.

He chose to have an attitude of faith and expectancy,

and God was faithful to Abraham and fulfilled His promise!

What is it that you are going through today?

No matter how hopeless your situation appears to be,

put your hope in God!

He promises to never forsake you.

He alone is the one, true and faithful God!

When you hope beyond reason, you will see His promises fulfilled in every area of your life!

Have a blessed & powerful day!
