Why you need Hope and Faith in Your Life NOW

If you’re like most people in the world, worrying how you are going to make ends meet, worrying how you are going pay the bills, worrying about how you are going to afford paying for your children's educaton , worrying about your career goals , or your new home business, you are missing the central ingredient that you need for personal and professional fulfillment in learning how to succeed in life succeed in life:

Hope and Faith....

Don’t worry, I’m not going to preach to you and force upon you my “religious view-points , and Christian point of view which shape my values, and world view, through a Christian perspective. I make no apologies if my Christian Faith offends or disappoints you.

If you’re an agnostic, atheist, Jew, Muslim, Hindu, Budist or thousands of other differing faiths, I make no apologies for my Christian faith. My bible commands me to share my faith with the entire world which I am doing from my website. You can read about-me here. If the Lord our God should touch your heart as a believer, Praise Be to God, as I am but the messenger, the Lord is the message -called the living Word found in the bible.

Did you ever stop to think about the letters that comprise the word FAITH?

FELLOWSHIP:

Fellowship, is nothing more than worshiping and praising God through prayer. You don’t need a Priest, a Rabbi, or an Imam do communicate to God on your behalf, you-can communicate to the Lord our God directly in prayer. Seek out other fellow believers and fellowship with other believers so your faith in the Lord and grow.

First acknowledge your sinful state as a lost sinner, and ask for His forgiveness in believing in Him as your Lord and personal Savior. My question to you is this: What assurance do you have right now –that should you die tonight you will go to heaven?

What proof do you have? you wll go to heaven? Heaven and Hell are real destinations where everyone who has ever been born from Adam and Eve to the present will spend eternity based upon their belief in the Lord after their life is over.

The bible clearly states in Romans 3:23 “All have sinned and have fallen short of the Glory of God” John 3:16 states: "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, Or his only begotten Son that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

ADORATION:

Adoration is self explanatory but as Christian believers, we are too worship and adore our Lord our God for who HE is-the Creator of All. God is the Great IAM-Jesus Christ is the Great I AM.

Jesus Christ claimed to be the “I AM.” It is the personal name of the God of the Old Testament (Exodus 3:13-14). On several occasions it is recorded that Jesus used the “I AM” formula in attesting to His deity. He claimed to be the LORD God, Jehovah, Yahweh. The greatest of all the names for the Lord Jesus Christ is the “I AM.”

Deuteronomy 4:24 NIV states "For the LORD your God is a consuming fire, a jealous God. As believers we are commanded to believe only in the Lord God Himself-have no other gods but the Lord Jehovah who is Lord of ALL.

INTERSESSORY PRAYER:

How is your prayer life? Maybe this is just the element that is missing in your personal and professional life. As fellow Christian believers, we are required to pray to the Lord our God daily, and consistently.

I can say this, I do pray every day and my daily talk with the Lord is instrumental in helping me daily. Life is tough on a regular basis just living day in and day out, providing for your family.

I find tremendous comfort knowing that God is waiting-He is just waiting to hear your prayers too. One of my favorite bible verses that has tremendously helped me from when I was down, and it seemed like the weight of the entire world was on my shoulders, is 1 Peter 5-7: “Cast all your worries and cares upon HIM, for He Careth for you.” Commit to a consistent prayer life, and notice what changes you see in your life and how God responds and does answer prayers in His time and according to His will for your life.

THANKSGIVING:

Be joyous in all things, this is hard at times, I’ll admit, after all we are all human, however the power of prayer and the hope and faith that God does freely give for those who ask, is real and genuine and gives me hope.

As Christians we are too be joyous and glad in all things, does this mean you are to be happy when someone in your family is stricken ill, or when you suddenly lose your job you should be happy as a clam jumping up and down? No-one is happy when bad things happen to you-myself included here, but we are too be faithful trusting in God’s provision to turn the impossible into impossibilities in yours and my life.

This is where FAITH comes in, and you and your FAITH will grow as we are all tested at times. It’s called Christian maturity and growth. How can you and I ever grow if we are never tested from time to time…

HIS WILL:

What is God’s will, what is HIS will for you and your life? Only God knows the answer to this age old question. Your job is to seek HIS Will for your life, ask him to provide the discernment and wisdom in your life that you need so you can be doing what God has always intended for you to do in your life.

God did not make junk, HE made you with a specific purpose and has equipped you with specific tasks, that HE wants you to do. Sometimes, we find out that what we want to do in our lives, is not God’s plan for our lives, and we have to surrender all to gain all for his Glory.

Is it easy, no it is not, carrying God’s cross is never easy, but He will equip you with the Strength and Power that you need in living your life for Him. Trusting and Obeying the Lord regardless of your sitution is what the Christian faith is all about.

Remember: ”The only Unfulfilled Goals in Your Life are the Ones you Never Attempt”
