Hope is a
feeling of expectation,
00:00:31.16\00:00:33.63
a desire for a
certain thing to happen,
00:00:33.66\00:00:36.10
a lot of people pray for
a certain thing to happen
00:00:36.13\00:00:39.03
but it doesn't happen exactly
the way they hoped it would.
00:00:39.07\00:00:42.07
For instance, they
may have to go through
00:00:42.10\00:00:44.04
some muckety-muck to
reach their expected outcome,
00:00:44.07\00:00:47.64
that thing that
they so hoped for.
00:00:47.68\00:00:50.11
But to remind you,
Romans 8:28, reads like this,
00:00:50.15\00:00:54.22
"And we know that God
causes all things to work
00:00:54.25\00:00:56.79
together for good
to those who love God,
00:00:56.82\00:00:59.29
to those who are called
according to His purpose."
00:00:59.32\00:01:03.93
Now that's not a
verse I typically think
00:01:03.96\00:01:06.26
of when I'm looking for
hope, because it has a hint
00:01:06.29\00:01:10.17
of an uh-oh, why
would God have to cause
00:01:10.20\00:01:13.50
something to cause to
work together for good?
00:01:13.54\00:01:16.64
If there's any
question or doubt,
00:01:16.67\00:01:18.57
I'm for bailing
on the situation.
00:01:18.61\00:01:21.14
But God understands and
He's going to work it out.
00:01:21.18\00:01:24.61
We just have to hold on to hope.
00:01:24.65\00:01:27.18
We serve the same God
00:01:27.22\00:01:28.72
who was with
Daniel in the lions' den,
00:01:28.75\00:01:31.09
who is with the Hebrew
children in the fiery furnace.
00:01:31.12\00:01:34.42
I'm sure that's not what
any of them signed up for,
00:01:34.46\00:01:37.33
hoped for.
00:01:37.36\00:01:38.83
They just wanted to serve God.
00:01:38.86\00:01:42.16
But storms
happen, and death is real.
00:01:42.20\00:01:46.23
God can calm the storm,
and He has defeated the grave.
00:01:46.27\00:01:51.07
So even when
things do look scary,
00:01:51.11\00:01:53.68
hopeless, God is much
bigger than any circumstance
00:01:53.71\00:01:58.38
that can come against us.
00:01:58.41\00:02:00.25
If you have lost hope,
during these challenging times,
00:02:00.28\00:02:04.05
let's spend some time
asking God to restore that hope.
00:02:04.09\00:02:07.59
Father God, You are
so big and so powerful,
00:02:12.66\00:02:17.80
there is nothing
that you can't handle.
00:02:17.83\00:02:21.27
We know that during these times
00:02:21.30\00:02:23.04
people are looking for something
00:02:23.07\00:02:25.54
to give them hope.
00:02:25.57\00:02:27.21
So we ask that You
would give us the opportunity
00:02:27.24\00:02:30.05
to share the truth
of Your love with them.
00:02:30.08\00:02:33.55
I ask that
lives would be changed
00:02:33.58\00:02:36.28
and Your light would
shine through all of us
00:02:36.32\00:02:38.99
so bright that
people all across the nation
00:02:39.02\00:02:42.16
would turn to You
because You are our hope.
00:02:42.19\00:02:47.13
Thank You, Lord,
for being the great,
00:02:47.16\00:02:50.10
big loving God that You are.
00:02:50.13\00:02:52.43
And it's in
Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
00:02:52.47\00:02:55.70
Dear Heavenly Father,
00:02:58.87\00:03:00.41
thank You for the
opportunity to come to You
00:03:00.44\00:03:02.78
with our praises and our needs.
00:03:02.81\00:03:05.71
You are an awesome God
that cares for each one of us
00:03:05.75\00:03:09.28
that is
listening this broadcast.
00:03:09.32\00:03:12.25
Thank You for
the plan of salvation
00:03:12.29\00:03:14.49
and for Your Son that gave
us forgiveness for our sins,
00:03:14.52\00:03:19.13
and the hope of
eternal life with You.
00:03:19.16\00:03:22.60
We long for the day that
we can see You face to face,
00:03:22.63\00:03:26.97
to talk to You
as our best friend.
00:03:27.00\00:03:30.34
And we want to sit
at Your feet and hear
00:03:30.37\00:03:33.41
about Your amazing
love all over the universe.
00:03:33.44\00:03:38.11
Thank you, God.
00:03:38.15\00:03:39.55
Thank you, Jesus.
00:03:39.58\00:03:41.02
Thank you, the Holy
Spirit, for all You have done
00:03:41.05\00:03:44.75
for what You are doing right now
00:03:44.79\00:03:47.76
and for all that You
will do in the future.
00:03:47.79\00:03:51.56
But today, we thank You God
00:03:51.59\00:03:54.73
for the hope of eternal life.
00:03:54.76\00:03:57.27
Dear Heavenly Father,
00:04:00.34\00:04:02.04
I want You to please be with us
00:04:02.07\00:04:05.04
as we face this time of trouble,
00:04:05.07\00:04:07.14
this time in which we don't know
00:04:07.18\00:04:09.64
what's happening
in this world, Lord.
00:04:09.68\00:04:11.91
It's easy, Lord, to
fill our mind with negative
00:04:11.95\00:04:14.72
things with negative
ideas, to watch negative things.
00:04:14.75\00:04:19.12
And I want You to
help us change our mind,
00:04:19.15\00:04:22.79
our spirit, and help us
to make the right choices,
00:04:22.82\00:04:25.93
Lord, help us to find
hope in Your Word every day.
00:04:25.96\00:04:31.07
Help us to feel our hearts
00:04:31.10\00:04:33.94
and minds with You
that we may be full of hope
00:04:33.97\00:04:37.77
and that others can
see that You live in us
00:04:37.81\00:04:40.91
and that You are
shining in our lives
00:04:40.94\00:04:43.24
regardless of the
situation we're living in.
00:04:43.28\00:04:46.78
Help us to give hope to others,
00:04:46.82\00:04:48.45
Lord, because
You are our provider
00:04:48.48\00:04:51.55
and You know Your plans for us
00:04:51.59\00:04:54.76
because You have a path
that is directed to You, Lord.
00:04:54.79\00:04:59.86
And as we face this time, Lord,
00:04:59.89\00:05:02.10
continue to fill me up with hope
00:05:02.13\00:05:06.13
and give me a
tangible reminder today
00:05:06.17\00:05:08.94
and always that You
are with me every day.
00:05:08.97\00:05:12.47
Thank You, Lord,
for listening to me
00:05:12.51\00:05:14.58
and helping me.
00:05:14.61\00:05:16.34
Thank You for restoring my soul.
00:05:16.38\00:05:18.21
In Jesus' name, amen.
00:05:18.25\00:05:20.02
How great the chasm that lay
00:05:24.69\00:05:29.16
Between us How high
00:05:29.19\00:05:32.73
The mountain I could not climb
00:05:32.76\00:05:38.53
In desperation,
00:05:38.57\00:05:42.20
I turned to heaven
00:05:42.24\00:05:45.54
And spoke your name
00:05:45.57\00:05:48.31
Into the night
00:05:48.34\00:05:52.71
Then through the darkness
00:05:52.75\00:05:56.08
Your loving kindness
00:05:56.12\00:05:59.05
Tore through the shadows
00:05:59.09\00:06:02.12
Of my soul
00:06:02.16\00:06:06.23
The work is finished
00:06:06.26\00:06:09.46
The end is written
00:06:09.50\00:06:13.07
Jesus Christ,
00:06:13.10\00:06:15.47
My living hope
00:06:15.50\00:06:20.54
Who could imagine
00:06:20.58\00:06:23.65
So great a mercy?
00:06:23.68\00:06:27.22
What heart could fathom
00:06:27.25\00:06:30.19
Such boundless grace?
00:06:30.22\00:06:33.89
The God of ages
00:06:33.92\00:06:36.93
Stepped down from glory
00:06:36.96\00:06:40.60
To wear my sin
00:06:40.63\00:06:43.37
And bear my shame
00:06:43.40\00:06:47.67
The cross has spoken,
00:06:47.70\00:06:50.97
I am forgiven
00:06:51.01\00:06:54.31
The King of kings
00:06:54.34\00:06:56.64
Calls me His own
00:06:56.68\00:07:01.42
Beautiful Savior,
00:07:01.45\00:07:04.89
I'm yours forever
00:07:04.92\00:07:08.82
Jesus Christ,
00:07:08.86\00:07:11.19
My living hope
00:07:11.23\00:07:16.16
Hallelujah, praise
00:07:16.20\00:07:20.27
The one who set me free
00:07:20.30\00:07:23.10
Hallelujah, death has lost
00:07:23.14\00:07:27.54
Its grip on me
00:07:27.58\00:07:29.64
You have broken every chain
00:07:29.68\00:07:33.18
There's salvation in your name
00:07:33.21\00:07:36.79
Jesus Christ,
00:07:36.82\00:07:39.42
My living
00:07:39.45\00:07:42.16
Hope
00:07:42.19\00:07:45.63
Our loving Heavenly Father,
00:07:50.20\00:07:52.40
when we need hope
00:07:52.43\00:07:53.84
there's one
place that we can go,
00:07:53.87\00:07:56.14
that we know that
we will receive hope.
00:07:56.17\00:07:59.07
And that's to You, Lord,
00:07:59.11\00:08:00.74
we come to You now for hope
00:08:00.78\00:08:03.45
and being able to
handle the challenges
00:08:03.48\00:08:05.41
that are coming our way today,
00:08:05.45\00:08:07.48
and the challenges
that will come our way
00:08:07.52\00:08:09.38
in the future.
00:08:09.42\00:08:11.22
And, Lord, we have a
hope in Jesus Christ,
00:08:11.25\00:08:14.62
we have a hope
in the resurrection,
00:08:14.66\00:08:16.32
we have a hope in eternal life.
00:08:16.36\00:08:18.66
And all of those
things are wonderful.
00:08:18.69\00:08:20.73
And we thank You for those.
00:08:20.76\00:08:22.76
Sometimes we
need immediate hope,
00:08:22.80\00:08:25.17
hope right now
00:08:25.20\00:08:26.53
in facing a
particular situation.
00:08:26.57\00:08:28.80
And that is what's
happening now, Lord,
00:08:28.84\00:08:30.57
we're asking for
hope of the moment.
00:08:30.61\00:08:33.71
So we ask for You
to please give it to us
00:08:33.74\00:08:36.21
now and always,
00:08:36.24\00:08:37.85
as we ask with a humble heart.
00:08:37.88\00:08:40.35
In Jesus' name, amen.
00:08:40.38\00:08:42.08
Dear Heavenly Father,
00:08:45.49\00:08:47.26
I thank You
00:08:47.29\00:08:48.62
that You have
promised in Your Word,
00:08:48.66\00:08:50.69
that You will give
hope to the hopeless
00:08:50.73\00:08:53.93
and be a friend
unto the friendless.
00:08:53.96\00:08:56.87
I thank You that
You are our hope,
00:08:56.90\00:09:00.17
our joy, our peace, our
true source of contentment.
00:09:00.20\00:09:05.47
I thank You that
everything we will ever need
00:09:05.51\00:09:08.54
is found in You.
00:09:08.58\00:09:10.35
I thank You,
Lord, for the promise
00:09:10.38\00:09:13.01
that You have
given us in Romans 15:13,
00:09:13.05\00:09:17.05
that declares,
00:09:17.09\00:09:18.65
"May the God of hope
fill you with all joy
00:09:18.69\00:09:21.89
and peace as you trust in Him
00:09:21.92\00:09:24.43
so that you may
overflow with hope,
00:09:24.46\00:09:27.40
by the power of
the Holy Spirit."
00:09:27.43\00:09:30.03
Thank You, Dear Father,
00:09:30.07\00:09:31.60
that our hearts and spirits
00:09:31.63\00:09:33.00
can be renewed
day by day in hope,
00:09:33.03\00:09:36.07
by the power of
Your Holy Spirit.
00:09:36.10\00:09:39.07
In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
00:09:39.11\00:09:44.68
Our Father, which art in heaven,
00:09:44.71\00:09:46.95
we thank You for the
hope in Your Son Jesus Christ,
00:09:46.98\00:09:50.42
who is the only
thing stronger than fear.
00:09:50.45\00:09:53.59
Give us the vision
of hope that we may grow
00:09:53.62\00:09:56.79
from strength to
strength, moment by moment
00:09:56.83\00:09:59.59
during this
pandemic that is hitting
00:09:59.63\00:10:02.43
our planet earth.
00:10:02.46\00:10:04.03
Keep us, O Lord, at Your side,
00:10:04.07\00:10:07.00
continue to rest
upon our soul, O Lord,
00:10:07.04\00:10:10.07
as the psalmist
said in Psalm 62:5,
00:10:10.11\00:10:14.21
"My soul, wait
thou only upon God,
00:10:14.24\00:10:17.58
for my expectation is from Him."
00:10:17.61\00:10:20.12
Continue to abide
with us and keep us,
00:10:20.15\00:10:23.28
O Lord, may we share Your love
00:10:23.32\00:10:25.75
of hope in Your Son
Jesus Christ to people
00:10:25.79\00:10:28.99
who are reaching out to
You in this time of need.
00:10:29.02\00:10:32.29
Thank You for Your amazing love.
00:10:32.33\00:10:34.60
In Jesus' name, amen.
00:10:34.63\00:10:36.46
Then came the morning
00:10:40.97\00:10:44.41
That sealed the promise
00:10:44.44\00:10:48.31
Your buried body
00:10:48.34\00:10:51.78
Began to breathe
00:10:51.81\00:10:55.18
Out of the silence,
00:10:55.22\00:10:58.85
The roaring lion
00:10:58.89\00:11:02.76
Declared the grave
00:11:02.79\00:11:05.16
has no claim on me
00:11:05.19\00:11:10.10
Jesus,
00:11:10.13\00:11:11.53
Yours is the victory
00:11:11.57\00:11:17.44
Oh, Hallelujah
00:11:17.47\00:11:21.54
Praise the one who set me free
00:11:21.58\00:11:25.05
Hallelujah, death has lost
00:11:25.08\00:11:29.72
Its grip on me
00:11:29.75\00:11:31.55
For You have broken every chain
00:11:31.59\00:11:35.22
There's salvation in Your name
00:11:35.26\00:11:38.89
Jesus Christ,
00:11:38.93\00:11:41.53
My living hope
00:11:41.56\00:11:46.60
Jesus Christ,
00:11:46.63\00:11:49.60
My living hope
00:11:49.64\00:11:54.91
Psalm 119:114 says,
00:11:58.01\00:12:01.15
"You are my hiding
place and my shield,
00:12:01.18\00:12:06.42
I hope in Your Word."
00:12:06.45\00:12:10.13
Jeremiah 17:7,
00:12:10.16\00:12:12.53
"Blessed is the man
who trusts in the Lord,
00:12:12.56\00:12:15.86
and whose hope is the Lord."
00:12:15.90\00:12:20.94
And Jeremiah 29:11,
00:12:20.97\00:12:23.27
"For I know the thoughts
that I think toward you,
00:12:23.30\00:12:25.87
says the Lord,
00:12:25.91\00:12:27.54
thoughts of peace

God, You remind us
over and over in Your Word,

00:12:43.06\00:12:45.69
and You draw us
close into Your presence.
00:12:45.73\00:12:49.56
You're the only place
00:12:49.60\00:12:50.93
we find refuge in
the storm surrounding us,
00:12:50.97\00:12:54.20

that is feeling hopeless,

God, I pray that
