Romans 5:5 (NIV)
And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.
Suffering leads to perseverance
Hope does not put us to shame
Romans 9:33
As it is written:
“See, I lay in Zion a stone that causes people to stumble
and a rock that makes them fall,
and the one who believes in him will never be put to shame.”
Perhaps some of you got a very good deal to sign on the dotted line. Pray together with your spouse or get Godly advise from the Lord. Do not act hastily
Don’t be indifferent but don’t act hastily
Pray in the Holy Spirit.
Trust the Lord.
If God opens the door of opportunities for you, who can shut?
Put your trust in Him
Don’t be hasty when it comes to deals
Romans 5:6-8
You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous person, though for a good person someone might possibly dare to die. But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
God demonstrates His ℓσνє in the present indicative
The cross of Jesus Christ is outside time
You may be asking Lord, do you still ℓσνє me. Do you still care?
He demonstrated 2000 years ago and will continue to demonstrate His ℓσνє for us. While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
What we have as believers in Christ is not ordinary, is extraordinary
Revelation brings result
Partake out of revelation, not desperation
God promised in His word, so it shall be
Partake holy communion in remembrance of the Healer, not the healing
Pursue the Healer not the healing
When you partake of the holy communion, eat it fresh!
Why does our bodies like the fresh food?
Fresh roasted lamb which speaks of the Lord Jesus Christ
New and living way
Freshly slain
Eat the holy communion fresh.
Our Lord Jesus Christ is the Lamb that was slain
He was slain from the foundation of the world.
Our names are written in the book of Life
While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
We never go beyond Christ crucified
Never get familiar with righteousness by faith
Never get familiar with the ways of God
Get intimate with Him
Romans 13:8
Love Fulfills the Law
Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another, for whoever loves others has fulfilled the law.
The Word of God is always fresh.
How you come to a place where there is hope that does not put you to shame?
Colossians 1:27-28
To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.
He is the one we proclaim, admonishing and teaching everyone with all wisdom, so that we may present everyone fully mature in Christ.
Christ live in us through the Person of Holy Spirit.
God is 3 in 1. 3 yet 1.
Holy Spirit is here to glorify Me
Christ lives in us through the Holy Spirit.
Christ who lives in you is the hope of all glory.
He is the One we proclaim.
Not man, or man’s effort.
Let us proclaim His name boldly without apology
Living Hope because He is a Living Saviour.
1 Peter 1:3
Praise to God for a Living Hope
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,
We have a living Hope
A living confident joyful expectation of good things to come because we serve a living Saviour.
Christianity is a relationship with a living God
Even when you are all alone, you are never alone.
Enjoy His presence. Practise His presence
In the presence of God is fullness of joy
1 Peter 1:13
Living Before God Our Father
Therefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and rest your hope fully upon the grace that is to be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;
Hope perfectly!
Rest our hope fully on His grace
Whenever Jesus is unveiled, we can hope perfectly
His hope never put us to shame.
