Thousands of books and countless sermons have been written and preached about faith, but relatively few about hope. Yet you cannot have faith without hope because “faith is the substance of things hoped for” . Hope is hearing the music of the future while faith is dancing to it today.
One of the reasons for this lack of teaching is because we don’t really understand what hope is and how vital and powerful it is to a life that is worth living. The devil attacks our hope because he wants to destroy and undermine our faith. He knows that people filled with Godly hope are joyful and powerful.
For those who suffer from a sense of hopelessness it is one of the worst experiences in life. It’s like falling from a great height and waiting for the inevitable crash. On the way down dread and foreboding can become so awful you are almost glad when the bottom comes to get it over with. Such despair plays tricks with the mind. It doesn’t even matter if you are really falling – so long as you think you are, or believe it will be bad news from the doctor or you will lose your job or a thousand other fearful possibilities – life is sucked out of you.
This book will more than instruct you about hope – it will inspire you. It explains what true hope is, as opposed to false hope and hype, and how to release the power of hope which transforms us from living under our circumstances to living above them. Get ready for a life changing journey!
