Hope

 Romans 12:12 (KJV)
“12 Rejoicing in hope; patient in tribulation; continuing instant in prayer”
If there be any hope at all, recognize it and celebrate it, the next step is faith. Actually, hope can save us, “For we are saved by hope: but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for? But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it” (Romans 8:24-25). Faith accommodates hope. We must picture in our hearts what we c...annot see in the natural. The supernatural cannot work for us until we give it something to work for.
“While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal” (2 Corinthians 4:18). Picturing those things in the supernatural is framed by the Word of God. To have what the Scripture tells us begins with seeing ourselves with it.
Once again, faith accommodates those things we hope for. What is eternal? Those are the things we should be looking at; those are the things we should be hoping for. “If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory” (Colossians 3:1-4).
Abraham called those things forth that were not as though they were, that was hope in action; He knew how to celebrate his hope. God said things to Him then he pictured it in his mind, captured in his heart, and his faith accommodated it with every step he took.
Jesus is our “hope of glory.” Can you picture it? Then celebrate it!
