The power to hope and hopes source and blessings


Listen Later

Now the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that ye may abound in hope, through the power of the Holy Ghost. (Romans 15:13) *1/ The source of hope - "the God of hope." 2/ The power to hope - "through the power of the Holy Ghost. 3/ The blessings of hope - "all joy and peace in believing, abounding in hope."* **Sermon Summary:** The sermon centers on the biblical foundation of a genuine, eternal hope rooted in God alone, emphasizing that true hope is not derived from human effort, worldly circumstances, or fleeting promises, but from the Triune God, who is the source of all hope. It unfolds through three dimensions: the object of hope—God Himself, particularly in His redemptive work through Christ, the resurrection, and the promise of eternal glory; the power of hope—the Holy Spirit, who imparts joy, peace, and faith through the inspired Word, enabling believers to remember and trust in God's promises even in despair; and the blessings of hope—joy, peace, perseverance, and love, which are not self-generated but are fruits of the Spirit that sustain the believer through trials. The sermon calls for a renewed dependence on God, urging the faithful to anchor their souls in Christ, whose finished work guarantees a hope that is living, enduring, and ultimately fulfilled in heaven.
