This sermon is a call to return to the power of the Gospel. Carry the power of the Gospel in your Christian walk. You may not be where you want to be in life, but don’t be discouraged. Ground your confidence in the promise of God. God is not unjust to forget you. He will not overlook you. Don’t respond to feelings of discouragement with trying harder to get God’s attention. A promise is not earned, it is given. What are you confident in? Promise must be met with faith. A promise doesn’t only mean a change in a present. Set your hope on eternity. Cultivate your focus on Christ. What do you set your purpose in? You can’t go on in the life of faith with someone else’s confidence. The concern is that if your confidence is in some earthly thing, you will give up and quit. We are all prone to this temptation so the writer of the Hebrews encourages us to not give up! Realign your heart to the promise. Assume the future promise as your own. The promise is greater than you. Everything has its greatest fulfillment in Christ. Do you have fears or doubts about the promise? The promise is that Christ died for us, and that we are heirs with Christ. We can have objective hope, not sentimental optimism. It is impossible that God should lie so we can have confidence and strong consolation in what God has promised us. God has promised us life in Christ now, and eternal life. Believe and rest in the promise. Go to the cross for refuge. Let the provision of Christ fill your heart and redefine you. This hope of the promise is greater than our fears and failures. We do not walk alone. Christ is walking with us, and we have fellowship with our brothers and sisters to walk with us.
