HOPE

 It must have been devastating for the prophet Jeremiah to witness the fall of Jerusalem, the enslavement of his people, and the destruction of the holy Temple of God. He knew that the reason for this painful period in Israel's problematic history, was due to the gross sin and spiritual adultery of God's chosen people.
 Despite the inner turmoil that grieved his soul and the outer destruction he witnessed with his own eyes, this man was able to stand firm on his HOPE in God, knowing that His mercies are new every morning, the Lord is a faithful God and true to His Word and the same holds true today.
 As we see the systematic destruction of sound doctrine in Christianity today, as apostate teachers and false prophets infiltrate the churches of Christendom and seek to destroy the very foundation of our faith... and as we watch the shocking inhumanity of mankind towards others, and the unbelievable corruption that floods the corridors of governments,  our hearts also grieve.. as we witness this painful period in our own problematic history.
​ But like Jeremiah, we know in Whom we have believed and are persuaded that He is able to keep us and all that we have committed to Him. No matter what we may be called upon to suffer in this life.
 God is indeed faithful to His Word which cannot be broken.
“The LORD is my portion,” says my soul, “Therefore I hope in Him!”

Our United Prayer:
Heavenly Father, there are times when it seems that we are alone as we face life's difficulties, mourn over the spiritual decline that is overtaking the Church today, and grieve to see the shocking evil that is saturating the world. Thank You, Lord, that we are not alone, but are many of remnant of believers who put our HOPE in You and desire to do Your will. Thank You that Your mercies are new every morning and that You are building up Your church to Your praise and glory. In Jesus' name we pray, AMEN.
