Hebrews 10:19-24

THE CONFESSION OF OUR HOPE
Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful. Hebrews 10:23, NIV

The truth of the Gospel is the acknowledgement of Jesus Christ as the only Saviour. Any confession other than this is an aberration. The hope professed by the Christians of old was the resurrection of the body and everlasting life. These people looked forward to a future with God and this influenced their living.

For hope to be hope, it must be kept alive by a believing heart. You have a duty to protect your confession of hope until it materialises in physical terms, delivering the dividends to you.

Hope disappears when there is no fertile ground for it to blossom. Hope must be nourished daily in prayers and reaffirmations. You are what you confess and your life is driven mostly by the confessions you make.

This is why what you hope for must reflect in your speech and life in general before they become actualised. Keep on confessing it and pray through till the desire translates to testimony.

Read Bible Through Passage: 1 Chronicles 23, 24; John 21

A man can no more take in a supply of grace for the future than he can eat enough for the next six months. We must draw upon God's boundless store of grace from day-to-day, as we need it. – D.L. Moody
