Message for November 13, 2022 from Pastor Shirley

A sure thing – have you heard someone say that?  Sure-thing definition -“An outcome that is certain or assured; a certainty”.                          
We are living in uncertain times.  As Believers we live by faith not by sight.  Hebrews 11 tells that faith is the substance of our hope.  Faith is what underlies the Christian hope. Hope is powered by faith.  Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God.  The more we know and understand His will, which is His Word faith increases and hope will grow stronger.                                                   
No matter the uncertainty in the world around us, the one sure thing – we have certain hope in the midst of uncertainty.  As Believers we are never without hope.  Jesus is hope and he lives in us and through us.

“But those who wait for the Lord [who expect, look for, and hope in Him] shall change and renew their strength and power; they shall lift their wings and mount up [close to God] as eagles [mount up to the sun]; they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint or become tired.”  Isaiah 40:31
