Christian Devotional – October 3, 2016

Read Romans chapter 15

VERSE:

Romans 15:13–May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

TRUTH:

Hope, true hope, only comes from God. Only through Him can we truly find something to hope in. As we look at our lives, will we understand that only through Jesus can we truly experience joy, peace, and hope. What’s more, our hope isn’t just for ourselves, we are to overflow with hope so that others may be impacted by what they see in us and find themselves turning to the source of hope Himself. Are we hopeful in the Lord? Are we influencing others to have hope in Him as well?

RESPONSE:

Father, I know that my only hope is in You. I will praise You and trust You in all that I do. I cannot find anything else in this world that provides the same hope, joy, and peace that You give me freely. I thank You that You sustain me with Your hope and joy through the power of the Holy Spirit. Help me to impact those I am around through the power of the Holy Spirit.
