Find Hope In Hopelessness

Watch
Listen

In our current life right now, we could be facing many different situations or problems that are so real that cause us to feel hopeless. Feeling of hopelessness will make a person forget grace. However, the truth is in Christ, it is always hopeful. Jesus Christ has never stop working in our life or given up on us (how Naomi and us could feel many a times when we are locked in our emotions). It is all part of His plan. The key factor is whether we are able to see His hidden works in our hopelessness. We need pray against the feeling of hopelessness, to be sensitive towards His convictions, which will give us strength to resolute to follow God and see His hidden works. To the extent that one cannot have any hope in self but only in Christ.

“There is a way that appears to be right, but in the end it leads to death” <Prov 14:12>. How true this is! Nobody would ever deliberately choose a path of failure and destruction. However, often, it was those seemingly harmless and “inconsequential” decisions that set us on a direction towards a regretful end. Indeed, we face many decisions and choices everyday; and some choices can affect us for a lifetime. For someone who truly believes in God, the most important decision one can make, is to choose God, over and over again, despite trials and temptations in our earthly living. Our own best choices and efforts can lead to futility, but only what God promises and provides will endure. May God enable us to always choose right and choose Him!

Verses to Read: <Genesis 13:5-18>

1. The choice that leads to failure.

* Lot: Carnal Christians

Choose by own analysis (wisdom) and flesh.
Perspective different (opposite) from God.
Some decisions seem inconsequential, but set a certain (tragic) life direction.
Bad choices come with consequences.
How do we compare to Lot?

2. The choice that leads to success.

A choice based on faith.
– Lot trusted own eyes; Abram trusted God.
– Best/wisest choice: Choose God over good conditions.
Faith gives rise to simple heart.
Abram could make blessed choice because of his daily blessed living.
– Prayer-centered living
Blessed choice >>> Blessed consequences.
