There is only one hope

Greetings:
Has life or is life now surrounding you with an overwelming feeling of hopelessness.
When this happens there is a feeling of being  powerless, desperate, frustrated and even angry. It appears the situation looks hopeless and there’s no way out – it’s a scary place to be.
Hang on help is already here. In God we have true hope.
What you are thinking is a lie, a deception created by evil demonic spirits meant for destruction, not life.
The biblical perception of hope is a fixed expectation based on the promises of God in His Word. It is hope that comes from outside of us. This kind of hope is not based on what we know or do. It is based on who we know - Christ.
It is the guarantee that our expectations based on God’s promises will be fulfilled.
Turning outward to God, in faith, leads to peace, calm and hope, even in the middle of a life storm in which the waves are higher than our reason can even understand.
Hebrews 6:19 says, “His hope is a strong and trustworthy anchor for our souls. It leads us through the curtain into God’s inner sanctuary.”
Fear and faith are opposites.        
Fear represents a lack of faith; faith represents a lack of fear.
Faith leads to hope; fear leads to despair.
Hope brings peace; fear eats it away.
Through faith we can have hope, even when the storm breaks and there looks there is no way out.
God is always there to give us hope.
When everything seems hopeless, God knows all about it and will bring joy out of it if we will wait patiently for Him.
In Psalm 147:11 NLT, we read: “Rather, the Lord's delight is in those who honor him, those who put their hope in his unfailing love.”
A true biblical understanding of hope will empower a person to have courage in the face of a seemingly hopeless situation. Without a doubt, God gives hope to the hopeless.
Be blessed.
