What Other King Would Share His Throne? Only The God of Hope!
by Tonja Taylor Hope is the light of life. When all seems dark and we feel dead and cannot breathe, our spirits within know that somehow, God, Who is good loves us anyway and will help us live again. He is our Blessed Hope. Awaiting and looking for the [fulfillment, the realization of our] blessed hope, even the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Christ Jesus (the Messiah, the Anointed One),--Titus 2:13, AMPC Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, 2 through whom we also have obtained our introduction by faith into this grace in which we stand; and we celebrate in hope of the glory of God. 3 And not only this, but we also celebrate in our tribulations, knowing that tribulation brings about perseverance; 4 and perseverance, proven character; and proven character, hope; 5 and hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.--Romans 5:1-5, NASB Jesus is our Hope. He is the Hope of nations. He is the God of Hope. He is the only Hope. He is so much more, but let's start there. God is holy. His Plan was that we have perfect fellowship with Him, but Adam and Eve messed it up and commited high treason by agreeing with the enemy against God (We probably would have done the same thing.). The world and all mankind forever was plunged into sin, born with the sin nature, and there was no rescue--until Jesus Christ, the Hope of the world, chose to give His life for all, and pay for the sins and abominations, transgressions and iniquities, for all people, for all time. Hallelujah! But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.--Romans 5:8, KJV You must be born again, by faith (HOPE through choosing to trust in; to believe in) in what the pure shed blood of Jesus did at the cross of Calvary, over 2,000 years ago. Do not be amazed that I said to you, ‘You must be born again.’--John 3:7, NASB It is the only way to Heaven. No works, or lack of doing wrong, will suffice. Only the spiritual Covering by believing in the precious Blood of Christ will work! You must simply agree with God that you need Him to forgive and cleanse you (and me, and all who will believe it and receive it) from all sin; all the ways you (and I) have not met the requirements of God the Father, Elohim the Creator and Sustainer of all life, Who is holy. Exalt the Lord our God And worship at His holy hill, For the Lord our God is holy.--Psalm 99:9, NASB The LORD is gracious and compassionate; slow to anger, and abounding in Love! Hallelujah! The Lord is gracious, and full of compassion; slow to anger, and of great mercy.--Psalm 145:8, KJV He does not want anyone to die and go to hell (which is eternal separation from God, Who is every good thing, and eternity in torment of body and soul!). 9 The Lord does not delay and is not tardy or slow about what He promises, according to some people’s conception of slowness, but He is long-suffering (extraordinarily patient) toward you, not desiring that any should perish, but that all should turn to repentance.--2 Peter 3:9, AMPC He is good and gracious, and He created and loves you. He wants to adopt you into His Royal Forever Family! All you have to do is say, "Dear God, please forgive me of every way I've done wrong. I agree with you that I need the blood of the LORD Jesus Christ, Your Son, to cleanse and cover my life. Jesus, please come into my heart and be my LORD and Savior. I accept you, and I thank you for this wonderful new life, where You will be with me always! Hallelujah!" When you pray these words and really mean it, a miracle happens! You are translated from the defeated and soon-ending kingdom of darkness that causes all the bad in this world, into the glorious, victorious Kingdom of Light of the LORD Jesus Christ, and seated with Him as a king and a priest, to rule and reigh with Him! What other king do you know who would share his throne?? He is a Gentleman. Please invite Him into your heart today and receive a new life! Therefore if any person is [ingrafted] in Christ (the Messiah) he is a new creation (a new creature altogether); the old [previous moral and spiritual condition] has passed away. Behold, the fresh and new has come!--II Corinthians 5:17, AMPC
