What Is Hope?

How To Hope Again

1. Hope Requires Trust

2. Hope is anchored to

something unseen. 

3. Hope is found in a

relationship with God

Hope is not...

Wishful Thinking 

Blind Optimism

Ambitious Goals 

‭‭

[10] But the angel said to them, "Do 

not be afraid. I bring you good 

news that will cause great joy for

all the people.

Luke 2:10 (NIV)

[12] Hope deferred makes the 

heart sick, 

but a longing fulfilled is a tree 

of life. 

Proverbs 13:12 (NIV)

[15] where then is my hope --

who can see any hope for me?

Job 17:15 (NIV)

[6] We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to our own way; and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all.

Isaiah‬ ‭53:6‬ ‭(NIV‬‬)

[8] We do not want you to be uninformed, brothers and sisters, about the troubles we experienced in the province of Asia. We were under great pressure, far beyond our ability to endure, so that we despaired of life itself. 

2 Corinthians 1:8 (NIV)

[1] Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. 

Hebrews 11:1 (NIV)

[14] As for me, I will always have hope; I will praise you more and more.

Psalms 71:14 (NIV)

[19] We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure. It enters the inner sanctuary behind the curtain, 

Hebrews 6:19 (NIV)

[18] Against all hope, Abraham in hope believed and so became the father of many nations, just as it had been said to him, "So shall your offspring be."

Romans 4:18 (NIV)

[11] Why, my soul, are you downcast? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise him, my Savior and my God. 

Psalms 42:11 (NIV)

[17] For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. 

2 Corinthians 4:17 (NIV)

[18] So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. 

2 Corinthians 4:18 (NIV)

[13] while we wait for the blessed hope -- the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ. 

Titus 2:13 (NIV)

[13] I pray that God, the source of hope, will fill you completely with joy and peace because you trust in him. Then you will overflow with confident hope through the power of the Holy Spirit. 

Romans 15:13 (NLT)

[31] but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. 

Isaiah 40:31 (NIV)

The Gift Of God

“He became a zombie. He refused to do 

any work and he rejected all offers of 

food and encouragement. He simply lay 

in his cot, sucking his thumb. In a 

matter of weeks he was dead. I would 

guess if there was a one word cause of 

death; hopelessness."

There’s no question about it: The human spirit

needs hope to survive and thrive. Since my 

early years as a physician, I learned that 

taking away hope is, to most people, like 

pronouncing a death sentence. They’re 

already hard-pressed will to live can be

paralyzed, and they may give up and die.”

- Dr. Arnold Hutschnecker
