Romans 15:13
I pray that God, who gives hope, will bless you with complete happiness and peace because of your faith. And may the power of the Holy Spirit fill you with hope.
Amen! Today we get encouragement.
It can be easy to see only one side of faith—the sacrifice, the self-control, the letting go, or the doing without. Faith takes work. It can be difficult. But being faithful also opens the door to joy, peace, and so much more. In fact, it’s safe to say that true joy and lasting peace are found only through faith, and that joy comes from overflowing with hope through the power of the Holy Spirit.
Once we make the choice to trust God and take that step of faith, we move past the pre-step anxiety. The fear begins to loosen its grip, and we step into the joy God promises the faithful. This isn’t a shallow happiness—it’s a deep, steady joy that comes from knowing who holds the outcome.
Let’s move through these steps quickly and remain in the joy God provides. This joy is infectious. When we interact with people, they will notice. Seeing someone overflowing with hope through the Holy Spirit gives others confidence that life doesn’t have to be lived in constant fear, stress, or defeat.
0Stay faithful. Cling to the hope we have in the Lord. Let joy overflow in your heart until it pours into the lives of others. Overwhelming victory is already ours through Jesus. The battle you are facing right now has already been won by the Lord. If that’s not a reason for pure joy, I don’t know what is. Praise God!
Isaiah 55:12–13
[12] When you are set free, you will celebrate and travel home in peace. Mountains and hills will sing as you pass by, and trees will clap. [13] Cypress and myrtle trees will grow in fields once covered by thorns. And then those trees will stand as a lasting witness to the glory of the Lord.
