GOD'S WORD GAVE HOPE TO ABRAHAM : Look at what Abraham did when there was no hope. "As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations, before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were. Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations, according to that which was spoken, so shall thy seed be .(Romans 4:17--18). When there was no hope, Abraham believed in hope. There are people today who have no hope medically. Doctors have done all they can do. When the doctor says there is no hope, do what Abraham did: go to the word of God and get supernatural hope. Abraham decided to agree with God. That's what we are doing when we make a decision to confess the Word of God. We are coming over to God's point of view which is not a worldview. By saying what God declares about us. Some might say, "There is no hope, so you might as well give up." You can always go to the Word of God and get some hope. I don't care if it's physical, financial or spiritual. When your situation seems to be hopeless, go to the Word of God. God's Word is hope for you. Hope here's a goal setter. Let me put it to you this way, if you have no hope then you have nothing for faith to give substance to. You must have a goal. If you don't set any goals, or if you don't know where you are going, then how will you know when you get there ? How long will it take you to get there ? You don't know where you are going, and you don't know how to get there, but a goal gives directions. Faith is the substance of things hoped for. There must be some direction Of Faith. Some Have Said, "Well, I'm just waiting on God. I'm believing God." Some of those people have been waiting for years, and they haven't done anything. They are not waiting on God--- However, God has been waiting on them. They have made a decision by doing nothing. When there was no hope, Abraham decided to believe in hope. He made a decision to believe God's Word. That is where his hope came from--- the Word of God. Don't try to use faith where hope should be, and don't try to use hope where faith should be. Hope has no substance. Faith is the substance of the things hoped for. So there must be faith and hope. They are partners. They go together. Faith is the substance or the divine energy of God. It comes by hearing and by hearing God's Word. It is the substance of things desired. We must learn to sow the seed of God's Word into the heart or the spirit of mankind. Words are seeds. When we speak the Word of God or the words of the devil and the world, you are sowing seeds. However, the promises of God--- should be sewn into our hearts or the spirit, and it springs forth and grow up: just as the words of the devil and the world. First the blade, then the ear, after that the full corn in the ear . In (Mark 4:28), it was established by Jesus that the heart or the spirit of man is the production center. Jesus called it the soil.
