HOPE FOR THE FUTURE

Satan often attacks believers’ thoughts about their future with God.
He wants them to doubt God’s promises, to doubt whether they will really go to heaven after their death.
These thoughts can be extremely discouraging, and can take away our joy and assurance of faith.

“Take the helmet of salvation…”(Ephesians 6:17)

The helmet of salvation is placed on our heads because much of the combat takes place at this level. It is at the level of the head that thoughts, fears, doubts are born, that reflections are formed, that decisions are made. It is therefore to the head that many blows are struck.
If we wear the helmet of salvation, we surely protect our thoughts of hope for the future.
The joyful expectation of eternal life in the Lord’s presence and the assurance of God’s promises about new heavens and a new earth, give hope and the power to endure.
Let’s allow God’s salvation to fill us with hope and endurance again.
Christians are like the Israelites during their desert journey: the circumstances are sometimes hard, it is not always easy to keep going, but they continue because they know their final destination is worth it and God sustains them on their journey.
The helmet of salvation can give us the right perspective on life.

PRAYER:
Lord our God, grant us hope for our future.
It is in the precious name of your son Jesus Christ that we pray, Amen.
