Words Of Encouragement

Hope! Hope! Hope!
Believe! Believe! Believe!

I would have you to hope against hope; to have strong faith; to stagger not through unbelief. Be fully persuaded that what I have promised unto you, I will surely accomplish and perform. I have given you specific promises. I have spoken them to you numerous times, and they have been confirmed numerous times by others.

My blessings are upon you. You are becoming discouraged. That what I have promised, that will I do. But I say unto you, my child, all that I have spoken unto you, that will I do.

I have been pruning you and preparing you. In the solitude and isolation of your prayer closet will you find new strength in me, and fresh hope to believe the words I have spoken unto you.

Keep your eyes fixed upon me, and not upon the situations and problems around you and with you that have pressed you beyond measure. This pressing has accomplished a purifying within you. Now, I will fill you with the oil of my spirit, and with joy and gladness. I will give you a fresh touch and anointing from me, and your joy will be restored.

Hope! Hope! Hope!
Believe! Believe! Believe!

in him,
