Anchored by a Living Hope | LUKE 2:36-38 | Rev. Dr. Samuel T. Koshy
Discover the power of living hope this season! In this video, we explore the inspiring story of Anna, the prophetess, from Luke 2:36-38, and uncover the secrets to a resilient faith. We often focus on the traditional nativity characters but miss the powerful example of hope found in Anna, who, despite years of waiting, never lost her faith.
Learn about:
● The Reason for Hope: We examine how Anna's devotion and anticipation for the redemption of Jerusalem reveals the true source of biblical hope, which is not based on fleeting feelings or desires, but on the eternal promises of God.
● The Resilience of Hope: Discover how Anna's life, marked by loss and adversity, demonstrates the endurance that comes from a living, dynamic relationship with God. True resilience is developed through hardship and a desire to continue to hang on and even thrive.
● The Reward of Hope: Explore how Anna's faithfulness was rewarded when she met Jesus, the embodiment of God's promises and the ultimate source of hope. Jesus' life, death and resurrection, prove that God's promises are true and can be trusted.
This video contrasts the world’s definition of hope with the biblical understanding of hope. It will help you understand that biblical hope is not just a feeling, but an expectation based on God's unwavering promises. We delve into how hope gives us strength to endure life's challenges and how it can be anchored in the person of Jesus Christ.
We are reminded that God’s hope is enduring, will never end, is eternal, will empower us, and cannot be frustrated. We have a promise-keeping God, whose word will never pass away.
Are you facing loneliness, disappointment, or rejection? Learn how to develop deep roots in God and how to look towards heaven. If you do not have a relationship with Jesus, this is an invitation to call on his name. Discover the "Strength for Today and Bright Hope for Tomorrow!".
