How To Have Hope In Hopeless Times

We can do without a lot of things in this life, but hope is not one of them.

Hope changes the atmosphere of everything.

Without hope, you are left with discouragement, doubt, and eventually depression.

Howard Hendricks said, "Discouragement is the anesthetic the devil uses on a person just before he reaches in and carves out his heart."

Those are strong but true words.

No matter what you are facing in this life, if you know Jesus as your real and personal Savior no situation or circumstance is hopeless.

The battle for hope is one that you definitely want to one and one that you cannot afford to lose.

In this message, Hutch Matteson shares 6 Principles found in Romans 4 verses 19-21 which reveal how we can have hope in hopeless times.

Principle 1: You have to face the facts. (Romans 4 verse 19)

Principle 2: You have to deal with your doubts. (Romans 4 verse 20. plus Matthew 14 verses 29-31)

Principle 3: You have to ponder the promises of God. (Romans 4 verse 20, plus Number 23 verse 19)

Principle 4: You have to fortify your faith. (Romans 4 verse 20)

Principle 5: You have to give all the glory to God. (Romans 4 verse 20, plus Hebrews 11 verse 6)

Principle 6: You have to completely trust n the character of God. Romans 4 verse 21)

Where to Find Hope in Hopeless Times was filmed at a local studio rather than in front of our live men's group Bible study as a precaution during COVID-19 coronavirus crisis. Teaching Pastor and One Thing Ministries board member, Hutch Matteson, delivered the message.
