HOPE AND PEACE

“May every sunrise bring you hope. May every sunset bring you peace.”

After reading that I looked up “hope” and “peace” in the concordance at the end of my Bible.

A. HOPE

Hope and Peace

Hope and Peace

– First Timothy 4:9,10 “This is a trustworthy saying that deserves full acceptance (and for this we labour and strive), that we have put our hope in the living God, who is the Saviour of all men, and especially of those who believe.”

I have put my HOPE in the living God.

–  First Timothy 6:17 “Command those who are rich in this present world not to be arrogant nor to put their hope in wealth, which is uncertain, but to put their hope in God, who richly provides us with everything for our enjoyment.”

B. PEACE

– Ephesians 2:14,15 “For he himself is our peace, who has made the two one and has destroyed the barrier, the dividing wall of hostility, by abolishing in his flesh the law with its commandments and regulations.”

The Lord Jesus Christ is my PEACE.

My hope comes from God and my peace comes from God, who created the sun.

“God made two great lights – the greater light to govern the day and the lesser light to govern the night.” – Genesis 1:16
