1 Samuel 30:26-31

Despair can creep in right after a major victory, after we are mistreated or betrayed by those closest to us, or if we are running out of patience for something we're excited about. In this series, we'll cover such topics and how to step out of that despair by connecting with Jesus.

Any of you out there feel as though you are struggling to keep your head above water? Do you feel at any moment the waves of despair, chaos, or suffering will crash over you for the last time, breaking you, tossing you into the depths of the ocean floor? What are we to do in times such as these? “Be strong and courageous!” Remember: Our God is big and strong!

We have all experienced times when it feels like we are at a great loss. Perhaps it's the loss of a job, the loss of fervency in your relationship with God, the loss of material things etc. God's Word is our sure way to recover all. In this plan, we will discover the secret of how to "Pursue, Overtake and Recover all" that you lost in the previous season.

When you're in a season of tribulation where everything seems dark, hope gives you a choice. It's that inner hope that, even though you don't know how or when, God can do something.
