The Gospel of Matthew 5:3

Hopelessness plagues most people at some point or another. It isn't reserved for a select few. Even many of our honored Biblical heroes suffered from a lack of hope from time to time. Tony Evans shares thoughts on how to have hope and overcome despair in this short reading plan.

“I heard a friend of mine say in his prayer, ‘Lord, if we don’t have a used-to-be story, then we don’t have a changed life.’” I quoted these words in a devotional several years ago and was reminded of them today. Let me share my own used-to-be story and maybe you will connect your own life with it.

How do you choose to live? Where do you hide for safety and trust? I pray these guided biblical meditations will help you decide to live a life surrendered to the protection of God. Choosing to live an abundant life. Choosing to live a life shying away from pride and seeking humility, wanting to share in the sufferings of Christ. Choosing to live for the glory of God!

Praying through scripture is a great way to refresh your prayer life. This 3-day plan centres on God's heart for a hurting world and offers practical ways to pray through His word.
