There Is Hope

Rev. 1:1
The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His servants—things which must shortly take place. And He sent and signified it by His angel to His servant John

Notice he did not say that they MIGHT come to pass.

This is our God, who stood on NOTHING and flung the world into existence by His Word.

Isa. 40:12
Who has measured the waters in the hollow of His hand, 
measured heaven with a span 
and calculated the dust of the earth in a measure? 
Weighed the mountains in scales 
and the hills in a balance?

Isa. 44:6
“ Thus says the LORD, the King of Israel, and his Redeemer, the LORD of hosts:
‘ I am the First and I am the Last; besides Me there is no God.

You will hear people say, “I don’t believe God exists.”

If you have a watch, it means there is a watchmaker.

The fact that you are LIVING, breathing, moving and you exist is proof that there is a people-maker.
You have a creator. This Jesus we serve is not a spineless, weak-kneed, jellyfish of a man with long hair and sandals.

We are not serving Mary’s baby boy or Joseph’s son.

We are serving the RESURRECTED KING of kings and Lord of lords who holds the keys of death and hell in His hands.

Let me quote Rod Parsley, “Do you see His long. lean, Galilean leg slipping over the back of a steaming, white stallion?”

Resurrected from the dead, Jesus kicked the end out of a borrowed tomb.

He has the nail prints on His flesh to prove He conquered death and hell by His sinless life, victorious blood and resurrection from the dead.

See in Rev. 19:12
His eyes were like a flame of fire, and on His head were many crowns. He had a name written that no one knew except Himself.

Why do we or why should we get happy about heaven? We have lots invested there.

I have my Mom/Dad and little brother and Edith’s parents and friends there.

O' this Jesus we serve fills me with HOPE.

Yours For Revival,
Pastor Francis Armstrong
