The danger of losing hope by Alive to God

When we lose hope and give up on our vision and dreams, something begins to happen within us. It is as though death sets in. Losing hope dries up our bones. It removes the very life from our existence.

Ezekiel 37:11 Our bones are dried up and our hope is lost; we are completely cut off.

This can happen in many ways. It can happen when our dreams die – the death of a dream. It can also happen as we experience the loss of hope. These can be devastating as they can lead to a loss of purpose and on to depression and discouragement. BUT there is hope.

Romans 4:17 God, who gives life to the dead and calls those things which do not exist as though they did.

God is able to breathe new life into your dreams. God is able to do more and greater than we could have imagined.

Romans 4:20-21 Abraham never wavered in believing God’s promise. In fact, his faith grew stronger, and in this he brought glory to God. He was absolutely convinced that God was able to do anything He promised.

Do not limit God and do not give up on your dreams!
