God of Hope

Jesus told him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me (John 14:6).

What good is it, dear brothers and sisters, if you say you have faith but don’t show it by your actions? (James 2:14)

The Lord . . .delights in people who are trustworthy. . . . Now, a person who is put in charge as a manager must be faithful (Proverbs 12:22; 1 Corinthians 4:2).

For the word of the Lord is right and true; he is faithful in all he does (Psalm 33:4).

Jesus told them. “I tell you the truth, if you had faith even as small as a mustard seed, you could say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it would move (Matthew 17:20).

So you see, it isn’t enough just to have faith. You must also do good to prove that you have it (James 2:17).

Those who trust in themselves are fools. . . . Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you (Proverbs 28:26; 1 Peter 5:7).

Let us draw near to God with a sincere heart and with the full assurance that faith brings (Hebrews 10:22).

My dear brothers and sisters, how can you claim to have faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ if you favor some people over others? (James 2:1)

It is impossible to please God without faith. Anyone who wants to come to him must believe that God exists and that he rewards those who sincerely seek him (Hebrews 11:6).

So you see, faith by itself isn’t enough. Unless it produces good deeds, it is dead and useless (James 2:17).

Set an example for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith and in purity (1 Timothy 4:12).
