Micah 1; Micah 2; Micah 3; Micah 4; Hebrews 6
This Hope
Is A Strong And Trustworthy
Anchor For Our Souls.
Scripture
18 …Therefore, we who have fled to him for refuge can have great confidence as we hold to the hope that lies before us. 19 This hope is a strong and trustworthy anchor for our souls.
Observation
I have an anchor for my kayak that works really
well … usually! Last week while we were at the beach I went out in my kayak on
a day that I should have not gone out. The weather was so bad all week that
there was not one day when it was right to go out in my kayak. It was rough.
But I went out and I decided that I would throw my anchor out and try to fish.
The waves were so big and it was so rough that after a few minutes I decided to
pull up my anchor and head back in. My anchor would not come up – it was stuck!
For a few seconds there was panic, if I had to leave my
anchor out there I had no way to come back and get it later. I had no float to
attach to the anchor rope that would have marked where the anchor was stuck. I
didn’t want to lose the anchor. It was secured very well down at the bottom of
the ocean. I prayed and asked God to help me free the anchor and I pulled one
more time and the anchor finally came loose and I pulled it up.
This hope is a strong and trustworthy anchor for our
souls. It can’t be freed up no matter how hard someone pulls on it. It is secure
– 100%!
We can have great confidence as we hold on to the hope
that lies before us. It is the anchor that will keep us secure!
Application
I have a strong and trustworthy anchor for when storms
come my way. God is my refuge. He gives
me great confidence. He gives me hope.
Prayer
