Hope (From He Who transcends Time and Place)

"Have I not commanded you? 

Be strong and courageous.

 Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, 

for the Lord your God will be with you 

wherever you go" 

Joshua 1:9

But now, this is what the LORD says— 

he who created you, Jacob, 

he who formed you, Israel: 

“Do not fear, for I have redeemed you;

 I have summoned you by name;

 you are mine.

Isa.43:1

So do not fear, for I am with you; 

do not be dismayed, for I am your God. 

I will strengthen you and help you; 

I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

Isa.41:10

And the angel said unto them, Fear not: 

for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, 

which shall be to all people.

 Luke 2:10

Hope Has a Name -River Valley Worship

From He who transcends time and place

To we in need of saving grace

Since that first angel-hymn unfurled

Hope penetrates a broken world

Ah! Lift your hearts in praise and prayer

We are not destined to despair

Nor doomed to suffer Satan’s scorn

The Savior of the world is born

Be not afraid, for unto us

A Deliv’rer still comes; Jesus

Then let us too make haste to see

First Bethlehem, then Calvary

Then, let us with hearts humbly awed

Bring gifts of thankfulness to God

For hope transcending time and place

From He who saves us by His grace

Deut.11:19

Teach them (God's Words/laws) to your children, 

speaking about them when you sit at home 

and when you walk along the road, 

when you lie down 

and when you get up...
