Hope: A Holy Promise is an inspirational treasury of quotations for the works of Oswald Chambers, the worlds most beloved devotional writer and author of My Utmost for His Highest. Our hope is in the Lord. Oswald Chambers has much to say about having such hope, and he uses several words to describe it, as does Scripture-words such as trust, confidence, and certainty. Our hope is grounded in the trustworthiness of God. We can have confidence in that hope because the Holy Spirit confides to us th mysteries of God. And our hope is made certain by Christ and His resurrection. As Chambers says: "Mathematics is the rule of reason and common sense, but...hope is the rule of the spiritual. We are gloriously uncertain of the next step, but we are certain of God." Chambers will inspire and challenge you with his simple and direct biblical wisdom on this subject. Each page also features questions for personal reflection.
