Abundant Hope: For Those Who Hurt
03/13/11
Dr. Phil Wilkes, Psalm 30
This is the first of three messages that remind people regardless of what they are dealing with that there is hope. Hope is not wishful thinking. It is a confident expectation that comes from knowing Jesus Christ as your Savior and Lord.
No one is exempt from crisis and problems. No one is exempt from being hurt. Whether hurt in your life is caused by your own sin or by the actions of others, the tendency is to see yourself as “tainted,” and some would conclude about themselves they are worthless.
This Psalm shows what can happen when you reach a turning point in your life. It is turning away from self-reliance and turning to God as your source of strength. David said...(v. 8) To you, O Lord, I called; to the Lord I cried for mercy.”
The Lord will hear you and respond to you when you call on Him. He will do a good work in your life. Life doesn’t have to overwhelm you. Put your hope in God and see what a difference He will make in you.
