Titus 2:13 - Endless Hope.

Titus 2:13 (NLT) we look forward with hope 
to that wonderful day when the glory of our 
great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, will be 
revealed. 

COMMENTARY PEARL

   Were living in a time when a lot of 
people have lost hope. In fact, some experts have 
described Generation Z as the hopeless generation. 
   One person has said that man can live 
40 days without food, three days without water, 
six minutes without air, but only one second 
without hope. 
   If we have a proper biblical 
understanding of what Heaven is and all thats awaiting 
us there, we should be happy. God loves us. God 
cares about us. He has a plan for our lives. 
   Ultimately, that plan is for us to join 
Him in Heaven for all eternity. Well be 
reunited with loved ones who died in faith and have 
preceded us to Heaven. 
   Titus 2:13"14 tells us, We look 
forward with hope to that wonderful day when the 
glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, 
will be revealed. He gave his life to free us 
from every kind of sin, to cleanse us, and to 
make us his very own people, totally committed to 
doing good deeds (nlt). 
   Therefore, we can have happiness"not 
from things or experiences, but from a 
relationship with God himself. 
   When you ask Christ to come into your 
life, He forgives your sin. And because of this, 
you can have hope. 
   Maybe youve lost hope today. You might 
have received the worst news imaginable from a 
doctor. Maybe youve lost a loved one. Or maybe 
you feel as though life isnt worth living 
anymore. 
   You need Jesus right now. He says, 
Look! I stand at the door and knock. If you hear 
my voice and open the door, I will come in 
(Revelation 3:20 nlt). 
   Jesus will give you the hope, happiness, 
and purpose you want in life. Life without Jesus 
has a hopeless end. But life with Jesus has 
endless hope. [Greg Laurie from Harvest Ministries;

PRACTICAL APPLICATION

   Rejoice and exult in hope. Raise a shout 
of Joy! You have good reason to be joyful, 
because you're on your way to heaven. I have paid 
the penalty for your sins and clothed you in My 
own righteousness. This is the basis of hope - 
for you, for all who truly know Me as Savior. No 
matter what is going on in your life at this time, 
your hope in Me is secure. No one will be able to 
snatch you out of My hand. In Me you have absolute, 
eternal security!  
   Be constant in prayer - at all times, but 
especially when you are struggling. During trials, you 
need close communication with Me more than ever. 
However, your ability to concentrate may be hampered 
by stress and fatigue. So make full use of the 
amazing source of strength within you - My Spirit. 
Ask the Holy Spirit to control your mind: to 
think through you and pray through you. Your 
prayers need not be pretty or proper. Just let them 
flow out of your current situation. As you stay 
in communication with Me, I help you to be 
steadfast and patient in suffering. (Rom. 12:12; Tit. 
2:11, 13; John 10:28; Rom. 8:6) [Jesus Today by 
Sarah Young]
