Hope in God

Hope in God

Psalm 42:5

Discouragement destroys hope, so naturally the devil always tries to discourage you. Without hope you give up, which is what Satan wants you to do. The Bible repeatedly tells you not to be discouraged or dismayed. God knows you will not come through to victory if you get discouraged – He wants you to be encouraged, not discouraged.

 

When discouragement or condemnation tries to overtake you, ask the Lord for strength and courage. Tomorrow is a new day. God loves you and His mercy is new every morning. Say, "I refuse to be discouraged. Father, the Bible says You love me. You sent Jesus to die for me. I'll be fine – tomorrow will be a great day."
