2/26/14 Jeremiah 31:17 There Is Hope For Your Future

 

Jeremiah 31:17 (NAS)

And there is hope for your future," declares the LORD, "And your children shall return to their own territory.

 

             Jeremiah 31:17 (NIVUS)

So there is hope for your future," declares the LORD. "Your children will return to their own land.

  
The words "faith" and "hope", in the natural realm, seem to be ethereal concepts with no real substance. And yet Jehovah the Lord states emphatically that these abstracts do have substance and form. Faith and hope do exist and are, in fact, the currency of the Kingdom of God.
 
You may have had a bad beginning, but that does not mean you will have a bad ending. The door of your dungeon has been opened and you have been delivered from the prison of "no hope".   Now you are attached with a cord to the One who is the Source of all hope and He tells you that you can expect a good future. That for which you have longed will come to you and your reward will be an inheritance for your posterity.

Your children, the sons and daughters of your loins, will not be turned away from their inheritance.  The boundaries and borders of your territory will be honored and what you have built will be delivered to your descendants. Your diligent labor will recover your land, so that you can pass it on to your sons. Both you and your sons will be rewarded from one border to another.
