"May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit."
Romans 15:13 lays out for us a clear and beautiful truth about trusting in God who is our only source of true and lasting hope. The Christian who places his or her trust in Him will experience joy, peace, and confidence that will never be shaken by the enemy. The Holy Spirit dwells in us, prays for us, comforts us, enlightens us, and empowers us. And no trial, temptation, persecution, or evil plan can rob us of this supernatural joy, peace, and confidence.
Our hope is fixed on a God who never changes. He is forever able. He is always loving. He has triumphed over death and over the enemy. This means that our victory is secure in this life and in the next. This also means that we are overcomers who live with purpose and meaning. And even though the enemy may try to throw challenges in our way, like Joseph, we know that God will always cause all things to work for our good.
In knowing this, we can weather any storm with hope, joy, and peace.
