Summary:
This week’s message, delivered by guest speaker Barbara Wentroble, ushers us into a season of prophetic hope. In this season, through prayer, we can stand firm on God’s promises and fulfill His will in our lives! The true prophetic word will bring us genuine hope for the future. In this turbulent and uncertain time, we often find ourselves living in anxiety, fear, and unrest, grasping for material things that might give us a sense of security. However, as Barbara Wentroble has shared, from the perspective of Scripture and God’s promises, we need to hold on to the prophetic promises that are filled with hope. Especially in the face of negative circumstances, seemingly impossible situations, or harsh realities, these promises are the key to overcoming challenges. Our hope is not only in believing God’s Word but also in truly understanding that our relationship with God is crucial in recognizing our redeemed identity in Him. God has placed us in the position of sons, a spiritual symbol of identity that transcends earthly notions of gender. With this identity, we can approach the throne of our Heavenly Father without fear, walking and working alongside Him in confidence. As we enter this prophetic season, let us draw closer to God, filled with hope for the future and steadfast in faith, knowing we will experience the peace and joy that only He can give.
