It explains that in life there will be unexpected problems, but God wants believers to be filled with hope and expectancy in Him. In the past, the author was imprisoned by tears, worries and doubts, but God helped them realize they needed to break those chains and instead be chained to God's hope. No matter how long something takes or how impossible it seems, believers should have an attitude of trusting God's sovereignty and knowing that as He promised, they will overcome and it will work out as they wait in hope through Christ. The prayer at the end thanks God for the ability to wrap oneself in His hope regardless of discourage

    PRISONER OF HOPE

    A Promise from my God:

    Zechariah 9:12

    Turn you to the strong hold, ye prisoners of hope: even


    today do I declare that I will render double unto thee;

    GOD’s MESSAGE FOR ME TODAY

    In this life, I will have unexpected problems. That though,


    I do my best to take care of my things, one morning my keys
    will be missing. In spite of doing my best to be a defensive
    driver, someone will cut me on the road. And however I try to
    behave, someone will do something that might make me lose
    control… if I let it.

    When things get difficult, it’s easy for me to want to give


    up. It’s easy to get down and feel discouraged. It’s easy to blow
    my top and just go back to the old mean me. But, that’s not
    God’s plan for me.

    God wants me to be so full of hope, so full of expectancy


    that I just can’t help believing for the best. He wants me to be
    a prisoner not of anything negative but a prisoner of hope in
    Him! And when I am a prisoner of something, it’s like I am
    chained to it. In other words, I can’t get away from it.

    In the past I was a prisoner of my tears, a prisoner of


    worries, and a prisoner of doubts. I said “Nothing good will
    ever happen to me anymore.” “It’s just been too long, I don’t
    think of my situation is going to get any better.” I found I was
    chained to the wrong things, until God knocked me on my
    head and made me realize that I needed to break those chains
    and become a prisoner of His hope.

    That means, that no matter how long it’s taking, no


    matter how impossible it looks, your attitude and my attitude
    should be, “I believe in a Sovereign God. I trust the Almighty
    God. I do my best to obey His will and His Word. And so I
    know it’s going to work out fine as He promised. By His grace,
    I know I’m going to overcome. I may already be waiting a
    long time, but I know this too shall pass. It may be difficult,
    but I believe that means I’m closer to my victory for being a
    prisoner of Hope in Christ!”

    MY PRAYER FOR TODAY:

    Father, thank You that though I am a prisoner, I could be


    a prisoner of Your hope when I choose to. Please help me to
    wrap myself in that hope and attach myself to it regardless of
    all the discouragements that may come my way. Help me to
    believe and expect that as You promised, You will bless mw
    with twice of all that I have lost and were taken away from
    me. Thank You for everything You are doing in and through
    me. Thank You that I can always put my faith and hope in
    You no matter how bad things in my life, in Jesus’ name.
    Amen!
