The Best Affirmations to Increase Hope in Your Life — New Bern Supernatural School Of Ministry

The Bible is full to the brim with declarations that can increase hope in your life. Hope is not something that changes with the wind. It is an assurance from God that we are well cared for and fully loved by a creator that values family and fatherhood in our lives. Often times we see people lost hope after fighting a battle for a long time, encountering a situation that seems to have no good resolution, or losing a loved one. Here is a list of declarations and the verses they are based upon, all listed in the ESV version.
