Scripture and questions for study and reflection:

This morning we are concluding our sermon series on Game Changers. Over the past six weeks we have shared very strong promises from God\\u2026Biblical promises based on the Word of God. It is our hope and prayer that you will remember these promises and utilize them in your everyday life. This morning our final promise from God is \\u201cHope.\\u201d This always reminds me of our vision statement at Grand Lake UMC. We offer \\u201cReal Hope for Real Life.\\u201d God does that for us. We hope you have enjoyed this sermons series.

1. What are your thoughts from the message that you believe the Lord wanted you to hear from His Word?

2. Read Jeremiah 29:1-14. Make a list of the commands that you see in this passage. Which one(s) do you think were most difficult for the Israelites to obey?

3. Read the following Scriptures: Isaiah 40:31, Romans 15:13 and Hebrews 10:23. As you read each passage\\u2026share how or if they affect your life. What do they mean to you?

4. George Mueller wrote this about hope: \\u201cOh remember this: There is never a time when we may not hope in God. Whatever our necessities, however great our difficulties, and though to all appearance help is impossible, yet our business is to hope in God, and it will be found that it is not in vain.\\u201d How have you found this to be true or not true in your life?

Prayer for the Week:

Dear Lord, I will place my hope in You. If I become discouraged, I will turn to You. If I am afraid, I will seek strength in You. In every aspect of my life, I will trust You. You are my Father, and I will place my hope, my trust, and my faith in You. Amen.
