FAITH CAPSULE<\/strong>: Trust and hope in all His word and truth shall make you free.<\/p>\n

Acts 16<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Paul and Silas\u2019 boldness and character were trust and hope in the truth word of God to glorified God. It happened that Paul commanded a spirit out of a girl and her masters saw that their hope of profit was gone; they seized Paul and Silas and dragged them<\/em> into jail. (Acts 16:19)
\nWhile at midnight, Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God. As they sang, a great earthquake caused the foundations of the prison broken and immediately all the doors were opened with everyone\u2019s chains loosed. Paul and Silas did not flee but waited bye and spoke word that gave salvation. Paul and Silas led a family to baptism. With trust there was character; with hope there was boldness. Paul and Silas demonstrated that they know the truth and truly the truth made them free from the prison.
\nCertainly, without doubt the word of God is the truth. Indeed, the truth, the way and the life is one that cannot be separated from each other. Thomas among the disciples of Jesus said to Him, \u201cLord, we do not know where You are going, and how can we know the way? Jesus said to him, <\/em><\/strong>\u201cI am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.<\/em><\/strong>\u201d (John 14:5-6)
\n<\/em><\/strong>Jesus is the word of God.
\nAre you abiding in the word? To abide in the word is to know the truth. Knowing the truth is the key but not knowing about the truth.
\nJust like Paul and Silas, abide in the word and you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. (John 8:31-32)
\nIn the wicked world is to know the truth about trust and hope in the Lord and be free.
\nJeremiah 17:7 <\/em><\/strong>stated, \u201cBlessed is the man who trusts in the Lord and whose hope is in the Lord.\u201d
\n<\/em><\/strong>Are you claiming trust without hope?
\nClaiming trust in the Lord is not complete without claiming hope in Him.
\nDo you trust and not hope?
\nTrust is character while hope is confidence. Many trust on God (they are active in church) but no hope which is boldness. Trust is character; Hope (confidence) is boldness.
\nDo you have trust and hope (boldness and character)? It is boldness and character that makes you free.
\nSaul trusted God and he waited for seven days as commanded by Samuel. However, when all his people were scattered, he lost hope and had no confidence in the word of God\u2019s prophet. Saul could not be free but lost. (1 Samuel 13)
\nAs an acclaimed believer, trust and hope according to word of God. Allow the truth of word make you free.<\/p>\n
