"But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you." Romans 8:11 NKJV
When you think about it, there is no such thing as hopeless with Jesus. He is hope and can do whatever He chooses and what's more, He knows what is best for you and I. The word 'hopeless' is a very weak word and there isn't a shred of weakness in Jesus. So, this means that with Him in our lives, we too are never in a hopeless situation. Don't we read in Romans 8:37 that we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us? I see no mention of the word 'Hopeless'. Only the devil uses that type of language.
When you were young, your parents may have told you that 'you are hopeless' when you failed at something. Another thing you may have heard from them is, 'You'll never come to much', referring to your future in the world. You may have heard this from school teachers, HM Forces training or other places. Whoever told you this, was being used by the evil one because, it was a lie. You are special in Jesus' eyes.
If you had this kind of treatment when you were younger, discount this and refuse to be tainted with the negativity again. Don't discount the power of God to bring about hope in your life. He can turn hopelessness into pure biblical hope in you. It is imperitive that you see yourself as Jesus sees you:
"The Lord their God will save them in that day, As the flock of His people. For they shall be like the jewels of a crown" Zechariah 9:16
Yes, that's you, you are a special jewel in God's eyes and He is so proud to have you as His Child. Believe it, this is not a lie it is a truth.
Nothing is hopeless in the Kingdom of God; everything is precious and important to Him. Don't forget He took your place on that cross so that you could have this biblical hope. You are a winner and one day He will tell you this face to face.
Don't allow people to put you down. Words can cut deeply if you take them on board. Learn to shrug them off with the shield of faith, after-all, they are fiery darts of the evil one. Stand tall with Jesus, walk with Him and as you do, hold your head up high, because you are a son or daughter of the King.
If you don't know Jesus or, have fallen away, why not say this prayer right now
Lord Jesus, I have sinned. I ask you to forgive me and be my Lord and Saviour. Please come into my heart, fill me with Your Spirit and give me a brand new start today. In Jesus' Name. Amen
