One of the verses in which we find the word hope is found in Hebrews 11:1 ~ “Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.” This verse at the beginning of the faith chapter {Hebrews 11} carries with it all the confidence that comes with knowing for sure, and with no question, what we have been promised by God in His Word. Our faith is confident assurance for it is founded upon the Rock of our salvation, the Lord Jesus Christ. All of the actions of the heroes of the faith recorded in Hebrews 11 were made possible because they had this faith, based in their confident assurance, or hope in God. As believers, we are also called to give an answer for that hope that is within us to any who would ask.
See {1 Peter 3:15}

Biblical hope  when anchored in Jesus Christ is a reality and not a feeling. Hope carries no doubt and is the very sure foundation upon which we base our lives, believing that God always keeps His promises. Hope, or our confident assurance can be ours when we trust the words: “He who believes on Me has everlasting life” … {John 6:4}

Accepting the gift of eternal life means our hope is no longer filled with doubt, but rather, has at its sure foundation the whole of God’s Word, the entirety of God’s character, and the finished work of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

Our Hope lives; His Name is LORD Jesus Christ.
