Return to the stronghold,
You prisoners of hope.
Even today I declare
That I will restore double to you. Zechariah 9:12
It is the 9th month of the Year! And it seems your hope has turned into a prison! You couldn’t make your dreams come true neither could you stop believing in them! You couldn’t move forward neither could you stop thinking about it. And you couldn’t make to the initial stage where you had that hope instilled in you! Yes… You’re a prisoner of hope! Because it is HE who instilled that hope in you! Hope is bold and daring! Hope is Audacious! Hope doesn’t care about logic neither does it rely on it! Real Hope is not wishing or wanting! It comes from a much deeper well! It comes from the place of faith with its root in God’s Promise! So what must we do now? Return to your stronghold! Who is your stronghold? Your stronghold is your trust in the living God! It’s trusting Him in spite of all the reasoning of your mind . . . in spite of the circumstances that surround you! And what happens when you keep trusting in him being a prisoner of hope? So there’s Good News! God says, “Even now I announce to you that not only will I restore to you all that has been taken from you, but I will give you double for all the trouble you have endured.” He says, “Don’t stop now . . . keep trusting me, because I can see your future and it is very blessed. So Your Hope will not go in Vain! Your season of double restoration is here! Praise Him! Your restoration is on your Way!
