1. Hope– Even WhenYou Have
Failed

2. Hebrews 10:1 For the law, having a shadow of the
good things to come, and not the very image of the
things, can never with these same sacrifices, which they
offer continually year by year, make those who approach
perfect. 2 For then would they not have ceased to be
offered? For the worshipers, once purified, would have
had no more consciousness of sins. 3 But in those
sacrifices there is a reminder of sins every year. 4 For it is
not possible that the blood of bulls and goats could take
away sins.

3. Hebrews 10:11 And every priest stands ministering
daily and offering repeatedly the same sacrifices, which
can never take away sins. 12 But this Man, after He had
offered one sacrifice for sins forever, sat down at the
right hand of God, 13 from that time waiting till His
enemies are made His footstool. 14 For by one offering
He has perfected forever those who are being sanctified.

4. Proverbs 28:1 The wicked flee when no one pursues,
But the righteous are bold as a lion.
It’s easy to be bold and expect blessings when we feel
like we have been “pretty good,” but what about when
we have failed?

5. Romans 5:17 For if by one man's offence death reigned by
one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of
the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.)
18 Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all
men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the
free gift came upon all men unto justification of life.

6. Romans 5:19 For as by one man's disobedience many were
made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made
righteous.
20 Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But
where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:
21 That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign
through righteousness unto eternal life by Jesus Christ our Lord.

7. Hebrews 4:7Again, he limiteth a certain day, saying in David,To
day, after so long a time; as it is said,To day if ye will hear his
voice, harden not your hearts.
8 For if Jesus had given them rest, then would he not afterward
have spoken of another day.
9 There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of God.
10 For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from
his own works, as God did from his.

8. Hebrews 4:11 Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest,
lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief…
14 Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed
into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our
profession.
15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with
the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as
we are, yet without sin.
16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that
we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.

9. Does your boldness come from your own work
Or
Does it come from the security of being in Christ?

10. Hebrews 6:13 For when God made a promise to Abraham,
because He could swear by no one greater, He swore by Himself,
14 saying,“Surely blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will
multiply you.”[d] 15 And so, after he had patiently endured, he
obtained the promise. 16 For men indeed swear by the greater,
and an oath for confirmation is for them an end of all dispute.
17 Thus God, determining to show more abundantly to the heirs
of promise the immutability of His counsel, confirmed it by an
oath, 18 that by two immutable things, in which it is impossible for
God to lie, we might[e] have strong consolation, who have fled
for refuge to lay hold of the hope set before us.

11. Hebrews 6:18 that by two immutable things, in which it is
impossible for God to lie, we might[e] have strong consolation,
who have fled for refuge to lay hold of the hope set before us.
19 This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, both sure and
steadfast, and which enters the Presence behind the veil, 20 where
the forerunner has entered for us, even Jesus, having become High
Priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek.

12. Hebrews 4:11 Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest,
lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief…
16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that
we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
James 5:16 The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man
availeth much.
17 Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are, and he
prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the
earth by the space of three years and six months.
