If you are like the rest of us, you could probably use more hope in your life. You might be worried about the mortgage, the kids and the job.

The book of Revelation shows us that there are reasons life is so hard, and there are keys to help you discover hope in your future.
A central theme of hope runs through the entire Bible and culminates in the book of Revelation. The message reveals why human societies fail and, most importantly, how the problems will eventually be solved. This message of hope centers around seven basic concepts that apply to you personally:
1. You have a special purpose in life, and there are solutions to your problems.
You can keep applying the same old solutions to the same old problems and you will keep having the same old problems. You must turn to the Creator of life as the source of the solutions to life's problems.
2. God created you in His image, but is His purpose being fulfilled in your life?
Most people today are not fully aware of God's plan and are not actively participating in it. This is why humanity suffers from anguish, war, hatred, greed, inequality and disease.
3. You can experience a relationship with God and live your purpose.
God can heal you spiritually, emotionally and physically.
4. This change can only take place when you accept your need to change.
Believe change is possible through God's involvement in your life.
5. You must seek God's way of life, which is outlined in the Bible.
The Bible isn't just an ancient book of stories. It is relevant to your life as God's instruction book for how life works.
6. Jesus Christ is coming to save the world, and you need to be preparing for that day by becoming His disciple.
Jesus is coming to establish the Kingdom of God on earth. It will be a Kingdom based on God's universal values and laws. His government will create a new agricultural system, pollution-free manufacturing, a universal educational system, one world religion, and peace and prosperity.
7. Your ultimate destiny is to become a child of God.
You can have a Father-child relationship with Him now. Nothing can bring more happiness, hope, love and power into your life than living by this basic biblical theme!
