Hope

Matthew 2:1-2 

Magi from the east came to Jerusalem, saying, “Where is the One who has been born King of the Jews?   For we saw HIS star in the east and have come to worship HIM.”

Matthew 4:10-17

Then Yeshua says to him, “Go away, satan! For it is written, ‘You shall worship Adonai your GOD, and HIM only shall you serve.’” Then the devil leaves HIM. And behold, angels came and began to take care of HIM. Now when Yeshua heard that John had been handed over, HE withdrew to the Galilee. Leaving Natzeret, HE came and settled in Capernaum, which is by the sea in the regions of Zebulun and Naphtali. This was to fulfill what was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying, “Land of Zebulun and land of Naphtali, the way of the sea, beyond the Jordan, Galilee of the nations—the people sitting in darkness have seen a great light, and those sitting in the region and shadow of death, on them a light has dawned.” From then on, Yeshua began to proclaim, “Turn away from your sins, for the Kingdom of heaven is near.”

Luke 2:8-10

Now there were shepherds in the same region, living out in the fields and guarding their flock at night. Suddenly an angel of Adonai stood before them, and the glory of Adonai shone all around them; and they were absolutely terrified. But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid! For behold, I proclaim Good News to you, which will be great joy to all the people.

Luke 10:23-24

Then, turning to the disciples, HE said privately, “Blessed are the eyes that see what you see! For I tell you, many prophets and kings desired to see what you are seeing yet did not see, and to hear what you are hearing yet did not hear.”

John 1:14

And the Word became flesh and tabernacled among us. We looked upon HIS glory,  the glory of the One and only from the AVI, full of grace and truth.

Romans 15:13

Now may the GOD of HOPE fill you with all joy and shalom in trusting, so you may overflow with HOPE in the power of the Ruach ha-Kodesh.
