The Hope Podcast with Lina Abujamra

I am confident because of the others [THE CONFIDENCE SERIES #8]

In today’s podcast we’re going to look at some of the most inspiring verses in the Bible.
Hebrews 11 presents to us a list of men and women of God who walked through immense obstacles and afflictions, sometimes experiencing miracles of deliverance, while sometimes suffering to the point of death.
They were all commended for their faith and their testimonies teach us four valuable lessons about the Christian life.
Tune in! This episode will build your faith, encourage you to persevere, challenge you to have an eternal perspective, and call you to value Christ above all else.

I am confident because of the cross [THE CONFIDENCE SERIES #7]

In today’s podcast we’ll continue our study of Hebrews and see how Jesus, the exalted Son and high priest provides full cleansing from sin and open access to God – the reality that the Old Testament anticipated but was never meant to accomplish.
In view of understanding who Christ is, the author of Hebrews encourages Christians to hold firmly to their faith in His work in spite of adversity.
Therefore do not throw away your confidence, which has a great reward.For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God you may receive what is promised. – Hebrews 10:35-36
If you feel challenged to reconcile the victorious Christian life with the trials we’re facing, take a listen to this episode!

I am confident because He loves me [THE CONFIDENCE SERIES #4]

In today’s podcast, as we delve into Hebrews 4-5, we will come to understand that our greatest sense of confidence comes from knowing that God loves us so deeply.
In this episode I’m also pointing out five reasons why we are not changing and growing in our faith, and the main things that I believe stand in our way of drawing closer to God.
Take some time to reflect on this episode. What applies to you the most? What changes can you make?

I am confident because He is faithful [THE CONFIDENCE SERIES #3]

One of the greatest battles we encounter as followers of Christ is the struggle against unbelief.
When our prayers go seemingly answered, when we don’t see the results we hoped for, when life hurls one curveball after another, we’re tempted to succumb to fear, disappointment, and to forget who is on our side.
In Hebrews chapter 3, the author is making a point that one of the most effective ways to fight unbelief is to consider Jesus, to think carefully about Him (Hebrews 3:1). By considering Him we will come to the realization that He is faithful, and that is all the confidence we need in the face of anything that comes our way.
If you’re going through a difficult time today, this episode will help remind you of God’s faithfulness to His people, always. Won’t you trust that He will be faithful to you as well?

I am confident because He is in control [THE CONFIDENCE SERIES #2]

Today we’re continuing The Confidence Series with a look at Hebrews chapter 2 where we will recognize another reason we can be confident: because God is in control.
Much like us today, the early Christian believers were living in tumultuous times. They confronted injustice, endured suffering, and grappled with a sense of uncertainty, all of which tempted them to forsake their faith.
In this context, the author of Hebrews reminds them, and us, that even when things look messy, when life is challenging, and our suffering seems to have no end, God is in control, and we can freely trust Him!
Our confidence does not hinge on our immediate circumstances but is rooted in the One who holds the entirety of the universe and its unfolding history in His hands.
Whatever difficulties you might be facing today, this podcast will encourage you to look to Him and find the confidence to go on.

I am confident because He speaks [THE CONFIDENCE SERIES #1]

I’m so excited to welcome you back to a new podcast series through the book of Hebrews I called The Confidence Series: How to fully trust God when I don’t see the way.
How do we navigate times of adversity victoriously? What do we need to stand unshaken in a rapidly changing culture? How do we replace our insecurities with immovable faith? How do we overcome disappointments and experience stability in the most unpredictable of times?
The author of Hebrews knows the answer—CONFIDENCE in God. Writing to a people living in turbulent times, challenged to reconcile the victorious Christian life with the trials they were facing and tempted to abandon their faith completely, the author of Hebrews urges believers to remain confident because of the things they know to be true about God.
I believe that now, more than ever, we need to become more God-confident and to remain steadfast in our resolve to follow Christ.
