“ Biblical hope ” Dr. Morecraft explains that the word "hope" in the Bible is used differently than modern Americans use it. Modern Americans say things like, "it's supposed to rain today, but I hope it doesn't." Hope in the Bible isn't used in the sense of "I hope so" in modern English. The word "hope" in the Old Testament involves at least two elements. First is confident assurance in God's faithfulness to His Word. A Christian has confidence that whatever happens in the future, God is going to fulfill His Word. A Christian believes God's Word to be true and is confident that God will cause it to be true in his life. The second element is expectation. The Christian expects that good things are going to happen in his life and in the lives of his descendants as they are faithful to God. He expects certain good things to happen and he knows they're going to happen because God has promised them. Whatever God has promised he knows will take place. God has His own timetable, but nevertheless the Christian is absolutely confident and assured that He will perform what He has promised, and he expects those things to happen. Therefore, true believers in Jesus can be joyfully and intelligently optimistic about the future whatever it holds.
