Christian quotes about hopelessness

“Hopelessness has surprised me with patience.” Margaret J. Wheatley

“Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all of the darkness.” Desmond Tutu

“Do not look to your hope, but to Christ, the source of your hope.” Charles Spurgeon

“God grant me the courage not to give up what I think is right even though I think it is hopeless.” Chester W. Nimitz

“A cheerful spirit is one of the most valuable gifts ever bestowed upon humanity by a kind Creator. It is the sweetest and most fragrant flower of the Spirit, that constantly sends out its beauty and fragrance, and blesses everything within its reach. It will sustain the soul in the darkest and most dreary places of this world. It will hold in check the demons of despair, and stifle the power of discouragement and hopelessness. It is the brightest star that ever cast its radiance over the darkened soul, and one that seldom sets in the gloom of morbid fancies and forboding imaginations.”

“We can do nothing, we say sometimes, we can only pray. That, we feel, is a terribly precarious second-best. So long as we can fuss and work and rush about, so long as we can lend a hand, we have some hope; but if we have to fall back upon God — ah, then things must be critical indeed!” A.J. Gossip

“Our hopelessness and our helplessness are no barrier to (God’s) work. Indeed our utter incapacity is often the prop He delights to use for His next act… We are facing one of the principles of Yahweh’s modus operandi. When His people are without strength, without resources, without hope, without human gimmicks – then He loves to stretch forth His hand from heaven. Once we see where God often begins we will understand how we may be encouraged.” Ralph Davis

Hope for your future

1. Proverbs 23:18 Surely there is a future, And your hope will not be cut off.

2. Proverbs 24:14 Know also that wisdom is like honey for you: If you find it, there is a future hope for you, and your hope will not be cut off.

Let’s learn what Scripture teaches us about hopelessness

3. Psalm 147:11 The LORD values those who fear Him, those who put their hope in His faithful love.

4. Psalm 39:7 And so, Lord, where do I put my hope? My only hope is in you.

5. Romans 8:24-26 For in this hope we were saved. Now hope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for what he sees? But if we hope for what we do not see, we wait for it with patience. Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness. For we do not know what to pray for as we ought, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words.

6. Psalm 52:9 I will praise you forever, O God, for what you have done. I will trust in your good name in the presence of your faithful people.

The God of hope will never forsake His children! Never!

7. Psalm 9:10-11 And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, LORD, hast not forsaken them that seek thee. Sing praises to the LORD, which dwelleth in Zion: declare among the people his doings.

8. Psalm 37:28 For the LORD loves justice And does not forsake His godly ones; They are preserved forever, But the descendants of the wicked will be cut off.

9. Deuteronomy 31:8 “The LORD is the one who goes ahead of you; He will be with you. He will not fail you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed.”

When trusting in the Lord and doing God’s will you will not be put to shame.

10. Psalm 25:3 No one who hopes in you will ever be put to shame, but shame will come on those who are treacherous without cause.

11. Isaiah 54:4 “Do not be afraid; you will not be put to shame. Do not fear disgrace; you will not be humiliated. You will forget the shame of your youth and remember no more the reproach of your widowhood.”

12. Isaiah 61:7 Instead of your shame you will receive a double portion, and instead of disgrace you will rejoice in your inheritance. And so you will inherit a double portion in your land, and everlasting joy will be yours.

Whenever you’re feeling hopeless.

13. Hebrews 12:2-3 fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Consider him who endured such opposition from sinners, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.

Reminders

14. Psalm 25:5 Guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long.

15. Philippians 4:6-7 Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

Bonus

Psalm 119:116-117 Uphold me according to your promise, that I may live, and let me not be put to shame in my hope! Hold me up, that I may be safe and have regard for your statutes continually!
