Hope: The Power to Believe Until You Receive

Publisher Description

When a new recruit joins the army he is issued a helmet. From ancient times until now, the helmet has been recognized as a critical piece of armor that cannot be neglected, overlooked or dismissed. With enemy bullets whizzing by and bombs falling all around, it can mean the difference between life and death in battle. When you got saved you got drafted into God's army, and spiritual weapons were issued to you. Ephesians 6:17 tells us that the helmet of salvation is a part of that weaponry. 1 Thessalonians 5:8 goes further, and declares the helmet of salvation to be the hope of our salvation. Hebrews 11:6 says without faith you can't please God, so to successfully attack your faith the devil seeks to rob you of your hope, because Hebrews 11:1 says faith is the substance of what you hope for. Hope is a helmet because it deals with creating mental images that agree with God's Word, while simultaneously casting down every imagination that exalts itself against the knowledge of God (2 Corinthians 10:3-5). Every spiritual battle is won or lost in the mind. The devil knows this and you must too. If you lose your hope, you're faith will fail because you've lost your helmet and therefore, you're head is unprotected. The devil can then hammer away at your mind until defeat becomes his trophy! In this crucial teaching, Apostle Mike shows you how to use God's Helmet of Hope to make you a skilled soldier fully prepared for every fight of faith - keeping your mind protected for as long as it takes until victory is secured.
