*FOUNTAIN OF KNOWLEDGE DAILY DEVOTIONALS* _(February 16, 2025)_ *DAY 47* *TOPIC: NEVER LOSE HOPE* _“For to him that is joined to all the living, there is hope for a living dog is better than a dead lion"_ *(Ecci 9:4)* Our subject today is "Never Lose Hope." Never lose hope or expectation because anywhere expectation is intact, manifestation is inevitable. Depression in the midst of the situations of Iife is a proof of lack of hope or expectation. When you think there is nothing that can be done about your situation and you don't see how anything can be done, then hope or expectation will be lacking. Beloved, there is nothing that is too difficult with God for as long as hope is intact. Abraham and Sarah expected the fruit of the womb for over 25 years. At the end of the day, our divine Constitution (The Bible) says, "Against hope Abraham believed and hoped until he became the father of many nations" (Rom. 4:18). Expectation will destroy every affliction. If you do not let go, expectation will terminate stagnation. I heard the story of a woman in London who had trusted in God for the fruit of the womb until she was past the age of child birth. One day, a word of revelation came for her in a meeting in which God said He was reversing her age by ten years. After this word, her system became young enough to take in a child, and she brought forth chiIdren because her expectation was intact. Beloved, do everything you can never to lose hope or expectation. Because until you give up, you cannot go down, and if you dont give up, you must go up in life. Now, how do you keep hope and expectations in life? *By the following ways:* 1. By your connection and association with the most high: To him that is joined to the living, there is hope. As long as you remain connected, related, and associated with God who made you, your expectations will be intact. Your hope must be alive. The more disconnected a person is from God, the more hopeless he gets in life. 2. By your revelation, what you see determines the extent to which you are willing to persist in your journey. The revelation of the word of God will birth hope and expectation in your life. Do everything you can to ensure that your hope is intact, and you must see your desired result, in Jesus Name, *Prophetic Instruction:* 1. Maintain the connection. Refuse to allow anything disconnect you from God 2. Search the word of God. Be on the lookout for revelation that will fuel your life’s expectations. It is well with you, in Jesus Name. *Prophetic Prayer:* Lord, I receive your help; I receive your mercy to remain connected to you, in Jesus Name. *Nugget of Wisdom:* Godlessness is the sponsor of hopelessness *Divine Empowerment:* Morning: Obadiah 1.
