EP86 The Hope of His Return : Made Alive for a Purpose!

from I am Matthew Podcast: Overcoming Past Mistakes with Spiritual Growth · host Robert Howard

In this episode, I start by talking about my families recent vacation and the awesome opportunity to meet Forrest Frank in person. Forrest had shared a YouTube short about feeling a shift—like Jesus is coming back soon—and that sparked today’s discussion. It reminded us of 1 Thessalonians 5:4, where Paul says that even though Jesus will come like a thief in the night, we are not children of darkness but of the light.From there, we move into Ephesians 2:1–10, where Paul reminds us that God has brought us from death to life through His grace. Verses 1–9 show us the hope we have in His mercy, and verse 10 ties it all together—showing that we’ve been made alive for a purpose, to walk in the good works He’s prepared for us.This episode reminds us that our hope is both present and future: we live ready for His return, walking daily in the purpose His grace provides.Scripture Focus:📖 1 Thessalonians 5:1–6📖 Ephesians 2:1–10If you’d like to learn more about the ministry or support our mission, visit www.iammatthewministries.com or give through Venmo @IAmMatthewMinistries.
