Bible Verse of the Day May 16 2025
“May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.”
— Romans 15:13 (NIV)
🔎 Reflection on Today’s Verse
We live in a time when true joy and lasting peace often feel out of reach. The stresses of daily life, heartbreaks, uncertainties, and endless responsibilities can chip away at our spirit. But Romans 15:13 brings a powerful reminder: God is not only a source of hope—He is the God of hope.
When we trust in Him, He doesn’t just give us barely enough to survive; He fills us—with joy, peace, and overflowing hope. And this filling isn’t from the world; it’s by the power of the Holy Spirit. This verse is an invitation to let go of fear and lean into God’s promises, where trust becomes the channel for joy and peace to flood our hearts.
Today, if you’re weary, anxious, or discouraged, remember: Hope isn’t found in perfect circumstances, but in a perfect Savior. And when you trust Him, He will fill you completely, to the point of overflowing.
🙏 Personal Prayer
God of hope, I come to You today longing for Your joy and peace. I confess that I sometimes try to carry life on my own, and it drains me. Help me to trust You more deeply. Fill me with hope that overflows into every part of my life, and let the power of Your Holy Spirit strengthen me. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
