Let us break Their bands [of restraint] asunder and cast Their cords
[of control] from us. - Psalm 2:3, AMP.

Hope is a dangerous thing to have, but not having it is a death wish.
The online wikipedia defines hope as an optimistic attitude of mind
based on an expectation of positive outcomes related to events and
circumstances in one's life or the world at large. In a world full of
people who are constantly seeking ways to break free from God and to
defy Him in every possible way, it seems the only time we can be
allowed to live our lives in peace is when we finally throw in the
towel and turn our backs on God. I mean, can any good really come out
of the world we're living in today with the way it's been run?

But, just before you throw in that towel and give up, I invite you to
laugh with the King of heavens Who laughs because He has anointed
(installed and placed) His King [FIRMLY] in His holy hill of Zion
(Psalm 2:6) and of the increase of His government...there shall be no
end (Isaiah 9:7). He laughs because He knows the end from the
beginning and He knows how rich His glorious inheritance is in His
saints (Ephesians 1:18). He laughs because He looks forward to the
time He shall come with His new heaven and new earth (Revelation
21:1). Do you see how hopeful our God is? Like the virtuous woman, He
is rejoicing over the future (Proverbs 31:25).

Now, you know why you cannot give up. Our trust in God is a blessed
assurance. Though the kings of the earth and its rulers gather to plot
against Him and His Kingdom, He remains and will forever be in
control. Yes, hope might be a dangerous thing but He Whom our hope is
anchored on is true, unchanging and faithful; and blessed are all
those who seek refuge and put their trust in Him! (Psalm 2:12b).
