It is horrible to be excluded.  That is why there is such joy when people realise that Jesus (the 'Root of Jesse') is not only appointed the King over Israel, but also over every person in every other nation too.  Everybody who welcomes Jesus is included in His kingdom.  First, they hear the gospel; when they receive Jesus, they are marked as ‘belonging to God’ by the Holy Spirit who guarantees that they will always be part of His great family (Ephesians 1:13-14).  

Wherever people trust Jesus, they find that their faith has long distance vision, called 'hope'.  This is not a dream or a wish, but a confidence that we shall see Jesus and be transformed to be like Him (1 John 3:2).  When that day comes, every injustice will be dealt with, and every act of faith rewarded.

True faith cannot exist without hope; neither can love be sustained if hope is absent (Colossians 1:5-6).   We do not believe in order to just survive each day, but to enter into a long-term relationship with our Master; in the same way that a marriage commitment is radically different from casual friendship (2 Timothy 1:12).  The Bible provides God's promises of eternal security for all who trust in Jesus: and that is the hope which sustains us (Titus 1:1-3).  But more than that, our confidence in God's ability to keep His promises (validated by the resurrection of Jesus) enables our confidence to overflow with hope.  With the long-term relationship secure, we are also free to enjoy peace and joy each day as we wait.

The consequences of trusting in Jesus include - praising with a full heart, worshipping with a worldwide family, joy, peace and overflowing hope; all because the Holy Spirit is powerfully at work in our hearts and circumstances.  Through Him our hearts are strong in the face of intimidation, steadfast in persecution, patient through hardship and enduring through opposition ... all because we have the confident long-term view that Jesus is Lord, and we are safe in Him (Romans 5:5).
