Hope has several meanings but for the sake of this post, we will use two (2) to try to explain what hope means.
Firstly hope means a feeling of expectation and desire for a particular thing to happen. Secondly hope is a feeling of trust. Hope is the world's version of faith, faith is the substance of things hope for, the evidence of things not seen. Faith is the title deed, a proof of what you already have,even if physically you are not seeing it yet, but with the eyes of the spirit it is yours.

Faith is an advanced hope, faith is to the Christian what hope is to the world. This is where it gets interesting, remember hope is a feeling of expectation and desire for a particular thing to happen but it is not backed up with belief, so the major difference between faith and hope is belief.
When you desire something, it is merely hope, which is what most of us have, hence our prayers are not answered because the Bible says without faith it is impossible to please God.

We have to back our hope or rather convert our hope to faith so we can have our prayers and requests granted. We have to simply add belief,be convinced in your spirit, the Bible says
quoteLuke 17: 6. And the Lord said, If ye had faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye might say unto this sycamine tree, Be thou plucked up by the root, and be thou planted in the sea; and it should obey you.>quote
The mountain would obey you provided you believe and hold onto your faith. Hope is merely a wish but faith goes a step further and takes action, but the funny thing is you can't get faith without hope, the sky is big enough to contain everyone, so keep or start dreaming big and aiming for the sky. Turn your hope to faith today and declare your prosperity, wealth and your heart desires, and believe your needs will be met. Your life will increase on every side with your prayers and requests in line with God's word granted, also you will move from glory to glory. Turn your hope to faith now.
