God wants each one of us to come to the place with our expectation that we BELIEVE Him.
His way is the opposite of what we normally see. People want to see it in order to believe it. God wants us to believe it in order to see it.
If we want to actually have faith in God, we have to get to know Him, not just know about Him. If not, faith become religion. And religion has no power.
The best time to spend with God is first thing in the morning. We ought to read His Word and then meditate on it throughout the day, thanking Him for His Word.
We need to be wise and spend our time on the epistles of Paul. The whole Bible is true, but not all of it pertains to the Body of Christ. The totality of the Mystery of the Body of Christ has been revealed to us through the writings of Paul.
Expectation requires determination. Are you determined to receive from God. In Mark 5, the woman with the issue of blood was determined to receive. She declared and acted upon her belief that if she touched Jesus' robe, she would be healed. And her words came to pass.
Her faith did it. Jesus told her so.
She was under the law, not under grace. How much more can we under grace have the same kind of faith and trust.
Hebrews 11:6 tells us that it is impossible to please God without faith. We MUST believe that 1) He IS and 2) He REWARDS those who diligently seek Him.
We have been given the measure of faith, but more faith, an increase of faith, comes by hearing and hearing and hearing the Word of God.
There is no faith in ignorance. Faith comes when we know what He has said about any situation we find ourselves in. We cannot believe without hearing first.
Matthew 9 tells the tale of two blind men who sought after Jesus. When He asked them if they believed that He could heal them, they both replied yes. Jesus told them, according to THEIR faith it would be done to them. It wasn't His power alone. It was faith in His power.
Expectation makes you move out in faith. You will position yourself where there is nothing to stand on except what you believe. No handrail. This is exactly what He wants, that we believe Him and trust Him so much that we make ourselves vulnerable.
The world may call you a fool. But God is calling your blessed.
