TEXT: “For surely there is an end; and thine expectation shall not be cut off” (Prov 23:18)
I welcome you again to October 2023. This month, your God and my God shall visit you and turn things around for your good, in Jesus name.
What is divine visitation? It means supernatural encounters with God. Encounters with God with testimonies as proofs as in the case of Sarah in Genesis 21. There are times when God visits His children in order to turn their situations around for good. Your own time for such visitation has come. I want you to be desperate for God’s visitation this month. Don’t look for short cut out of your situation so your life won’t be cut short. Learn to concentrate more on Jesus this month, you will encounter Him.
There are keys that will set the stage for your encounters this month. These keys help you to position rightly for God’s visitation.
The first key I will start with is:
- EXPECTATION: I want you to create a very high expectation if there will be manifestations in your life this month. The woman with the issue of blood in Mark 5:25 said: “If I may but touch His garment, I will be made whole.” That was a precise expectation. And of course, she had what she expected. Like I always say, what you don’t expect you cannot experience. If God will visit you this month, you must have an expectation with your actions to prove. The woman with the issue of blood had an expectation and put it into action and she got what she wanted.
Our expectations have a lot to do with what happens to us in life. Many are held down or lifted up today by what they expect daily. If you expect the worst to happen, that is what you will get and if you expect the best to come out of your situation, that is what you will see. Your experience is a product of your expectation.
In Acts 3:1-10 is a story of a man who was lame from birth and was carried to the temple to beg for money each day. This man’s life revolved around his sickness day in, day out. But one day things changed. The Bible says that the man gave the apostles his attention, expecting to receive something from them. This man activated his faith and received his miracle right then and there because he was expectant! Expect God’s visitation in your life, family, career, marriage, relationship or ministry this month.
Expectation puts your heart in a state of preparedness to receive. Add actions to your expectations this month and you shall testify of it, in Jesus name!
DAILY CONFESSION: This year 2023, I am finally on a Covenant Highway, Jesus is giving me Answers and I am enjoying Rest Round About – Amen and Amen!
FOOD FOR THOUGHT: “Your experience is a product of your expectation.”
