Miracles producing expectations
Memorise: Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Hebrews 11:1
Having expectations depends on many variables particularly if we are talking about having expectations of God. One of these variables is the promise. If God has made you a promise, then you have the right to expect that the promise will be fulfilled. In Genesis 8:22, the Almighty God made a promise. It is based on this promise that the expectation of a farmer rests. He said as long as the earth remains, seed time and harvest shall never cease. This promise of God is the basis on which a farmer planting a seed expects that there will be a harvest. Another variable which expectations depend upon is the integrity of the one giving the promise. If you are dealing with a man who doesn’t keep his promises, you don’t  expect anything from him. If you are dealing with a man who in the past said “ I am going to the right” and you discovered he want to the left, the next time he says “ I am coming”, you will know he is going. Thank God that Numbers 23:19 says clearly that our God is not a man that He should lie. Once He makes a promise, you can go to bed knowing it will be fulfilled. The resources and ability of the one who has made a promise is another foundation upon which an expectation depends. There was a time I visited my village and a little boy ran to me asking for a pair of shoes for Christmas. I promised to buy him one. The young boy started spreading the news that he would soon own a brand new pair of shoes. His mates did not believe him until he told them that it was “Lagos Daddy” (as I was being called then) that promised him a pair of shoes. The reason bring that, apart from the fact that they all knew that whatever “Daddy from Lagos” promised to do he would do; they also knew that God had blessed him with the wherewithal to keep his promises.
In our Bible reading for today, the woman with the issue of blood had a miracle-producing expectation. This woman sought Jesus Christ with great expectation and she got what she wanted –a miracle of healing. It is unfortunate that many people go to the presence of God without an iota of expectation, whereas the Bible is Isaiah 45:19 says:
“I have not spoken in secret, in a dark place of the earth: I said not unto the seed of Jacob, seek ye me in vain:”
I want to encourage you to begin to seek and trust the miracle-working God with great expectations for salvations healing and astonishing breakthrough. I prophesy to your life that the mouth-opening miracle you have been expecting will come your way this season in Jesus Name.
Prayer point
Father, my expectations is to have blessings that will overflow unto many nations; please bring this to fulfilment in the Name of Jesus.
