Love you all, praying for you.
God challenging me today. What do you expect? God is good – He said it. See the PRISM Topic - God has good for you, He promised it. Is that what you expect? Do you remember when you were little, and Mom said we were going out to McDonalds for dinner when Daddy gets home. Milkshakes, French Fries, Playland, what could be better than that! The whole day was awesome – every time you thought of it, you couldn’t wait until Daddy gets home. You just expected the best, and your spirit was lifted – just thinking about it. God said He’s like that. Do you expect good from Him? He’s good. Or do you doubt it will happen. God tells us to expect and not doubt. James calls it double-minded. “That man should not expect to receive anything from the LORD, He is a double-minded man – unstable in all his ways. (James 1:7-8). God wants you to ask and expect, not doubt. There are some pre-requisites. Some hope, but doubt because they are not aligned with what brings God’s blessing. If you are sinning, if your lifestyle and wordstyle doesn’t match His Word, you can’t expect to get the blessings that He gives to those who keep His commands. If your words don’t line up with His Word – you just keep getting what you speak. God’s trying to bless you – but your words are talking you out of it – literally. Praying that you will soak in PRISM today and every day – come back to His Word. It increases your knowledge of Him, and your expectation. Every time He speaks something happens. Praying that you would do PRISM out loud – so when you speak – it’s what He speaks. Don’t expect in vain. If you’re sinning – it blocks His blessing, if your words are doubt – you’re unstable, if you are just asking Him for things to “spend on your own pleasures,” God’s blessing doesn’t flow on self-centered people. But if you are Praising, If you are humble (seeking and heeding counsel – from any source He sends) If you fear God and turn from evil, if you commit yourself with your mouth – and fully obey anything He tells you. You can expect the God of all good – to unleash His goodness in your life. You're going to McDonalds tonight - you can expect it! Praying that you will have high expectations today for His Good – great expectations. And finally – understand seasons. If you are coming out of a season of sin, doubt or slow obedience… maybe you sowed some bad seed and are reaping what you’ve sown – but now you are sowing good seed. Be encouraged. Don't despise small beginnings. If you don’t see results immediately – you might just be between harvests. Keep sowing seed of truth – with your Mouth in Praise, and your actions in obedience. Give time for God to bring the new harvest of the new seed you are sowing. And you can expect God’s Good to take root and overflow in your life. Praying that PiVAT has you hearing and obeying, that PRISM has you hearing and believing, and that your Daily Call has you always giving testimony and overcoming! Love you all, dad
