WHAT DO YOU EXPECT?

WHAT DO YOU EXPECT?

“And in Lystra a certain man without strength in his feet was sitting, a cripple from his mother’s womb, who had never walked. This man heard Paul speaking. Paul, observing him intently and seeing that he had faith to be healed, said with a loud voice, “Stand up straight on your feet!” And he leaped and walked.” - [Acts 14:8-10]



Expectations are very rewarding.
Faith is massive!

I have heard people say something like "don't expect too much and you won't be disappointed"

I beg to disagree.

I think you should have high expectations in life.

Every expectation you have is what you would get.

The man in the text was listening to Paul and was filled with faith in His heart.

And Paul could feel his faith! WOW!
Paul could sense the weight of his expectation.
And Paul addressed his faith and the man was healed. His life was never the same again.

What's your expectation like?
Maybe you have none?
Or you have very little expectation.

Truth is, you will neither be disappointed nor blessed.

A life without expectations can never be a beneficiary of miracles.

The Man at the beautiful gate was expectant.
Hannah in Shiloh was expectant.
Blind Bartimaeus was expectant.

What are you expectant for?
I challenge you to believe God for your miracle. Expect it. Have faith and watch your story change.

I believe in you.

Looking at my life today, some might assume I was born with a golden spoon in my mouth. They see the progress, the platforms, the opportunities, the impact—and they conclude, “He must have had it all figured out from the start.” But here’s the truth... I wasn’t born with a golden spoon. In fact, I wasn’t even born with a spoon at all. The circumstances surrounding my birth were far from rosy. My beginning was rough, humble, and almost forgettable by the standards of this world. There was nothing to suggest that I would one day stand where I stand today, speak as I speak today, or do what I do today. But I was helped. I was helped by God. That’s the only reason I’ve come this far. And that, dear friend, is why I’m writing this—to remind you that it doesn’t matter where or how you were born . Your background, no matter how limiting or disadvantaged, cannot stop God’s plan for your life. You may not have had the best education. You may have been born into poverty. You may have been rejected, neglected, abandoned or overlooked. But when God steps into your life , He rewrites the story. He is not intimidated by your limitations. In fact, He specializes in using the foolish things of this world to confound the wise. He lifts the poor from the dust and sets them among princes (Psalm 113:7-8). You don’t need a silver spoon, golden spoon, or any spoon at all. All you need is His help . My life is a testament to this truth: God still helps men. He still lifts. He still promotes. He still turns nobodies into wonders. And I believe the same will happen for you. If you will let Him, If you will trust Him, If you will surrender your life to Him… You will become a miracle. You will become a wonder. Your story will be one that generations will talk about. So here’s my charge to you: Stop disqualifying yourself based on your background. Stop underestimating what God can do through you. Stop comparing your journey with someone else’s. Instead, start seeking God’s help. Start walking in faith. Start declaring His promises over your life. Because your story—yes, YOUR story—is not over yet. In fact, it’s just beginning. You are next in line for a miracle. I believe in you!
