EXPECTATION IS THE LINK BETWEEN ASKING AND RECEIVING!
Another Shiloh is here, the Best One ever. Give God glory for keeping you alive, making you to see Shiloh 2020. Thank Him from the depth of your heart, let your thanks be as intense as your prayer. Give Him the glory due to Him.
Lord, give me another Pre-Shiloh Encounter by Your Word. Prepare Me for the main Shiloh sessions. Prepare Me by your Word.
Shiloh 2020: Turnaround Encounters.
Engaging The Power of Expectation For Our Desired Turnaround
If turnaround is your desire, then expectation is the demand. With God, everything that man desires is available but with a demand on it. God makes everything available free but taking the things are not free. There is what to do, there is a price to pay, to take delivery for everything that God has in stock for us. Freely available but not freely taken. Only people with expectation can partake of what is available.
Just like no car can move without engaging the gear, Turnaround is never in view without engaging the power of expectation.
“I engage the power of expectation!”
Expectation is key and when you talk about key, you talk about vital.
What is vital, what is key, what is prominent, what is most needful? Expectation is key for provoking divine intervention on any issue of interest to us.
No Expectation, No Divine Intervention.
Human expectation is what provokes divine manifestation on any issue of interest to us (Proverbs 24:14).
One thing that can never be cut off is your expectation. Once God finds expectation, He moves in your direction. It is the key that turns God on for manifestation.
“The things, I expect is from Him, so I will wait” (Psalm 62:5).
We saw how Elijah waited for his expectation, not just waiting, folding his arms but waiting in expectation (1 Kings 18:1-10, 40-46). God him told there will be rain, he went upon the mountain, put his head in between his knees in prayer and when he was done, expectation took over. What takes over after intercession and supplication is Expectation.
Intercession and Supplication without Expectation is Exercise in Futility. Don’t bother to pray if you are not expecting because it will not be attended to.
Elijah sent his servant, “go and check”, I’m expecting (1 Kings 18:44). This young man went, checked and said, ‘no show’. Elijah said, “No, my agreement is that it must come. Something is coming.”
Something is coming for me at Shiloh 2020:
That thing you are expecting will surely come.
We know the story, because of expectation, there was no sign, but because of expectation, a cloud was formed (1 Kings 18:45).
When you pray, your prayer is registered before God but when you expect, the miracle is formed.
There was no sign but when he prayed, the cloud was formed (1 Kings 18:45).
The formation of your miracle is at the instance of your expectation.
I have prayed, I have fasted. I have interceded, God said, there is one more thing that I’m waiting for: I’m waiting for your expectation.
If you can believe (Expect based on the Word), all things are possible to Him who expects (Mark 9:23). All things are possible to Him that is expecting it.
Earlier in our personal supplication this morning, Matthew chapter 21 verse 22 makes it another very strong point: what things so ever, ye shall ask in prayer, expecting, you shall receive. The word ‘believing’ means ‘expecting.’
Listen to this: God does not answer you according to your prayer because you say many things in your prayers. He answers you according to your expectation. So every time you are praying, God is checking for the content of your expectation. What makes prayer tick is the content of expectation!
Is there expectation in your prayer?
Is there expectation in your intercession and supplication?
If it is not there, forget it. Therefore, whatever anyone of us expects at Shiloh 2020 which begins Today shall surely return as a Testimony.
Expectation is the linkage between asking and receiving.
Expectation is the linkage between supplication and testimony.
Expectation is the catalyst that turns your intercession to a testimony.
Don’t pray for fun, pray for testimony. To pray for testimony, put expectation in it. There is nothing we are looking for that God does not have (Proverbs 3:27-28). He has it by His side, God will not go to look for it, it is available to you, to the limit of your expectation.
To Enhance Your Expectation:
Be in the Spirit. “I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day, then my expectation came. I heard the voice of the Lord” (Revelation 1:10). Build up in the Spirit, don’t let anything distract you from the Spirit at this moment. Build up in the Spirit, be in the Spirit, sing in the Spirit, pray in the Spirit (Jude1:20, Ephesians 6:18)
Watching, be on the lookout! Watch. Be on the lookout like Elijah, “I know the answer is coming.”
Somebody’s own (answer) is coming even after this Covenant Hour of Prayer.
While others are coming to expect their own in tonight’s opening, somebody is sharing his testimony.
By tonight, somebody is sharing her own testimony.
Tomorrow morning, somebody is sharing her own testimony.
In the evening, somebody else is sharing his testimony.
SPEAK OUT YOUR EXPECTATION:
Expectation is never silent. Expectation is loud. Speak it Loud if you want to take it Large. Expectation is always loud, always large. Make it Loud if you want God to give you Large.
Foremost device of the enemy remains Distraction!!!
Something is coming, he (devil) wants to distract so that when it comes, it will just pass you by.
None of your expectation will pass you by.
Your own heart desire will not pass you by.
Prayer: Father, rescue me from distraction. On this Mountain, I will not be distracted. On Mountain of Shiloh, Mountain of Transformation, Mountain of turning shame to fame, I will not be distracted.
Profess it on yourself, declare it on yourself: I give no room to distraction!!!
Nothing will distract me: internally, around me, in my environment. Physically, spiritually, mentally, I will not be distracted.
Expectation is fueled with Thanksgiving:
Thank God with assurance, that what you desire is already done. Raise your voice, thank Him intensely. It is already done.
