As I looked at them this morning I felt the Lord asking me “What am I expecting from Him?” Am I reading things in His word and expecting Him to produce what He has promised? Do I believe His Word like I do the label on my daffodil pot?!
Is it possible that we see the beginning of the promise begin to grow, like my bulbs, and then forget to water it? By that I mean do we thank the Lord for every little sign of growth in ourselves and in our situations, the things we’re believing for, or do we become lazy and not feed regularly on His Word so it nourishes us and fertilises the promises we’re believing for?
Scientists have proved that you can kill plants by speaking negatively to them or you can make them flourish by speaking kindly and positively to them! What are we speaking over our lives, are we expecting God’s promises to grow and produce what He says? When we see an improvement in something we’re believing for, do we nourish it by praising and thanking God for it? Or do we inadvertently kill it by speaking negatively about it. “Oh, it’ll never change. It’ll always be this way!”
Let’s have a great expectancy of good things from God, and speak them out, declare the goodness of our God, that His promises never fail, that He is faithful to deliver, heal and restore whatever we’re believing for.
Isaiah 55:11 NLT It is the same with my word. I send it out, and it always produces fruit. It will accomplish all I want it to, and it will prosper everywhere I send it.God made daffodil bulbs to produce daffodils. Now we can expect God’s word to produce what He has said in His Word - fulfilled promises of healing, protection and provision. We can expect great things! Amen in Jesus.😊
