COME EXPECTING


Have you noticed that Jesus oftentimes asked a person what they wanted from Him? There was a faith action on their part. He demonstrated that He came to heal; but for some, they had to be part of their own miracle.


This is not a works mentality, but it is one of the ways that healing manifests. I know who the water needs to be stirred for and who needs to go to the river and wash themselves. Some miracles are immediate and some are progressive. It is all about faith, obedience and desire.


You cannot be spiritually lazy and expect others to do what I have given you to do. Follow the leading of My Spirit and you will know what is required of you. For I am a good Father and I give good gifts to My children. Some need to learn to walk on their own and others need to be carried in by their friends. Either way, come expecting, for I am still in the business of healing the sick and raising dead things. Come, My child. Come expecting. 


Mark 10:51 Contemporary English Version (CEV)

Jesus asked, “What do you want me to do for you?” The blind man answered, “Master, I want to see!”


Luke 18:6-8 The Passion Translation (TPT)

6 The Lord continued, “Did you hear what the ungodly judge said—that he would answer her persistent request? 7 Don’t you know that God, the true judge, will grant justice to all of his chosen ones who cry out to him night and day? He will pour out his Spirit upon them.[a] He will not delay to answer you and give you what you ask for. 8 God will give swift justice to those who don’t give up. So be ever praying, ever expecting, just like the widow was with the judge. Yet when the Son of Man comes back, will he find this kind of persistent faithfulness in his people?”


John 5:6-9 New King James Version (NKJV)

6 When Jesus saw him lying there, and knew that he already had been in that condition a long time, He said to him, “Do you want to be made well?”

7 The sick man answered Him, “Sir, I have no man to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up; but while I am coming, another steps down before me.”

8 Jesus said to him, “Rise, take up your bed and walk.” 9 And immediately the man was made well, took up his bed, and walked. And that day was the Sabbath.


2 Kings 5:13-14 Amplified Bible (AMP)

13 Then his servants approached and said to him, “My father, if the prophet had told you to do some great thing, would you not have done it? How much more then, when he has said to you, ‘Wash, and be clean?’” 14 So he went down and plunged himself into the Jordan seven times, just as the man of God had said; and his flesh was restored like that of a little child and he was clean.


Mark 2:2b-5 The Passion Translation (TPT)

2b While Jesus was preaching the word of God, 3 four men arrived, carrying a paralyzed man. 4 But when they realized that they couldn’t even get near him because of the crowd, they went up on top of the house and tore away the roof above Jesus’ head. And when they had broken through, they lowered the paralyzed man on a stretcher right down in front of him! 5 When Jesus saw the extent of their faith, he said to the paralyzed man, “My son, your sins are now forgiven.”


Proverbs 13:4 The soul of a lazy man desires, and has nothing; but the soul of the diligent shall be made rich.
