TOPIC : THE POWER OF EXPECTATION
TEXT JOHN 11: 20-23
[20]Then Martha, as soon as she heard that Jesus was coming, went and met him: but Mary sat still in the house.
[21]Then said Martha unto Jesus, Lord, if thou hadst been here, my brother had not died.
[22]But I know, that even now, whatsoever thou wilt ask of God, God will give it thee.
[23]Jesus saith unto her, Thy brother shall rise again.
This was the story of a family that loved the Lord Jesus so much.
The bible recorded that Jesus loved them so much also.
Their brother Lazarus was sick and they sent for Jesus.
Jesus delayed and by the time He got there, Lazarus had died.
The highlighted scriptures were Martha's declaration of her expectations as captured by the book of John.
She said in verse 21&22, Lord if you had been here my brother would not have died but now that you are here, my expectation is that you will bring him back if you talk to your Father.
It was her expectation that sponsored that miracle.
Heaven respected her expectations.
May Heaven honour your expectations in Jesus mighty name, Amen.
God bless you.
With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible.
Your case is not bigger than God.
May you have a God filled day in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
Your Victory is already guaranteed
It is well, do not give up, with God all things are possible
