I want to ask you a personal question. How are you living your life? What do I mean you ask? Is your life a daily bore of knowing it’s just the same thing, just a different day of the week? Or are you waking up with a fire in your eye wondering what you and God are going to accomplish that day? That’s how we should live. In expectation.
Ephesians 3:20 in The Message starts out with, “God can do anything…you know…” but how many of us truly know that? Have you searched your mind and heart and dug up those past desires that somehow got buried beneath all of the everyday stuff we call life? What is it that would drive you to wake up with a spring in your step? What would cause you to never again hit the snooze button? That is what you need to take to the throne of God.
1 John 5:14-15 says, “And we are confident that He hears us whenever we ask for anything that pleases Him. 15 And since we know He hears us when we make our requests, we also know that He will give us what we ask for.”
Those are my two life scriptures this year. I know that God can do anything and I know that I can ask Him anything and if it be according to His Word I can expect to have it. Glory! I live my life in full expectation that not only will God fulfill what I’ve asked Him, but that I will live my life for Him and do the things that He has asked of me. It’s a partnership.
So I challenge you today to take something so big to the throne room of God, that if He doesn’t come through it won’t happen in the natural. And then stand back and expect. Expect that not only will He grant that desire, but as Ephesians continues on with, “…far more than you could ever imagine or guess or request in your wildest dreams!” Live your life in knowing that God is God and expecting that He truly can do anything and everything!
