Great Expectation and Higher Heights!

TOYE OGUNGBE·FRIDAY, JANUARY 26, 2018·

Shalom brethren and welcome again to 2018 our year of Great Expectation and Higher Heights. Towards the end of last year I heard a whisper in my spirit saying: “expectation precedes a miracle.” And this has lingered on in my mind into the new year, so I have decided to face 2018 consciously expecting the LORD’S GOODNESS, FAVOUR, MERCY AND BLESSING and may that also be your portion in the name of Lord Jesus Christ. Proverbs 28:13 KJV declares: “For surely there is an end; and thine expectation shall not be cut off.” It will surely come; your promotion, healing, deliverance and prosperity! Face every day with great expectation. His thoughts towards us are good and not evil to give us an EXPECTED end. You will seek Me and find Me when you search for Me with all your heart. The word “search” in this scripture comes from the Hebrew word “darash” which means to be in close pursuit. In 2018, we must intensify our prayer and study of God’s word. Deep calls unto deep!

We must stand our ground upon God’s precious promises until we see results. We are moving forward and going to the top! Deuteronomy 28:13 declares,” the LORD will make you the head and not the tail; you will only move upward and never downward if you listen to the LORD...” The LORD is determined to lift us to higher heights this year as we call upon His name! In Psalm 91:14, we find another promise of God stating: “ I will set him on high, because he has known my name.” Do you know His name? He is the Most High God; the ancient of days; El Gibor, the mighty God; El Shaddai, the all sufficient God; the One who is immortal and lives in unapproachable light; the One who rides upon the wings of the wind; the God and Father of our LORD Jesus Christ; the God of Elijah that answers by fire; the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob; the Alpha and the Omega; the first born from the dead; the author of our salvation; the author and finisher of our faith; our high priest in the order of Melchizedek; the mediator of the new covenant; the Rock of ages; the Rose of Sharon; the Rod from the stem of Jesse; the Son of Jesse; the sun of righteousness with healing in His wings; the Son of David, the Great Physician; the Balm of Gilead; the One who baptizes with Holy Spirit and fire; our comforter; our standby; our helper; the teacher of the church; the teacher of literature; the teacher of science; the One who knows all things; the excellent Spirit, the indwelling presence of God; the Spirit of truth; the Spirit of Christ! He is saying to us: “Call to Me and I will answer you and show you great and mighty things you know not.” Get ready to receive isolated and inaccessible information that can only be revealed by God’s Spirit.
