Dearly Beloved:
In prayer today, the Holy Spirit spoke to my heart about
four expectations that God's people should trust him to
bring to pass in 2006. These expectations are based on
absolute promises God has made to us. God is a
promise-maker and a promise-keeper.
1. EXPECT TO BE REWARDED AS YOU DILIGENTLY SEEK THE LORD IN
2006. "God is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him"
(Hebrews 11:6).
You can ask in faith for a token for God to encourage and
rekindle your confidence. God is always on time, and he
knows you need a ray of hope and good news in your testing
time. Expect him to keep his promise to reward you now when
you are in greatest need. God cannot lie. He said he
rewards those who diligently seek him. Seek him daily and
truly believe 2006 will be your year of great spiritual
blessing.
2. EXPECT TO SEE EVIDENCE OF A PROGRESSIVE MIRACLE IN YOUR
LIFE IN 2006. "With God all things are possible" (Mark
10:27).
I have written about instantaneous miracles and progressive
miracles. Progressive miracles start in unseen, quiet ways
and unfold little by little, one small mercy act at a time.
You are now in such a miracle. Expect to see God working in
mysterious ways, unseen to the human eye. This should be
the year you can say, "I don't know how; I don't see much
happening; but I believe God set in motion an answer to my
prayers the hour I first asked."
3. EXPECT TO ENTER INTO GOD'S PROMISED PLACE OF REST IN
2006. "There remaineth therefore a rest to the people of
God...enter into that rest" (Hebrews 4:9, 11).
Last year was one of the most stressful for many believers.
It was a year of incredible calamities, problems and
trials. This year the Lord desires that you believe him to
bring you into his promised rest. God never intended that
his children live in fear and despair. We need a reckless
faith, a trust in God in the face of fear, trouble and
death itself. The year 2006 is the year to lay it all on
Jesus.
4. EXPECT THE HOLY SPIRIT TO BE ALWAYS IN HIS TEMPLE IN
2006. "Know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy
Spirit" (1 Corinthians 6:19).
The Holy Spirit abides in the heart of the believer. He is
omnipresent throughout the world and universe. I face each
day acknowledging that he is here in his temple to comfort
me, guide me, encourage me, anoint me, and to reveal the
glory of Jesus Christ in ever-increasing revelations. In
2006 he desires that you expect him to make his presence
manifest to you, and more so each passing day.
Believe these promises! Lay hold of these four expectations
and you will see marvelous things this next year.
Your missions gift is so vital to the ongoing worldwide
outreaches of our ministry to widows, orphans, the addicted
and the poor and hungry.
God bless and keep you in all your ways.
In Christ,
DAVID WILKERSON
