What you expect is what you believe. And whatever you believe, you receive. (Mk 11:24)
The world tells us "Do not expect this. Do not expect that." This is to prevent disappointment and discouragement.
But the Word tells us that God can do exceedingly abundantly above ALL you ask or think, ACCORDING to His power that is at work WITHIN us. (Eph 3:20)
If it's ACCORDING to what is WITHIN us, it means that you and I play the VITAL role.
When I have seen something happening over and over again, I stop praying, commanding or using words. I start expecting it to take place again and again.
There are certain ailments and sicknesses that I have seen healed over and over again, such that I no longer pray or command for people to be healed. I expect it each time when I see it.
To make it practical and easy for you to understand, I give you an example. If there are uneven legs due to uneven spine, when I lift up the legs, I expect them to straighten up. Without a word spoken, the leg starts moving on it's own; the spine starts straightening by itself.
Because the world outside us responds to the Word within us. Our expectation causes the external to conform to the internal.
The Word doesn't submit to anything or anyone. But everything and everyone must submit to the Word. Because ALL things were created by the Word and for the Word (Col 1:16).
Each time when we EXPECT the outcome, the Word manifests Himself. Your expectation goes way FASTER than the words coming out of your mouth.
Your inspection of the Word must move you on the inside to your expectation of the Word, so that the world outside you will respect what you expect and submit to it in obedience.
