Faith That Can Stop The Sun – Joshua 10 – Encounter Houston – Brent Phillips
Our expectation makes all the difference when it comes to experiencing God
John 1:47-50 “As they approached, Jesus said, “Now here is a genuine son of Israel—a man of complete integrity.” “How do you know about me?” Nathanael asked. Jesus replied, “I could see you under the fig tree before Philip found you.” Then Nathanael exclaimed, “Rabbi, you are the Son of God—the King of Israel!” Jesus asked him, “Do you believe this just because I told you I had seen you under the fig tree? You will see greater things than this.”
God wants to show us greater things, but we have to know that He will only meet us at the level of which we are expecting Him. So many times we allow our disappointments or our limited outlook on God to limit the way that we read scripture.
You can live life two ways; you can either live with a positive expectation or with a negative expectation.
Mark 9:23 “What do you mean, ‘If I can’?” Jesus asked. “Anything is possible if a person believes.”
What are you thinking and expecting when it comes to God? God wants to invest in your life and help you succeed, He isn’t trying to limit you or stop you. He is trying to push you forward.
Are you creating an atmosphere for God to move? What you expect from God will determine how much you see of God in your life.
Joshua 10:12-13 “On the day the Lord gave the Israelites victory over the Amorites, Joshua prayed to the Lord in front of all the people of Israel. He said, “Let the sun stand still over Gibeon, and the moon over the valley of Aijalon.” So the sun stood still and the moon stayed in place until the nation of Israel had defeated its enemies.”
The Lord heard Joshua’s prayers and He stopped the moon and the sun for him! Can you imagine what it is that He could to do for us all if only we would start to expect Him to do the impossible once again
