I Choose Joy - Understanding the Power of Expectations, Part 2


Listen Later

Chip wraps up this series by explaining how the power of expectations can transform ordinary people into people of great faith. He tells us that through the joy Christ offers, we have the supernatural ability to live far above our circumstances.

KEY #4: Expectation

  • What are my expectations? -Philippians 1:27-30

What does God expect?

  • Consistent conduct -Philippians 1:27a

What does"consistent conduct" look like?

  • Stand firm = Don't give up
  • Contending = Don't give in
  • Not frightened = Don't shrink back

What can we expect from God?

  • 2 Gifts = Granted: a privilege or "gracious gift" AND Struggle: Conflict, suffering, persecution

Six possible reasons we suffer:

1. My sin --Galatians 6:7-8

2. Others' sins --Psalm 49:1

3. Spiritual attack --Job, Ephesians 6

4. Fallen world --Luke 13

5. Spiritual disicipline --Hewbrews 12

6. Spiritual development --2 Corinthians 12:9-10
