Wisdom For The Day Devotional 4 January 2024 By Bishop Mike Okonkwo – Be Expectant

TOPIC: Be Expectant (TREM Devotional 4 January 2024)

“My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from him.” Psalm 62:5 (KJV)

Wisdom For The Day MESSAGE:

As we go on this year, stay expectant. Expectation is the mother of miracles. What you do not expect, you may not receive.

I appreciate the fact that there are many distractions, that is why I am calling your attention this early in the Year to be expectant. Give quality time to the study of and meditation on the Word of God because everything you need is in the Word. Just the same way Peter said to the cripple at the gate Beautiful in Acts 3, I am challenging you to look unto God. Stay focused. Be expectant. The cripple looked at Peter expecting to receive something from them. I am sure he was expecting some coins, but he got more than coins, he got healing. His bones were restored. In the same way, as you look unto Jesus this year, He will exceed your expectations in Jesus’ name, you will not just get enough, you will get more than enough.

When God said it is the Year of “Great and Mighty Things”, it is not a play on words. The Word of God will not fall to the ground unfulfilled. It has already gone out of His mouth, it is bound to come to pass, but again, you must be ready to play your part. Don’t just read the devotional and take a walk, decide to act on it. This is not a religious ritual; it is a necessity to birth the glory that God has in store for you. I perceive 2024 is the Year you have been waiting for. God will do incredible things in righteousness. He will grant you speed. He will cause you to be celebrated on platforms you never imagined, but it will all come to pass as you hold on steadfastly to the Word. Take the declarations from the Exodus service seriously, declare them over your life again and again and be assured, you will testify.
