Expectation

"Faith is the subtance of things hoped for."
Hebrews 11:1

Expectation is the sign that our faith has been
activated.
The word for "hope" means to have an
anticipation, a positive expectation.

Jesus also related faith to expectation.
He said, "Whoever says to this mountain, 'Be
removed and be cast into the sea,' and does
not doubt in his heart, but believes that those
things he says will be done, he will have
whatever he says"
Mark 11:23

If we get down and pray about something
and we get up and have to expectation that
it is going to happen, then we have activated
our faith for it.
If we pray and then say we will have see what
happens, we didn't have a living expectation
and we haven't released our faith into the
situation.

Faith is the substance, the underlying reality
of the things we expect to see come to pass.
Expectation is the evidence that our faith has
been activated and is powerfully at work to
bring it to pass.

Faith is based on the Word.
It comes by hearing the Word.

When we take God at His Word and release
it into our lives by what we say, we can be
confident that we will have whatever we say.

Expectation is the sign of a lively and active
faith at work.
It we have no expectation, that answer is
simple....Go back to the Word until faith
comes, then turn it loose by your words.
