Hey there, faith-driven founders and execs! Today, I want to dive into a powerful message inspired by Jerry Savelle's teachings and my own reflections: "Expect the Unexpected." This sermon is built around Hebrews 4:2, reminding us to combine our faith with the divine Word for true transformation and breakthroughs.
Embrace God’s Surprising Ways
Let's kick things off with Job 5:9 – "He performs wonders that cannot be fathomed, miracles that cannot be counted." Ever felt stuck, like there's no way out? Remember how God delivered Samaria from famine overnight in 2 Kings 7 through Elisha’s prophecy? It’s a potent reminder that God’s ways are beyond our understanding and can manifest in the most unexpected moments. Keep your heart open and stay anchored in faith, even when the outcomes aren’t visible yet.
Activate Miracles with Faith
Consider the centurion's story in Matthew 8:5-13. His unwavering belief in Jesus’ word alone led to his servant's healing. This narrative highlights the power of faith spoken with conviction. Are you verbalizing your faith over challenging situations? Speak life and believe in God’s immediate and powerful response, just like the centurion did.
Trust in God’s Perfect Timing and Methods
Isaiah 55:8-9 reminds us that God’s thoughts and ways are far above ours. Look at the miracles in the Bible, like Jesus turning water into wine. God’s solutions often exceed our expectations and come in the most surprising forms. Patience and confidence in God’s timing are crucial. He’s orchestrating the best outcomes behind the scenes, even when we can’t see it.
The Power of Testimonies
Revelation 12:11 speaks of overcoming by the word of our testimony. Sharing your stories of God’s unexpected blessings can strengthen your faith and encourage others. Have you experienced a miraculous intervention? Don’t keep it to yourself. Share it and watch it become a powerful weapon against doubt and a catalyst for communal and individual faith growth.
Bringing It All Together
So, what’s the takeaway? God operates beyond our expectations. Embrace a daily anticipation of His interventions. Challenge yourself to live in expectancy, ready to receive and share the incredible ways God moves in your life.
