Increase your Expectancy for the Double Portion

Posted on by

IMG_4921In a time of corporate worship, I sensed the Spirit saying, “Increase your expectancy for Me to do far above what you can pray or think” – whatever your circumstances may be.

1 Corinthians 2:9 (NKJV)

 “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard,

Nor have entered into the heart of man

The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.”

 We need to take our eyes off the difficulty of the circumstances or the size of the mountain before us, letting go of negative expectancy and fix our eyes on Jesus, the Author and Finisher of our faith. He will give us the victory.

In this meeting a lady, who had a big struggle with a family situation, received total freedom and great joy as she let go of the burden, putting her trust and expectancy in Jesus to work it out.

Hebrews 12:1-2 (NKJV)

The Race of Faith

“Therefore we also, since we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which so easily ensnares us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.”

 The great cloud of witnesses shows us that there are many who have come through life’s difficulties victoriously, cheering us on to persevere by faith!  The instruction is to throw off the worries and cares (burdens) and the sin (of unbelief and doubt), looking unto Jesus who will take us through.  He showed us the way of perseverance while going through the most horrific events thinkable, because His eyes were on the end-result – the joy which He kept before Him in seeing His Bride by faith and receiving His place as the Victorious One at the right hand of the throne of God.

So, instead of expecting the negative, pray for God’s glory to invade your situations, praising Him for His favor, grace and lovingkindness to work things out for His glory – then raise your expectancy for miracles!

Then twice the Lord gave me the following Word, which is repeated twice in this passage).

“Instead of your shame you will receive a double portion,

and instead of disgrace (confusion) you will rejoice in your inheritance (portion)

And so you will inherit a double portion in your land, and everlasting joy will be yours.” – Isaiah 61:7

A double portion is coming to those who will keep trusting the Lord, their eyes fixed on Him to do the seemingly impossible.

Do not let the difficulty of your situation limit your expectancy, but fix your eyes on the Victorious One, remembering that all things are possible for those who believe (Mark 9:23).   Hallelujah!

Therefore, whatever your current challenge, struggle or mountain may be, let go of your limited natural sight and understanding.  Look away from the problem and look unto the amazing miracle power and might of our Lord.  Only believe with great expectancy for your double portion inheritance and let the sound of His Word recalibrate your mindset and you declare the victory with rejoicing!   Glory to God!

Day 17 – The Testimony of Jesus

Posted on by

Day 17 – 

“The testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy” Rev. 19:10

The root word of testimony in the Hebrew means “do again”.  When we testify of the wonderworking power of the Lord, we are prophesying that He will do it again.

I have received various testimonies of Jesus breaking through for people in different areas of their lives.  Today I received the testimonies of four people who have had personal spiritual breakthroughs into freedom from a place of oppression where they have been completely downcast into a place where they now have fresh vision and have entered into a place of freedom with great joy.

Many have been going through discouragement and hopelessness, but this is just an assignment of the spirit of Python that wants to strangle you so that you cannot see your future and destiny in Christ.

I want to encourage each of you to start praising the Lord will all your might for His almighty power to break you through, break you out and break you free from any assignment of the enemy.  For those who will do this, I prophesy that the Lord Jesus has come to set you free from captivity and He will give you the breakthrough in all areas as you put your trust in Him, praising Him as the Lord of the breakthrough!  So increase your praise!  Take Him on His Word that He will do it again as you testify of His wonderworking power, His glory, His goodness, His grace and mercy and rejoice in your victory today for everything you are believing Him for!

If you have had any breakthrough so far, start testifying of God’s grace to the people around you too, giving God all the glory! I love hearing your testimonies, so please keep writing to me so that we can all rejoice together and be encouraged!  Hallelujah!

Blessings to you all
