Are you expecting a miracle today?

When I was a young child my grandmother used to listen to Oral Roberts. Every time that he would preach he would always say, "Expect a miracle today." I used to think casually, OK. Now my thinking is no longer casual. We have experienced the miracles of God.

The scripture that my husband put on facebook today says,

Mat 7:6 (MSG) "Don't be flip with the sacred. Banter and silliness give no honor to God. Don't reduce holy mysteries to slogans. In trying to be relevant, you're only being cute and inviting sacrilege."

Don't take lightly the things of God. Read his Word and BELIEVE the things that he says. Believe today if you are sick that God will heal you, believe today that God will remove evil spirits from among you, believe that God is with you. Luk 7:21 "In that very hour Jesus was healing many [people] of sicknesses and distressing bodily plagues and evil spirits, and to many who were blind He gave [a free, gracious, joy-giving gift of] sight". Not because I tell you this, but because it is in His Word. His Word should be taken lightly.

(AMP) Psalms 119:105 says “Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.” What exactly does that scripture say to you? Well, let’s back up in Psalms 119:5 God has already said in the AMP version, “Oh, that my ways were directed and established to observe Your statutes” [hearing, receiving, loving, and obeying them]!

What does that scripture say to you? Allow God to speak to you today and answer this question. Do you take lightly the things of God? Watch yourself today, believe in His Word and see that you do not take God’s Word lightly for there is POWER in the Word of God.
