EXPECT ONLY GOOD TO HAPPEN TO YOU

“For I know the thoughts that I think towards you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.”

Jeremiah 29:11(KJV)


Do you know that some people wake up in the morning with thoughts of bad things that may happen to them? Such people are so negatively minded. What a miserable life! Contrary to such thoughts, God has only good plans for you. He is favourably disposed to lift you and give you your position in the scheme of life. He is willing to open doors of blessing for you and enlarge your coast. That is the God that we serve!


Just love him! Wake up in the morning and expect good things to happen to you. Good things happen to those who expect it to happen to them because good will always attract good. Don’t wake up in the morning wondering who is going to attack me again today? Am I going to end up in the hospital? No! Rather, expect good things to happen to you. You say to yourself: “This is the day the Lord has made. I will rejoice and be glad in it. It is a brand-new day and it is made for me. It is packaged by God for me”. All the weight and challenges you had before you went to bed will all pass away because it is a new day and you are still alive.


Don’t leave your house miserable. Rather, always be excited about God. He is your Daddy! You are not under bondage. You are free from sicknesses and diseases. You are entitled to enjoy only His goodness. The Bible tells us that the earth is full of your Daddy’s goodness; and since it is full of His goodness, you have your portion in the land. Your Daddy owns the land, so you must possess your possessions. Don’t just know him as God. Know him as Abba and watch all His goodness gravitate towards you. Only good is permitted in your life. Expect it to be so and it shall be so in Jesus Name.
