Expectation
© 2013 Esther Hunter Ministries


Expectation is all about what you believe. Yes... it's about your outlook and what you believe will happen, can happen or should happen in your life. This year, examine closely how you see things internally. Notice, I did not say, examine how you feel about things, because your feelings may fluctuate from day to day... I often tell women that our feelings or emotions are like “motions of the sea” swaying back and forth. So when I say examine how you see things, I am saying get in touch with the deeper thoughts within your heart. That is the center of your belief system. I am reminded of something I heard @RealRodParsley say many years ago that “The atmosphere of expectancy is the breeding ground for miracles!” Well, I have decided to expect supernatural increase, favor, and fulfillment of promises. What do you believe will happen in your life? Think about it and decide to shift your thoughts to higher levels. After all, if God is going to bless someone, it might as well be YOU!

Transformational Expectations: It's Time To Believe

  • Expect to have Gods favor in your everyday situations.
  • Expect to have favor with people who you may have never known before.
  • Expect to overcome any obstacles standing in the way of your destiny.
  • Expect to experience increase in your social, emotional, financial, spiritual and physical well being.
  • Expect to see every negative turned into a positive outcome because you are in right standing with God.
  • Expect to receive restoration from things you lost, divine reversals and double-portion.
  • Expect to never see the righteous forsaken.
  • Expect to see your foes be made your footstool.
  • Expect to see progress in your business, ministry & family like never before.
  • Expect to have all shame and disappointment leave your life.
  • Expect to experience new relationships that are destined by God to sharpen you.
  • Expect to Be A Blessing and not just Receive Blessings.

Ephesians 3:20gives you legal and spiritual ground for expecting what you just confessed. Don't let anything or anyone move you from your expectations. Faith without works is fruitless; however, God has promised to bless the work of your hands and you should expect that. God is “able to carry out His purpose and do super abundantly, far over and above all that we dare ask or think. Infinitely beyond our highest prayers, desires, thoughts, hopes, or dreams.” (Ephesians 3:20 AMP)

Challenges
(copyright 2013 EstherHunterMinistries)

Challenges or obstacles, are necessary for your V.I.S.I.O.N to manifest. In fact, they bring out the strength within you. I know you may be thinking, this obstacle has brought out the worst in me...however, consider with me, the extent of the difficulty, and your ability to rise above it. If life brought it to you, God can bring you through it. This is where your belief in God and his word are vital. Your dominance over the obstacle is not in the making it is already decided! One key to your victory, when you encounter challenges, is to have a clear understanding of the unconditional love of God. We often make the mistake of thinking that people, or a specific person is the obstacle standing in the way of us walking in victory. But let me challenge Your thinking a bit. Initially, when you encounter a challenge, it may be initiated by a particular person. However, when you look a little deeper, you will see that the “who” becomes a “what.” The Apostle Paul elaborated on this point in Romans 8.Romans 8:35, 37-38 (NIV)Who can separate us from Christ’s love? Can trouble or hard times or harm or hunger? Can nakedness or danger or war?

No! In all these things we will do even more than win! We owe it all to Christ, who has loved us.I am absolutely sure that not even death or life can separate us from God’s love. Not even angels or demons, the present or the future, or any powers can do that. Not even the highest places or the lowest, or anything else in all creation can do that. Nothing at all can ever separate us from God’s love because of what Christ Jesus our Lord has done.”Now, that brings light to the mystery of what is actually standing in your way. Don't waste valuable time fighting against people. Focus your spiritual energy on resisting the spirit behind the obstacle. One important thing to remember is that every test can become a testimony if you allow God to navigate your path. Let me share a revelation that I received, while enduring one of the most trying circumstances I've ever faced. I was going about my business and serving God passionately. I am a very passionate person and I consider my relationship with God to be the most important aspect of my life. I realize that it is only through a close relationship with God that I can effectively help others. I began to encounter abnormal obstacles... 


While in prayer one day, I heard the gentle voice of the Holy Spirit say to me Esther, my love for you is greater than the devils hatred for you. His hatred of you is not equal to my love for you. He does not have the capacity to hate you at the same capacity that I have to love you! No weapon that is formed against you will prosper, and every tongue that has risen against you, I have promised that you will condemn. You don't belong to them, YOU belong to me. I am obligated to fulfill my plan for your life. You must trust me to bring you through this trial.”Those words rang so deep within my soul, that my perspective of the situation changed. I realized that what I was experiencing was not a result of displeasing God; but, a direct result of the anointing that was being released through me to help the very people who had turned against me. Understanding that truth, has given me the strength to move forward and experience greater grace, greater anointing and greater victory! Our God is faithful even in the midst of challenges. Remember, God is motivated by love to bring you into the blessings he has prepared for you. Nothing can separate You from His love! 

If you are experiencing obstacles or faced with challenges that appear as giants in your life, please allow me to encourage you to keep trusting in the love of God. You may experience difficulties; however, God has promised to never leave you or forsake you. Trust his word and rely on his love.

January Jewels Part 3

(copyright 2013 EstherHunterMinistries)

Inspiration
To be inspired, is to be motivated to achieve.... a vision, a dream, a goal or an idea. God has anointed me to inspire you to achieve your destiny. (see Isaiah 61:1-4 KJV)
I am confident that You are not reading this by chance. God has assigned me to speak into the lives of specific people for such a time as this! Here comes the inspiration for You today...

Write your vision down so that you can clearly see what you are reaching for. Once you bring the vision from within you, to the physical realm, it somehow triggers within you a response. You may initially feel a sense of fear or uncertainty. That is merely your soul, or intellect, doubting the vision that has been planted in your spirit. You have to retrain your soul to think on another level. A spiritual level. (Habakkuk 2:2 KJV)

Meditate on the vision daily and begin to take steps in the direction of what you see. Those practical steps often lead to supernatural results. Each step you take towards accomplishing your vision will bring you closer to the full manifestation of your dream. Remember, You are not just a dreamer; Your dreams, inspired by God, are meant to become Your reality.

Don't play the comparison game. So many people are being swept into the delusion that they must constantly compete against someone else. This is a deception, devised to keep you looking at what others are doing, instead of focusing on what you should be accomplishing. It is okay to be aware of what is happening in your area of assignment; however, You are one of a kind. God has given you a unique life assignment and only You can fulfill it. It is toxic to your vision, very unhealthy to your self esteem and extremely unwise to compare yourself with others. (see 2 Corinthians 10:12)

Rejoice and give thanks for the things that you accomplish. An attitude of thankfulness will cause you to have an open mind/heart to receive greater insight. Also, it causes you to release worry and leave the results up to God. When you are joyful, you release healing within your own soul; and ultimately, your body as well. Stress and worry serve as negative fuel to rob you of energy. The energy that you spend on worry should be spent on releasing your potential and achieving your God given goals. “ A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a broken spirit saps a persons strength.”(Proverbs 17:22 NLT))

January Jewels Part 2

(copyright 2013 EstherHunterMinistries)



Opportunities
Another word for opportunities is “possibilities.”This month, begin to think of opportunities as possibilities that God has placed within you. Remember the scripture that says “All things are possible with God ? ” Let's look at it:
Matthew 19:26 (AMP)
But Jesus looked at them and said, with men this is impossible, but all things are possible with God.”

Here we see that Jesus made a clear distinction between man's limited ability and Gods power. He made it clear that some situations are literally impossible for man to accomplish on his own; however, he never limited us to only being able to achieve with our human ability. When we add God to the equation, suddenly what was impossible becomes possible “with God.” So, for all of you who feel that your situation is impossible, it is highly likely that you are only viewing it within the parameters of your own human ability. It's time to take the limits off of God and yourself.

Examine closely, what you believe about opportunities. Do you see opportunities as something that another person must bring or open up for you? If so, you are not so different from most people. However, when you understand the true meaning of opportunity, you approach it differently. Opportunities are actually possibilities that are within your reach/grasp. Something that is actually attainable for you, when you initiate an action and receive Gods grace(ability). It's time to stop merely seeking for other people to make things happen for you, or for others to favor you with an “opportunity.” Certainly, God can cause others to look upon you favorably; however, in doing so, he never relinquishes his authority to others. Receive the favor that comes your way; but, don't limit yourself to how others respond to you. Instead, wholeheartedly commit yourself to fulfilling the vision in your heart. Allow yourself to embrace the truth that it is possible for you to achieve your dream. With Gods help, you can begin to see the dream become a reality. In fact, if you have a dream inside of you, it serves as evidence that God is showing you a path of possibility for your life, that will cause you to fulfill your purpose/destiny.



God would not place your destiny in someone else's hands... He has equipped you to fulfill it; however, you must overcome negative thoughts that say that you can't do it, or that you are not gifted enough to achieve it, or even those negative words that others have spoken to you or about you, to try to rob you of your vision. There is a method to overcoming the madness of self doubt and defeat. Through meditation on the word of God, you can transform the way that you think about yourself. Be encouraged and know that your opportunities are actually possibilities waiting to become your reality.
