Expectation

MY FAITH IS RENEWED! MY EXPECTATION IS FROM GOD!

What are you expecting today—this week—this year? We should examine our expectations carefully, for what we expect comes to us.

It is important to anticipate healing as we pray to be healed. It is necessary to get ready to receive as we pray for prosperity. Many of our dreams go away because we do not really expect them to come true.

What do you expect from yourself? Do you expect the best that you are capable of being? We do ourselves an injustice if we excuse our weaknesses or ignore that which should be corrected. Let us begin to expect the best in ourselves and the best in each day.

We are surrounded by God’s good, but we need to accept this truth. God’s good is constant and everlasting. All else in time passes away. Let us not put our belief on the temporary and the changing. Expect happiness, expect health and prosperity, expect good!

My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from him. (Psalm 62:5)

Your Divine Plan

By Rev. Joyce Kramer

Transcript of a radio broadcast by Rev. Joyce Kramer, January 21, 2014.

What do you want out of life? Do you know? Few people have any real concrete picture of just what they want out of life. Consequently it seems that they live at the mercy of someone or something other than themselves. Thus we have the belief that we are the victim of things over which we have little or no control.

Each and every person is created with the ability and the power to determine his own future. Man is not at the whim of fate, luck, or chance. Neither is he created to be at the mercy of another person [ . . .]

The Joyce Kramer Ministries logo depicts a dogwood tree planted across the entrance to the church that Rev. Kramer founded in Virginia Beach. Transplanted from her brother’s property in Charlottesville, for eighteen months the tree seemed nothing more than a lifeless stick in the ground. Finally, on a Wednesday afternoon, the decision was made to dig it up, but the lawn maintenance man did not have a shovel with him. The next week, he said, he would come back and discard the dead tree. But that Sunday when Rev. Kramer arrived at church, she noticed a single leaf had appeared on the otherwise barren stick. They left the tree in place, and it grew into one of the most beautiful on the property. This flowering dogwood represents the message of Joyce Kramer Ministries: Growth is always possible; never give up.
