| We need a deeper expectation. | |
| Yes. | |
| A more urgent expectation. | |
| The Bible said he's able to do exceedingly abundantly above anything we could ask or dare to imagine. | |
| And here's what he told me. | |
| He said, tell the body of Christ to think bigger. | |
| Tell us that story about the little lady that came to your meeting in a wheelchair. | |
| Oh, my God. | |
| Just all tiny. | |
| She just was almost shriveled up. | |
| They brought a little lady in the wheelchair, and bless her heart. | |
| She'd been there 37 years. | |
| She's just swiveled up to almost nothing. | |
| And so I said to the Lord, Lord, what will you do with this woman? | |
| And he said to me, what do you want me to do with this woman? | |
| And I was stunned. | |
| And I don't know where it came from. | |
| I don't know how to say it. | |
| But he said, what do you want me to do? | |
| I said, I want her to jump up out of that chair and I want her to throw her leg up as high as a rocket dancer. | |
| One of these gals. | |
| And where would that come from? | |
| But watch this, this little lady gets up and puts her leg up as high as my shoulder. | |
| Set back down. | |
| I said, Lord, what in the world was that? | |
| He said, don't you remember blind Bartimaeus? | |
| Remember, blind Bartimaeus stood in front of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. | |
| And he said, what is it you want me to do for you? | |
| See, I think we need to declare it. | |
| We have not because we ask not. | |
| We need to start asking God what we want him to do for us. | |
| And so, listen, if we'll ask, we'll receive. | |
| If we'll seek, we'll find. | |
| If we knock, it'll be open for us. | |
| Speaking is important. | |
| It is. | |
| Salvation with the mouth. | |
| Confession is made unto salvation. | |
| I am telling you, there is power in our words. | |
| There's power for death or life in our words. | |
| I like this. | |
| It says, sweet words can be sweet to the mind and healing to the body. | |
| You can say something from God that can bring healing to a person's body. | |
| It says, a kind word is like apples of gold in settings of silver. | |
| Now, don't you ever believe that lie? | |
| There's a little nursery rhyme years ago. | |
| Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words can never hurt me. | |
| That's a lie out of hell. | |
| Words can create. | |
| Words can wound you. | |
| Words can heal you. | |
| So words have power. | |
