51-0714 Expectation

Описание: "You usually get what you expect." In this high-powered service from the Toledo campaign, the message explores the spiritual law of expectation and recounts a moment where the Pillar of Fire literally "spread over the entire building".

Sermon Highlights:

The Overwhelming Presence of God: A reflection on the previous night’s service, where a visible Light (the Pillar of Fire) appeared and spread across the audience. The speaker describes going "completely numb" and losing consciousness of his surroundings as the Holy Spirit took total control of the building.

The Law of Anticipation: A teaching on how our expectations determine our results. The message contrasts the person who comes to find fault with the person who comes expecting a miracle, emphasizing that God meets us at the level of our faith.

The "Sixth Sense" of Faith: An exposition on the five natural senses versus the one spiritual sense. The sermon teaches that faith is a "substance" that must lead the other senses; if your faith says you are healed, your eyes and feelings must eventually align with that spiritual reality.

Vindication of the Word: An explanation that the supernatural signs—discernment and the Pillar of Fire—are not the goal themselves, but are sent by God to "vindicate" (prove) that the Gospel is true and that Jesus is present to perform His Word.

Compassion for the Afflicted: The service features intense moments of prayer for those in desperate conditions, including:

A boy with a "water-head" (hydrocephalus): A direct command for the parents to believe as hands are laid on the child.

Anemic and stomach-troubled patients: Specific calls for individuals to stand and accept their healing immediately.

The Jericho Victory: The meeting concludes with a charge for the ministers to move through the audience and for the people to "raise your hands" and accept a mass deliverance, mirroring the falling of the walls of Jericho.

Key Quote: "I looked down, and coming over the building, and that Light just spread the whole entire building... I've never seen any more of a quick falling of the Spirit of God."

Scripture Reference: Hebrews 11:1; Matthew 9:29; Mark 11:24.
