TODAY’S PROPHETIC NUMBERS

August 20, 2024 – 08/20/2024
  8 – New Beginnings
20 – Expectancy and Redemption

NATURALLY SUPERNATURAL

God wants us to stop waiting.  He says to rise and stand up to what is keeping you from the future He has for you.  Declare what He has said.  Expect it to happen.

And the Lord said to Moses, “Rise early in the morning and stand before Pharaoh as he comes out to the water. Then say to him, ‘Thus says the Lord: “Let My people go, that they may serve Me.” – Exodus 8:20 NKJV

See, the hope and future God gives us is an expected end. That’s why Jeremiah 29:11 is sometimes translated as “hope” and sometimes as “expected end.”  Look at the King James Version, “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end…”

God wants you to expect and have great hope for where your life will end up. When you start thinking about that, you start thinking about the legacy you will leave behind.

We can get off track if we only follow our feelings to set our expectations. His ways aren’t always easy or comfortable; they are simply the best ways. When Pharoah let His people go, God took them to the wilderness.

We learn that God does things supernaturally in the wilderness, and it becomes a lifestyle for His people. We become naturally supernatural people who expect to see water come from rocks and manna from Heaven. We learn that God is not confined to anything in the wilderness, and we live that out for the rest of our lives.

Declaration: God’s voice will be strong and clear in my life today.  I will listen to Him.  I expect to walk in His promises for my life as I walk in freedom from sin and joy in my soul.
