WHAT DO YOU WANT JESUS TO DO FOR YOU?

So Jesus answered and said to him, "What do you want Me to do for you?" The blind man said to Him, "Rabboni, that I may receive my sight." Then Jesus said to him, "Go your way; your faith has made you well." And immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus on the road.

(Mark 10:51-52)

Many people pray for a miracle without the slightest bit of expectancy to receive it from the Lord Jesus Christ.  All who came to Jesus came with a expectant heart to receive their miracle!  They received their miracle and they left healed.  The following story in the Gospel of Matthew reveals this truth:

And when He had come into the house, the blind men came to Him. And Jesus said to them, "Do you believe that I am able to do this?" They said to Him, "Yes, Lord." Then He touched their eyes, saying, "According to your faith let it be to you."

(Matthew 9:28-29)

When the Lord Jesus Christ appeared to me He said a person cannot receive from Him unless they have an expectancy in their heart that they will receive their miracle.  In Mark 11:24 Jesus says, "Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them."  The Lord Jesus Christ will never do anything against your will.  If He could, the whole world would be saved.  When you believe or have a expectant heart you have opened your heart and allowed Him to move freely through your life!  In the Gospel of Mark, we read,

Now He could do no mighty work there, except that He laid His hands on a few sick people and healed them. And He marveled because of their unbelief. Then He went about the villages in a circuit, teaching.

Mark 6:5-6

I asked The Lord Jesus Christ for scriptures that would explain the need to have Expectancy in your Heart. He gave them to me and I will share a few.

"And whatever things you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive."

(Matthew 21:22)

"Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened."

(Matthew 7:7-8)

Jesus said to him, "If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes."

(Mark 9:23)

But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea driven and tossed by the wind. For let not that man suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord.

(James 1:6-7)
