Power of Surprise!




Key Scripture:  When You did AWESOME things for which we did not look!”
Isaiah 64:3
Power Point:
God loves to surprise us! 
-Moses failed miserably and then was surprised by a burning bush.
-Lazarus died and then surprised everyone by walking out of his tomb.
-Jesus died and then He surprised us with the resurrection.
-Jesus ascended and then He surprised us with the arrival of the Holy Spirit.
     Somewhere, somehow, sometime God will surprise YOU with His goodness.
In fact, you ain’t seen nothin’ yet!
     Do you remember the surprising night when God led His people out of Egypt?  He surprised them with the first miracle they had ever seen, the parting of the Red Sea.
Do you remember when the disciples had been fishing all night without even one tiny minnow to show for it?  Jesus surprised them with a catch so awesome that it broke their nets.
I love that about God.  I love knowing that whatever lack or need I see in front of my face, God has a wonderful surprise in store for me.
It’s just the way He is. 
     Do you need a way out?  Expect a surprising pathway to show up.
     Do you have a lack? Launch out into the deep.
     Have you failed?  Go find that bush!
     God has glorious surprises in store for you.  He’s not limited by your imagination or your hopelessness. He’s got a pocketful of miracles ready to sprinkle across your path.
Men are clueless about who God really is; A glorious God, who acts on behalf of the one who waits for Him.
He comes toward and meets with the one who is greatly happy in Him."  Is. 64:4,5  (Suzanne version).

He's hiding right around that next corner waiting to jump out and say, "Surprise!"

Powerful Thought:
I wonder what God has in store for us today. Whatever will He do next?!
