Expectation is a powerful thing. It shapes how we see the world, how we prepare for what’s ahead, and how we trust in what’s unseen. The Bible reminds us that expectation isn’t just about hoping for something good—it’s about being ready for what’s coming.

In Matthew 24:44, Jesus says:

“So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you do not expect him.”

This verse calls us to live in a state of holy expectation—not fear, but readiness. Expectation in the Kingdom isn’t passive; it’s active. It means living alert, prayerful, and faithful, trusting that even when we don’t know when, we can know who is coming.

Join us today along with our unexpected special guest, and as you listen today, reflect on this question: What does it mean for you to expect? To expect God’s promises,

Because in the waiting, in the wondering, and in the watching—our faith is refined.
