July 10 – Surprises Await Me
God Has Good Things Planned That I Didn’t See Coming
Today’s Verse
“Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for His compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness.”
– Lamentations 3:22–23
You’ve been on edge, preparing yourself for the worst, just in case the next thing you hear is bad news. You’ve gotten used to delays and started expecting things to go wrong before they even happen. Now, you try not to hope too much, so it won’t hurt as much when things don’t work out.
But today, God is interrupting this cycle. He says you're not in survival mode anymore. You're not stuck in that heavy place of always waiting for the next heartbreak. That season has expired. You’re now entering into something new, something holy. You are stepping into a season of divine surprises that won’t look like anything you have experienced before.
God has already moved ahead of you. He’s been making arrangements in silence, lining up favor in rooms you didn’t even know existed, and unlocking blessings you didn’t have the strength to pray for. He is doing all that not because you earned it, but because He is good, faithful, and generous with mercy.
So let your heart come alive again. Don’t live on edge, waiting for the worst. Start leaning in, and start expecting.
Expect provision that doesn't make sense.
Expect favor that skips protocols.
Expect joy to return to places grief had taken over.
Expect restoration that sweeps in out of nowhere and catches you off guard in the best possible way.
Heaven is already working behind the scenes on your behalf. Get ready and start expecting good news.
Bold Prophetic Declarations
Speak these out loud with boldness. Don’t whisper them.
I declare that divine surprises are chasing me down! Goodness and mercy are not just following me, they’re overtaking me. Where I expected resistance, I find release; where I braced for pain, I encounter joy.
I expect good news, sudden favor, and unexpected open doors. My hope is rising, and my posture is shifting. I’m leaning into anticipation, not anxiety. What I couldn’t make happen, God is doing swiftly and supernaturally.
I decree that Heaven is orchestrating blessings beyond what I can see. Even when I don’t feel it or sense it, angels are moving on my behalf. Divine connections, hidden answers, and joyful encounters are already set in motion.
I break agreement with fear, pessimism, and small thinking.
I renounce every narrative that taught me to shrink my hope.
I refuse to expect the worst. I align my faith with the God who does exceedingly, abundantly above all I ask or imagine.
I declare: this is my season of joyful surprises and divine turnaround. Every delay is turning into divine acceleration. Every dry place is about to bloom with unexpected glory.
In Jesus’ name, Amen!
