Expectation

For surely there is an end; and thine expectation shall not be cut off.

• Prayer
• Rising

My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.

But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.

• Waiting

My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from him.

And when Peter was come to himself, he said, Now I know of a surety, that the Lord hath sent his angel, and hath delivered me out of the hand of Herod, and from all the expectation of the people of the Jews.

For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.

For the needy shall not alway be forgotten: the expectation of the poor shall not perish for ever.

And as the people were in expectation, and all men mused in their hearts of John, whether he were the Christ, or not;

According to my earnest expectation and my hope, that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but that with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ shall be magnified in my body, whether it be by life, or by death.

• Children
• Wisdom

Let not thine heart envy sinners: but be thou in the fear of the LORD all the day long. For surely there is an end; and thine expectation shall not be cut off. Hear thou, my son, and be wise, and guide thine heart in the way.

• Call
• Corruption
• Firstborn

For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God. For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope, Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God. For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.

The hope of the righteous shall be gladness: but the expectation of the wicked shall perish.

The desire of the righteous is only good: but the expectation of the wicked is wrath.

• Character

When a wicked man dieth, his expectation shall perish: and the hope of unjust men perisheth.

• Titus
• Diligence
• Joy

And this they did, not as we hoped, but first gave their own selves to the Lord, and unto us by the will of God. Insomuch that we desired Titus, that as he had begun, so he would also finish in you the same grace also. Therefore, as ye abound in every thing, in faith, and utterance, and knowledge, and in all diligence, and in your love to us, see that ye abound in this grace also.

And they shall be afraid and ashamed of Ethiopia their expectation, and of Egypt their glory.

Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.

To whom God would make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:

For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,

• Life

Hope deferred maketh the heart sick: but when the desire cometh, it is a tree of life.

So shall the knowledge of wisdom be unto thy soul: when thou hast found it, then there shall be a reward, and thy expectation shall not be cut off.

• David
• Waiting

And now, Lord, what wait I for? my hope is in thee.
