INTRODUCTION
The enemy always has expectations—expectations of your downfall, failure, and destruction. However, as a child of God, you must be confident that their evil desires will not come to pass. The same way Haman expected to see Mordecai destroyed, yet ended up being hanged on the same gallows he prepared, so also will every evil expectation concerning you be disappointed.

1. THE ENEMY EXPECTS YOU TO FAIL, BUT GOD WILL LIFT YOU
No matter the wicked expectations against you, God’s plan will prevail.

a) God Disappoints the Devices of the Crafty
Every plan of the wicked shall be frustrated (Job 5:12).

b) The Wicked Shall Fall into Their Own Trap
Whatever pit they dig for you, they will fall into it themselves (Psalm 9:15-16).

c) No Weapon Formed Against You Shall Prosper
Every evil scheme shall be nullified (Isaiah 54:17).

d) God Will Prepare a Table for You in Their Presence
Your enemies will witness your lifting (Psalm 23:5).

e) Biblical Example:
Haman expected Mordecai to be executed, but he was hanged on his own gallows instead (Esther 7:10).

2. GOD WILL TURN THEIR EVIL EXPECTATIONS INTO YOUR GLORIFICATION
What the enemy planned for evil will be turned around for your good.

a) God Uses the Enemy’s Plans to Promote His Children
What they intended for harm, God will use for your advancement (Genesis 50:20).

b) The Righteous Shall Flourish Despite Opposition
No matter their efforts, you will rise (Psalm 92:12).

c) The Wicked Shall Be Put to Shame
Those who wait for your downfall will be disappointed (Psalm 112:10).

d) God Will Turn Mourning into Dancing
He will turn your sorrow into rejoicing (Psalm 30:11).

e) Biblical Example:
Joseph’s brothers expected him to perish, but God made him ruler in Egypt (Genesis 41:40-41).

3. THE LORD WILL SILENCE EVERY EVIL VOICE AGAINST YOU
Every negative word spoken against you shall be nullified.

a) The Lord Will Condemn Every Evil Tongue
No accusation against you shall stand (Isaiah 54:17).

b) The Enemy’s Words Will Be Proved False
Their declarations against you will be reversed (Numbers 23:23).

c) You Will Be Vindicated Before Your Adversaries
Every false claim will be exposed (Psalm 37:6).

d) The Lord Will Confuse Their Evil Counsels
Their plans will contradict themselves (Isaiah 8:10).

e) Biblical Example:
The enemies of Daniel expected him to be devoured by lions, but he was preserved, and his accusers were destroyed instead (Daniel 6:24).

4. THE EXPECTATIONS OF THE RIGHTEOUS SHALL BE ESTABLISHED
While the enemy’s expectations will fail, your expectations will be fulfilled.

a) The Righteous Shall Not Be Ashamed
Your faith in God will not be disappointed (Romans 10:11).

b) God Will Grant the Desires of Your Heart
Every godly expectation shall come to pass (Psalm 37:4).

c) The Righteous Shall Reap in Due Time
Your labour in the Lord will not be in vain (Galatians 6:9).

d) God’s Plans for You Shall Stand
His purpose for you shall be fulfilled (Jeremiah 29:11).

e) Biblical Example:
Hannah expected a child despite her mockers, and God gave her Samuel (1 Samuel 1:20).

5. YOUR ENEMIES WILL WITNESS YOUR VICTORY AND BE ASTONISHED
They will see your success and be confounded.

a) They Will Be Forced to Acknowledge God's Hand on Your Life
Just as Pharaoh acknowledged God’s power through Moses (Exodus 12:31).

b) They Will See You Rise Against All Odds
Your testimony will shock your enemies (Psalm 126:1-3).

c) Your Opponents Will Be Speechless at Your Breakthrough
They will be confused about how you overcame (Isaiah 41:11).

d) The Wicked Shall Be Cut Off While the Righteous Prevail
Those who plotted against you will be removed (Psalm 37:9-10).

e) Biblical Example:
The people who expected Paul to die from a snake bite later called him a god when nothing happened to him (Acts 28:3-6).

CONCLUSION
The expectations of the wicked against you shall not come to pass. Instead, God will turn their evil plans into your testimony. Just as Haman’s plans against Mordecai failed and Joseph’s brothers’ evil schemes led to his promotion, so also will every expectation of your enemies be disappointed. Stay faithful to God, and watch Him turn every attack into your victory!
