- 0:00Speaker 1: Answer early whatr he praise party?
- 0:02Speaker 2: I am Sherry Mackie and his time right now for
- 0:06Speaker 2: today's word. Don't get stuck in what was? Don't get
- 0:12Speaker 2: stuck and what was? Saka Corinthians three eighteen says, But
- 0:18Speaker 2: we all with unveiled face beholding as in a mirror,
- 0:23Speaker 2: the glory of the Lord and being transformed into the
- 0:25Speaker 2: same image.
- 0:26Speaker 1: From glory to glory.
- 0:28Speaker 2: Just as by the spirit of the Lord, God never
- 0:33Speaker 2: intends for us to stay the same, his word promises
- 0:37Speaker 2: that we are being transformed into His image, from glory
- 0:41Speaker 2: to glory. That means life is a journey of growth,
- 0:45Speaker 2: changes and new seasons.
- 0:46Speaker 1: But here's the challenge.
- 0:48Speaker 2: One level of glory often comes to an end in
- 0:51Speaker 2: a way we didn't see it coming. Yeah, maybe a
- 0:55Speaker 2: friendship changed and opportunity closed. Your door that once was
- 1:00Speaker 2: open suddenly shuts. Sometimes it feels unfair, sometimes it feels painful.
- 1:05Speaker 2: But what looks like an ending is often God preparing
- 1:09Speaker 2: us for the next chapter.
- 1:11Speaker 1: Too often we get stuck.
- 1:12Speaker 2: Looking back, asking why did they treat me this way?
- 1:16Speaker 2: Why didn't I get that promotion? Why did the business
- 1:19Speaker 2: or relationship end? But when you're constantly looking backward, you
- 1:24Speaker 2: can't move forward in what God.
- 1:26Speaker 1: Has for you.
- 1:28Speaker 2: Friend, every ending that God allows is a setup for
- 1:33Speaker 2: a greater beginning.
- 1:34Speaker 1: He wouldn't allow something.
- 1:36Speaker 2: To stop unless He had something better prepared for you.
- 1:39Speaker 2: So instead of fighting the ending, trust God with the
- 1:43Speaker 2: new beginning.
- 1:44Speaker 1: Instead of being bitter about what didn't.
- 1:46Speaker 2: Last, start thanking God in advance for what's ahead. The
- 1:50Speaker 2: spirit of the Lord is always moving you forward. What
- 1:54Speaker 2: feels like lost today may actually be the very thing
- 2:00Speaker 2: that positions you for the next level of glory. Don't
- 2:04Speaker 2: get stuck in disappointment, don't camp out in frustration, Keep
- 2:08Speaker 2: moving forward, keep honoring God, keep believing that your best
- 2:12Speaker 2: days are not behind you, They're still in front of you.
- 2:16Speaker 2: What may look like a setback is really a setup
- 2:19Speaker 2: for God's greatest glory.
- 2:22Speaker 1: In your life. So don't get stuck and what was?
- 2:27Speaker 2: Oh Father, God in the name of Jesus, thank you
- 2:30Speaker 2: for the promise that we are being transformed from glory
- 2:33Speaker 2: to glory. Help us to release what was and trust
- 2:36Speaker 2: you for what's next. God, we choose to keep moving forward,
- 2:40Speaker 2: knowing that every ending you allow.
- 2:42Speaker 1: Us making room for a greater beginning.
- 2:44Speaker 2: God, we declare that our future is filled with hope,
- 2:47Speaker 2: with purpose, and your best in Jesus' name.
- 2:50Speaker 1: Now that's your word for today.
- 2:52Speaker 2: I want you to take it apply to your everyday
- 2:55Speaker 2: life and you continue to.
