  Speaker 1: Charyboddy prays PARTI, I am Sherry Mackie. It is time
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: right now for today's word. God is already ahead of you.
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: Zachariah nine to nine says, rejoice greatly, daughter Zion, shout,
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: daughter Jerusalem. See your king comes to you, righteous and victorious,
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: lowly and riding on a donkey, a colt, the foal
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: of a donkey. You know, one of the greatest sources
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: of stress in life is worrying about the future. We
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: wonder how things will work out. Will the door ever open,
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: will the finances come together?
• 0:34
  Speaker 2: Will the healing happen?
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: Will the dream God placed in our heart ever become
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: our reality? The challenge is that we tend to view
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: life through the lens of our current circumstances. We see
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: today's obstacles, today's delays, today's disappointments. God, however, sees the
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: entire picture. He sees the beginning, the middle, and the end,
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: all at once.
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: Hundreds of years before.
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: Jesus entered Jerusale on what we now call Paul was Sunday.
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: The prophet Zachariah described the event and remarkable detail long
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: before the crowd shouted hosea, long before Paul branch has
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: covered the road. Long before the disciples understood God's plan,
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: the details had already been established in heaven.
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: I want you to think about that.
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: Generations came and went, kingdom's roles and felt, people lived
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: and died. Yet through all those years, God was carefully
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: orchestrating events to fulfill his purpose at exactly the right time.
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: Nothing caught him by surprise.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: In the same way, God is already ahead of you
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: and me before you faced your current challenges. God had
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: already prepared grace for it before you encountered that setback.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: He had already made provision before you reached this season
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: of uncertainty. He had already arranged opportunities, relationships, resources, and
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: breakthroughs that will help move.
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: You into your destiny.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: What feels unexpected to you is not unexpected to God.
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: See.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: Sometimes we become discouraged because we don't see immediate progress.
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: We assume that because nothing is happening visibly, nothing is
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: happening at all.
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: But God often works.
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: Behind the scenes long before we see results in front
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: of us. The promotion you're believing for, the healing you're
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: praying about, the relationship you're hoping for, the ministry you're
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: building the dream you're pursuing. God is already at work.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: He's aligning circumstances. He's open and unseen doors, positioning people
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: and opportunities that you cannot see. Your responsibility is not
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: to figure it out. Your responsibility is to trust in God.
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: When fear tells you that your future is uncertain, remember
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: that God has already gone before you. When doubt says
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: the obstacle is too big, remember that God is preparing
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: the answer long before the problem appeared. The God who
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: orchestrated the fulfillment of his promises to Jesus, is faithfully
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: orchestrating his promises to you. Take heart today, the story
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: of your life is not being written as it unfolds.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: God has already seen every chapter. And because He is
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: the one writing the story, your future is secure in
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: his hands. Oh Father God, Thank you. Thank you that
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: you see what we cannot see and know what we
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: don't know. Thank you that you are already ahead of us,
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: preparing the way and orchestrating events for our good God.
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: We are tempted sometimes to worry about the future, but
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: help us to remember that You've already gone before us,
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: and we trust that you're aligning every detail according to
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: your perfect plan for our lives. God, we believe that
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: what you promised is going to come to pass in
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: our future is secure in Jesus' name.
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: That's your word for today.
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: Take it applied to your everyday life, and you continue
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: to be encouraged to add inspired. It's your early morning
• 4:00
  Speaker 1: praise party. I am Sherry macke
