  Speaker 1: I am Sherry Mackeit. It's time right now for today's word.
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: What are you focused on? Numbers eleven, five and six?
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: As we remember the fish we ate in Egypt at
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: no cost, also the cucumbers, melons, leeks, onions, and garlic.
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: But now we have lost our appetite. We never see
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: anything but this manner. When God brought the Israelites out
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: of slavery in Egypt, he led them on a journey
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: through the wilderness to the Promised Land. There were no stores,
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: there were no water towers. Yet God provided them with
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: manna to eat every morning and everything else they needed.
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: They saw the hand of God every single day. He
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: provided for them daily, but all they focused on was
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: what they didn't have. Even God's miraculous provision of manner
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: seemed common to them, and what they had eaten as
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: abused slaves seemed far better. God was in their presence,
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: but they were ungrateful and ended up not going into
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: the Promised Land. Please don't ever take the blessings of
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: God for granted. The key to the journey we're on
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: is to focus on God. If you focus on negativity,
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: if you focus on what's lacking, how long it's taking
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: what you don't like, you won't find joy in the journey,
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: and doubt will come. You'll start complaining, and you're gonna
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: miss God's best for your life. You'll miss that all
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: along the way. God is sustaining you. God is protecting you.
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: God is providing for you. God is ordering your steps.
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: You've got to recognize his goodness in your life. You
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: got to take the time every single day to thank
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: him for what he's doing today. Father, God, thank you
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: for the journey that you're leading us on. Thank you
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: for all that you're doing right now, How you're sustaining us,
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: how you're providing for us, how you're making crooked paths straight. God,
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: we believe that you're ordering our steps and will bring
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: us to where you want us to be. In Jesus' name. Hey,
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: now that's your word for today. Take it applied to
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: your everyday life and you continue to be encouraged and inspired.
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: It's early body praise party. I am Sherry Maggie
