- 0:00Speaker 1: At your early what he praise party, I am Sherry
- 0:03Speaker 1: Mackie at its time right now for today's word. The
- 0:07Speaker 1: rock in you is being developed. Matthew sixteen eighteen says,
- 0:14Speaker 1: now I say to you that you are Peter, which
- 0:17Speaker 1: means rock, and upon this rock I will build by church,
- 0:21Speaker 1: and all the powers of Hell will not conquer it.
- 0:25Speaker 1: You know, when Jesus spoke today's scripture to Simon, he
- 0:29Speaker 1: was anything but a rock y'all. He was impulsive, he
- 0:32Speaker 1: was unreliable, he was inconsistent, he was hot tempered. Jesus
- 0:37Speaker 1: was telling him who the true Simon was, Simon Peter.
- 0:41Speaker 1: He was calling out the true Simon, the faithful Simon,
- 0:45Speaker 1: the Simon the Rock. It didn't happen overnight, but God
- 0:50Speaker 1: kept working on Peter's weaknesses, chilling away the hot temperedness,
- 0:55Speaker 1: transforming his inconsistency. When the church was starting in the
- 1:01Speaker 1: Book of Acts, they needed someone to give the inaugural
- 1:04Speaker 1: address on the day of Pentecost. Who was the obvious
- 1:08Speaker 1: leader to step forward? That same Peter. But now he
- 1:13Speaker 1: wasn't the impulse of Peter. He wasn't the inconsistent Peter.
- 1:16Speaker 1: He wasn't the deny Jesus three times. Peter all this
- 1:21Speaker 1: was the rock that Jesus had previously called him. It
- 1:25Speaker 1: was the true Peter, the faithful Peter, the strong Peter,
- 1:28Speaker 1: the anointed Peter, the powerful Peter. Here's what I'm saying
- 1:34Speaker 1: to you today. Don't get discouraged because of who you are.
- 1:37Speaker 1: Right now. God is still molding you. He's still shaping you.
- 1:42Speaker 1: He's still removing things that are limiting your destiny. You
- 1:47Speaker 1: haven't seen your best days. The rock in you is
- 1:50Speaker 1: still being developed. It's still going to come out and
- 1:53Speaker 1: be used lightly by God, the successful You, the Holy You,
- 1:58Speaker 1: the favored youth. Oh Father God, thank you that, by
- 2:02Speaker 1: the spirit of the Living God, you are transforming us
- 2:07Speaker 1: into the person you created us to be. Thank you
- 2:10Speaker 1: that every test of our faith is shaping us. And
- 2:13Speaker 1: to the troop us, the faithful Us, the holy Us, God,
- 2:16Speaker 1: we believe that the rock in us is still coming
- 2:20Speaker 1: out in Jesus' name. Now, that's your word for today.
- 2:25Speaker 1: I want you to take that, apply that to your
- 2:27Speaker 1: everyday life, and you continue to be encouraged and inspire.
