  Speaker 1: It's your early morning praise party. I am Sherry Mackie
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: at its time, right now for today's word. God knows
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: where to find you. God knows where to find you. First.
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: Samuel sixteen thirteen says, So as David stood there among
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: his brothers, Samuel took the flask of olive oil he
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: had brought an anointed David with the oil, and the
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: spirit of the Lord came powerfully upon David. From that
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: day on. Have you ever felt overlook Maybe you've wondered
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: if your current season is as far as you'll ever go.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: You work hard, you stay faithful, you do the right thing,
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: but it seems like everyone else is getting noticed while
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: you're simply going through another ordinary day. If that's where
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: you are, I want you to take heart. God has
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: a way of finding people in the world that the
• 0:55
  Speaker 1: world overlooks. David wasn't standing in a palace when God
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: chose him. He was a networking with the influential people
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: of his day, or trying to make a name for himself.
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: He was out in the field doing one of the
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: lowest jobs in the family. He was taking care of
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: the sheep while everyone else saw a shepherd bore. God
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: saw a king. On what seemed like an ordinary date,
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: David heard his father call him home. He had no
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: idea that the prophet Samuel had arrived. He wasn't expecting
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: an opportunity. He hadn't submitted an application or campaign for
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: the position yet before his own family. Samuel poured oil
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: over David's head and declared that he would become the
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: next king of Israel. What a reminder that your destiny
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: isn't determined by your current location. It isn't determined by
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: what you're going through right now, or your current circumstance,
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: is determined by God's divine purpose. You may think you're
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: limited by your education, by your finances, by your background,
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: by your aid, or the connections you don't have, But
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: God isn't limited by any of those things. He knows
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: exactly where you are, and he knows exactly how to
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: get you to where He's called you to be. While
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: you're faithfully tending today to the sheep, so to speak,
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: God is arranging tomorrow's opportunities. He's preparing conversations you haven't
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: had yet. He's opening doors you didn't even know existed.
• 2:24
  Speaker 1: He's connecting you with people you've never even met who
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: can help you move into your place of purpose. Your
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: responsibility isn't to force the door open. Your responsibility is
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: to remain faithful where you are. Excellence in the ordinary
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: prepares you for the extraordinary. Come, Oh Jesus, don't become
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: discouraged because your breakthrough hasn't happened yet. Every act of obedience,
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: every quiet prayer, every unseen sacrifice matters to God. He
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: knows your address, he knows your name, and he knows
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: when the appointed time arrives. No person eyes circumstance can
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: stop what God has ordained for you. One day you'll
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: look around and amazement and say, only God could have
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: brought me here having a father, Thank you, Thank you
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: that you see us even when we feel overlook Thank
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: you that our future is not limited by our circumstances,
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: but it's secured by your purpose for our lives. Help
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: us to remain faithful God in the small things. Knowing
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: that you're preparing us for greater things ahead, strengthen us
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: to trust your time and instead of comparing our journey
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: to someone else's. Oh God, we believe that you are
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: arranging divine appointments, opening doors no one can shut and
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: bring the right people into our lives at the right time,
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: or we declare that we will walk confidently into every
• 3:46
