Today's Word 12-12-25 Stir Up What's in You · The Early Morning Praise Party w/ Sherry Mackey

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: It's your early morning praise party. I am Sherry Mackie
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: and his time right now for today's word. Stir up
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: what's in you? Romans twelve and six and the New
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: Live in translation says, in his grace, God has given
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: us different gifts for doing certain things. Well. So if
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: God has given you the ability to prophesy, speak out
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: with as much faith as God has given you. You
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: know every one of us has been given something by
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: God in ability, a talent, a passion, a gift. It
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: may not look like somebody else's, and it may not
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: feel big or important, But Scripture reminds us that God
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: gives gifts by his grace, and he gives them for
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: a purpose. You don't need a platform, you don't need
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: a title, you don't need a spotlight for God to
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: use what's inside of you. He specializes in taking what
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: looks small and using it in powerful ways. I want
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: you to think about David. When we think of Day,
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: we often think of the king, we think of the psalmist,
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: or we think of the giant slayer. But when God
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: first began to move in his life, David wasn't on
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: the battlefield. He was out in the shepherd field. He
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: was faithfully practicing with a sling. Nobody saw him, nobody
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: applauded him. But David kept developing the gift he had.
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: See what seemed ordinary, a simple skill with the stone
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: became the very thing God used to open the door
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: to his destiny. David didn't know his gift would one
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: day bring him before kings. He didn't know that the
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: practice in the field would position him for a victory
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: that would change a nation. He was simply faithful. See
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: that's a lesson for us. You may be tempted to
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: look at what you have and think this doesn't matter,
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: This isn't special, this will never take me anywhere. But
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: God is saying otherwise. What you have may see small
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: in your hands all, but it's significant in God's hands.
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: He has placed something unique inside of you, something only
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: you can do, something only you can bring, something designed
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: to bless others in advance his kingdom. When you stir
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: up the gift inside of you, when you take time
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: to grow and develop it, God will breathe on it.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: He will open doors you didn't expect. He will take
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: you further than your resume, your connections on your background
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: could ever take you don't get caught up in comparing
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: your gift to somebody else's. Don't bury what God put
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: on the inside of you because you don't think it's enough.
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: I want you to stir it up. Take a step,
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: use what God has already given you, Use what you
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: have right where you are. When you honor God with
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: your gift, he will honor you with opportunities. Poe, Father,
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: thank you for entrusting us with gifts, with talents, with abilities,

  Speaker 1: unique things that you placed in on purpose. Thank you
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: that greatness is inside of us because you put it there.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: Help us to stir up what you've given us, to
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: develop it and use it for your glory. God. We
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: declare that we're coming up higher. We believe you're gonna
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: breathe on whatever we offer to you, according to your
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: will in Jesus' name. Oooh, that's your word for today.
