Messy Places · Brain Spa

What if the mess isn't the mistake, but the material God is
0:05
using to build you? Today's scripture is coming from
0:09
Jeremiah chapter #32 verse 17 and this is the NKJV.
0:15
It says, ah Lord God, behold, you made the heavens and the
0:22
earth by your great power and outstretched arm.
0:25
There is nothing too hard for you.
0:30
Let's go further. You ever stop to think?
0:34
The same God who positioned the stars with precision, who keeps
0:38
the earth rotating down to the millisecond, who design systems,
0:44
galaxies and gravity? That same God is not about to
0:49
get clumsy with your life. We look at the chaos around us
0:53
and assume something's wrong. But messy doesn't mean
0:59
misaligned. Just because it's not perfect
1:02
doesn't mean it's not part of the plan.
1:05
You are under construction, and construction zones don't look
1:09
like the blueprint. They look like dust, debris, and
1:13
discomfort. Maybe you are in a place right
1:17
now and that feels too dysfunctional to be part of your
1:21
destiny. But here's the truth.
1:24
But here's the truth. Nothing you're going through has
1:28
caught God off guard. Your poor decisions, the delays,
1:34
even the detours, He factored all of that into your blueprint.
1:40
You are not a surprise. You are not the exception.
1:44
You are not the one case He didn't blame for.
1:48
You're just under construction. And if it looks like a mess
1:51
right now, good. That means something is being
1:55
built. And here's today's reflection
1:58
moment. A man was building a deck in his
2:03
backyard. Piles, wood, dust flying
2:06
everywhere, 2 scattered, and no clue what the final product
2:10
would look like. It didn't feel like progress,
2:14
but he knew what he was building.
2:18
And so this guy, what if the version of you you're becoming
2:23
can only be born through this mess?
2:29
And here's today's declaration. I trust that even in the mess,
2:35
God is moved. I'm not off track.
2:39
I'm under construction, and he will finish what he started.
2:45
And today's prayer, God, thank you that you are our Creator,
2:50
architect, and builder, and that you are working through a
2:52
specific plan for our life. And we thank you that we are
2:56
under construction even in the messy places.
2:59
We're growing. We are coming up higher.
3:02
And we know that you're going to finish what you started until
3:07
because of that, we can rest and focus and begin to understand
3:12
that you're calling us to something higher and understand
3:15
what the chaos and the mess actually is.
3:18
Building materials. We thank you for building
3:20
something great out of all of our lives so that we can stand
3:23
tall and reflect your glory here in the earth.
3:25
Continue to allow us to move and live and dwell in your divine
3:28
favor. And all that we do blessed the
3:30
works of our hands cover our kids, our loved ones, and
3:33
everyone who's named into our heart.
3:35
We thank you, Lord, for causing us to continue to see things
3:38
from your limbs and understand that as we see, we, we can
3:42
manifest. And I thank you for the power of
3:44
your manifestation evident in our life throughout this day.
3:48
We thank you for making us whole and complete with nothing
3:50
missing, broken, or lacking. And we just want to continue to
3:53
honor you for allowing us to have this opportunity to see
3:56
things snap into place that was once out of alignment.
4:00
We honor you for these things, and we ask that you continue to
4:02
cover our loved ones and our kids and everyone who's new and
4:04
dear to our heart. We honor you for making sure
4:07
we're whole and complete with nothing missing, broken, or
4:09
lacking. And it's in the matchless name
4:11
of Jesus to Christ. How can we do?
4:12
Pray, Amen. God bless y'all, I love you and
4:17
I hope you have a fantastic day today.
4:20
Y'all take care. One last stop.
4:24
Don't let the dust fool you. Progress is still progress, even
4:30
when it's messy.
