  Just because nobody sees it yet does not mean God isn't watching
• 0:07
  every move you make. Today's scripture is coming from
• 0:11
  Zechariah chapter 4 verse 10. And this is the NLT and it says,
• 0:15
  do not despise these small beginnings, for the Lord
• 0:21
  rejoices to see the work begin. Let's go further.
• 0:28
  You ever feel overlooked, like you're doing everything right?
• 0:33
  Showing up, serving, praying, being faithful, but it's all
• 0:40
  happening in the shadows. David was anointed as king and
• 0:46
  then sent right back to the sheep pen.
• 0:49
  He didn't walk into the palace, he walked into preparation.
• 0:55
  That sling he was practicing with in silence, that was his
• 1:00
  weapon for Goliath. That field wasn't punishment, it
• 1:05
  was training ground for the throne.
• 1:08
  So yeah, you might be holding down a job that doesn't reflect
• 1:11
  your dream yet you might be giving your all to a calling
• 1:16
  nobody's clapping for. But heaven is watching.
• 1:20
  God sees how you do what you do, especially when no one is
• 1:27
  watching. That is what qualifies you for
• 1:31
  the next level. And here's today's reflection
• 1:35
  moment. I once knew a man who hated his
• 1:40
  job. No worry, No title, just sweat
• 1:44
  and service. But what he didn't know was that
• 1:48
  what God was building in him were habits like grit,
• 1:53
  excellence, discipline that he would need for this season.
• 1:59
  If he had skipped that chapter, he wouldn't be ready for what
• 2:03
  he's walking in right now. So don't rush your preparation
• 2:08
  season. The field you're in now might
• 2:12
  just be where God is making a king out of you.
• 2:18
  And here's His declaration. Repeat this after me.
• 2:22
  I may be in the field, but I'm being formed.
• 2:27
  I'm not just anointed, I'm appointed.
• 2:30
  My small start is setting me up for a supernatural elevation.
• 2:37
  And here's today's prayer. God, we thank you for reminding
• 2:41
  us that nothing we do in faith is wasted.
• 2:45
  Thank you for the field, the silence and the process.
• 2:49
  Help us to stay faithful, focused, and excellent even when
• 2:54
  no one is watching. And we trust that you are
• 2:57
  preparing for us to walk into the promise.
• 3:01
  And we thank you that we can have this anticipation and more
• 3:05
  so the understanding that greatness grows in shadows and
• 3:10
  everything we do is not going to be wasted, but it's going to be
• 3:14
  used for our next level. I thank you for giving us that
• 3:17
  mindset and that focus and for always making sure that we're
• 3:21
  impacted by your word. And we thank you that today is
• 3:24
  the day you've made and we're going to rejoice and be glad in
• 3:27
  it. And we thank you for this
• 3:29
  motivation and this devotional to help us to stay focused and
• 3:33
  to do what we know we can do and do it to our best abilities for
• 3:37
  us. And we thank you for always
• 3:40
  making sure that we walk in your provision, your peace and your
• 3:45
  prosperity, and live and move and dwell in your divine favor.
• 3:49
  And all that we do thank you for covering our kids, our loved
• 3:52
  ones, and everyone who is near and dear to our heart, our
• 3:54
  partners, our spouses. We just thank you for your
• 3:57
  provision, your protection for them as well.
• 4:00
  We honor you for this day, and it's in the matchless name of
• 4:03
  Jesus the Christ, our King. We do pray, Amen.
• 4:06
  God bless y'all. I love you and I hope you have a
• 4:10
  fantastic day today. Y'all take care.
• 4:14
  One last thought, be great and secret.
• 4:18
  Heaven sees it, and promotion doesn't come from people.
