You were never made to play small, you were made to show up
0:06
fully. Today's scripture is coming from
0:08
the Psalm chapter #45 verse 2 through 4 in the NLT and it
0:13
reads, God Himself has blessed you forever.
0:19
Put on your sword, Almighty warrior, You are so glorious, so
0:23
majestic. Go forth to perform our
0:27
inspiring deeds. Let's go deeper.
0:32
We know God is glorious, but too many of us forget that God
0:37
created us with glory on us too. And not the fake gun, not look
0:43
at me energy. I'm talking about the quiet
0:45
confidence that says I'm built for what I'm called to.
0:52
Because life will try to convince you that you are
0:55
ordinate, that your dream is too big, that you don't have enough
0:59
credentials, that your past disqualifies your future, that
1:04
your giant is too big to defeat. And the wild part is, you don't
1:10
even need somebody else to doubt you.
1:12
You do it to yourself. You'll talk down in your own
1:16
head. You will shrink in rooms you
1:19
were meant to lead in. You will play the background in
1:22
a life you were meant to headline, but Psalm 45 is
1:27
talking to the version of you that forgot.
1:30
It's saying God blessed you on purpose.
1:34
You're not average or random. You are not here just to
1:39
survive. There are awe inspiring deeds in
1:44
you not because you're perfect, but because you are positioned.
1:49
And when you stop waiting on confidence to show up and start
1:52
moving like you are already equipped, you will realize the
1:57
mighty warrior isn't some future version of you.
2:01
It's you in motion. So today, we don't downplay what
2:06
God put in us. We don't apologize for our
2:09
gifts. We don't hide our light to make
2:11
other people comfortable. We shine not for ego, for
2:16
impact. And here's today's reflection
2:19
moment. Think about this today.
2:22
Where have I been shrinking even though I know I am called?
2:29
What give have I been treating like it's small because it
2:33
scares me to take it seriously? And what would change if I
2:38
walked today like I am already blessed?
2:43
And here says declaration. Repeat this after me.
2:49
I am blessed on purpose. I don't shrink, I rise.
2:54
I am built for awe inspiring deeds.
2:58
I shine with discipline, not ego.
3:02
And here's today's prayer. God, thank you for putting
3:05
greatness in us. Thank you that we don't have to
3:09
talk ourselves down, dim our light, or live beneath what you
3:15
place on our lives. Help us recognize what's already
3:19
in US, strengthen our confidence and sharpen our focus, and give
3:24
us the courage to show up fully in every room, every assignment,
3:29
and every season. We're not afraid to shine or to
3:33
be seen, and we're not afraid to take up space on purpose.
3:36
And we thank you for making sure that we are always whole and
3:40
complete with nothing missing, broken or lacking.
3:43
And we thank you for covering our loved ones and everyone who
3:46
is near and dear to our heart. And we're stating all these
3:49
things in the matchless name of Jesus.
3:51
To Christ our King, we do pray. Amen.
3:54
God bless y'all. I love you and I hope you have a
3:57
fantastic day today. Y'all, take care.
4:01
One last thought, Your light isn't arrogance, it's obedience.
4:07
So shine like you mean it.
