Today's Word 01-21-26 A Work Worth Finishing · The Early Morning Praise Party w/ Sherry Mackey

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: I am Sherry Mackie. It is time right now for
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: today's word. A work worth finishing, A work worth finishing.
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: Namiyah six and three says, I'm doing a great work
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: and I cannot come down. Why should the work stop
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: while I leave it and come down to you? God
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: placed a burden in Namiyah's heart to rebuild the Wall
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: of Jerusalem, walls that had been torn down, leaving the
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: people vulnerable and exposed. It was a God given assignment,
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: and the moment Neamyah committed to the work, opposition showed up.
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: Sand Ballad and Tobiah didn't come with encouragement. They came
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: with distraction, with deception, and with threats. Five different times
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: they tried to pull Neamyah away from the wall, hoping
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: to stop the progress. But Nia Mayah recognized the tactics
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: and made a powerful declaration, I'm doing a great work
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: and I cannot come down. Well, the same is true
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: for you today. When God gives you a dream, a calling,
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: or an assignment, resistance often follows. The enemy doesn't waste
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: time attacking empty lives. He targets those who are building
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: something meaningful. Distractions can look harmless in unnecessary conversation, a
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: delay that breaths doubt, a critical voice that questions your ability.
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: But their purpose is always the same, y'all, to get
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: you to step away from what God has called you
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: to finish. If you're experiencing resistance, it's not a sign
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: you're off track. It's actually confirmation that you're right where
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: God wants you to be. You wouldn't have opposition if
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: there wasn't something significant in it for you. See the
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: dream you're carrying, it matters. The healing you're believing for,
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: it matters, the calling on your life. It matters, And
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: that's why you've got to decide, like Nehemiah, that you're
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: in it for the long haul. So you stay focused.
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: Don't let discouragement talk you out of what God and
• 2:09
  Speaker 1: faith talked you into. Don't let delays convince you that
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: God has forgotten you. Don't let critical voices distract you
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: from the work in front of you. God is your defender.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: While you keep building, he'll handle the opposition. While you
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: stay faithful, he'll bring the breakthrough. You're doing a great work.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: Keep your hands on the wall, your eyes on God,
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: and your heart anchored in his promises. What He started
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: in you. Oh he will finish. Father, Thank you, Thank
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: you for the great work you've entrusted to us. Give
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: us deserment to recognize distractions and the strength God to
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: stay focused on the assignment. Help us to trust you
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: with the opposition and remain faithful to what you called
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: us to. We believe complete the work You've begun in
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: us in Jesus' name. Hey, now that's your word for today.
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: Take it applied to your everyday life, and you contine
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: to be encouraged and inspired. It is yourly boding praise party.
