Today's Word 10-15-26 The Blessing is Already on You · The Early Morning Praise Party w/ Sherry Mackey

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: It's your early morning praise party. I am Sherri Mackey
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: and it's time right now for today's word. The blessing
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: is already on you. Deuteronomy 28, two through four says,
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: all these blessings will come on you and accompany you.
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: If you obey the Lord, your God, you will be
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: blessed in the city and blessed in the country. The
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: fruit of your womb will be blessed. The crops of
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: your land and the young of your livestock. Let me
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: remind you of something today. You're not just hoping for
• 0:33
  Speaker 1: a blessing. Through your relationship with God, you have a
• 0:37
  Speaker 1: reason to walk in faith, knowing that his favor can
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: meet you right where you are. When you surrendered your
• 0:43
  Speaker 1: life to Christ, you entered a relationship with the one
• 0:46
  Speaker 1: who can give you strength beyond your own, wisdom beyond
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: your experience, and peace beyond your circumstances. See, there's a
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: divine enablement that comes from trusting God. It doesn't mean
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: life will always be easy, but it means you don't
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: have to face life's challenges relying on your own strength. See,
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: your talent may open a door, your education may qualify
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: you for an opportunity, and your determination may keep you moving,
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: but God can do what your natural ability cannot. He
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: can give you wisdom when you don't know what to do,
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: courage when fear tries to hold you back, and strength
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: to rise again after disappointment. And here's the beautiful thing
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: about the blessing. It's not limited by your location or
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: defined by your circumstances. You can be blessed in the
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: city and blessed in the country. You can be in
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: a season of abundance and still trust God through a
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: season of lack. You can be surrounded by people who
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: support you or standing in a room where nobody recognizes
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: your value. Your circumstances may change, but God's faithfulness does not. Now,
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: don't confuse being blessed with never having a battle. See,
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: sometimes the blessing looks like an unexpected opportunity. Sometimes it
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: looks like the strength to endure and the wisdom to
• 2:00
  Speaker 1: make a better decision or the peace to keep going
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: with everything around you. feels uncertain. So stop believing that
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: you have to be somewhere else. Know somebody important or
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: have everything figured out before God can work in your life.
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: You be faithful right where you are. Honor God in
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: your decisions. Keep your heart aligned with his word and
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: be a good steward of what he's placed in your hands.
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: You don't have to chase every opportunity to prove that
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: you're blessed. Walk with God. Remain faithful. Trust him to
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: direct your steps. Wherever he leads you, his presence is
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: going to go with you. Oh, Father God, thank you
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: for your faithfulness and for the assurance that we never
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: have to walk alone. Help us to honor you, to
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: trust your direction, and remain faithful in every season. God,
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: open our eyes to recognize the blessings already in our
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: lives and give us the wisdom to steward them well.
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: When circumstances are hard, remind us that our hope is
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: in you. not in what we see. Let our lives
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: reflect your goodness wherever we go in Jesus' name. Hey,
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: now that's your word for today. Take it, apply it
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: to your everyday life, and you continue to be encouraged
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: and inspired. It is your early morning praise party. I
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: am Sherri Mackey.
