Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's your early morning praise party. I am Sherry back in.
It's time right now for today's word. Keep praising through
the waiting, Keep praising through the waiting. Romans Ford twenty
through twenty one says he never doubted that God would
keep his promise, and he never stopped believing. He grew
(00:21):
stronger in his faith and gave praise to God. You know,
Abraham's story reminds us that faith isn't just about believing once.
It's about believing continually, even when times keep passing and
nothing seems to change. When God promised Abraham a son
is seventy five years old, it took twenty five years
(00:42):
before Isaac was finally born. But in that long stretch
of waiting, Abraham didn't lose hope. He didn't let doubt
drown out his faith. Instead, he kept giving God praise, declaring, Lord,
thank you for my son. Oooh, thank you that you
are faithful to your word. See that's how you know
(01:05):
he kept believing. That's how you keep your faith strong.
By praising God while you're waiting. Praise shifts your focus
from what hasn't happened yet to the one who promised
that it would happen. When you thank God in advance,
you're telling Heaven, I trust you even when I can't
trace you. Every time you lift your hands in worship,
every time you open your mouth and gratitude, you're building
(01:28):
spiritual momentum. You're saying, God, I still believe that it's coming.
You may be waiting for healing. You may be waiting
for restoration. You may be waiting for open doors or breakthrough.
You prayed about it, you believe, and nothing seems to
be happening or moving. Don't you dare be discouraged. God
is still working behind the scenes. The waiting is not
(01:51):
wasted time. It's preparation time. You're praised in the middle
of uncertainty is proof of your faith. Heaven takes notice
when you keep raising, and the promise starts moving in
your direction. Come own, Jesus so today, don't let weariness
still your worship. Keep praising, Keep thanking God for what's
on the way, Keep declaring his faithfulness even before you
(02:14):
see evidence. Like Abraham, your praise will strengthen your faith
and position you for the promise. What God has spoken
over your life is not forgotten. It's in transit and
is carrying your name. The wait may be long, but
the fulfillment will be worse. Every moment of praise, Oh Father, God,
(02:35):
thank you. Thank you that you are faithful to your
word and that you never forget your promise. Even when
we don't see it, we know you're working. Help us
to keep praising through the weight in God, to stay
strong and faith and to live with expectaation. God, we
trust that what you've spoken over our life is on
(02:56):
the way in Jesus' name, that's your word for today.
I want you to take it applau to your everyday life,
and you keep on praising through the waiting and continue
to be encouraged and inspired with me, your girl, Sherry Mackie,
it's your early morning praise PARTI
