Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's her early morny praise party. I am Sherry Mackie
and it's time right now. Four Today's word, Say yes
to your miracle. Say yes to your miracle, John in
five and six. John five and six says when Jesus
saw him lying there and learned that he had been
(00:21):
in this condition for a long time, he asked, do
you want to get well? When Jesus approached the man
at the pool of Bethesta and John five, he found
someone who had been lying in the same condition for thirty.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
Eight long years.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
Imagine that, decades of disappointment, decades of watching others get
their healing while he remained stuck.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
Jesus asked him.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
And asked what seemed to be an obvious question, do
you want to get well? It wasn't a question of ability,
It was a question of agreement. Jesus was really saying,
will you believe again?
Speaker 2 (01:01):
Will you give me.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
Permission to work in your life? Instead of saying yes, Lord,
I want to be healed, the man began explaining why.
Speaker 2 (01:10):
He couldn't be healed. There's no one to help me.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
Every time I try, someone gets there before me. Huh,
Like so many of us, he was focused on the
obstacles instead of the opportunity standing right in front of him.
Jesus was offering transformation, but the man's mind was.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
Still a limitation. How many times do we do the
same thing?
Speaker 1 (01:37):
God says, I'm ready to bless you, and we respond,
But God, I've made.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Too many mistakes. He says, I want.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
To bring you into overflow, and we say, but the
economy's too bad.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
We give God reason after.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Reason after reason instead of simply getting into.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Agreement with him.
Speaker 1 (01:56):
Yet God doesn't need favorable conditions. He just needs you
to get an agreement. He needs you to say yes.
Faith gives Heaven permission to move. When you align your words,
your mindset, and your expectation with God's promises, miracles happen.
The moment the man stopped making excuses and obey Jesus's
(02:18):
command to get up, pick up your mat, and walk,
everything in his life changed.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
Strength came where there had been weakness. Healing came where
there had been hurt.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
One act of agreement, unlike thirty eight years of breakthrough.
What's your mat today? What's that thing that has kept
you stuck? The situation that's convinced you to settle? Where
you are. God is asking you today, do you wanna
get well?
Speaker 2 (02:47):
Do you wanna be free?
Speaker 1 (02:50):
Do you wanna see change in your life and your family?
Stop rehearsing the reasons why you can't and start agreeing
with the one who said.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
As you can.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
The same voice that spoke healing over that man is
speaking over you today.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Will you give him your yes?
Speaker 1 (03:09):
Will you get in agreement with him? Father, thank you
that we don't have to stay stuck in old habits
and disappointments or excuses. God, we give you permission. God,
move in our lives.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
God, we believe that.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
You're bigger than our limitations. You're stronger than our passing,
You're greater than our doubts. Today, God, we say yes
yes to.
Speaker 2 (03:31):
Our miracle and Jesus' name. Now that's your word for today.
Speaker 1 (03:36):
I want you to take that word, apply it to
your everyday life and you continue to be encouraged and
inspired on your early morning praise party with me your girls,
Sherry Mackie, as you say yes to your miracle
