A beautiful morning to you and welcome to today's expression of igniting your day. Today, the word of the Lord for you is do the work God gives you. Do the work God gives you. This morning, I want to share a word that came with a central theme. It was as though the Lord was saying to me, Walk for me, and these are the things I will offer you as you do. Usually, when the Lord wants to show me something, he shows me someone. But this time the face I was seeing was my own. That made me understand that the Lord was speaking directly to me. But I also know that what he says to one, he says to all. As I was doing the work, the beauty of the Lord was resting on me. There was a visible evidence that something divine was happening around me. I do not know what the Lord has committed into your hands today, but this much I know. This God owes nobody. He has not called you to serve him in vain. He has not called you to labor for him without reward. So, the word of the Lord to you this morning is simple. Do the work, do that which has committed into your hands. As you do the work, the beauty of the Lord will rest upon you, and the work will prosper in your hands. Indeed, there is a beauty that begins to come upon your life. And if you are not walking alone, if you are part of a team, then you will not be the only one looking good. The beauty of the Lord will rest upon every member of your team. There is indeed a beauty of the Lord expected to come upon you for committing yourself to the work of the Lord. The second thing I saw was slightly different, but it carried the same spirit. This time, as I was doing the work, I saw the favor and beauty of the Lord coming upon my life, like his dream that had already started flowing. The scripture the Lord supplied here was Isaiah 58, verse 10 and 11. The Bible says there, if you extend your soul to the hungry and satisfy the afflicted soul, then your light shall dawn in the darkness, and your darkness shall be as the noonday. The Lord will guide you continually and satisfy your soul in wrath, and strengthen your bones. You shall be like a watered garden and like a spring of water, whose waters do not fail. Friends, this is the Lord showing us that there is nothing you do for Him that is ever wasted. But there is a condition here. The Bible says, if you extend your soul to the hungry and satisfy the afflicted soul, that means God is putting in your hands something that is not for private consumption alone. He's calling you to be kingdom-minded, he's calling you to become a channel, he's calling you to pour into others in a way that truly satisfies. After meeting you, they should be able to conclude that indeed God sent help to them. So, the Lord is asking you this morning: can he trust you with hungry souls? Can he trust you with afflicted souls? Can he trust you to carry what he gives and release it as well? As you do that, your own light begins to dawn in the darkness, your own drought is addressed, your own bones are strengthened, your own life becomes like a watered garden. This is the wisdom of the kingdom. As you pour out, God pours into you. The third thing I saw was this. The Lord gives what I call maturity appropriate responsibilities. He is so good, he is so intelligent. He is not careless with his assignments. He knows where you are today, he knows what you can carry today, he knows what you can handle today, he knows the volume and complexity that matches your present growth in him. The scripture the Lord supplied here was Matthew 11, 29 and 30. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light. I want you to hear this carefully. One reason many people suffer unnecessarily is because they receive something from God and because it feels urgent, they assume it must be executed immediately and at full scale. This happens a lot in ministry. But God is wiser than that. What he reveals may look like now because he is in a timeless dimension. But what he assigns is always measured. He gives responsibilities according to your maturity. Then, as you grow, he can increase the volume. As you grow, he can increase the complexity. As you grow, he can increase the weight. That means the Lord is not trying to break you, he is trying to build you. And this should make you grateful because we do not have a high priest who is unaware of our infirmities. Hebrews 4 15. He understands our level. He knows what we can bear. He is caring enough to measure the burden according to the maturity he has already built in us. The fourth thing I saw was that the Lord enables objectivity in the delivery of his message, so that the things going on in your life do not get in the way of what he wants to be said. This is serious grace. Maybe you are here and you found yourself struggling to deliver what the Lord gave you without mixing it with private emotions, unresolved disappointments, or the pressure of your current circumstances. Then this word is for you. Jeremiah chapter 1, verses 17 to 19 says, Therefore, prepare yourself and arise and speak to them all that I command you. Do not be dismayed before their faces, lest I dismay you before them. For behold, I have made you this day a fortified city and an iron pillar, the bronze walls against the whole land. They will fight against you, but they shall not prevail against you. For I am with you, says the Lord, to deliver you. The phrase that stands out for me here is this speak to them all that I command you, all, not part, not a softened version, not a filtered version, not a version adjusted to suit faces, not a version adjusted to suit reactions, not a version adjusted to suit emotions. The Lord wants vessels through whom he can speak clearly and fully. That means your mind must be trained, your heart must be aligned, your courage must be strengthened. If you are too emotional, you will not speak all. If you are too affected by faces, you will not speak all. But the Lord is calling you to a place where you prepare yourself, arise, and speak all that he commands. That is a grace to ask for. It is you. Your life belongs to him, your body is his temple. So when he says, I will glorify the house of my glory, he's talking about what belongs to him and carries him. And I want you to hear this. No present level of glory in your life is the final version. No, the Lord glorifies this house from glory to glory. That's why the scripture says we are transformed from glory to glory. As you behold him, as you show up in his presence, as you continue in his work, this house of glory is glorified. The Lord keeps adding more glory to this house of glory. A final thing the Lord showed me was this. He expects us to follow the glorious path he has prepared for each of us. You can find this in Ephesians chapter 2, verse 10 in the Amplified Classic. For we are God's own handiwork, his workmanship, recreated in Christ Jesus, born anew, that we may do those good works which He predestined, planned beforehand for us, taking paths which He prepared ahead of time, that we should walk in them, living the good life which he prearranged and made ready for us to live. There is a path. It is glorious, it is prepared, and it is not discovered by wandering, it is walked in by obedience. The Lord expects you to stay on that path. He expects you to remain on it. Do not turn to the right, do not turn to the left. Continue on the path He prepared for you. And this is not only for you, it is also for your children. Pray that they will not miss the path. Pray that they will not tread it. Pray that they will not abandon it. Pray that they will walk in what God prepared for them. The path prepared by God leads to the destiny curated by God. Finally, this is the word of the Lord for you this morning. Do the work he has committed into your hands. Pour out to the hungry. Satisfy the afflicted soul. Receive responsibilities according to your maturity. Speak all that he commands. Allow him to glorify the house of his glory and stay on the path he prepared for you. This path is glorious. Stay on it. And please remember this: God is not calling you into vanity, he's not calling you into emptiness. He's not calling you into wasted effort. When he asks you to work for him, he already has provision attached to obedience. So please say yes to him, do the work, and let the beauty, the favor, the strength, the objectivity, the glory, and the guidance of God rest upon your life in the name of Jesus. I believe you have been blessed by the inspiration and revelation shared this morning. Till I come your way again tomorrow.
