Hi, this is Joel and Victoria. Thanks for listening to our podcast and thanks for supporting the ministry. If you enjoyed today's message, why don't you be a blessing and share it with a friend? We appreciate you and pray for God's very best in your life. Well, God bless you. It's great to be with you today and I hope you'll stay connected with us during the week through our daily podcast, our YouTube channel, social media, and you can come visit us in person. We'd love to have you be a part of one of our services. I like to start with something funny. And I heard about this man. He was on vacation in Jerusalem with his family when his mother-in-law suddenly passed. He went to make arrangements to get the body back home.
And the consulate said it would cost $5,000 to have the body shipped, but he could have her buried right there in Jerusalem for just $150. The man thought about it a moment, said, no, I'd like to have her shipped. The consulate said, wow, you must have really loved your mother-in-law. He said, no, it's not so much that. I just remember a case here years ago when they buried someone and the third day they arose and I can't take that chance. I must say I have an amazing mother-in-law right here on the front row always, but come on, say it like you mean it. This is my Bible. I am what it says I am. I have what it says I have. I can do what it says I can do. Today, I will be taught the word of God. I boldly confess my mind is alert.
My heart is receptive. I will never be the same in Jesus name. God bless you. I want to talk to you today about your time to shine. God created you to leave your mark. You're not supposed to live and die and nobody knew you were here. You have greatness in you. But often we don't recognize who we are. We see ourselves as ordinary and I can't do anything significant. I'm not that talented. I can't accomplish my dream. I don't have the education. I can't defeat this giant. It's too big. We can all find an excuse to shrink back and settle for mediocrity. But Psalm 45 says, God himself has blessed you. Almighty warrior, you are glorious. Go out and perform awe-inspiring deeds. Your God has anointed you. The psalmist is saying, don't you realize who you are?
You're not average, you are glorious. You're not weak, you're a mighty warrior. You're not supposed to just make it through life and survive another year. There are awe-inspiring deeds in you. Things God has destined you to accomplish that will boggle your mind. victories that will catapult your family forward, promotion that will thrust you to a new level, giants you'll defeat that will give you greater influence, greater respect. He's saying, what are you doing shrinking back, living with an ordinary mindset when God says you're glorious? You're a mighty warrior. You were created to do awe-inspiring deeds. See, we know God is glorious. We know he's all powerful. But do you realize you are glorious? You were created in the image of God.
When he made you, he put a part of himself in you. You have the DNA of almighty God. You are powerful. You are favored. You are blessed. You can do awe-inspiring deeds. You can part red seas. You can defeat Goliath. You can bring healing to the sick. You can start your business. You can be the first one in your family to get your degree. Don't go through life thinking you're average when in fact there is greatness in you. It takes faith to say, I believe I'm glorious. I believe I'm a mighty warrior. I believe God himself has blessed me. See, the scripture says the people who know their God will be strong and do mighty exploits. That's God's dream for you. Not an average life, mighty exploits, awe-inspiring deeds.
No more living intimidated. I can't do it. It's too big. No, when you know who you are, you won't run from the giant. You'll run to the giant. God didn't say you would do exploits. He said mighty exploits. That means it's going to be bigger than you can accomplish on your own. You can't do this just in your power, your ability, but God himself has anointed you. The most high is backing you up.
