The Narrow Way

You didn’t waste the waiting.
You didn’t miss your moment.
You didn’t get overlooked, you were being prepared.

Because before God reveals what He’s doing through you,
He works deeply in you.
And the deeper the call, the longer the preparation.
But now?
The hidden ones are being called out.

Not for glory.
Not for applause.
But for assignment.

Because God is not looking for the most polished,
He’s looking for the most postured.
Those who stayed in the secret place when it felt quiet.
Those who didn’t rush the process.
Those who let Him break, shape, and anoint them when no one was watching.

Just like David.
Anointed in secret.
Serving in obscurity.
Until one day, heaven said, “Send for him.”
And in front of everyone who didn’t choose him, God revealed him.

God is still doing that.
He’s still saying, “Call them out.”

The overlooked daughter.
The weary intercessor.
The quiet worshiper.
The one who didn’t need a stage to burn with love.

He’s calling out the hidden ones not to elevate their name,
But to establish His Kingdom.

Isaiah 49:2 says,
“He made me into a polished arrow and concealed me in His quiver.”

You weren’t delayed.
You were concealed.
And now, at the right time, He’s releasing you.

Releasing your voice.
Releasing the oil.
Releasing the words, the worship, the wisdom that was formed in the crushing.

So walk out of hiding with humility.
Not to prove anything, just to obey.
Not to impress anyone, just to shine.

This isn’t your debut.
It’s His glory being revealed through your yes.

So take your place.
Step into the room.
Lift your eyes, and hear Him say:
“You’ve been faithful with little. Now I trust you with more.”

And as you move, don’t forget the secret place.
Because the same oil that called you out…
Will keep you sustained.

You were hidden for a reason.
Now you’re released for a purpose.
