Monday Motivation 11-17-25 - God Doesn’t Call the Qualified He Qualifies the Called

Most Christians don’t miss their calling because they’re not qualified.

They miss it because they don’t feel qualified.

In this week’s Monday Motivation, DJ Smith tackles one of the greatest lies believers tell themselves — “I’ll serve when I’m ready.” The truth? You’ll die waiting if you wait to feel ready.

God never asked for perfection — He asked for willingness.

He specializes in using ordinary, unqualified people to do extraordinary things.

💡 In this video, you’ll learn:

- Why waiting to feel ready is one of Satan’s most effective tactics

- What Moses, Gideon, Jeremiah, and the apostles all had in common

- Why your weaknesses don’t disqualify you — they position you for God’s strength

- The difference between confidence and obedience

- Three practical ways to move forward even when you feel unprepared

📖 Key Scriptures Referenced:

Exodus 4:10–12, Judges 6:14–15, Jeremiah 1:6, 2 Corinthians 12:9, John 14:15, Ephesians 2:10

🔥 3 Truths About God’s Calling:

1️⃣ God doesn’t need your ability — just your availability.

→ Like Moses, He’ll give you the words when you need them.

2️⃣ Insecurity is spiritual warfare.

→ The enemy doesn’t have to destroy you — he just needs to delay you.

3️⃣ Delayed obedience is still disobedience.

→ When God says move, move. Don’t wait to feel qualified.

💬 Questions to Reflect On:

1. How many blessings have I missed because I hesitated?

2. How many prayers went unanswered because I wouldn’t take the first step?

3. What is God calling me to do that I keep postponing?

📌 This week’s challenge:

Stop waiting for permission. Stop waiting for perfection. Stop waiting to feel ready.

Take one step toward what God has already called you to do.

Remember:

“God doesn’t call the qualified. He qualifies the called.”
