Big impact doesn’t start with a microphone in your hand or a crowd in the seats. It doesn’t begin when the spotlight hits you or when the applause breaks out. Big impact begins with small, unseen faithfulness.
It’s the small things that lead to the big things. The things no one sees are what bring about the things everyone wants. It’s the quiet, consistent, intentional choices to obey God when no one else is watching.
It’s the early mornings and the extremely late hours on our knees before God alone. It’s the wrestling—not against people—but against “the rulers, against the authorities, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places” (Ephesians 6:12).
It’s the deep, deep self-denying sacrifices no one applauds. It’s the putting of others’ needs ahead of our own, not because it’s convenient or easy, but because Jesus did the same for us. It’s the work done in secret—acts of obedience, moments of prayer, quiet generosity—that God Himself sees and rewards openly.
The truth is, we don’t have to manufacture the work of God. We don’t have to force His hand or create our own platform. He is already at work among the small, unseen faithfulness of His servants. Our job is simply to remain faithful where He has placed us—whether the crowd notices or not.
Because in the Kingdom, the smallest seeds grow into the largest trees. The unseen moments are the birthplace of the visible miracles. And the hands that labor in secret will one day hear Him say, “Well done, good and faithful servant.”
