When God Says SLOW

By the end of the last service my voice was gone......but everything went great. Huge crowd and great energy! Moreover I think the worship and message hit home for a lot of people. It is never easy getting the answer to our prayer as SLOW...WAIT....CAUTION.

However, when we get those answers......we can explore what it is that God wants us to do, to know and experience while he gives us the SLOW yellow sign. Remember, when go does not give you a clear NO or Yes....it is because their is something else going on. God is far more concerned with your heart, character, obedience and the process of your life than He is in just making you happy for a moment.

Here is what we learned yesterday.....

God may say SLOW....when the timing of your request wrong!

God may say SLOW ....when YOU need to Grow.

* You may need to grow in your faith, trust, or just maturity.

God may say SLOW.....when you have un-confessed sin in your life OR you are choosing to live a sinful life.

God may SLOW....when you need to gather more information because you are going to have to make a decision based on the Wisdom of God and not the Will of God.

If you are getting SLOW from God.....check and see if any of these apply! Also, a few people asked about the book I referenced. It is called he • Contrarian Guide To Leadership by Dr. Steve Sample. It is also on my recently read book list.

Never make a decision today that can reasonably be put off to tomorrow. Learn To think gray. Don't form opinions if you don't have to...until you have to.
