How do you know if God wants you to move on an idea now or later? A few years ago, I got this idea to build an app. I was pretty sure it was from God because when I received it, the intention was to use it to help God's people. But here's the thing, I don't know how to make an app. So I thought, God, do you just want me to drop everything and learn how to code or is this something you want me to learn later on after I develop the skills? But then I came across this Bible verse, "Sow your seed in the morning and at evening let your hands not be idle, for you do not know which will succeed, whether this or that or whether both will do equally well." So then I felt behind like I should be developing the skills. I should be figuring out how to make the thing. But then I heard somebody quote this, "The Lord will fight for you. You need only to be still." So then I thought, wait, do I just need to relax? What is God trying to tell me? And after getting really anxious about it, the Holy Spirit reminded me of what happened in Genesis. God spoke something to Adam and Eve, gave them an idea, direction, and then the enemy came in and said, "Did God really say that?" And it led them to be in confused. So instead of going back to God to confirm what he said, they did what they thought was right. Which I understand because if I don't know what to do, that's all I have to go off of. Now we know because of Adam and Eve's mistake, we were all separated from God, but because of Jesus, in dying for all of our mistakes, God in human form sacrificed himself so that if we choose to believe in him, believe what he said and did, we could be brought back into a relationship with him. So pause for a moment. What if God wants us to prioritize the way we do something over the timing of when we execute an idea? The Bible says, "But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength." But that word for wait doesn't mean wait and do nothing. It means to put our hope in, waiting with expectations. So whether we move on an idea now or an idea later, the Bible says, "And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him. Whatever we do, whenever we do it, we are to do it in the name of God, giving thanks along the way." Because the way we do it is the most important thing because Jesus says, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you really know me, you will know my Father as well. How do we know Jesus? How do we learn the way? By doing what Adam and Eve should have done, going back to God and learning what did he really say? How do you want me to build this app? How do you want me to write that book? How do you want me to live my life? Even though you may wait to move on that idea, we don't need to wait to learn God's way. Let us know how we can be praying for each other. God bless you, friends.
