Domino Effect

Indecision has a domino effect—an inevitable succession of related events, each caused by the one before, action or hesitating to act, affecting others as we go. The longer I consider whether or not to obey God, holding  to my own way and reasoning, the more labored the process becomes, for me and also for those who cannot move until I do!

In your decision-making, guard your heart. Don’t mingle ungodly counsel with your own fearful meditation of worst-case scenarios because the result of that one-two punch is a struggle, and possibly a difficult, bitter outcome. Don’t dig yourself into that hole. 

Instead, refuse unbelief and take authority over thoughts, reasoning, counsel, or fear associated with delayed obedience to the Lord. Remember whatever situation you’re faced with, God is already there! Draw strength from His Word. Read it aloud until His words dominate your thinking and decision-making.

The domino effect works both ways. Welcome back.

Amen.
