Last week we talked about intentionality—living with purpose, awareness, and direction.
This week, we take it one step deeper:
Timing.
Because you can be intentional…
and still be out of alignment.
In this episode, I unpack a powerful moment from John chapter 7, where even Jesus is being pushed by those around Him to move faster—to go public, to prove Himself, to act now.
And His response?
“My time has not yet come.”
That hit me.
Because if I’m being honest…
Most of my stress in life hasn’t come from a lack of effort.
It’s come from forcing my timing instead of trusting God’s.
We talk about:
- The danger of rushing ahead of God’s timing
- How pressure (from others or ourselves) pulls us out of alignment
- Why stress is often a signal—not just a circumstance
- The difference between being productive… and being in sync with God
- How to recognize when you’re forcing something vs. flowing with it
📖 Scripture referenced:
- John 7:1–8 – “My time has not yet come”
- Ecclesiastes 3:1 – “There is a time for everything…”
- Psalm 27:14 – “Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart…”
If you’ve ever:
- Felt pressure to move faster
- Tried to force outcomes
- Lived in stress, uncertainty, or second-guessing
This episode is for you.
Because the truth is:
If it’s not God’s timing, no amount of force will make it right.
And if it is His timing, no amount of fear can stop it.
Be careful.
Be aware.
Be prayerful.
Be intentional.
And whatever you do…
Don’t take the bait.
