How to Navigate New Seasons - Pastor David LeMarr

Navigating new seasons in our spiritual journey requires strength and courage, just as Joshua needed when leading Israel into the Promised Land. Growth often brings discomfort, but it's necessary for spiritual maturity. To successfully navigate these transitions, we must keep God's Word in our mouths, speaking life rather than complaints, and follow His presence even into unfamiliar territory. God sometimes ends one provision (like the manna) to move us toward something better. These challenging transitions are actually opportunities for deeper maturity and fruitfulness in our faith journey.

Keep the Bible in your mouth - what we speak matters, especially during times of change and growth.

Follow God's presence - just as the Israelites followed the Ark of the Covenant, we need to be led by the Spirit rather than our own preferences.

When spiritual practices feel dry or stale, it may be God's way of pushing you into a new season of growth.

Growth and change are often uncomfortable but necessary for spiritual maturity.

Our faith is meant to be lived in community, not in isolation.
