Is there something you believe God wants you to do, but fear, uncertainty, or a lack of planning has kept you from taking the next step?
Practice
Nehemiah didn't just pray about Jerusalem.
He prepared, made a plan, and took action, trusting God to do what only God could do.
Identify one thing you've been putting off that God has asked you to do.
Prepare, make a plan, and then take action.
Write down your next step, and when you will do it.

Close
