How to Know If God Is Leading You When Nothing Is Changing

In this video, you will discover: • What it means to wait on the Lord (and why biblical waiting is active, not passive) • How the Holy Spirit leads us through waiting, patience, changing circumstances, and closed doors • How to know if God is leading you or if you are acting from your own emotions, thoughts, and desires • Signs that God may be telling you to wait instead of moving ahead • What to do while waiting on God when nothing seems to be changing • Why it is difficult to wait on the Lord and how impatience can lead to costly mistakes • How to trust God’s timing when His answer is delayed • Why God may not have answered your prayer yet (and why silence does not mean absence) • How to discern God’s will in your life when you are unsure what step to take • How to surrender your will to God and follow His direction with peace • Why God may be making you wait before revealing the next step Waiting on God is not wasted time.
