Do Not Hesitate
Remember Lot's wife! Luke 17:32
Lot’s wife hesitated instead of completely obeying God’s instructions and she took a look back at her old life and it cost her everything; she turned into a pillar of salt. Genesis 19
I own a cookie company and I had been working with this vendor for months to have our cookies placed in their shop. The vendor has about five different locations and targets a certain audience. They asked if I could make a specific kind of cookie for them and I did.
We went through a lot of different variations and packaging to finally come up with something that would work for the both of us. Their first order was three hundred and sixty cookies. I was prepared with everything in order to fill that number of cookies. When I received the order I heard this quiet prompt in my spirit to check my inventory. I remembering saying, “Okay.” but I was confident that I had enough inventory.
Three days before the delivery, I was at an appointment with my sister-in-law regarding the next steps for her healing when I received a text message from my husband. It was a picture of the freezer where I had stored the product and a puddle of water was sitting on the outside of the freezer. He asked me if I was defrosting the freezer with all the product inside? I went into immediate concern!
I called him and he said that he went into the garage to check on something and saw the puddle by the freezer. He opened up the freezer and saw that the freezer was turned off. Somehow the circuit that the freezer was attached to had flipped off and we had no idea. My product had started to get a little soft, but they were still frozen. Immediately I heard the words, “I told you to check your product.” Ugh! I just repented and ask God to save the product. There was well over a thousand cookies of different varieties in that freezer.
When I got home I immediately checked the product and did some research to see if it was ok to still use it if it got defrosted and then refrozen. Thank God everything was fine! I also found out after checking the product that I was off count by seventy cookies for the order that I was to fill in three days. I had filled an order previously and forgot to deduct the number.
The voice of God is always speaking and when he tells us to move, we should move. It is so important that we do not hesitate when he says, “Move!” If I had moved when he said so, I would have known that the freezer was off and probably also about the low inventory. When God whispers into your ears, do exactly what he says; no matter what you think.
Our God is very kind and gracious, but at some point our disobedience could cost us our life!
