SUNDAY SERMON: VALUE THE PROCESS

ECCLESIASTES 3:1
Today many want to be great, many want to be successful, but not many want to follow the right process. If you want to become God’s person, you must follow His process. Nothing happens for nothing, and nothing comes by chance. Successful people don’t just drift to the top. Everything good takes time and preparation. Jesus lived on earth for 33 years, and the first 30 years were preparatory. So you also must learn to value processing more than results. You may be blessed today, but without going through the right process, that blessing will not stand the test of time. Anything that comes in a hurry, goes in a hurry.
So learn to be patient. Life is in stages. Life is a marathon not a sprint. If you are in a haste to achieve something in life, you are bound to make costly mistakes that will pull you back, if not down. Impatience is very costly. Your greatest mistakes in life will happen as a result of impatience. If you are too desperate to achieve success without minding the process, you will not be able to differentiate between God’s supply and satan’s bait. Learn to value the process. The process is what will help you to maintain the result. If the process is not God’s process, the result will not stand the test of time. Remember, God cannot maintain what He did not form.
Nothing good happens without discipline. God is trying to build character now, so that when you get to the place of destiny, you will not crash and explode and lose it all. Delay is not denial. At God’s time you will make it. God’s time is the best time. God is never too early, God is never too late, God Almighty is always on time. So stop comparing yourself to others, because each time you compare yourself to others, you are forsaking your own race. Your process may not be the same as someone else’s process. There is no competition in destiny. Wait patiently for the Lord, because at God’s time, everything is beautiful! Emmanuel!
