God Moves

It is amazing to see how God can move so quickly. It is even more amazing to see how easily God can show us what He wants of us, and how much we do not listen until long after the issue. We only see God move when we get out of the way. The more we play defense against God, the more we will NOT see God move.
Reasons we do not see God move

1. Not believing it can happen because of something we have control over. i.e. too sinful, too weak, not the right person etc. (Not to say we still don't need to clear the sin out of our life.)

2. Seeing God leading one way, and doing the opposite because of; tradition, planning, time, money, habit, sin, etc.

3. Saying you are not sure about God's will when you are. Sticking the fingers in the ears, naaaaanaaaanaaaa I can't hear you God etc.

4. Watching God move and not attributing it to God. Like, 'I am so glad that person is well, now we don't need to keep praying for God to do it."

Then after the fact, we tend to tell God that he didn't move. Wow, I am glad God shows so much mercy to us.
