A good way to approach your mission is to run the race with patience, endurance, and long-suffering (Hebrews 12:1-2). It might seem confusing to run with patience. It’s like saying “go, don’t go.” On one hand, run. But on the other hand, be patient. Finding the right balance between running as fast as you can, while being as patient as you can is the real challenge. It is about “don’t rush”, and at the same time, “don’t wait.” It is about moving as fast as you can within the limits of the clarity you have, while being patient with results.
A person of mountain moving faith must also learn to be patient. To take things a day at a time, no matter how great the vision might be on the inside. Spiritually attuned people are often frustrated with how slowly things seem to move in the physical. Your spirit can see in a flash things to happen over the course of fifty (50) years. But your natural senses, body, and the physical parts of the universe can not catch up with your spirit until another 1,577,880,000 seconds. The vision you see is in a future that is yet to arrive. You have to be patient.
The Bible says “The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness” (2 Peter 3:9). The vision is for an appointed time in your future. We must never judge ourselves as being slow or fast based on what others are doing. Your instructions come from the Lord, and it is the Lord that will judge you faithful or not. Limit yourself to operate within the boundaries of what you’re sure God wants you to do. And when you’re done, wait for the next instructions. You are not too slow.
