Summary

Main message: Don't use "I'll pray about it" as a way to avoid obeying clear instruction from Scripture; when God speaks through Scripture or a brother/sister, respond with obedience rather than a prayer-stall.

Key points:

  • "I'll pray about it" is often a tactical excuse to delay obedience, not a spiritual response.
  • If Scripture or another believer shows you something to stop or start doing, God has already spoken to you.
  • Saying you'll pray as a way out is described as inappropriate and even "blasphemous" in the sermon.
  • God doesn't need to be persuaded—He wants you to act on what you've been told.
  • Remember this admonition so you won't default to prayer as a dodge next time.
