READ: James 1:5-8
«A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.» - James 1:8
Be decisive ! You will always have to take decisions. You will be blamed or rewarded for your decisions. You must know how to take decisions.
Double-minded people are unstable and indecisive. It is time to make up your mind and take the crucial decisions that God wants you to take. Some people do not take decisions because of their phlegmatic temperaments. Phlegmatic people are slow thinking men whose first option is to rest or do nothing. It takes great effort for them to rise out of their inertia and take a step. People are indecisive because they have not thought through their plans carefully. They do not want to follow things through to their logical conclusions. A lot of your indecision would be overcome if you understand that you are already committed and there is no way out. Stopping in the middle is madness. You might as well finish what you started.
In war, indecision can cost you everything. During the Second World War, Adolf Hitler’s Germany decided to invade France, Holland and Belgium. The English armies crossed into France to join the war and fight Germany. They were no match for the modern and well-prepared German armies. The entire British army was pushed back to the sea and encircled at a place called Dunkirk. Adolf Hitler was gripped by indecision and wavered between destroying the British armies and allowing them to escape across the sea. The entire British army escaped across the sea to safety, where they would regroup and return to defeat Germany a few years later.
