Transitions | Pastor Lawrence C. Barnes, Jr

FEBRUARY 15, 2026God is the God of transition, faithfully leading His people from one season to the next. Drawing from John 20:17 and the journey of Israel, Pastor Barnes reveals that transitions are the in-between places where God carefully regulates timing, strength, and capacity. What feels like delay is not denial, but divine calculation and protection—God moving “little by little” to prepare us for what’s ahead.Transitions are not just about movement, but transformation. As Jesus told Mary, “Touch me not,” there are moments when we must release what is familiar to embrace what is next. Though vulnerability increases and the enemy may attack, God remains present and intentional. When the path is unclear, trust the One who is positioning you—He is faithful to complete the work and bring you into promise.
