In this episode of God-Sized Dreams, Melissa Batt digs into the truth about procrastination and self-sabotage—and how they quietly keep you from walking in obedience to God.

What if putting things off isn’t about laziness but about fear, insecurity, or overwhelm? Melissa shares honest stories from her own life, showing how small delays in obedience can block blessings and momentum. Through Scripture in James 4 and Deuteronomy 30, she reminds listeners that delayed obedience is still disobedience—and that trusting God with today is what unlocks tomorrow’s peace and purpose.

If you’ve been stuck in cycles of waiting, overthinking, or striving to “get it all together first,” this episode will help you slow down, listen for God’s voice, and take one faithful step forward—today.
