"Before I Make Another Move" by Kierra Sol: Why Pausing Is the Boldest Act of Faith


What if the bravest thing you could do wasn't to move faster, but actually to pause? That's the key message of "Before I Make Another Move" by Kierra Sol. It's an anthem for anyone trying to hear God before they move.

Kierra Sol - Before I Make Another MoveThe song speaks directly to those in-between moments between moving forward and waiting on direction. Not lost, but it's not clear either. You're ready to move, but something inside says wait, what if I get it wrong… The pressure is real. The fear of getting it wrong is real. And in that silence, doubts can creep in - especially when it feels like everyone else is progressing while you're still standing still.

This song is a reminder that pausing isn't falling behind. Instead of rushing ahead, Kierra invites you not to rush those things that require His direction. Her message is honest, relatable, and deeply freeing when you are able to accept that posture of dependence. The key is to hear clearly, trust fully, and try not to rush ahead of what God is doing. 

Does it sound familiar? Do you feel the urgency to move forward while you're not (yet) hearing His direction? If that is the case, Kierra shared that this song was especially written for you! Don't underestimate the power of a surrendered pause! Go ahead and give the long a listen. May it recalibrate your next step. Take a moment, breathe, and pray… "Before I make another move, I just need to know You're still leading, God."

(Related scripture: Psalm 37:7; Proverbs 3:5-6; Isaiah 30:21)

Background:

For anyone trying to hear God before they move, this is your anthem.

“Before I Make Another Move” is a raw, honest reflection of what it feels like to be stuck between moving forward and waiting on direction.

If you’ve ever been in that space 
Where you’re not lost… but you’re not clear either 
This song is for you 
Take a moment 
Breathe 
And don’t rush what requires direction

"I Will Rejoice" by Maria Segerholm: Thankful for the Sunshine and the Rain

Joy is a choice you can make today. “I Will Rejoice” by Maria Segerholm is a song of joy and praise, and her message is that joy is a choice despite the challenges we face. Maria has been called a happy person since she was a little girl. The unexpected happened, the trials came. Seasons arrived when her joy faded, and she says the enemy worked hard to steal her joy. Does that sound familiar? Those seasons didn’t last. Over the past few years, God has taught Maria what it means to rejoice in Him at all times, and this song, “I Will Rejoice”, grew from that lesson. Listen to how she sings it. Clouds try to block her light, yet she won’t stay down. Pain tries to break her praise, so she sings His Name. Fear shakes her soul, and she gives thanks “cause I know You’re good.” Notice the words that Maria uses: Clouds, pain, fear, and noise… They all “try,” but none of them win. Joy here is a choice that she makes again and again, long before her feelings catch up. The bridge pushes further....

"King Of All Nations" by Ezra Worship Initiative: Sing Today What Heaven Will Sing Forever

Your worship today echoes eternity. Ezra Worship Initiative trains young worship leaders through a ten-week, seminary-based internship. Their songwriters learn Scripture first and melody second. You can hear this in their latest release, “King Of All Nations,” a song written for congregations to sing. The song opens as a prayer: “May Your Name be proclaimed in all creation.” Who does the proclaiming? The Church does. The second verse asks God to “send Your Church to go and tell the gospel story,” which puts all who sing this right inside the request. Who on your street has never heard His name from you? Then the chorus lifts the roof: “All the honor, voices lifted to the King.” Worship here is not a performance. It is sung as a community, young and old, a multigenerational voice of praise. The bridge looks ahead. “All will come, and all will bow.” John saw the same moment: “a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, stan...

"No Other Name" by Joakim Arenius and Josef Tingbratt: Hope That Outlasts the Darkness

Darkness grips hard, but one name holds harder. Where do you turn when your strength runs out? Josef Tingbratt and Joakim Arenius wrote “No Other Name” for that moment. Their song follows a man who is “Restless weary and alone,” “So many miles from home.” Inner voices that treat him unkindly. Then a night raid brings brutal violence: “They tried to break his body down, but they could not break his crown.” Notice what he does when “darkness gets its grip.” He calls Jesus: “Jesus, Jesus hear my cry.” No fancy words, just a cry. The song grew where two struggles meet. Some believers face ridicule or violence for following Jesus. Others fight a quieter battle with loneliness and doubt. Both struggles need the same answer. Peter answered the rulers who questioned him in Acts 4:12: “And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.” He spoke with threats hanging over him. His confidence never rested on comfortable c...
