In this sermon excerpt, Blake Robert Templeton argues that many men lose spiritual clarity because they never pause to reflect and seek divine wisdom. He describes a culture of constant activity—building businesses, accumulating wealth, and grinding—without the stillness needed to hear God. Templeton emphasizes that true direction comes from stillness, citing Psalm 46:10, "Be still and know that I am God," and asserts that the more capacity one has for building, the greater the need for divine wisdom to steward that capacity. He frames chaos as something to be transformed into ordered structure under God's reign, urging listeners to intentionally slow down and listen for God's guidance in managing their success.

Chapters

So this is so normal. Men lose clarity because they've never slowed down to think. They never slowed down to gain wisdom from heaven. They were running, gunning, building, multiplying, growing businesses, having money flowing, and they never slowed down to gain wisdom from God. Just moving, grinding. But direction requires stillness. And the more capacity you have for building, the more wisdom you need. We don't move by chaos. We transform chaos into structure ordered by the King of Kings. Like, it reminds me of Psalm 46:10, "Be still and know that I am God." So if God is giving us something, we wanna actually listen to him for the wisdom on how to steward it.
