After an interval.

Galatians 2:1-2, Then after an interval of fourteen years I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, taking Titus along also. And it was because of a revelation that I went up; and I submitted to them the gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but I did so in private to those who were of reputation, for fear that I might be running, or had run, in vain.

Paul received an amazing revelation from the Lord and it’s easy to think that he immediately launched into his world changing ministry. He actually spent years in preparation for what God wanted to do, as did Moses, Joseph, David and others. He humbly submitted to others in private what he was doing in order to be sure he had not missed something. What might God be doing that requires preparation and is to be done in His own time?
