| Wilderness Seasons • In our Christian journey

| Wilderness Seasons
•
In our Christian journey with God, we can often find ourselves in places of discomfort, testing, trials, and hard stuff that makes us wonder where God is.

Not understanding that we may actually be in a wilderness season and that it’s God who takes us through the wilderness to get us to the promise land. A metaphoric term for promises He’s given to you for your life.

We have to understand that when God is leading us to a promise land, often times the route that He takes us through is the wilderness route.

And this where so many people’s faith gets shipwrecked…because they don’t understand the season!

--------

We see in Ex. 13 an account that Moses wrote about how God lead them into the wilderness.

Exodus 13:17-18
“When Pharaoh finally let the people go, God did not lead them along the main road that runs through Philistine territory, even though that was the shortest route to the Promised Land. God said, “If the people are faced with a battle, they might change their minds and return to Egypt.” So God led them in a roundabout way through the wilderness toward the Red Sea.”

God had just worked a miracle – He delivered these people out of the hands of the Egyptians then He led them through the long route of going through the wilderness.

Why does God take us through the Wilderness?
“The purpose of the wilderness is to purify and strengthen us. Our pursuit is to be His heart, not His provision. Then when we come into abundant times, we won’t forget that it is the Lord, our God, who gives us abundance in order to establish His covenant.” – John Bevere

God wants to strengthen us and purify us.

Here’s the good news:

He’s saying to you, “it is time” to break camp and move on! He’s taking you places!

Will you obey Him and allow Him to take you in the path that’s required to get you to the promise land?

On the other side of your obedience, God is saying: “look, I am giving all this to you! Now go in and occupy it, for it is what I have promised you!”

Persevering In Faith by Pastor May Dobbins

I want to encourage any of us who may need encouragement today.

Maybe you had some hopes and plans for 2020 and due to all that has taken place so far, those plans have become distant thoughts and you’re deeply discouraged.

Maybe you’ve been believing for God to come through in some way and it’s been a long time and you haven’t seen the breakthrough yet. And you feeling disappointed and hurt.

OR maybe all the news, conflict and chaos has gotten to you. And you’ve been feeling all the affects of anxiousness or uncertainness.

Whatever it is, I believe God really wants to encourage you today with some verses as a reminder to keep PERSEVERING in faith.

Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful.

Hebrews 10:23

“When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place. Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them.”

A majority of my friends are women of color. I love them dearly. They are beautiful, talented gifted and anointed.
I cannot comprehend the fear, anxiety, worry, concern or apprehension they may have when their husband or son leaves the house ... a simple trip to the grocery, a late night run.
My heart is deeply grieved seeing the prejudice, hatred & injustice that is pervading our society.
I don’t know what I can do to bring a solution. But I want to do something.
What I do know is this ...
I can value human life because human life is valuable.
I can treat people with the love & respect they deserve because they are created in the image of God. I can listen to my friends and learn from their experiences.
I can continue to cultivate a culture of honor in my life, family & church so that others can taste of & experience this heavenly culture.
I can walk with empathy & compassion.
I can pray. I can war against the kingdom of darkness & its wicked schemes against humanity.
I can live my life loving people of all ethnicities with the love that apprehended my heart ... the love of Jesus Christ. And I can hope that like the Butterfly Effect, my life can positively & powerfully have a ripple effect in our world.
