The children of Israel had first hand experience of the harsh wilderness. A place where water and food were scarce. A place where no vegetation can grow. What met ones eyes was mere desolation and bleakness.
God who leads us in green pastures is the one who will also lead us in the heart of the cruel desert.
It is a time where the rubber meets the road, a litmus test for all who claim to be the followers of Christ.
The “wilderness experience” brings out the reality of our limitations and vulnerabilities. This is where our weaknesses and dependence on God shines. By God's miraculous power, our courage does not melt. We declare that God is the strength of our hearts.
We rise above the occasion.
We purpose in our hearts to remain faithful. We cry out to God for help and deliverance.
We remain strong in the face of insurmountable challenges. We emerge from the crisis stronger than before. We are victors in Christ. We rise with His banner of victory.
The power of God's Spirit is on His redeemed people. We live each day to declare His faithfulness from generation to generation.
