This week’s video teaching may have been a short session (at
a little less than 30 minutes), but it was packed with truth and insight. Everything that touches our lives is sifted
through God’s fingers because we are His kids!
Basically, this means that God must allow what happens to
us. Don’t read on until that truth
begins to sink in.
God calls His people to the wilderness. We’ve been called to yield to the
wilderness. It is God’s will for
us. He wants us to confront our fears
and realize our potential. Sometimes the
wilderness knocks us flat on our backs, but at that point, our only choice is
to look up. Hallelujah!
During our study time this week, we looked at our lives to
determine if we are presently living in the wilderness and how we are
encountering God on that journey. Are we
growing more dependent on Him? We should
be. Are we finding it difficult to
experience intimacy with God? Are we
obedient? Or do we forget that God
provides lavishly for our needs? Are we
being stripped of pride or clinging to arrogance and entitlement?
How is He revealing Himself to you? What is He doing to refuel your tank and
encourage you to keep moving forward with Him?
Are you experiencing refreshment and healing from His hand? I pray you are encountering Him in mighty and
miraculous ways. My own journey is
currently heading toward the mountaintop.
He’s growing me and revealing past immaturity so I don’t condemn others
for similar belief. He is lessening the
anger I feel over certain situations and replacing it with the heart and mind
of Christ that weeps for people, realizing that hurt people hurt people.
Instead of being upset and defensive, He’s teaching me a new
tactic: compassion. I’m growing my prayer list. I’m letting people know I’m available if they
need me. Praise Jesus, I’m being blessed
with more of Him.
