Out In The Wilderness

OUT IN THE WILDERNESS

THERE WAS TWO WAYS FRROM EGYPT TO CANAAN. ONE WAY WAS ONLY A FEW DAYS JOURNEY; THE OTHER WAS MUCH FURTHER. THE WAY THAT GOD CHOSE WAS THROUGH THE WILDERNESS AND THAT WAS THE WAY GOD CHOSE TO LEAD US. GOD KNOWS WHO’S SPIRITUALLY FIT FOR BLESSINGS AND WHO’S NOT. SOME HAD TO DIE OUT SIMPLY BECAUSE THEY WERE NOT FIT TO ENTER INTO THE BLESSING SEAT OF GOD.

OUT IN THE WILDERNESS

TRIAL ISSUES

THE EGYPTIANS WERE TO DROWN IN THE RED SEA BUT GOD SPOKE UNTO MOSES AND TOLD HIM TO PUT OUT HIS STAFF TO PART THE SEA THAT THEY MAY ESCAPE. THEY WERE TO BE PROVED, THEY WERE TO BE HUMBLED IN THE WILDERNESS.

SUCH AS SOME OF US SOMETIME OUR WILDERNESS EXPERIENCE IS TO TRY US AND HUMBLE US. SOME ADHERE AND SOME DON’T.

HOWEVER; THE CASE MAY SEEM, IT IS MOST PREVALENT THAT GOD GIVES UNTO US A WILDERNESS EXPERIENCE AND HE LEADS US THE BEST WAY,NEVERTHELESS; WE CAN PROLONG OUR JOURNEY WITH OUR CHRISTIAN PITY PARTIES.

THE CHRISTIAN LOOKING FOR SYMPATHY, WHEN IN ESSENCE, IF THAT WERE WHAT HE HAD GOTTEN HE WOULD HAVE RECEIVED HIS REWARD AND A MINIMAL REWARD IT WOULD BE ACCORDING TO THE RICHES AND GLORY THAT GOD HAS IN STORE FOR THE CHRISTIAN.

THE WILDERNESS EXPERIENCE IS A MOST DIFFICULRT EXPERIENCE, AN ACT OF FAITH BY WHICH WE ALL MUST HAVE, AN ACT OF PATIENCE BY WHICH WE ALL MUST SUSTAIN, IT NEED BE THAT THE CHRISTIAN BE FIT TO FIGHT THIS WAR THAT THEY MAY BE ABLE TO ACQUIRE THEIR CANAAN.

TODAY YOU MAY WELL BE OUT IN YOUR WILDERNESS BUT YOU SHOULD NO THAT GOD DOES NOT HAVE YOU THERE FOR A REASONABLE PURPOSE. GOD PROPORTIONS THE TRIALS OF HIS PEOPLE TO THE BENEFIT OF THEIR STRENGTH.

1CORINTHIANS 10:13 SAYS;

THERE HATH NO TEMPTATION TAKEN YOU BUT SUCH AS IS COMMON TO MAN: BUT GOD IS FAITHFUL WHO WILL NOT SUFFER YOU TO BE TEMPTED ABOVE THAT THAT YE ARE ABLE BUT WILL WITH TEMPTATION ALSO MAKE A WAY TO ESCAPE THAT YE MAY BE ABLE TO BEAR IT.

IT SHOULD BE A GREAT ENCOURAGEMENT TO OUR FAITH THAT GOD WAS THERE YESTERDAY AND STILL REMAINS WITH US TODAY EVEN TIL THE END OF THE EARTH WILL HE PROVIDE US WITH A PILLAR OF A CLOUD , TI LEAD US AWAY BY DAY AND BY NIGHT IN A PILLAR OF FIRE TO GIVE US LIGHT WHICH WAS HERE FROM THE FOUNDATION OF THE EARTH, THAT BEING JESUS WHOM GOD GAVE AS A RANSOM.

IT IS SO SAID IN JOHN 8:12

THEN JESUS SAID AGAIN UNTO THEM SAYING, "I AM THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD: HE THAT FOLLOWETH ME SHALL NOT WALK IN DARKNESS BUT SHALL HAVE THE LIGHT OF LIFE.

OUT IN THE WILDERNESS

THERE ARE PEOPLE OTHER THAN CHRISTIANS THAT ARE ENCAMPED OUT IN THE WILDERNESS, SOME ARE SINNERS WITH MANY GROANS AND PAINS OF THIS SIN SICK WORLD,NEVERTHELESS, THEY HAVE THE SAME EXPECTATION OF REACHING THE END OF THEIR JOURNEY AND ARRIVING IN THEIR CANAAN AND OUT OF THE WILDERNESS THAT THEY MAY TOO FIND DELIVERENCE.

MANY LIKE THE CHRISTIAN HAVE THEIR OWN PERSONAL WILDERNESS EXPERIENCES.

1) SOME WITH ALCOHOL

2) SOME WITH DRUGS

3) SEXUAL IMMORALITY

4) LYING

5) COVETEOUSNESS

OUT IN THE WILDERNESS

IS A EXPERIENCE LIKE NO OTHER AND YOUR FAITH IN GOD WILL DETERMINE YOUR DELIVERENCE OR DESTINY.
