FROM WILDERNESS TO DESTINY

[FAITH]

"A voice cries: “In the wilderness prepare the way of the LORD; make straight in the desert a highway for our God. Every valley shall be lifted up, and every mountain and hill be made low; the uneven ground shall become level, and the rough places a plain. And the glory of the LORD shall be revealed...." - Isaiah 40:3-5

 

We each have a wilderness and we each have a promised land. Right now some of us are in the middle of the Jordan; many of us are just a few steps away from the shore on the other side. Then there are some that may just be emerging from the desert with their toes in the water, ready to start the river-crossing process. For those who are at this moment --  that moment can feel like the whole world is crashing in and that the wilderness will never end. It can be hard to see through the desert sand and feel that splash of water that is starting to touch your toes, announcing the coming transition.

THE TIME IS NOW

Your transition is no longer coming at some unknown time in the future; it is already here.  The time is now. Feel the water on your toes and take that first step into the river. Watch the God (who has felt silent and distant to you at the peak of your wilderness) come in with all the "suddenlies" of your Jordan-River crossing and accelerate you into your promised land in a way you never imagined possible.

Things will start happening so fast, and you might wonder if you are prepared for this level of blessing and power. Know that you are ready. God didn't bring you to the Jordan too soon. This is your moment, and the world has been waiting for you to emerge in the fullness of who God created you to be. Don't hold back.

UNDERSTANDING GOD'S PURPOSE FOR YOUR LIFE

The season of hiding in the Church with your Laodicean pals was a season of spiritual indolence.  But now you see the beautiful things He placed inside of you that were yours when you became born again. You were not aware of these things (your identity in Christ) because no one discipled you into a proper understanding. Now you are ready to watch in amazement as the treasures of His Spirit flow out of you.
