God will meet you in your wilderness

Post by kpowell »

BIBLE TEXTS
Psalm 23
Hebrews 13:8
John 8:12
James 1:12- 18

Don't be distracted by the side shows around you. Keep your eyes on Christ Jesus!!
God will meet you in your wilderness like He did for Hagar
 Hagar was a prominent Biblical figure in the Old Testament and the handmaid of Abraham's wife, Sarah. As the story goes, Sarah was barren, so Hagar was tasked with bearing a son by Abraham.

What happened to Hagar?
Hagar became pregnant, and tension arose between the two women. Sarai complained to Abram, and treated Hagar harshly after Abram's advice that it was within her rights to do so, and Hagar ran away. Hagar fled into the desert on her way to Shur.
He will open up wells in your wilderness

Genesis 21:19
"Then God opened her eyes ...and she saw a well of water "

She saw no way out...but God shows up...he does not take her out of wilderness but meets her in the wilderness

God is with us
Be encouraged
GOD SEES YOU!
Even when you are unprepared for the type of challenge you will face, God see the future and will be with you on your journey through your wilderness experience!

Just like Hagar and Ishmael who departed from Abrahams life
Be prepared to face the journey with Christ
Put your trust in Christ as your guide

Turn your eye upon Jesus, look full in his wonderful face, and the things of this earth
Rely not in your own strength BUT in the strength given to us through Christ Jesus
Do not walk in darkness
it is treacherous
Christ is the light of the world

Yes, life is sometimes difficult, its an uphill battle
Along the way Satan sets obstacles in our way to make it harder for us, to discourage us
But God our Heavenly Father see us, equips us and comes down to stand with us, to get us through our storm.
