Wilderness??

What does your prayer in the wilderness look like?  We all have our times in the wilderness... you know those times that it seems that God is no where to be seen.  Spending time in the wilderness does have its purpose... look at Jesus' wilderness experience.  He was tempted but yet overcame the enemy proving that with His strength, we can too.  God will give us victory.

We all have wilderness experiences tailored to fit what God is calling each of us to.  Mine does not look like yours and vice versa.  However all times of being in the wilderness have some similarities...

  • The wilderness can be lonely.
  • It can be a "dry" time spiritually.
  • There are choices.
  • The wilderness bring us closer to God... what doesn't kill us makes us stronger.
  • Even in the wilderness, God is always with us... He will never leave us nor forsake us!
