"Desert Days" devotional has now been posted!

Desert Days

“In the desert prepare the way for the Lord; make straight in the wilderness a highway for our God.  Every valley shall be raised up, every mountain and hill made low; the rough ground shall become level, the rugged places a plain.  And the glory of the Lord will be revealed, and all mankind together will see it.  For the mouth of the Lord has spoken.” Isaiah 40:3-5

Sometimes in life we go through different experiences or what I like to call environments, which are pretty much seasons of life.  One environment is the desert wilderness place, which is a place of dryness, fruitlessness, parchedness; a time when it seems like nothing’s happening and/or that God is not moving or working your behalf.  It’s those really difficult times when you’re waiting desperately for something to happen…but there seems to be so many different obstacles and hindrances in the way preventing a breakthrough and you’re quickly losing hope.   

In these times we must “prepare the way and make straight in the wilderness a highway for God”, so that He can move, work and operate in our lives.  In the midst of difficult circumstances and trials we must make a way to watch God work.  We must expect for God to move and work on our behalf despite how things look and feel.  The valleys that we find ourselves in, He will raise it up.  The mountains and hills that are in the way blocking your vision and hindering your progress will be made low.  Those rough grounds that do not make it easy to navigate through so you can get where you need to quickly will become level.  The rugged places that do not allow you to see things the way God wants you to, will become plains so you can focus and understand what God is showing you during this time.  God’s glory will be revealed in your life and all will see it.   

To create the environment for God to operate and move during those dry, rough seasons in your life, keep your focus and attention on Him.  Play worship and praise songs in your car and if possible keep it on inside your home.  Set aside a designated time each day to meet with Him, talk to Him (about Everything!), read His Word, and to hear from Him.   Then develop an expectant attitude and behavior; expect and wait each day for Him to do the things He says He will do.  He will begin to speak to you and shift things around and literally move mountains in your life.
