The Wilderness.
So many of us, (and yes I said us), are out of alignment right now; we’re hot and cold in the word of God, we're allowing our flesh to run the show, getting caught up in the way of the World... God is saying that we have been in the wilderness for too long.
How many of you know there is a wilderness season?
There is a wilderness that God allows you to go through so that He can humble and discipline you, recreate and grow you, and that’s the season or time when things look shaky. People may leave our lives. We may feel like we're starting over, and so many other things happen, but for our good.
So He has said, many of us have been there longer than He intended for us to be. If we would just humble ourselves. If we would just get out of our own way. If we would just realize that we are nothing without God. If we would just forget what’s going on in the world, and go deeper in our word, things would look different. Our situations would look different. That temporary pain would feel different. Our life would look different.
I serve a God that loves me, and because you serve the same God that loves you no different, He has been kind enough to send us a word TELLING US to get it together.
It’s time to Return back to Christ.
Jeremiah 24:7
“I will give them a heart to know me, that I am the Lord. They will be my people, and I will be their God, for they will return to me with all their heart”
Wow!
God has given us a heart to know Him, and yet our heart is filled with things that don’t really matter. Everyday issues. Past hurt and trauma. Guilt and shame, and even things that we cause to fall upon ourselves, and then we blame God. ALL of this is in the heart He created to know him.
He wants us to know that He is the Lord of Lords and nothing or nobody is BIGGER than Him. God is sending a call for His people to return.
No more in and out. It's time to Return back to Christ.
