Have you ever thought that your journey ends there and there??? Well I would say that I am not the only one who have that very same thought. Your circle of life goes through disappointments, discouragements, imperfections, blemishes, frustration, uncertainty, hardship, affliction and whatever craps til a point of time you start to think " Hey, I am useless. I will never be able to stand up. God don't love me. He loves others more than me. And that's why I always remained in the same spot and did not buldge.!!" Hmm... Well this time of hopelessness is the TIME for the PURPOSE of GOD for every life to be made manifest!!! And hows that??
As you can see, GOLD seems to be something very precious. But in order to become precious and priceless, we failed to realize that it requires to go through a REFINING process, which definitely to be an unpleasant one. A saying goes " There is no Change without a Challenge." The stages of changes is the one all of us strive to avoid!! Well who would love suffering???? This stage will be a tough one for both you and me. That is what I am going through this stages rite now...There goes my holiday..Not of pleasure and leisure..But of suffering and discipline. Before this, I would retaliate and would take things lightly. During this process, if I still take things to lightly, slumbering, idling around...the END of the road comes. Saying is definitely easy, but when it comes to practicality, UH-UH(shake head)!!! Its time to stand up and get out of the comfort zone and our sense of security. Another saying goes "It is a time of DESERTION for DECISION to make DISTINCTION or go for DESTRUCTION!!!". In the wilderness, you will tend to be lonely, where the world seems to leave you, hopelessness counts in, feeling miserable n etc. But one thing is for sure, GOD WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU NOR FORSAKE YOU..and that PROMISE counts when you are stuck in the wilderness!!!
Wilderness is a place where you have to confront the devil. It is a place of confrontation before CONFIRMATION!! It is a place that you are left alone to make a decision: to choose to win or be defeated, to succeed or fail! The wilderness is a place of self-determination( plus God's help) where you are left to make personal decision whether to stand or fall!! Even Jesus have to go through the wilderness to be proved and approved.
Dun get scared!!
So people, lighten up, the wilderness is God's plan for you to succeed, not to fail. Friends, look at a bigger picture. Without this experience, you will never know who you are in the Lord.
Plus, the wilderness is ordained and well-planned by God to humiliate the devil. It is a battle where you have to stand and fight. At the end you will be laughing at the devil HAHAHA!! NANANANANAH :)
REMEMBER!!! In order to defeat the devil during your wilderness days, is to continually feed on the WORD of GOD. Meditate on, abide with, and do the WORD of GOD!!! That guarantees your VICTORY!!!
