SURVIVAL TIP # 6 — FIND NOURISHMENT
Finding a source of food in the wilderness helps the survivor keep energy and focus. As God’s people, we know that along with the Spirit, God’s Word is the essence of human life. This truth is so important, that God specifically led His people into the wilderness to teach it to them so they would discover in the deepest way possible, that trusting and obeying God’s Word is life itself (Deuteronomy 8:2-3).
First, “living” by the Word means feasting on its truth till it becomes our way of thinking. God’s Word must become our mental culture, a way of thinking transformed from the natural to the divine (Romans 12:2).This means we conform our thought patterns to God’s way of thinking as revealed in Scripture. We read, study, meditate, confess, declare, and memorize. We bombard ourselves with God’s Word till it starts to reshape the creases in our brains and talk back to us (Proverbs 6:20-22). Then we’re not just reading the Word, but living by it.
Second, “living” by the Word means obeying the Word. Obedience to God is especially important in the wilderness, because that is the time when God is testing us to see if we will obey. The author of Hebrews cautioned Christian friends going through a spiritual wilderness about disobedience (Hebrews 3:7-11). He warned, “To whom did He swear that they would not enter His rest, but to those who were disobedient? So we see that they were not able to enter because of unbelief” (Hebrews 3:18-19). Thus, He used strong terms to warn His church against disobedience in a spiritual wilderness.

The wilderness is a hard place but it’s crucial for our lives and growth. While a desert season feels terribly wrong, God desires to use the wilderness for your eternal good. To reap its benefits, however, you must understand its nature and purpose.
