SURVIVAL TIP # 7 — SUMMERIZING SURVIVAL
The wilderness is an untamed place, a most difficult season for the human soul, but it can become the source of the greatest spiritual reward. As we have seen in the Bible, God establishes His greatest works in the wilderness. In His wisdom, life comes out of death, glory out of suffering, streams out of the desert. The desert strips us of self-sufficiency, teaches us to rely totally on God, and molds us into the image of His Son.
Thus, if you’re passing through a spiritual desert, don’t waste it by crumbling or complaining; recognize God’s purpose for it and don’t quit till you make it through! Let’s briefly summarize the six survival tips we covered:
- Don’t panic – Refuse natural fear and embrace God’s love for you.
- Assess your situation – Take stock of the resources God provided for your journey, and use them.
- Find shelter – Know that God is present to you now more than ever, and hide yourself in Him.
- Build a fire – Set yourself ablaze with passionate worship for protection and purification.
- Drink water – Keep yourself spiritually hydrated by praying at all times in the Spirit.
- Find nourishment – Feast on God’s Word through intense meditation, as well as radical faith and obedience.
When we adopt these words of wisdom for surviving hard times, we create a path for His involvement as we trust Him and walk in His ways. So take courage. Keep moving forward. The pain of the wilderness may be great, but greater still is its significance for your life. The Promised Land awaits you…
