Do not become discouraged, when you have not seen the answers to your difficulties that you have anticipated. The darkest part of the night occurs just before dawn. God promises that he will never leave or forsake us. He gives us promises and asks that we trust him to see them fulfilled. Breakthrough and breakout are on your near horizon, as you keep believing him. He sustains you, while you rest, rely and trust him.
Your time of preparation, in the wilderness, teaches you to trust in God alone. His presence and favor go with you. Is the journey easy? No. Tests and trials are not fun but they build spiritual muscles. He is preparing you for the destiny, for which he created you. You are acquiring character, patience, hope, faith and love that will anchor you, when suddenly God’s promises manifest in your life.
