Good Morning Quote ~10.03.19~

Be Wary ~

The wilderness can be,
a frightening place
unless we have a sufficient
supply of God’s grace.

For in the wilderness,
we will be tested
and just like Jesus
we too, will be tempted.

When we’re in a place,
we don’t want to be
when alone with danger
we need to get on our knees.

We need to draw near,
to God in prayer
for He knows our adversary
is with us out there.

The wilderness can be,
lonely and scary
and to satan’s tricks
we must be wary!

~~~~~~~~

Mark 1:13

” And he was there
in the wilderness
forty days,
tempted of Satan;

When In The Wilderness ~

It gets lonely,
in the wilderness
it feels lifeless
cold and treacherous.

But, when God takes us,
into the wilderness
He wants us with Him
to get down to business.

It’s easy to get lost,
in the wilderness
it can be discouraging
in the land of bitterness.

But, when we trust God,
in the wilderness
He’ll walk us through
our insecureness.

It can be very dangerous,
in the wilderness
it can be desolate
in the land of hopelessness.

But, when God has us,
in the wilderness . . .
it’s because He wants
to heal our stubbornness!

Isaiah 43:19

“Behold, I will do a new thing;
now it shall spring forth;
shall ye not know it? I will
even make a way in the wilderness,
and rivers in the desert.”

Be Not Afraid ~

When in the wilderness,
be brave and be daring
no matter the burden
or load you’re carrying.

For, God is with you,
wherever you go
He promises always
the right way to show.

He will be the cloud,
to follow in the day
His very presence
will lead you the way.

He will be your pillar,
in the dead of night
He will shine on you
His true guiding light.

When in the wilderness,
don’t you be dismayed . . .
God is always with you
so be not, ever afraid!

Joshua 1:9

“Have not I commanded thee?
Be strong and of a good courage;
be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed:
for the Lord thy God is with thee
whithersoever thou goest.”

Through it All ~

Through the mountain,
God led me
through the hardships
He supplied me.

Through the darkness,
God directed me
through the uncertainties
He never left me.

Though the high waters,
God brought me
through the sorrow
He comforted me.

Through the storms,
God protected me
through the heartache
He cared for me.

Through the desert,
God guided me
through the loneliness
He loved me.

Through the valley,
God carried me
through the grief
He shouldered me.

Through the wilderness,
God was with me
through all of my doubts . . .
He waited for me!

Psalm 136:16
King James Version

“To him which led his people
through the wilderness:
for his mercy endureth for ever.”
