Lessons From The Wilderness

Andrew Baker | Numbers 10:11-13, Deuteronomy 1:29-32; Isaiah 35:1-2,6-7, 41:18-20, 43:19-20; Psalm 84:5, 107:35-36 — Time and again throughout His ministry, Jesus drew His listeners to recall and learn from Israel’s wilderness season. Why? In the wilderness we see God’s faithful presence in the tension of the barrenness; His greater restorative purpose of which we are a part; and His extraordinary calling that plays out in the ordinary everyday. May we not shy away from the wilderness seasons of our own lives, but lean in to see our faithful God and the work He is accomplishing.
