Have you ever been in a situation when you are waiting on God and it felt like He wasn’t going to do anything? It’s like, would God really leave you there?
Read Deuteronomy 31:1-6 and journal your thoughts
God’s people are in a bad place, and it’s about to go from bad to worse. They are still in the wilderness waiting to go into the Promise Land, and their great leader, Moses is getting old and proclaims that God has told him that he won’t enter the Promise Land. For the Hebrews, Moses was it. He was their fearless leader who took on the Pharaoh and led them out of Egypt. But not even he will be able to enter into the Promise Land? Will God really leave us here?
At this point, God’s people needed to be reminded that He is still with them. He hadn’t left them. He wasn’t quitting on them. He was still going to lead them into their new home, He was going to go ahead of them and fight for them.
Sometimes we get stuck in those moments when we’re waiting for God and things begin to change, maybe they go from bad to worse. Just like the Hebrews, we need to be reminded that God has not given up on us, He hasn’t left us here to fend for ourselves. Instead He is with us and fights for us.
Today pray that God would give you strength in those moments when you feel like you’re all alone to fight for yourself that He would remind you that He never left.
