When we think of “the wilderness” we think of remote, desolate places filled with loneliness and the unknown. In the Bible we see many go through times in the wilderness.As we look at the Bible accounts of people in the wilderness, we see first of all, that although they thought they were all alone, they were in the very presence of God. Next we see that in the wilderness we can find an intimacy with God we can find nowhere else. Finally, we see that when the people came out of the wilderness they emerged with knowledge and power they could receive in no other way.In our day there are many sorts of wildernesses people find themselves in: They may involve relationships, finances, spiritual dilemmas, health, or any other number of situations where you may think that you are all alone, or that maybe God has just forgotten you.You’re not all alone. God is with you. He hasn’t forgotten you.
