Let It Rain 2


I don’t know anybody that hasn’t faced some tough droughts in life. “What happens to you is not nearly as important as how you respond to what has happens to you.”  Many STRUGGLE when they face hardships. Some will say, “Life isn’t fair.” “Why did they do me wrong?” “When am I going to get a break?” “No one cares about my hurt and pain.” Somewhere in life, you have to see that God in heaven knows your name, address and the number of hairs on your head. If nobody else in the world knows about your pain and sorrow, God does and that’s what matters most.



 Moses made a terrible mistake with his anger in killing an Egyptian soldier who was beating a Hebrew. Moses ended up running for his life. He ended up in the desert for forty years. Did God forget him? Was he now finished? Would his past mistakes define his future? “Don’t desert your dream in your desert.” "Where you start is not nearly as important as where you finish." Zig Ziglar 


We can all learn from Moses Desert Experience!

God isn’t finished with you when you RUN. He ran 285 miles from Ramses Egypt to Midian. It might have taken him a month to three months or so to make that fearful, dreadful, difficult journey. Anxiety gripped his heart and he thought the only answer for him now was to run. God can still bring some good out of your wrong turns in life. God would work on his inward life in the desert. I have learned that God never will waste anything if you’ll see the good in it.

God isn’t finished with you when you FAIL. Moses could have allowed self-pity for the next season of life, or He could look for the good in his failure. John Maxwell says;”When you fall down, pick up something while you’re down there.” Life is constantly about learning and growing so you can move ahead.  God is trying to take you somewhere if you’ll look for the good.

God isn’t finished with you when you’re DEEP in the DESERT. “The worst thing you can do is to desert God in your desert.” Listen, God knows where you are and He knows how to get you out of your desert experience. But don’t anticipate coming out until God has finished doing His work in your life. One day in the desert watching sheep, God sends fire to a bush. It gets Moses attention and the bush wasn’t consumed. A voice from heaven says, “Moses, take your shoes off, you are standing on Holy Ground.” (Exodus 3:5) God would use him to see Israel delivered from a nation who had held Gods people in bondage for 400 years. God would take his weakness and make him strong.

God isn’t finished with you until He makes Himself Known. God wasn’t finished with the assignment that was on Moses life. God used him to part the Red Sea so Israel could go across on dry ground and then see the enemy destroyed. Never Never quit until God shows Himself STRONG!
