When it just doesn’t make any sense!

“Where your fathers tested Me, tried Me,
And saw My works forty years.” Hebrews 3:9

Why did most of God’s chosen people die in the desert? God made a promise to the Israelites just like He has made to you.

The Israelites did not believe God and turned to worshipping other gods. They fell into unbelief and doubt and complained about the lack of God to provide for their needs.

They did not want God’s timetable. They wanted to see God work quickly and lacked the patience and the faith to wait upon God.

Most of the Israelites died in the desert and never entered the Promised Land. God looked down on them and judged their actions. They fell short of God’s standards and were punished for their actions.

This is the same God who is looking down on you and judging your heart. He is a God of retribution and He blesses and curses.

God’s priority in your life is your faith and obedience to Him. It is never about the circumstances in your life. It is maintaining an unwavering faith in God and obeying the voice of God.

When God calls you to a specific action, you will not be able to see the end game or understand why you are on a course with God that does not make any sense.

If you are at this point, you are in the perfect will of God and His plan makes total sense to Him. The goodness of God is waiting for you at the end of your trip!
