From Deep Wells to Dead Streams

What's goodie beautiful people and others ? How are y'all doing today? I hope you're doing fabulous and that you found a reason to give God some praise. Me, I'm doing fabulous. You know pressure makes us oily. So I'm shining just a bit if I do say so myself. 😆 All praises to the most high God.

Listen, there are some things going on in this earth and I don't want us to lose focus or miss the promises that God has for us. So in this blog I want to encourage us to stay the course despite the opposition. We got this and there isn't an enemy that can make us believe different. We know who we serve. We know that ain't nobody messing with our God ‼️

As I was studying the word on a different topic I was diving down the rabbit hole of the word and received this message and reminder. In this time it is dangerous for us to believe that just because we are children of God and may be prospering that we are free from God's wrath. Free from death and the grave. Or that God won't give and takeaway. (Hos13:14-15)

Joseph was a righteous servant. A righteous man. Whom God blessed with precious water from deep wells and dew from the sky. Monthly ripened fruit and a rich harvest from ancient hills. The best the land could produce and a princely crown (Deu 33:13-16). His blessings were expansive (Psalms 80:10). Yet, despite how much they prospered over the other tribes; God's punishment for them turning against him was to wipe them out and dry up their streams of water (Hos 13:15).

Their fate was to be destroyed in war. Because of their sins and turning against God Samaria was destroyed (Hos 13:16).

God is calling us to turn back to him! (Hos 14:1)

He wants us to remember that he was there for our people in the wilderness in Egypt and he will be there for us as well. The Israelites never received the promise because during their wilderness they complained more than they praised. They complained about Moses and they complained about God. That doesn't have to be our final verdict! We can praise God, build and STILL overcome this current time in the world. We are qualified to endure until the end.

Don't forget the God that you serve. Don't forget to tell him thank you even in the midst of the trials. We cry out to God in prayer. We build despite the opposition. We fight when necessary. Hold the line! Our praise confuses the enemy.

Love y'all later. Stay prayed up. Stay vigilant. We got this! And God has US!

Don't you forget it.
