This morning, I dug into the book of Numbers. After listening to The Hebrew Bible on Audible, I turned to The Bible Project for their overview of the book. What stood out to me was this: Godâs faithfulness gave the Israelites exactly what they asked for. Their 40 years in the wilderness? Yes, it was a consequence of their distrustâbut it was also their choice. They resisted His promises, and God, in His faithfulness, honored their decision. But He didnât waste those years. God used the wilderness to shape them, preparing them for victory in the Promised Land. He turned their resistance into a season of preparation. Isnât it amazing how God works through our delays and detours? What about you? Has there been a time when God redeemed a season of waiting or resistance in your life? Letâs reflect togetherâdrop your thoughts below or tag someone whoâs experienced Godâs redemptive work.
