Streams in the Wasteland

Today as I was driving to work this phrase came to me.” I am making everything new.”

I reflected and pause and remembered the goodness of God upon me.But at the same time,I feel so tired inside in my spirit.

Are you at times tired of the same prayer requests all the time? You feel the journey has been long and you have seeked counsel and wisdom many around you and you feel nothing is working.

You have asked for help and nothing worked out.Then suddenly you realise the only power needed resides within you.The Holy Spirit himself.

Isaiah 43 : 19 -20

See, I am doing a new thing!
Now it springs up; do you not perceive it?
I am making a way in the wilderness
and streams in the wasteland.

A week ago,my church pastor reminded me all truth resides in the Word of God.As I was writing this note today,I asked the Lord,”’Abba,show me who You are in my life.I want to be obedient to continue doing what you told me to do.Reveal to me the realities of the Kingdom and the Word of God.”

As I reflected on this verse today,the Holy Spirit reminded me,”He is doing a new thing.He is not letting me go.”

This verse in Isaiah spoke to me. He is making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.There is a battle within me that I feel am fighting against all the time and I asked the Lord,” Help me Lord.Guide me through.”

The response I got is,” I have already prepared a way for you and streams in the wasteland.

• The “Wasteland”: Represents a season of struggle, spiritual dryness, burnout, grief, or feeling completely stuck.
• The “Streams”: Symbolizes the sudden, unexpected outpouring of God’s grace, renewal, and provision. Just as a rushing river transforms a dry, cracked desert into life, God brings revival and comfort to seemingly hopeless situation.

It is the Lord himself who brings the streams in the wasteland. Can you picture that desert? Can you feel that dryness? Most of us have at least one area in our lives that feels like a wasteland.

I reflected on this and I decided from today henceforth I am going to memorise this verse and declare this verse upon my life and watch myself and thank God for the streams He has already been giving and will continue giving.

I recalled a few months ago,my regional leader released a Word into my life.”God is going to give you a suprise.”I reflected on the Word and realise God has a plan.His plan is to give me a future and hope.I refuse to hustle and decided to just look upon God and let God himself take care of me.

”Friends,are you going through a season in your life.?The good news I would like to share to my beloved readers is,there are streams in your wasteland today.That same mess that you are going through will be a message to the world.”

”I declare miracles over miracles,breakthrough over breakthroughs in your life today,in Jesus name I pray.” Amen

”Abba,use this note to transform lives out there.Let them have an encounter with you.Let this not just be a note,but a transformative note that speaks blessing into their life.”Amen

I thank you Lord for you are a Wonder Working God.-R.J.JOHN
