Merry Christmas and Wilderness Encouragement by Lonnie Mackley


I just wanted to wish you all an early Merry Christmas and Happy New Year, and to encourage you that the Lord is still very much with you and He loves you with all of His heart. The children of Israel had to live the same basic day over and over again, year after challenging year, until the day came when they were finally ready to go forward. You have probably lived a similar life where you wonder if you will ever get out of this crazy cycle or not, but rest assured just like they finally went forward so will you with God’s help when He knows that you are truly ready to advance. If you are wondering what you can do to help this process right now, then try pressing deeper into God through praying in the Spirit and just listening for His voice from within as He speaks. If you feel like there has been a ceiling over your prayer-life then ask the Holy Spirit to show you if you have not forgiven someone. Let go of what others did to you, and let go of old sin that has held you back. Walk in love and truth in all you do and keep your robe clean. So take hope dearly beloved of God, and know that the Lord only leads people into the wilderness that He knows that He can lead back out again. You will make it through this; and although the Israelite's had to wait until their year of deliverance came, you have the blessing of knowing that this year can and very well may be your year to cross over!
