During their forty-year journey in the desert after leaving Egypt, the Israelites experienced divine love and providence.
God reminds them:
« During the forty years that I led you through the wilderness, your clothes did not wear out, nor did the sandals on your feet. »(Deuteronomy 29:5)
If God was able to take care of the Israelites in such difficult conditions, He can also take care of those who trust Him today and especially those who agreed to become his children by believing in Jesus Christ.
We should then understand that our survival and well-being depend entirely on God and not on our own efforts or resources.
For those facing trials or times of difficulty today, this verse offers assurance that God is present and active, even in the driest times of our lives.
PRAYER:
Lord our God, grant us complete confidence in your love and providence.
It is in the precious name of your son Jesus Christ that we pray, Amen.
Apostle Jean-Claude SINDAYIGAYA
