There’s a reason for partaking in Christ Suffering and you’ll really know why when you follow him. I’m sharing a video below, because it was sent to me by the Lord for my own sufferings. I know especially with the comment I mentioned she said below that it was from him and her whole message was so on que with what the Lord showed me about our wilderness and what I spoke about last post as well. It was such a good video I had to share for those in the wilderness with Christ. Pay attention to how she talks about feeling your in darkness and confused, empty places or desert. It’s all on purpose like I debated with God so many times. I would say, God I know why, but I don’t understand why and I know your the one in real control even if the devil is allowed for a time. I knew and know who is in control of it all, so I went to the source with my debates as to why we have to suffer like this after putting our whole heart and time into God. That’s another story and some reasons I mention below. FYI, it’s not good to debate with God in the wilderness, but there is more grace in the wilderness bc of how hard it is. Eventually, we will all learn that oh so humbly.
Some of my visions I’ve had with Jesus lately have been more darkness around him, or he has seemed far away and seemed less talking. I even showed a time that it looked like a vision showed Jesus left me. I started thinking it was me or God was against me, even when I felt I was doing everything right. It confused me, but this was a reminder as to why. I knew I was being tested and I recognized that as satan’s plot. I have felt and experienced all these things and God keeps sending me confirmation and encouragement that is so right on que with what I am thinking or what i see. Remember this, God speaks more in the wilderness and then he also has a time of silence too depending on your testing. I think we are all tested differently, bc different things affect us. I hope this encourages someone else who may be confused and in the wilderness to know you did not do anything wrong. If you chose to follow the Lord and align with him, your on the right path still like Job, Joseph, Jeremiah, and Jesus. I kept thinking back to those stories of their suffering and that has helped me also keep going. Aside from also seeing Jesus or hearing him gave me great encouragement that he was the shepherd I had to follow.
Praying for strength and for you to find Jesus more in the wilderness and come out stronger with joy again. I have tears thinking about that, but everything in me knows God will get us through to the other side if we stand by him. I have tears thinking of others in the wilderness. If we keep following him like he tells me. If we focus on him, like he said recently in another vision of him in the wilderness. You wont’ get what you want in the wilderness, you won’t feel God loves you at times, and you will feel alone, attacked, rejected, weak and confused. For some Jobs have failed, others lost family or health and wealth, you will be a nobody and humbled for a time. It may hit you all at once, or in cycles like it does me, but remember do we love God still without all the things we want from this temporary earth? Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. He prepared us for all this with his words in scripture, so don’t think it strange when all kinds of trials come upon you. 1 Peter 4:12-19 …12 Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you: 14 If ye be reproached for the name of Christ, happy are ye; for the spirit of glory and of God resteth upon you: on their part he is evil spoken of, but on your part he is glorified…
God knows what each of us need to survive the wilderness. He gave me beautiful visions and I just know what God is doing and why in every stage. I see things deeper now and even in others. I just don’t always understand it until after it happens, but many times he let me know why or what. Every stage of suffering if your paying attention, God will reveal it to you in some way. You’ll eventually understand God is taking me through a testing of “This”, but idk fully “why” or what he is up too beyond that. The wilderness is meant to teach you to follow and really rely on God despite what you see or feel. If Jesus said he is guiding us and he’ll get us out…we have to trust him and not the voice of satan!
She said: “We’re allowed to be a part of the glory with Christ bc we shared with him in his sufferings.” 1 Peter 4:13 This is what I was trying to say, some of us are tested beyond normal testing for trying to do everything God wants. It will bring out everything in you too and I’m here to say we are all not our best in the wilderness. It is also there to cleanse and humble you if you keep following…. Jesus wants to share his glory with you for it bc we are “partakers of Christ’s Sufferings”…1 Peter 4:13 …
I have to share one more thing….I have always said this and felt it, but didn’t know there was actually a scripture for it until now. I always said it’s better to suffer now with Jesus, then suffer later without him. His yoke is light compared to suffering without him bc we rejected him and I found a scripture to match that. I was amazed, but that is the holy spirit for you. He speaks things to us and then you find the scripture later to match perfectly. (1 Peter Chapter 4)17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God? You really should read all of this chapter if your suffering, it is great encouragement/reminders in your suffering….Enjoy the video….
