NOT LIKE BEFORE
Today's reading: Deuteronomy 10-12

"For the land you are about to enter and occupy is not like the land of Egypt from which you came, where you planted your seed and dug out irrigation ditches with your foot as in a vegetable garden. It is a land of hills and valleys with plenty of rain--a land that the Lord your God cares for. He watches over it day after day throughout the year!" Deuteronomy 11:10-11 NLT

If the Israelites believed they were simply re-locating their troubles, they were wrong!

They were moving out of Egypt and moving up in the world.

We tend to think like that at times.

We believe, according to what satan whispers in our ears, that things will never change. The problems we have today will be the problems we have tomorrow. The trials we are enduring right now will be with us until the end.

God has a different land planned for us, even here.

One we have never experienced.

One we may have never even allowed ourselves to imagine.

Walking in His ways, under His guidance, in His power, following His lead will be a different journey than we've ever taken before!
