every word that proceeds from the mouth of God. So when God puts you in the wilderness, it is where he gives you impartation through Rama for you to know his will, his purpose for your life. The issue is some are in the wilderness, but they want to tell God how their future should be. Yet the wilderness is where you are instructed on what you are becoming and what you will do.

The Lord sent me to tell you. He's about to give you instructions. He's about to give you direction.

He's about to show you exactly what you need to do. If you will open your ears to him

and say, "Father, I am ready to listen."

It's a divine

opportunity.

It's a divine appointment to be refined.

Stop rejecting the process.

The anointing is not the absence of suffering.

The hand of God in your life is not the absence of suffering. The suffering now has a purpose to refine you. It is no longer working for your destruction. It is working for your good. But if your eyes are not opened to recognize what God is doing, you will miss your appointment and you walk out of your appointment.

Jesus could leave the wilderness anytime he wanted. He was not confined to the wilderness.

The children of Israel remained in the wilderness

because they were following Moses

and they follow they were following the cloud. They could have left and gone to any other country at any moment they wanted. Their fear of bondage like they had in Egypt is what made them stick with Moses. But they didn't stick to Moses because they wanted to.

You can stick in the wilderness for the wrong reasons.

You know, some people addicted to suffering. Some people want to suffer because they think it is a sign of God moving in their life. Everybody just hates me. Everybody's just picking on me. Everybody just rejects me. You know, we prophetic people are rejected. Ah,

the sign of God's hand upon you is your ability to change lives,

to improve people's lives.

Not to complain. Those who are in the process don't complain. They embrace the process. You meet them AND YOU SAY, "HOW are you doing? I am blessed and highly flavored." You ask them again, "Are you sure you're okay?" They will say, "No, no, no, no. Everything is perfect."

They don't see their suffering as a disadvantage.

They see it as an advantage.
