How often do we feel like we are groping in darkness searching for answers? I thank the Lord that He leads us into the light, and exposes our sin that keeps us separated and in darkness.
Scripture says, "Though I dwell in darkness, the Lord is a light for me...because I have sinned against Him...He will bring me out to the light. And I will see His righteousness." (Micah 7:8,9)
Have you noticed that with human perspectives we often get tripped up by our human emotions, fear, unbelief, or better put, sin, that blocks the illumination, and clarity the Lord desires to bring to our lives.
In Revelations 3:19-20 we are told, "Those whom I love I reprove and discipline, be zealous therefore, and repent. Behold, I stand at the door and knock; if anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him, and will dine with him, and he with Me."
When we are in darkness, God doesn't intend that we set up camp. He's waiting for us to hear His voice and respond.
Isaiah 45:3 says, "And I will give you the treasures of darkness and the hidden wealth of secret places." In verse 11 we are told to ask the Lord for clarity and understanding of the things to come.
When we are lacking vision and feel we are groping in darkness there is a treasure to ascertain. isn't that good news? We can mine for treasure in the darkness by:
repenting for what stands in the way of the Lord (fear, unbelief, blindness), which then opens the door for the Lord into our hearts
searching for the hidden treasure in our midst
asking the Lord about what we do not see, or understand
Isn't it a sobering thought that we are in fact accountable for the dark and barren places where we often camp out? Psalm 68:6 reminds us that, "He leads out the prisoners into prosperity, only the rebellious dwell in a parched land."
He leads us out of prison! Isn't that good news? "The Lord hears the needy and does not despise His who are prisoners." (Psalm 69:33) Those who are hardened by pride and unbelief we will remain in a parched land, but we are those who choose to respond in faith!
