I will make rivers flow on barren heights,
and springs within the valleys.
I will turn the desert into pools of water,
and the parched ground into springs. – Isaiah 41:18 (NIV)
Have you ever thought about the fact that the Lord has abundant resources? As the creator of the world, He has written abundance into every part of creation. Think about in a garden when a plant produces fruit or seeds. That one seed that was planted turns into many other plants and seeds. Sometimes it’s hundreds of times more than the one seed planted.
Isn’t that fascinating? Our God has abundant resources in our world. What’s even more exciting is that He makes the barren places fruitful.
Today’s Truth: God makes barren places fruitful.
Now most likely you don’t have a desert in your backyard that you need turned into a pool of water. However, there are probably areas in your life that feel like parched ground. Maybe you could use more godly friendships. Perhaps you need encouragement. Whatever your need is, the creator god is there with His abundant resources to help you out.
So go to Him today. Ask for His help in the areas in your life that feel dry and lacking. Know that He is a God of abundance, and trust that He will change those dry places into pools of water.
