Awestruck: 30 Days of Wonder in the Bibleಮಾದರಿ

God didn't just rescue His people from Egypt—He stayed with them, guiding their every step.

A pillar of cloud by day. A pillar of fire by night. Tangible signs of His presence, lighting the way through a wilderness that could have swallowed them whole.

Picture what that must have looked like. An entire nation following a supernatural GPS. When the cloud moved, they moved. When it stopped, they stopped. God didn’t give them a map and send them on their way. He personally led them, step by step, day by day.

Here's the wonder: God doesn’t just provide light. He is light.

• In Genesis, light appeared at His word before the sun was ever created.
• In Revelation, we're told the sun and moon won't be needed anymore, because His glory will be the light, and the Lamb will be its lamp.

From the first page to the last, Scripture declares the same truth: wherever God is, light is.

When you feel darkness closing in:

• When anxiety whispers falsehoods in the middle of the night.
• When confusion clouds your next steps.
• When loneliness makes everything feel uncertain.

Remember this: God's light doesn't flicker or fade. He doesn't just guide; He reveals. He comforts. He drives away fear. God hasn't left you to stumble through your wilderness alone.

And every time you open your Bible or turn to Him in prayer, you're stepping into His light—the presence of the God who leads, warms, and illuminates your path. You don't have to navigate life's wilderness alone. The same God who lit the way for Israel is lighting the way for you.

Reflect:

How does seeing God Himself as light stir your awe of Him?

Tomorrow we’ll hear God’s unshakable declaration: His glory will fill the earth.
