When God Shows Up: Real Stories of FaithSample

When Moses stood before God at the burning bush, he was filled with doubt. He questioned his ability to lead and feared what lay ahead. God did not hand Moses a detailed plan or instant success. Instead, He gave him a promise in Exodus 3:12, NLT: “I will be with you.” That assurance was enough to carry Moses through years in the desert and countless challenges along the way.

This week, you’ve read and heard testimonies of individuals who faced their own wilderness seasons. Like Moses, they wondered if they had a future. Yet God’s promise proved true in their lives. Through mentors, friendships, and the steady love of Jesus, He met them in the desert and gave them hope.

Your story may not look like theirs, but we all walk through deserts. Times when life feels dry and our questions outweigh our answers. In those moments, God’s promise to Moses is His promise to you: “I will be with you.” Carry that truth with you today, and do not keep it to yourself. Share one of the testimonies you’ve read with someone who needs encouragement. God may use their story to remind another weary traveler that they are not alone in the desert.

Reflect. Whose story from this week stood out to you the most, and how can you use that story to encourage someone else who may feel forgotten or alone?
