In the Old Testament the Hebrew people were headed toward the Promise Land, but they “became very discouraged on the way” (Number 21:4). They had been delivered from slavery in Egypt and seen their GREAT God work miracles, yet they became discouraged. Think about it, the God of all creation was leading them, and they were His chosen people. Nevertheless, they found themselves discouraged over time. In fact, they even came to the point of wanting to go back into slavery and bondage in Egypt. Like the Hebrew people, we all face trials and tests. God uses adversity to refine us for a Greater purpose. If we are going to experience the GREATER things that God has in store, we are going to have to overcome trials and tribulations with the supernatural help of God.
