Victory in the Wilderness

Just reading Bevere's Victory in the Wilderness.
I'm trying to read it slowly and digest it. It's a timely book for me.

The wilderness is not a negative time for those who obey the Lord. It's purpose is very positive: to train and prepare us for a new move of the Holy Spirit

Later he writes,

Ah...as long as I will be to believe and have faith in that.

So the wilderness is not God's rejection, but His preparation.

How does this translate to heart knowledge from the brain?

She prayed Prov 4:18 ( The path of the righteous is like the first gleam of dawn, shining ever brighter till the full light of day) over me, for some time, stating that God would lead me, and the path would become brighter and brighter, clearer and clearer. I was to have faith. More faith that God would lead me safely and surely. She also stated the need to seek God even more through prayer for his presence and guidance (guilty. It's been difficult to be disciplined about prayer). She prayed and declared that my work would be the platform for many good things God wanted to do through me. The work and the position I had in my work was important, she...
