Are you in a wilderness season? Lean in, listen, and lock in to what God is teaching you.

In this episode of 2 Minute Bible Study for Women On the Go, Katina Shoni Freeman begins with Luke 1:80 and reflects on John the Baptist, Jesus, and Israel in the wilderness. Through their stories, she teaches three things the wilderness can do for you: prepare you for purpose, strengthen you in your identity, and protect you.

Don’t despise the wilderness. Lean in, lock in, and listen to the voice of God.

Reflection: What lesson is God asking you to learn in this season?

Scripture references:

Luke 1:80 — John’s growth before his public appearance

Luke 3:2–6 — A voice in the wilderness preparing the way

Luke 4:1–13 — Jesus’ temptation in the wilderness

Galatians 1:15–18 — Paul’s calling and his journey through Arabia and Damascus

Exodus 13:17–18 — God protects Israel by leading them away from a route where war could make them turn back

Word-study note:

ἔρημος — érēmos (Strong’s G2048): wilderness, desert, or solitary place. This is a Greek word; the form in Luke 1:80 is ἐρήμοις (erēmois).
