The REAL
“Man Behind The Curtain”

“Therefore judge nothing before the time,
until the Lord comes, who will both bring to light
the hidden things of darkness and
reveal the counsels of the hearts.
Then each one's praise will come from God.”


1 Corinthians 4:5

In the Wizard of Oz, the “Man Behind the Curtain” was an impotent but benevolent imposter pretending to have authority. Although Dorothy and her entourage hoped that the wizard would have the power to solve her problem, he did not. Perhaps at one time or another we have all hoped that a 'wizard' of some sort could fix what we are facing. The good news is that there is such a person, but it is not a wizard - it is your Heavenly Father.

Even though it is so hard to have faith when we go through these “Desert Times” of feeling alone, bewildered and not knowing what to do or what will be the outcome, God is The Real Man Behind The Curtain working behind the scenes who is putting all the pieces of the puzzle together that we cannot see. How can this happen? Well like Dorothy you need to come before his throne, seek his face, ask for his help, open your Bible and use the Power of the Word of God. Read and claim his promises out loud like:

“For I know the plans I have for you, saith the Lord.
Plans not to harm but to prosper you,
and to give you a future.”

Jeremiah 29:11

“My eyes look up unto the hills from whence goeth my help.
My help comes from the LORD who made heaven and earth.”

Psalm 121:1-2

Search through the Bible for verses that resonate with your spirit and situation and write them down and speak them out to the Lord. Post scriptures around your house that encourage you and speak only positive affirmations over your life and situation and praise God for all that he is doing and thank Him for it. Do not let the devil deter your faith that God is working and orchestrating something wonderful for you! Remember Romans 8:31 that says “If God is for us, who can be against us?” Hold on to this!

So be patient, pray, stay close to Jesus and He will not fail you. When your answer comes you will then be able to turn your 'desert' into a 'garden' testimony to glorify God and show the great work He is doing in and around us. Your Heavenly Father is the true power “Behind The Curtain.“

God Bless Your Day
