Separation is a Sign of Preparation
God is preparing and positioning you to discover something about Himself that He cannot reveal to you while you are surrounded by others. He needs to separate you from the people and things that you have placed in positions that belong to Him. They would only distract you from hearing and seeing the things He wants to show you. During this time of separation and seclusion, we also discover things about ourselves that we otherwise would have never known. There is no one to impress or save face with when we are alone. God has the ability to show us who we really are so that He can begin the process of molding us into who He's called us to be. God will remove our support and separate us from the things that we've become familiar in order that He might reveal to us something much greater-Himself.
In Deuteronomy 8:2-3, we read that God purposefully lead His people into the wilderness for the purpose of proving Himself to them. God used this place of isolation to develop their confidence in Him as their God. They did not labor for their living, but simply believed God for their living. There was no Walmart in the wilderness; therefore they had to trust God for their food, clothing and care while having no money to buy anything with. God proved to them that He was their one and only "true source". They would have never received this revelation, without this time of separation and sanctification with God.
The Lord Jesus Christ will never leave you or forsake you but He will mold you and shape you and make you by whatever means that he see fit into a vessel worthy of honor and His Grace if you don’t resist In the transformation and transition process that Christ will send you through.
