We often hear about the love of God, and surely we should. But to the exclusion of God’s anger? I think not. How easy it is to forget that He is holy. How seldom we are taught about the anger of God, about how zealous He is for the purity of His people. (See Isaiah 13:9-13)

Learn a major lesson from the story of Noah: No on earth deserves your worship. Try to remember that every person on earth is still a depraved human being. Some are being used by God in powerful ways, but in no way are they free from the disease. Example: Noah...a good man who distinguished himself in bad times...but was still imperfect. (See Genesis 9:20-22)

Before we get all enamored with our high-and-mighty importance, it’s a good idea to take a backward glance at the pit from which Jesus Christ lifted us up. And let’s not just think about it; let’s admit it. It has a way of keeping us all on the same level – undeserving recipients of His amazing grace. (See Daniel 4:37)

The Lord uses our "desert" experiences to peel away our masks so that we may discover who we really are. With our strengths and weaknesses vividly exposed, we are more prepared to stand humbly before God than we otherwise would. It is at this stage of nakedness that the Lord performs some of His best refining work in our lives. (See Exodus 2:21-22)
