I can say with full conviction, from living the hardest trials, "God will make a way, where there seems to be no way."
Don Moen wrote "God Will Make A Way" after his young nephew died in a car accident, seeking comfort for his grieving family and himself.
The lyrics came to Moen while reading Isaiah 43:19 on a plane to the funeral. He planned to sing it there, but sang a different requested song instead.
"Behold, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs forth; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland." Isaiah 43 19
It signifies God's promise to do something new and transformative, creating a path and provision where there was once desolation, urging people to look for something new and not dwell on the past.
Initially a private message for the family, Moen later shared the song publicly, realizing its wider resonance. Two years later, Moen felt led to sing "God Will Make A Way" publicly for the first time at a small church in Dothan, Alabama.
Moen gave the grieving family a recording of the song, knowing they'd need comfort after everyone left.
"Now it springs forth; do you not perceive it?":
This encourages people to be aware of the newness and not miss the signs of God's work.
"I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.":
This illustrates God's ability to transform barren places into places of life and abundance, offering hope and provision.
The verses preceding 43:19 (43:18) encourages people to forget the past and look forward to the new things God is doing.
The verse is a message of hope and encouragement, reminding people that God is capable of creating something new and beautiful even in the most difficult circumstances.
The verse can be applied to personal lives, encouraging people to let go of the past, trust in God's ability to create something new, and to be open to the possibilities that God is preparing.
Listen to this beautiful song of hope and comfort. God will help you too, when you think all has been lost. Never underestimate the power and love of God. Never give up. Nothing is impossible with God.
