Navigating Silent SeasonsSample

Have you ever felt as though God has forgotten you and isn’t speaking to you? You pray, worship, and attend church, feeling like you’re doing all the right things, yet it seems as if God is ghosting you. In the ebbs and flows of life, I believe these moments, when, as Pastor Ryan Dozier of Remnant Faith Center describes, God is Jehovah Silent, are essential for our spiritual growth. It’s possible that during these times, God isn’t ghosting you; instead, He’s growing you.

Remember that God eagerly awaits your attention. The Bible teaches us that if we draw near to Him, He will draw near to us (James 4:8). It also reminds us that His sheep recognize His voice. As you continue to seek Him, His voice will become increasingly familiar.

Through this Bible plan, we will explore some potential reasons why it may feel like God is silent and how to hear Him more clearly. My goal is to help you navigate a “silent season” with intention. I believe that over the next few days, you will be better positioned to hear from God. As we identify what may be hindering your ability to listen, prepare your heart, mind, and spirit to receive what the Lord wants to communicate to you.

Prayer: Lord, help me hear your voice like never before. I believe you want to speak to me, and I trust that you will as I seek you. Thank you in advance for what you’re about to share with me. In Jesus’ name, amen.
