Sometimes God’s silence is to help prune things in us and make us whole. How we react when he is silent says a lot about where we are with him.

What I learned about God on the other end of my silent season was that he drops little signs of hope during that journey. HE doesn't just leave you on silent, but every now and again like a GREAT customer service rep, he will get back on the line and give you a little spark of acknowledgement so that you know he's still there. I've learned this as he would just drop little signs of I'm still here in my spirit. The signs are nothing huge, just, snippets of "hey" and then when I came out of it he then showed me this is what I meant all along.

THIS!! God has dropped signs or winks to let me know I am on the right path as I wait. It’s been hard to wait to hear from Him but those signs have been invaluable in helping me to focus on the prize and relax and fully trust Him. Still going through my faith season but I know something big will come out of this.

Just yesterday, I was crying because I am just so tired of the spiritual warfare , I have been asking for God's direction because He promised to instruct, teach and guide me with His eye, but until now He has not answered. I won't lie it is painful and discouraging. And I know I did not come across this video for no reason . Thank you so much . I pray that God gives me the strength and faith to believe that He will answer 🙏 in His perfect timing.

I was in that exact situation for about 3 months. Which doesn't seem long looking at it now but as an unemployed college student with debt, I was freaking out on how to pay for loans and just needing to do something. God will provide, I was rejected from so many jobs, despite having job experience, and I know it was God's protection and helping hand. Sometimes His rejection is a form of protection and peace. The job I have now is hard, but it's disciplining me in a way that I needed. It's the job God wanted me to have. You got this!

I’ve been feeling like Job lately, “Though He slay me, yet will I trust in Him” Now, that is Faith!!! It’s not easy whatsoever but with God We Will Make It🙌🏽

Definitely feel this is my silent season. Not only is God being silent but he wants me to be silent as well. Cut off the constant chatter and all the many voices and get still. Be comfortable with silence, get confident in the stillness so I'll know and trust my own thoughts which are His thoughts and not keep looking for outside understanding, instructions and information . Everything is already within me 🙇🏽‍♀️

It is so hard!! And I can’t say this enough. I recall the many recent nights where I’m begging God to give me a Word, direction or some kind of guidance on my situations. But I can say nightly, when I fall asleep I am able to rest. When I wake up in the morning, it’s reminding me to call out to God, pray then rest in Him because He’s there and hears me. I am grateful for the rest He gives me because I know that’s a struggle for many people. Even though I get frustrated at times, I love and trust God and pray He will continue to be with me in all my situations!

I just got out of my season of waiting and silence. It has been a long 8 months but the Lord made His move in His perfect time. I am here to share my testimony. I have been waiting for a job since Dec. 2022 but I've heard nothing from my applications. Actively choosing to trust God and keeping the faith through the silence got difficult especially towards the end, because the anxiety, fear, and doubt from the enemy almost got the best of me and ALMOST got me to try new age manifestations and crystals and whatnot. But God came through. He said it is time. And His will be done. Keep the faith.

This video was so on time! I am currently going through my own silent season where I feel I can't hear God's voice. I have been struggling with being alright with where I am now in preparing for the next season of my life (however that looks) as well as hearing His voice and understanding the assignment He has for my life. The truth is I don't know and that's all I've been feeling it has been challenging, but I still am always intentional about my time with the Lord, because I know that He will never fail and will never stop loving me and I just want to be His obedient child actively seeking Him and telling people about Jesus. I just don't know where to start and it leaves me to question my own self and whether I am who God is calling me to be.

Keep looking, expecting and be ready to welcome his return and to love on him the way the Father welcomes and loves on us everyday!

Let me hear of your unfailing love each morning, for I am trusting you. Show me where to walk, for I give myself to you. Rescue me from my enemies, Lord; I run to you to hide me. Teach me to do your will, for you are my God. May your gracious Spirit lead me forward on a firm footing. For the glory of your name, O Lord, preserve my life. Because of your faithfulness, bring me out of this distress. In your unfailing love, silence all my enemies and destroy all my foes, for I am your servant.” ‭‭

Lol right on time. My love life is literally the ghost town with the tumbleweed blowing through. I try to distract myself with work, school, attending various events but loneliness always finds me regardless of whatever achievements I make. I keep asking God what he needs me to do so that I can just meet the right person but nothing. Crickets. No prospects at all. Meanwhile my coworker who is an atheist just got engaged. I identify with Job but also with David who was prone to anxiety. I don't like not having this area of my life figured out.

Keep serving Him and don't compromise or compare yourself to others!

I had a recent “silent” season this past spring/summer and I definitely was feeling “Are you hearing me?” But He was. When He’s “silent”, Ive had to learn patient endurance. After I understood that it’s just to test your faith. In His silence, our faith is tested and proven. And in the end of the battle, God is proven faithful. His faithfulness speaks for Him.

I'm homeless and things just keep getting more and more difficult. I'm currently in my car stranded with no food and only $1 in my account. I have no way to get gas or anything. I've made a gofundme and barely anyone shares it or donates. I'm losing hope but not faith. I cant wait to cross over out of this life. It's been a painful 30 years and I'm ready for change and for all of this to be over.

He could have let him live, but everything would’ve been different. My husband would not have had the quality of life that he had before. He was the type of person that he was always on the go, and he made sure his family was well taken care of. He made sure that I was always happy as well. We loved each other very much! I am still in shock that he is not coming back home. He was a family man, and he was always here for us. I know God was there. We were a 2 income family. I was worried in how am I going to provide for my family. MY HUSBAND IS GONE! On this day I am well taken care of, and I am still able to do for my family. I STILL miss him so. I have read the book of Job, and that did help with my grief.

Me too - you said it to a T. I lost my job and have pressure on me to get another stat. But this has happened to me before and I chose a job that I didn’t fit into well at all. It failed. I couldn’t keep on and had reached my limit long ago. Lost my job. Now I am praying and fasting and leaning on Him to provide me with a new opportunity that fits what I am desiring. Something I am good at and that gives me fulfillment and reignites passion within me to continue to do the job. I want a job that allows me to have my slow morning time with my kids before taking them to school, then my morning time with God, then my exercise time and self-time so I can feel good, rested, refreshed and ready to work without anything else on my mind. My family needs me to work and it isn’t that I’m not willing to work, but just don’t want to rush the process to the point of jumping ahead of the Lord and being in that same position again where I fail and lose my job.

I love that you highlight that sometimes our agony comes from the response of God not being what we would have hoped. And because of this, it feels like silence. But God is Omnipresent, meaning he can't be everywhere and not be with you.

I have no extra money, I can’t save or invest! My entire family is toxic, controlling and manipulative. They’ll use me up then push me away. I have felt stuck for sooooooo long; I have never been married and I feel so alone and abandoned. I m in school in this silent season and it is difficult to get through the day because I do not hear Yah at all. I talk to Yah all the time but I have been slacking in my reading. I just feel like the last ten years of my life have been tragic. Nothing is going right, I need direction but I do not know where to turn. Also, I have severe depression and major anxiety that I suffer from everyday; I take my meds as prescribed but I get no relief and I feel numb! I m NOT a Christian but I am from the 12 Tribes of Israel; Judah specifically. I know that The Most High do not like a coward or for us to be fearful, yet I do not know how to step out in faith or the direction I am supposed to go. I feel stuck, abandoned, resentful, heartbroken all in this silent season.

I was doubting myself and talents hang on to a job that was making me miserable and not appreciating my value to the company. I had a lot of storms and God has brought me thru all of them. I felt his silent and thought He didn't love me anymore because all my sins and wrong doing but I'm here to say he is faithfully and very good to me. Thank you Jesus for everything and God for giving us your only son.

I really needed to hear this message today. I literally have been feeling like God has been ignoring me. Then I have to remind myself that the teacher is always silent when a test is given. I stat suited up and I keep talking to God and reading my word. I'm thankful for my relationship with our Father ❤

Thank you for this word Melody. The Book of Job makes me anxious although I'm getting better at understanding the message of Job. Recently, I have challenged myself to think of God's silence as my inability to hear due to a block or my posture. That said, when I feel this way, I lean in more with reading the Bible seeking, searching, and crying out. Inevitably I hear God through His word. I think this is God's way of teaching me to always stay close even when my fleshly senses tell me He is silent. Thank you for the takeaways. These are good reminders that God is always with us and will not forsake and His timing is perfect. God Bless You!

When I tell you sis, you are right on time . I just finished up reading the book of Job because I was feeling like I was going through a season of silent with God. Thank you for this video and just informed me that God is still listening and HE is always with me. ❤

I was just studying on Job lastnight for the first time. Before I went to sleep I said “Lord I don’t hear you…..right now feels like a huge question mark” Then I see this video 😭😭

Thank you, Melody. I am currently navigating a silent season. I have questioned The Lord so many times, like why me! But one thing I know for sure is His promises are true, that He will never leave me, He is my ever-present help, my refuge, and my fortress even during this silent season. God bless you for sharing this wonderful reminder. I am blessed.

When I find myself in a silent season with GOD First I panic lol Then I realize GOD plan and to stay focus so that I can receive my blessing on GOD Timing.

girl I literally prayed this morning for God to show me a sign that he hears me 😂 cause I've been getting discouraged. I NEEDED to hear this!!

Sometimes no answer is an answer! I left my abusive marriage in march, I kept asking god to heal us and to heal him, things just got worse. I prayed for answers if I should just give up and leave, no answer. Once I left I immediately felt a calm and relief, god has reassured me that I understood him even when he was was silent.

Praise God you found peace. Going through a very similar time and situation. God bless you, and I pray that he continues to work in your life for the best of you❤

Amen 👏🏽 I'm in that season and I just tell Him I know you see and hear me but also let Him know I'm still gonna trust You.🙌🏾

I have been a silent watcher but i have a testimony to share with you. The video you did on Daniel's fast changed my life in 2021. I was led by the Holyspirit in March 2021 to watch that video and to be honest, prior to your video, i'd never heard of Daniel's fast. After watching it, i thought, what do i have to lose? So i did it for 21 days. After my Fast, i got pregnant SAME MONTH, after 8 years of battling Infertility. Doctors said my chances of having a child was zero to none but God did it and i named my son Daniel. Thanks for letting God use you as his vessel. God bless you!

Wow

I have learned and still learning in this silent season, I'm seeing God in new ways and He is speaking to me in new and different ways.

Through my "silent" times with God I learned that his flavor, grace, and empthy towards me has a limit before he feels its time to start tough loving me because im stubborn and i abuse this type of help eventually, I also learned that His "silents" is letting me know what I think it feels like to not have God in my life so than I relect, repent, and laern to apperiate him more and work on taking Him for granted, sis, I can go on. He's showed me alot and I learned alot from Him, to which im grateful. It truly is a building block even though it hurts but he knows good balances of compassionate love,mercy, and empathy to tough love, punishment,and correction to being "silent" then to talking with me again and making me aware more when He's talking to me. We serve an amazing God.

THANK YOU MY SISTER ❤ I was one of the ones that requested that you do a video on your post! So for me I've been asking God to change my circumstances. God told me what he needed me to do. When he told me I had so many reservations and doubts. God said I didn't tell you to have the answers...He said do what I called you to do. Needless to say I have been procrastinating and still haven't started. So things have been getting tight and of course I've been running to God saying "HELP ME PLEASE"! ...No response! My heart was broken. I was thinking he is mad at me or I'm missing something. Then I saw this and I'm reminded that he already has instructed me. That he is not a God who needs to keep repeating his self or that if I keep asking he will change his response. I keep asking him to change my circumstances,but I haven't done what he has told me to do to change them. So he is silent! He is so gracious and merciful he won't let me be destroyed cause his will will always be done..but he is waiting on me to be obedient and till I am he will not answer my prayers. Thank you so much SIS for reminding me God silence is him waiting on me to be obedient. Sending prayers and so much love to you and all my sisters reading this! "We are all in this together"❤

The waiting season taught me patience and humility. It took me from praying “ God, I want it like this” to “let your will be done”

I have been going through a really rough time. 19 weeks ago I was getting closer than ever to God and trusting Him. My life was turning around and becoming a whole lot more easier to walk through life. All of a sudden everything changed! I was taken out of work due to a broke foot and had no income. I ended up losing my job because of being out of work to long. I lost my phone and started losing faith. I started getting depressed and angry. I was just starting to live. I was getting back up the ladder and in a blink of an eye, everything changed. I tried to keep my faith and to keep trusting in Him but slowly I started to walk away from Him and I didn’t notice. My foot still isn’t better and still am not cleared to go to work. I couldn’t understand why I was going through this much at one time. It felt like I prayed and prayed and prayed and nothing was happening. I stopped reading the Bible and study. Nothing was changing and I felt as if He went silent on me and I stopped talking to Him. Now I see this is my silent season. God is testing my faith. I have failed and I feel really bad but I know God still loves me and cares about me! Thank you for posting this video!! It really helps me to realize that He hasn’t left my side. He is just staying silent. He is always with me! Thank you Melody for all of your videos! They bring me back to the light when I feel like I’ll never get out of the darkness! ❤

We all fail our tests at times. This is a season of repentence. Get back up! God loves you ❤

There was a season where it seemed as if God was allowing me to struggle. My mom would always remind me to take it to God and He would answer me. Each time I would place it at His feet, but wondered why I didn’t hear from Him. Then, out of the blue He would tell me the season I was heading in, but not the answer to my prayer or direction I inquired about. I grew frustrated. This lasted for the past 5-6 years. Yet, last year I fasted for approximately 2 weeks and realized it wasn’t that He wasn’t answering me, I just wasn’t in the position to hear Him. That’s why killing our flesh through fasting and prayer is essential and has been a must for me since.

I’m in a season where I’ve been praying for a change in my financial situation and things keep on getting worse but I’ve learnt that this season is necessary so that I can fully depend on God for provision and not my resources. I spend more time with God and not only pray about this particular situation but acknowledge that He is God even in the dry season. When I’m living in plenty I get so much busy that I spend less time in prayer.

Amen Amen it can be hard to stay in a season of waiting but good things come to those who wait in the lord❤❤

John 3:16 for God so love the world that he gave his one and only begotten son. Whosoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life💫

I feel like today had so many things happening but God has literally been doing a thing and I hope to continue being with him in this way. I pray for perseverance like Job!

Sooooo…happy Labor Day folks! Bless you Melody! I am in one now and I have truly been fighting a faith fight regarding it. I KNOW the Lord said He was going to bless in this area. It has been SO many years, but I know the Lord can’t lie! I have to hold on to the FACT that these times are for our growth and growth in faith! One of the ‘other side’ experiences I had was the blessing of my car. I was without a car and was looking. Long story short, the Lord asked me if I could wait for Him. Through frustration, I told Him yes - roughly 1 year later someone GAVE me a car!!!! HALLELUJAH! This has taught me that GOD CANNOT LIE, He knows what’s BEST and He is a MIRACLE worker. HIS LOVE for us is unmatched! Be encouraged everyone!! ☝🏽🙏🏽✝️

Thank you for this timely video. I learned more about the patience and divine wisdom of God in the midst of my silent season, which has spanned over the last three years. God used this time to reveal my insecurities concerning Him. I also have a beautiful testimony of His life-changing grace and mercy as well as His ability to restore all things concerning me, simply by filling the gaps with Himself. I'm honestly still in the process of receiving the blessing. God really is and can only be good.

We should stop wanting and start appreciating Holy God the fact we even exist we cannot grasp our heads around it, the intelligence of Holy God is mesmerizing Amen.

I’m so thankful I watched this video. God is always so intentional! I’ve read the story of Job many times before, but I totally missed the revelation about God proving satan wrong. I always focused on Job’s response. That’s why it’s so important to stay in the unchanging word of God. When we stay in His written word (logos), He will reveal to us new insights/revelations (rhema word). Thank you for being obedient & sharing God’s story of Job on your channel as it pertains to our walk with the Lord! 🙏🏽🙏🏽

I’m learning that God answers when you least expect it sometimes also in ways we may not expect I often used to miss the answers so if you do just keep praying and ask God to continue to show/confirm again

I've learnt that He's faithful and he'll never let me down.

This is so timely because I literally just finished reading the book of Job this afternoon. As soon as you mention that there was one particular person in the bible that experience God's silence in his life I just knew you were going to say the book of Job! How amazing and timely God is even in something like this and you posting this video for me to watch this evening 🙏🏽

The mindset"get up leave and holy God will provide" . We should appreciate that we all even can breathe the fact holy God created us is in itself a blessing.. I too have trouble by being selfish at times but trust holy God and have faith amen

Such a on time upload. I was literally pouring my heart out to God asking him God I’m lonely, I never had a healthy relationship even when I was in one I was alone, I just have been alone for so long now I really want thag love everyone gets , then attacks on my finances etc. I won’t give up on God but I really don’t get it! Then the devil keeps trying to say no one will want you, you have two kids they won’t settle. Just a lot of demeaning things I’m thinking that I need to rebuke

It only seems everyone else has love. Don’t choose a charming person!!! They tend to be manipulative. They want to lie and look good doing it. Please learn to avoid narcissists and sociopaths. These types will prey on your vulnerabilities. Do not think that human love will solve your loneliness. It really won’t. Only God can fulfill the longings of our cup and make our cup overflow…overflow so you can bless others with love. Study about having boundaries and saying no. Through rejection, God is protecting his people. Take relationships extremely slow. Be a closed book. Trust must be earned over a long period of time. Too needy means compromising too often. Be content in God always. Pray. Wait. Trust.

I’ve been going through it for a good 9 years with my husband. I tell you it hasn’t been easy and I e had Gods silence and I just don’t see things happening. I used to get so angry and mad and just now I’m learning to just keep praying and trusting him. It’s not easy at all because Lord knows I want to give up. And at times don’t think it’s fair. This message touched my heart so much. I’ve been following and watching your videos and I love them so much. I just never comment but today wow! God is good! Thank you!

I learned that He listens to me and his presence never leaves me.

For me : There are times im discouraged but i want to share 4 things that God is saying and we can all hold on to them 1. Trust in Gods timing cause yes his timing is perfect 2.God is figthing for you (Be still let him fight that battle you don't have the strength to fight) 3.He is making a way for you. God is always pursuing us even in Slience!!! (DONT sleepwalk the journey be able to see his miraculous jand moving and changing your life) 4. Prayer is the best medicine (Mosy important of it all that through pray we gain strength and perseverance that Christ hears us even when we heavy loaded in trials he is with us all) GODS GOR YOU AND ME✨✨I am still holding to faith for bigger things to come as im in a waiting season awaiting for my acceptance and all but he is still God holy holy holy he is Amen Amen love you Family God bless you all❤❤❤ Gid bless Miss Melody ans her wonderful family love you sis

God’s silence sometimes is just a test of your faith and your strength. He is there.

I know that in God's silence it's time of great trust and faith in Him. However, No matter how Silent it gets and how long the wait is he's working behind the scences for our good and the Best possible outcome He's designed just for us.

My car has been out of commission for 4 months. It cost 2000 to fix. My credit is bad and getting worse because I’m behind on car payments, trying to save the money to fix it AND the parts to fix it are on back order. I tried trading it in but i don’t make enough money and my credit sucks……i have prayed and prayed. I expected God to fix it. He hasn’t yet. I have surrendered completely to him. I don’t understand this but I trust him. He has come through soooo many times for me. I’m grateful for all those times. I’m excited to see what he does here……thank you for this video. I appreciate you ❤

Thank you. I feel like that now a little bit, but then I know God loves me!!😊😊

HalleluYAH! (Praise God!). God is LOVE; loving, good, merciful, faithful, trustworthy; awesome, magnificent, understanding, almighty; brilliant, generous, caring, forgiving, kind, wise, great, patient, omnipresent, wonderful, compassionate, sovereign, worthy, and everything else He truly is as my/our God; Heavenly Father and Mother; Creator; LORD and SAVIOR; Best Fried; Provider; Protector; Judge; Refuge; KING of Kings and LORD of Lords; etc. Thank you Lord God for EVERYTHING you have ever done, do, and will do for me/us. Amen. Glory HalleluYAH! Praise and thank God ALWAYS for everything, because He knows what's best for us and He will ONLY allow what's best for us to happen to us; be given to us; and or taken away from us (no matter what it is). Amen. HalleluYAH! Sister Melody and Brethren in the Faith, t God has taught me about His "Silent Seasons", which I never knew existed (until today). Now I understand what it is and why it happens, and that I am not alone in my silent seasons. God has (via your video and viewers comments today) instructed me to be patient with Him and endure in my faith and walk with Him. And to always remember, that He has not forsaken me and will never do so in my walk and relationship with Him. Amen. I pray for everyone of my brothers and sisters in the faith to hold on to your faith and relationship with our Heavenly Father God and His Son- our Lord and Savior Christ Jesus (whom God has saved us through, Amen). "No Matter the cost and no matter the cross. STAY faithful to God, no matter what." Amen:).

If God is silent I used to be scared cuz I want confirmed approval. and want direction and instructions. Now im chilling waiting and sometimes I get impatient but God always get to me when I need Him most.

I am going through a difficult season and your videos bring me so much peace. They also help me study the Bible, thank you for all the ways you hold us in softness and grace!

For me, when I have sinned, turned my back on the Lord, only to come back to him when something bad happens to me or my life is in turmoil, I feel like I don’t deserve to hear from Him….not yet, anyway. I feel like it’s a repercussion of my disobedience. I know that God doesn’t punish us, but he does discipline us. And right now, I am very much being disciplined. Rightfully so. But I still continue to talk & walk with Him. I know my Father loves me! ❤🙏🏻

Yesterday I said “I feel like Job,” and today I saw this video. Okay God I hear you

Its so hard to keep going. Thank you.

I have been in a silent season for many many years and have believed God isn't there, doesnt care about me and no longer hears my prayers!

The test is for us to see how our faith is. God already knows. The test is to “Stablish, strengthen, settle us.”

I wish when i was in that season that i gave God more praise. I wished i magnified God instead of my problems. But next time, i will be sure to magnify God

I am grateful for my life. I have cried off and on for the past few days. When I go one way, it feels as if it’s a no. When I try to not think about/ go the OTHER way, it’s a no. I know I am to be still. It’s difficult when you are being the best person you know how to be and feel as if you going nowhere. I am following the last word I received from God. In doing so, I came upon something that broke me down…the reason I have been crying off and on. I will keep going. Thank you for posting this video.

I was just sitting on my bed wandering why all the prayers and fasting and sowing of seeds, yet nothing is happening and it’s as though my prayers are happening for other people. I was so discouraged I even complained to my best friend. Then I saw this video and I was reminded that God is with me though he may be silent. And just like he confronted Job about the things in existence Job knew nothing about, God reminded me the things I tend to forget that without HIS Grace and Mercy, without his provision and protection I would never have. I went on my knees and cried out to God for forgiveness, for focusing on the mini problems when I didn’t even know how He made so many ways for the bigger problems, so what makes me think He’s not the same God or that he wouldn’t come through like he has in the past. I have to remember to worship God when the enemy tries to lie or distract me from how awesome our God is. God bless you

God is definitely speaking ❗️ This morning in my time with the Lord, I got ⭐️Proverbs 3:26. Then I went about my day and I was looking for a name for my new business and everything I came up with, no good, cause someone else was using it, at this point I got frustrated. So I put this search down and went outside for a bit. Then I came back and decided to make a business plan and this KZread channel this woman had ⭐️2 Samuel 22:29. Then after that your video ( which I never seen on my KZread feed before) comes up and I watched, weeping because I know that I was trying to control this , instead of trusting the Lord's timing ❗️

So, i know i’m late to this conversation but i just so happened to stumble across this content. I feel like right now at age 31, with so many desires at heart, and non of them coming to past yet. I am definitely in my waiting season. I am waiting on the lord to bless me financial with a good paying job. Enough to cover my bills all on my own. I’m also waiting for my boyfriend of 13 years to finally make me a wife, and last im waiting for God to bless me with the opportunity to become a mom. I know that he can do anything. He’s more than capable. after watching this video. I realized. I just have to wait on God. Thank You so much for the clarity i now feel.

Thank you Melody! God lead me to this video. Just yesterday I asked God "Where are you?" and Why do I not feel you here? I am really going through a tough time and this video gave me understanding. Sometimes we need to be reminded. I can't wait to get through this. Its so hard.

Just had 8 tragedies in my life, one after the other and the last four were at the same time. Nothing is really resolved…just some level of acceptance for some, and still grieving the new tragedies. Sorrow upon sorrow. Lies, betrayal, manipulation, secrecy, rejection, prodigal children, resulting in confusion, sorrow, loneliness, isolation, and more. I’ve been in a pit for 3 years. Some has come from fellow Christians who refused to be there for me when I was in deep despair. It’s just so much. Victim shaming and victim blaming.

The silent times are definitely a test. Either we will use those times to run *to* God or *away* from God. What can we do that is profitable without God? Nothing. I think of it this way, He's waited on US, and we can surely wait on HIM.

He’s still communicating even when He seems silent!

God being silent is one of the most difficult things I've had to navigate through.

Amen! Gods always on time sis. All the best!

There are so many things that I learn in silent times with God, one is trust. Can keep I trusting Him. It’s a season of maturity and teaching me that my relationship with Him real and tangible. He is who He says He is 😊

Thank you Holy Spirit for leading me to this channel. I too am in a silent season it has been tough but i God is still providing in spite of I'm trusting that things are going to better I still say yes.I know God is still on the Throne I know many stand In need I encourage y'all to be encouraged God is still with us in Jesus name Amen!

I think I'm in a season of waiting. I'm angry at God and a part of me feels bad that I am. I know that this process is for my good if only I keep an open mind and heart, and allow God to complete His work within me. I cry all the time because this season is extremely painful, I feel the pain physically. Somehow, you kind word conveyed with so much calm have given me a different perspective. I will spend time in the book of Job because I need his attitude. Thank you for the content❤❤❤

I have a lot going on right now and this is the second day in a row that the book of Job has been presented to me. I take that as God telling me to sit down and read Job this week🙌🏾

Your videos are always a great reminder of how God is working even when we don't think he is. Thank you for sharing your gift ♥
