When grief overwhelms you, does God feel distant? Do your prayers feel empty, as if they’re met with silence? You’re not alone. In this episode, we explore the power of stillness before the Lord—how choosing silence can deepen your faith, bring peace in the storm, and open your heart to hear God more clearly.
Through personal testimony and biblical wisdom, we’ll look at Revelation 8:1, where even heaven pauses in silence before God. If stillness is a sacred act in heaven, what could it mean for your journey through grief? Learn how surrendering to God’s presence, rather than striving for answers, can transform the way you navigate pain and loss.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:- Why silence before God is a powerful act of trust in the midst of grief
- How stillness creates space to hear God’s voice more clearly
- Practical steps to incorporate silence into your faith journey for greater peace
- Silence is an act of trust. Choosing to be still before God is a way of surrendering control and resting in His presence. (Psalm 46:10)
- Stillness allows you to hear God. Like Elijah in 1 Kings 19, God often speaks in a gentle whisper—but we must quiet our hearts to listen.
- God fights for you in the silence. When we stop striving, we allow Him to work on our behalf. (Exodus 14:14)
If you’re struggling to hear God in your grief, take this as an invitation to sit in His presence. He is near.
