Have you ever felt like everything was being stripped away—friends drifting, doors closing, opportunities drying up—and wondered, “What did I do wrong?” What if that season of isolation isn’t punishment, but preparation?
In this episode of A Surrendered Heart Podcast, Robin teaches that God often isolates before He elevates. Looking at Luke 5:16 and Exodus 24:12, you’ll see how Jesus, Moses, and others experienced divine isolation before stepping into greater assignments. You’ll discover why God pulls you away from noise and distractions, how He uses solitude to heal, refine, and strengthen you, and what it means to be set apart for holiness.
By the end of this episode, you’ll be encouraged to stop resisting isolation and start embracing it as God’s invitation to deeper intimacy, clarity, and preparation for your next level.
Homework for this episode: Set aside one day this week to spend 30 minutes in stillness with God. No phone, no music, no distractions. Journal what He reveals to you in that quiet time.
👉 If you gave your life to Christ today, we would love to hear from you. Please email us at ASurrenderedHeartPodcast@gmail.com so we can celebrate with you and send encouragement for your new journey.
