Latest / Daily Transformation / What God is Saying when He is Silent
Transcript
- 0:00The hardest thing for anybody is to actually relate with God in a
- 0:05season where God is silenced, you know, but they are
- 0:08interpretation to the silence of God in the matter.
- 0:11Let's say you are used to talking to somebody every time
- 0:15and you go into the place of prayer.
- 0:16God only speaks to you about the matter.
- 0:18God gives you guidance, God give you direction.
- 0:21And then at some point now you are praying.
- 0:23You're not hearing anything. You try to inquire from Him on
- 0:27direction to take, what to do. God is not giving you direction.
- 0:31You see, that could be very difficult, especially in a
- 0:33season of need. And it seems like you've been
- 0:35abandoned by him or you're or he no longer wants to lead you or
- 0:40guide you. But you see, there's a way you
- 0:43can interpret the silence of God, because when God is
- 0:47silenced about the matter, it's not because he's not silenced,
- 0:50because even in that season, God is still speaking.
- 0:54There's something He's telling you indirectly, and part of it
- 0:58would be that it could be that you should continue in the last
- 1:01instruction that you are. So maybe God told you you should
- 1:05pray every morning before you go to work and then you did it for
- 1:09two months, then you don't go back to God.
- 1:11What next? But then God didn't respond.
- 1:14It could be that he's telling you keep on praying.
- 1:17You know, it is important for you to interpret that silence
- 1:20because even if you do not understand that you can go out
- 1:24of a season and miss out on the opportunities that God has in
- 1:29store for you. Do you realize that there were
- 1:31men who got told them to walk 7 days around the city and on the
- 1:37seven days seven times? Do you know that on the day six
- 1:39while they were running? Because imagine while you're
- 1:41taking that walk, you should be expecting some signs around the
- 1:44world already cracking, you know.
- 1:46But there was no record that says that the building already
- 1:49where was showing the sign of it falling.
- 1:52So it means that there were men who wanted to stay active.
- 1:55Joshua, Are you sure God really told you this?
- 1:58You know, and I could even imagine Joshua going to ask God
- 2:01like Are you sure this will work?
- 2:03Because the warriors are looking at us.
- 2:05The city is still standing strong more than ever before,
- 2:08very fortified world. But at the end of the day, we
- 2:11realize that God never spoke after that meaning even in his
- 2:15silence. The interpretation of it is that
- 2:18keep on working till your obedience is complete, till that
- 2:21which God has told it to do is complete.
- 2:23So that's why most times we may want to venture into things or
- 2:27areas and then of our inability to understand when God is
- 2:32silent, then we try to do other things.
- 2:35But you can actually take the right step by engaging in the
- 2:39last instruction God gives you. So for sometimes when God is
- 2:43silence about you is that he's saying keep on pressing in the
- 2:46direction that he has told you to do.
- 2:48Sometimes we keep on praying, Sometimes we keep on applying.
- 2:51You know, maybe you made applications and you know
- 2:53nothing good came out of it. You are asking God what next?
- 2:56It could be say go again, you try to do business and it seems
- 3:00like nothing good is coming out of that business.
- 3:02He's silencing the matter as part in your finances would be
- 3:05keep on going, keep on pressing. So it's not necessarily to said,
- 3:09well, God didn't say anything, let me leave it.
- 3:12No, it may not be for you to leave it, but it may be for you
- 3:15to actually keep on going deeper in that area.
- 3:17So you can understand those silence by checking out the last
- 3:21instruction he has given to you or the last step he told you to
- 3:25do the last thing he told you to do.
- 3:27And through that you can be able to step into all that God has
- 3:30for you. I hope this would bless or
- 3:32ministers to someone today and this is a daily transformation.
- 3:37Feel free to share this with someone and let it also be a
- 3:39blessing to them. God bless you.
