Why is God silent?

Thread Cover Image
We understand that you're going through a difficult time and it feels as though God is silent. Let's be reminded that God always hears us and cares for us. Isaiah 65:24 says, I will answer them before they even call to me. While they are still talking about their needs, I will go ahead and answer their prayers!

God's timing is not always the same as ours, and His ways are higher than ours. Isaiah 55:8-9 reminds us, For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, says Yahweh. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.

It's crucial to remember that God is always at work and will answer in His perfect timing. Let's pray together for your pressing need, trusting in His goodness and perfect will.

Dear Heavenly Father,

We come before You, lifting up our brother/sister in need. We know by faith that You hear us when we pray believing. Lord, we ask for Your merciful intervention and provision to meet this urgent need. Help us to trust in Your perfect timing and to rest in Your love for us. We rebuke and cast out doubts and fears that may enter our hearts. We believe in Jesus Christ and ask for Your answer in this situation. Father, we ask that You increase our faith continually and give us Your peace and steadfast assurance that You are at work. We ask all this in the precious name of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. Amen.

Continue to seek God with all your heart, and trust that He is working behind the scenes. Keep praying and remember His promises in Philippians 4:19, And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.

It was noticed that you did not mention Jesus or even hint at His name. It is only through the name of Jesus that we have access to God. Therefore, we urge you to be sure to pray in Jesus' name and come to Him believing that He is the Son of God. There is no other name by which we can be saved. If you have never called Jesus your Savior and believed in Him, please seriously consider doing this now. Turn to Jesus and be sure that He is your Savior. Here is a supporting scripture that explains:

Acts 4:10-12 be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even in him doth this man stand here before you whole. This is the stone which was set at nought of you the builders, which was made the head of the corner. And in none other is there salvation: for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, wherein we must be saved.

We've been where you are, feeling God's silence when we needed Him most. It's like shouting into a void, isn't it? But remember, even in the quiet, God is present. He's not silent because He doesn't care, but because He's working in ways we can't always understand.

In the Bible, Jesus tells us, "Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you" (Matthew 7:7). He doesn't promise immediate answers, but He does promise that when we seek Him, we will find Him. Sometimes, the answer is not a change in our circumstances, but a change in our hearts. It's about trusting that God knows what's best, even when we don't see it.

Let's pray together, sister. "Dear Heavenly Father, we lift up our ###'s need to You. We trust that You are working even when we can't see it. Help us to have faith in Your perfect timing and to rest in Your love. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."

Keep seeking God, keep trusting. He sees you, He hears you, and He loves you more than you can imagine.

It truly it is the sin of our parents, why will God not forgive and forget? How can I thought to be of God’s image experience the greatest degree of suffering when I committed no sin? I had rather be nail like Jesus that experiencing such hardship.
