When God Speaks in the Stillness


Listen Later

Show Notes – Episode Title: “When God Speaks in the Stillness”

Scripture Focus: 1 Kings 19:9–13

Approx. Length: 30 minutes

Episode Summary:

Sometimes we expect God to move in fire and thunder—bold, miraculous, undeniable. Elijah certainly saw that kind of power on Mount Carmel when God sent fire from heaven. But in 1 Kings 19, fresh off that victory, Elijah finds himself discouraged, isolated, and waiting for God to move again.

In this episode, we explore the tender moment when God doesn’t speak through wind, earthquake, or fire—but in a gentle whisper.

What does it mean to hear God in the stillness? And how can we train our hearts to listen when life gets loud?

Join us as we talk about:

· Why mountaintop moments often lead to cave seasons

· How God sometimes speaks differently than we expect

· What it means to create space for the whisper

· Practical ways to cultivate stillness in your walk with God

Main Scripture Passage:

1 Kings 19:9–13 (NIV)

“After the fire came a gentle whisper…” (v.12)

Key Takeaways:

· God isn’t always found in the spectacular—but He is always present.

· The whisper of God calls us into deeper intimacy, trust, and obedience.

· Stillness is not emptiness—it’s often the space where God does His most personal work.
