Let me ask you an honest question.

Have you ever been in one of those moments—a crisis, a loss, a crossroads—and you prayed for wisdom…and it felt like nothing came?

And heaven was silent.

 

What do we do with that? Why would God ever refuse to answer a child who sincerely seeks His direction? Scripture gives several explanations, but one of the clearest, and frankly one of the most sobering, appears in today’s chapter of1 Samuel 28. 

But today’s episode isn’t only about Saul’s story—it’s also about prayer.

About spiritual responsiveness. 

About the conditions of the heart that either opens the ear of God… or close it….
