WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:10.640
Music.

00:00:10.481 --> 00:00:15.181
Welcome to the Diary of a Black Woman podcast with your host,

00:00:15.441 --> 00:00:21.321
Connie Morris, where truth speaks, healing begins, and every word is rooted in faith.

00:00:21.581 --> 00:00:25.501
Before we begin, let us go before the Lord in prayer.

00:00:25.681 --> 00:00:29.641
Opening prayer, Father God, we thank you for this moment.

00:00:29.921 --> 00:00:35.141
We thank you for every listener, every heart, and every home represented.

00:00:35.141 --> 00:00:37.981
We invite your presence into this space.

00:00:38.241 --> 00:00:43.401
As we begin, we stand on the words of Jabez in 1 Chronicles 4.10.

00:00:43.661 --> 00:00:48.221
And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, So that thou wouldest bless me

00:00:48.221 --> 00:00:52.081
indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me,

00:00:52.161 --> 00:00:55.841
and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me.

00:00:55.961 --> 00:00:58.321
And God granted him that which he requested.

00:00:58.641 --> 00:01:04.821
Lord, today we echo that same prayer. Bless us indeed.

00:01:05.141 --> 00:01:10.261
Bless every woman listening. Bless her mind, her body, her relationships,

00:01:10.661 --> 00:01:12.541
her dreams, and her destiny.

00:01:12.821 --> 00:01:16.601
Let your blessing not only surround her, but transform her.

00:01:17.021 --> 00:01:20.701
Enlarge our coast. Stretch us beyond what we thought was possible.

00:01:21.001 --> 00:01:25.161
Expand our influence, our impact, and the reach of this message,

00:01:25.381 --> 00:01:27.561
not for our glory, but for yours.

00:01:27.841 --> 00:01:31.621
Let your hand be with us. Go before us in every conversation.

00:01:31.881 --> 00:01:37.841
Guide our words, anoint our purpose, and let every episode carry your truth with clarity and power.

00:01:38.061 --> 00:01:41.041
Keep us from evil that it may not grieve us.

00:01:41.361 --> 00:01:47.001
Shield us from harm, from cycles of sorrow, from spiritual attack and emotional heaviness.

00:01:47.281 --> 00:01:52.321
Cover us in your grace so we rise in strength, not in grief,

00:01:52.601 --> 00:01:54.601
in wholeness, not in wounds.

00:01:54.801 --> 00:02:00.661
And just as you granted Jabez what he requested, Lord, granted unto us.

00:02:00.801 --> 00:02:05.381
Let this podcast be a wellspring of truth, a refuge for healing,

00:02:05.461 --> 00:02:09.881
and a launchpad for purpose. In the mighty name of Jesus, amen.

00:02:10.221 --> 00:02:12.841
Hello, and welcome back to Diary of a Black Woman podcast.

00:02:13.221 --> 00:02:17.501
I'm your host, Connie Morris, and we're continuing our faith on the go message

00:02:17.501 --> 00:02:20.441
with when God wants to talk.

00:02:20.561 --> 00:02:26.621
We're in devotional number five, I believe, trusting God's silence.

00:02:26.881 --> 00:02:30.461
So today we're going to start off in Psalms 37, 7.

00:02:30.901 --> 00:02:34.901
It says, Be still before the Lord and wait patiently for him.

00:02:35.061 --> 00:02:40.581
Do not fret when people succeed in their ways and carry out their wicked schemes.

00:02:40.781 --> 00:02:43.521
Silence, as we know, can be unsettling.

00:02:43.821 --> 00:02:48.281
When God wakes us in the middle of the night or in the stillness of the night

00:02:48.281 --> 00:02:53.901
with no clear words, no thoughts, or revelation comes, we may often wonder,

00:02:54.061 --> 00:02:57.041
did I hear him wrong? Why isn't he speaking?

00:02:57.401 --> 00:03:03.261
Yes, silence is often a sacred space where God invites us to trust him more deeply.

00:03:03.521 --> 00:03:08.901
So if you have been waking up and you haven't heard God, that is still God.

00:03:09.181 --> 00:03:12.901
You know, God is pretty much saying, hey, I'm prepping you for something.

00:03:13.081 --> 00:03:16.481
I'm just seeing if you're paying attention, you know.

00:03:16.621 --> 00:03:20.521
And we know that God uses silence throughout the scripture. It's a powerful

00:03:20.521 --> 00:03:25.781
tool to prepare, to refine, and to strengthen his people. So consider the Israelites

00:03:25.781 --> 00:03:30.301
waiting in the wilderness or the 400 years of silence before Jesus was born.

00:03:30.501 --> 00:03:36.041
These were moments of abandon. They were seasons of preparation for something greater.

00:03:36.241 --> 00:03:41.421
So just because God is silent does not mean he is not working,

00:03:41.741 --> 00:03:44.761
that he's not doing something greater inside of you.

00:03:45.021 --> 00:03:49.861
Just remember that if you wake up in the silent, just Lord, just say,

00:03:49.981 --> 00:03:56.241
Lord, speak. I'm listening and just wait because he is watching. He is paying attention.

00:03:56.521 --> 00:04:01.461
God's silence doesn't mean he isn't working. In fact, silence often signifies

00:04:01.461 --> 00:04:06.581
he is drawing us into a deeper level of faith where we rely not only on what

00:04:06.581 --> 00:04:10.321
we hear or see, but on his unchanging character.

00:04:10.995 --> 00:04:16.135
Psalms 46.10 reminds us to be still and know that I am God.

00:04:16.635 --> 00:04:21.655
Stillness allows us to rest in His sovereignty and trust that His timing is

00:04:21.655 --> 00:04:23.975
perfect, even when it feels delayed.

00:04:24.215 --> 00:04:30.455
In the quiet of the night, when the answers don't come, choose to sit with Him anyway.

00:04:30.815 --> 00:04:37.015
Trust that His silence is intentional, that He is with you, even when you cannot feel Him.

00:04:37.295 --> 00:04:42.475
So going deeper, silence is refinement. Just as gold is refined in fire.

00:04:42.935 --> 00:04:47.375
Silence is often the season where God purifies and strengthens our faith.

00:04:47.595 --> 00:04:52.035
Ask yourself, what is God teaching me about trust during this time?

00:04:52.155 --> 00:04:57.175
You know, God has been giving me, been granting me these gifts of dreams and

00:04:57.175 --> 00:04:59.335
offering me like the words every day.

00:04:59.435 --> 00:05:04.155
But sometimes he does go silent and I'm like, Lord, where are you?

00:05:04.315 --> 00:05:07.075
But it's not like he's missing in action, right?

00:05:07.335 --> 00:05:12.395
It's more of another level. And so if he's not speaking, I'm always looking

00:05:12.395 --> 00:05:16.835
around like you never had your spirit just searching the room,

00:05:16.975 --> 00:05:18.975
you know, like what is God up to?

00:05:19.155 --> 00:05:21.595
Because he is definitely up to something.

00:05:21.815 --> 00:05:26.915
He's refining you. And no sooner than I think that he is not speaking,

00:05:27.275 --> 00:05:32.175
things begin to happen where in the natural things begin to speak.

00:05:32.375 --> 00:05:37.995
For instance, I remember he was quiet and then I get a call into my boss's office

00:05:37.995 --> 00:05:40.835
and And he says, Connie, are you interested in teaching a class?

00:05:41.035 --> 00:05:46.295
Now, I understand I'm out of the university into a different arena where unless

00:05:46.295 --> 00:05:53.235
you have a degree in counseling or something, you don't really get opportunity to teach.

00:05:53.415 --> 00:05:58.395
And so my boss says, Connie, I'm going to send you to this particular training

00:05:58.395 --> 00:06:03.055
and you're going to get certified. And I'm also allow you to teach this particular thing.

00:06:03.175 --> 00:06:09.435
And I'm like, wow. how God was silent, but then he was speaking through the people around me.

00:06:09.795 --> 00:06:15.575
So always, like I've been telling you, God is in the room and he's in the room.

00:06:15.775 --> 00:06:18.595
Either it's your bedroom, your living room, your back porch,

00:06:18.735 --> 00:06:21.995
wherever he's at, he's with you all the time, even at your workplace.

00:06:22.275 --> 00:06:25.655
So if you're not hearing him in the night, if you're not hearing him in a day.

00:06:26.115 --> 00:06:30.455
If you're not hearing him in your prayer, begin to search to listen to him speak

00:06:30.455 --> 00:06:35.555
to the people around you. And just recently, I just got another opportunity to teach.

00:06:35.735 --> 00:06:38.975
I wrote a training manual for our ushers in.

00:06:39.658 --> 00:06:44.278
I just got an email saying, hey, Connie, can you teach? Would you help me teach this class?

00:06:44.618 --> 00:06:51.518
And I'm like, wow, you know. So remember, even though the silence, God is still on the move.

00:06:51.698 --> 00:06:54.638
Number two, going deeper, faith beyond feelings.

00:06:54.998 --> 00:07:01.398
Trust God's silence means believing in his presence, even when there's no tangible confirmation.

00:07:01.758 --> 00:07:06.858
You have to believe that when he says that, he'll never leave you or forsake

00:07:06.858 --> 00:07:11.118
you. that whether you've sensed him in the room, whether he's speaking to you

00:07:11.118 --> 00:07:16.278
in the room, whether it's silence, that his promises are always true.

00:07:16.678 --> 00:07:22.198
When we reflect on Hebrews 11, now faith is confidence in what we hope for and

00:07:22.198 --> 00:07:24.358
assurance about what we do not see.

00:07:24.518 --> 00:07:29.498
So that means that we still have to use our faith, whether we feel him in the

00:07:29.498 --> 00:07:33.658
room, hear him in the room, or sense him in the room, that his promises,

00:07:33.938 --> 00:07:39.438
whether he said it, Remember his words carry weight that we have to trust that

00:07:39.438 --> 00:07:43.538
he will do what he said he will do. I love that.

00:07:43.738 --> 00:07:49.278
Now faith is a confidence in what we hope for and the assurance about what we do not see.

00:07:49.638 --> 00:07:53.838
Going deeper, part three, it says wait with expectation.

00:07:54.298 --> 00:07:57.738
So silence is refinement. Faith brought beyond feelings.

00:07:58.118 --> 00:08:03.758
Number three, waiting with expectation. God silence doesn't mean he won't answer.

00:08:03.758 --> 00:08:07.098
It means he's working on something in his time.

00:08:07.618 --> 00:08:09.958
Lamentations 3.25 reminds us,

00:08:10.238 --> 00:08:15.498
the Lord is good to those who hope is in him, to the one who seeks him.

00:08:15.758 --> 00:08:19.278
So don't get that. You know, sometimes you ever know people,

00:08:19.758 --> 00:08:22.618
and sometimes our kids can be that way when they're younger.

00:08:22.798 --> 00:08:26.398
And even some adults can be that way. They can really be super clingy.

00:08:26.538 --> 00:08:28.558
I didn't talk to you yesterday.

00:08:28.718 --> 00:08:30.858
Well, you didn't call me. That's like, hello.

00:08:31.218 --> 00:08:34.358
I mean, you are an adult. I mean, if I don't call you, it don't mean I need

00:08:34.358 --> 00:08:36.818
to talk to you every moment of every day.

00:08:36.998 --> 00:08:42.278
And God is that same way. As we are adults in the room, you see I'm using that

00:08:42.278 --> 00:08:45.218
a lot, then maybe he doesn't need to talk to you every day.

00:08:45.658 --> 00:08:51.058
But you have a great expectation that he will talk to you, a great expectation

00:08:51.058 --> 00:08:57.418
that he's working on something in his time, great expectation of hope and expectation,

00:08:57.718 --> 00:09:02.998
and that your faith and confidence is in him, and that there is a great refinement

00:09:02.998 --> 00:09:07.958
happening and that we have grown up that we are not walking by our feelings,

00:09:07.958 --> 00:09:11.398
but we are walking by our faith. Let's continue with Scripture.

00:09:11.678 --> 00:09:16.818
Scripture insights for this devotional is, Why do you stand far off?

00:09:16.938 --> 00:09:20.778
Why did you hide yourself in times of trouble? Psalms 10.1.

00:09:21.438 --> 00:09:27.158
Even David questions God's silence, but always return to trusting in his faithfulness.

00:09:27.358 --> 00:09:29.738
You know, sometimes the silence can be long.

00:09:30.038 --> 00:09:38.298
I'm at 253 devotionals, and it seems quiet right now.

00:09:38.438 --> 00:09:44.398
But yet, he gave me a word, and it was just a word, and I was going to be a devotional.

00:09:44.738 --> 00:09:48.478
And so the way he begins to speak to us may be different.

00:09:48.998 --> 00:09:53.158
Maybe he's always spoke to you during your prayer time, but now he may speak

00:09:53.158 --> 00:09:56.858
to you in the night hour, the night watch. He may speak to you.

00:09:57.058 --> 00:10:02.278
It's just, God is so multifaceted that he never wants you to get bored with

00:10:02.278 --> 00:10:04.858
him and get in routine and enter rituals.

00:10:05.078 --> 00:10:08.438
And so he'll change up on you. Same voice, same God,

00:10:08.878 --> 00:10:14.578
but he, and it might be kind of a similar routine, but he'll switch it up on

00:10:14.578 --> 00:10:19.718
you so that you can always be an expectation to always know that he doesn't

00:10:19.718 --> 00:10:21.438
have to speak to you on the left.

00:10:21.598 --> 00:10:23.738
He can speak to you on the right, in the middle, on the side,

00:10:23.878 --> 00:10:25.818
in the morning, in the evening, in the afternoon.

00:10:26.078 --> 00:10:32.418
He can speak to you when he desires to speak to you, not always at your time.

00:10:32.698 --> 00:10:36.738
So if you missed him in the morning, then you seek him in the evening and watch.

00:10:36.918 --> 00:10:38.838
He might have a new time for you.

00:10:40.398 --> 00:10:46.798
Just don't get all freddy and clingy. Lord, I'm still seeking you.

00:10:46.798 --> 00:10:48.338
You might have changed it.

00:10:48.886 --> 00:10:52.046
A little bit, but I'm still going to serve for you. Psalms 27,

00:10:52.386 --> 00:10:55.106
13 to 14, it says, I remain faithful in this.

00:10:55.186 --> 00:10:57.986
I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.

00:10:58.346 --> 00:11:02.066
Wait for the Lord, be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.

00:11:02.206 --> 00:11:08.086
So that's a lot because God always wants to speak, but are you willing to wait for him?

00:11:08.526 --> 00:11:12.906
Are you willing to wait? Like many times in many seasons, you'll get series

00:11:12.906 --> 00:11:14.366
and series and series of dreams.

00:11:14.546 --> 00:11:17.146
And then sometimes it seems like it'll go dormant.

00:11:17.366 --> 00:11:21.566
He hasn't changed his mind about you, just a new way he's doing things.

00:11:21.706 --> 00:11:23.346
Just growing us up, right?

00:11:23.586 --> 00:11:27.506
Wait for the Lord, be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord.

00:11:27.746 --> 00:11:32.426
Waiting is an act of faith that strengthens our confidence in God, in God's goodness.

00:11:32.746 --> 00:11:35.086
So waiting is kind of like lifting weights.

00:11:35.426 --> 00:11:40.106
You're lifting your faith weights, getting your heart strong so that when there's

00:11:40.106 --> 00:11:43.126
ever a sense of silence, you don't panic.

00:11:43.466 --> 00:11:49.486
You're able to still stand strong. And then we're going to continue with Habakkuk 2.3.

00:11:49.686 --> 00:11:55.666
It says, For the vision awaits an appointed time. It speaks of the end and will not prove false.

00:11:55.866 --> 00:12:01.206
Though it lingers, wait for it. It will certainly come and will not delay. I like that.

00:12:01.406 --> 00:12:04.666
God's silence often aligns with his perfect timing.

00:12:04.846 --> 00:12:09.966
So God has a plan, but it says the vision awaits for an appointed time.

00:12:10.006 --> 00:12:13.446
It speaks of the end and will not prove false.

00:12:13.726 --> 00:12:18.006
And I just always believe that, you know, maybe I'm right, maybe I'm wrong,

00:12:18.146 --> 00:12:23.346
that the longer you wait for the Lord, the bigger that blessing is, right?

00:12:23.486 --> 00:12:28.466
If God got to baby you and coddle you along the way, you're getting your blessings right there.

00:12:28.586 --> 00:12:34.566
But if you learn how to mature in Him, then that blessing seems to be a lot bigger, right?

00:12:34.826 --> 00:12:36.986
Gives you a chance to mature in Him.

00:12:37.366 --> 00:12:41.546
God's silence often aligns with His perfect timing.

00:12:41.828 --> 00:12:48.948
So it always works in this perfect timing. And so what are some things you can do while you wait?

00:12:49.268 --> 00:12:54.328
What can you do while you wait? Number one, you can wait in silence,

00:12:54.468 --> 00:13:01.068
sit in silence. Like tonight, if you wake and hear nothing, resist the urge

00:13:01.068 --> 00:13:02.948
to fill the silence with noise.

00:13:03.228 --> 00:13:07.788
I know I had a habit of doing that. I grabbed my little iPad and just started watching videos.

00:13:08.728 --> 00:13:13.948
And that's not how you wait on the Lord, by watching videos. That's a distraction.

00:13:14.468 --> 00:13:19.228
Instead, pray, Lord, I trust you, even in silence, and I know you are here.

00:13:19.488 --> 00:13:22.768
So you just trust that I know you're here, Lord, and I'm just going to wait

00:13:22.768 --> 00:13:26.228
in silence with you. Number two, seek his presence, not answers.

00:13:26.588 --> 00:13:31.868
You know, we come running to God with our hands out instead of with our hearts open.

00:13:32.108 --> 00:13:37.028
Open these moments to focus on who God is rather than what he can give.

00:13:37.388 --> 00:13:39.888
Meditate on his faithfulness, love, and sovereignty.

00:13:40.448 --> 00:13:44.628
You know, think about how old that can get though. If we always run into God,

00:13:44.988 --> 00:13:46.508
God, I need, I need, I need.

00:13:46.628 --> 00:13:50.328
Can I get, can I get, can I get? Even if our kids or our husband,

00:13:50.388 --> 00:13:54.248
I'm not married, But if the person you're married to always want,

00:13:54.388 --> 00:13:58.928
want, want, need, need, need, that can get old real, real fast, right?

00:13:59.168 --> 00:14:01.968
But how about just seeking him because he is God?

00:14:02.408 --> 00:14:06.788
How about, remember I told you, if his words carry weight, think of what his presence carry.

00:14:07.611 --> 00:14:11.671
Because you know when he enters a room, you sense it. So he can just speak just

00:14:11.671 --> 00:14:13.271
because he showed up, you know?

00:14:13.431 --> 00:14:15.971
So seek his presence, not always the answers.

00:14:16.311 --> 00:14:22.091
God just want to partner with us. He just want to be in the room without you asking for anything.

00:14:22.671 --> 00:14:26.931
Because remember, he knows what we need before we ask. Sometimes he wants us to ask.

00:14:27.331 --> 00:14:30.091
Sometimes he just wants us to sit in his presence, right?

00:14:30.331 --> 00:14:36.691
And number three, journey your trust. Write down a prayer of trust in God's timing and silence.

00:14:37.191 --> 00:14:41.071
Reflect on his strength and your faith. And sometimes, you know,

00:14:41.251 --> 00:14:44.471
if you wake up in their silence and you're sitting in silence,

00:14:44.811 --> 00:14:48.791
sometimes you can just pray in your holy language and just pray, you know.

00:14:49.011 --> 00:14:52.671
Seek God and speak to him in spirit to spirit.

00:14:53.011 --> 00:14:56.371
Remember, we that worship him must worship him in spirit and truth.

00:14:56.591 --> 00:15:00.451
So now instead of sitting there because our mind can wander,

00:15:00.771 --> 00:15:06.091
we can just begin to focus and speak, pray out in our holy language, pick up our Bible.

00:15:06.091 --> 00:15:09.651
Sometimes it's kind of hard when you're sleepy that you want to pick up your

00:15:09.651 --> 00:15:14.691
Bible, but you can pick it up or you can just get up and just begin to pray.

00:15:14.951 --> 00:15:18.471
You know, Lord, I know you're in the room. I want to communicate you through

00:15:18.471 --> 00:15:21.111
my holy language so that you have woken me up.

00:15:21.191 --> 00:15:23.731
And I want to just know that I just thank you for your presence.

00:15:23.931 --> 00:15:28.051
And I just want to just hear your voice, but just know that I know that you're

00:15:28.051 --> 00:15:33.071
here, you know. So action itself is to sit in the silence, seek his presence

00:15:33.071 --> 00:15:38.451
and not answers and journal, journal your trust. Let's pray.

00:15:38.731 --> 00:15:41.851
Father, I thank you for meeting me in the silence.

00:15:42.011 --> 00:15:47.111
Even when I cannot hear or see you, I trust that you are near and working for my good.

00:15:47.511 --> 00:15:52.711
Teach me to embrace your silence as an act of faith, knowing that your timing is always perfect.

00:15:52.971 --> 00:15:58.051
Help me to wait with patience and expectation, resting in your unchanging love.

00:15:58.251 --> 00:16:00.071
Amen. Challenge for the week.

00:16:00.491 --> 00:16:04.571
Practice resting in God's silence this week. Each time you're tempted to question

00:16:04.571 --> 00:16:10.811
or fill the stillness with distraction, pause and remind yourself, God is here even now.

00:16:11.011 --> 00:16:16.931
Keep a journal of any moments where you feel His presence or sense His presence in unexpected ways.

00:16:17.091 --> 00:16:21.731
You know, as you are in like a relationship for a long time,

00:16:21.891 --> 00:16:24.771
or you really know someone, you can be with your best friend.

00:16:24.891 --> 00:16:28.751
Sometimes you can sit with your best friend and you guys don't have to say anything.

00:16:28.791 --> 00:16:31.091
You can just be together, right?

00:16:31.691 --> 00:16:36.491
And that's how God is. He just wants you to just learn how to be comfortable.

00:16:37.220 --> 00:16:43.420
In his presence. Not worry about what you say, what should I do, how should I move.

00:16:43.600 --> 00:16:45.940
We do too much of that performance.

00:16:46.280 --> 00:16:53.260
No performance. Just go ahead and just chill in the presence of the Lord. Amen.

00:16:53.660 --> 00:16:58.920
So if you've been blessed by this series so far, I'd love to just go ahead and

00:17:27.600 --> 00:17:31.460
As we close this episode of the Diary of a Black Woman podcast,

00:17:31.460 --> 00:17:35.920
we declare the word of the Lord from Jeremiah 29 11.

00:17:36.260 --> 00:17:39.740
I speak this over every listener. You'll rise again.

00:17:39.960 --> 00:17:44.680
You'll recover what was lost and you'll walk boldly into what God has prepared

00:17:44.680 --> 00:17:48.200
with no shame, no fear, and no apology.

00:17:48.620 --> 00:17:55.220
May every broken place become a place of breakthrough. May every delay become divine preparation.

00:17:55.580 --> 00:18:01.100
And may the fire of God stir up every gift lying dormant within you.

00:18:01.240 --> 00:18:02.720
This is more than a podcast.

00:18:03.200 --> 00:18:07.180
This is a call to arms. We're not just healing. We're rising.

00:18:07.460 --> 00:18:12.500
We're not just telling stories. We're building an army of women walking in truth,

00:18:12.660 --> 00:18:14.080
in power, and in purpose.

00:18:14.340 --> 00:18:18.860
