When God Seems Silent

Every believer faces moments when it feels like God isn’t speaking. In these seasons, doubt can creep in—but God’s silence has purpose. In this message, William Hunt shows us what God may be doing in the quiet:

• Testing our faith (Genesis 22:1–2) — revealing what’s genuine.

• Cultivating our hunger (Amos 8:11) — teaching us to long for His presence.

• Deepening our trust (Isaiah 30:15) — calling us to rest in Him.

• Still working (John 5:17; Psalm 121:4) — even when unseen.

Silence teaches us to trust without proof, to slow down and avoid impulsive moves, and to fix our focus on God. It builds endurance for the long road of faith. When God seems silent, examine your heart, stay faithful, remember His past faithfulness, and wait with hope. His silence is not rejection—it’s preparation.
