Transcripts
have you ever felt so lonely and alone
that you wondered why God wants you to
be alone it can be so frustrating not
knowing and even worse knowing that he
himself put you in this state and knows
exactly how you
feel Lewis says that God is always
working on us like a work of art a house
he is fixing everything that is out of
place and suddenly he brings changes
that can even be painful but necessary
so do not fear for he has placed you
exactly where you need to be at this
moment in your life friends and family
may have left you even those you never
thought could turn their backs on you
were the first to
withdraw probably everything happened so
fast and left a big void in you but take
heart because God created this void in
your heart that only he can fill Lewis
also says how God shouts in our pains to
wake us up perhaps to wake us up to
reality and show us his plans for us if
the loneliness feels painful now believe
me he never abandons us maybe all these
people came into your life just to
distance you from him and they kept you
in the dark all these
years so when life becomes meaningless
boring and difficult it is because we
are filling it with anything but him and
this void must be occupied by him and
only by him Matthew 6:33 says but seek
first the kingdom of God and his
righteousness and all these things will
be added to you in the Silence of the
heart God speaks and if you have God in
your prayer and silence God will still
speak to
you Revelation 3:20 he says behold I
stand at the door and knock if anyone
hears my voice and opens the door I will
come into him and eat with him and he
with me and then you will know that you
are nothing because it is only when you
realize your loneliness and
insignificance and your emptiness that
God can fill you with himself so let him
no person no possession no profession or
POS position can fill the cup of an
empty heart Philippians 4: 19 says my
God Will Supply every need of yours
according to his riches in glory in
Christ
Jesus only he can fill this void and
sometimes God takes you to these places
where it seems you are alone because he
simply wants to call you I want you to
know that you have not been forgotten I
want you to know know that you are not
alone as it says in Hebrews
13:5 I will never leave you or forsake
you I want you to know that he hears you
at some point in our lives we all
experience the feeling of being alone
being alone does not necessarily mean
being in an empty room with no one but
yourself because sometimes even when you
are in the company of others you still
feel that sense of loneliness and so one
of the revealing things about being a
Christian no matter how new the claim is
a new understanding and appreciation for
being
alone sometimes as Christians we have to
be alone sometimes we have to withdraw
from the crowd as Jesus did and commit
ourselves to the Lord in
prayer yes there is a time to have
fellowship with other believers but
there is also time to have fellowship
with our Lord feeling alone is a moment
when we can build a stronger
relationship with the Lord drawing
closer to him in prayer only God can
fill this void I want you to understand
that God wants you to talk to him as you
would with a friend and he would not
turn you away he calms us as it says in
1 Peter 5:7
casting all your anxieties on him
because he cares for you the peace God
gives us when our focus is on him is
inexplicable as it says in Philippians
4:7 and the peace of God which surpasses
all understanding will guard your hearts
and your minds in Christ
Jesus his peace makes you stop worrying
about everyone and everything else that
is bothering you he reminds us that he
loves us and that we should not worry
because he will take care of us and so
if we focus on God if we keep our focus
on God we will know and understand that
we are never alone as it says in Matthew
28:20 and behold I Am With You Always to
the end of the age and God is always
near and he is near now and God is
working in our lives for his purposes we
can trust him with all our hearts Romans
8 verse 28 confirms this by saying and
we know that in all things God works for
the good of those who love him who have
been called according to his purpose so
we never need to think that he is far
away because his holy presence goes
before us so close your eyes and take a
deep breath you can feel his presence
it is almost patience and now you
realize what you have taken for granted
and now you can fill those moments of
loneliness with the truth you can fill
them with the truth that you are
surrounded by the constant presence of
one the key is to know that you always
have this everpresent companion with you
and that is what he wants you to achieve
by making you feel lonely be encouraged
in the loving presence of your savior
knowing that he is always by your side a
characteristic of healthy and loving
marriages is that the husband and wife
see that they carve out their intimate
time alone and so even with a house full
of children and a revolving door of
guests they spend time together they
spend time loving each other and so is
the vibrant believer with our Lord one
Delight among others in the newborn
heart is to prioritize and create
Seasons to be alone with God to listen
to him in his word and respond in prayer
so remember the example the Savior gave
us in Matthew Chapter 14 verse
23 when he sent the crowd away he went
up on the mountain apart to pray and
when evening came he was there alone a
lonely day is God's way of saying he
wants to spend quality time with you so
you are never alone when you are alone
with God everything that is created
arises from silence your thoughts emerge
from the nothingness of silence your
mind arises from this emptiness and your
very essence emerges from the void but
in Isaiah 50:4 it says the Lord God has
given me the tongue of those who are
taught that I may know how to sustain
with a word him who is weary morning by
morning he awakens he awakens my ear to
hear as those who are
taught now all this creativity requires
some form of quiet or another and so
your goals and Ambitions May draw you
away from others and you may need to be
alone to silence them and so God wants
you to achieve your goals so he wants
you to be alone it is much better to be
alone than to be with those who hinder
your progress it is often said that if
you want to go fast go alone and if you
want to go far go together so God may be
in the fast and alone God realizes this
God realizes that for you to go alone
you need to go light and fast so if you
find yourself alone you will have a
better understanding of this and feel
less lonely God is trying to build a
sense of Independence although not
independence from him but independence
from man as it says in Jeremiah
17:5 cursed is the man who trusts in man
and makes flesh his strength whose heart
turns away from the
Lord and so every time you trust in man
don't you see that it fails every time
you trusted that man every time you
trust usted that woman every time you
trusted that boy or girl what did it
bring you it brought you disappointment
after
disappointment it let you down so
please trust in God as it says in
Proverbs
3:5 trust in the Lord with all your
heart and do not lean on your own
understanding that is the main reason
why he wants you to be alone that is the
main reason why the things you tried
didn't work out that is the main reason
why the person you trusted let you down
that is the main reason why it seemed
everything was going right but then
something went wrong and you parted ways
that man you thought you couldn't live
without that woman you thought you
couldn't live without finally left you
she left you he left you that job you
thought was your life you were fired
from it well guess what you are still
alive in Psalm
145:14 it says the Lord upholds all who
are falling and raises up all who are
bowed down so if God wants you to be
alone he wants to birth something in you
these periods of loneliness are the best
periods in a man's life believe it or
not they are the moments when you really
do a soul search Jesus loved quiet time
in Luke
5:16 but Jesus often withdrew to lonely
places and prayed he loved the quiet and
solitary time he loved those moments
when man could communicate with his
lover and his God so please and
please God is taking people out of your
life if you see that people are leaving
you
unnecessarily and you know there is
nothing wrong WR on your
part just keep in mind that God is
trying to separate you from them in 2
Corinthians 6 verse 17 therefore go out
from their midst and be separate from
them says the Lord and touch no unclean
thing then I will welcome you the Bible
says go out from their midst and be
separate God is trying to make you
different something that is different
can be despised but at some point
what is being despised will be honored
as it says in James
4 verse 10 humble yourselves before the
Lord and He will exalt you so God is
trying to prepare you for Honor now
let's go to a moment of prayer so he can
hear our hearts Lord God In This Moment
of loneliness I come before you in
prayer I know that you have placed me
exactly where I need to be in this fa
days of my life help me to understand
that this void in my heart can only be
filled by you and no one else even when
friends and family withdraw I trust that
you are always by my side give me
strength to see your guiding hand in my
life even in moments of darkness and
uncertainty teach me to seek you in
prayer and to feel your comforting
presence help me not to depend on men
but to place my total trust in you
knowing that you will never disappoint
me Lord fill the void in my heart with
your peace love and joy may I find joy
in your presence and comfort in your
constant love help me to see these
moments of loneliness as opportunities
to grow closer to you and strengthen my
faith thank you Lord for never
abandoning me and for always being
present even when I feel alone may I
feel your presence in every moment and
be reminded that you are with me until
the end of time in Jesus's name I pray
amen thank you very much for watching
until the end and participating in this
prayer when you feel lonely know that
God is separating you for something
great so do not feel lonely do not feel
depressed God is on the throne so let
him fill that space and let him grow in
you let him occupy more let him occupy
more and more spaces in you and remember
that this God is a great God I see you
coming out stronger I see you building
Kingdom relationships even as you let go
and let God God bless you
