About this listen

Have you ever felt like God went quiet — like you’re doing all the right things, but Heaven has gone silent?
You’re not alone.

In this episode of Growing God’s Gifts, we dive into Elijah’s cave in 1 Kings 19 — a powerful story of burnout, fear, and divine recalibration. Through Scripture and Roma Waterman’s prophetic word From Jars of Clay to Megaphones of Glory (ElijahList.com), we’ll explore what God is really doing when you feel hidden, weary, or stuck in a waiting season.

You’ll discover:

  • Why God sometimes feels silent — and how to recognize when He’s simply changing frequencies.

  • How the “cave seasons” of life prepare you for breakthrough, not burnout.

  • What the whisper of God sounds like after the noise has faded.

If you’ve been asking, “Where is God in my silence?” this episode will help you slow down, tune in, and hear His voice again.

Episode Highlights

  • Elijah’s emotional crash after victory (1 Kings 19:1–18)

  • Why God speaks in the whisper, not the whirlwind

  • Understanding “the frequency of slow” — and why Heaven moves at a different pace

  • Roma Waterman’s prophetic vision of the empty chair — an invitation to stillness

  • Becoming a megaphone of glory after the breaking

  • Practical ways to hear God again: silence, journaling, and letting go of hurry

Key Quotes

“The cave was never about isolation — it was about recalibration.”
“God hasn’t gone silent. He’s just speaking on a different frequency.”

Scripture Reference

1 Kings 19:9–13 (NIV)

“After the fire came a gentle whisper... When Elijah heard it, he pulled his cloak over his face and went out and stood at the mouth of the cave.”

Reflection

If you feel like you’re in a silent season, remember:

    • The waiting isn’t wasted.
    • The silence isn’t punishment.
    • The cave is where God retunes your heart to His voice.
