My Encounter with God | Pastor Bill Sizemore | The Romans Road

What happens when the results we can see don’t match what we believe God has called us to do?

In Romans 11:1–10, Paul reminds us that God has not abandoned His people. Through the stories of Paul, Isaiah, and Elijah, we see a powerful pattern:

Encounter produces engagement, and engagement produces endurance.

First, we encounter the God who changes what we see. Then we engage the mission because we have heard His call. Finally, we endure because His presence becomes greater than the results we can see.

You can inherit someone else’s story of faith, but you cannot inherit their encounter with God. Eventually, you need your own “Jordan”—your own encounter with the Lord that changes the way you see everything else.

Maybe you feel like Elijah in the cave. Maybe disappointment, rejection, fatigue, or comparison has caused you to lose sight of what God is doing. The reminder is simple:

“His presence keeps me going.”

God may not show you the entire plan. He may simply remind you, “I am here.”

If He is still speaking, we are still listening.
If He is still calling, we are still going.
If He is still working, we are still serving.
