Podcasts about god who sees

Have you ever felt unseen, overlooked, or forgotten? Whether it’s being passed over for a promotion, ignored by a loved one, or simply feeling insignificant in a crowded world, invisibility can wound deeply. But God reminds us through His Word that He sees us completely and intimately. Just as Hagar declared in Genesis 16:13: “You are the God who sees me,” we too can take comfort knowing our Creator never overlooks us. He formed us with intention, wrote every one of our days before we lived them, and keeps us always in His sight. If you’re wrestling with feelings of being invisible, this prayer will guide you back to the truth that you are known, loved, and chosen by the God who sees all. Main Takeaways Everyone feels invisible at some point, but God’s Word assures us we are always seen by Him. Psalm 139:13-18 reminds us we are “fearfully and wonderfully made” and deeply known. When others overlook us, God still chooses us and values us beyond measure. Leaning on Scripture equips us with truth to battle discouragement and feelings of insignificance. Bible Verse References Genesis 16:13 – “You are the God who sees me.” Psalm 139:13-18 – A reminder of God’s intimate knowledge and design of our lives. Isaiah 49:15 – God promises He will never forget us. Calls to Action (CTAs) Subscribe to Your Daily Prayer to receive daily encouragement rooted in God’s Word.

Text: Genesis 16   The Faithless Acts of Abram and Sarai (Gen. 16:1-6) They questioned God's ability to fulfill His promises. They chose to circumvent God's plan by acting in unbelief. Their faithless acts led to family chaos and generational conflict.   The Faithful Presence of the God Who Sees (Gen. 16:7-16) The pre-incarnate Christ sees Hagar in her affliction. The pre-incarnate Christ brings comfort and blessing to Hagar. Christ sees us, knows our need, and can satisfy our hearts (John 4).

Have you ever felt like you are alone is this life, or that God was far from you? Let's explore El Roi or the God that sees us.   Guest sermon by Tamra Schneider

God sees it all. The good, the bad, even what we try to hide. But here's the hope: the same God who sees everything still calls us forward.

In this second message of our new series, "What's in a Name?", Associate Pastor Ezemdi Chikwendu shares how God reveals Himself as El Roi (the God who sees) and El Shaddai (God Almighty) through His faithful care for both the prominent and marginalized figures in Scripture. We hear that He intimately knows and provides for all His children. Through the story of Abraham, Sarah, and Hagar, we see how God's covenant promises extend across generations, ultimately pointing to Jesus Christ and including all who put their faith in Him. Just as Pastor Ezemdi experienced God's sovereign guidance and provision in his own journey, God invites each of us today to trust Him as our Lord, knowing that He sees us, understands our struggles, and stands ready to show Himself mighty on our behalf.

Genesis 16:1-16

How It Started: The God Who Sees (Part 15). Genesis 16:1-16. In today's passage things seem to completely fall apart. Is there any way to repair the mess that's been made? Can we find hope in the God who sees it all?

I am using readings from the 49 Week Bible Challenge as the basis for these devotions. I encourage you to join me in this discipline. Today's readings are Matthew 22; Exodus 3; Psalm 64; 1 Kings 5.

Have you ever been promised something and then been betrayed? Or do you feel alone and unseen? Hagar was left and abandoned by Abraham and Sarah. This week, we will study and learn how God's faithfulness to Hagar is a lesson that God does not abandon His children.Downey Adventist Church SermonEl Roi: The God Who Sees MeThe Names of God part II seriesby Chris Famisaran26 July 2025www.downeychurch.org

Throughout the Old Testament, God reveals himself by various names, each revealing a new aspect of His character. One of them is only used once, but there is much to learn about the name “El Roi.”

In this message from our Summer Tour series, Ren Richardson tackles one of the Bible's most difficult questions: How can a just God bring such devastating judgment? Through the story of Hagar, the widow's offering, and God's heart for the vulnerable, we discover that His justice flows from His deep love and grace. Join us as we explore how the God who sees everything also defends those no one else sees.

God sees, knows, and loves us personally - even in our darkest thoughts or moments.

Genesis 16:1-14John 4:7-14

This week, Jess Ninaber continues our Names of God series with a message on El Roi—the God who sees. Through the story of Hagar, we are reminded that God sees us fully, even in our most painful and overlooked moments. He is not passive or distant but the God who actively pursues, provides, and restores. El Roi meets us in the wilderness, calls us by name, and dignifies us with His love. As we begin to see the way He sees, we are empowered to see others with the same compassion and to recognize what He is doing in our own wilderness seasons.

She was useful until she was not. She was a victim of abuse and mistreatment. She was an abandoned outsider of God's covenant people. In this episode of Breaking Bread, Kaleb Beyer and Matt Kaufmann linger on Hagar's story. At her most desperate moment, God loves her really well. So struck by the encounter, Hagar names God Elroi, the God who sees me.  Show notes:  In her desperation, God finds Hagar abandoned to the wilderness.  He calls her by name - “Hagar.”  Even though her name meant “stranger”, his use of it meant she was not a stranger to him. In fact, she was known, not by association, but on her own terms.  He asks her questions - “Where did you come from and where are you going?”  Even though he knew these answers already, he gets her talking. God is a God who listens.  He gives her a promise - “I will make a mighty nation out of your son.”  Even though Ishmael's lineage would rival Isaac's, he is a God of blessing. 

In a story full of brokenness, injustice, and pain, the encounter between Hagar and God in the wilderness reveals a profound truth: God hears and God sees. Though Hagar was mistreated, forgotten, and cast out, the LORD met her personally, named her child, and gave her hope. This same God still sees us in our wilderness moments and opens our eyes to His provision and presence.

A new MP3 sermon from Trinity Bible Church is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: The God Who Sees Subtitle: Genesis Series Speaker: Dr. Greg Mazak Broadcaster: Trinity Bible Church Event: Sunday Service Date: 6/29/2025 Bible: Genesis 16 Length: 55 min.

In this heartfelt message, we explore the story of Hagar in Genesis 16—a woman who felt cast aside, unseen, and forgotten. But in the wilderness, she encounters the God who sees.We're honored to share a powerful testimony from Callie, a member of our church family, whose story echoes Hagar's in profound ways. From a childhood marked by trauma and instability to multiple marriages, heartbreak, single motherhood, and ultimately a breast cancer diagnosis—Callie's journey is one of resilience, redemption, and the relentless love of God.Through it all, she found healing, forgiveness, and a deep understanding of El Roi, “the God who sees me.” Her story is not just about surviving—it's about transformation, surrender, and discovering purpose in the pain.Whether you're in a season of wandering, fear, or fighting your own battles, this message is for you. God sees you. He knows your story. And He's not done with you.

The God Who Sees Us | Waiting on God's Promise What do you do when God gives a promise… but the waiting feels endless? In Genesis 16, Sarai takes control, Abram stays silent, and Hagar runs—but even in the chaos, God shows up. He is El Roi—the God who sees us. In this powerful sermon, Pastor Harrison unpacks the tension of waiting, the temptation to control outcomes, and the truth that God sees you in the middle of it all.

Machias Community Church The God Who Sees Me GENESIS 16:7-16 TIM HENLE, CHURCH FAMILY ELDER WHO ALSO PREACHES

In Genesis 16, the name by which God reveals himself is El-Roi, the God who sees me. This name of God's teaches us that the He is good, filled with compassion and pursues the outcast.

As we continue our journey through the Gospel of Mark, we've seen Jesus reveal His divine identity through jaw-dropping miracles—calming storms, forgiving sins, and feeding thousands with just a few loaves and fish. Yet, the disciples who witnessed these wonders firsthand still struggled to grasp who Jesus truly is. Sound familiar? It should. Mark has repeatedly shown us the theme of Jesus' identity and the people's inability to understand. This Sunday, we'll explore Mark 6:45-56, where Jesus sends His disciples into a stormy sea on their own while He prays on a mountain. They struggle against the wind and feel abandoned when something extraordinary happens. Jesus does what only God can do and comes to them walking on the sea. Jesus "passes by," revealing His name just as God did in the Old Testament before Moses. What Jesus does in this moment leaves the disciples astounded yet still confused. Verse 52 tells us they were astounded at Jesus' coming because "they did not understand about the loaves." They should have understood who Jesus is from the feeding of the 5000. How can Jesus' identity ground us when life's storms make us feel like we're rowing against an impossible current? Why does Mark repeatedly point us to who Jesus is? Join us as we explore how Jesus meets us in our struggles and why knowing Him as God in the flesh is the deepest truth we need, now and always. I. Jesus Is El Roi, The God Who Sees (v. 45-48a) II. Jesus Is Jehovah Sammah, The Lord Who Is There (v. 48b-52) III. Jesus Is Jehovah Rapha, The Lord Who Heals (v. 53-56)

In our study in Genesis, we're studying God's revelation of himself through his names. God is teaching us in the life of Abram and Sarai, that all salvation comes from God. In Genesis 16 we learn that God is a God of compassion. He sees two women in their suffering, Sarai and Hagar, and he has compassion on them.

This Sunday, Pastor Chris continued our summer series The Names of God with a message on El Roi — The God Who Sees Me. Teaching from Genesis 16:1–16, we explored the beauty and power of a God who sees us in our pain, meets us in our suffering, and responds with compassion and purpose.

This week, Diane Spencer brought such a beautiful message about motherhood and being seen by God. Through the examples of women in the scriptures, we were pointed to times where women who were otherwise unseen were valued and validated by God. Hagar, Hannah, and Mary show us that we are important to Him, and even when our circumstances are difficult, He cares. Whether it is a season of longing, loneliness, or despair, the Lord is with us and loves us right where we are.
