Podcasts about The Revealer

When life suddenly feels unclear and the path you’ve been walking seems to disappear beneath your feet, it’s easy to assume something has gone wrong. But Ecclesiastes 3:11 reminds us that God is always at work—even when our view is obstructed. Sometimes confusion isn’t a setback; it’s a signal that God is shifting your direction, preparing new ground, or ushering you into a fresh season. What looks like disorientation may actually be His gentle nudge to lift your eyes, trust Him again, and follow where He’s leading next. Highlights Confusion can be a sign of transition, not failure. God often uses unexpected moments to redirect our steps. Old paths may fade so new ones can form. What feels like “lost” may actually be God’s protection or preparation. Faith invites us to walk even when visibility is low. Seasonal shifts in life often require new vision and fresh trust. Scripture realigns our perspective when we can’t see the way forward.

Full Transcript Below: Confusion May Signal a God-TransitionBy Kelly Balarie Bible Reading:“Yet God has made everything beautiful for its own time. He has planted eternity in the human heart, but even so, people cannot see the whole scope of God’s work from beginning to end.”– Ecclesiastes 3:11 NLT God is so creative.Ever notice how He uses the most unusual things to teach us the lessons we need to know? It happened to me today... Taking a hike, I headed deep into the woods, leaves crunching underfoot. I kept my eyes alert, knowing I needed to take note of landmarks if I wanted to safely return to my car. You know how it is — it’s easy to quickly head somewhere without even realizing how you got there in the first place. That couldn’t happen; I wanted to make it home safely. At first, seeing my path was easy — that is, until it wasn’t. What used to be visible gray ground had disappeared. Now, pine needles covered my path. And confusion set in... Was I going right — toward that tall tree? Straight — toward no trees? Or left — toward a tree stump? I wasn’t so sure. Have you ever been there? Going a certain way only to suddenly experience confusion? Disillusionment? Maybe you were headed somewhere with God, only to be obstructed...Maybe you thought you were on the right path until you ran into something... This can feel discouraging and disorienting. It can happen in marriages, jobs, joys, hobbies, friendships, vision, or calling. All the same, it becomes wearying to be on a path you thought was right — only to feel lost. That’s how I felt — for a second — lost. But as I lifted my head and looked yards ahead, I saw it. There! The path. I was safe — yet again. However, those path-covering pine needles got me thinking... How did they get there to begin with? I figured they arrived one of two ways: The wind blew them there. The new season of Fall placed them there. Some of us today need to know that our confusion isn’t just about disorientation — it may be about God providing us with a new direction. And sometimes what covers the old path is actually preparing the ground for a new path. When the winds of God come, though they displace things, it can be a very good thing. It is His repositioning. It is His moving. Yes, it’s true — what we once knew can look different or even disappear. But this doesn’t mean it won’t be good. Even if we can’t see, by faith, we can still walk — trusting Him. Likewise, confusion may signal a progression into a new season. The paths we knew in the old season may not suffice in a new one, which is why seeing can be hard. The pine needles of Summer must fall to make way for Fall. We can’t hold on to what was and still step into the beautiful potential of what can be. Plus, the falling is part of the seeding of new ground. Did you know that pine needles prepare the soil and they save the path from weeds? In our not seeing, there is also God protecting us in the process of shifting seasons.So, what do we do when we find ourselves here? We readjust. We ask God if He has something new for us. We discern if He wants us to change course, change jobs, change relationships — or simply press through. Either way, we take a time-out with the Lord to listen and discern. “Yet God has made everything beautiful for its own time. He has planted eternity in the human heart, but even so, people cannot see the whole scope of God’s work from beginning to end.”(Ecclesiastes 3:11, NLT) There is a time for everything — and sometimes, there is a time when God adjusts our vision so we can walk in a new direction. If He is doing this in your life, be encouraged: He is not doing this to hurt you, but to guide you. Intersecting Faith & Life: Have you ever headed somewhere with the wrong directions? It’s frustrating, isn’t it? A left turn should have been a right turn. Ten minutes turns into twenty. We all know this: when going the wrong way, it is essential to get back on track. Part of getting back on track is to get a map. The Word of God is our map. Jesus is our Sure-Guide. Father cares. Holy Spirit is the Revealer. If you feel off track, how about you get on your knees? How about you ask God to reveal to you what He is doing and how He is guiding you? How about you keep your eyes and ears open to how He may respond?

“Healthy theology affirms the spiritual realm without obsessing over it. Faith keeps us grounded when the unseen feels overwhelming.” In Daniel 10, the curtain between heaven and earth is pulled back, revealing an unseen world of spiritual activity. As Daniel receives a new vision and encounters a radiant messenger, we’re reminded that God’s purposes are unfolding even when we can’t see them. Nicole Unice explores what Scripture teaches about the spiritual realm—what’s revealed, what’s mysterious, and how believers can live anchored in confidence rather than fear. She balances two extremes: over-focusing on spiritual warfare or dismissing it altogether. The episode draws out timeless truths about prayer, unseen realities, and the sovereignty of God that will carry into Daniel 11 and 12. Main Takeaways There is an unseen realm: Both Old and New Testaments affirm that invisible realities exist (see Ephesians 6:12, Colossians 1:16, Hebrews 1:14). God hears our prayers—even when we can’t see results. The angel tells Daniel his prayer was heard immediately, though the answer was delayed by spiritual resistance (Daniel 10:12–13). Healthy theology stays balanced. We recognize the spiritual realm without obsessing over it. Faith, prayer, and Scripture keep us grounded. Revelation points to the Revealer. The focus is not on angels or visions but on the God who reveals Himself and strengthens His people. Trust closes the gap between prayer and response. Faith bridges the unseen—God’s timing and sovereignty are trustworthy even when unseen battles rage. Bible Verse References: Daniel 10:12–13 — God hears Daniel’s prayer. Ephesians 6:12 — Our struggle is not against flesh and blood. Hebrews 1:14 — Angels are ministering spirits sent to serve believers. Colossians 1:16 — All things, visible and invisible, are created through Christ. Psalm 139:16 — All our days are written in God’s book.

We continue our study of the book of Mark with the message "Jesus is the Revealer of God's Kingdom," in which we learn how Jesus used parables (stories) to explain God's kingdom to people with little understanding.  

This week in worship, Pastor David continues in the book of Daniel as we find Daniel interpreting dreams, not because he had the ability to do so, but because he asked God to give him the knowledge. He believed in God's ability to do the seemingly impossible. When we are faced with something that seems like it can't be done, do we turn to God in prayer or try to rely on our own abilities? Let's see what we can learn from Daniel this week about the supernatural power of God.

8/3/25-Dr. Phillip Burden-Jesus the Revealer of Truth by Sermons from FBCOzark

Pastor Richard shows us that God reveals our hearts, and also His own heart, so that we can follow Him and do what he wants in our lives.

We're happy to share In Bed With the Right's latest episode.

In this weeks Q&A we discuss questions about specific application of living in loving consideration of those whose conscience differ from ours.

Pastor Richard shows us that God loves us, knows our hearts, and will guide us to Himself. We shouldn't "help" Him figure out how to correct our hearts, just let Him guide you and work on you.

What if God's truth isn't hidden—but waiting to be heard? Jesus reveals the kingdom through parables, inviting those who are willing to truly listen. His words take root in receptive hearts, growing quietly but powerfully. Disciples don't just hear—they respond. The journey of faith calls us from curiosity to commitment, shaping our lives through attentive obedience to His voice.⚫CONNECT WITH US:

In This weeks Q&A we answer questions about temptation and the confusion resulting from professing believers not living righteous lives.

Join Pastor Mike Burchfield as he continues his series, Jesus Christ: Perfect Man - Mighty God. This Sunday he will be discussing: Jesus Christ - The Revealer of Hearts Luke 2:25-35. "And Simeon blessed them and said to Mary his mother, “Behold, this child is appointed for the fall and rising of many in Israel, and for a sign that is opposed (and a sword will pierce through your own soul also), so that thoughts from many hearts may be revealed.”

In this opening message of our June series, we step into a powerful rediscovery of the person, power, and presence of the Holy Spirit. Far from a mysterious force or an abstract idea, Holy Spirit is the third person of the Trinity—eternal, intelligent, emotional, and deeply personal. Using Jesus' own words in John 16, we're introduced to the Spirit as our Advocate, Comforter, and Revealer. He's not an “it”, but a “He”—the very mind and heart of God made present and active in our lives. Holy Spirit is not here to confuse or conceal, but to guide, clarify, empower, and uncover the hidden treasures of the Kingdom already given to us in Christ. This episode will stir your faith to not just learn about Holy Spirit—but to encounter Him. From the Scriptures to your quiet time, in worship or even standing in line at Starbucks, He is speaking. The question is: Are you listening? Prepare for a fresh unveiling of spiritual truth as we allow the Author of Scripture to illuminate the mysteries of grace, truth, and your divine inheritance.

What does Bible study look like after inerrancy? Do you have to give up studying Scripture when you no longer believe in its literal interpretation? Can you still believe this book is sacred even while renegotiating your relationship to the church? In Knock at the Sky: Seeking God in Genesis after Losing Faith in the Bible, Liz Charlotte Grant offers compelling answers to these questions and more in this deeply personal commentary on the book of Genesis. Braiding together encounters with the natural world, Jewish midrash, and art criticism, Grant makes familiar Sunday school stories strange and offers a fresh vision for reading Scripture after deconstruction. For those who have known the book of Genesis as a weapon in the culture wars, Grant interprets the Bible's inspired book of beginnings as a work of art. Lyrical, insightful, and highly original, Knock at the Sky offers readers a capacious model for seeking God through Scripture even as one's faith continues to evolve. “In this book, you too have permission to question the sacred without fearing . . . unbelief. Knock loudly. . . . Reject answers that do not admit complication. Seek the resonance at the base of the story. The seeking is the point. Because there, in your wandering, God is.” About the Author Liz Charlotte Grant is an award-winning essayist whose work has been published in The Revealer, Sojourners, Brevity, Christian Century, Christianity Today, Hippocampus, and elsewhere. She also writes The Empathy List, a popular newsletter that has been nominated for a Webby two years running. She lives in Colorado.
