When catastrophe strikes, where do you find comfort? In this message, Pastor Bob Erbig continues our Ruin to Redemption series through Isaiah with a powerful look at Isaiah 40:1–31 — “Comfort in Catastrophe.” From Hezekiah's indifference to Judah's exile, we see how God meets His people in their lowest moments, offering comfort, strength, and renewal. Discover four truths that anchor the soul when storms hit: God comforts His people, reigns over creation, calls us by name, and provides certainty in chaos.Whether you're in the middle of a storm or waiting for one to pass, this message reminds us that those who wait on the Lord will renew their strength.November 2, 2025

Christians, real Christians, know and understand salvation, the incredible salvation experience, when they have met and believed in Jesus Christ.Real Christians know the experience of forgiveness of sin, the soul and character-changing encounter with the crucifixion, the body and blood of our Lord.Real Christians know how important, vital and life-changing PRAYER is, communion with God Almighty every day.Real Christians study Scripture, the Bible, Old and New Testaments, to learn, to grow, and to show themselves approved unto God work men and women who are never ashamed of the Gospel and their incredible spiritual experiences.Real Christians grow, understand, and are thrilled with the challenges and opportunities of THE JOURNEY OF LIFE.But even real Christians may not know the necessity, the meaning of this extremely important Biblical command:I WILL MEDITATE ON YOUR PRECEPTS. (TEACHINGS, COMMANDMENTS, LAWS, AND GRACE, AMONG OTHERS)Of all the Christians verities, the marvelous act of meditation may be the one most misunderstood or neglected. But Psalm 119:15 implores us to never forget to meditate daily, DAILY! There is no day too busy not to take time to:MEDITATE ON HIS PRECEPTS.Meditation, real meditation, as the process begins, is difficult. For some, it is very difficult. It requires an environment of:COMPLETE QUIET.Spurgeon urges and indicates that meditation, real meditation, can only occur when one enters the so-called CLOSET where there is complete quiet, perhaps darkness, an environment without distraction, noise, and certainly other people. There is an environment where one is alone and only with the company of THE HOLY SPIRIT, and with the presence of our Lord. It becomes the perfect QUIET TIME, away from everyone and everything.It is in that precious environment of SOLITUDE AND SILENCE that one, that every true Christian believer, can really hear and absorb the presence of:THE HOLY SPIRIT.It is only there that this indispensable CHRISTIAN HELPER and Comforter can make His presence known.It is only in that quiet time that real Christian growth and especially understanding of the mysteries of the Gospel can be revealed. It is only there, in the closet, that there can occur the work of the Holy Spirit which includes:ILLUMINTATIONENLIGHTENMENTINSTRUCTIONSINTERPRETATIONINSPIRATIONThose incredible spiritual experiences can only occur when the believer is completely open, and then the Spirit bear's witness. The mind stands still, a tabula rasa readiness (a completely open and empty mind). All worldly thoughts are postponed, the heart opens wide, and the believer signals ready for the working of the Holy Spirit. Nothing is more difficult, but nothing is more worthwhile, NOTHING!Then one begins the next process, difficult, but necessary and oh-so-valuable, that completely open time when the believer:WAITS ON THE LORD.There is no agenda. The believer brings nothing spiritually or mentally into the closet but lays the soul bare before the Lord and waits, WAITS, on the Lord and the coming of the Holy Spirit. To understand the value, to learn patience, to learn how to wait, to empty the mind, and no matter how intellectual, really learn the deep, mysterious, and incredible truths of the Gospel. It is a discipline which takes time, practice, and constant experimentation. But no Christian experience is complete unless a believer learns how to practice and derive the benefits of:MEDITATION.And the incredible strengthening process of:WAITING ON THE LORD.Done right, then comes the work of the Holy Spirit. That work illuminates, educates, instructs, and, perhaps most importantly, interprets and inspires every believer, like nothing else and no other experience can. Meditation is the process of deep and rich:SPIRITUAL DIGESTION.The meditation experience alone can produce those rich and vital spiritual vitamins, the most important spiritual digestion of anything in the Christian journey.It takes time, quality time, daily time, no day is too busy to set aside quality time for the partnership and the workings of the Holy Spirit in meditation. There is no believer or any day which can not provide:30 MINUTESor more of quality time all alone IN THE CLOSET with the Holy Spirit. If a Christian sincerely wishes to grow in the things of the Gospel and our Lord, the goal should be the setting aside of that quality time, perhaps a minimum of 30 minutes:EVERY DAY.Then, a believer can rightly ASK, and, in that environment, there comes the Scriptural promise that such asking will be answered:ASK AND YOU WILL RECEIVE THE ANSWERS.Meditation, real meditation, is not easy. It takes practice, time, trial and error, and patience, careful love, and patience in this cell phone age. But there is no spiritual experience, Christian experience, in the journey of faith, which is more worthwhile or more necessary if one, any believer, no matter how busy, sincerely desires to experience in this life all that our Lord and the Holy Spirit has promised to all true believers. As with prayer and thanksgiving, MEDITATION should be an essential part of the Christian journey and experience:EVERY DAY!

There are a lot of times in life when we are waiting. Waiting to make decisions, waiting on answers to prayer, and waiting for big life moments. The word “waiting” carries with it the connotation of inaction, however Biblical waiting is quite the opposite. From the story of David, we can learn through his season of waiting in the wilderness. We will discover three questions we can ask regularly to encourage us during our seasons of waiting.

In this sermon, we are considering what to do when God has not said “yes,” and He has not said “no.” He's just said… “Wait.” And it is in that place—that long, painful, uncertain place—that Isaiah 40 speaks with such tenderness, such hope, and such power. You see, if we are honest—we all hate to wait. We hate it because waiting reminds us we are not in control. And we like control, don't we? We like plans. We like progress. We like seeing the next step. We like speed. But then life hits the brakes, and we hit a wall. And we find ourselves in that painful, confusing, in-between space—the space where God has not said “yes,” but He has not said “no” either. He's just said… “Wait.” And the truth is—we do not know what to do with that.

Today, Ethan Bricker spoke to us about the importance of waiting on the Lord. He explores Isaiah 40, Psalm 23, and Matthew 11, and how they all point to the solution to our weary hearts. Waiting is practicing trust and rest at the same time. It's an exercise of Shabbat and Faith working together at the same time in trust that God will renew the strength we need. As Ethan says, "Waiting is love on the way." it is when we anticipate the love of God seeking us out and transforming our weariness into glad strength. For more information regarding The Clearing Church, visit our website by clicking hereFollow us on Instagram today by clicking hereWatch the message on our YouTube channel here

Ps 27 continues with David concluding his confident declaration of faith (v1-6), saying: “And now my head shall be lifted up (in honour) above my enemies all around me” (v6a). God will exalt him to be king (v5). If we exalt Him in worship, He'll exalt us. Time in worship gives us confidence in God's protection & hope for the future. He sees beyond the present to God's victory, when he'll praise God with His people, thanking Him for manifested victory: “Therefore, I will offer sacrifices of joy in His Tabernacle; I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the Lord” (v6b). God gave him victory over the immediate threat (v1-6), but he had to endure a hardness for 8 years, in constant danger & need for His help, so now he moves to humble entreaty for ongoing favour & deliverance (v7-12). Knowing himself as weak & sinful, dependent on God, he doesn't presume on His blessing, but urgently asks for continuing mercy & grace. v7: “Hear, O Lord, when I cry with my voice! Have mercy also on me, and answer me” (v7). Due to the wait time between promise & fulfilment, he battles negative thoughts of fear & condemnation. But as a worshipper (v4-6), rather than giving into fears, he gives them to God in prayer (v7-12) & comes into assurance (v13). “When You said: “SEEK My FACE (Presence)!” My HEART said to You: “Your FACE (Presence), Lord, I WILL SEEK” (v8). He reminds God, He initiated this relationship by inviting him to seek Him. This is God's command to all, for the first ‘seek' is plural. He graciously invites all to seek & find Him, to know Him personally. True prayer is our response to His gracious initiative. He reminds God he did respond by setting his will (heart) to seek & know Him. So, he was sure he'd find Him, for God reveals Himself & blesses all who seek Him (Deut 4:29, Jer 29:13, Matt 7:7). Those who don't find God have not set their heart to seek to know Him. Saying: “I WILL seek” shows intentionality. He was a man (who sought) after God's heart (v4, 1Sam 13:14, Acts 13:22). We need to pay attention to God, if we want Him to pay attention to us (hear our prayers). He realises he's not perfect & deserves condemnation, so has to deal with negative accusing thoughts, which he does in prayer: “Do not hide Your FACE from me, do not turn Your servant away in anger” (v9a). When His face shines on us, He's gracious toward us, but if He hides His face, He's displeased, and we need to confess our sin & turn back to Him. “You have been my help (in the past, so); do not leave (abandon) me (now) nor forsake me (in my time of need), O God of my salvation” (v9b). In his weakness, he abandons himself to God, expressing total dependence on Him. This is how to handle inner fears - bring them to God. When you sin don't run from God, but to God. He's the God of your salvation. Despite our failings, if we seek Him (v8), He'll not hide His face from us (v9). He knew God as His Saviour (v9) & perfect Parent: “When (even if) my father and my mother forsake me, then the Lord will take care of me (receive, gather me up as a father lifts up his son & provides for him)” (v10). Even if our strongest relationships fail, God will not forsake us. He has that assurance, for God is what every parent should be (merciful, faithful, loving & forgiving). Having spent face to face time with God, he now prays for guidance, to walk in His will: “(1) TEACH me Your WAY, O Lord, and (2) LEAD me in a smooth (straight, level) path, because of my enemies (lit: watchful foes, looking for him to go wrong & take advantage)” (v11). (1) We need to know the WAY and (2) be LED step by step in it. “Do not deliver me to the will (desire) of my adversaries (v3, including demons); for false witnesses have risen against me, and such as breathe out (threats & acts of) violence.” Having faced his inner fears, he prayed through into the light of assurance: “I would have lost heart, UNLESS I had (firmly) BELIEVED that I would SEE (look steadfastly on, as in v4) the (manifest) goodness (promised provision) of the Lord in the land of the living (in this life)” (v13). Thus, it finishes as it starts with confidence God's plan will come to pass (he'll be king). If we look on the Lord in worship (v4) & wait on Him in faith (v14), His glory will change us and bring God's will to pass in our life. v14: “WAIT (in FAITH) on (set your HOPE on) the Lord; be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart. WAIT, I say, on the Lord!” WAIT is repeated for emphasis. He speaks to himself, then us. YLT: “LOOK to Jehovah, be STRONG, and He will STRENGTHEN your HEART, yea, LOOK to Jehovah!” When God promises, its time of fulfilment is in His hands. Sometimes there's a delay, as with David. The danger is to lose heart. So, in this time, we must stand strong in faith, believing He'll bring it to pass. Wait patiently & expectantly in faith for Him, looking to Him for directions. Then His Spirit strengthens, encourages, enlightens our heart & empowers us to obey (v14).

#182// You have to make the decision that you're going to STAND in your faith, Sis! That's the GRIT that'll position you to receive the GRACE of God for your life.Did you know that walking out the purpose of your life is going to take both grit AND grace? If you want to be positioned to receive the grace, you're going to have to stand with grit. You're going to have to make a decision that -- no matter where you started or what you had in your hands to begin with -- God can get you what you need, when you need it, so you can prosper fully in your purpose, Amen!Sometimes we get to a place where we're not seeing the promise come to pass... we're not seeing the "thing" manifesting in our world. This is often because we're just "waiting for the grace to fall," but we haven't positioned ourselves in the grit (the faith with works) that will actually bring the thing to fruition.Have you just been hoping for the grace of God to fall so that you can finally do the thing you feel like you were called to do? If so, it's okay to decide that now is the time to lean in and take active steps so you can have a different experience in your world. That's why on this week's episode, I'm sharing the message that I released at a recent Jesus Girl Gang's Ministry Night: Grit + Grace.If you're a Jesus girl who's got it in her heart to truly move in the grace of God as you build big and beautiful things with and for Him here in the earth, but you haven't experienced the grace that helps you to flow in that way, then this episode is for you, Sister. You need to know in the depths of you that God will flow His grace in and through you as you couple your faith with the grit of God! If you need a little help walking in both grace AND grit... Grab your Bible, your journal and a pen, and . . . Let's Go!LISTEN WITH THE SHOW NOTES: Head over to ericapyle.com/182 to grab the show notes which include the scriptures mentioned in the episode as well as links to resources and tools to help you apply the session to your life this week!LET'S STAY CONNECTED, SISTER!
