El Roi: The God Who Sees You - He Sees You in Your Consecration

El Roi: The God Who Sees You - He Sees You in Your Consecration

Have you been faithful and still feel like God is silent? In this episode of The Abiding Devotional Podcast, we’re diving into Luke 1:5–23 and the story of Zechariah and Elizabeth — two people the Bible calls righteous and blameless, who still waited decades for their breakthrough. Through their story, we encounter El Roi: the God who sees you, even in your most hidden and unnoticed acts of obedience. We talk about: — What it really means to live a consecrated life (hint: it’s not about rules) — Why seasons of barrenness don’t mean God has abandoned you — How El Roi sees your hidden faithfulness — even when no one else does — Why consecration is a personal surrender, not a public campaign Whether you’re in a long season of waiting or learning what it means to live set apart, this episode is for you.

My El Roi Moment: Symone’s Story of Suicide, Silence, and Being Found

She grew up in the church. She walked away. She hit rock bottom. And in her darkest moment — God still saw her.   In this episode, I sit down with Symone Dunlap — founder of SymoneTalks, certified confidence and life coach, and mental health advocate — as she shares her raw and redemptive El Roi moment. Symone opens up about depression, sexual assault, and a suicide attempt that nearly took her life. But God saw her, covered her, and sent someone to bring her back.   Symone shares how she found healing through the Word of God, why silence is one of the enemy’s greatest weapons, and what it truly means to be seen by a God who notices what others overlook.   “Death and life are in the power of the tongue.” — Proverbs 18:21   If you have ever felt invisible or like there is no way out — this episode is for you. God sees you. Even now. Even in this.   Connect with Symone: Instagram: @symonetalks | YouTube: @symonetalks   Connect with The Abiding Devotional: Instagram: @theabidingdevotional | theabidingdevotional.com

El Roi, The God Who Sees Me: How Jesus Saw Zacchaeus in His Sin

Have you ever stood in the crowd and wondered if God could actually see you? Not the version of you that has it all together — but the real you. The one carrying the habit you can’t break, the grief nobody knows about, the season that feels too embarrassing to even pray about. In Episode 16, we open up the story of Zacchaeus and discover what it means to be truly seen by El Roi — the God who sees. Zacchaeus was short. He was blocked. He had a reputation that preceded him everywhere he went. And yet, out of an entire crowd, Jesus stopped, looked up, and called him by name. Not to shame him. Not to expose him. But to stay with him. Friend, that same Jesus is walking toward you right now. In this episode, we talk about: • Why so many of us feel like Zacchaeus — on the outside, overlooked, too far gone • How God’s eyes are nothing like the eyes of our past, our shame, or the crowd • What it really means to “come down from the tree” • The areas we lock the door on — and why God is still knocking • How El Roi sees you in the middle of your mess and says, “I must stay at your house today” You don’t have to be better first. You don’t have to have it figured out. You just have to say yes. Scripture Focus: Luke 19:1–10 Name of God: El Roi — The God Who Sees Anchor Verse: John 15:5

If you’ve ever felt like your pain was too quiet for anyone to notice, this episode is about to remind you that El Roi has never once looked away from you.
