Restoration Service | Wrestling with God | The Silence of God

Oct 19, 2025    Brian Remsch

In this powerful message, we explore the profound concept of wrestling with God during times of silence and struggle. The story of Jacob's nightlong wrestle with God in Genesis 32 serves as a poignant metaphor for our own spiritual journeys. We learn that wrestling with God is not a sign of weak faith, but rather an authentic expression of our deepest trust in Him. Just as Jacob emerged from his struggle with both a blessing and a limp, we too may carry the scars of our spiritual battles. However, these very wounds become testimonies to God's faithfulness and transformative power in our lives. This message challenges us to bring our doubts, fears, and unanswered questions before God, encouraging us to 'stay in the fight' even when we don't understand His ways. It reminds us that true hope is not the absence of sorrow, but the stubborn refusal to believe that sorrow has the final word. As we face our own struggles, we're called to embrace the wrestling, knowing that on the other side, we'll be able to point to those moments and say, 'That's where my God showed up.'
