Nobody Told Elijah To Pray Harder

You can be exhausted and still call it faithfulness. In this video I talk about the difference between genuine sacrifice and quiet neglect, why so many worship leaders are running on empty and mistaking it for devotion, and what God actually did for Elijah before He asked him a single question about his calling. We've built a whole language in church around being poured out, tired for the Lord, giving our all. And some weeks that's true. But some weeks it's just neglect, dressed in devotion's clothes. This video walks through David's years in the field, Elijah under the tree, and what scripture actually says about rest, so you can start telling the difference in your own life.
