When you feel invisible, overlooked, and forgotten, remember this: you serve El Roi-the God who sees you.
In a world where people feel increasingly unseen and undervalued, the ancient story of Hagar offers a powerful truth that will transform how you understand your worth and God's presence in your life. "El Roi: The God Who Sees" takes you deep into Genesis 16, where a forgotten Egyptian slave encounters the living God in her darkest moment and discovers that she is not invisible to Him.
Elder K Leavell Fort brings her signature no-nonsense, biblically grounded teaching to this profound study of divine encounter. With the wisdom of someone who understands struggle, she guides readers through Hagar's journey from victim to victor, from forgotten to favored, from running away to running toward God's purpose.
This book is for you if you've ever:
- Felt overlooked or undervalued in your family, workplace, or community
- Wondered if God really cares about your specific situation
- Struggled with feeling like an outsider who doesn't belong
- Been tempted to run from difficult circumstances instead of enduring them
- Questioned whether your pain has any purpose
- Needed reassurance that your story matters to God
Through eighteen powerful chapters, you'll discover how to:
- Recognize God's presence in your wilderness seasons
- Transform your perspective from victim to victor
- Find strength in situations where you feel powerless
- Create spiritual landmarks that anchor your faith during storms
- Move from being overlooked to being intentionally positioned by God
Elder Fort doesn't offer easy answers or shallow comfort. Instead, she provides biblically solid, practically applicable truth that meets you in your challenges and shows you how God is working even when you can't see it. Her teaching is firm but restorative, challenging but compassionate-exactly what you need when life has knocked you down and you're wondering if anyone notices.
"El Roi: The God Who Sees" is more than a Bible study-it's an encounter with the God who specializes in seeing the unseen, hearing the unheard, and elevating the overlooked. If you're ready to stop running from your circumstances and start discovering God's purpose in them, this book will show you how the same God who saw Hagar in the wilderness sees you in yours.
Your wilderness season isn't your final destination. Your current crisis isn't your permanent address. The God who sees you is the God who's writing your story, and your story is far from over.
