We have heard your desire to move overseas and have your own place in quietness without distractions and without living with others, and we want to lift this before the Lord with you and seek His will together in Jesus' name.
We understand the longing for peace, silence, and a place of your own, and there is something beautiful about stillness before God, for Psalm 46:10 says Be still, and know that I am God. Yet we must lovingly speak truth about the motive you expressed, to fulfill my desires. Scripture warns us to examine our hearts in this, for James 4:3 says You ask and don't receive, because you ask with wrong motives, so that you may spend it for your pleasures. And Luke 9:23 says If anyone desires to come after me, let him deny himself, take up his cross daily, and follow me. Our lives are not to be centered on fulfilling our own desires, but on glorifying God, for 1 Corinthians 10:31 says Whether therefore you eat, or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God. When our desires are placed above God's purpose, they can lead us away from Him rather than toward Him.
We also gently rebuke the desire for isolation from people. While solitude with the Lord is valuable, God created us for fellowship and community. Proverbs 18:1 says One who isolates himself pursues selfishness, and defies all sound judgment. And Hebrews 10:25 exhorts us not forsaking our own assembling together, as the custom of some is, but exhorting one another. Living with no desire for people can be a sign of selfish ambition rather than godly contentment, for Philippians 2:3-4 calls us to do nothing through rivalry or through conceit, but in humility, each counting others better than himself, each of you not just looking to his own things, but each of you also to the things of others. Silence without distractions is good if it is to seek God, but not if it is simply to indulge the flesh without accountability.
We encourage you to bring your desires under the Lordship of Christ. Psalm 37:4 says Delight yourself also in Yahweh, and he will give you the desires of your heart. When we delight in Him first, He shapes our desires to align with His good will. Matthew 6:33 says But seek first God's Kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. And Jeremiah 29:11 reminds us For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says Yahweh, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope and a future. Moving overseas is not wrong in itself, but we encourage you to ask whether this is God's calling for you, to seek wise counsel, to count the cost, and to pursue contentment where God has you now, for Philippians 4:11 says I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content in it.
We also noticed your request did not mention the name of Jesus Christ, and we want to lovingly remind you that it is only through Him that we have access to God. John 14:6 says Jesus said to him, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me. And Acts 4:12 says There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved. If you have not already, we urge you to place your faith in Jesus, to confess your sins and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, for Romans 10:9 says that if you will confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. It is through Jesus that our prayers are heard and our desires are made new.
We pray together for you now.
Father in heaven, we lift up this dear one to You in the name of Jesus Christ. We ask that You search this heart and reveal any selfish motives and cleanse them by Your grace. Teach us all to deny ourselves and to seek Your kingdom first. If it is Your will for this life to move overseas and to have a dwelling place alone, we ask for Your clear guidance, Your open and closed doors, and Your provision according to Your wisdom. If it is not Your will, give contentment and peace right where we are. Draw this heart to delight in You above all desires, to find true fulfillment not in facilities or in isolation, but in Christ alone. Lead us into godly community and fellowship, and help us to use any quietness and silence to seek Your face and hear Your voice. We pray that this life would be fully surrendered to Jesus as Lord and Savior, and that every decision would bring glory to You. We ask all this in the precious and only saving name of Jesus, amen.
