Is the Prosperity Gospel a Biblical Principle? What the Bible Actually Teaches: Devotional Bible Study of Psalm 128 Many of us are familiar with the term “prosperity gospel,” but what does Scripture actually say? Today we unpack a portion of Scripture that is sometimes used to perpetuate some false teaching. I pray this conversation blesses you. Thoughts to Journal: Have you had some inaccurate thoughts when it comes to prosperity within the Christian life? How does today’s teaching change your perspective? When it comes to prosperity, what does a prosperous relationship with the Lord look like in your life?

Unless the Lord Builds the House- Recognizing God’s Hand of Blessing in Our Lives: Devotional Bible Study of Psalm 127 In today’s hustle culture, it can be easy to lose sight of God’s blessings in our lives and take the credit for those blessings ourselves. Today’s psalm serves as a powerful reminder that any good thing in our life is a gift from God. I pray this episode blesses you. Thoughts to Journal: Have you been guilty of taking the credit for the good things in your life that are actually blessings from God? Have you spent too much time building things that are temporary instead of things that are eternal? What are you currently building for the kingdom?

Restoration Is A Process: Devotional Bible Study of Psalm 125 and 126 Today we focus on both Psalm 125 and 126 together because they give us a powerful picture of the restorative work that God can do after a difficult season.

Thoughts to Journal: Are there any areas of your life that are needing restoration? Does it sometimes feel difficult to have joy about incomplete restoration?

Humble Surrender to God In the Same Way of Jesus: Devotional Bible Study of Psalm 123 Psalm 123 showcases a humble posture before God as the psalmist asks God to intervene and help. In the New Testament, we see Jesus display His humility as He serves people and serves God. Today’s devotional helps us recognize this aspect of humility as we surrender to God, even when we don’t understand. Thoughts to Journal: What are some ways you resist surrendering fully to God? How does the example of humility we see in this psalm, as well as the example of Jesus impact your heart today? Are there situations or emotions that you are resisting handing over?

Praying Peace for Jerusalem and Our World Leaders: Devotional Bible Study of Psalm 122 We know that Jerusalem was the Holy place in the Old Testament where God revealed Himself to His people. However, Jesus talks about the body of Christ, believers, as the New Jerusalem. Because of the Holy Spirit, God’s presence is no longer bound to just one location. It’s important to remember that as we pray for our leaders in both Jerusalem and our own countries. Thoughts to Journal: Spend some time meditating on the fact that holiness is not bound to a specific location. Instead, if you are a believer, the Holy Spirit is in you, and He makes His presence available to you, no matter where you are. What does that practically mean for you as you live your daily life? Spend some time reflecting on that today. Today’s Key Verse: For the sake of my brothers and my friends, I will now say, “May peace be within you.” Psalm 122:8 Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast. Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference?

God’s Law Reveals His Character: Devotional Bible Study of Psalm 119 Today’s Psalm is the longest Psalm and the longest chapter in the Bible. We see how intentional the psalmist was to carefully plan out each stanza. It reveals to us the reason why we need Jesus. I pray this episode blesses you. Thoughts to Journal: As you think about how much the Psalmist valued the law in his life, think about the law in your own life. Have there been times that you have felt overwhelmed or intimidated by how much it seems like there is we need to do? Or not do? How does the realization that Jesus is the only one who was able to follow the law impact you? Do you see the connection as to why we need a relationship with Jesus?

God’s Love Endures Forever: Devotional Bible Study of Psalm 117 and Psalm 118 Today we are walking through both Psalm 117 and Psalm 118. Psalm 117 is the shortest chapter in the Bible, and it accompanies Psalm 118 so well. In Psalm 118, we see a foreshadowing of Jesus as the stone that was rejected becomes the capstone. Jesus quotes Psalm 118 in several places in the New Testament, so it’s important we learn what it says. I pray this episode blesses you. Thoughts to Journal: Think through the concept of the stone the builder’s rejected. Do you recognize how the Resurrection of Jesus has become the capstone? What does that practically mean in your own life? Is He your foundation stone? Spend some time in prayer today, praising Him for the way He has intervened in your own life. Today’s Key Verse: Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever. Psalm 118:29 Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast. Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference?

He Hears Us: Devotional Bible Study of Psalm 116 While we spend a lot of time learning how to hear God’s voice more clearly, it’s important to realize that He hears us, too. Today we look see how the psalmist responds when God hears his prayer as an example of how we are to respond- with praise. Thoughts to Journal: How does it impact your heart to recognize that God hears you? While we may not always get the answer we want, we can trust that God is faithful and hears our prayers.

Because he turned his ear to me, I will call on him as long as I live. Psalm 116:1-2 Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast.

The Godly Male Counterpart to the Proverbs 31 Woman: Devotional Bible Study of Psalm 112 Many of us have heard of and studied the godly woman in Proverbs 31, but did you know there is a male counterpart to that passage? It’s found in Psalm 112. While many of the characteristics apply to both men and women, the ancients who heard this passage would have heard it as an example of what it meant to be a Godly man. Today’s episode is so interesting, I pray it blesses you. Thoughts to Journal: If you are honest, does fear occupy more of your thoughts than it should? If the fear of God doesn’t leave room for fear of the world, what does that mean for your fears? The key is your relationship with God.

They are generous, compassionate, and righteous. Psalm 112:4 Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast. Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own?

Knowing that We Have Won the War Doesn’t Mean We Don’t Still Have Battles to Fight: Reflections from Psalm 110 Today’s psalm is quoted by Jesus as He defends Himself to the Pharisees. In this powerful psalm, we see the prophetic nature of how the Messiah was revealed to be a victorious king, long before He was even born. I pray this episode blesses you. Thoughts to Journal: Do you take comfort in knowing that Jesus is forever on the throne? Are there circumstances in your life that you need to surrender to the one who holds the victory? While we know that the battle is already won, it helps to know that there is one that fights alongside us. Today’s Key Verse: He will be victorious. Psalm 110: 7b Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast. Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life? Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do. The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying.

What is Your Hope Based On? How Psalm 102 Reveals the Source of Our Hope We all have hard seasons when we need some hope to hold onto. So many of us are holding onto false hope though. Today we walk through a lament psalm that points us to hope in the one who holds our hearts. I pray this episode blesses you. Thoughts to Journal: When you are going through a hard season, if you are honest, what is the hope that you cling to? Is that different than what the psalm points to as the source of our hope? How is hope in God different than the false hope we tend to have? Today’s Key Verse: But you, Lord, sit enthroned forever; your renown endures through all generations. Psalm 102:12 Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast. Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life? Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do. The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life. Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His. The Hearing Jesus Podcast will encourage and equip you to step into the calling God has for your life, living out your faith in the everyday. Together we will break down walls that keep us from growing spiritually. We will dig deep into our Bibles to understand and connect the Scriptures to our lives.

What Does the Bible Say About Leadership? How Psalm 101 Reveals Characteristics of the Heart of a Leader While the Bible is full of leadership, some good and some, well, not-so-good, today we look at the qualifications of a good leader. Psalm 101 provides for us a list of what to look for in a leader and what to embody as a leader. I pray this episode blesses you! Thoughts to Journal: Did you realize that the Bible held a list of principles for leadership? Which of the principles resonated the most with you? Do you feel convicted by any of them? How will you respond? Today’s Key Verse: I will sing of your love and justice; to you, O Lord, I will sing praise. Psalm 101:1 Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast. Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference?

Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life? Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do. The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying.

Loving What God Loves and Hating What God Hates: Reflections from Psalm 97 Growing in our relationship with the Lord allows God’s glory to shine in our lives. When that light is present, it exposes the sin of the world around us and sometimes even in our own lives. Today we talk about that concept and what it looks like to love what God loves and hate what God hates. Thoughts to Journal: Are there things in your life that God hates but you hesitate to deal with them? Maybe it’s sin in your own life. Maybe it’s tolerating the sin of others when you know you should speak out. Spend some time today thinking about what it practically means to love what God loves and hate what God hates and list some of those things out. Today’s Key Verse: Let those that love the Lord hate evil, for he guards the lives of his faithful ones and delivers them from the hand of the wicked.

Seeing God’s Discipline as His Love for Us: Reflections from Psalm 94 There are two sides to God’s sovereignty, His discipline and His blessing. Sometimes we forget in moments of discipline or judgement, that He is operating in love for us. Today we unpack that concept a little bit and think through what that means in our lives. I pray this episode blesses you. Thoughts to Journal: How do you respond when God disciplines you or convicts you in your life? Does thinking of God as a father help you process those times? Today spend some time thinking about God’s deep love for you and how His discipline shows that He cares for you. Today’s Key Verse: But the Lord has become my fortress, and my God the rock in whom I take refuge. Psalm 94:22 Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast. Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life? Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do. The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life. Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His. The Hearing Jesus Podcast will encourage and equip you to step into the calling God has for your life, living out your faith in the everyday. Together we will break down walls that keep us from growing spiritually. We will dig deep into our Bibles to understand and connect the Scriptures to our lives. We will boldly obey what God calls us to do, walking through doors that only He can open. Join me for your daily dose of faith, honesty, and prayer. Need to chat one on one?

Recognizing God As Sovereign in Our Past, Our Present, and Our Future : Reflections from Psalm 93 For many of us, it is easy to praise God as sovereign in our lives when it comes to the present or even the future as we trust Him. But for some of us, it’s more difficult to recognize God’s sovereignty over our past. Today we explore this topic and more, I pray it blesses you. Thoughts to Journal: Do you find it difficult to recognize God as sovereign in any of these seasons of your life? Past, present, or future? Why is that? As you sit with this today, spend some time reflecting on God’s sovereignty in your life and journal through any thoughts that are keeping you from admitting this fully. Today’s Key Verse: Your throne was established long ago; you are from all eternity. Psalm 93:2 Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast.
