The Tension of Obedience: John 7:1–24: Daily Devotional, Daily Bible Study In this episode, Rachael Groll looks at John 7 and the tension Jesus faced between obedience to God and the pressure to please others. She unpacks how Jesus responded to misunderstanding, criticism, and timing with wisdom and humility: and what that means for us today. Through this story, Rachael reminds listeners that faith sometimes means waiting on God when the world is pushing for action. When we trust His timing and listen for His voice above the noise, we learn how to walk in quiet confidence, even when others don’t understand. ☆Go Deeper and Learn to Hear God’s Voice: Knowing Jesus Course ☆ This podcast devotional is a companion to Knowing God’s Voice, Grab Your Printed Copy Here! ☆To Learn More About Sponsoring a Child, check out Compassion International here:  ➤  Sponsor a Child ☆Go on a trip with Rachael: Bible Study Live ☆Have a question for Rachael?

Are You Satisfied? John 6:36–59: Daily Devotional, Daily Bible Study In this episode, Rachael Groll talks about what it really means to feed your soul and find lasting satisfaction in Jesus. Drawing from John 6, she reminds listeners that true fulfillment doesn’t come from temporary comforts or material things: it comes from abiding in a daily, growing relationship with the One who calls Himself the Bread of Life. Through honest reflection and practical encouragement, Rachael helps you recognize what’s been filling your life and invites you to experience the kind of nourishment that only Jesus can provide. ☆Go Deeper and Learn to Hear God’s Voice: Knowing Jesus Course ☆ This podcast devotional is a companion to Knowing God’s Voice, Grab Your Printed Copy Here! ☆To Learn More About Sponsoring a Child, check out Compassion International here:  ➤  Sponsor a Child ☆Go on a trip with Rachael: Bible Study Live ☆Have a question for Rachael?

Are you staying rooted in things like prayer? Jesus is the bread, meaning He is the thing that will sustain us. Everything else that we try to satisfy will be temporary. For some, satisfaction comes from alcohol or addiction. For others, it might be money and security. Relationships can also be a source of temporary satisfaction. He is the only one that will last. We need to focus on lasting fulfillment. Nourishing the soul is essential for spiritual health.

Miracle vs Miracle Worker: John 6:1–35: Daily Devotional, Daily Bible Study In this episode, Rachael Groll explores how easy it is to chase what God can do for us instead of simply wanting Him. Looking at John 6:36–59, she unpacks why Jesus calls Himself the Bread of Life and what that means for our faith today. Rather than focusing on miracles or quick answers, Rachael helps listeners refocus their hearts on the miracle worker Himself: inviting them to pause, reflect, and ask, “Am I seeking His hand, or His heart?” ☆Go Deeper and Learn to Hear God’s Voice: Knowing Jesus Course ☆ This podcast devotional is a companion to Knowing God’s Voice, Grab Your Printed Copy Here! ☆To Learn More About Sponsoring a Child, check out Compassion International here: ➤  Sponsor a Child ☆Go on a trip with Rachael: Bible Study Live ☆Have a question for Rachael?

Sometimes we forget about the miracle worker. This passage invites us to wrestle with that question. We should shift our focus from what he can give us to who he is. Understanding the identity of the miracle worker is crucial. Focusing on gifts can distract us from the giver. Wrestling with questions is part of faith. The identity of the miracle worker is more important than the miracles. Miracles can captivate but should not define our faith. Faith is about relationship, not just gifts. ☆Get Ad-Free Episodes, Bonus Content, and more here:  patreon.com/HearingJesusBible, Bible Study, Devotions, Devotional, Daily Devotional, Prayer, Jesus, God, Holy Spirit, Spiritual Growth, hearing God’s voice, Hearing God, Hearing Jesus, Praying, Pray, God’s Word, Scriptures Hearing Jesus, Knowing God's Voice, Female Prophets, Bible Study, Spiritual Growth, Christian Podcast, Faith Journey, Obedience, God's Communication, Personal Reflections, prophecy, faith, surrender, spiritual gifts, women's ministry, Christian podcast Learn more about your ad choices.
