Hearing Jesus: Daily Bible Study, Daily Devotional, Prayer, Hearing God & Christian Affirmations

Do you ever wonder whether you're actually hearing God's voice, or whether it's just your own? Have you been in a season where He feels completely silent? Hosted by Bible teacher Rachael Groll, Hearing Jesus is a daily Bible study and daily devotional podcast that brings together Scripture, prayer, and Christian affirmations to help you hear God's voice more clearly and grow closer to Him. Each episode opens the Holy Bible through historical context, Spirit-led teaching, and honest encouragement, so you can understand Scripture, strengthen your faith, and live it out in ordinary days. Episodes cover daily devotionals, Christian prayer, Bible teaching, hearing the Holy Spirit, emotional healing, identity in Christ, and learning to recognize God's direction in a noisy world. Whether you're looking for a daily devotional, Christian encouragement, Bible study for women, or practical teaching on hearing God and following Jesus, this is a place to grow.

Why Do I Still Live Like a Prisoner After God Set Me Free? (Luke 4:14-22) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study

October 14, 2026 • 34 mins
Jesus stood up in His hometown synagogue, read Isaiah out loud, and said it was about Him. Today we're in Luke 4:14-22, where Jesus announces His mission: good news to the poor, liberty to the captives, sight to the blind. The word for liberty is the same word Luke used earlier for the forgiveness of sins. It means release, pardon, a debt wiped off the books. I also share a story from a prison in Kenya that changed how I read this...

Why Do I Feel Like I Have to Prove Myself? (Luke 4:1-13) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study

October 13, 2026 • 46 mins
The devil's first words to Jesus were "if you are the Son of God." God had just called Him exactly that. We're in Luke 4 today talking about the enemy. Who he is, how he actually operates, and why his opening move is almost always an attack on identity. He isn't trying to get you to doubt that God exists. He's trying to get you to prove something God already settled, because once you're busy proving, he can get you to do almost an...

Why Does Resistance Come Right After You Obey God? (Luke 4:1-13) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study

October 12, 2026 • 29 mins
Have you ever said yes to God and then watched everything get harder? Luke 4 shows us why. We're starting Luke chapter 4 in our fall Bible study, and before we get to the three temptations, there's something in the first two verses most of us read right past. Jesus was full of the Holy Spirit, and the Spirit is the one who led Him into the wilderness. The hard season wasn't a detour from the assignment. It was part of it. Today we...

I Don't Want to Give the Devil Any of My Days: How Christians Should Handle Halloween and Other Listener Questions

October 9, 2026 • 33 mins
Every year around this time I get the same question. What do we do about Halloween? You'll hear everything from it's a free-for-all with no spiritual implication, to turn the lights off and hide in the house. My answer lands somewhere in the middle, and it starts here: I don't want to live in a way that hands the devil my days. Today we take on Halloween, and then a harder question about free will and the passages where God harde...

Your Messy Family Doesn't Disqualify You: Luke 3:23-38

October 8, 2026 • 35 mins
I know what a lot of you are thinking. The genealogy. Are we really going there? We are, and there's a reason. If God had wanted a clean family tree for His Son, He had the power to arrange one. Instead He built this one, out of the overlooked and the outsider and the people who were wronged. Today we're finishing Luke 3 by walking through the lineage of Jesus and the women hidden inside a list that never names them. Join me on ...

Why Does God Let Things Get Stripped Away?: Luke 3:16-22

October 7, 2026 • 25 mins
John says the Messiah is coming with a winnowing fork in His hand. Most of us read that as a threat. But a farmer doesn't go out to the threshing floor to destroy things. He goes out because he wants the grain. Today we're in Luke 3, talking about the different kinds of baptism, what the winnowing fork actually did, and why the chaff is not what most of us assume it is.

The Difference Between Good Fruit and Bad Fruit: Luke 3:7-17

October 6, 2026 • 26 mins
I had a grape recently that was so good I dug through the flesh to save the seeds. Then on a walk down our road I tried some wild grapes growing by the side, and I spit them straight out. Same size. Same color. Vines that looked almost identical. That's the difference John is pressing on in Luke 3. He calls a crowd that walked miles into the desert a brood of vipers, and then tells them to bear fruit worthy of repentance. Today we...

God Knows What You Never Say Out Loud: Luke 3:3-16

Most of us carry questions we've never said out loud. Does God see me in this. Did I hear Him wrong. Is something different about me? In Luke 3, the people were wondering in their hearts about John, and Luke tells us John answered them. Nobody asked anything out loud. Today we're talking about what prophecy actually is, how to tell a real word from a counterfeit, and what it means that God answers what we never say. Join me on an...
