How Is God Pursuing You?

Here’s your weekly word of biblical encouragement from Bibles.net! Enjoy this short video devotional or read its contents below, adapted from a message by Pastor Britt Merrick.

The video above will lead you to meaningful reflection and may help you identify how God is working in your life. 

“What are the goads of God’s grace in your life? In what ways has God been in a long pursuit of you? And can you identify any way that he has been goading you? Lovingly prodding you along?

Can you identify any places where you’ve been kicking against the goads? And Jesus said, “That’s hard man! That hurts!”

I want us to think about it. I want us to reflect this week, journal through it, write about it, pray about it.

What are the goads of God’s grace currently working in your life?

Because for sure, without a doubt, we are proud, rebellious, and wayward creatures. And God is always present and at work in our lives. And in his love, there is always some goading going on.”

Start Your Journey with Jesus

Do you want to know how to have a relationship with God through Jesus? When it comes to the Bible, this is the most important thing for you to know. The Bible itself highlights one message within it as more important than the rest—it is of first importance. This message is the good news about a person named Jesus. The Bible claims that the good news about Jesus is God’s powerful means to change lives—to change your life (Romans 1:16). If you hear nothing else from us, we want to be sure you hear this.
