Summary

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? 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.  Purchase the She Hears: Learning to Listen to Jesus Bible Study : https://shehears.org/resources In this six-week study from the Book of John, Rachael Groll takes you on an in-depth exploration into the lives of six women Jesus knew. Women often deal with feelings of insecurity and unworthiness, yet the lives of these women show that Jesus values us, wants a relationship with us, and can use us to further His kingdom. In her warm, conversational style, Rachael ties together her life experience, knowledge of the Scriptures, and her compassion for women to encourage us and enable us to become the women God has called us to be.

In the Old Testament, we recognize that Jerusalem was the holy place where God revealed himself to his people.

0:39.7

But in the New Testament, we learned that this new Jerusalem is the body of Christ.

0:44.9

And so there no longer is a specific holy place.

0:49.0

Now, I'm not saying that Jerusalem is not a holy place, but it is not the only holy place because as believers, we

have the Holy Spirit in us and His holiness permeates us. So that means that essentially wherever

we go, it can be a holy place. And so we're going to talk about that today as we dive into
