As we finish this week of looking at different ways God speaks, today we’re going to look at the role of taking action in hearing God. One of the most powerful ways to discover what God thinks and how God feels is joining him where he is at work in the world around us. So my prayer today is that God opens our eyes and ears to discover fresh parts of how he declares his heart to us, and that we’re empowered to take action today in even more meaningful ways. Our Scripture for today comes from James 1:23-25, and today's worship is For the One by Brian and Jenn Johnson. First15 is a daily devotional written and recorded by Craig Denison.

The truth is that God isn’t far away, but he is inviting us into a closer and deeper relationship with him. Let’s not allow social distancing to turn into spiritual distancing. Instead, let us find peace and hope in the arms of our Creator.  We’re launching Vol. 4 of our First15 Devotional Series, Closer, to empower you every day to simply grow closer to God during these challenging times. In the brand-new four-week devotional book Closer, you’ll discover: How to draw closer to God in the midst of stress and anxiety How to build an unshakable understanding of God’s character How to receive the good gifts God is offering you every day How to find hope and joy when life gets hard  Take four weeks to have an immersive, distraction-free experience with First15.
