Listen Later

Questions are powerful because they bring focus. The questions you ask determine the answers you get. So when God asks us a question, it's not because He doesn't know the answer. It's because He is trying to show us something.

In this episode, we look at the questions God asks throughout scripture that were not just for the people He asked, but for all of us. We go into some consistent life lessons that repeat themseleves until you learn them. 

10 questions God Asks 

Genesis 3:9 - Where are you? (To Adam/eve)
Are we hiding from God or walking with God?

Genesis 3:13 - What is this you have done? (To eve)
Responsibility for our actions

Genesis 16:6-10 - Where have you come from and where are you going? (To Hagar/angel of the Lord)

“We are who God says"

“God can use whatever tools or people he chooses to conduct his miracles”

1 Kings 19:1-10 What are you doing here?
( To Elijah) We have to be as honest with ourselves as we are with God about how we got where we are today.

Job 38:1-4 Where were you when I laid the earth’s foundation? (To job)
