Have you ever noticed the very first question God asked in the Bible? It’s found in Genesis 3:9—“Where are you?” Spoken to Adam after the fall, this wasn’t a question about geography. God knew exactly where Adam was. It was a question aimed at the heart.
God was inviting Adam—and all of us—to step out of hiding. To face where we are, spiritually and emotionally. This question still echoes in our lives today.
That’s why studying the questions God asks in Scripture can be so powerful. God’s questions reveal what matters most to Him. They uncover our fears, our motives, and our deepest needs.
When God asks a question, He’s not seeking information. He’s stirring reflection. He wants us to think, to grow, and most of all, to come back to Him.
In the next few days we will be looking at the questions God asked. You may be surprised how deeply they speak to you. In addition to “Where are you?” God also asks, “Why are you angry?” “Where is your brother Abel?” And “Is My hand shortened, that it cannot redeem?”
By the way, if you know someone who wants to receive these daily devotionals, send me their name and number. I will add them to the daily list. Don’t worry, when you text me, it is seen only by me.
I’m Lonnie Davis and these are thoughts worth thinking.
