Jesus confronts religious leaders who reject Him while craving one another’s approval. He says that if they truly believed Moses, they would believe Him, because Moses wrote about Him. Host Nick Oyler helps listeners examine where they might be chasing human approval more than God’s honor. A simple “prayer in the moment” practice after conversations helps re‑orient our hearts toward God’s opinion above all. 7:14 no In John 5:41–47 (NLT), Jesus exposes the heart issue behind unbelief: people are busy honoring one another but don’t care about the honor that comes from God. He says, “Your approval means nothing to me,” and explains that Moses himself wrote about Him. 🎯Today, we let Jesus’ words search our motives and invite us to live more for God’s approval than for human praise. 📖Follow Along (https://2minutedisciple.fireside.fm/articles/day74john54147thepraiseweseek) 🎁VIP (https://buymeacoffee.com/2minutedisciple/membership) John 5:41-47 devotional, your approval means nothing to me, honor that comes from God, Moses wrote about Jesus, Christian contemplative podcast, 2 Minute Disciple, NLT Bible meditation, fear of man vs fear of God, short Christian devotional In John 5:41–47 (NLT), Jesus exposes the heart issue behind unbelief: people are busy honoring one another but don’t care about the honor that comes from God.

Jesus confronts religious leaders who diligently study Scripture but refuse to come to Him for life. Host Nick Oyler invites listeners to examine their own relationship with the Bible and to let Scripture become a doorway into deeper encounter with Christ, rather than an end in itself. A “faith sharing” practice helps you pass along a truth from today’s reading to someone else. 5:46 no In John 5:39–40 (NLT), Jesus tells Bible‑loving people, “You search the Scriptures because you think they give you eternal life.

Jesus explains that John the Baptist was a “burning and shining lamp,” but that His own teachings and miracles are an even greater witness, given by the Father to show that He was sent from God. Host Nick Oyler encourages listeners to notice the many “witnesses” to Christ’s identity in Scripture and in their own lives, and to respond with faith rather than indifference. A simple practice of inviting God into tasks helps cultivate spiritual awareness. 7:19 no In John 5:31–38 (NLT), Jesus talks about the witnesses that testify about Him—John the Baptist, His own works, and the Father Himself.

He also reveals His authority to judge and to raise the dead.
