THE VOICE OF GOD
We appreciate God for the privilege to be numbered among those who will see this beautiful day in this new month. May His grace continue to abound towards us.
Hear the word of God from Psalm 29:1-3, 11
Give unto the Lord , O ye mighty, give unto the Lord glory and strength. [2] Give unto the Lord the glory due unto his name; worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness. [3] The voice of the Lord is upon the waters: the God of glory thundereth: the Lord is upon many waters. [11] The Lord will give strength unto his people; the Lord will bless his people with peace.
From today’s scripture, what I want us to note is the VOICE OF GOD. The voice of God is not harsh. It is a soothing voice. It is not loud but always comes as a still small voice( 1Kings
19 v 12). It’s to guide us in all our ways.
Isaiah 30 v 21
“And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left.”
Whenever the voice of God comes to His people, it means that God is passing a message or an instruction to us to hear and act promptly upon.
As CELESTIANS, when we first entered the church, there was a voice that came to us. What was God’s voice that came to you unpo entering the church? What was the instruction God gave to you, and what was the divene message that was given to you? And did you act promptly on the instruction that was given to you?
I want everyone to understand that God has a way of dealing with each person on a personal basis. He has a way of speaking to every Christian per time and issuing instructions to every member according to what is expected of him or her. The instructions in all cases were given to help us navigate life and Christianity journeys to fulfil God’s purpose for our lives and destinies. Whenever this instruction comes, we must keep it in our hearts and act promptly on it. Psalm 119 vs.11-12 says, “Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee. Blessed art thou, O Lord : teach me thy statutes.”
In conclusion, as a CELESTIAN, the voice of God that came to you is meant for your benefit, to know what God is expected of you and yield to His instructions so that your obedience to His voice will make the promises of God concerning you come to fulfilment quickly. You will have your expectations fulfilled and enjoy the blessings that go with obedience. (Deuteronomy 28 vs.1-14).Verses 1 – 2
“And it shall come to pass, if thou shalt hearken diligently unto the voice of the Lord thy God, to observe and to do all his commandments……. And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God.” ( CCC Hymn679: The Father’s message I have sent to thee, pounder, pounder, pounder over this message, etc.)(Oro otito ti mo so fun yin, E ro 3ce oro yi wo, etc.)
Father, thank You for always guiding us by Your voice. I pray that the Spirit to be sensitive voice and yield to Your instructions be endowed upon us. We receive the grace and power to walk in obedience to Your commandments unto all pleasing in all aspects of life in Jesus’ mighty name. Amen!

Have a fruitful week.

JESUS IS LORD!
