Do You Hear What God Speaks? II

ByPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 3 minutes
Greetings to you, dear friends!Praises to the Lord for this day that He has given us! I am grateful to God for another opportunity to be filled with His living Word!Yesterday, we started to speak about, whether we hear what God tells us.We found out that we continually hear someone’s voice. The voice of our common sense is especially loud. God is a Spirit therefore we cannot understand God with our minds.Apart from the voice of our common sense, we often hear the voice of our feelings. Also feelings have a voice. But neither this voice always reflects what God says. Our feelings are changing, quite often they depend on outer factors – our mood, weather, how tired we are, etc. If we listen to our feelings only, our chances to constant success are eliminated.For instance, you can often feel lonely, weak, unloved, a failure, etc. Nevertheless, such feelings often do not accord with reality. If you are lead by your feelings and take them as truth, you will not be able to enjoy the life in abundance that God has prepared for you. God gives this life only to those who hear His voice and follow Him!
“My sheep listen to My voice; I know them, and they follow Me. I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one can snatch them out of My hand.” (John 10:27-28).
In order to live a solid and happy life in God, it is important that you learn to ignore the voice of your feelings and listen to God’s voice. If the Word of God is the basis for every of your actions, then your feelings will start to change and begin to accord to the truth of God’s Word, whatever your feelings might be. Feelings always follow our thoughts and are subdued to our correct actions. Our feelings are servants, and they are subdued to our will, decisions and actions.Many people are lead by the voice of their feelings, therefore they are not solid in God, and God cannot reach them and give them life in abundance. When you follow the voice of feelings, often Satan can lead you away from God and the right path. They who follow the voice of feelings often experience disappointment and are depressed. Allowing the voice of feelings to lead you – this means to put yourself in difficult circumstances that you cannot cope with, instead of overcoming these circumstances.We will continue this topic tomorrow and will learn what the voices are that claim to be ruling over our lives and will learn which one of these voices are the only true voice.With the peace of God!Pastor Rufus Ajiboye

    God was following His goal – to change His prophet character. God also wants to change me and you. To accomplish this goal He would allow serious problems in our life, if necessary. God can destroy things that prevent us from changing, because He can easily create the same things again afterwards.

  • Jesus came to fill the Earth with His glory

    Jesus didn´t come into this world to die on the cross so that people become religious and indifferent to God. Contrariwise, Jesus came to fill the Earth with His glory just like rivers fill the seas. Jesus set an example of what we have to do. Wherever Jesus showed up He stirred the place! Everywhere He showed up people responded to His visit both positively and negatively. Some of them said: “Watch the Messiah, He is the answer, He is the son of God!” while the others stated: “He is obsessed by demons, He is a sinner, blasphemer, He is dangerous, so He must die”.

  • How can we earn promotion? III

    God has set particular order in His Kingdom; there are some principles that the Kingdom of God is based on: humble people open for themselves the grace of walking in the fear of the Lord and they experience riches, honour and full life from God, – the Word of God says so. Prideful and haughty sooner or later are humbled and their life is filled with falls and destruction.If we desire God’s promotion we need to walk in humility and obedience to God. So many people after they get promoted become unapproachable, unsociable, and haughty.

  • Ask God for a reformation of your life, especially your prayer life!

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 4 minutes
    God desires for us to realize that the church that prayer also wins; it is united church which cannot be overcome by the gates of hell. Praying church is a growing church that experiences God’s power and miracles. God promised that He has established His church and that the gates of hell will not prevail against it. May God help every one of us to give prayer the central place in our lives; may God’s order be established in our lives. I am not talking about redundant, fruitless imitation of prayer; I am talking about the prayer that touches heaven, releases God’s power which was seen in the life of Jesus.
