His Voice Devotional

Text : 1 Peter 1:3&4  Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His abundant mercy has begotten us again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance incorruptible and undefiled and that does not fade away, reserved in heaven for you*   *Knowing what your true inheritance is, or the true inheritance to pass to your children will give you true rest from futile labour.*  While it is good to leave things behind for your children, you must however understand how to bring them into an inheritance that does not fade away. The very best inheritance that God has intended for His children is reserved in heaven for them. Every inheritance on earth is subject to corruption and defilement. Hence, you must know how to pass the right and true inheritance to your children's children.   *Only a righteous man, (not wicked man) can leave inheritance to his children's children.* Proverbs 13:22 Je...

Text : Philippians 4:9 ISV  Likewise, keep practicing these things: what you have learned, received, heard, and seen in me. Then the God of peace will be with you. In the Kingdom of God, doing preceeds teachings. It's an aberration to teach what you are not doing. Today, we want to focus on the principle of teaching as we have it in God's  kingdom.  The book of Acts opens with the account of Jesus' acts. But notice the order in which it was recorded.   ```In my first book, Theophilus, I wrote about everything Jesus did and taught from the beginning, ```` Act 1:1 ISV. Notice that Jesus  'did' before he 'taught'. Anyone who has mastered the act of teaching what he is not practicing is not only a hypocrite but a messenger of death. 2 Corinthians 3:6 says who has also qualified us to be ministers of a new covenant, which is not written but spiritual, *because the written text brings death, but the Spirit gives life. If you are only teaching the text (the letter...

Text :  2 Peter 3:18  But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen.  *Grace started you off on your salvation journey, and you can finish strong only by His Grace.*  Grace is an enabler. Grace is an unquantifiable blessing from God. *Grace is God's factor that releases and connects a man with the essence of God.* This is why it's essential for you to grow in grace so your life can be decorated with His goodness.  Yesterday,  we looked at two of the ways by which we can grow in grace, today,  we shall look into a few more.  1.) Through weakness: God takes pleasure in showcasing His glory through seemingly weak or unqualified vessels. He told us in 2 Corinthians  12:9 that, *My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness,* this is why Paul went further to say, most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of C...

Text :Mathew 6:34 Take therefore no thought for the morrow: for the morrow shall take thought for the things of itself. Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.  *Jesus is not against you planning for tommorrow, but he sternly warned about you being anxious.* It is normal with average man to be full of thoughts about what tommorrow will bring or look like. People take thoughts of their future, children, financial security, retirement age, they nurse fear of  death, fear of loosing loved ones, fear of what the future holds, fear of failure, etc. All these and more are the reasons for man's labour, struggles, anxieties and confusion. Men have been held in bondage from time immemorial, but Jesus wouldn't want you to be part of this bondage anymore.  Jesus wanted His disciples (followers) to be free from Mammon. *Anyone who has been overcome by taking thoughts of tommorrow (anxiety)will certainly serve Mammon.*     Jesus wants you to see your tommorrow thro...

Text : Psalms  61:3 For You have been a shelter for me, A strong tower from the enemy. We live in critical and perilous times. The globe is being threatened in everyway possible.  Romans  8:22 says that we know that the whole creation groans and travails in pain together until now. Since the fall of our first parents(Adam and Eve) in the garden of Eden, no place in this whole wide world is safe anymore. Our first parents fell out of their safe haven and exposed the whole of humanity to the world of evil. While in the garden of Eden, God was their very habitation. I believe that Eden was both a geographical and a spiritual location; an environment covered in God's full presence and glory. Today, no place in the whole wide world is safe except the secret place of the most High God, and that is, His presence-our very habitation and shelter. The kind of house you dwell in will determine the kind of protection you are liable to receive. One who lives in a woody shelter stands ...

Text :  2 Corinthians  13:14. The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen.   Grace is not what we share absentmindedly after a meeting, Grace is Jesus Christ, and without personal relationship with Him, you are not graced. The only one that is full of Grace is Jesus Christ. John 1:14 says And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. Verse 16 of the same chapter, made us to know that we received our grace from the fulness of His grace.   _And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace._ John  1:16. So it's clear that without Jesus, you are graceless. Grace is the basis for the Christian faith. *For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:* Ephesians  2:8. God's grace is usually defined as undeserved favor. Grace cannot ...

Text: Luke 12:2  For there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, nor hidden that will not be known.   *Everything done in the secret; be it good or bad shall be made manifest by the light of the day.*  Knowing that everything done in the secret shall be heard or seen in the open, then, you should always carefully chose your secret actions. Instead of engaging in secret sins and evils, you had better be doing more obedience unto God in secret. You must start exercising yourself unto obedience in the secret, so that you can have more wins in the public.  Many people today are running helter skelter with misplaced priorities. They are always on the social media, either wasting their time or seeking undue attention.  Joseph overcame the temptation thrown at him by Potiphar's wife in the secret; and he got the open reward. David killed the lion and bear in the wilderness, when no one was there, hence he could kill Goliath before the whole armies of Israe...
