MAKING YOUR VOICE HEARD!

MAKING YOUR VOICE HEARD

WHEN YOUR DAY OF FAVOUR COMES, YOUR VOICE WOULD BE ONE VOICE EVERYONE MUST HEAR AND ATTEND TO, AS GOD MAKES YOUR HELPERS TO LISEN TO YOU!


Memory Verse: "But whoso hearkeneth unto me shall dwell safely, and shall be quiet from fear of evil" (Prov 1:33)

Bible Passage: Proverb 1:24-31
24 Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded;
25 But ye have set at naught all my counsel, and would none of my reproof:
26 I also will laugh at your calamity; I will mock when your fear cometh;
27 When your fear cometh as desolation, and your destruction cometh as a whirlwind; when distress and anguish cometh upon you.
28 Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me:
29 For that they hated knowledge, and did not choose the fear of the LORD:
30 They would none of my counsel: they despised all my reproof.
31 Therefore shall they eat of the fruit of their own way, and be filled with their own devices.

Apart from ordering your steps to cross the path of your helpers, when the time of your favour has come, God will make your helpers to listen to you. Do people feel you are a bore and refuse to hear you out? When your day of favour comes, your voice would be one voice everyone must hear and attend to. Abraham had a divine visitation, so also did Bartimaeus but while the former's encounter came after he returned home after a hard day's work, the latter had his by the road side (Mark 10:46-52). That your voice which has been shunned for years, will soon get the attention of your helper. And after you are heard, you will never be the same again. Bartimaeus' voice was heard and so will yours be heard this season.

Some years ago, while visiting a church in the Western part of Nigeria, the Lord ordered my steps to the house of a certain man of God. After praying with them, I was about leaving when the man's baby girl who was strapped to her mother's back suddenly stretched her hands towards me to the extent that if I had not immediately reached out to carry her, she could have fallen. Her parents were surprised at this since this same child would not allow anyone else to carry her. I laid hands on her and prayed. One or two years later, the child's mother confessed that she was a witch: she had killed five of her children and had planned to take the life of that baby girl on the day of my visit. Thank God for hearing the cry of that baby! The witch is late but the little girl has grown and married. When your time of favour comes, God will send a messenger of joy to reverse any evil agenda the dark kingdom has put in place. However, if you want your voice to be heard on the day of your favour, begin to listen to and obey God's voice today. In Proverbs 1:24-31, God says He can turn His back on those calling Him if they fail to respond to Him. If you fail to hear and respond to God's call to salvation, call to ministry, call to support the needs of your church or to help a needy brother, how then would your voice be heard on your day of favour? Some people have missed their help as a result of this. Amend your ways today.
THE FATHER’S BLESSINGS: “I pray for you as you read this message today. May the Lord hear thee in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob defend you; Send you help from the sanctuary, and strengthen you out of Zion; Remember all your offerings, and accept your burnt sacrifice; Grant you according to your own heart, and fulfill all your counsel in the name of Jesus.” Amen.

ACTION POINT FOR TODAY
Ask God to prevent you from doing whatever would cause your voice not to be heard.
You are special,
You are loved,
You are appreciated
My promise is to reply all mails
