Led by Apostle Sydney Quaye, Global Lead Pastor of Shekinah Avenue Church Apostle Sydney Quaye delivers a message emphasizing the power of the anointing to fulfill dreams. Quoting Dr. Myles Monroe, he highlights that the poorest person is one without a dream and the most frustrated is one with unfulfilled dreams, underscoring that dreams bring fulfillment and joy, aligning with God's larger plans for individuals. Apostle Quaye stresses that God's dreams for people are greater than their own, involving abundant blessings like building houses, living in an Eden-like state, and experiencing divine provision and health. The service focuses on prayers and seeking God's help in realizing these dreams. Using Genesis 37:6-8, Apostle Quaye illustrates the importance of dreams through Joseph's story, encouraging the congregation to dream big and declare their dreams openly, even if it incites envy or hatred. He frequently references Ephesians 3:20 to reinforce that God's power within us can achieve more than we can imagine or ask for. The congregation is urged to evaluate their lives, pray fervently, and believe in God's power to exceed their dreams. They are encouraged to declare their dreams and trust in God's ability to fulfill them beyond their wildest expectations. Quaye concludes with a call to see dreams manifest, invoking divine assistance and blessings in all areas of life.

Comfortability: The Enemy of Progress!

Let us start by acknowledging the dangers of staying in our comfort zone. When we stay in our comfort zone, we limit our potential for growth and success. We may feel safe and secure but are not pushing ourselves to reach new heights. Recognizing that progress and success often require stepping outside our comfort zone and taking risks is essential. One power word is from Joshua. Joshua 1:9, to be exact, says, "Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go." This verse reminds us that we are not alone in our journey toward progress and success. We can overcome our fears and achieve our goals with strength and courage. Myles Monroe would also like to share a powerful mind-reset encouragement on this topic. He said, "The greatest tragedy in life is not death, but a life without purpose." This quote emphasizes the importance of having a sense of purpose and taking action toward our goals, even if it means stepping outside our comfort zone. So, how do we break free from our comfort zone and progress toward our goals and dreams? Here are three Call-To-Action Steps: Step 1: Embrace discomfort The first step is to embrace discomfort. Recognize that growth and progress often require pain and taking risks. You can push past your limitations and reach new heights by embracing pain. Step 2: Set goals The second step is to set goals. Staying in our comfort zone is accessible without a clear sense of direction. By setting goals, you can give yourself a sense of purpose and direction towards which to strive. Step 3: Take action The third step is to take action. It is not enough to set goals; you must also take action toward achieving them. This may mean taking small steps toward your daily goals, taking a giant leap of faith, and stepping outside your comfort zone. Progress and success require stepping outside your comfort zone and taking risks. By embracing discomfort, setting goals, and taking action, you can break free from the enemy of progress and achieve your full potential. YOU ARE A MIRACLE. LIVE LIFE ON PURPOSE!

Myles Monroe of blessed memory once said in one of his books that ”when purpose is not known, abuse is inevitable". God created everyone for a glorious purpose and the only way to find that purpose is to go to God. Firstly, have a relationship with God through the sacrifice He made available for us- His Son Jesus. Believing and confessing Him as one's Lord and Saviour. Secondly, develop and ignite your fellowship with the Lord. Study the Word, live a prayerful lifestyle communing with the Lord so you can know His mind for you at all times. “We humans keep brainstorming options and plans, but God's purpose prevails.” ‭‭Proverbs‬ ‭19‬:‭21‬ ‭MSG‬‬ Endeavour to be faithful with little opportunities God opens up one's way. Opportunities to serve could be at home, the local church or workplace. I believe that when God sees one's faithfulness and loyalty with the little, He will open one up to a higher purpose. However, in some cases, God speak specifically to individual through vision, dream or prompting, I still believe that to get to one's wealthy place still requires faithfulness with the little - at home, local church, workplace etc. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/abimbola-arawande/message

The phrase "kingdom" is mentioned in the New Testament 187 times (54 in Matthew alone) so it would be important to understand its meaning an implication in our lives. But to fully understand the teachings of the New Testament, we have to go back to the Book of Beginnings-- Genesis. God had a plan. Man fell and God made a vow to restore what was lost. His original plan was to establish a kingdom with a nation of kings. Jesus restored it all and our part is more important than you might think.

Paul says in the AMP version of Ephesians 4:1, “So I, the prisoner for the Lord, appeal to you to live a life worthy of the calling to which you have been called [that is, to live a life that exhibits godly character, moral courage, personal integrity, and mature behavior—a life that expresses gratitude to God for your salvation].” To live a life that exhibits godly character, moral courage, personal integrity, and mature behavior is a roadmap, a compass for living a carefree life in obedience to the call of God that further answers and defines Paul's why. Why am I here? Why did God call me to ministry? The answer from Ephesians 4:1 is to live a life that exhibits godly character, moral courage, personal integrity, and mature behavior as a prisoner of the Lord. The word prisoner means a captive, one who has been arrested and held in custody. When you become focused on your call as Paul expressed in Ephesians 4:1, you will have no question about why you are getting up each day and what needs to be accomplished today because you are a captive and held in the custody of your purpose...further answering your why. Dr. Myles Monroe, in his book on Becoming Leader, states that “sleep becomes almost an interruption of your purpose.” Without knowing your purpose, without knowing your why, a person will be unclear about what they want out of life and become prone to wasting time on futile endeavors. This can leave a person confused and cause a lack of confidence in their decisions and choices in life and in ministry, wasting time, energy, and effort, because they have not clearly defined their why that prohibits that person from living a carefree life.

IntroductionToday, I would like to talk about a very exciting topic and of much interest among Christians and that is, how to hear God's voice. In spite of an abundance of Christian materials and sermons available today, many believers still struggle to hear God's voice and have a genuine desire to know how God speaks to His people in the New Testament. In our discussion today, I will try to provide answers to 5 questions: „Why Do We Need to Hear God? Does God speak today to all born-again believers or only to certain people who are more holy or chosen by Him? How does God speak? How can we discern God's voice from all the other voices and What can we do to learn faster to hear God's voice?” Why Do We Need to Hear God?Some believers may wonder why they should ever hear God's voice in their lives. How would it help them? Is hearing God's voice something of vital importance that deserves our attention, time, and effort, or is it just a good skill to have in any event? Well, there are many great benefits to hearing God's voice. First, it will protect you from many harmful decisions, situations, people, or things that might try to come into your life. Second, it will help you see many opportunities and open doors for you to be blessed and be a blessing for other people. Third, it will direct your steps to your destiny and calling on this earth, so that you will fulfill as much as possible of what God has planned for you and your life. Fourth, it will encourage you and strengthen you in your spirit and your faith in those moments when you will feel weak or discouraged. Hearing God is vital to a life of continuous glory, victory, success, peace, joy, health, well-being, and prosperity here on earth. To Whom Does God Speak?In the New Testament, God wants to speak and speaks to all born-again believers. This is different from the Old Testament, where God spoke only to certain people chosen by Him. You may ask, Why is that? Things are this way because in the Old Testament all people were under the authority of darkness. Jesus had not died yet on the cross and the Holy Spirit was not yet dwelling in human beings in a permanent way. The Holy Spirit was given from time to time to certain people for specific and temporary tasks and in partial measures. In other words, the Holy Spirit would come and go. However, in the New Testament, the Spirit of God has been sent on the inside of believers to be in them and with them forever. We see this in John 14:16-17 and 1 Corinthians 6:19: John 14:16–17 (NKJV)16 And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever—17 the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you.1 Corinthians 6:19 (NKJV)19 Or do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and you are not your own?God always speaks to all believers in Christ and that is something normal. That should be a daily normality for Christians and not something abnormal happening from time to time in some very special anointed moments. Every believer in Christ has the ability to hear God. God wants to speak to us much more than we are ready to hear Him. In fact, He speaks much more than we hear. Look at what John 10:27, John 14:26, John 16:13 tell us about hearing God's voice:John 10:27 (NKJV)27 My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.John 14:26 (NKJV)26 But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.John 16:13 (NKJV)13 However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come.Christ's sheep hear and recognize His voice. The Holy Spirit in us will teach us all things, guide us in all truth, and announce to us certain things from the future. These are not all stipulated in the Bible, but the Holy Spirit will speak them directly to us.Moving forward, another important thing is that it's not enough to know God speaks and that it is normal for believers to hear Him. We must also search to hear His voice, be preoccupied for it, and we must tune our minds to the right spiritual frequency, the same way we search for a radio channel until we find the right frequency. As long as you can live without hearing God's voice, you will continue to do so. But it will not be to your advantage. In Jeremiah 29:11-13, God speaks to His people through the prophet Jeremiah the following:Jeremiah 29:11–13 (NKJV)11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.12 Then you will call upon Me and go and pray to Me, and I will listen to you.13 And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart.We need to take time to quiet our minds and reduce the volume of all the other voices to a minimum so that we can hear that still small voice of Him. We need to disconnect frequently from the daily noise and meditate on who we are in Christ, where we are going, what we are doing, how we are doing things and why we are doing them and so on. We need to make a habit of meditating on God's Word. I was once test-driving a new car and, while we were driving, I could hear the noise of the wind quite loud from outside,  even with the windows closed. And that was one of the things that I was looking for in the next new car: to hear as less noise as possible from outside. I asked the lady who was doing the test-drive with us why we could hear the noise from outside, since this was a new car. She replied with a very serious face, “Well, you know, if you turn on the music louder, you will not hear any wind noise from outside.” I couldn't tell if she was joking or being serious when she said that. I didn't even know how to react to such reply. The point is that, as long we have other louder voices in our lives, it will be difficult, if not impossible, to hear God's voice. And in our day and age, the voices have multiplied exponentially: the internet and social media, smart phones, digital media entertainment, and all kinds of gadgets. And as believers, we now have to be even more intentional in hearing God's voice than ever before, if we really want to hear Him. And withdrawing from the daily activities should not be very difficult or complicated. I am not talking here about something super spiritual, where you take some special longer time aside in silence and away of everyone, although such times are recommended when it's possible. But most of us have a lot of activities and work and we have to somehow integrate this habit into our daily routine, so that it flows naturally. It doesn't always have to be a special time, but in your mind you need to be sensitive, you need to take a step back often and think about things, situations, analyze, hear a sermon, ask yourself questions, meditate on the Word, things like that. And this can be done very naturally when you drive a car, when you are in public transportation, when you have a break from work, when you prepare food, etc. How Does God Speak?The first way God speaks to His sons and daughters is through His Word or the Word of Christ. Through the Word of GodWe cannot expect to hear God's voice so much in specific ways until we know very well what He has already spoken in His Word. We need to spend time in His Word. When I talk about the Word of Christ, I am not referring to refreshing our minds with what God expects from us morally speaking, but to learning from the Word who we are in Christ, what is our identity as a new creation, what inheritance we have received, what are our rights and responsibilities in the spiritual realm, how the spiritual world and spiritual laws work, what is the heart of God, His ways of doing things, His nature, His character, His perspectives on things, and His values. Being continuously in the Word is not hard. We just need to form a consistent habit of reading the Word personally, of listening to Bible teaching and sermons, and of memorizing verses that apply to the new creation.The more Word we have in us, the more we will become one in thought and heart with God. We will know what to do in many situations even without receiving a special word from God. For instance, many times I can take a decision for our family even without my wife being present there, and I know for sure whether she will agree with my decision or not, because I know her very well. We spend much time together. And the same goes for her and for many of you.The Word will also act as a control point for all the other voices we hear. Sometimes we might think we heard something from God that contradicts what He already said clearly in His Word. For example, God will never tell you that you can divorce your wife and go with someone else. Other times, we wait to hear for an answer from God concerning a situation about which He already told us in His Word that we already have the answer, like lack of peace, sickness, financial lack, and so on. In all these situations, we have a knowledge problem. 2 Peter 1:2-3 says this:2 Peter 1:2–3 (NKJV)2 Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord,3 as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue,Many people pray for peace in their families, peace concerning their finances, for their health, and their future, but don't have the necessary and adequate knowledge of God that will give them the peace they are looking for without waiting to receive from God. Peace will not come over you all of a sudden like a supernatural blanket, but it comes through the knowledge of Him. If you have a peace problem in your life, it's because you have a knowledge problem. The same is true if you have a sickness or a financial problem. Hosea 4:6 says that God's people are destroyed for the lack of knowledge, and not lack of power or of prayer.Romans 8:6 (NKJV)6 For to be carnally minded is death, but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.Carnal thinking doesn't refer only to sinful things, but to the wordly way of thinking in all things pertaining to life. To be spiritually minded means to think according to the Word and its principles in all your decisions and your approach to life. Spiritual mindedness gives you life and peace. This is what the Word of God says. Through the Inner Voice of the MindWhen God's people transitioned from the Old Testament to the New Testament, some significant changes took place in the relationship between God and human beings. Almost everything pertaining to Christian life has changed in some way: fasting and prayer, worship, prophetic, authority, the way God relates to people, etc. Unfortunately, many believers still live in the Old Testament and read the Old Testament thinking into the New Testament. The way God speaks specifically to His people is another one of those areas that has changed significantly in the New Testament.In the Old Testament, God spoke to His people most times (if not all the time) through an audible voice and from the outside of the person, because people didn't have the Holy Spirit in them. God was sending His messages through angelic appearances as well. The prophets had to receive and deliver the messages from God very accurately. It was like a spiritual trance they entered into. And if something they said didn't fulfill, they were dimmed as false prophets and sometimes killed. However, in the New Testament, God speaks on the inside of us, in our conscious mind, through intuition, impressions, pictures, visions, certain feelings, or night dreams. It's like a telepathic communication where we just find ourselves knowing things in our intuition without knowing where they came frrom. Sometimes we have a good feeling or a bad feeling about a situation or a person. In the New Testament, the voice of God goes through our soul (emotions, reason, personality) and it speaks to us in the first person pronoun. It uses our inner ear and inner voice, as if it was our own voice, our ideas and desires. That is why many times, the voice of God in our lives is confused with our own voice and is quickly dismissed without realizing that it was God speaking to us and not just our own ideas. I will give here the examples of the priest Caiafa and the apostle Peter who spoke something they thought it was from them, when in fact it was from the Spirit of God:John 11:49–52 (NKJV)49 And one of them, Caiaphas, being high priest that year, said to them, “You know nothing at all,50 nor do you consider that it is expedient for us that one man should die for the people, and not that the whole nation should perish.”51 Now this he did not say on his own authority; but being high priest that year he prophesied that Jesus would die for the nation,52 and not for that nation only, but also that He would gather together in one the children of God who were scattered abroad.Matthew 16:15–17 (NKJV)15 He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?”16 Simon Peter answered and said, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”17 Jesus answered and said to him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but My Father who is in heaven.Because God uses our inner voice when He speaks, we need faith to act on the basis of that which we think we received from God. Sometimes, we don't have the whole picture and we just need to take the first step in faith. Hebrews 11:6 says that without faith it is impossible to please God. At first, we might not always get it right in what we receive from God, but even when we make mistakes, God will appreciate our faith to act and He will find ways to bring us back on the right path. Moreover, through practice step by step, we will learn to recognize His voice more and more accurately.You may ask, “But why is it this way in the New Testament?” It is because at the spirit level, through the new birth, we have become one spirit with the Spirit of Christ:1 Corinthians 6:17 (NKJV)17 But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with Him.The born-again believers have the mind of Christ:1 Corinthians 2:16 (NKJV)16 For “who has known the mind of the Lord that he may instruct Him?” But we have the mind of Christ.Many believers think that having the mind of Christ is a metaphor, a process, an ideal and that it refers to thinking morally like God. However, it is not so. There is definitely a process of integrating the mind of Christ into our lives, but there is also something real that has already taken place. At the subconscious level of our minds, the mind of Christ Himself has been eternally connected to our minds at the moment of salvation. We now have access to how Christ thinks in every situation. Caroline Leaf, a Christian scientist in brain-neurology, says that human beings, and especially born-again believers, are involved in two worlds in the same time. They are with one foot in the spiritual realm through the subconscious mind where the spiritual activity takes place and with the other foot in the physical realm through the conscious mind and through the physical body. She also says that the conscious mind works at a speed of 2000 actions per second while the subconscious mind works at a speed of 400 billion actions per second, which is a mind-blowing quantum speed of spiritual nature, that has never been reproduced in the physical world by a human being. The Bible says the following in Colossians 2:2-3 and 1 John 2:20:Colossians 2:2–3 (NKJV)2 that their hearts may be encouraged, being knit together in love, and attaining to all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the knowledge of the mystery of God, both of the Father and of Christ,3 in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.1 John 2:20 (NKJV)20 But you have an anointing from the Holy One, and you know all things.Once we have come into Christ, we have received access in our minds to all God's treasures of knowledge and wisdom, but that access is at the subconscious level, and we have to bring those things that we need for every situation out to the surface into our conscious minds, so that we can benefit from them. It is like we have a vast fountain of life and knowledge inside us, in our belly or gut, from where we draw out the living water of answers and power for any given situation. This is the enteric nervous system from the intestinal area where we first feel any feelings of great fear or stress. This is the area of intuition from where our gut feelings come from. Caroline Leaf and other scientists call this system, that is connected to the subconscious mind, the second brain. And here comes into play the discussion about the prayer in tongues. We have in us a fountain called the fountain of salvation which springs into rivers of living water.If you remember the beginnings of Internet when Google first appeared and we searched for a certain word or topic, we received very few results because the knowledge on Internet was still limited and scarce. However, few years have gone by, and if you go on the Internet today to search for something, you will get back thousands of resources and links on any given topic. Why? Because the information available on the Internet has become so vast almost overnight. I remember when I first bought the Logos Bible Software for the Bible school, I had only the Starter and Bronze packages. When I searched for something inside that application, I would get just a few resources. Later on, I upgraded to the Silver and Gold packages, and all of a sudden, a whole new world opened up to me. It was like a portal into new knowledge. Now, when I searched for the same thing, I was getting many more resources and Greek Lexicons and all kinds of commentaries on any topic. Likewise, when we come into Christ, Platinum or Diamond level access is granted to us in knowledge and wisdom and we access those by renewing our minds with the Word of God and by speaking in tongues regularly. In that way, when you hear a sermon, or when you a read a book, or when you look at a situation, all of a sudden you will see and perceive things which will seem normal, trivial and natural to you, and which most of the times you will take for granted, but those things are not seen or perceived by other people. That happens because you now have access to a much bigger database of knowledge, divine wisdom, and spiritual revelation. But the point that I am trying to make is that those things will not come to you with fire and thunder from heaven, but in a very subtle and natural way. Through Regular Prayer in TonguesI don't know how I can emphasize enough the necessity of believers to pray regularly in tongues and especially in situations where they need to hear God. The more believers will pray in tongues, the more their minds will be merged with the mind of Christ at the conscious level and they will enter into the so-called unconscious leading of the Spirit. At that level, most of our decisions, our speech, the places we go, and our deeds, will be in God's will unconsciously. This is so much better and more desirable, because when we are continuously filled with the Holy Spirit through praying in tongues (Ephesians 5:18), even our jokes can speak something from God to someone. Romans 8:14 says that all those who are led by the Spirit of God (unconsciously), they are the sons of God. The Greek word used for “sons” in that context is huios, which means “the mature sons of God,” those that have renewed their minds with the Word of God and pray so much in tongues that literally have become one with the Spirit in actuality. There is also another Greek word used for babies or children and that is nepios.The Apostle Paul was praying in tongues more than anyone. It's not a surprise that he wrote 3 quarters of the New Testament and had such revelations of grace directly from Jesus Christ, that the other apostles didn't have, although they lived with Jesus for 3 years. In 1 Corinthians 14:15, Paul said:1 Corinthians 14:15 (NKJV)15 What is the conclusion then? I will pray with the spirit, and I will also pray with the understanding. I will sing with the spirit, and I will also sing with the understanding.The “also” applies to the prayer and singing with the understanding. In other words, that kind of prayer and singing is secondary. The primary way of praying and singing should be with the spirit, that is, in tongues. However, for some reasons, the majority of Christians treat prayer in tongues as some kind of secondary prayer that occurs here and there, only at what they consider to be “high moments in the Spirit,” or they use prayer in tongues as fillers. But prayer in tongues is paramount because it brings the mind of the Spirit to the surface. Romans 8:26-27 says:Romans 8:26–27 (NKJV)26 Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.27 Now He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God.1 Corinthians 14:4 says that when we speak in tongues, we edify ourselves. What parts of us get edified? Our bodies through health and our minds through renewal. In other words, our minds and bodies are getting tuned, aligned and conformed to the reality of the spirit inside us. The council that you need concerning your family, what job to choose, what life partner to choose, in what direction to go ministry-wise, what is your calling and destiny, the answers to all these questions are already inside of you. They just need to be drawn out through speaking in tongues.Sometimes when I lose something and I cannot find it, I pray in tongues and soon enough an idea comes to my mind of where I have last placed that thing. At work, when I face technical challenges that I don't know how to solve, I pray in tongues. The beauty of it is that the more you make a habit of praying in tongues, the more supernatural answers to daily problems will flow naturally out of you and come to your mind. At my work place, I already have a reputation of fixing issues just by my mere presence in a meeting, without doing anything and I am not kidding when I say that. My colleagues make jokes about it, but to me is very real. It happened to me on many occasions when different people from the company tried for days to fix an issue and finally they setup a meeting with me to explain the problem and see if I can help in any way. Once we got in the meeting and they started to explain the problem to me, they realized the issue was no longer there and asked me if I did anything to which I would tell them that I didn't. Other times, they would just sent me an email about the problem to take look at it and, without doing anything, after a few minutes they would send another email telling me that the issue was fixed and asking if I did anything. It may sound hilarious, but that has been my experience on many occasions and these are not the only manifestations of supernatural in my life. How Do I Discern God's Voice?The first way to discern God's voice is through His Word. The more Word we have in us and the more we pray in tongues, the more God's desires will become our heart's desires. This way we will become more sure that when we desire to do something, it will be from God. Psalm 37:4 says:Psalm 37:4 (NKJV)4 Delight yourself also in the Lord, and He shall give you the desires of your heart.This verse can definitely mean that God will fulfill the desires of our heart, although some of our desires are not always good, as we know. However, a better interpretation would be that the more we delight ourselves in God, in His presence and in His Word, He will make His desires become the desires of our hearts. Hebrews 4:12 says that the Word of God is able to distinguish and separate what is spiritual from what is fleshly. Let's read it:Hebrews 4:12 (NKJV)12 For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit, and of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.The second way we can discern God's voice is through the presence or absence of peace.Colossians 3:15 (NKJV)15 And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful.When I talk about peace or the lack of it, I am talking about something beyond just feelings. Feelings can sometimes be deceiving. It's an uneasiness that you feel in your innermost being about a situation. You don't know why, but you just feel that way. My wife and I decided once to move in a certain city and for two weeks, after we took the decision, both of us had a persistent feeling of uneasiness, like a cloud of darkness all over us. The moment we asked the Holy Spirit about it and decided to change our destination, all of a sudden, both of us were at ease and full of joy and peace. On another occasion, I was offered to become the pastor of a church, something that I always wanted to do, but for some reason at that time, I didn't have peace at all to accept the position. And I didn't. Later on, I understood why it was better for me not to take it and the Holy Spirit protected me of some harmful things. Whenever you are in a situation where you have to choose something and take a decision, but you don't have complete peace with any of the available options, you either wait more time if that is possible and if you can afford it, or just go with the choice that gives you the most peace. It is very possible that after you take the first step, you will receive more clarity on the issue.The third way we can discern God's voice is to ask for additional confirmations from God, or from other people close to you that know you well and truly love you. God will not be upset if you sincerely ask for additional confirmations, especially in crucial decisions of life, and most of the times, He will give them to you. What Can I Do to Learn to Discern God's Voice?The first thing we need to realize and the most important one is that learning to discern God's voice doesn't come over night, but it's a process that takes time. In fact, spiritual growth and development takes time. For example, to train our minds and get an education, we usually spend over 15 years in school. Also, if we want to build muscles in our bodies, we go to gym for years regularly and adopt certain food diets. Likewise it is with the spiritual development in the New Testament and with hearing God's voice. It requires time and intentional effort to build the healthy spiritual habits that will facilitate and cultivate our growth in spiritual things. The majority of Christians expect spiritual results to come instantly and microwaved and God to do everything for them. It is not so in the New Testament.The second important thing is that no one can teach you the ability to hear God. You can receive teaching and guidelines, but to actually recognize God's voice for you personally it is something that you will have to learn by yourself through consistent practice and faith. But if you keep at it diligently, you will soon come to a place where you will be able to recognize the voice of God accurately among all the other voices, the same way you can recognize the voice of your husband or wife, because you spend much time with them. My son and I have a habit of listening every evening at bedtime to the audio Bible through an app called Bible.is and there are many actors that use their voices in reading the Bible. After listening to the 4 Gospels about 3-4 times in a row and to the voice of the person who was interpreting Jesus, we once started to listen to the story of Joseph from the Old Testament. The creators of the app decided to use the same person's voice for Joseph as they used for Jesus. While we were listening, I didn't pay much attention to it, but my five-year old son said to me: “Daddy, this is not Joseph, it is Jesus. Why is Jesus in this story?” You see, he got so acquainted with that voice of the actor who was interpreting Jesus, that he could recognize it among 4-5 other voices and even in another story. That's amazing! But that's exactly what will happen to you.I will conclude this teaching by giving you a few practical guidelines of how to grow in learning to hear God's voice. First, increase your daily exposure to the Word of God. Make a habit of reading at least one chapter a day from the Bible and think about what it says, but don't try to become super spiritual or search for meanings that are not even in the text. Just simply try to see how that passage speaks to you, what applies to you from it, and how you can implement it in your life. And if nothing comes to you, don't worry, just move on to another chapter. Also, make a habit of listening to sermons that help you understand the Word better. And don't just listen to anyone, but to people who preach about grace and about the new creation. For starters, you can begin listening to my YouTube channel (The Glory of Righteousness Series, Divine Healing Series, The New Creation Series) or my podcasts channel “Rediscovering the Gospel” available on numerous podcast stations. Other recommendations are: Andrew Wommack (who has thousands of free audio teaching files on his website or on podcasts), Barry Bennett, Audrey Mack, Curry Blake, Kenneth Hagin, and Dr. Myles Monroe from US, Joseph Prince from Singapore, Chris Oyakilome from Nigeria, Ryan Rufus from Hong-Kong, and Prophet Kobus from South Africa. You can find their materials on their websites, YouTube, or podcast channels. I uploaded some of these teachings on my mobile phone or I use Apple Podcasts, Castbox podcasts, and I always listen to a sermon in my car while I drive. If you ride a bike or use public transportation, you can use in-ear headphones and listen to sermons. Besides reading the Word or listening to sermons, what I also do and recommend is memorize verses that apply to the new creation and personalize them. I use the “Bible Memory: Remember Me” app where I collected over 300 relevant verses from my reading of the Bible and I rehearse 2 verses every day. The same I do with my five-year old son, but with him I rehearse the same 2 verses for a week every day.Second, start forming a habit of praying daily in tongues and begin small with maybe 5-10 minutes and then extend the time gradually up to at least 1 hour a day. Try to pray at different times of the day and see which ones work best for you, either very early in the morning, or after lunch time at work, or in the afternoon, or late at night before you go to bed. In the beginning, it will seem difficult to implement this habit, because it requires much faith and discipline, but after a while, it will become easy, and you will notice that you will not be able to live without it anymore. It will be like breathing. I usually find some walking routes close to the area where I live, which are more quiet and not so populated, and I go for a walk and pray in tongues and declare the Word of God over my life anywhere between 40 minutes to 1 hour almost daily. I am saying that with all humility, not to praise myself, but to encourage you that it's possible and to offer you a practical point of reference. Of course, besides taking a special aside time to pray, you can always pray in tongues while doing other activities, like working around the house, shopping, washing dishes, washing your car, etc.Third, be always preoccupied and ready to hear God. Make a habit of it. Whenever you pray by yourself, or walk, or go shopping, remind yourself from time to time to listen to God and be sensitive to His voice. In this way, you will increase your self-awareness and be able to discern more accurately when God speaks to you. Not only that, but your spiritual progress will manifest in the natural world in increasing measure and it will be seen by all. The Apostle Paul told Timothy:1 Timothy 4:13–16 (NKJV)13 Till I come, give attention to reading, to exhortation, to doctrine.14 Do not neglect the gift that is in you, which was given to you by prophecy with the laying on of the hands of the eldership.15 Meditate on these things; give yourself entirely to them, that your progress may be evident to all.16 Take heed to yourself and to the doctrine. Continue in them, for in doing this you will save both yourself and those who hear you.If you give yourself entirely to this process, your progress will be evident to all. If you continue persistently, you will save yourself and those who hear you or come in contact with you. Timothy was already at that moment saved eternally from hell, so the salvation Paul is talking about here is the salvation on earth from all the harmful things that normally and naturally affect people without Christ. Listen / Watch / DownloadYou can listen to the audio message of this article, watch the video message or download it in different formats (mp3 / mp4 / pdf) from the following link:How to Hear God's Voice (Individual Messages) – October 21st, 2021

IntroducereAstăzi aș dori să vorbesc despre un subiect de mare interes în rândul creștinilor, și anume, despre cum să auzi vocea lui Dumnezeu. În ciuda abundenței de materiale și predici creștine disponibile astăzi, mulți credincioși încă se luptă să audă vocea lui Dumnezeu și au o dorință sinceră de a ști cum vorbește Dumnezeu poporului Său în Noul Testament. În discuția noastră de astăzi, voi încerca să ofer răspunsuri la 5 întrebări: „De ce avem nevoie să-L auzim pe Dumnezeu? Vorbește Dumnezeu astăzi tuturor credincioșilor născuți din nou sau numai anumitor oameni care sunt mai sfinți sau aleși de El? Cum vorbește Dumnezeu? Cum putem discerne vocea lui Dumnezeu dintre toate celelalte voci? și Ce putem face pentru a învăța mai repede să auzim vocea lui Dumnezeu?” 1. De ce avem nevoie să auzim vocea lui Dumnezeu?Unii credincioși poate se întreabă de ce ar trebui să audă vreodată vocea lui Dumnezeu în viața lor. La ce i-ar ajuta? Este auzirea vocii lui Dumnezeu ceva de importanță vitală care merită atenția, timpul și efortul nostru sau este doar o abilitate bună de avut pentru orice eventualitate? Ei bine, există multe avantaje extraordinare în auzirea vocii lui Dumnezeu. În primul rând, te va proteja de multe decizii, situații, oameni sau lucruri negative care ar putea încerca să vină în viața ta. În al doilea rând, te va ajuta să vezi multe oportunități și să îți deschidă uși pentru a fi binecuvântat și de a deveni o binecuvântare pentru alți oameni. În al treilea rând, îți va îndrepta pașii către destinul și chemarea ta pe acest pământ, astfel încât să împlinești cât mai mult din ceea ce Dumnezeu a plănuit pentru tine și viața ta. În al patrulea rând, te va încuraja și te va întări în spiritul și credința ta în acele momente în care te vei simți slab sau descurajat. Auzirea lui Dumnezeu este vitală pentru a duce o viață de glorie continuă, victorie, succes, pace, bucurie, sănătate, bunăstare și prosperitate aici pe pământ. 2. Cui vorbește Dumnezeu?În Noul Testament, Dumnezeu vrea să vorbească și le vorbește tuturor credincioșilor născuți din nou. Acest lucru este diferit de Vechiul Testament, unde Dumnezeu a vorbit doar anumitor oameni aleși de El. Poate te vei întreba, de ce este așa? Lucrurile stau în felul acesta deoarece în Vechiul Testament toți oamenii erau sub autoritatea întunericului. Isus nu murise încă pe cruce și Duhul Sfânt nu locuia încă în ființele umane în mod permanent. Duhul Sfânt era dat din când în când anumitor oameni în măsuri parțiale și pentru misiuni specifice și temporare. Cu alte cuvinte, Duhul Sfânt venea și pleca. Însă, în Noul Testament, Duhul lui Dumnezeu a fost trimis în lăuntrul credincioșilor pentru a fi în ei și cu ei pentru totdeauna. Vedem aceasta în Ioan 14:16-17 și în 1 Corinteni 6:19: Ioan 14:16-17 (NTR)16 Iar Eu Îl voi ruga pe Tatăl şi El vă va da un alt Apărător, Care să fie cu voi în veac, şi anume 17 Duhul adevărului, pe Care lumea nu-L poate primi, pentru că nici nu-L vede, nici nu-L cunoaşte. Voi Îl cunoaşteţi, pentru că rămâne cu voi şi va fi în voi. 1 Corinteni 6:19 (NTR)19 Sau oare nu ştiţi că trupul vostru este templul Duhului Sfânt Care este în voi, pe Care-L aveţi de la Dumnezeu, şi că voi nu sunteţi ai voştri?  Dumnezeu vorbește întotdeauna tuturor credincioșilor în Cristos și aceasta este ceva normal. Aceasta ar trebui să fie o normalitate zilnică pentru creștini și nu ceva anormal care se întâmplă din când în când în unele momente de ungere foarte speciale. Fiecare credincios în Cristos are capacitatea de a-L auzi pe Dumnezeu. Dumnezeu vrea să ne vorbească mult mai mult decât suntem noi gata să-L auzim. De fapt, El vorbește mult mai mult decât auzim noi. Să vedem ce ne spune Ioan 10:27, Ioan 14:26, Ioan 16:13 despre auzirea vocii lui Dumnezeu: Ioan 10:27 (NTR)27 Oile Mele ascultă glasul Meu; Eu le cunosc, iar ele Mă urmează. Ioan 14:26 (NTR)26 Dar Apărătorul, adică Duhul Sfânt, pe Care Tatăl Îl va trimite în Numele Meu, vă va învăţa toate lucrurile şi vă va reaminti tot ce v-am spus. Ioan 16:13 (NTR)13 Însă când va veni El, Duhul adevărului, vă va călăuzi în tot adevărul. Căci El nu va vorbi de la Sine, ci va vorbi tot ceea ce va auzi şi vă va anunţa lucrurile ce urmează să vină. Oile lui Cristos aud și recunosc glasul Lui. Duhul Sfânt din noi ne va învăța toate lucrurile, ne va călăuzi în tot adevărul și ne va anunța anumite lucruri din viitor. Acestea nu sunt toate stipulate în Biblie, ci Duhul Sfânt ni le va vorbi direct nouă. Dacă mergem mai departe, un alt lucru important este că nu e suficient să știm că Dumnezeu vorbește și că este normal pentru credincioși să-L audă. Noi trebuie să și căutăm să-I auzim vocea, să fim preocupați de acest lucru și trebuie să ne reglăm mintea la frecvența spirituală corectă, cam în același mod în care căutăm un canal radio până când găsim frecvența potrivită. Atâta timp cât poți trăi fără să auzi vocea lui Dumnezeu, vei continua să faci asta. Însă nu va fi în avantajul tău. În Ieremia 29:11-13, Dumnezeu vorbește poporului Său prin profetul Ieremia următoarele:  Ieremia 29:11-13 (NTR)11 Căci Eu cunosc planurile pe care le am cu privire la voi, zice Domnul, planuri de pace şi nu de nenorocire, ca să vă dau un viitor şi o nădejde. 12 Mă veţi chema şi veţi veni să vă rugaţi Mie, iar Eu vă voi asculta. 13 Mă veţi căuta şi Mă veţi găsi, dacă Mă veţi căuta din toată inima. Noi trebuie să ne luăm timp pentru a ne liniști mintea și a reduce la minim volumul tuturor celorlalte voci pentru a putea auzi acel murmur suav al vocii Sale. Trebuie să ne deconectăm frecvent de la zgomotul zilnic, să ne retragem în noi înșine și să medităm la cine suntem în Cristos, unde mergem, ce facem, cum facem anumite lucruri, de ce le facem așa și așa mai departe. Trebuie să ne obișnuim să medităm la Cuvântul lui Dumnezeu. O dată făceam un test-drive la o mașină nouă pentru a o cumpăra și, în timp ce o conduceam, se auzea destul de tare vâjâitul vântului de afară chiar și cu geamurile închise. Și tocmai acesta era unul din lucrurile pe care le căutam la o următoare mașină nouă, acela de a auzi cât mai puțin zgomot posibil de afară. Așa că am întrebat-o pe doamna care făcea testul cu noi de ce se aude așa tare zgomotul de afară din moment ce aceasta era o mașină nouă, la care ea a răspuns cu o față foarte serioasă: „Să știți că dacă dați muzica mai tare, nu veți mai auzi niciun zgomot de vânt de afară”. Nu mi-am putut da seama dacă această doamnă glumea sau chiar vorbea serios când a spus asta. Nici nu știam cum să reacționez la o asemenea replică. Ideea este că, atâta timp cât avem alte voci mai puternice în viața noastră, va fi dificil, dacă nu imposibil, să auzim vocea lui Dumnezeu. Și în zilele noastre, vocile s-au multiplicat exponențial: prin internet și rețelele de socializare, telefoane mobile, divertisment media digital și tot felul de gadget-uri. În calitate de credincioși, în această vreme trebuie să fim mai intenționați ca oricând în a auzi vocea lui Dumnezeu, dacă vrem cu adevărat să-L auzim. Și retragerea din activitățile zilnice nu ar trebui să fie foarte dificilă sau complicată. Nu vorbesc aici despre ceva super spiritual în care să îți iei un timp special mai lung în tăcere și departe de toată lumea, deși și aceste timpuri sunt recomandate când se poate. Însă majoritatea dintre noi avem multe activități și muncă și trebui să integrăm cumva acest obicei în rutina noastră zilnică astfel încât să curgă natural. Nu trebuie să fie întotdeauna un timp special, dar în mintea ta trebuie să fii sensibil, să iei un pas înapoi des și să te gândești la lucruri, la situații prin care treci, să le  analizezi, să asculți o predică, să îți pui întrebări, să meditezi la Cuvânt, și lucruri de genul acesta. Și acest lucru poate fi făcut foarte natural când conduci mașina, când ești în mijloacele de transport în comun, când ai un timp de pauză la servici, când pregătești mâncarea, etc.  3. Cum vorbește Dumnezeu?Primul mod prin care Dumnezeu vorbește fiilor și fiicelor Sale este Cuvântul Său sau Cuvântul lui Cristos. A.     Prin Cuvântul lui DumnezeuNu ne putem aștepta să auzim vocea lui Dumnezeu atât de mult în moduri specifice până când nu știm foarte bine ceea ce El a spus deja în Cuvântul Său. Trebuie să petrecem timp în Cuvântul Său. Când vorbesc despre Cuvântul lui Cristos, nu mă refer la reîmprospătarea minții noastre cu ceea ce Dumnezeu așteaptă de la noi din punct de vedere moral, ci la învățarea din Cuvânt a cine suntem în Cristos, care este identitatea noastră ca nouă creație, ce moștenire am primit, care sunt drepturile și responsabilitățile noastre în tărâmul spiritual, cum funcționează lumea spirituală și legile spirituale, care este inima lui Dumnezeu, căile Sale de a face lucrurile, natura Sa, caracterul Său, perspectivele Sale asupra lucrurilor și valorile Sale. Și a fi continuu în Cuvânt nu este greu. Trebuie doar să ne formăm un obicei consistent de a citi personal Cuvântul, de a asculta învățături biblice și predici și de a memora versete care se aplică noii creații.Cu cât avem mai mult Cuvânt în noi, cu atât mai mult vom deveni una în gând și inimă cu Dumnezeu. Vom ști ce să facem în multe situații chiar și fără a primi un cuvânt special de la Dumnezeu. De exemplu, de multe ori eu pot lua o decizie pentru familia noastră chiar și fără ca soția mea să fie acolo prezentă și știu sigur dacă va fi sau nu de acord cu decizia mea, pentru că o cunosc foarte bine. Petrecem mult timp împreună. Și același lucru este valabil și pentru ea și pentru mulți dintre voi. Cuvântul va acționa și ca punct de control pentru toate celelalte voci pe care le auzim. Uneori am putea crede că am auzit ceva de la Dumnezeu care contrazice ceea ce El a spus deja clar în Cuvântul Său. De exemplu, Dumnezeu nu îți va spune niciodată să divorțezi de soție și să mergi cu altcineva. Alteori, așteptăm să auzim un răspuns de la Dumnezeu cu privire la o situație despre care El ne-a spus deja în Cuvântul Său că avem răspunsul, cum ar fi lipsa de pace, boala, lipsa financiară și așa mai departe. În toate aceste situații, avem o problemă de cunoaștere. 2 Petru 1:2-3 spune următorul lucru: 2 Petru 1:2-3 (NTR)2 harul şi pacea să vă fie înmulţite prin cunoaşterea lui Dumnezeu şi a lui Isus, Domnul nostru!3 Dumnezeiasca Lui putere ne-a dăruit toate lucrurile necesare pentru viaţă şi evlavie, prin cunoaşterea CeluiCe ne-a chemat prin slava şi virtutea Lui. Mulți oameni se roagă pentru pace în familiile lor, pace în ceea ce privește finanțele, pentru sănătatea și viitorul lor, dar nu au cunoștințele necesare și adecvate despre Dumnezeu, care să le ofere pacea pe care o caută fără să aștepte să primească ceva de la Dumnezeu. Pacea nu va veni peste tine dintr-o dată ca o pătură supranaturală, ci vine prin cunoașterea Lui. Dacă ai o problemă de pace în viața ta este pentru că ai o problemă de cunoaștere. Același lucru este valabil dacă ai o boală sau o problemă financiară. Osea 4:6 spune că poporul lui Dumnezeu piere din lipsă de cunoaștere, nu din lipsă de putere sau de rugăciune. Romani 8:6 (BTF2015)6 Fiindcă a gândi carnal este moarte; dar a gândi spiritual, viață și pace. Gândirea carnală nu se referă doar la lucruri păcătoase, ci la modul de a gândi în toate lucrurile vieții. A avea o gândire spirituală înseamnă să gândești conform Cuvântului și principiilor sale în toate deciziile și abordarea vieții tale. Gândirea spirituală îți oferă viață și pace. Aceasta e ceea ce Cuvântul lui Dumnezeu spune. B.      Prin vocea interioară a mințiiCând poporul lui Dumnezeu a trecut de la Vechiul Testament la Noul Testament au avut loc niște schimbări semnificative în relația dintre Dumnezeu și ființele umane. Aproape tot ce ține de viața creștină s-a schimbat într-un fel sau altul: postul și rugăciunea, închinarea, profeticul, autoritatea, felul în care Dumnezeu se raportează la oameni, și așa mai departe. Din păcate, mulți credincioși trăiesc încă în Vechiul Testament și infuzează gândirea Vechiului Testament în Noul Testament. Modul în care Dumnezeu vorbește în mod specific poporului Său este un astfel de domeniu care s-a schimbat semnificativ în Noul Testament.În Vechiul Testament, Dumnezeu a vorbit poporului Său de cele mai multe ori (dacă nu tot timpul) printr-o o voce auzibilă și din exteriorul persoanei, deoarece oamenii nu aveau Duhul Sfânt în ei. Dumnezeu trimitea mesajele Sale și prin apariții îngerești. Profeții trebuiau să primească și să transmită mesajele de la Dumnezeu foarte exact. Era ca o transă spirituală în care intrau. Și dacă ceva din ceea ce spuneau nu se împlinea, erau considerați profeți falși și uneori uciși. Însă, în Noul Testament, Dumnezeu vorbește în interiorul nostru, în mintea noastră conștientă, și prin intuiție, impresii, imagini, viziuni, precum și anumite sentimente sau vise de noapte. Este ca o comunicare telepatică prin care ne trezim deodată că știm anumite lucruri în intuiția noastră fără să știm de unde au venit. Uneori avem un sentiment bun sau un sentiment rău în legătură cu o situație sau cu o persoană. În Noul Testament, vocea lui Dumnezeu trece prin sufletul nostru (emoții, rațiune, personalitate) și ne vorbește prin pronumele la persoana întâi. Ne folosește urechea și vocea noastră interioară, de parcă ar fi vocea noastră, ideile și dorințele noastre. De aceea, de multe ori, vocea lui Dumnezeu în viața noastră este confundată cu propria noastră voce și este imediat respinsă fără să ne dăm seama că Dumnezeu ne vorbește și acelea nu sunt doar propriile noastre idei. Voi da aici exemplele preotului Caiafa și ale apostolului Petru care au vorbit ceva despre care au crezut că este de la ei, când de fapt era de la Duhul lui Dumnezeu: Ioan 11:49-52 (NTR)49 Însă unul dintre ei, Caiafa, care era mare preot în anul acela, le-a zis:– Voi nu ştiţi nimic!50 Nu vă daţi seama că este mai de folos pentru voi să moară un singur om pentru popor şi să nu piară întregul neam?!51 Dar nu a spus lucrul acesta de la el, ci, fiind mare preot în anul acela, a profeţit că Isus urma să moară pentru neam52 şi nu numai pentru neam, ci şi ca să-i adune laolaltă pe copiii lui Dumnezeu cei risipiţi. Matei 16:15-17 (NTR)15 – Dar voi cine ziceţi că sunt Eu? i-a mai întrebat El.16 Simon Petru a răspuns:– Tu eşti Cristosul, Fiul Dumnezeului celui Viu!17 Isus i-a zis:– Ferice de tine, Simone, fiul lui Iona, pentru că nu carnea şi sângele ţi-au descoperit lucrul acesta, ci Tatăl Meu, Care este în ceruri. Deoarece Dumnezeu folosește vocea noastră interioară atunci când vorbește, avem nevoie de credință pentru a acționa pe baza a ceea ce credem că am primit de la Dumnezeu. Uneori, nu avem întreaga imagine și trebuie doar să facem primul pas în credință. Evrei 11:6 spune că fără credință este imposibil să-i fim plăcuți lui Dumnezeu. La început, s-ar putea să nu distingem întotdeauna corect ceea ce primim de la Dumnezeu, dar chiar și atunci când greșim, Dumnezeu va aprecia credința noastră de a acționa și va găsi modalități de a ne readuce pe calea cea bună. De asemenea, prin practică pas cu pas vom învăța să recunoaștem vocea Lui din ce în ce mai clar.Poate te întrebi: „Dar de ce este așa în Noul Testament?” Acest lucru se datorează faptului că la nivel spiritual, prin nașterea din nou, am devenit un singur spirit cu spiritul lui Cristos:  1 Corinteni 6:17 (NTR)17 Dar cel ce se alipeşte de Domnul este un singur duh cu El. Cei născuți din nou au mintea lui Cristos: 1 Corinteni 2:16 (BTF2015)16 Fiindcă cine a cunoscut mintea Domnului, ca să îi dea învățătură? Noi însă avem mintea lui Cristos. Mulți credincioși cred că a avea mintea lui Cristos este așa o metaforă, un proces, un ideal și că se referă la a gândi moral ca Dumnezeu. Însă, nu este așa. Cu siguranță există un proces de integrare al minții lui Cristos în viețile noastre, dar există și ceva real care a avut loc deja. La nivel de subconștient al minților noastre, mintea lui Cristos Însuși a fost etern conectată la mintea noastră în momentul mântuirii. Acum avem acces la modul în care gândește Cristos în fiecare situație. Caroline Leaf, o femeie de știință creștină în neurologie cerebrală, spune că ființele umane, și mai ales credincioșii născuți din nou, sunt implicați în două lumi în același timp. Ei sunt cu un picior în tărâmul spiritual prin mintea subconștientă, unde are loc activitatea spirituală și cu celălalt picior în tărâmul fizic prin mintea conștientă și prin trupul fizic. Ea mai spune că mintea conștientă funcționează la o viteză de 2000 de acțiuni pe secundă, în timp ce mintea subconștientă funcționează la o viteză de 400 de miliarde de acțiuni pe secundă, care este o viteză cuantică uluitoare de natură spirituală, ce nu a fost niciodată reprodusă în lumea fizică de către o ființă umană. Biblia spune următoarele în Coloseni 2:2-3 și 1 Ioan 2:20: Coloseni 2:2-3 (NTR)2 ca inimile lor să fie încurajate, unite în dragoste şi să aibă bogăţiile depline ale înţelegerii complete, pentru a cunoaşte taina lui Dumnezeu, şi anume pe Cristos, 3 în Care sunt ascunse toate bogăţiile înţelepciunii şi ale cunoaşterii. 1 Ioan 2:20 (BTF2015)20 Dar voi aveți o ungere de la Cel Sfânt și cunoașteți toate lucrurile. O dată ce am intrat în Cristos, am primit acces în mintea noastră la toate bogățiile cunoașterii și înțelepciunii lui Dumnezeu, dar acel acces este la nivel de subconștient și trebuie să scoatem la suprafață acele lucruri de care avem nevoie pentru fiecare situație în mintea noastră conștientă, astfel încât să putem beneficia de ele. Este ca și cum am avea o fântână vastă de viață și cunoaștere în noi, în stomacul nostru sau în zona intestinală, de unde scoatem apa vie a răspunsurilor și a puterii pentru orice situație dată. Acesta este sistemul nervos enteric din zona intestinală, unde simțim prima dată orice sentiment de frică sau stres. Aceasta este și zona intuiției. Caroline Leaf și alți oameni de știință numesc acest sistem, care este conectat la mintea subconștientă, al doilea creier. Și aici intră în joc discuția despre rugăciunea în limbi. Avem în noi o fântână numită fântâna mântuirii care izvorăște în râuri de apă vie.Dacă vă amintiți de începuturile Internetului când a apărut Google pentru prima dată și căutam un anumit cuvânt sau subiect, primeam foarte puține rezultate, deoarece cunoștințele de pe Internet erau încă limitate și rare. Însă, după câțiva ani, dacă mergeți astăzi pe Internet pentru a căuta ceva, veți găsi mii de resurse și link-uri pe orice subiect. De ce? Pentru că informațiile disponibile pe Internet au devenit atât de vaste aproape peste noapte. Îmi amintesc când am cumpărat pentru prima oară Logos Bible Software pentru școala biblică, aveam doar pachetele Starter și Bronze. Și când căutam ceva în interiorul acelei aplicații Logos, obțineam doar câteva resurse. Mai târziu, am trecut la pachetele Silver și Gold și, dintr-o dată, s-a deschis o lume cu totul nouă. Era ca un portal către noi cunoștințe. Acum, când am căutam același lucru, obțineam mult mai multe resurse și lexicoane grecești și tot felul de comentarii asupra unui subiect. La fel, când intrăm în Cristos, ni se acordă acces de nivel de platină sau diamant (dacă aș putea spune așa) la cunoștințe divine și acestea le accesăm prin reînnoirea minții noastre cu Cuvântul lui Dumnezeu și prin vorbirea în limbi în mod regulat. În acest fel, când auzi o predică sau când citești o carte sau când analizezi o situație, dintr-o dată vei vedea și percepe lucruri care ție ți se vor părea normale, triviale și naturale și pe care de cele mai multe ori le vei trece cu vederea, dar acele lucruri nu sunt percepute de alte persoane. Acest lucru se întâmplă deoarece ai acces la o bază de date mult mai mare de cunoștințe, de înțelepciune divină și de revelație spirituală. Dar punctul pe care încerc să-l subliniez este că acele lucruri nu îți vor veni cu foc și tunete din cer, ci într-un mod foarte subtil și natural. C.      Prin rugăciune frecventă în limbiNu știu cum pot sublinia suficient de mult necesitatea credincioșilor de a se ruga în mod regulat în limbi și mai ales în situațiile în care au nevoie să-L audă pe Dumnezeu. Cu cât mai mult credincioșii se vor ruga în limbi, cu atât mai mult mintea lor va fi contopită cu mintea lui Cristos la nivel conștient și aceștia vor intra în așa-numita călăuzire inconștientă a Duhului. La acest nivel, majoritatea deciziilor, a lucrurilor pe care le vorbim, a locurilor unde mergem și a faptelor noastre vor fi în voia lui Dumnezeu în mod inconștient. Acest lucru este mult mai bun și mai de dorit, deoarece atunci când suntem plini în mod continuu de Duhul Sfânt prin rugăciunea în limbi (Efeseni 5:18), chiar și glumele noastre pot vorbi ceva cuiva din partea lui Dumnezeu. Romani 8:14 spune că toți aceia care sunt conduși de Duhul lui Dumnezeu (inconștient), sunt fiii lui Dumnezeu. Cuvântul grecesc folosit pentru “fii” acolo este huios, care înseamnă „fiii maturi ai lui Dumnezeu”, aceia care și-au reînnoit mintea cu Cuvântul lui Dumnezeu și care se roagă atât de mult în limbi încât literalmente au devenit una cu Duhul în realitate. Există și un alt cuvânt grecesc folosit pentru bebeluși sau copii în Cristos și acesta este nepios.Apostolul Pavel se ruga în limbi mai mult decât oricine. Nu este o surpriză faptul că a scris 3 sferturi din Noul Testament și a avut așa revelații ale harului direct de la Isus Cristos, pe care ceilalți apostoli nu le-au avut, deși au trăit cu Isus timp de 3 ani. În 1 Corinteni 14:15, Pavel a spus: 1 Corinteni 14:15 (NTR)15 Aşadar, ce voi face? Mă voi ruga cu duhul, dar mă voi ruga şi cu mintea, voi cânta laude cu duhul, dar voi cânta laude şi cu mintea. Expresiile „de asemenea” sau ”și cu” se aplică rugăciunii și cântării cu mintea sau înțelegerea. Cu alte cuvinte, acest tip de rugăciune și cântare este secundar. Principalul mod de a ne ruga și de a cânta ar trebui să fie cu duhul, adică în limbi. Cu toate acestea, din anumite motive, majoritatea a creștinilor tratează rugăciunea în limbi ca un fel de rugăciune secundară care apare ici și colo, numai în momentele pe care ei le consideră a fi „momente înalte în Duh” sau folosesc rugăciunea în limbi ca umplutură. Însă rugăciunea în limbi este primordială pentru că ea aduce mintea Duhului la suprafață. Romani 8:26-27 spune: Romani 8:26-27 (NTR)26 În acelaşi fel, Duhul ne ajută în slăbiciunea noastră, pentru că noi nu ştim cum ar trebui să ne rugăm, ci Duhul Însuşi mijloceşte cu suspine nerostite; 27 însă Cel Care cercetează inimile, cunoaşte care este gândirea Duhului, pentru că Acesta mijloceşte pentru sfinţi potrivit cu voia lui Dumnezeu. 1 Corinteni 14:4 spune că atunci când vorbim în limbi, ne zidim pe noi înșine. Care părți ale noastre sunt zidite? Trupurile noastre prin sănătate și mintea noastră prin reînnoire. Cu alte cuvinte, mințile și trupurile noastre se acordează, se aliniază și se conformează cu realitatea duhului din noi. Sfaturile de care ai nevoie cu privire la familia ta, în legătură cu ce servici să alegi, ce partener de viață să alegi, în ce direcție de slujire spirituală să mergi, care este chemarea și destinul tău, răspunsurile la toate acestea sunt deja în interiorul tău. Ele trebuie doar să fie scoase la iveală prin vorbirea în limbi.Uneori, când pierd un lucru și nu-l găsesc, mă rog în limbi și destul de repede îmi vine în minte o idee despre locul în care am plasat ultima dată acel lucru. La locul de muncă, când mă confrunt cu o provocare tehnică pe care nu știu cum să o rezolv, mă rog în limbi. Frumusețea este că, cu cât te obișnuiești mai mult să te rogi în limbi, cu atât mai mult răspunsurile supranaturale la problemele zilnice vor curge în mod natural din tine și îți vor veni în minte. La locul meu de muncă, am deja reputația de a rezolva probleme doar prin simpla mea prezență într-o conferință, fără să fac nimic și nu glumesc când afirm acest lucru. Colegii mei fac glume pe seama asta, dar pentru mine este foarte real. Mi s-a întâmplat de mai multe ori când diferiți oameni din companie au încercat zile întregi să rezolve o problemă și în cele din urmă au organizat o conferință cu mine pentru a explica problema și a vedea dacă pot ajuta în vreun fel. O dată ce intram în conferință și începeau să-mi explice problema, își dădeau seama că problema nu mai exista și mă întrebau dacă am făcut ceva la care le răspundeam că nu. Uneori, îmi trimiteau un email despre o anumită problemă pentru a o  examina și, fără să fac nimic, după câteva minute, îmi trimiteau alt email spunându-mi că problema a fost rezolvată și mă întrebau dacă am făcut ceva. Poate sună comic, dar aceasta a fost experiența mea de mai multe ori și acestea nu sunt singurele manifestări ale supranaturalului din viața mea. 4. Cum să discern vocea lui Dumnezeu?Primul mod de a discerne vocea lui Dumnezeu este prin Cuvântul Său. Cu cât avem mai mult Cuvânt în noi și cu cât ne rugăm mai mult în limbi, cu atât mai mult dorințele lui Dumnezeu vor deveni dorințele inimii noastre. În acest fel, putem deveni din ce în ce mai siguri că atunci când dorim să facem ceva, va fi de la Dumnezeu. Psalmul 37:4 spune: Psalmii 37:4 (BTF2015)4 Desfată-te de asemenea în DOMNUL și El îți va da dorințele inimii tale. Acest verset poate însemna cu siguranță că Dumnezeu ne va împlini și dorințele inimii noastre, deși unele dintre dorințele noastre nu sunt întotdeauna bune după cum știm. Însă, o interpretare mai bună ar fi că, cu cât ne găsim mai mult plăcerea în Dumnezeu, în prezența Sa și în Cuvântul Său, El face ca dorințele Sale să devină  dorințele inimilor noastre. Evrei 4:12 spune că Cuvântul lui Dumnezeu este capabil să distingă și să separe ceea ce este spiritual de ceea ce este firesc sau sufletesc. Haideți să citim: Evrei 4:12 (NTR)12 Într-adevăr, Cuvântul lui Dumnezeu este viu şi activ, mai ascuţit decât orice sabie cu două tăişuri, străpungând până desparte sufletul şi duhul, încheieturile şi măduva, şi poate judeca gândurile şi intenţiile inimii. A doua modalitate prin care putem discerne vocea lui Dumnezeu este prin prezența sau absența păcii. Coloseni 3:15 (NTR)15 Iar pacea lui Cristos să stăpânească în inimile voastre; la ea aţi şi fost chemaţi, într-un singur trup. Şi fiţi mulţumitori! Când vorbesc despre pace sau lipsa ei, vorbesc despre ceva dincolo de sentimente, pentru că emoțiile pot fi înșelătoare uneori. Este o neliniște pe care o simți în interiorul tău în legătură cu o situație. Nu știi de ce, dar doar te trezești că te simți într-un anume fel. Eu și soția mea am decis la un moment dat să ne mutăm într-un anumit oraș și timp de două săptămâni, după ce am luat decizia, amândoi am avut un sentiment persistent de neliniște, ca un nor de întuneric deasupra noastră. În momentul în care L-am întrebat pe Duhul Sfânt despre asta și am decis să ne schimbăm destinația, dintr-o dată, amândoi am început să ne simțim în largul nostru și plini de bucurie și pace. Altădată, mi s-a oferit ocazia să fiu pastorul unei biserici, un lucru pe care mi l-am dorit din totdeauna, însă, dintr-un anumit motiv, la acel moment, nu aveam deloc pace pentru a accepta acea poziție. Și nu am făcut-o. Mai târziu, am înțeles de ce a fost mai bine pentru mine să nu o accept și Duhul Sfânt m-a protejat de unele lucruri nedorite. Ori de câte ori te afli într-o situație în care trebuie să alegi ceva și să iei o decizie, dar nu ai pace completă cu nici una din opțiunile disponibile, fie mai aștepți dacă e posibil și poți, fie mergi înainte cu opțiunea cu care ai cea mai multă pace. Este foarte posibil ca după ce faci primul pas să primești mai multă claritate cu privire la cee ace trebuie să faci.Al treilea mod prin care putem discerne vocea lui Dumnezeu este să cerem confirmări suplimentare de la Dumnezeu sau de la alte persoane apropiate care ne cunosc bine și ne iubesc cu adevărat. Dumnezeu nu va fi supărat dacă Îi cerem sincer alte confirmări, mai ales în deciziile cruciale ale vieții și, de cele mai multe ori, El ni le va da. 5. Ce pot face pentru a învăța să discern vocea lui Dumnezeu?Primul lucru pe care trebuie să-l realizăm și cel mai important este că învățarea de a discerne vocea lui Dumnezeu nu vine peste noapte, ci este un proces care necesită timp. De fapt, creșterea și dezvoltarea spirituală necesită timp. De exemplu, pentru a ne antrena mintea și pentru a obține o educație petrecem cel puțin 15 ani în școală. De asemenea, dacă dorim să ne dezvoltăm forța musculară fizică, mergem la sală ani de zile în mod regulat și adoptăm anumite diete de mâncare. La fel este cu dezvoltarea spirituală în  Noul Testament și cu auzirea vocii lui Dumnezeu. Necesită timp și efort intenționat pentru a construi obiceiurile spirituale sănătoase care să ne faciliteze și să cultive creșterea în lucrurile spirituale. Majoritatea a creștinilor se așteaptă ca rezultatele spirituale să vină instantaneu ca la microunde, iar Dumnezeu să facă totul pentru ei. Nu este așa în Noul Testament.Al doilea lucru important este că nimeni nu te poate învăța abilitatea de a-L auzi pe Dumnezeu. Poți primi învățătură și îndrumări, dar a recunoaște vocea lui Dumnezeu pentru tine personal este ceva ce va trebui să înveți singur prin practică și credință consecventă. Însă dacă te ții de asta cu perseverență, vei ajunge la un moment dat la un punct în care vei putea recunoaște vocea lui Dumnezeu cu exactitate dintre toate celelalte voci, în același mod în care poți recunoaște vocea soțului sau a soției, pentru că petreci mult timp cu el sau ea. Fiul meu și cu mine avem obiceiul de a asculta în fiecare seară la culcare Biblia audio printr-o aplicație numită Bible.is și există mulți actori care își folosesc vocile în citirea respectivă a Bibliei. După ce am ascultat cele 4 Evanghelii de vreo 3-4 ori la rând și vocea persoanei care îl interpreta pe Isus, am început la un moment dat să ascultăm povestea lui Iosif din Vechiul Testament. Creatorii aplicației au decis să folosească aceeași voce a lui Isus și pentru Iosif. În timp ce ascultam, eu nu am dat atenție prea mult, dar fiul meu de cinci ani mi-a spus: „Tati, acesta nu este Iosif, ci Isus. De ce este Isus în această poveste?” Vedeți, el s-a familiarizat atât de mult cu acea voce care îl interpreta pe Isus, încât a putut să o recunoască dintre alte 4-5 voci și chiar într-o altă istorioară. Acest lucru e uimitor! Dar exact asta se va întâmpla și cu tine.Voi încheia această învățătură oferindu-ți câteva îndrumări practice despre cum să crești să înveți să distingi vocea lui Dumnezeu. Mai întâi, mărește expunerea ta zilnică la Cuvântul lui Dumnezeu. Obișnuiește-te să citești cel puțin un capitol pe zi din Biblie și gândește-te la ceea ce spune, dar nu încerca să devii super spiritual sau să cauți semnificații care nu sunt nici măcar în text. Pur și simplu încearcă să vezi cum îți vorbește ție acel pasaj, ce se aplică pentru tine din el și cum îl poți implementa în viața ta. Dacă nu îți vine nimic, nu e nici o problemă, treci mai departe la următorul capitol. De asemenea, obișnuiește-te să asculți predici care te ajută să înțelegi mai bine Cuvântul. Și nu asculta pe oricine, ci pe oamenii care predică despre har și despre noua creație. Pentru început, poți începe să asculți canalul meu de YouTube (Seria ”Gloria neprihănirii”, Seria ”Vindecarea divină”, Seria ”Noua creație”) sau canalul meu de podcast-uri „Redescoperă Evanghelia” disponibil pe numeroase stații online de podcast-uri. Alte recomandări ar fi: ​​Andrew Wommack (care are mii de fișiere audio gratuite de învățătură pe site-ul său sau pe podcast-uri), Barry Bennett, Audrey Mack, Curry Blake, Kenneth Hagin și Dr. Myles Monroe din Statele Unite ale Americii, Joseph Prince din Singapore, Chris Oyakilome din Nigeria, Ryan Rufus din Hong-Kong și Profetul Kobus din Africa de Sud. Poți găsi materialele lor pe site-urile lor web, pe YouTube sau pe canalele de podcast-uri. Eu am transferat câteva dintre aceste învățături pe telefonul meu mobil sau folosesc podcast-uri Apple, podcast-uri Castbox și ascult întotdeauna o predică pe mașină în timp ce conduc. Dacă mergi cu bicicleta sau folosești mijloacele de transport în comun, poți să-ți pui căști în ureche și să asculți predici. Pe lângă citirea Cuvântului sau ascultarea predicilor, ceea ce fac eu și îți recomand și ție este să memorezi versete care se aplică noii creații și să le personalizezi. Eu folosesc aplicația „Bible Memory: Remember Me”, unde am adunat peste 300 de versete relevante din lectura mea zilnică a Bibliei și repet câte 2 versete în fiecare zi. La fel fac și cu fiul meu de cinci ani, însă cu el repet ​​aceleași 2 versete timp de o săptămână întreagă fiecare zi.În al doilea rând, începe să îți formezi obiceiul de a te ruga zilnic în limbi și începe ușor cu 5-10 minute, dar consecvent, apoi extinde timpul treptat până la 1 oră pe zi cel puțin. Încearcă să te rogi în diferite momente ale zilei și vezi care dintre ele funcționează cel mai bine pentru tine, fie dimineața foarte devreme, fie după ora prânzului la serviciu, fie după-amiaza, fie noaptea târziu înainte de a merge la culcare. La început, va părea dificil să implementezi acest obicei, deoarece necesită multă credință și disciplină, dar după un timp, va deveni ușor și vei observa că nu vei mai putea trăi fără el. Va fi ca respirația. De obicei, eu găsesc câteva trasee de mers pe jos aproape de zona în care locuiesc, care sunt mai liniștite și nu sunt atât de populate și merg la o plimbare și mă rog în limbi și declar Cuvântul lui Dumnezeu peste viața mea, între 40 de minute și o oră aproape zilnic. Spun asta cu toată umilința, nu pentru a mă lăuda, ci pentru a te încuraja că este posibil și pentru a-ți oferi un punct de referință practic. Desigur, în afară de a lua un timp special deoparte pentru a te ruga, poți oricând să te rogi în limbi în timp ce faci alte activități precum lucrul prin casă, cumpărături, spălarea vaselor, spălarea mașinii, etc.În al treilea rând, fii mereu preocupat și pregătit să-L auzi pe Dumnezeu. Fă-ți un obicei din asta. Ori de câte ori te rogi singur, sau te plimbi, sau mergi la cumpărături, amintește-ți din când în când să-L asculți pe Dumnezeu și să fii sensibil la vocea Lui. În acest fel, îți vei dezvolta conștiența de sine și vei putea discerne mai exact atunci când Dumnezeu îți vorbește. Nu numai atât, dar progresul tău spiritual se va manifesta în lumea naturală într-o măsură crescândă și va fi văzut de toți. Apostolul Pavel i-a spus lui Timotei în felul următor: 1 Timotei 4:13-16 (NTR)13 Până voi veni, ia seama bine la citire, la îndemnare şi la învăţătura pe care o dai altora. 14 Nu fi nepăsător de darul care este în tine, care ţi-a fost dat prin prorocie, cu punerea mâinilor de către ceata prezbiterilor. 15 Pune-ţi pe inimă aceste lucruri, îndeletniceşte-te în totul cu ele, pentru ca înaintarea ta să fie văzută de toţi. 16 Fii cu luare-aminte asupra ta însuţi şi asupra învăţăturii pe care o dai altora; stăruieşte în aceste lucruri, căci, dacă vei face aşa, te vei mântui pe tine însuţi şi pe cei ce te ascultă. Dacă te dedici în totalitate acestui proces, progresul tău va fi evident pentru toți. Dacă vei continua cu persistență, te vei salva pe tine și pe cei care te ascultă sau vin în contact cu tine. Timotei era la acel moment deja salvat veșnic din iad, așa că mântuirea despre care vorbește Pavel aici este salvarea pe pământ de toate lucrurile negative care afectează în mod normal și natural oamenii fără Cristos.

Within every human being is a longing desire to succeed, whether professional or personal. We are all hardwired with the passion for achieving and excelling. With tools that have been endowed within to succeed at any challenge, However, to fully grab hold of all that's in our toolbox of success, we will need to take a small step back and answer a few questions. These questions will help with a purposeful directional change towards our destiny; they will also help us understand our stuck point and steps to progress with clarity towards purpose. Here's our question's curtesy from Dr. Myles Monroe. Who am I?- what is your identity. Where am I from? Do you understand your heritage or source? Why Am I here? Referring to our purpose. What can I do? Referring to what are you capable of doing Where am I going? Taking the time to answer and unravel these questions can catapult anyone towards a stronger relationship with one's inner self. Allowing us the permission to search for the undiscovered lineage of confidence, strength, and God's power.

The Moms and Martinis podcast is a biweekly listen into the kitchen table talk between the host, Kira, and her friends. Kira, mom of four from Atlanta, Georgia, invites you to witness candid moments in her life as she tries new things and goes to new places, all while becoming a better person and mother and keeping her mental health in check. In this week’s episode, Kira is joined at the table with Shereece to discuss being a strong friend. Shereece explains why the importance of normalizing courting your friends and setting clear expectations about what you are looking for in a friendship and from that person. They also discussed why asking your friends for permission to dump before unloading new information on them emotionally. How do you want your friends to show up for you? Kira outlines the four levels as adapted from Waiting and Dating by Dr. Myles Monroe. acquaintances: occasional contact with very general knowledge of each other; talk about general topics that won’t cause the person to feel threatened or that you are trying to pry; the lowest level of friendship Casual friends: have common interests, activities, and concerns; meet more frequently than acquaintances and talk about common interests; praise and encourage each other in achievements and accomplishments; not serious about each other emotionally. Close friends: mutual interests and life goals, handiwork mutually toward reaching those goals; often share similar values, ideals, and worldviews; “Most people never get this far in their relationships, and others jump straight from acquaintances to “intimate” because they do not know how to go through the friendship-building process. Intimate friends: committed to the development of each others character; requires the freedom to be vulnerable, as well as correct each other; mutual responsibility of open honesty with discretion; committed to working with each other toward becoming better people Become a Monthly Supporter: If Moms and Martinis is a part of your day or week, and you love what we’re doing, please subscribe as a monthly listener.

The Different Shades of Love 2

Tuesday 16th February A lovely Tuesday to you in Jesus name. We are still talking about love and this week our focus is on The Different Shades of Love. Love has shades and what do we mean by that? We means there are different expressions of love and that's because we have different relationships with different people. And there are different expressions of your person. The Bible says different things about the Person of God. For instance, God is love, God is holy and God is a consuming fire but it is the same God. Dr Myles Monroe said "When the purpose or the intent of a thing is not known, abuse is inevitable". When we do not know the love commitments or demands that the different relationship needs, then we can get into trouble because we can abuse ourselves or abuse relationships. You need to understand the purpose of each relationship and the love demand that it requires. We must be careful to separate the love demand of the person from the purpose of our relationship with the person. Wisdom is to know the shade of love to express to the relationship with respect to purpose and not person. Another thing we need to understand is the limitations of English language with respect to expressing some words. The New Testament of the Bible was written in Greek and the word “love” in Greek has a number of meanings. An example is in John 21 : 15 - 17 (KJV) 15 So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs.16 He saith to him again the second time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my sheep.17 He saith unto him the third time, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me? Peter was grieved because he said unto him the third time, Lovest thou me? And he said unto him, Lord, thou knowest all things; thou knowest that I love thee. Jesus saith unto him, Feed my sheep. In this passage, Jesus spoke about “love,” Peter responded using the word “love” too, but in the Greek the words used for 'love" are not the same. The word Jesus was using was the word “Agape” which is different from the word Peter was using which was "Phileo", but in English they are both called love. Jesus was talking about love- Agape and Peter was talking about love - Phileo. Peter finally got angry when Jesus decided to use the word “phileo” for him rather the word “agape” He had used earlier because He knew it was a different shade of love. He knew Phileo was a lower shade of love to Agape. In the Greek there are different shades of love and we can see the different shades of this love expressed in the Bible. As we continue this week, we will to look at the different kinds of love the Bible talks about and the commitments required for each. Understand this, God's love for you is the highest kind of love because you and I are the crown of his creation. May the love of God make a difference in our life in Jesus name. God bless you. Enjoy the rest of your day.

I have a question for you: Do you even have a vision board? If so, then great. A written vision with images is powerful. And if not, a written vision with images is powerful. And we all know one. How about the people around you? Do they buy into your vision? Do they support where you’re trying to go with your vision? We all need at least one person who cheers for us. We need that person who doesn’t compete but instead is happy for us as long as we’re happy doing our vision. Myles Monroe said, “A friend is anyone who is willing & committed to you getting to your vision.” We need a vision, a vision board, and at least one good cheering friend. I pray we all get those things. Happy vision boarding. Vision Boards Facebook Page

You know those short form posts that get sent around in WhatsApp broadcasts, or that seemingly get shared literally for the fear of what ever bad thing they promise will happen to you if you don't share them with x number of people. Well today we took one of those posts, this one claiming to be an excerpt from Myles Monroe about the 5 things a man should be before marriage. We discuss, as three men in very different places in life, Mo's married, I'm engaged and Bobby A's single, and we thus have unique perspectives when it comes to the topic. We hope you enjoy the episode and if you do please let us know in the comments and let your friends know by sharing, and if you don't, please let us know in the comments and let your friends know by sharing. We're big believers in the "win-win" Take care and stay blessed.
