ARE YOU HEARING THE VOICE OF PEACE ?

THE VOICE OF PEACE

For you shall go out with joy, and be led out with peace. Isaiah 55:12

Not only does God speak to us through His Word, and not only does He speak to us through people and circumstances, but God also speaks to us through His peace.
Bible said in Colossians 3:15 "Let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to which also you were called in one body; and be thankful".

Another way to translate that verse is, "Let God's peace act as an umpire in your lives, settling with finality all matters that arise."
God's peace can act as an umpire in your life. He can settle with finality what you should do. Here's how it works.

Maybe you think that something is the will of God. Circumstantially, things have fallen into place.
You begin to proceed, but then you have a complete lack of peace. Something inside of you is saying, "Don't do it."

The Old Testament tells the story of a clever group of individuals known as Gibeonites, who lived in Canaan. God had instructed Joshua not to make any deals with the inhabitants of the land.
So the Gibeonites put on old shoes and clothes and pretended as though they had come from a distant country. They told Joshua they had come to enter into an agreement with him.

Joshua unknowingly struck a deal with his enemies because he failed to consult the Lord. Things can look good outwardly.
Everything can seem right. Be careful. Learn to listen to that still, small voice. Learn to pay attention to that peace, or lack out, in your heart because that is one of the ways God will lead you.
When you're in the will of God, you will have His peace. All the ways of God are peaceful.
Prayer: Lord, teach me to listen to the voice of peace.

Bible Reading: Isaiah 55:6-13.

REALISTIC EXPECTATION OF MARRIAGE (SINGLE LADIES)

SOME COMMON EXPECTATIONS & REALITY ABOUT BEING SINGLE AND BEING MARRIED

Expectation 1: I am bored, if only I was married, I will not be this bored!

Reality 1: The man does not dote over you or give you continues entertainment. So, learn to know what healthy fun activities are before he comes. So, when you feel like the fun is slowing down, which it will, then you have a fall-back plan.

Expectation 2: I am broke- if only I was married- I will have someone to give me money!

Reality 2: Most men love and respect a woman who has money or at least can take care of their own personal needs. He will respect you and his family will do as well.
Don't wait for a man to come and take care of your daily need. It's a bad sign if you can't fend for yourself before marriage.

Expectation 3: I am not committed to God and the service of god now, when I marry, I will be more settled.

Reality 3: There will be many more challenges for your walk with God....husband needs, children needs etc. if you are not used to managing the time and priorities now, you still won't know how to do it when the need is increased.

Expectation 4: I can't do without sex now, when I marry, because I have my own husband, I will be able to control my urges.

Reality 4: You don't just wake up and become chaste. Your uncontrollable sexual urges are still as virulent when you are married. So deal with your passion and desires now and bring them to submission under Christ!!!! Some married women still cheat when faced with the option...it's not the presence of a man in your life that makes you holy, it's a holiness-consciousness activated.

Expectation 5: when he marries me, he won't be looking at other women!

Reality 5: it's the nature of unrenowned mind to lack self discipline. Having 5 wedding rings does not make a man faithful. If he can't keep off extras before marrying you, he won't keep away From them afterwards.

Expectation 6: I don't have much for myself so I can't take care of my parents...when I’m married my husband would do so.

 Reality 6: Please look after your parents while you are single for when you are married there will be more demands on you financially. Even if it is a little thing from time to time, they will bless you from a grateful heart.

 

SPIRIT OF LEADERSHIP YOU NEED TO KNOW

 

SPIRIT FILLED LEADERSHIP

“Behold my servant whom I uphold; mine elect, in whom my soul delighted. I have put my spirit upon him...Isaiah 42:1
Are you a spirit filled leader?  Do you operate under God’s divine influence? There are certain things you must note if you must answer these questions.
1. A spirit filled leader is a man under authority. He recognizes that he is a servant. A servant trembles, take instructions, is teachable and can be trusted.
2. He recognizes the uniqueness of his calling and gifts.
3. He has divine unction. Whenever we see a Christian leader, we must see the anointing; we must live a life without blemish - a holy life. You must rule yourself before you rule others.
4. A spirit filled leader is given to unceasing prayers.
5. He is a man of great understanding. When you have understanding, you will clearly define your tasks.
6. He knows the unfolding of God’s plans. Ministry has phases; you must recognize where you are and what God has called you to do.
7. He is upheld by the Lord.
Be filled by the Holy Ghost. Seek to know God and you will be greatly used for His kingdom

By Rev. G.E. Erhabor

UNMARRIED MEN IN CHURCH...(LESSON FROM A JOKE)

UNMARRIED MEN IN CHURCH...

Brother Unmarried walks into the church, goes into the balcony and sits in a certain spot. Several unmarried women notice him at the same time but none say anything. The women in question are Sister Blue Shoes, Sister Black Shoes, Sister Red Shoes, and Sister High Heels. All are single, over 25 and quite available and hopeful for a husband.
The next week they look up and notice him again. The brother is alone again---, and no ring on his left finger. And he's not bad to look at either. On top of that, he's toting a bible that looks quite worn. He must be serious about the Lord!
Week three, he appears again, Bible in hand, eyes focused on the pastor. Week four.......he must be a new member of the church and he sits in the same general area week after week after week. But there is only one problem. He's not very sociable. He just keeps his eyes on the service! Church is over and the pastor says, as you departs, hug your neighbor. And wouldn't you know it he turns around and hugs Sister Blue Shoes. Then as he heads for the door, he smiles at sister Red Shoes and waves goodbye to Sister Black Shoes. As he heads out towards his car, he politely begins a conversation with Sister High Heels who is walking in the same direction and wishes her a pleasant day as she arrives at her car. Brother Unmarried gets into his car, turns onto his favorite gospel station, and heads home.

He arrives home, walks through the door and immediately calls his fiancée (Sister Chosen) who is presently in her last year of medical school in Alabama. He loves her dearly. They have known each other since 7th grade. The brother starts to reminisce as her telephone rings. He remembers the first day he ever saw her. She was new to the school and she walked in with her hair in a pony tail, braces, and a beautiful smile. Everyone loved her bubbly personality and she became popular instantly. And he was so surprised how quickly she transitioned in the new school and new neighborhood. Of course, it really excited him that from day one, she made it clear that she liked him too and they officially became girlfriend and boyfriend within weeks of her arrival.  

 They have been inseparable ever since. When they were teens they joined the same church, same choir and all the same youth groups. While many of their friend’s pre-teen crushes ended, theirs endured. They attended the same high school, went to the prom together, and attended the same college. They completed their four years of college and she went on to medical school while he went on to graduate school. That was the first time they had been separated but the distance only drew their hearts closer together. They agreed that after she completed medical school they would marry.

So Brother Unmarried decided that he would go ahead and get his two year Master's degree while the love of his life, Sister Chosen, completed her four year medical degree. After getting his Master's he started to work and wait for Sister Chosen to complete her studies. Fortunately she will graduate in just 7 more months. Wow, Time’s flying. He already has purchased the ring and will present it to her on her graduation day. The wedding plans are complete!
Hello....
The sound of Sister Chosen's voice awakens him from his daydream. He goes on to tell her about the fact that he is enjoying his new job and that he has found a good church. In fact, he is thinking about joining but wants to wait for her to come to town so she can visit the church and see whether or not she likes it. They talk for another half hour and they end the conversation. He smiles to himself, thanking the Lord for such a wonderful
woman!

MEANWHILE in Sister Blue Shoes' House........
Sister Blue Shoes has been excited for the past several weeks. She just cannot stop thinking about Brother Unmarried. And she cannot stop meditating on the fact that out of all the women in the church whom he could have hugged, he actually hugged her! No, that could not possibly be coincidence. No way. That was fate! The Lord led him to sit in front of her that Sunday and it must have been the Lord who led him to turn around and hug her! Sister Blue Shoes cannot contain her excitement a moment longer.
She calls her best friend. Check out the conversation:
Sister Blue Shoes: Girrrrl, you are going to be a maid of honor soon!
Best Friend: What's going on, Blue Shoes?
Sister Blue Shoes: That brother I was telling you about---the single
brother who's been attending church every Sunday. Girl, he was sitting beside a single woman in church today. In fact he was surrounded by single women but when the pastor said for us to hug our neighbor, he hugged me.
Can you believe that? He could have hugged the sister who was sitting right beside him but he chose to hug me. ME, girl!
Best Friend: Now, that is nobody but the Lord!
Sister Blue Shoes: I know! And the strangest feeling went through me as I was hugging him. I felt like I was hugging my husband! It's God. He spoke to me and told me that I was hugging my husband!
Best Friend: I stand in agreement with you on that!
Sister Blue Shoes: He's mine. I claim him in the name of Jesus. I know he's mine!

Meanwhile, in Brother Unmarried's house....
Brother Unmarried is still thinking about his fiancée, Sister Chosen. He wants to call her back and talk some more but it's getting late and the phone bill is going to be astronomical again this month! He thinks about it and....oh, well. Fifteen more minutes won't hurt. Before he knows it, he's calling his future queen yet again!

And in Sister Black Shoes' House, another Scenario happened….
Dear Diary, I just met my future husband this week. I had been checking him out for the past several weeks. I had a feeling in my spirit that he was my husband when I first laid eyes on him but it was confirmed today. As we were exiting the church, he looked me right in the eyes and waved at me!!!!!!!!!!! Whew! Now, of all the women in that church, he waved at me. It's interesting because he waved in a very familiar manner, as though he has known me for years. YES, this is my ordained mate, I just know it.

And in Sister Red Shoes' House.........
Hey, mom! Guess what! My future husband smiled at me today in church! Yep, it's that guy I told you about. He's been coming to church for the past few weeks. I knew he was my husband the moment I looked at him but today he actually smiled at me on our way out of the church. Can you believe that? All those gorgeous women in church but he did not smile at any of them. He
smiled at ME!!!!!!!!

And in Sister High Heels' House......
Sister High Heels: Hey Prophetess Angie, I stopped by to speak to you because something serious happened today! Do you remember about a year ago you prophesied to me that I would meet my husband when I least expected to? Guess what? I met him today. You were right!!!

Prophetess Angie: Yes, as a matter of fact, I believe you are going to be married within the next year! What happened, girl?
Sister High Heels: The next year???!!! Lord, I need to sit down because I'm so overwhelmed I might fall out!
Prophetess Angie: Let me get you some juice, Just be calm.
Sister High Heels: For the past several weeks a very handsome gentleman has been sitting in the section of the church that I always sit in. It's funny because as big as that church is, why is he sitting in my section, way up there in the balcony?

Prophetess Angie: You don't even have to finish your sentence. As I was praying for you last weekend, I sensed that you were about to meet your husband. You met him, didn't you?!
Sister High Heels: YES!!!!

Prophetess Angie: As I was praying for you, I saw his face. He has medium brown skin, is handsome, and under 6 feet tall, right?
Sister High Heels: Girl, YES! He is about 5'10" in height, slender, dresses in really nice suits, is very clean cut. You saw him?

Prophetess Angie: Sure did. I saw him in a vision. He was walking beside you...
Sister High Heels: What! Girl that is exactly what happened in church! Your vision was right. Of all the women he could have chosen to walk to their cars, he walked me to my car. I cannot even remember what we talked about because my heart was beating so fast. And I did not even ask him his name...

Prophetess Angie: We are going out tomorrow looking for wedding dresses. We claim him for you! Don't tell anybody else because they will think you are crazy but we are going to start your wedding plans tomorrow!!!!!
Sister High Heels: Get me some tissues. I am about to cry....

Meanwhile, in Brother Unmarried's House..........
Brother Unmarried: I cannot wait for you to get here in town. I just miss you so much.........
Sister Chosen: I look forward to seeing you too. Thank God I'm almost through with medical school. We then can proceed with our life plans...
Brother Unmarried: Yes, ma'am! I hope our future children look just like you. You are the most beautiful woman on the entire planet......
