GOD WHISPERS

I’m sure you have definitely said these things before, ‘does God really talk to us?’ ‘something told me…’ ‘can we really hear God when he speaks?’ ‘how does God speak to us?’ ‘is it audible?’ ‘is it a small still voice?’ ‘is it very clear?’.

 

Over the generations many people have wondered whether God speaks to us audibly and how often does He speak and whether He hears us at all when we speak to me. Thing is our God speaks to us but many at times pastors and preacher men have confused us and they make us feel that it if us who don’t hear God when He speak. Some say listen to that small still voice.

 

So does God speak at all? Oh yes He does! What God does usually is to influence our thoughts, He drops ideas, thoughts into our minds. That’s why many people say something told me that this and this, that and that. God himself does speak but not so often as He influences. I prefer to call those influences whispers. Of course God speaks audibly too to people when it is major, He needs to be heard audibly.

 

Preacher men will tell you many times that God told me that this and that are going to be like this. Many times it was so much of an audible voice, it was a whispers, God pushing thoughts into their. They tell us it is God because they know where the thought is coming from so I think it is high time we stopped saying something told me… So don’t go thinking if God speaks to the preacher man why not me, well guess what He does whisper into your mind every single day

 

Oh surely the devil also pushes thoughts into your mind but just like God’s influences we make a choice, a free will to say we will go along with what came into our minds. That’s how God design it, it is your final decision to make, go with God’s whisper or the devil’s.

 

A man of God, Myles Munroe in his book “Understanding the Purpose and  Power of Prayer” wrote as that that time he had heard God audibly only three times in his entire Christian walk but most at times God influences his thoughts, God whispers into his mind.

So God whispers every day, are you listening?

 

POEM TO THE MEMORY OF JOEL KOJO KOPPOE (My Grandfather)

This poem here wasn’t written by me…it was written in honour of my grandfather for his funeral.

DEATH IS ONLY A PART OF LIFE

 

We enter this world

            from “THE GREAT UNKNOWN”

And God gives each SPIRIT

             a form of its own

And endows this form

             with a heart and a soul

To spur man on

            to his ultimate goal…

For all men are born

             to RETURN as they CAME

And birth and death

             are in essence the same

And man is but born

             to die and arise

For beyond this world

             in beauty there lies

The purpose of death

             which is but to gain

LIFE EVERLASTING

             in GOD’S GREAT DOMAIN

And no one need make

             this journey alone

For GOD has promised

              to take care of his own.

What were they THINKING? #2

The economic conditions in the world today were created by man. God didn’t make them; man made them so. God made man; man made slaves. God made man and gave him more than enough for himself but man made poverty. In God’s plan, no man should be poor. The human thinking is that if everyone were rich it wouldn’t be good…

Life consists of what man is thinking about all day

The Dream of Life

I had no reason to want to live

Happiness was not a consistent factor

I had no passion for life

Love came surely from family and friends

I had no purpose in life

I felt unfulfilled

In the nights I did not want to wake up

I prayed to God;

To prevent all my worthless living

To make me not see the light of day in flesh

But He never did

Then I had a dream

A dream that my creator wanted me

To be the leader of His people;

A dream that pushed me on

A dream that gave me a purpose for life

A dream that granted me the desire to keep on living

Now!

I no longer want to die

I surprisingly do not want to sleep for long

For there’s a lot to be done

I have a mission to fulfill

If I die without doing it

Then I would be useless

He did not give me a reason to only live on

I had a reason

To give my all

And now to die for the cause

A cause I will die for trying

My time is short

Three score and ten and a few more

I have a lot to do

So I pray for life each day

And He grants it to me
