The Voice Speaks by Pr. Joseph Kinyanjui

Conversation leads to action and lack of conversation then communication is denied. Almost everything that takes place it has been deliberated and an agreement of a kind reached. We need to value above everyone, everything and everywhere that dialogue with God. Prayers work on us as well as pouring to God while the Word of speaks to us. Both prayer and Word go hand in hand and the communication is achieved. In this year purpose to pray your life.

How can I effect my prayers?

Pray in confidence

• 1John 5:14 “This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us.”

Don’t be in prayers for the sake but be persuaded that God will come thru for sure He will.

Rely on God’s strength

• 1Chronicles16:11 “Look to the LORD and his strength; seek his face always.”

Come to God in full dependence on Him. Do what He says while you seek Him.

Available in prayers

• Eph.6:18 “And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.”

Spend every time in prayer. Talk to God about all things and thru this you will be in the will of God.

Yearn that all your issues are sorted from prayers

• 2Chronicles 7:14 “if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.”

Find your answers in God thru talking to Him about it. As you deal with your enemies let God handle them.

Call to action

Organize your time that you will spend as much with the Lord as possible. Before you engage in a thing of the day how about saying a brief prayer. How about training to pray by tracking how many times you did it in a day. Keep praying all your life.

2 Chronicles 20:1-29

In the world of technology that we are going through today there is much about your position in terms of network coverage.

Stay in the network of God and you will access His victory in your life.

2Chronicles 18:4,5,15

All of us have an strong desire to make it in life. No one is going for failure but success. For one to unwrap his or her victory there is always a challenge to be met and this must be successful too. No man is an island and when we are amongst people we must be aware of the content of their hearts so that they do not mislead us. Such a person was king Ahab misled by a bunch of prophets.

How can one fight victoriously?

Seek the Lord - v.4

• Prayer is so vital to the believers life -Jer.33:3; Matt.7:7-8

• The word of God is irreplaceable-Joshua 1:8

Before coming to a conclusion or consultation with anyone on anything do you spend time in the Lord for guidance? Our Father is just a prayer away, do the prayer and pray His word.

Surround yourself with credible people - v.1-4

• Jehoshaphat was a king who feared God, he advised on seeking the Lord-v.4

• Micaiah was also a credible prophet not a puppet:

a. Micaiah had not compromised before-v.7

b. The messenger never compromised him-v.12

c. King Ahab didn’t compromise him-v.15

d. Zedekiah didn’t appeal to him either - v.23

The people who are of the same rank as you can only seek what you can give and likelihood of lying to you is high. Have an authority that can rebuke you and call you back on track especially of the Lord. Good company will push to the next level - Psalm 1; 1Cor.15:33

Sail in the Word of God-v.

• Ahab rejected Micaiah Word-v.17

• Jehoshaphat sort the Lord in the battle-v.31

• Ahab died and lost the kingdom and the battle-v.33-34

The word of God is unchanging and only you as a person should align with it. Failure to will cost you dearly as Ahab lost everything. You cannot amend or revise the Word of God as it is as God is-immutable(unchanging). The word must fulfill the purpose -Isaiah 55:10-11

Conclusion

So as not to abort the mission of God in our lives let us seek of Him all the more by testing every spirit that we are not misled - 1John 4:1

Victory is our portion TODAY and FOREVER MORE.

John 2:1-12

Life is all about having to achieve the purpose as intended by God. A satisfying life is that one which has progress and achievements as one lives on. Each one of us desires that our dreams and visions can be accomplished. This can only be if Christ the author of life is present in one’s life.

What can lead to this achievement?

𝗘𝗺𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗲 𝗛𝗶𝘀 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗱 - Hear and Do His Word-v.5-8

• Be obedient to Jesus-v.5

• Have faith and do not doubt His Word - v.6-8

Jesus does not need your opinion but your license of surrender that He can make you. Obey His word and your life will be His will.

𝗗𝗲𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗹𝗶𝗳𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗛𝗶𝗺 - Let Him make your life-v.9-12

• He changed water to sweet wine

• Allow Christ to work on your life and you can be assured it will only be better

• Jesus did miracles and your life needs to experience a miracle now -v.11

Nothing is impossible with Christ, you only need to believe and allow Him. If Christ can work on water that is only for a season how about your life as His child? Believe and He will do it.

He is a MIRACLE WORKING GOD.

God will do all that He has promised and He will not disappoint. Just as He was with Joshua so is He is with you.

Family in Prayers

1 Thessalonians 5:17

Pray continually

Family is the institution of God and thus it is not strange that it is opposed and attacked for this is what the devil does. It is the platform through which God manifest His blessings and power. It’s out of family that life is made and the creation of God is managed and stewarded. This is why as a family we must be seriously connected with God.

How can Family perfect her prayer life?

1. Formed of God - Realize that your source is God

• Remain connected to the source- Gen.2:18 “The Lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.”

• “Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children of one’s youth. Blessed is the man who fills his quiver with them! He shall not be put to shame when he speaks with his enemies in the gate.” – Psalm 127:3-5

2. Alert/aware of the enemy-Realize that the enemy is real

• Devil attacks establishment of God- Gen.3:1ff “Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden’?”

• Keep fighting-1Pet.5:8 “Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.”

3. Made to prosper. Realize that you are not to settle for less

• God made a rich family-Gen.1:28 “God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky and over every living creature that moves on the ground.”

• Long life-“Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long in the land that the Lord your God is giving you.” – Exodus 20:12

4. Impact through service. Realize the purpose of the family is to serve God

• Pray for your family to serve God- Joshua 24:15 “But if serving the Lord seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you are living. But as for me and my household, we will serve the Lord.”

5. Labor for the family. Realize that the kingdom of God suffers violence and your family must make it

• Forgiving is not easy yet it must happen-“Bear with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgive each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive.” – Colossians 3:13

• Unity must be pursued-“How good and pleasant it is when God’s people live together in unity!” – Psalm 133:1

6. Yearn for prayers. Realize that nothing happens except by prayer

• Prayer is unending in life. 1Th.5:17 “Pray without ceasing.”

• To love is not easy yet marriage and family is founded on it-“Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her.” – Ephesians 5:25

Conclusion

All families will function only if they are connected with God for unless we abide in the lord there is no life.

Psalm 27:13-14

I remain confident of this:

I will see the goodness of the Lord

in the land of the living.

Wait for the Lord;

be strong and take heart

and wait for the Lord.

Prepare not to be ashamed by being sure of your trust. Your trust must rest on that hope that is unshakeable which can be none other but God. Keep your faith on God and He will not disappoint. When you trust then you can invest in God’s kingdom. Remember that blessings are as a result of service and this comes when you trust God.
