His voice is all that should matter to every believer.
Bible reading
But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid. And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water. And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus.
Matthew 14:27-29 (KJV)
This is a parishioner of Steemchurch International Ministry writing from Nigeria parish @sc-n.
I have a short and precise word for us today about Jesus the son of God whom God has given authority over all his creations because he’s the heir of all things.
The Bible talks about how that the name of Jesus has be lifted above every other names that in his name every knee shall bow.
Jesus is the leader who leads to total freedom.
A time came during the time of the chosen of God called Israel, when God brought them out of the land of slavery to give them an enabling environment to serve and worship, he prepared Moses for that work, but all those formals served as the shadows of Christ’s ministry which Moses testified and prophesied about concerning Christ saying; the Lord thy God will raise up unto thee a Prophet from the midst of thee, of thy brethren, like unto me; unto him ye shall hearken; According to all that thou desiredst of the Lord thy God in Horeb in the day of the assembly, saying, Let me not hear again the voice of the Lord my God, neither let me see this great fire any more, that I die not. And the Lord said unto me, They have well spoken that which they have spoken. I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him. And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not hearken unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require it of him. Deuteronomy 18:15-19 (KJV)
God himself confirmed that Jesus is the one that he has sent with words of his grace which we should follow. While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him. Matthew 17:5 (KJV)
The essence of this article is to edify your faith and trust to Christ Jesus who has given us his word like he told Peter to come and walk on waters, this is something that is obviously against nature that a man should walk on the sea without any support but yet Peter having such understanding that the voice that told him to come is faithful to his words, not minding or considering the outcome and the consequences of following the voice that called him, he jumped on the water!
Steemchurch International Ministry just like Peter have decided to follow the voice of Christ Jesus.
And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified.
Our ministry is for the glory of God and not for the glory of any man, we’re following Christ not minding what we see because we walk by faith and not by sight, we may not know how or the next thing that God through his spirit may want us do, but one thing is certain; he that has called us is faithful to the end!
Edifying word that I received from our leader today.
I'm waiting for what God is going to do at this time, I do not know how, but I know what he's going to do, I'm walking like Peter on the waters following the voice of Jesus, without hesitation, be Whatever the circumstance, what you see, the logic, I believe God to the last, the dream of steemchurch is not the glory of man but the glory of the living God.
Let's move forward.
MAY THE PEACE OF GOD ABIDE WITH YOUR SOULS AMEN.
