The world is a noisy place
There are different voices that are daily screaming at you for attention. Voices of criticism, fear, manipulation, deception, other people’s opinions, compromise and discouragement, voices that are trying to turn you into something you are not, introduce you to people you were not supposed to meet and transport you to places you were not supposed to go to. Voices of your painful past and previous mistakes, voices of fear, failure and uncertainty, voices that will try to derail your plans, abort your dreams, delay your destiny and destroy your life, voices that produce confusion, insecurity, hopelessness, shame and worthlessness in your life, voices of emptiness, suicide, unforgiveness and bitterness.
Voices that goes like this: You won’t make it without me, you are useless, you are a fool, you are a failure, you are ugly, you were born to be a criminal, you are a devil, you are a mistake, you are a disgrace, you are born to suffer, there is nothing good about you, you deserve to be abused, you are worthless, you are the worst case, nothing will ever change in your life, you are cursed, you were born in a family of losers, nobody loves you, nobody cares about you, success belongs to others and not you, you are on your own, you are not marriage material, it’s better for you to die, you have no future, it’s over with you, stop dreaming, what you want to do is impossible, you are too old to pursue your dreams and desires, you are damaged goods.
These may be the voices you are familiar to but there is another voice, a voice of what God is saying about you. A voice of transformation, a voice of inspiration, a voice of hope, a voice of faith, a voice of favour, a voice of purpose, a voice of the truth, a voice of your true identity, a voice that keeps saying:
You are the apple of my eye. You are more than a conqueror. You are fearfully and wonderfully made. You can do all things through Christ who strengthens you. You are blessed coming in and going out. You are the head and not the tail. You are above and not beneath. You are blessed with every spiritual blessing in heavenly places by Christ Jesus. You will not die but live and declare the works of God. A voice that continues to say:
Weeping may endure for a night but joy is coming in the morning. God takes pleasure in your prosperity. If you call unto me, I will answer and show you great and mighty things that you do not know. I will never leave you nor forsake you. If you know the truth, the truth will set you free.
A voice that continues to challenge you to be a winner and not a loser, a voice that is meant to awaken your inner strength, a voice that points to your destiny, a voice of your source of life, a voice of the God who created you. The voice of the God who knows you, the God who knows about your purpose, the God who knows your tomorrow, the God who wants to introduce you to you, the God you need to listen to in order to know the truth and not the lies you have been accustomed to hearing.
