God created the universe with speaking . . . “Let there be . . . ”
Today, through Jesus Christ, He lives in you. How do you learn to hear Him speaking into your heart, and really know it’s Him?
Kingdom Faith Ministries International is devoted to helping God’s people learn to hear and obey His still small voice. Deuteronomy 8 declares that God’s purpose in having His people wander in the wilderness for 40 years was to learn to hear and live by every word that proceeded from His mouth.
God is still speaking, and like the Israelites, we must learn how to hear Him with confidence and precision. Are you eager to hear what the Lord Jesus Christ is speaking today to those who have discovered how to find Him in the secret place and drink from His fountain of Living Water? He will invite you to sit on His throne if you overcome in the pursuit of hearing His voice (Revelation 3:21).

One day, the Lord spoke to Jeremiah and told him to go to the potter’s house. What a lesson he learned!
Jeremiah watched as the potter made a vessel that had defects. Stopping the project, he reused the same clay to start over again. Then God began to teach Jeremiah how He supernaturally works with nations.
We pick up the story in Jeremiah 18:6-10 followed by a lesson that is global and breathtaking:
O house of Israel, cannot I do with you as this potter? saith the LORD. Behold, as the clay is in the potter's hand, so are ye in mine hand, O house of Israel.
At what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to pluck up, and to pull down, and to destroy it;
If that nation, against whom I have pronounced, turn from their evil, I will repent of the evil that I thought to do unto them.
And at what instant I shall speak concerning a nation, and concerning a kingdom, to build and to plant it;
If it do evil in my sight, that it obey not my voice, then I will repent of the good, wherewith I said I would benefit them.
The world is at such a turning point in exposing evil. Nations have done wickedly in the sight of the Lord. America, Europe, the Middle East, Russia, China - these and more have prevailed in wickedness. Pedophilia, human trafficking, corporate medical greed, satanic ritual abuse, land-grabbing weather warfare, corrupt politicians, wars and rumors of wars, sodomy and moral gender dysfunction… Can wickedness be any more center stage? Yet much of this evil abhorrence is coming to light, and whole nations are beginning to seek change from wickedness.
God is saying to Jeremiah that if the nation repents of their evil, He will repent of His thought to destroy them. He is so willing to change His heart when He sees such change. He so looks for righteousness that even for ten righteous residents God would have spared Sodom and Gomorrah (Genesis 18:32).
Christians everywhere are yearning for righteousness to overcome evil. We touch the heart of God with our prayers and worship, even in the midst of wickedness all around us. Intercessors play a vital frontline roll in repentance that staves off what God could easily do to destroy nations.
Our loving Heavenly Father looks for those who will stand in the gap and pray. He looks for reasons to heal and deliver. Despite the overwhelming magnitude of sin in our land, there is hope as we pray. God is willing to change His mind to deliver those who repent. While idolatry corrupts nations and ties God’s hands from protecting nations, prayer and supplication unties them.
Will you be one of those who touch the heart God as Solomon did when God told him how to heal the land?
If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land. (2 Chronicles 7:14)
God is ready to heal our land, and BRING REVIVAL as He sees the heart of nations change. He wants to love and prosper nations whose God is the Lord.
In this new year as we praise and worship our Lord Jesus Christ, pray for more intercessors to arise, for more laborers in the harvest, and for more righteous leaders to rise up with ears to hear and obey the Lord’s still small voice!
Like the potter in Jeremiah, God is ready to remake our nation as we arise in repentance and prayer. Let God arise as we daily minister to His heart in prayer!
Recently the Lord showed me why we have such favor and anointing with what we teach concerning helping believers to hear His voice. Briefly speaking, it all has to do with establishing the New Covenant with His people. Hallelujah!
The purpose of the New Covenant was to fix a problem with the Old Covenant. The Old Covenant, as described in Exodus and Deuteronomy, required hearing God’s voice and obeying it. His voice came through the anointed revelation word of the prophets. For example, notice Moses and Jeremiah spoke via revelation concerning God’s first covenant:
Not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt; which my covenant they brake, although I was an husband unto them, saith the LORD:
But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.
And they shall teach no more every man his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.
The problem with the Old Covenant was that it was external to the heart. It required three things of His people:
The elements of the New Covenant are almost the same, but with a major difference. Instead of hearing God through prophets, God made it so that every believer in Christ could hear His voice internally on the inside of their heart. God created an upgrade.
As noted above in Jeremiah 31, that upgrade to the covenant specifically targeted each person’s ability to hear, listen, and obey God’s voice internally. The Old Covenant was hampered by their inability to hear (except through the prophets) and their consequent inability to stay faithful in their hearts. Hence God’s upgrade to the New Covenant featured the hearing of His will into their hearts internally. He promised that the day would come when He would write His words into their hearts through hearing His voice as individuals, giving them new hearts in the process. Ezekiel captures God’s yearning desire for such hearts:
What was necessary to make this change? What was necessary to internalize the ability to hear and obey God’s voice? It was the perfect, permanent blood sacrifice of Christ. This enabled the giving of the Holy Spirit to create the internal connection within every heart through Jesus Christ. John 7:36-37 declares that, via the Holy Spirit to those who thirst, that out of your belly shall speak (rheo, from the same root word as rhema) rivers of living water, i.e. speaking in tongues as well as hearing the voice of the Lord (Psalm 29:3, John 7:37-39, Ephesians 5:26, Revelation 21:6).
The covenant obligation of God’s people today is fulfilled when they hear and obey His voice. God writes His word in our hearts as promised long ago in Jeremiah and Ezekiel.
Notice the supernatural favor that grows upon each believer who hears the voice of the Lord. We are not talking about reading, studying, and enjoying Bible verses. We are talking about hearing and fellowshipping in two-way dialogue with Jesus Christ. In fact, it is in exercising the capacity to hear His voice and fellowship with Him that enables our joy to be full (1 John 1:3-5) and which prompts His invitation to believers who overcome in such fellowship and hearing to even sit with Him on his throne (Revelation 3:20-21). Glory to God in the highest!
Bestowing Favor
The favor of God hinges on the relationship we are keeping with Jesus, hearing and obeying His voice so that He can build His church through you. Our blessings increasingly manifest as we draw closer to Him and rest in His presence (Psalm 16:11, Hebrews 4:1-9, 1 John 1:3-5).
What marvelous blessings await those who devote their hearts to hearing and obeying what the Lord desires to share with them in the secret place of the Most High. At KFMI this is our blessing to teach in our schools to pastors, and we are continually grateful in all praise to Him! Mungu Yu Mwema (God is good!).
