WHEN GOD SPEAKS.

 


Walking down the hall way of the hospital with the result of my pregnancy test once again negative, I didn't know how exactly to feel because it's not the first time actually but oh well .


As I flagged down a moving cab and entered, a lot ran through my mind I couldn’t hear anything asides from my thoughts and what the devil brought to me. The driver called my attention twice and when I finally answered he then said to me “madam, you know say God no dey dead abi?” Looking confused I asked him why he said so, he then replied “I just say make I remind you because your face no dey happy at all” as if it was not enough he went further to say “I know say wetin you see again dey pain but no be by your power you go do am, when you reach house pray to God” I was shocked because he spoke like he knew what was wrong with me, i just casually told him thank you and continued my thinking, as he dropped me at my gate it dawned on me that it was GOD that spoke through him to remind me of his existence and to pray, I instantly felt joyful cos I was reminded that God had me in heart and cares about me.


Getting to the house, I went straight to my room, locked myself in and wept all through, I couldn’t even pray, I kept on weeping until I fell asleep.


I woke up to a knock on the door (it was my husband) I quickly washed my face and opened the door, he hugged me immediately he saw me and I felt comfortable again. After months passed by I decided to go to God cause I was already fed up, days went by, weeks went by but I buried myself in prayer, thankfully my husband had a business trip and I was on leave so it was easy for me. I prayed for 2 weeks until one day I decided to go to the orphanage, I went with clothings, food and gifts, it felt like I was doing something that I was called to do, for once in my life I felt fulfilled and happy.


As I went round and cheered some children up a child walked up to me and said “Mummy, your child has come" I looked at this child with confusion and just smiled at him and said okay, thank you. I didn’t know what he was talking about but in my mind I casually said Amen to it.


After a week, the child’s word still rang in my head and I kept on thinking of how true it could be after 4 years of marriage and no child, I decided to pray about it and after a month it happened, I was pregnant i was so excited and so was my family. 


“Finally” I said on my kneels thanking God, I then asked myself why God didn’t speak to me through it all, then and there I had to reflect on my two encounters, one with the driver and the other with the little child at the orphanage, it was then I realized that it was all God speaking to me through them.



Hey lovelies, 

I hope you enjoyed this short story, from the story you would understand that when God speaks everything obeys, when he speaks he doesn’t necessarily need to speak to you in a still voice because he can also speak to you through anyone, it could be a stranger or someone you know, he speaks through his word too, that’s why we need to be sensitive in the spirit to know when God is speaking to you, he speaks to us differently, he can use another person to speak to you and for me he can speak to me in his still voice, just ensure you stay connected at all time and be sensitive to know when God is speaking.


Thank you for reading🤗, let me know what you think or your experience in the comment section or send a mail to thegabbytable@gmail.com to share your story.

Love y’all.

Bye.

THE FEAR OF THE UNKNOWN.

  Hey lovelies, Happy weekend. So, to today’s discussion, I’m sure you’re wondering what exactly it's going to about well think less, stay tuned and read on 😉 . The fear of the unknown is usually something that gets in the way of a lot of us getting things done, trying new things, going outside of our comfort zone and everything new or different. It’s not easy to do things without being scared of what could happen, the what if’s and all the clauses, one sure thing is that this all brings about anxiety. I usually say something, everything in this life is a risk, sleeping is a risk but it doesn't make us not to sleep, driving is a risk but it doesn’t make us not to drive, working is a risk but it doesn’t make us stop working, business is a risk but it doesn’t stop us from investing and going into other lines of business and having several streams of businesses  and the list goes on and on of risks in life that we still engage in. A lot of the people some of us look up to or hea...

SIGNIFICANT HALLMARKS OF GOD'S MESSAGE.

Hey lovelies, Happy weekend, I hope we’re all doing well, staying safe, and trying to get ourselves back together(emotionally), let’s not forget to keep our hopes, faith and strength up no matter how hard things get, it might take longer but the land would be green ❤️ . Last weekend I wrote about “When God Speaks” and the importance of the spiritual sensitivity to know when God is talking. Today you are going to reading about how to know it’s God speaking. NB: this was inspired by my daily devotional  🤗 . It's important to hear from God or communicate with God but it’s also important to know when it’s God who is speaking. There are five significant hallmarks of God’s messages to us. They’re a means of determining whether the voice we’re hearing is truly the voice of God. If you have a question about whether a message is from God, line it up against these criteria’s: 1.  The message must be consistent with the Word of God, the Bible.   God will never tell us to engage in ...

TRACING THE DOTS.

  Hey lovelies, Happy new month 🤗 , I pray for more of God’s evident presence this month in Jesus name. Don’t forget to always pray without ceasing. Today’s topic of discussion is sounding like some CID    or Sherlock Holmes kind of thing  😂  but I hope after reading this you try and trace the dots if you feel like you’ve lost the touch. Tracing the dots or in a better way getting it right.  In life as humans and as Christians we default, of course, we aren’t perfect so we have to default at a point in time or the other. Defaulting isn’t the issue but knowing when and where you’ve defaulted and correcting the default or making sure it doesn’t happen again is always the issue. A lot of times we hear people say things like “I used to be a prayer person before but now I don’t know what happened, I can’t even explain” does that person sound like you? Are you feeling that way?   At any point in life where you have to say these words have it in mind t...
