SUNDAY SCHOOL HYMN

  1. O Sunday School, on the Lord’s day,
    O how I love Thee well,
    I am happy, it makes me glad
    To rejoice at Thy birth.

    Thy friend friendship suits me well,
    Both young and will sing Thy song,
    We long for Sunday School.
  3. O Sunday School, on the Lord’s day,
    Christ was Thy first teacher,
    The Holy Spirit, great teacher,
    Does manifest in thee.

    That God, the Father Almighty,
    Poured His blessing on Thee

    Though the sun be so bright,
    Or if the clouds be black with rain,
    I’ll be in Sunday School.
  6. O Sunday School, on the Lord’s day,
    I rejoice to see Thee,
    Will thou pass over me today?
    Without my being blest?

MEMORY VERSE: “There are, it may be, so many kinds of voices in the world, and none of them is without signification”. –1Corinthians 14:10.

BIBLE PASSAGE: PSALM 29:3-9

3 The voice of the LORD is upon the waters: the God of glory thundereth: the LORD is upon many waters.

4 The voice of the LORD is powerful; the voice of the LORD is full of majesty.

5 The voice of the LORD breaketh the cedars; yea, the LORD breaketh the cedars of Lebanon.

6 He maketh them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a young unicorn.

7 The voice of the LORD divideth the flames of fire.

8 The voice of the LORD shaketh the wilderness; the LORD shaketh the wilderness of Kadesh.

9 The voice of the LORD maketh the hinds to calve, and discovereth the forests: and in his temple doth every one speak of his glory.

INTRODUCTION
We live in a world of voices (1Corinthians 14:10): demonic voices, the voice of friends, voice of enemies, the voice of those who love us, the voice of those who hate us the voice of God, etc. Also different voices come with different impacts. (1Corinthians 4:10b says there is not one of those voices without meaning. It is therefore experience for all believers to learn about the impact of the voices they listen to and the value of listening to God.

LESSON OUTLINE

  1. THE IMPACTS OF VOICES
  2. THE VALUE OF LISTENING TO GOD

THE IMPACTS OF VOICES

The voice you listen to affects your outcome. For instance,
Eve listened to the serpent (Genesis 3:1-7),
Samson listened to Delilah (Judges 16:6,17)
Amnon listened to Jonadab (2Samuel 13:4-14)
Saul of tarsus listened to Jesus Christ (Acts 9:1-6). Therefore, who you give your ears to effects:

  1. Your mindset and invariably your thoughts pattern (Proverbs 23:7).
  2. Your choices and decision-making (1Kings 12:6-14).
  3. Your emotion, feelings and psychological well-being (Numbers 13:32-33, 14:1-4).
  4. Your lifestyle and the steps you take (John 4:25-29).
  5. Your life’s outcome and fulfillment of destiny (Acts 26:13-16; Jeremiah 1:4-5).

THE VALUE OF LISTENING TO GOD

  1. A fulfilling life and destiny. The most important choices you will have to make in life are choices that will require God to assist you to have a fulfilled life. For example, the choice of who to marry (Proverbs 18:22), the business/career to pursue (Jeremiah 1:5), the place to live or settle (Genesis 26:1-3), etc. These are decisions that will require God’s assistant as you put your trust in Him (Psalm 37:4; Proverbs 3:5-6).
  2. The fulfillment of life’s purpose and vision. This is the reason for living as a whole. It seemed God was telling Jeremiah ‘I planned for you, I prepare for you, and organised what you should do with your life before you came’ (Jeremiah 1:5) in Acts 26:12-19′ Paul narrates the details of his own assignment in life.
  3. Supernatural supply or divine provision. As long as God is the one leading, you do not need to struggle for pasture (Psalm 23:1-2). God knows where your supply is, and He will direct you to the right place (1Kings 17:2-6; Matthew 17:27; Luke 5:4-7)
  4. Supernatural power and authority. The voice of God comes with power (Psalms 29:4). When God speaks to you, power rushes into you (Ezekiel 37:1-10). There is a boldness that is backed up by the voice of the Lord (Exodus 3:1-10). You can face the future without fear (Genesis 12:1-4).
  5. Victory over enemy’s forces including afflictions, battles, or conspiracies (Isaiah 30:31; 1Samuel 30:1-8, 18-19; 2Samuel 5:17-21). Many people are victims of battles, only because they do not know what God is saying and what they ought to do.
  6. Escape from danger and disaster (Proverbs 22:3; 1Samuel 23:7-13)
  7. The importation of divine wisdom. When God guides, you cannot be foolish (Proverbs 1:5). If you are hearing from God, your wisdom is not contestable (Luke 21:15). You need divine wisdom to handle the affairs of Life successfully (Ecclesiastes 10:10)
  8. Existence in peace and tranquility. One of the top secret of Peace is the voice of God (Psalm 85:8). In Psalm 23:2 ‘….beside still waters’. talks about peace, not ‘troubled Waters’ When you are disconnected from what God is saying you become troubled and worried about everything.

CONCLUSION
The voice you listen to determines your direction and destination. To end well, listen to the voice of God.
