MATURITY WITHOUT MATURING Are you matured? ... This was the question my best friend asked me, and I replied Yes and he went forward to say, If you claim to be matured in anyway, did you really mature?......read down! I pondered on this question for sometime and the only thing that I could think of was my maturity in age which is the mentality of many of us. I told him yes that am an adult and with a smile, he explained; Maturity is all about subtraction first and then addition, this is because, if you don’t remove the unwanted ones, there will be no space for addition of wanted ones. I cannot claim to be matured if I don’t shed off old things and add new ones which must be of advantage to me. NB: there are different kinds of maturity according to the stage you are in life. A plant cannot undergo maturity without shedding old leaves so as to sprout out new ones and create space for the stem to be established. Maturity is all about sacrifice and selflessness.you must sacr

MY PRIDE Have you ever wondered what your biggest asset is in life? Today, while in the kitchen, I pondered on what I could call my pride and it occurred to me that its…... read down! Most times, when I want to make use of the word ‘pride’, the negative meaning jumps into my head and I drop the word. If the question, what is your pride is been asked, answers like my virginity, my wife, my son, my husband, my mum, my dad, and some other people will go to the extent of mentioning materialistic things. Trust me, all these are very nice and they floated into my mind when this question popped into my head today but I wasn’t certain of them all and at a point, I was confused if I even had a pride. Then, I decided to direct the question to the one person who knows me more than myself, My best friend. When I did so, he replied with a question saying, “what type of pride do you want to have, the one that can be taken away or one that can’t be taken away?, I was more confused at this

LONELY HEART And I got up from bed at about 8pm, not hungry but cold. The coldness was weird because I was actually sweating, then I realized that I was cold in my heart. Coldness of the heart stands for loneliness. At that moment I searched for a friend to speak to and realized that none was available and the available ones were just not a choice. At this moment, I was left between guiding my faith or letting my feelings guide me. I picked up my phone and went through all the social media platforms and was more bored out, I strolled to and fro, in and out of the whole rooms in my house looking for something to distract my lonely heart but was disappointed. Then I resolved to speaking to the only one who was ever ready to listen to me. My best friend and lover, one who might seem invisible to others but  visible   to me, the only one that knows me more than myself, the only one whose voice I hear every second of my life but sometimes do not listen to it. And I spoke to my bes

HATRED FOR TRUTH    Firstly, what do you think is ‘the truth’? The word truth can be defined as the state or quality of being true to someone or something. But ‘the truth’ is no other person than our lord Jesus Christ. Here, we will be talking about the truth as a person of Christ; In the bible, Christ referred to himself as the way, the truth and the life. This can be proportionately put that when you detest the true statement in a matter and uphold the wrong one, you are also a hater of Christ. When we pervert justice in the court and our different leadership positions, we persecute the truth which is Christ. Another dimension of hating the truth is when we don’t obey Christ’s rules, when we take laws into our hand in judging people and laying curses on them. When we persecute the church and the servants of God in them, we hate the truth and we don’t stop at just hating him, we fight to murder it after we must have crucified Him the first time. This Is because, if you

THE WAR OF OUR TIME 2 Previously on D-voice, we talked about the war we are facing in our time. There, we defined war and stated that the war we are experiencing in this our time is the war against the church and Christ. Today, we are going to highlight the ways these wars are being waged against the church and Christ; BOMBING AND KILLINGS IN THE CHURCH; This particular issue is what everyone has witnessed and kept quiet over. The Christians are been massacred and burnt down together with their church buildings. This is an inhumane treatment that shouldn’t be heard in our society. The Muslims carryout this act and our government and security agencies are silent towards it. Fellow Christians, let us rise up and say no to this wrong doing by going down on our knees and crying for revival, forming intercessory groups whose prayers will intercede for us and selecting a righteous leader among us who will represent us in elections. This is because, if our leader is a christian

THE WAR OF OUR TIME War which can be defined as the conflict between two parties can occur in so many ways which include;   intra-personal war, inter personal war, intra-ethnic war, inter-ethnic war, national war, international war, etc. Funny enough, the major war that is going on in our time is hardly noticed and tends to be neglected. This war is the war against the church and Christ himself. The world is constantly at war with their maker and creator, trying to prove that they are self made. They intentionally convict and destroy the churches thinking they can put an end to Christianity. The funny truth is that, at the last day, the church of Christ will be established on earth and every other thing anti-Christ will be destroyed.   There are many ways that the world is waging war against the church of Christ and Christ himself. These ways will be discussed in details in our next update . Don’t miss out!! DVOICE! Follow us up on DVOICEE.BLOGSPOT.COM or DVOICE.com.ng

WHO DO YOU SAY HE IS? Rephrased; “WHO DO YOU SAY YOUR CREATOR IS?”   This is a question everyone on earth should answer. This is because, lying behind this question, is the root of all things in the world and beyond. Some people don’t even know that the have a creator, some know they do but don’t know who He is, while very few people know who He is and trust what he can do. The knowledge of who God is affects the activities of every individual. For e.g; if the knowledge of who God is to me is that he is good and loving, my attitude towards people will be good and loving. This is because,I understand my creator and because I carry His image, I act like him. Now, whatever you do in life, if it is not in alignment with your creator’s will and nature, it shows that you either don’t have the full knowledge of your creator or you don’t even know He exists. God is my creator, the lily of the tribe of judah, the mighty man in battle, He is my everything. HOW DO YOU GET THE R

THE THREE MOST IMPORTANT DAYS OF ONE’S LIFE. In life, some people might want to argue the fact that everyday of one’s life should be the most important or they might say that the most important days of one’s life is more than just three days, but gracefully,I hope by reading this piece of article you will be strongly behind me with my opinion. FIRST DAY; The first day in the three most important days of one’s life is also the first day of one’s life or you can say that it is one’s birthday. On this day, the person is brought into the world after much struggle by the mother during child birth. It is a very great day of joy in the family and remains a great day as long as the individual lives. SECOND DAY; Many people might dispute the second day but the truth will not and can not change just because of dispute. The second most important day of one’s life is the day one gives his life to Christ or the day one dedicates his life to his creator. This is because, this stage i

THE MOST BASIC HUMAN RIGHT Human right of the people can be defined as those inalienable privileges that humans enjoy. They are the basic rights and freedoms that all humans should be guaranteed. These human rights according to our constitution include; right to life and liberty, freedom of thought and expression, and equality before the law etc. Funny enough, after stating all these rights, we forgot the most basic human rights we have which is; THE RIGHT TO KNOW JESUS : I know many people are very surprise and amazed at this but yes, this is the most basic human right anyone can enjoy. It did not stop at just knowing Jesus, it goes further to worshiping and doing everything we do in life to please him. Why is this so? This is because, as the products of Jesus, we owe him the duty of bowing at his feet and worshiping him all the days of our life. Have you seen any producer whose products are not loyal and submissive to? Have you ever seen any product who because the

LOVE 3 Still on the topic love, we earlier discussed on the characteristics of love as love being a sacrifice. Today, we are going to talk about another important characteristics of love as love being patient. LOVE IS PATIENT; this can be first illustrated using the utmost love which is the love of God. God’s love for man is patient. Tho we are sinners and have come short of God’s glory,His patient love and grace has not allowed him to destroy us. Though He is our creator and has the power to do all things, He is still very patient with everyone of us and still stretches out his hand to reach to us. This is an exemplary love that everyone should emulate. All of us are patient with ourselves no matter how many times we fail, we just keep trying. Now, if we truly love others as we love ourselves and as we love God, we should also exercise the same level of patience on other people. Love even when correcting, is not forceful and harsh, love corrects with love . For instance,

POSSIBILITIES In our country and societies, many things now look like they have come to stay and cannot be removed again. People have come to accept corruption and so many societal vices as a pattern of living. Parents this days do not care about what their children do to get money, all they need is their own share of the money and the gifts and names that comes with being the parent of a rich child. The quest for money has become the topic of the day and seemly the only option for survival. Guess what? I have a good news for all of us. This good news is the solutions to our problem of corruption and many other cases. But it will cost us a little sacrifice which is prayers and committing our life to Christ. God has promised us dominion over the earth and has fulfilled that promise. This earth is for the righteous not the unrighteous, the only thing we have to do is to commit to prayers and all the things that seems impossible will become possible. More updates coming

LOVE 2 In our previous update on love, we discussed what love is and how we should act in love. Now, we will be talking on the characteristics of love; LOVE IS SACRIFICE: This can be sited biblically and also in human instances. Biblically, love been a sacrifice was practicalized when God the creator of the whole universe sent down his only begotten son to die for the sins of mankind. This type of love can never be found in the human race. God therefore used the death of his son to show us what love means as a sacrifice. This is the utmost sacrifice that has ever taken place on earth since the beginning of mankind. In the human instance; love as a sacrifice can be seen in families where the parents deny themselves of rest and good life in-order to make sure that their children live good. They go as far as selling up their private properties to keep their children comfortable academically and otherwise. Love can also be seen as sacrifice among lovers; here, one of the par
