    Is God Calling You?

    Contributed by Ezekiel Ette on Jan 14, 2018

    We all were called to serve God through the works of our hands and our intellect. No matter what we do, we are responding to our calling. God still calls each of us but we do not know how to receive God's message because we do not recognize the call.

    The idea of calling or vocation outside of the priesthood is a protestant idea that came with the reformation. It was believed then, as at now, that we are called to different vocations in life and whatever we do is a result of our obedience to a divine plan. Therefore the carpenter was in service ...read more

    Each of us has been called by God to fulfill a purpose, to fulfill a spiritual calling in this life. And the Calling process can be divided into 3 steps. Discovery - Decision - Action. May you proclaim as Samuel "Speak, for your servant is listening".

    For those not familiar with an Anglican Service; there are four Scripture Readings before the Sermon.

    Listening, hearing and acting on the call of God.

    “Eh?” 1 Samuel 3:1-11, 19 Raise your hand if you sometimes have a hard time hearing God or discerning God’s voice. Interruptions define our lives, do they not?

    Listen To The Lord!

    Are you a good listener? Not listening many times means you’re going to miss something important. How about listening to the Lord? Are you a good listener? Samuel is a good example for us to follow when it comes to listening to the Lord. How does the Lord speak to us? Why should we listen?

    Are you a good listener? Maybe instead of asking you, I should ask your spouse, or your children, or your parents. Are you a good listener? There are certainly some people that are better listeners than others and you’ve probably experienced that in your life. A person who is a sympathetic ear, ...read more

    God seems to love the "Quiet Game" and seems to be the world's most skilled player. How can you hear Him when He seems to be so quiet?

    Quiet Games Pt. 1 - The Silent Treatment I. Introduction It is a scam. A ploy. I am convinced it is nothing more than a well disguised trick to get a momentary respite and break from the barrage of sound that emanates from a classroom full of rowdy 2nd graders.

    Do you really have God’s call upon your life? If so, what has He disclosed to you? What are you doing about it? Have you consulted your mentor or pastor about it? Are you completely captivated by God?

    Opening Illustration: Narrative of how my call came about. Introduction: In the focus text, Samuel lives in a precarious time when “the word of the LORD was rare” (verse 1). This is a continuation of the problem at the end of book of Judges where “all the people did what was ...read more

    The phrase He that hath an ear let him hear appears 14 times in the Bible this is interesting because the number 14 is considered to be a symbol of salvation and deliverance. The 14th day of the 1st Hebrew month called Nisan is the Passover.

The first is:- There once was a man that whispered, “God, speak to me.” And a meadowlark sang. But the man did not hear. So the man yelled, “God, speak to me!” and ...read more

    This sermon examines 1 Samuel 3:1-20, the story of Samuel and Eli, and gives lessons on, what defined them, as a dying priesthood, and a rising prophet. These lessons can be applied to our Churches, and lives today, which can result in what spiritual impact we will have on today's world.

    AWAKE OR SLEEPING 1 Samuel 3:1-20 In our text we see a transition from a Priesthood who had taken God for granted, to a rising Prophet, who would awaken a Nation. From Eli to Samuel. Eli means to ascend or "lofty". There are two ways to look at him, as a Priest he was called to ascend ...read more
