We are all called to be ambassadors of Christ, reflecting His love, values, and kingdom in every aspect of life. In this episode, the focus is on the ambassadorial responsibility of believers, which builds on the concept of discipleship. Drawing from 2 Corinthians 5:18-20, it highlights that all believers are called to represent Christ in the world. To be an ambassador of Christ means reflecting H...

What does it truly mean to be a disciple of Christ in the 21st century? It's a commitment to immerse yourself in Christ's teachings, transform your thinking, and apply God's word in every area of your life—whether in business, politics, or personal growth. In this episode, we dive deep into the challenges of modern discipleship, like digital distractions, and how the Church can make discipleship m...

Living as a disciple in the 21st century means more than just believing; it’s about living a Christ-centered life, applying His teachings, and influencing others. Discipleship is a call to transformation and action. In this episode, the focus is on the distinction between being a believer and a disciple. While both are crucial in the Christian faith, discipleship carries deeper significance, as it...

The making of disciples is not the idea of any man or Pastor. It is the idea of Christ, and the system must revolve around Christ. Because it is a commandment from Christ, it carries the backing of Christ. In this episode, the focus is on understanding the characteristics of Jesus’ discipleship system. The episode delves into what it means to live a "Christful" life, one where Christ’s s...

The time has come when the church needs to return to an emphasis on discipleship. And if this is the case, there is a need to understand the original template of discipleship from the scriptures, and that is why we began to look at the discipleship system of Jesus. In this episode, the focus is on understanding the discipleship system of Jesus Christ. Building on the foundation from the previous e...

One thing about discipleship is that it's more than just going to Church and being a member of a Church, or even a worker or a preacher in Church. It is the disciples who were called Christians in Antioch. So the tag Christian was the name the world gave to who they were, which is ‘disciples’. In this episode, the focus is on the discipleship system of Jesus and its centrality in a Christ-cent...

The formation of Christ in us is not the same thing as the infilling of the Spirit. The infilling of the spirit can happen in an instance. But the forming of Christ in us, or what you can call the informing of Christ, is never instant, but a process. This process of Christ being formed in us, is what the system called “Discipleship” sponsors. In this episode, the focus is on the process of discipl...

What does it mean to be a Christian? What does it mean for Christ to be formed in us? This episode delves into the "Christful" life—living a life completely full of Christ. Rooted in Galatians 4:19, it explores how Christianity has become more about identification than embodying the essence of Christ. The Christful life calls believers to move beyond superficial labels and into a deep tr...

Grace works in a mysterious way. Grace qualifies the unqualified, gives an advantage to the disadvantaged, and makes the last the first. It is one thing to know what grace is, and another to understand how grace works.  In this episode, we end our series of teachings on grace by looking into how grace works. 

According to Myles Munroe, the wealthiest place on the planet is the cemetery. This is because in the cemetery lies great potentials, talents, and gifts that are buried without being tapped. God endows people with gifts for a purpose. It is a tragedy to live life without exploiting and maximizing the deposits of God’s gift in you.  In this episode, we explore what we need to know, and how we can m...

Gifts are abilities and endowments that God gives a man or a woman. God endows people with gifts for the fulfillment of their purpose, which is tied to God’s agenda. This is why purpose dictates the gifts that a person can have, and gifts can point to a person's purpose. However, can a gift (given by God) be operated and function without God? Can gifts (including spiritual gifts and ministry g...

One of the ways that God’s grace is manifested are gifts. A gift is simply an ability that God gives to a person. When a gift comes in the form of an ability, that ability is a product of the Holy Spirit working in you to do a particular thing. A gift at work in the life of a person can make him or her do what others cannot do with their natural ability.  In this episode, we begin a series of gift...

Favour is an expression of grace. Just like Jesus grew in favour with God and with men, we can enjoy favour with God and men and grow in it. Men are God’s channels of favour. From the Old Testament to the New Testament, we see God enabling people to find favour with me. However, are the requirements for divine favour in the Old covenant (which the Old Testament speaks of) different from the requir...

Growth is proof of life. Growth is the key to depth and fullness. When it comes to spiritual things, our depth in any experience is a function of our growth in that experience. Bringing this home to the subject of favour, it is not enough to experience favour at one time or the other. There is a place for growing in favor. In Luke 2:52, the bible says “ And Jesus grew in wisdom and stature, and in...

Embedded in the grace package is favour; not just with God but also with men. What is grace, and its meaning and essence, if favour with men is lacking? If you claim to carry grace, and everyone is hostile to you, then what you are carrying is something else and not grace. In Luke 2:52, the bible tells us that Jesus Christ grew in favour with God and with men. So we cannot discount favour with men...

Most of the things that God will do in the life of a man will be done through other men. God remains the source of favour, and men and women are the resources God uses in favoring us. As Christians, we are qualified for divine favour, which is favour that has its source in God. But it is one thing to be qualified for something, and it is another thing to access that thing.  In this episode, we beg...

Favor is one of the manifestations of grace, and when we talk about favor here, the emphasis is on favor with men. No matter how great you are, and how anointed God makes you, favor with men still counts. Men are the conduits or channels of divine favor. God is the source, but men are the channels. So the favor you have with God makes God hear and answer your prayer, and the favor you have with me...

One of the manifestations of grace is favor. To be blessed is to find favor with God. It is a good thing to be blessed. But as important as it is to be blessed and to find favor with God, is finding favor with men. Jesus was God in flesh. Despite being the express image of God, he needed to have favor with men. Luke 2:52 says “And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and me...

One thing about God is that God manifests His glory the most in the midst of darkness, confusion and gloom. It is when everything looks bleak that God comes through, because when God passes through your situation with the blessing, he wants to make his mark clear and undeniable, such that nothing can take the glory.  In this episode of the Voice of Alignment podcast, we end a series of teachings o...

God’s desire for us is to live a life that is filled with his blessing. God has released to us every spiritual blessing that we can ever think of or imagine, in Christ (Ephesians 1:3). We have this blessing in the spiritual realm by virtue of the mercy of God, and we translate these blessings from the spiritual realm to the physical realm by engaging the triggers of the blessing.  One of these tri...

As a believer, you are blessed. It does not matter what your current situation is. Ephesians 1:3 tells us that we are blessed with every spiritual blessing in heavenly places in Christ. But it is one thing to have these blessings in Christ, it is another thing for these blessings to be made manifest in your physical reality. What you need to translate spiritual blessings into tangible expressions...

One thing about the blessing is that it is God’s advantage handed over to a mortal. In other words, a man operating by a blessing enjoys an advantage in life that is traceable to God’s backing. Mercy is the primary justification for the blessing. This is why the most blessed people are not the most perfect people. Acknowledging and engaging mercy is the first and mandatory step to a blessing. Afte...

One of the benefits we have as Christians is that we are blessed. The blessing of God is a part of the New Testament experience which we all have in Christ. Ephesians 1:3 says “ Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ” Although we are all blessed in Christ with every spiritual blessing in heavenly pla...

One of the manifestations of grace is blessings, particularly, the blessing of God. When the blessing of God rests upon a person, what it does is to amplify the results or reward of that person. So the person puts in effort, but gets the result that is multiple times more than the result he or she deserves when assessed from the lens of the physical. One thing about the blessing of God is that it...

The blessing of God is one of the manifestations of grace. If this is a year of enabling grace, and if spiritual blessings or the blessing of the Lord are one of the ways that grace is manifested, it means that in this year, God will be blessing people with the aim of enabling them to do something that is in line with his agenda. In this episode, we explore the blessing of the Lord, as we seek to...
