God Is Not a Vibe – He’s a Voice

 God Is Not a Vibe – He’s a Voice


There’s a trend going around—God is a vibe. A feeling. A rush. A sweet song during worship. A moment of goosebumps when the choir hits that perfect key. But let’s be real: if God was only a vibe, what happens when the feelings fade?

A lot of young believers today are living from one spiritual high to another. Camp meetings. Conferences. All-night prayers. But between those mountain-top moments, they feel dry, distant, and sometimes even doubtful.

Let me remind you: God is not a mood. He is a voice.

Feelings Are Fleeting. God's Voice Is Faithful.

Elijah, the mighty prophet, once expected God in the wind, the earthquake, and the fire. But God wasn't in the vibe. He was in the still small voice (1 Kings 19:11–13).

Some of us are so used to the noise that we’ve forgotten how to recognize the whisper. And whispers aren't loud—they're intimate. They require you to draw close. That’s where God wants you.

Vibes Can Entertain You. God’s Voice Sustains You.

When Jesus was tempted in the wilderness, He didn't survive by vibes. He said, “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God” (Matthew 4:4).

The enemy will not back down because your last worship session felt good. But he will flee when you start living by what God said, not just what you felt.

How Do I Hear God’s Voice as a Young Person?

1. Quiet Your Soul.

Turn down the noise. Put the phone on silent. God rarely shouts above your playlist or timeline.

2. Open Your Bible.

His written Word is the clearest sound you’ll ever hear from Him. Start in John or Proverbs.

3. Practice Obedience.

God speaks more when He sees you act on what He already said.

4. Stay Accountable.

Godly mentors, spiritual friends, and pastors help you stay tuned to the right frequency.

This Week’s Challenge

Make time every day—even if it’s just 10 minutes—to sit in silence and ask God, “What are You saying to me today?” Then write it down. You may be surprised how clearly He speaks when you’re willing to listen.

Reflection Question:

> When was the last time you heard God—not in a service, but in your personal space? What did He say?

From Church to Showbiz: Why So Many Churches Feel Like Entertainment Halls Today

    From Church to Showbiz: Why So Many Churches Feel Like Entertainment Halls Today Let’s Be Honest… Have you ever walked into a church and felt like you were in a concert or a TED Talk? Lights flashing, cameras everywhere, worship team dressed like pop stars, and the pastor comes up with the energy of a hype man. You sit through the whole service… and leave wondering if God ever showed up. You’re not alone. A lot of us feel it—even if we don’t say it. Something's off. Something deep. Something sacred is missing in many churches today. What Happened to the Church? There was a time when walking into church felt different. You sensed a Holy presence. There was a reverence in the air. People came broken, expecting to meet with God. There were no gimmicks—just truth, love, repentance, and worship. But now, for many churches, it feels more like “What can we do to keep them entertained for 90 minutes?” Let’s call it what it is: the entertainment takeover. 1. ...

WHY OUR EVANGELISM SWEATS FREQUENTLY FALL SHORT

WHY OUR EVANGELISM SWEATS FREQUENTLY FALL SHORT   As a pastor and a Christian, my deepest desire is to see my church enkindled with a hot passion for evangelism and soul-winning. It frequently feels as though churches and their leaders come perfunctory, happy with simply switching aggrieved members from other  congregations and labeling it" growth," rather than pursuing genuine expansion through outreach. Dr. Kermit Long's observation resonates profoundly:" Despite our education, our emotional structures, and our polished image of the church, we're negotiating lower in winning people to Christ than our uninstructed forerunners. We have desisted to be' fishermen of...
