A Voice of Hope to Those Without Hope
21 April 2022
I can no better explain what Voice of Hope represents than through the voice of Rev. Dr. Teresa Allissa Citro. "Voice of Hope is committed and devoted to being an avenue that will help others grow spiritually, emotionally, and in knowledge."
FOUNDER'S PEARLS
Rev. Dr. Teresa Allissa Citro brings wonderful insights and wisdom. Nothing less than precious pearls from her pen.
They heard Him say, "It is finished."
Jesus was dead. Defeat and hopelessness were in the air. The body of the Master was in the tomb with a rock rolled into place. Fear had crippled His followers. But Sunday was coming.
Whatever is happening in your life, hang on victory is coming. Jesus conquered it all on that old rugged cross. That is why we celebrate Good Friday. Alleluia!

THE TRUMPET
Hosea 8:1 “Set the trumpet to your lips! [The enemy] comes as a [great] vulture against the house of the Lord, because they have broken my covenant and transgressed against my law.”
The message is a call to each one that will heed the call to prepare as soldiers would prepare for war. To put on the full armor of light as to stand fully equipped against the dominion of darkness in these last days. The mandate is to equip and make ready a people for the soon return of their King.
REPENTANCE IS KEY.
THE NEXT FEW YEARS WILL BRING THE PURIFYING FIRE OF GOD TO THE HOUSE OF GOD. THERE IS A GLORY COMING TO THE HOUSEHOLD OF GOD BUT THIS GLORY WILL ONLY COME TO THOSE HOUSES OF GOD AND TO THOSE INDIVIDUALS WHO TRULY REPENT. TRUE REPENTANCE MUST PRECEDE THE BAPTISM OF THE HOLY SPIRIT AND FIRE. IF YOU DESIRE THE LAST DAYS' OUTPOURING OF THE HOLY SPIRIT AND FIRE. IF YOU DESIRE THE LATTER RAINS. IF YOU DESIRE A GREATER GLORY IN YOUR CHURCH OR IN YOUR PERSONAL LIFE I TELL YOU THE HOUR HAS COME TO TRULY REPENT. THE HOUR TO LAY DOWN EVERY WEIGHT AND SIN THAT SO EASILY INSNARES IS NOW. JOHN THE BAPTIST DECLARED THAT WE OUGHT TO BEAR FRUIT WORTHY OF REPENTANCE IF WE WANT TO ESCAPE THE JUDGEMENTS OF GOD. JESUS SAID YOU WILL KNOW THEM BY THEIR FRUIT. THE LORD IS COMING TO CLEAN HOUSE BUT IF WE WOULD JUDGE OURSELVES, WE WILL NOT BE JUDGED. HE WILL COME TO PROVE AND TEST EVERY HEART. WILL WE BE ABLE TO SAY LIKE JOB, “HE KNOWS THE WAY I TAKE; WHEN HE HAS TESTED ME I WILL COME FORTH AS GOLD. HE WILL ENTRUST HIS GLORY ONLY TO THOSE WHO ARE FOUND TRUSTWORTHY AND WORTHY TO CARRY SUCH A POWER AND ANOINTING. I HAVE COME TO DECLARE UNTO YOU: DO ALL TO MAKE YOUR ELECTION SURE!!!!
HAGGAI 2:6-9 6. “This is what the Lord Of heavens armies says: ‘In just a little while I will again shake the heavens and the earth, the sea and dry land. 7. I will shake all nations, and the treasures of all nations will be brought to this Temple. I will fill this place with glory,’ says the Lord Of heavens armies. 8. The silver is mine and the gold is mine, says the Lord of heavens armies. 9. The future glory of the present house will be greater than its past glory, says the Lord of heavens armies. And in its place, I will bring peace. I, the Lord of heavens armies, have spoken.

RENEWED (body, soul & spirit)
Rika spent 22 years climbing the Corporate ladder, just to realize the ladder was against the wrong building.
She entered the fitness industry in 2007 and had 3 successful Curves franchises where she was personally involved in coaching and counseling members with further studies in Nutrition at Baylor University, Texas, and the Cleveland Heart Clinic. “There is no greater reward than making a difference in people’s lives. “
When her husband was diagnosed with stage 4 liver cancer in 2015, it impacted their lifestyle dramatically, unfortunately, it was too late for Bruce.
Through this experience, the Lord birthed a desire to educate, counsel, and facilitate innovative mental, physical and spiritual health solutions through an in-depth focus on individual holistic wellbeing.
“I thank the Lord for the vision and am blessed to be able to provide knowledge of renewal in mind, body, and spirit to complete health and healing."
Ps 138 says we are fearfully and wonderfully made. We have a responsibility to care for our bodies and not abuse them for we are the temple of God.
The difference between conviction and condemnation
The Holy Spirit brings conviction because God loves you and wants you to be set free from sin so that you can enjoy abundant life which includes divine health. Jesus paid such a high price to give it to you.
Heb 12: 5-6 & 10 – 11: “ ⁵My son, do not think lightly or scorn to submit to the correction and discipline of the Lord, nor lose to courage and give up and faint when you are reproved or corrected by Him;⁶For the Lord corrects and disciplines everyone whom He loves, and He punishes, even scourges, every son whom He accepts and cherishes …10 For (our earthly fathers) disciplined us for only a short period of time and chastised us as seemed proper and good to them; but He disciplines us for our good, that we may become sharers in His holiness. 11For the time being no discipline brings joy, but seems grievous and painful; but afterward, it yields a peaceful fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it (a harvest of fruit which consists in righteousness – in conformity to God’s will in purpose, thought, and action, resulting in right living and right standing with God)”
When the Word is taught, the Holy Spirit brings conviction, knocking on the door of your heart, and letting you know that an area of your life and thinking needs to be changed.
However, the enemy then likes to come in and use that conviction, which was meant for your good, to hit you with it as condemnation. The Word says that the devil is the accuser of the brethren.
Rev 12 : 10:” The accuser of our brethren, he who keeps bringing before our God charges against them day and night, has been cast out!”
It is important to understand the difference between conviction and condemnation:
Gods Voice
Calms
Comforts
Convicts
Encourages
Enlightens
Leads
Reassures
Stills
Satan’s Voice
Obsesses
Worries
Condemns
Discourages
Confuses
Drives
Frightens
Rushes
God brings conviction of the Holy Spirit, and it sets you free and reaffirms your value to God, making you feel loved by Him.
Condemnation is from the enemy, and it brings feelings of worthlessness and failure, which drive you away from God and into deeper bondage.
Do not believe the lies of the enemy, the Word of God says in Rom 8:1” There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.”
The voice of the Holy Spirit is gentle because He is a gentleman, He leads us and He guides us.
In His Service,
