Being a Christian is a responsibility

ByPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 2 minutes
Dear brothers and sisters! Today, I want to challenge each of you to become more responsible. Not only the world or the church need responsible people, but also God. Being a Christian is a responsibility. God lifts up and raises exactly those who agree to become responsible. Jesus speaks on this in the next passage: 
«For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath. And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.»(Мatth.25:29-30)
Irresponsible people lose their positions and everything that they own; whereas responsible people multiply their influence and grace. If you want to experience rise from God this year, then make a decision to become responsible in all the spheres of your life. By the way, the church membership is a responsibility too. Every member of a church has a duty to get acquainted with aims and tasks of the church, let it through their hearts, let it overwhelm you and bind the aim of your life with these Godly aims in order to honour God with your life every day. God has promised to honour those who honour Him. 
«Wherefore the LORD God of Israel saith, I said indeed that thy house, and the house of thy father, should walk before me for ever: but now the LORD saith, Be it far from me; for them that honour me I will honour, and they that despise me shall be lightly esteemed..» (1 Sam 2:30)
 
«If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will my Father honour.» (John 12:26)
 Behold, therefore I can surely assert that everyone who takes upon themselves responsibility and honour God with their lives, are already walking the road to be raised by God. I wish you accomplishments and success on this road. Until the time we meet again! Pastor Rufus Ajiboye

  • Life without prayer is a road to nowhere

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 3 minutes
    When a person repents, he can start developing his prayer life. We must know that God does not turn away from us even when we do not pray. God is very patient and He wants us to understand that without prayer we are spiritually weak and unable to enter the things He has prepared for us. Effective prayer is the thing that opens a way for us and allows God to walk ahead of us. God waits until we come to full realization of it. He is good to His children, but His goodness must lead us to repentance. Many people do not understand it. Sometimes we do things that go against God’s orders and at the same time we feel like it is alright.

  • God wants prayer to become priority in the lives of His children!

    Everything that devil has bound up in your life – your miracle, your promises, – can be released to you by the supernatural power of God. But for it to happen, prayer must become your number 1 priority.Take any Bible story and you will see what powerful prayer of believers is able to accomplish. For example, what did Daniel do when he was thrown into lions’ den? Did he pray? No, it was too late to pray. He had been praying long before he got to this point in his life. It is too late to pray when you are in a den with some lions. You must pray before anything like that happens! Daniel prayed three times a day every day.

    «My son, give attention to my words; incline your ear to my sayings. Do not let them depart from your eyes; keep them in the midst of your heart; for they are life to those who find them, and health to all their flesh. Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it spring the issues of life» (Proverbs, 4:20-23). Based on this Scripture, we can argue that the course of your life, my destiny or yours should not depend on somebody else but on ourselves. You must take charge of your life and destiny!

    «Without faith it is impossible to be well pleasing to him, for he who comes to God must believe that he exists, and that he is a rewarder of those who seek him.» (Hebrew 11:6). As we mentioned earlier, faith means acting in accordance to the word of God. Quite often God calls us to do impossible things, those only God Himself can accomplish. God is not inviting us to demonstrate our own capabilities, but what He is able to do through us. That´s why God often gives us the tasks we cannot accomplish without Him.
