God has appointed every one of us for the ministry, so that all of us would grow into Him!

Greetings to you, dear readers of „Daily Word for Spiritual Edification”!For several days now we have been discussing – in my opinion – a very important topic „What are you doing with your talent?”If you have not learnt yet what your talents are, then you need to shut yourself in a room, pray to God and ask Him, „What can I do for the Kingdom of God, even if it is something small? I do not just want to be an idle watcher or a visitor who is on the receiving end only and not giving something back. I want to do something for God so that His Kingdom would grow”. God will answer you and show you your talents and the things you can do in His Kingdom.God relies on our service in order to build His Kingdom. The Church and Kingdom function as a body. A body has many members. A body has arms, legs, veins, a heart and a liver, also hair and nails etc. Every body has visible and invisible organs, and all of them are equally important. Imagine the House of God being a body. This Body grows as every member does his or her part.
«..but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head – Christ – from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love» (Ephesians, 4:15-16).
This passage of Scripture tells us what is the desire of God. He has appointed every one of us for the ministry, so that all of us would grow into Him Who is the Head – Christ; so that we all would be joined to Him and focused on Him, His Kingdom and the work of His Kingdom. Jesus must be the centre of everything. Every member does its share and then the Body grows in the love of God and every one enjoys and benefits from it. We will all enjoy the Church, if every one of us does his or her part to the best of our abilities. I need to do only what I am able to do and not worry about what I do not have and what I cannot do, – otherwise i will be crush under such burden. I must only concentrate my attention on how to multiply my talents.It is high time to locate your ministry and do your part in the Body of Christ! This is very important both for God and for you!May God abundantly bless you on this day!Pastor Rufus Ajiboye

  • What other effects of unforgiveness can we see?

    Unforgiveness destroys godly relationships and causes splits in the Body of Christ.There is so much chaos in the Church of Jesus Christ because of offended people. Many of them are not able to fellowship with one another and built friendship due to offenses and the fear of rejection. Many people build huge walls around them due to unforgiveness. They receive new „revelations” that separate them from the other people even more and make them passive.

  • Seek first to do that which is the will of God in all your decisions

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 4 minutes
    If you fear God, the first thing you consider in any decision you make is: “What is God’s will in this matter? What does God say about this issue?” The first question you ask in hard times should never be “How hard is it going to get doing what I am doing” BUT RATHER what is God’s will in this matter?

    Today I’d like us to discuss about the life of Abraham. I believe God wants to show us some very important principles that can be gleaned from the life of Abraham and in his relationship with God. “Now the Lord had said to Abram: “Get out of your country, from your family and from your father’s house, to a land that I will show you. I will make you a great nation; I will bless you and make your name great; and you shall be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who curses you; and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.” (Genesis, 12:1-3)

  • Follow me and I will make you!

    Do you know that you are not all you could be yet? Only the Lord knows who you are created to be and He wants to make you become who you are really created to be. That is why He said “I will make you”.Peter and His brother were created to be Fishers of men, but they did not know that until they started to follow Christ.The bible said they straightway left their nets, and followed him. Their destiny was changed that very day. That was the point the Lord began to make them into who they were created to be.
