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

    God so desires for us to seek Him early in the morning. He so desires for us to return to Him. He wants to heal us and to bind up our wounds. God so wants to revive and restore us, so that we could live before Him. When we seek the Lord, when we seek to know Him, He comes and immerses us into His presence; He pours out His rain on us and waters the earth.Yesterday we talked about how Moses set up a tabernacle outside the camp for all seekers of the Lord. We also saw that instead of entering the tabernacle and seeking the face of the Lord, Israelites were simply observing how Moses spoke to God and how God answered Moses.

    One of proofs of your love for God is to love those whom He loves. You know that God loves the Church of Jesus Christ, and that He also loves the lost people (who have not yet come to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ). How your love for God is reflected in your attitude towards the church and unbelievers around you?Do you have the passion to see His church grow and to advance the values of the Kingdom of God through His Church Do you have the passion to see His lost sheep brought back to his fold?

  • The changes in our lives take place when we become the doers of the Word

    «Therefore lay aside all filthiness and overflow of wickedness, and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls. But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves. For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror; for he observes himself, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was. But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does» (James, 1:21-25).

  • The Word of God – the source of divine information and truth

    The lack of vision, knowledge or useful information can become the source of destruction and tragedy. There is a saying that not knowing the law does not relief from the responsibility; not knowing God’s laws or moral blindness multiplies human sufferings on earth.Every person must gain knowledge and understanding of God’s provision; we must know what God has done for us in Christ so that we can lessen human suffering. The lack of such knowledge can cause great pain. It is like a person starving because he does not know about state aid. The lack of knowledge of one’s rights and privileges can cause unnecessary problems.

    The Bible says, „Where there is no revelation, the people cast off restraint; but blessed is he who keeps the law.” (Proverbs 29: 18).Another translation of „revelation” means revelation of the redemptive purposes of God, but the phrase „cast off restraint” is translated as „destruction”. Thus, without a clear understanding of the redemptive purposes of God, the nation of God is destroyed because they cast off restraint.

    «A man’s gift makes room for him, and brings him before great men» (Proverbs, 18: 16).Your gift will make room for you and will broaden your boarders, if you won’t hide it. So many times believers ask: «Where is my place in the Body of Christ? What is my calling?»Do what you know. This simple principle gives an answer to many questions. Find the thing that you know how to do; find what you can do to promote the Kingdom of God, to help the church to grow and to extend your influence in the society.
