Greatness starts with little things!

ByPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 2 minutes
This is the day the Lord has made that we might rejoice and celebrate before Him! God’s mercy has been renewed for every one of us this morning. God continues to pour out on us His mercies and His abundance! His love towards us is unending. There is nothing and no-one that can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus. But God expects us to also love Him in return. The Bible says:
«And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength. This is the first commandment» (Mark, 12:30).
The one who loves always desires to do something for the object of his love; he always seeks ways to serve and to give the best of himself. It is possible to give without loving; it is possible to serve without loving; but it is impossible to love and not give yourself by serving. Because of His great love towards us God gave the biggest treasure – His only Son Jesus Christ. What are we ready to give to God, Who loves us so dearly? How strong is our love towards Him?God is calling us to minister to Him and to our loved ones. In order for us to do that He has given us certain talents. God is telling us to use them and spread His Kingdom in the process of doing that.
«So he called ten of his servants, delivered to them ten minas, and said to them, ‘Do business till I come’» (Luke, 19:13).
It is the Lord’s commandment – to use the talents that God has given us.Greatness starts with little things! Begin using the little things you have and be faithful and consistent in it; then you will be surprised to see what can grow out of it. The seed of greatness is in every person right now. But this seed will grow and bring harvest only if you will plant it and use it according to its original purpose.
«A little one shall become a thousand, and a small one a strong nation. I, the Lord, will hasten it in its time» (Isaiah, 60:22).
Till tomorrow!Today be faithful and obedient to God in small things!Pastor Rufus Ajiboye

    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)

    The Bible says: «For the law was given through Moses, but grace and truth came through Jesus Christ. No one has seen God at any time. The only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared Him» (John, 1:17-18).The law can never save people because the law only reveals the sinful nature of man. The law was given in order for people to realize their need for God and His help. It was Jesus who brought to us the truth and the grace that conveys spiritual power necessary to live in accordance with God’s will. Anyone who will accept this truth and grace will have the power to live a holy life and become an instrument in God’s hand that is able to manifest or declare God’s truth and grace to other people.

    Yesterday we began talking about the importance of knowing God’s will for our lives. We established that God has a particular plan with precise assignments for every person. But God reveals His plan gradually.God reveals His plan to us as we reach certain levels of maturity and grow in our ability to accept what He has prepared for us. As God shows us the details of His plan, we can learn to walk in obedience in those areas where God has already revealed us His will. And during this time we can simply trust Him to carry out His sovereign plan for our life.

    First of all, God ”will not allow you to be tempted above what you are able”. Maybe you don´t even feel that He is keeping all your situations under control but as a matter of fact, He has already set the limit of your hardships. God will not let things, that are above what you can bear, enter your life. You probably underestimate your own strength, but God knows better. When your reasoning is right you prevail over hardships. God will not allow you to be tempted above what you are able, so you can overcome all difficulties in life – that´s the idea you should feed your mind with.

    Do not compare yourself with other people, but always check whether you are faithful to God. Are you faithful to God in the area of being a good steward of the resources God has entrusted you?Jesus’ parable of talents says that after the lord returned and settled accounts with his first two servants that had multiplied their talents, he did not just praise them for their faithfulness; he also blessed and promoted them: «…you were faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things».
