We have to always choose God´s will

ByPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 3 minutes
Dear children of God, welcome to the column “Daily word for spiritual strength”. I believe our sessions inspire and cheer you up.Yesterday we talked about Jesus very serious attitude to God´s will itself and its fulfilment. Doing Fathers work who sent Him was our Lord´s highest priority.Going through the most difficult ordeal in His life, when Jesus heart was internally struggling whether to accept or to reject God´s will, He proved with His own example that we have to always choose God´s will even if it requires us to go through pain and sufferings.  
«My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass away from me; nevertheless, not what I desire, but what you desire.» (Matthew 26:39).
 
« … Father, if you are willing, remove this cup from me. Nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done.» (Luke 22:42)
  The Bible invites us not to be foolish, but to understand what the will of the Lord is. (Ephesians 5:18).Jesus had fellowship with God and knew the Scriptures, that´s why He got to know God´s will. You can do the same thing if you really wish to know what God´s will is.Getting to know God´s promises and prevailing the temptations and satan was not the only reason why Jesus studied the Scriptures. He basically did it to understand the God´s will. Quoting Scriptures Jesus implemented God´s will in His life. All these examples prompt every Christian who wants to fulfil his mission in his life to grow up in understanding of God´s will.There are at least three ways of how God´s children have to grow, so that they are able to fulfil the mission on this Earth.First of all, we have to personally know God, His nature, His heart and the goals He set for His creatures. We can receive the necessary revelations about God by reading the Bible, praying, having fellowship with the Holy Spirit and other people who know God.Secondly, get to know yourself. Get to know yourself as a different person, one who sits with Him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus. Don´t forget, everyone in Christ is a new creation, the old has passed away! (see Ephesians 2:4-10). It´s necessary to understand your mission and the goal of your life on Earth, the power you´ve been given as a child of God and your heritage you possess together with the holy ones (the Scripture also reveals all these things to us).As a third thing, you should get to know your enemy – satan. You have to be aware of his abilities but most of all we have to know what satan cannot do. In addition we need a revelation about how to fight the devil, so that we can fulfil our mission on Earth.The word of God is the only source of revelation, truth and spiritual reason. The word of God enlightens a person. The Bible is a source of light! Therefore, please do not study Bible in a religious way or just formally. Study the Bible the way that you can reveal to yourself things like who you are, why you´ve been born, what you possess and what you have to accomplish in your life on this Earth.See you tomorrow!God abundantly bless you all!Rufus Adjiboye, pastor

  • We are the salt of the earth and light of the world

    We continue talking about our role and function as God’s ambassadors on the earth. We’ve talked about the Bible calling us Christ’s ambassadors; God has sent us to encourage people to be reconciled with God. The Bible also calls us the salt of the earth and the light to the world. But if we as Christ’s ambassadors on earth do not actively practise our faith, then our society will deteriorate. Today, if we look at successful and prosperous countries, we can see the reason of their success and prosperity is because the people there embrace and practice Christian values. Only righteousness exalts a nation – Thai is a law, – God’s law. Only righteousness makes a nation prosperous! Injustice and sin destroy a nation.

  • Preparation is a key to effective life

    In reality, effective life is impossible without appropriate preparation. Jesus solved the question of effectiveness by preparing Himself for the ministry. There is almost no information about what Jesus had been doing during the first 30 years of His life. Gospels tell us the story about His ministry. Meanwhile, we need to understand that prior to starting His ministry Jesus had been seriously preparing himself for quite a long time.

  • The law of multiplication

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 3 minutes
    If we have seed and sow it in good ground, then we will definitely see a harvest. Seed will grow. Sown seed first gives blade, then head and then grain in the head. Multiplication and growth always imply process. It is unavoidable if we want to receive harvest. We just have to do our part. First, that we have to understand in order to receive harvest is that we need some seed. The truth is that we already have seed. If you want to see multiplication in some area of your life you should know that you already have seed from God.

  • Accountability in the life of Jesus Christ

    When we look at the life of Jesus Christ we see that He did not live an independent life. Jesus was accountable to His Father in everything – in words and deeds: «Then Jesus said to them, „When you lift up the Son of Man, then you will know that I am He, and that I do nothing of Myself; but as My Father taught Me, I speak these things» (John, 8:28).

  • Thank God always and in everything, because it is God’s will for us

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 5 minutes
    Someone might say, «I still do not have a job, even though I have prayed and the church has prayed for me». Or he might say, «Thank You, Lord, for the daily bread You give me». Do you see a difference? In the first case we hear murmuring, in the second – thanksgiving. Is it really necessary to thank God for the daily bread? Absolutely, since many people are forced to go hungry from day to day.
