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

  • 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.

    It´s also important to know that Jesus knows everything, He possesses all hidden information, necessary for our mission. That´s why obedience to the Lord who knows everything is vitally important! When Jesus had a need for a donkey to ride upon to Jerusalem, He knew where to find the animal. He knew where to go and find that donkey. He knew how to bring that donkey to Him.

  • God desires to give you true success

    As we said before, a successful person is the one who knows what God wants him to do in his life and has dedicated his life for doing God’s will. Human success is not measured by his social status, banc accounts, and influence in society, popularity or fame in this world. True success is measured by how successful he has been in doing God’s will.Think about it today! God desires to give you true success that can be found in learning and doing God’s will for your life. You are the one who determines what to do with your life: either seeking temporary pleasure and enjoyment or seeking the eternal values of God’s Kingdom and His will for your life.

    «Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered. Blessed is the man to whom the Lord does not impute iniquity, and in whose spirit there is no deceit!» (Psalms, 32:1-2) David says that after repentance God’s forgiveness comes into person’s life, his transgressions are forgiven, his iniquities are not imputed to him and his sins are covered. David says this person to be blessed. One who does not hide an iniquity in his heart is open before God. But there is no forgiveness for the one who does not repent and does not confess his sins to God.

  • Sacrifice as a measure of love! II

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 4 minutes
    Love is not feelings, it is self-sacrifice, but self-sacrifice – it is decision.Of course, there are feelings in love. But, if we love God, our mutual relationships with God do not consist of feelings alone.The Bible talks about people whom God calls His friends. Why were these people special? All of them proved their love for God with self-sacrifice. They did not afford themselves do many things only because they loved God and longed for friendship with Him.
