Analyze your work and your days!

ByPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 3 minutes
May the peace and grace from the Lord Jesus Christ be multiplied unto you today! Today I want to talk to you about the need to analyze your work and your days. I would like you to see God Himself doing it when He was creating heaven and earth; we can read about it in the first book of the Bible – Genesis.God analyzed and assessed His work before making the next step in His plan. It is a very important principle: periodically we need to stop and look at the things we are doing. It is important to analyze what we have: Is it what we expected? Is it what we wanted? Is it good enough or we need to work more to make improvements? In Genesis we see God doing it again and again.
«And God saw the light, that is was good; and God divided the light from the darkness. God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. So the evening and the morning were the first day» (Genesis, 1: 4, 5).
«And God called the dry land Earth, and the gathering together of the waters He called Seas. And God say that it was good» (Genesis, 1: 10).
«And the earth brought forth grass, the herb that yields fruit, whose seed is in itself according to its kind. And God saw that is was good» (Genesis, 1:12).
«God set them in the firmament of the heavens to give light on the earth, and to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness. And God saw that it was good» (Genesis, 1:17-18).
Quite frequently God assessed what He had done. The Bible says: «And God saw that it was good».Other translation says: «And God saw that it was attractive, appropriate and He approved of it».  The creation matched with God’s original design, so it was good. If we don’t learn to stop like God did to analyze what we are doing and where we are going, then we might end up in a totally different place, not at the intended destination, and we might get something we did not plan to get. It is so easy to get distracted, to get involved into all kinds of entertainment and futile things; that is why we need to stop once in a while to check and analyze what is happening in our lives, whether it is good or bad, should it be changed or not, is the direction of our lives right and good. Let’s assume that in the beginning of the year you had a plan, a desire or a particular dream and you enthusiastically began carrying this plan out. But six month have gone by and you must stop and ask yourself: «Am I where I wanted to be or not?» If we do that daily like God did, we will be able to avoid wasting of time and resources and avoid making fundamental mistakes. I believe this insight will help you. Stop today and think: “Where is my life going? What have I accomplished?” May God give you wisdom and speak to you so that you could assess your life and change things that need correction.Be blessed! Till tomorrow!Pastor Rufus Ajiboye

  • We have to strengthen our spirit

    The Bible states «A man’s spirit will sustain him in sickness, but a crushed spirit, who can bear?» (Proverbs 18:14). Satan wants to hit our spirit via hardships, trials and problems. When your spirit is strengthened, you can overcome any kind of weakness, get through all kind of hardships and trials. So how can we strengthen our spirit? God´s word and His promises strengthen our spirit and overcome weakness and sufferings. In order to not give up, we need to learn how to lean on the word of God and His promises – fully and unconditionally. We have to learn God´s faithfulness and realise that God will never forsake us unless we abandon Him ourselves.

  • Ministry is important and it has an impact on us, because it helps us to develop compassionate heart

    Compassion, in turn, brings healing and restoring power of God into my life and through my life into the lives of others around me. Through the virtue of the compassion, I become a tool in God hands – a tool used for restoration and a channel of God’s healing anointing.God’s anointing flows and works through compassion. Do you want God to anoint you in a special way? Do you want the God’s power to flow through you mightily? I guess you do, don’t you? God desires that for you! He wants you to be an instrument of His grace, through whom His anointing and power can consistently flow. In order to succeed in this we need to develop a heart of compassion towards the people who in need around us. The more compassion we have within us, the more anointing and God’s power will flow through us.

  • Why do people choose to be irresponsible? IV

    «Poverty and shame will come to him who disdains correction, but he who regards a rebuke will be honoured» (Proverbs, 13:18).When an individual does not accept correction and advice, then it makes it difficult to help him to become more responsible. As we have mentioned before, an irresponsible person always considers himself to be right; in his opinion he never errs and because of it he has a hard time accepting reprimand and correction. If a person has come to a point when nobody can speak into his life, then downfall of such a person is practically inevitable.

  • The lordship of Jesus Christ V

    «All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations…» (Mathew, 28:18-19).Jesus told us to walk through this life, being armed with the understanding that all God’s authority is behind us. The will of God for us contains prosperity, health, salvation (both for us personally and for our families), peace and harmony; the will of God is for all people to come to salvation and knowledge of truth. But too often we see discrepancies in many areas of our life. Those areas where the will of God is not fulfilled are actually ruled by the devil; somehow we have given him a place and control over these areas.

  • Constant fellowship with God

    Having constant fellowship with God we begin to see ourselves as God´s chosen ones, holy and beloved. Each of us is unique and some can see it and believe it, however, not everybody has revealed it for himself. If you look at yourself as at the God´s chosen one, you life will easily reflect a heart of compassion, kindness, lowliness, humility, and perseverance. In addition you will notice how these qualities reflect in your inner world and your relationships with God and other people as well.
