Any change in our life is done by the Holy Spirit, who transforms us and moves us from glory to glory

ByPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 3 minutes

Welcome, dear friends! I am so happy to share with you the word God put into my heart today. I believe it´s going to strengthen you and make you wiser.

Yesterday we began to talk that we can reveal ourselves only when we enter the presence of God. Your own life and potential are hidden in Christ. Each of us is willing to transform, though, it can only happen in the presence of God and through having personal fellowship with God.

 

 

«But we all, with unveiled face beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are transformed into the same image from glory to glory, even as from the Lord, the Spirit.»(2nd Corinthians 3:18).

 

Any change in our life is done by the Holy Spirit, who transforms us and moves us from glory to glory. Are you able to accomplish something only the Holy Spirit can do? Surely not! However, by constantly watching the glory of the Lord with open face the Holy Spirit can transform us into the same image, from glory to glory.

I noticed there is a problem with persistence in our fellowship with God not with coming before Him. You probably experience the time when inspiration visits you and you are willing to get closer to God and have fellowship with Him. While those moments come rather rarely or very rarely they do not change anything in essence. We all need persistence! During fellowship with God Holy Spirit will work at your heart, at your character, at your relationships, at your way of thinking that, in turn, will transform you.

What does transformation mean?

It means change of your perception of the ongoing events, so that you start looking at things God´s way. Transformation means internal freedom, being what God wants you be, ability to fulfil God´s will in your life. In opposite case, our old way of life will prevent us from fulfilling the God´s will. The more sermons you listen to while reducing your time spent with God, the more shut your heart will be. That´s why many believers stay unchanged for years, regardless of all kind of sermons they have heard.

When God invites us for fellowship, it should not be treated as a punishment. God is not willing to steal our free time nor trying to burden us in any kind of way. Vice verse, fellowship with Him is our privilege, opportunity to transform, this is the time to reveal your inner self. Fellowship with God changes us internally! Global changes in your life start with changes in your heart.

 

 

«If then you were raised together with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated on the right hand of God.» (Colossians3:1).

 

Always seek the things that are above! Seek Christ seated on the right hand of God then your life will be revealed and you will also be revealed with him in glory.

 

Let´s continue tomorrow!

Be blessed!

Rufus Adjiboje, pastor

  • Analyze your work and your days! II

    In order for us to analyze our day, first of all we need to see that God had a plan of what He wanted to get done. He had a plan, a dream, and a vision of the world He wanted to create. We can not effectively analyze our day and our life without a concrete plan. You need to start your analysis with a question about your plans. Ask yourself: „Do I have a plan for my life?”

  • God desires to give you true success

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 5 minutes
    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.

  • Do You Hear What God Is Saying? III

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 2 minutes
    There is another voice that we hear – it is the voice of other people and the voice of human standpoint. For example, the voice of experts goes in this category – a doctor who proclaims what the medical equipment indicates. A doctor may tell the patient that he will die in three days, because the medical equipment, the analyses and his own medical experience show that. Praise the Lord for our doctors, but we must know that the last word always belongs to God. God often says the totally opposite to what experts say. In such cases, it is necessary that we, while being respectful towards different specialists, put aside the expert conclusions and trust God, not people. The more you trust the expert conclusions and not the Word of God, the less God can give you life.

  • God reveals His plan gradually

    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.
