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

  • Changes through Ministry III

    Ministry helps us to live for others not just for ourselves. When a person has a servant or serving heart, his life is focused on making other people happy instead of waiting on the other people to make him happy. Somebody with such an attitude and life position has no time for depression or for self-pity. His life is rather focused on searching for and helping other people who lives in poorer conditions himself instead of sitting around celebrating self- pity party. The person who understands the purpose of true ministry doesn’t live for himself, but his goal is to love God and to love other people.

  • Life is a trust

    You should understand there is nothing that belongs to you. Your life itself is not yours, it’s a trust God has shown to you. Understanding this truth changes the way you respond to what is going on around you.You do not live for yourself; you did not appear on this Earth by your own act of will or for your own personal purpose. God has given life to you as a sign of His trust for you. You are entrusted with life from God and the day will come when you will have to give account to God for the life He given to you, – for all your deeds and words while living in your body.

Is it possible that you need rest or take a break from God? Is it possible that you need rest from serving Him? No! We can serve God everywhere. You can be on a plane and serve people who sit by you. You can serve God on a beach, at work, everywhere; because in all of these places there are people who need God.

  • How to walk in forgiveness

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 4 minutes
    Stop making excuses for your offenses.When we make excuses, it becomes more difficult for us to get out of the offenses. When we confess any manifestations of offenses and see them as sin before God, then we start walking in the right direction. It is quite possible that you were mistreated, but it does not give you right not to forgive. If your reaction on the things happening to you does not please God – and unforgiveness never pleases God, – then you need to repent and ask God to forgive you.
