Do not live without vision!

ByPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 2 minutes
My greetings to you, dear friends! I bless you this day!I thank the Lord for the words that He speaks to us daily to edify us, to strengthen our spiritual walk and to help us move forward.Today I would like to share with you a word about building or constructing your future. The truth is that we are a product of what we see. In order for us to reach any goals in life, we have to first see (visualize or imagine) them. So many people do not advance and move forward because of the lack of vision; they only live in the ‘now’. Very often people do not have any future plans; they do not have a clue of what goals they want to reach in this life.The Bible says,
 „Where there is no revelation, the people cast off restraint” (Proverbs, 29:18).
This verse of Scripture tells us that without a revelation from above, without a vision and an understanding of where we are going, without the understanding from the Lord about our future, – we become unrestrained.In a different translation of the Bible this verse says that without vision people perish. It means that if we do not have a plan from the Lord, based on His revelation for our lives, then we will wander aimlessly without purpose or direction and eventually decline.Without a plan and a revelation, life becomes senseless and goes ‘down the hill’. We must catch the vision from the Lord for our families, ministry, and work – infact,for all the spheres of our lives. This is the will of God for us, and it is also the beginning of a blessed and a great future for us. Future belongs to those who have vision.So the word of Lord for you is: do not live without vision! Trust God, pray and receive the vision from above for your life. God bless you today!Till tomorrow!

  • Why it is necessary for us to make praise as a way of life

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 4 minutes
    Praise as a demonstration of our faith in God. In Roman 4: 20 we are told that Abraham He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God. One of the ways we can both demonstrate and build a strong faith in our lives is to learn to give glory. One way we can give glory to God is to believe Him, praise Him and holding unto His word despite the negative circumstances of life. Only those who believe God is in control of their lives and their situations can live such a life. But the truth is that we cannot enjoy the life of God until we learn to give glory to Him by demonstrating our faith in Him through praise on a daily basis.

    God has set particular order in His Kingdom; there are some principles that the Kingdom of God is based on: humble people open for themselves the grace of walking in the fear of the Lord and they experience riches, honour and full life from God, – the Word of God says so. Prideful and haughty sooner or later are humbled and their life is filled with falls and destruction.If we desire God’s promotion we need to walk in humility and obedience to God. So many people after they get promoted become unapproachable, unsociable, and haughty.

  • Worthy Goal for Life

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 4 minutes
    Every person has a goal, whether he talks about it or not. He is driven to do something. But if we talk about goals, it is important to determinewhether it is WORTHY or UNWORTHY. Paul had a worthy goal and talked about it all the time:«…according to my earnest expectation and hope that in nothing I shall be ashamed, but with all boldness, as always, so now also Christ will be magnified in my body, whether by life or by death. For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain. But if I live on in the flesh, this will mean fruit from my labor; yet what I shall choose I cannot tell. For I am hard-pressed between the two, having a desire to depart and be with Christ, which is far better. Nevertheless to remain in the flesh is more needful for you.
