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!

  • Forget not all His benefits!

    Many of us do not thank God as we ought to, because we do not purposely keep in mind what God has done or is doing for us. We forget because we do not write it down. When I was a teenager, we often sang a song that said: «Count your blessings! Name every one of them, one after another, and you will be amazed at what the Lord has done!» I advise every one of you to record every miracle and every blessing that God does in our lives. You can use different methods: either modern technologies or simple writing.

    How much suffering there is in the world because of the irresponsibility of fathers and mothers!

Sin is the main cause of sufferings, tragedies and illnesses on earth.

  • The voice of God is the source of the spirit of faith

    There are two dimensions of faith:THE WORD OF FAITH«But the righteousness of faith speaks in this way, “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will ascend into heaven?’” (that is, to bring Christ down from above) or “’Who will descend into the abyss?’” (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead). But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the word of faith which we preach)» (Romans, 10: 6-8)

    How will you answer these questions? It is very important to answer these questions already now. This is why we invite all members of the church to actively serve God. The desire to serve God will prompt the believer to think – what can I do? What do I know and how can i use that for the benefit of the Kingdom? what do I have already, and what can I share with others? How can I use my experience in serving other people, in honor of the Lord?

  • We must prepare the way so that the Lord could come in glory and fullness!

    God has a way. He does not force Himself on people; He is the God of order. Until there will be a way prepared for God, He won’t come. Many of us would like for God to come, but He does not come without proper preparation. God goes where people are ready for His visitation. And when God comes, then all barriers are cast aside, the desert starts blooming, the mountains and hills are brought down, the valleys will be filled, the crooked places are made straight and the rough places are made smooth. God can show us the great picture of what He wants to do among us and through us as His people or the Church. But it will take a serious preparation and it will require of us to be very responsible.

  • Put to death therefore your members which are on the earth

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 4 minutes
    “Put to death your body”- means letting the resurrected life that dwells in you spring its roots. By feeding our old sinful nature we strengthen it and as a result of this the sinful nature prevails the resurrected life inside us. In opposite, when thinking about things that are above ans seeking those things we enable ourselves to celebrate a victory over sin and the old nature.Quite often, when somebody hears that he has to put his body to death he says to himself: “I can´t do it!” This is the voice of your old nature. Though, let me share the good news with you – the Bible says, when Christ reveals Himself so will you in His glory, and your new life will be transformed into abundant life. If we have fellowship with God, seek things that are above and reason about Him, then Christ will definitely reveal Himself in our life.
