Do you know that you are not all you could be yet?

Good day my friends! I am so glad to welcome you again to the pages of our Daily word for Spiritual edification.

Today I want to share with you a powerful thought from Mathew 4: 18-20.

And Jesus, walking by the sea of Galilee, saw two brethren, Simon called Peter, and Andrew his brother, casting a net into the sea: for they were fishers. 19And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men.  20And they straightway left their nets, and followed him”

In the above passage, Jesus saw two brothers trying to catch fish by the sea side and immediately recognized that they have a better destiny, so He instructed them to follow Him. This word of God to you today is this: Follow me and I will make you.

Do you know that you are not all you could be yet? Only the Lord knows who you are created to be and He wants to make you become who you are really created to be. That is why He said “I will make you”.

Peter and His brother were created to be Fishers of men, but they did not know that until they started to follow Christ.

The bible said they straightway left their nets, and followed him. Their destiny was changed that very day. That was the point the Lord began to make them into who they were created to be.

You cannot make yourself. You need the hand of the master potter Himself. That is the point of this message. Allow the potter to mould you into the person you are created and ordained to be. As clay is useless unless it is submitted to the hand of the potter, so will our lives be wasted until we learn to follow Him.

The only condition for Him to make you is to follow Him. Follow Me and I WILL MAKE YOU, is the clear instruction!

Have you made up your mind to follow Him? Is your decision to follow Him affecting your life and actions on a daily basis? Peter and Andrew left their nets and back up their decision with a definite action, are you still holding unto some nets that are hindering you to follow the Master and the Potter?

Those are the screening God want you to do today.

And by the way, WHAT DOES IT MEANS TO FOLLOW ANOTHER, – TO FOLLOW CHRIST?

Among all things, following Christ mean

  1. To obey Him. Follow His teaching, commandments and instruction

  2. To yield or submit to His correction

  3. To set His life before you as an example.

The scriptures says “Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God. 3For consider him that endured such contradiction of sinners against himself, lest ye be wearied and faint in your minds”

We are to follow His actions, his steps and His examples. From today on turn this into your prayer: “Lord as I follow you, I thank you for making me and turning my destiny loose”May the Almighty Lord bless you abundantly this day!Pastor Rufus Ajiboye

  • Accountability allows us to submerge in Christ

    Accountability makes us strong and unites us to the other believers; it also kills the “I am a lone island” thinking. This type of thinking has caused many problems that the Body of Christ still suffers from.God does not want you to be an island that is separated and independent of the other brothers and sisters in Christ. We are not only responsible to being accountable ourselves; we also need to call others to accountability and help them with it.

    Fear paralyzes and limits a person, takes away his strength and courage for going forward; it does not allow person’s talents and gifts to come out on the surface. Fear steals person’s faith in God. A wicked heart makes a person selfish and stains his motives. Such a person is alienated from the true understanding of responsibility for his words and actions. He lives according to the principle “I do not owe a thing to anybody; everybody owes me!»

    Peace to you, my dear friends! I greet you on this wonderful day and pray for the Lord to help you in your walk and give you success in everything you will do today.
