Everybody is dedicated to something the question is what or whom. What or whom are you dedicated to in your life?

 Good day, dear friends! I thank God for you and I believe this day will bring you huge blessings along your reasoning about the word God has given to you today. We are talking about how important your consecration and doing God´s will is. Taking Jesus life as an example we clarified that:

 

  • Jesus valued God´s will higher than food for the body.
  • Jesus never ever sought His but God´s will in everything.
  • Jesus set priorities on whom to spend the most of His time with.
  • Jesus rejoiced when His disciples reported that demons subjected to them in His Name.

As we said earlier, a person consecrated himself to God builds his relationship or friendship based on his purpose or his consecration to God, thus spending the most of his time with people who follow the same way as him. I also want to point out that Jesus sought every opportunity to fulfil God´s will instead of looking for an excuse why He couldn´t fulfil it.

 

«Jesus said to them, “My food is to do the will of him who sent me, and to accomplish his work. Don’t you say, ‘There are yet four months until the harvest?’ Behold, I tell you, lift up your eyes, and look at the fields, that they are white for harvest already. He who reaps receives wages, and gathers fruit to eternal life; that both he who sows and he who reaps may rejoice together.» (John 4:34-36).

 

Person consecrated himself to God never postpones things for tomorrow, never makes excuses when it´s time to stand up and act. Jesus reprimanded His disciples for their intention to wait for four months until the harvest, while as He affirmed there was no time any more. The harvest was already vanishing and decaying due to lack of working hands. Sense of understanding of time is the difference between effective and successful people and those who are ineffective and fruitless.

Jesus said: «I must work the works of him who sent me, while it is day. The night is coming, when no one can work.» (John 9:4),

 

while the disciples said they still had four months of time.

Consecrated person always seeks opportunity to fulfil his mission. So Jesus set a good example for us what consecration is and what it means to be consecrated to God. He also proved that person´s consecration reflects on his life style. Everybody is dedicated to something the question is what or whom. What or whom are you dedicated to in your life? Whom do you follow in your life? What is the engine of your life? What is your friendship with other people based upon? What makes you rejoice in your life? Is your dedication connected to eternal life and God´s will for your life?

Please consider answering these questions, while you still have a chance to change something in your life! I wish every reader would consecrate himself to fulfil his purpose and God´s will for his life.

God bless you abundantly!

Rufus Adjiboje, pastor

  • Only God can tell us the way we can please Him through our ministry

    Can we serve God on His conditions, instead of ours? does our service to God cost us something? Whether we give to God the rests of our time which and so is not present, or we give to It from the rudiments? Do we give to God the left over of times or do we commit the first fruit of our time to God? Do we serve God only when that is convenient and favourablу for us, or we are ready to sacrifice our comfort for the sake of the interests of the Kingdom God?

  • But he who endures to the end shall be saved!

    The question arises why so many people start their walk with God but turn aside in one of the crossroads of life; they turn back to where they came from. It reminds me the story of Jewish people. For a long time this nation was in slavery in Egypt. They were burdened by hard work with no payment. The nation of Israel cried out to God, and God delivered them and brought them out of Egypt. They had to walk to the Promised Land. Every day they were getting closer to it. There were difficulties on their way; they had to flee some wrong things, avoid making wrong decisions, wrong relationships; they had to overcome grumbling and complaining. Israelites had to obtain more and more knowledge of God while heading towards their Promised Land.

  • The true knowledge of God only come through the One Who is ‘ in the bosom of the Father’ – from Jesus

    The word “Father’s bosom” means very close to the Father’s heart, to be by the Father’s side or on the Father’s breast. That word was used in John to describe John leaning on Jesus: «Now there was leaning on Jesus’ bosom one of His disciples, whom Jesus loved» (John, 13:23).So Jesus was close to Father’s heart, and that is why He was able to manifest God to us. The true knowledge of God only come through the One Who is ‘ in the bosom of the Father’ – from Jesus.

  • Do not live without vision!

    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 importance of turning at the reproof of the Lord.

    The Bible tells us that God will correct us because He loves us and is delighted in our prosperity. He will not live us to wander in our unrighteous ways. He will rebuke, chastise and discipline those He love just like any father will do to his children.“My son, despise not the chastening of the LORD; neither be weary of his correction:12 For whom the LORD loveth he correcteth; even as a father the son in whom he delighteth” (Proverbs 3:11-12).

  • What fruit does God want to see in our lives?

    The souls of the people that have repented and come back to God. Every person that has come back to God is like a fruit. Every repented soul is the product of someone’s fruit that before God. God wants to see as many people as possible meeting Jesus and making Him the Lord of their lives through you. When we help people to meet Jesus and accept His lordship, we bear fruit that glorify God.
