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

    «As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore be zealous and repent» (Revelation, 3:19). Repentance is the right reaction to discipline! Sin never is just one’s personal business, so to speak. Sin is not something you do to yourself; sin is something that inevitably affects others.

  • God’s desire for our faith not to be based on the wisdom of man, the wisdom of this age, but on the wisdom of God!

    Only God’s wisdom is meant to bring us into the place of glory. The wisdom of God glorifies and exalts us. It is very important for us to open up our hearts and to receive God’s wisdom. Today we often hear about Chinese wisdom, Russian wisdom, Babylonian wisdom etc. But how wonderful it is that we have been given God’s wisdom! The wisdom of God is the highest form of wisdom for all the living. Only this wisdom is able to transform human life, changing it from within (from inside out). That is why God wants our faith to be based on His wisdom and not the wisdom of men.

  • Do You Hear What God Is Saying? III

    There is another voice that we hear – it is the voice of other people and the voice of human standpoint. For example, the voice of experts goes in this category – a doctor who proclaims what the medical equipment indicates. A doctor may tell the patient that he will die in three days, because the medical equipment, the analyses and his own medical experience show that. Praise the Lord for our doctors, but we must know that the last word always belongs to God. God often says the totally opposite to what experts say. In such cases, it is necessary that we, while being respectful towards different specialists, put aside the expert conclusions and trust God, not people. The more you trust the expert conclusions and not the Word of God, the less God can give you life.
