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

  • What do we have to do in order to witness spiritual revival filling our cities?

    Jesus didn´t come into this world to die on the cross so that people become religious and indifferent to God. Contrariwise, Jesus came to fill the Earth with His glory just like rivers fill the seas. Jesus set an example of what we have to do. Wherever Jesus showed up He stirred the place! Everywhere He showed up people responded to His visit both positively and negatively. Some of them said: “Watch the Messiah, He is the answer, He is the son of God!” while the others stated: “He is obsessed by demons, He is a sinner, blasphemer, He is dangerous, so He must die”.

  • Worthy Goal for Life II

    Yesterday we started talking about our goals. Everyone has them. We discussed that there are worthy and less worthy goals. We also saw that after meeting Christ, Paul devoted his life to Him; earnest expectation of Christ to be glorified in his body and through his life became his main goal in life. It is very important to ascertain for ourselves what our goals are.You and I have been justified by faith in Jesus Christ and we have peace with God. But it is just the beginning. Having been reconciled with God is just the beginning of the Christian walk. What awaits us afterwards? Through faith we gain Access to God’s grace and we expect the glory of God to be progressively revealed in us and through us.

  • The example of accountability in the life of apostle Paul II

    Leaving for his mission Paul didn´t make himself unaccountable just because he had already been anointed and free. At that moment Paul had become a mature minister established many churches. Nevertheless, he was still an accountable person. He returned to the church at Antioch, to the place he had been sent from, to meet those whom God had been made an authority over Paul. Moreover, Paul also held an account before the apostles in Jerusalem regarding the way his ministry was going.«Then after a period of fourteen years I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, taking Titus also with me. I went up by revelation, and I laid before them the gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately before those who were respected, for fear that I might be running, or had run, in vain». (Galatians 2:1-2).

  • God’s discipline II

    1. Use the spiritual weapons God has given you: «Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armour of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armour of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God» (Ephesians, 6:10-17).
