Find someone you can trust fully and without holding back and confess to them!

Greetings to you, dear friends!Grace and peace to you from Father God and our Lord Jesus Christ!Yesterday we established the main biblical forms of accountability. Let’s name them again:(1)    Teacher – disciple.(2)    Comrades and collaborates in the Lord.(3)    Team or small group (home group).(4)    Marriage.(5) Local church.We also talked about the fact that it all begins with your decision to be accountable to someone, because that is God’s will for every one in us. Besides, we saw that we need to pray for God to show us the person He wants to us to be accountable to. We saw that this person must be devoted to God and not compromise God’s Word, is not afraid to speak the truth, because he loves you and wants to help you. Also you must respect this person and be willing to accept correction and instruction from him or her.One more important moment is that it is advisable to seek the help of a person of the same sex: woman to woman, man to man. Of course, there can be exception, for example, husband and wife, father and daughter, mother and son, brother and sister, close relatives etc.When you open up to a person God has placed as overseer over you, you must go to that person and tell him that you want to be accountable to him and give regular accounts of your life. Besides, you must give this person time to think over your proposal. If he or she is willing to enter this type of relationships, then together you have to decide on the time, form and structure of your meetings. Also you must determine how often you will meet, what you are going to talk about, what issues you will discuss. This person should be able to ask you a forward question about how far you are willing to let him into the matters of your life. He has a right to get an answer to this question because it wasn’t his idea to start this relationship; it was yours, and you are the one that wants to give account to him or her. And you did it being aware that this relationship provides for you God’s protection and healing.God desires to heal many of you who are reading this message. He wants you to find that person who you can give account to and repent of your actions and offences. Through accountability God wants to heal you and give you freedom. Some of you are tormented by not being able to confess your hidden sins. But God is calling you to allow His light shine upon those areas of your life that have been hidden until now.Based on the authority of God’s Word and by God’s Spirit I say to you that if you will not open the dark areas of your life to the person you are accountable to, then sooner or later everything will become evident to everyone; one of the Bible principles is that everything that is hidden will be brought to light.So, find someone you can trust fully and without holding back and confess to them. When that happens, you will experience tremendous freedom!Freedom comes when we walk in the light; it is not just how long we pray. When we do the right things that are based on God’s Word, the Son of God sets us free and we are free indeed: 
«Then Jesus said to those Jews who believed Him, “If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed. And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free» (John, 8:31-32).
 Lift up your hands to the Lord right now and say:«Dear Lord, I want to do Your will. Help me, Lord! I have no fear. The only fear I want to have in my life is the fear of the Lord. I don’t care what other people think of me, – I want to do what is right and I want to change. I want to give to you all my fears and faults, all the things that stand as a barrier in the way to growth and healing. I want to live in true freedom and wholeness. I want to be open before You and the people You have placed as overseers over my life. Help me, Jesus, to overcome my fears: fear of being vulnerable, fear of rejections, and fear of condemnation. Help me to overcome my distrust towards people. I thank You for delivering me from the things of my past. I thank you, Lord, for freedom. I do not want to experience the burdens of past sins. I want to move forward in God and enjoy the new life. Thank you, Lord, in Jesus name! Thank you for the revelation of Your Word. Thank you, Jesus, for the truth that sets us free. I want to be accountable; that is why I accept Your grace to live in  this truth. I accept God’s ability to do it, in Jesus name! I thank you, Jesus, for everything!» May God abundantly bless you and pour His grace upon you!Pastor Rufus Ajiboye

    Jesus dwells in me, therefore I must manifest His life to others. Jesus did not reveal Himself to others; He only revealed and manifested to others Who the Father is and He did only the Father’s will. God said in His Word that whoever glorifies Him will also be glorified by Him. When God glorifies or uplift you, nobody can break, humiliate or pull you down.«Now thanks be to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and through us diffuses the fragrance of His knowledge in every place.
