God has appointed every one of us for the ministry, so that all of us would grow into Him!

Greetings to you, dear readers of „Daily Word for Spiritual Edification”!For several days now we have been discussing – in my opinion – a very important topic „What are you doing with your talent?”If you have not learnt yet what your talents are, then you need to shut yourself in a room, pray to God and ask Him, „What can I do for the Kingdom of God, even if it is something small? I do not just want to be an idle watcher or a visitor who is on the receiving end only and not giving something back. I want to do something for God so that His Kingdom would grow”. God will answer you and show you your talents and the things you can do in His Kingdom.God relies on our service in order to build His Kingdom. The Church and Kingdom function as a body. A body has many members. A body has arms, legs, veins, a heart and a liver, also hair and nails etc. Every body has visible and invisible organs, and all of them are equally important. Imagine the House of God being a body. This Body grows as every member does his or her part.
«..but, speaking the truth in love, may grow up in all things into Him who is the head – Christ – from whom the whole body, joined and knit together by what every joint supplies, according to the effective working by which every part does its share, causes growth of the body for the edifying of itself in love» (Ephesians, 4:15-16).
This passage of Scripture tells us what is the desire of God. He has appointed every one of us for the ministry, so that all of us would grow into Him Who is the Head – Christ; so that we all would be joined to Him and focused on Him, His Kingdom and the work of His Kingdom. Jesus must be the centre of everything. Every member does its share and then the Body grows in the love of God and every one enjoys and benefits from it. We will all enjoy the Church, if every one of us does his or her part to the best of our abilities. I need to do only what I am able to do and not worry about what I do not have and what I cannot do, – otherwise i will be crush under such burden. I must only concentrate my attention on how to multiply my talents.It is high time to locate your ministry and do your part in the Body of Christ! This is very important both for God and for you!May God abundantly bless you on this day!Pastor Rufus Ajiboye

  • Prayer is submitting to the will of God

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 4 minutes
    When we pray we place ourselves in submission to God’s will for our lives. The very fact that you come to God in prayer is the proof of your submission to God.The Bible tells us to pray always; it is the command of the Lord. That is why when I come to God in prayer then the very act of praying places me in the position of submission to this command. In other words, if I don’t pray, thus I demonstrate the lack of submission to the will of God; because praying is the command of God.

  • Preparation is a key to effective life

    In reality, effective life is impossible without appropriate preparation. Jesus solved the question of effectiveness by preparing Himself for the ministry. There is almost no information about what Jesus had been doing during the first 30 years of His life. Gospels tell us the story about His ministry. Meanwhile, we need to understand that prior to starting His ministry Jesus had been seriously preparing himself for quite a long time.

  • We must learn to think big!

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 5 minutes
    God’s Kingdom is bigger than just a church; the Kingdom cannot be hidden inside the church walls. The Bible tells us that we are salt to the earth and light to the world. It means that our ministry has to go beyond the boarders of a church and leave an impact on the city, the country and the world. We need to think of how to salt the earth and enlighten the world.We should start locally; but we must think globally. «You shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth», – said Jesus in Acts (1: 8).

  • The importance of unity

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 3 minutes
    This Scripture tells us that the people had one goal, they had one language, and they put forth a unified effort, and it says about them that “now nothing that they propose to do will be withheld from them”. God said that because of their unity they would be successful in everything that they do. In the Bible God often speaks to His people about unity. Unity is a very important key that allows us as God’s people or the Church to fulfill the will of God and our calling in this earth.

    Today I’d like us to discuss about the life of Abraham. I believe God wants to show us some very important principles that can be gleaned from the life of Abraham and in his relationship with God. “Now the Lord had said to Abram: “Get out of your country, from your family and from your father’s house, to a land that I will show you. I will make you a great nation; I will bless you and make your name great; and you shall be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who curses you; and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.” (Genesis, 12:1-3)
