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

ByPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 3 minutes
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

  • 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.

    «“You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbour, and hate your enemy.’ But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you, that you may be children of your Father who is in heaven. For he makes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the just and the unjust.». (Matthew 5:43-45).If only all people lived according to the commandments of love there would be much less pain and tragedies on Earth. There would be much less tears on Earth if people took care for each other instead of seeking their own benefits.

    We continue to speculate on God´s desire to change us for our own benefit. As we stated, by letting God to change us according to His will and following Jesus people around will see a reflection of Heaven in our life and in our ministry.Do you remember when the elders of synagogue, scribes and Sadducees met Jesus disciples after He was resurrected, they faced a supernatural courage in them.

    Let’s look at the steps that Solomon took in order to find the meaning of life. We will see what conclusions Solomon came to. The first thing Solomon turned to was acquiring of wisdom and knowledge. «I communed with my heart, saying, „Look, I have attained greatness, and have gained more wisdom than all who were before me in Jerusalem. My heart has understood great wisdom and knowledge.” And I set my heart to know wisdom and to know madness and folly. I perceived that this also is grasping for the wind. For in much wisdom is much grief, and he who increases knowledge increases sorrow» (Ecclesiastes, 1:16-18).

  • Everything that gets into God’s hands multiplies

    For several days now we have been discussing the how the gift when it is used makes room for us and takes us before great people. When the gift is used it broadens our possibilities and destroys limitations. Thank God for creating us just the way we are.Dear friend, you have been given the things you need to start your supernatural ministry. Do not view your gift as being something small and insignificant. When Jesus told His disciples to feed the multitude, they argued with Him, saying: “We have here only five loaves and two fish”. I guess the disciples expected Jesus to say: «Oh, yes! Then let the people go, because we don’t have enough for everyone!» But Jesus did not say that. He managed to feel the multitude of people because one little boy gave back to the Lord the little he had.
