God is the only one who knows the true meaning of human life

ByPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 4 minutes
Good day dear friends and welcome to our column «Daily word for spiritual strength» today. Let the mercy of the Lord be with you the whole day today! I thank God for this opportunity to share the word of revelation He put into my heat with you. Yesterday we determined that we were born in order to fulfil a certain task from God. 
«For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared before that we would walk in them». (Ephesians 2:10).
 We are saved by Jesus Christ not by our deeds, to be followed by good deeds God has determined for us. Once we realise that He created us, we understand that our life on this Earth is absolutely meaningless without Him, without relationship and collaboration with God. Without Him we would resemble those who lack brain, wandering in the desert, having no certain way to go. Therefore, such people walk in the dark without light, staggering like a drunken man. 
«He takes away understanding from the chiefs of the people of the earth, And causes them to wander in a wilderness where there is no way. They grope in the dark without light. He makes them stagger like a drunken man.» (Job 12:24-25).
 Describing the destiny of those whose iniquities have separate them from God, the prophet Isiah compared them with living dead. 
«but your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hidden his face from you, so that he will not hear. The way of peace they don’t know; and there is no justice in their goings: they have made them crooked paths; whoever goes therein does not know peace. Therefore is justice far from us, neither does righteousness overtake us: we look for light, but, behold, darkness; for brightness, but we walk in obscurity. We grope for the wall like the blind; yes, we grope as those who have no eyes: we stumble at noonday as in the twilight; among those who are lusty we are as dead men.» (Isiah 59:2,8-10).
 We will never get to know nor enter the God´s plan for our life without close relationships with God. Without His revelation about His plans and intentions for or life we have no future, no hope. That´s why the Bible calls us to turn to God in prayer and seek His presence with all our heart right after He has revealed the fact that He his a plan for our life.  
«For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says Yahweh, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you hope in your latter end. You shall call on me, and you shall go and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You shall seek me, and find me, when you shall search for me with all your heart.». (Jeremiah 29:11-13).
 Understanding of your goal and intention is the only thing that leads a man to perfection and satisfaction. Without such revelation about the goal people die and annihilate themselves. Look, what Solomon says about it: 
«Where there is no revelation, the people cast off restraint;…» (Proverbs 29:18).
 Revelation about our destiny can only be given to us from above, since we´ve been created by the Almighty God. Without seeking God, studying His word and calling upon Him we are doomed to spend the whole our life cast off restraint, having no real goal in our life.This is the reason why many people are so unhappy today, regardless of all their achievements and benefits they have got. If you have no idea what the goal of your life is or the course you have chosen doesn´t match the plan God has for you then you won´t have peace in your heart, nor will be happy. Happiness without relationships with God, Creator is a myth, utopia and suffering. Only God knows the true purpose of your life. Scientists, psychologists, philosophers, astrologists, extra-senses, fortune tellers – none of those nor anybody else are able to play the role of God. God created us and He as a Creator alone knows the true purpose of a human life. We just have to call to Him and seek His presence with all our heart then He will reveal His plans to His children.Let´s continue tomorrow!Go with Christ!Rufus Adjiboje, pastor

  • Effective prayer of a believer is a serious threat to Satan´s plans and actions

    Why does Satan hate it and is afraid of the prayers of the children of God? This is because in a prayer, we and God become a team – an invincible team. In the Book of Daniel, there is a description of an event when a certain group of people prompted the king to issue a law prohibiting contact in a prayer with the living God. Except for the living God, they were allowed to pray any other gods. They were allowed to ask for help to people, but not only living God. And it was Satan´s plan. Why does Satan put these obstacles? Because he realized that the prayer is power.

    Begin using the little things you have and be faithful and consistent in it; then you will be surprised to see what can grow out of it. The seed of greatness is in every person right now. But this seed will grow and bring harvest only if you will plant it and use it according to its original purpose.«A little one shall become a thousand, and a small one a strong nation. I, the Lord, will hasten it in its time» (Isaiah, 60:22).

  • The lordship of Jesus Christ II

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 3 minutes
    «The LORD said to my Lord, “Sit at My right hand, till I make Your enemies Your footstool.” The LORD shall send the rod of Your strength out of Zion. Rule in the midst of Your enemies» (Psalm 110:1-2).This passage talks about Christ: «Rule in the midst of Your enemies», but the Body of Christ — His Church — is included in this prophetic word. Jesus was told to sit at the right hand of God; but it would be God’s children that would overcome God’s enemies and every thing that rise against the will of God. God wants us to rule and reign in the midst of the enemies and unfavourable circumstances. We must rule because we have been given God’s authority and we were born conquerors.

  • Responsibility as a Key to Success!

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 6 minutes
    Why is it important to be a responsible person?One of the reasons is that the level of authority and power is directly related to how responsible you are. Even if you seem to have authority with people, but you treat life lightly, it is highly probable that soon enough you will lose your standing with people. And it applies to all settings: whether it is church, family, business or individuals. Responsibility, success and authority – all these phenomena are closely related. You cannot be successful and irresponsible at the same time.
