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

  • The importance of stopping all activities and being alone with God

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 3 minutes
    «From there He arose and went to the region of Tyre and Sidon. And He entered a house and wanted no one to know it, but He could not be hidden.»Jesus came to Tyra and Sidon to find some solitude and rest from people because His last day was coming closer – the day of His death on the Golgotha. Possibly, Jesus wanted to be alone with His Father to discuss what was awaiting Him on the Golgotha. Thus, Jesus was showing us an example of stopping all activities and being alone with God. We also need – every once in a while – to leave all the clutter of this world and all its cares and to find time for being alone with the Father. God is calling you today to find right time and a right place to be alone with God even among all the cares and stresses of this world. By doing it you will be able to gain access to godly wisdom, receive peace from God and succeed in this life.

    One of proofs of your love for God is to love those whom He loves. You know that God loves the Church of Jesus Christ, and that He also loves the lost people (who have not yet come to the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ). How your love for God is reflected in your attitude towards the church and unbelievers around you?Do you have the passion to see His church grow and to advance the values of the Kingdom of God through His Church Do you have the passion to see His lost sheep brought back to his fold?

    “For we were saved in this hope, but hope that is seen is not hope; for why does one still hope for what he sees? But if we hope for what we do not see, we eagerly wait for it with perseverance.”These verses remind us that we have been saved in the hope. When you go through pain, you cannot lose hope.

    «…Write the vision, and make it plain on tablets, that he may run who reads it.» (Habakkuk 2:2).Make notes of everything you believe in, everything that God speaks to your heart during prayer, fasting or Bible studies on the paper! For example, you may say: “I wish I could preach the word of God followed by miracles and wondrous things”, or “I wish I could bring relief to orphans by giving some of them a shelter in my house”, or ”I want to establish a school for those who would minister in the church”.

  • How we gain or receive the Fear of God in our life?

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 3 minutes
    First, we must choose with our will to have the fear of God above all else. Proverbs 1:29 says, “Since they hated knowledge and did not choose to fear the Lord…” God will not give this fear to us unless we want it. We must see this as something we choose above all else because we desperately need it.
