God is looking for fruits in your life!

Good day, dear friends! I praise God for another opportunity to share the wisdom from God with you. As we discussed earlier, everything God does in your life, He does for the sole purpose, namely, to make us bear good fruits that would reflect His nature, wisdom and strength. We glorify His Name by bearing the good fruits. Bearing no fruits and leaving everything God has granted us with intact we will lose everything. When such thing happens, the anointment of the Holy Spirit disappears then such person begins to rely only on his own strength; as a result he lives in his weakness instead of living in the power of God, foolishness replaces wisdom in his life while the safe ground turns into vulnerability. So, God is looking for fruits in your life! Many of you are already bearing fruits for the Kingdom of Heaven. You are looking at your life and say: “Thanks God, I am bearing fruits that I even can demonstrate to other people.” That’s all right, but Jesus told us about another level where you can multiply your fruits even more. Maybe you are bearing fruits that are changing your life and people around you can testify about these things happen. Perhaps, many people who know what kind of person you were earlier now can notice drastic, positive changes in your life since you have turned to God. Probably, certain qualities of your character have changed or you speak different to the way you used to in the past. Maybe you think or act different way. You might have even come closer to God than ever before. You may have fruits of saved souls – people who repented because of the fellowship with you and because they noticed changes in your life. Regardless of all these things Jesus says you may bear even more fruits. In what way you might ask! More means more than you already bear today. We must have exactly this kind of desire. We have to aspire towards this – to bear fruits. Self-satisfaction is one of main enemies than becomes an obstacle to fruitful life. A person is self-satisfied when he or she is happy with what has been achieved in his or her life. When person is happy with what has already been achieved he stops moving forward. Sometimes, your success or achievements become a most difficult problem or even a danger in your life. It becomes more difficult to move forward when we begin installing monuments to our achievements. God wants us not to watch our achievements nor stop at it. He doesn’t want us to retire nor to take a holiday, instead His desire for us is to constantly move forward, bearing more and more fruits. Besides, we are capable of doing that, because we are in Christ Jesus. Pronounce the following words if you desire to bear many fruits for God in your life. 
«Lord, I desire to bear more fruits in my life. I am asking You to cleanse me, so that I become capable of bearing more fruits. I accept God’s grace to stay on the vine tree. I shall bear much fruits for God in Jesus Name!»
 The Bible says we should grow until we reach perfection in Christ (see Ephesians, Chapter 4). Therefore, it doesn’t matter how anointed and fruitful you are now, there is a higher level prepared for you by God – the higher level of effectiveness and fertility. Apostle Paul says: 
«Not that I have already obtained, or am already made perfect; but I press on, if it is so that I may take hold of that for which also I was taken hold of by Christ Jesus. Brothers, I don’t regard myself as yet having taken hold, but one thing I do. Forgetting the things which are behind, and stretching forward to the things which are before, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus». (Philippians 3:12-14).
 Having had the desire to have more than he already possessed, Paul was constantly moving forward. If some people had achieved the level of fertility Paul had, they would rather install a huge monument to themselves and would be doing nothing until the second coming of Christ. Meanwhile, Paul walked in Spirit and enjoyed special power from God. He was a fruitful apostle of Jesus Christ. Paul had significant spiritual achievements, nevertheless, he never considered himself as made perfect. He had a desire to constantly grow and bear more fruits for God. You can learn these things from apostle Paul. Never stop stretching forward but grow up and bear fruits for God! Let’s continue tomorrow!God bless each of you and each of your relatives!Rufus Adjiboje, pastor

    We must keep God’s call to change right before our eyes as one of the most important goals. As soon as we come to God and enter His Kingdom, the desire to change and grow into the likeness of Jesus should be our single desire and our daily bread. And when we start changing, the things around us will change along with the inward changes we experience. Then the most awful situation will change for better and terrible problems will be solved. All of this will happen along with the transformation of our character in the process of the spiritual growth.

    Maybe you are praying to God and it seems to you that the answer isn’t going to come, maybe you feel like giving up on prayer, you think that prayer doesn’t work.

  • Wisdom of a man and wisdom of God

    There are a wisdom of this world and God´s wisdom. God´s wisdom differs from the wisdom of this world the way that it´s hidden until the God Himself reveals it to the people. As for the wisdom of this world, that´s a human wisdom gained using five methods of perception, or sense: hearing, sight, touch, smell, and taste, which are the natural channels used to gain a knowledge.Differently from God´s wisdom that exists for our glory, the wisdom of a man once passes away. The Bible says, that «the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men», even more His wisdom is. God´s wisdom is much higher than the wisdom of a man.
