Greatness starts with little things!

ByPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 2 minutes
This is the day the Lord has made that we might rejoice and celebrate before Him! God’s mercy has been renewed for every one of us this morning. God continues to pour out on us His mercies and His abundance! His love towards us is unending. There is nothing and no-one that can separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus. But God expects us to also love Him in return. The Bible says:
«And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength. This is the first commandment» (Mark, 12:30).
The one who loves always desires to do something for the object of his love; he always seeks ways to serve and to give the best of himself. It is possible to give without loving; it is possible to serve without loving; but it is impossible to love and not give yourself by serving. Because of His great love towards us God gave the biggest treasure – His only Son Jesus Christ. What are we ready to give to God, Who loves us so dearly? How strong is our love towards Him?God is calling us to minister to Him and to our loved ones. In order for us to do that He has given us certain talents. God is telling us to use them and spread His Kingdom in the process of doing that.
«So he called ten of his servants, delivered to them ten minas, and said to them, ‘Do business till I come’» (Luke, 19:13).
It is the Lord’s commandment – to use the talents that God has given us.Greatness starts with little things! 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).
Till tomorrow!Today be faithful and obedient to God in small things!Pastor Rufus Ajiboye

    In the Gospel of Mathew Jesus told a parable about Master giving his servants different talents. «For the kingdom of heaven is like a man travelling to a far country, who called his own servants and delivered goods to them. And to one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one, to each according to his own ability; and immediately he went on a journey» (Mathew, 25: 14-15).Jesus shows us here that the criterion of His assessment is not quantity, but faithfulness. God know that every one of us has different abilities, so the quantitative result will be different for different people. Numbers are not important to Jesus; He cares about how faithful you have been with what God has given you. He cares about your attitude towards His work.

    Laying hold of eternal life means that a person strives to stay on the narrow road which leads to eternal life. Jesus knew that it would be so convenient for many to walk the broad road; being on this road, a person feels comfortable and lives without any restrictions; he does what he wants to do and is not limited by any commitments. But the Bible says that it is the way of sin, because a person is not accountable and moves ‘without brakes’, so to speak; this way leads to destruction. God says that we shouldn’t walk on this way. We must flee sin; we must cast aside all the worldly, ungodly things that hinder us, otherwise we won’t get to our destination – eternal life. Jesus says that many people will deny faith.

    When I hear the preaching of God’s Word, God speaks to me through someone else. When I read the Word, God speaks to me directly. There are things He wants to speak to me personally, without mediators. God wants me to fellowship with Him so that He can teach me. When you hear the word through the other preaching of people, you can hear things that you do not fully understand or you might even say you do not agree with some things. However, when you fellowship with God through the reading of His Word and God reveals some things to you, you cannot say it is someone else’s opinion.
