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

  • God is more interested in your spiritual growth, development of your character than a quick answer to your prayers!

    It would not be hard for God to give you what you are asking for; it is a lot harder to cause changes in you and your character. Humans tend to be so ungrateful. The people of Israel were wandering through the desert; they called out to God, He answered them, but it did not change them. Afterwards, when a different problem came they called out to God again, and He answered them and gave what they had asked for. Nevertheless, their hearts remained unchanged. God can answer your prayers again and again, but it is not a guarantee of permanent changes in your life. Quite often God allows certain situations in our lives that help us to grow spiritually.

    «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.

    «For if we judge ourselves, we would not be judged. But when we are judged, we are chastened by the Lord, that we may not be condemned with the world» (1 Corinthians, 11:31-32).So God chastises His children not for His own pleasure, but for our correction and for us to participate in His holiness. God does that in order for us to bring forth the peaceful fruit of righteousness and not to be condemned with the world.

    «Therefore whoever hears these saying of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock. But everyone who hears these saying of Mine, and does not do them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand: and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on the house; and it fell. And great was its fall» (Mathew, 7:24-27)

  • What causes tragedies in our lives at all?

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 4 minutes
    Many people ask me: «If God is good, why does He allow so many tears, tragedies and sorrow in this world? If it´s not His merit then where does all the evil come from? Where does a tragedy come from? What is its source?» Honest and apparently innocent people that suffer want to know why and what are they suffering for. Consecrated, true believers that seek God with all their heart, and also suffer want to know why such things happen in their lives. People of all generations have asked these questions.
