How can we face any opposition and problem with our faces shining at the same time?

ByPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 2 minutes
Peace to you, dear friends!I thank the Lord for the regular opportunity to share with you the word of wisdom from the Lord. The Bible says that wisdom makes a person’s face to shine. Therefore today, I would like to talk about how we can overcome shame and dishonour in our lives.
„Those who look to him are radiant; their faces are never covered with shame.” (Psalms 34:5)
The wisdom that makes a person’s face shine is hidden in this Scripture. How can we overcome dishonour and shame in our lives? How can we face any opposition and problem with our faces shining at the same time?The Scripture mentioned above teaches that it is necessary for us to look unto God by entering into His presence and learn to draw strength and wisdom from Him. Let us look at the life of Moses. Moses’ face was shined when he descended from the mountain where he spent time conversing with God. This is what Psalms 34:5 is talking about. Those who looked unto God and met with Him were definitely enlightened. Such people will never be disgraced.
„ 28 Moses was there with the LORD forty days and forty nights without eating bread or drinking water. And he wrote on the tablets the words of the covenant—the Ten Commandments. 29 When Moses came down from Mount Sinai with the two tablets of the Testimony in his hands, he was not aware that his face was radiant because he had spoken with the LORD.” (Exodus 34:28-29)
After Moses descended from the prayer mountain, he even did not know his face was shining. It is not compulsory that we know or see how this happens to us as well. All we need to know is that God says that those who look to Him will definitely radiate light,- the light of God’s glory and majesty. This is what will separate a person from every shame and dishonour. Dear friends, this is the word of God for you today: look unto Him, learn to spend time with God, learn to be in God’s presence, and then you will see that your face will start shining. Enemies will not be able to overcome and gain victory over people who spend time with God. May God bless you!Until tomorrow! Pastor Rufus Ajiboye

    Breakthrough always changes a person’s status and position. Today, I want to draw your attention to the fact that in this story, not only the crippled man experienced a breakthrough but also Peter and John, the Apostles. Not only the cripples need a breakthrough. Every person needs a breakthrough!Along with the crippled man, also Peter and John, the Apostles, experienced a breakthrough, because miracles that had not happened beforein through their ministry took place exactly on that day. Ever since then, different miracles never ceased in their lives and ministries. Even the shadow of Peter who started healing the sick as he passed by them. Imagine what will happen to you when you begin to experience a continual breakthrough in every sphere of your life.

    «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)

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

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 6 minutes
    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.

  • God wants His children to be a part of the solution for His needs!

    Some of you may wonder: “Does God have any problems or needs, He is the Almighty One, isn´t He?” The point is that God has decided to limit Himself by people. In the material world, in some situations and in some spheres of life God has decided not to do certain things without people participation. In other words, it doesn´t matter how hard we pray or fast about certain problems, those will not be solved unless the right person appears at the right place.

    There is wisdom that is revealed and open for some people and continues to open daily; but for some people, this wisdom is like hidden treasure they are not able to enjoy. It is the Word of God that is God’s treasure. Today we will talk about God’s Word and about our attitude towards it. The people that have the Bible have a true treasure at their disposal.
