How to enter your ministry?

ByPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 3 minutes
Greetings to you, dear friends! This is the day that the Lord has made for us to 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 kindness! The Word of God is a tremendous blessing for all of us. Through it God edifies us and our faith.Yesterday we started discussing how we can enter our ministry. We established that, first; we need a strong desire to serve. This desire is tied to our understanding of God’s will and the purpose of our salvation. As we talked about, ministry helps us to reveal our potential. Ministry helps us to find out about ourselves, our calling in the establishment of God’s Kingdom on earth and doing the works that are pleasing to God. God has predestined for us to do particular good works. God desires for us to be fruitful and glorify Him on earth. Through our ministry God wants to fill this earth with the knowledge of Him and His Kingdom. He wants us to establish His principles in every sphere of life and win people for Him by the ministry we do on earth.What else do you need to enter your ministry? You must find out what you can serve with? You can only use what you have.
«Then Peter said, „Silver and gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk» (Acts, 3: 6).
A miracle in your life starts when you give to God what you have at the moment.
“So Elisha said to her, “What shall I do for you? Tell me, what do you have in the house?” And she said, “Your maidservant has nothing in the house but a jar of oil”.” (2 Kings, 4:2).
It is important to realize what you have:
  • Education
  • Experience, even the negative and the painful
  • Talents
  • Spiritual gifts
  • Skills and abilities
It says in the Bible that every one of us should serve by the gift that we have received from God.
 “Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is give to us, let us use them: if prophecy, let us prophesy in proportion to our faith; or ministry, let us use it in our ministering; he who teaches, in teaching; he who exhorts, in exhortation; he who gives, with liberality; he who leads, with diligence; he who shows mercy, with cheerfulness” (Romans, 12: 6-8).
«As each one has received a gift, minister it to one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God» (1 Peter, 4: 10).
God promises to bless everyone who will serve Him and the people with his or her gifts and talents. Ministry will help you to expand your borders and show you new horizons.We will continue tomorrow! I wish abundant God’s blessings!Pastor Rufus Ajiboye

    1. Set apart some time for prayer and commit to it.2. Plan where you will pray.It does not have to be at home, but you also do not need to turn prayer into some religious ritual. Be creative when you choose the place for prayer. For instance, there was a time in my life when I made walking into prayer time. I called it “a prayer walk”. I went out in the street for the purpose of prayer.

  • Why is it so important to hold on to eternal life?

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 5 minutes
    If you won’t be alert and pray, you won’t even notice how eternal life will slip away from you. Have you ever tried to hold a live fish in your hands? Even if you manage to take it, it can cunningly slip out of your hands. In the very same way eternal life can slip away from you without you even noticing. You won’t notice the moment when that happens. You could go on with your religious activities, attending church meetings, praying, reading the Bible, but not be on the way to eternal life. None of these things is able to guarantee to you that you will surely keep eternal life. You know, so many unbelievers do all these things: they go to church, read their Bibles, pray.

    God wants us to cooperate with Him. His future and our future is a great, bright one. But we have to cooperate with Him to make sure this imagined future becomes a reality in our lives.It might be that today you look small in your own eyes, but God wants to give you a great future. And He does not keep us in ignorance about the prospects for the future, and for this very reason He gave us the Holy Spirit. One of the things that the Holy Spirit does is revealing the future God has prepared for us.
