How to set grace free in our lives? II

ByPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 3 minutes
I am glad to welcome you to our Daily Word for Spiritual Strength section! I believe that God has a word of encouragement for you today!We began to talk how to set free the power of favour in our lives. Yesterday we found out that our awareness of the laws of life brings the favour on display in our lives. We also said that one of the main laws governing the operation of favour in our lives, is the law of sowing and reaping.Today, I want us to return to the discussion of this law.The law of sowing and reaping governs how favour works. It is necessary to look at favour as a seed that must be sown. Jesus said that,
“Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.” (Matthew 5:7).
In other words, Jesus is saying, “Blessed are those who have sown favour or mercy, because they will reap favour or mercy”.Generally, the level of favour operating in your life depends on the level of the seed of favour you sow into other people’s lives. This means that I cannot expect the harvest of favour in my life until I have not sown mercy into other people’s lives.It is important to understand that favour does not just jump on people and does not come automatically or by accident. Note as well that favour is the function of prayers and fasting alone. Basically, the power of favour is subjected to the law of sowing and reaping.If you are graceful towards the Kingdom of God and other people, then you can confidently expect favour to come and fill your life.You will reap only from those seeds of favour that you are sowing. Therefore the Bible says, 
“Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows.” (Galatians 6:7).
If you are cheating people and are not faithful in your lifestyle, then you are choosing the hard way for yourself. You cannot manage to avoid the consequences of the law of sowing and reaping. You will receive with gain all what you have been sowing into other people’s lives.Please understand that favour is a seed that will yield harvest in our lives after we have sown it. You have the abilities and opportunities to sow favour, therefore do not wait for favour, but start right now to provoke or intiniate favour sowing the seed of kindness into the lives of surrounding you!May God bless you!Pastor Rufus Ajiboye

    Paul is saying that many people hear the Gospel but still are not enlightened by that. These people had made their choice to continue living in sin, therefore, satan, the god of this world had blinded their minds so that the light of Gospel remains unveiled to them, regardless of how hard somebody tries to share the gospel with them. Nevertheless, Paul and his partners presented to others the brightest light of the Gospel, – that is Christ Himself, who is the image of God. Paul was convinced that people should be able to see God in Christ, so he preached Christ and instead of preaching about himself.

    “Nevertheless, God’s solid foundation stands firm, sealed with this inscription: “The Lord knows those who are his,” and “Everyone who confesses the name of the Lord must turn away from wickedness.” (2 Tim.2:19)Practical righteousness is the solid foundation on which to build your Christian life and ensure that you receive God’s favour. If as a Christian you still continue to live in sin and make it part of your lifestyle, then you are eliminating yourself from God’s favour.

    In order to hear God’s voice, it is necessary that you learn to stop and calm down – calm down your mind, feelings, emotions, and only then you can hear what God says to you. When you learn to hear God’s voice, not only will you have eternal life, but also life in abundance, which is concealed in you. There will be problems, but you will be able to rejoice, because you will be sure that your God has an answer for any question, your God is able to solve any problem. Human mind tries to calculate everything – how are all things going, how everything must happen. Our minds work like fast processors. But the problem is that situations appear in our lives, and we cannot solve them. What happens to our mind-processor then? It falls out.

  • Ministry and giving determines the measure of one’s spiritual growth and maturity

    We are still talking about the blessedness of ministry and giving. We discussed that the one who loves God always serves people. Whoever serves people is blessed and exalted by God. God can’t support those that are only concerned with their own well-being and does not have any time for the promotion of the Kingdom of God.Ministry and giving determines the measure of one’s spiritual growth and maturity. It also determines how much I bear a resemblance to Jesus Christ. God wants us to grow spiritually. One of the indications of one’s spiritual growth is how he or she fulfils the needs of others. Such a person not only takes and receives, but also gives. Giving and ministry is one and the same word that determines how much of resemblance to Jesus Christ I bear.

    “Whoever has my commands and obeys them, he is the one who loves me. He who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love him and show myself to him.”According to the above passage, there is a process or protocol we need to follow if we want to see and experience the manifestations of God in our lives and in ministries.Now it is true that God is an omnipresence God. He is present everywhere at the same time. However, it is important to note that his presence is more real and felt in some places than anywhere else. What determines such a big difference? This is what I mean when I say we need to follow a protocol. Following the right protocol is what differentiates between the intensity of God’s manifest presence in our lives, home and churches.
