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

  • God reveals His plan gradually

    Yesterday we began talking about the importance of knowing God’s will for our lives. We established that God has a particular plan with precise assignments for every person. But God reveals His plan gradually.God reveals His plan to us as we reach certain levels of maturity and grow in our ability to accept what He has prepared for us. As God shows us the details of His plan, we can learn to walk in obedience in those areas where God has already revealed us His will. And during this time we can simply trust Him to carry out His sovereign plan for our life.

  • How to enter your ministry?

    If a person doesn’t have any desire to serve, it is very difficult to motivate him. This desire has to be strong enough to move you to action; otherwise you won’t do anything. It is easy to teach and lead a person that has a desire and an interest in something. And it is very difficult to convince and motivate the one who is indifferent. Where does the desire to serve come from? This desire comes from the understanding of God’s will and the purpose of our salvation.

  • Concentrate on the reward, not on the pain and discomfort

    In order for us to seize the potential advantages that are hidden in pain and sufferings, we must learn the true nature and essence of sufferings. Firstly, our present pains are temporary comparing to eternal torture that awaits every person who lives a life of compromise in pursuit of personal comfort. Secondly, our present pain is light comparing to the glory of God that awaits every person who endures pains with dignity. By going through the temporary sufferings, we gain eternal glory and joy. Temporary sufferings multiply our eternal glory if endured with the right attitude.

    The world is changing very rapidly. I am convinced that new changes will come into our lives with an increasing speed. If I told you about different predictions and ideas that experts have about our future, then the hearts of many people would be filled with fear. One pastor spoke to me about it and I saw his heart getting filled with fear after hearing all the predictions. He asked me what to do with all of it; is it worth making big plans if all these terrible things are inevitably coming upon the earth? I told him that – thank God – we have the Bible that contains all the answers.

  • How can we experience God in our life? III

    Let Him talk to your heart today. We keep on talking about how we can experience God´s presence, power and His mercy in our life. Yesterday we stated that constant fellowship with God is mandatory in order to experience these things. We quoted many verses from Scripture telling us that people who love God have obvious advantages. For such people God has prepared many pleasant surprises and all things together work for good in their lives and God Himself appears to them.«We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to his purpose.» (Romans 8:28).
