Without faith it is IMPOSSIBLE to please God

ByPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 3 minutes
I am so glad that we have another opportunity to draw wisdom from the Lord Jesus Christ. Today I will like to talk with you on a very vital topic, and that is on Faith. I believe it is the desire of every serious child of God to please God with his or her life. The Bible already tell us one way we can do that, and that is by walking in faith. Hebrew 11:6 declares that without faith it is IMPOSSIBLE to please God. Please note that this scriptures is not saying it will be difficult to please God without faith, but rather it says it will be an impossible task to please God without faith.Faith, – biblical faith is cooperation with God in all sense. God will not do everything for you. He will not do for you, what you are unwilling to do yourself. Don’t just fold your arm in passivity expecting God to put bread in your mouth. The proof that you have faith in God is to carry out the instruction you already know. That is the essence of praying and reading the Bible, – to discern His will and understand His mind concerning a given situation and then act on what you know God is calling you to do. As soon as God reveal to you His will concerning any situation or areas of your life, He is expecting from you the corresponding action. It is your ability to act on the Word of God that proves to God the level of your faith or trust in Him.The Word said faith without work is dead.
 “For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also “ (Jas 2:26).
Throughout the whole Bible we can see that faith is always connected with definite action of the believer. For example, Peter told Jesus “ at thy word I will let down the net”
” And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net” (Luke 5:5).
This became the point of breakthrough in the life and business of Peter. Do you aspire divine breakthrough in your life? Faith will play a vital role in that. However, Faith is action and not passive expectation of miracle from God. Proof to God through your action and attitude today that you trust Him and you have Faith in His Word.Remember, Faith is cooperation between God and man. God does His own part and man must do his own part as well. May the Lord bless you abundantly this wonderful day of the week! See you next time! Pastor Rufus Ajiboye

    You may ask why people act the way they act? Why don’t people sometimes understand very elementary things? Why do people hear the truth, but do not change? There are invisible things that keep people in bondage. There are strongholds that cannot be destroyed by teaching, sermons, instructions and lectures. They are spiritual things. What happens when the church prays? These strongholds collapse and some real changes take place. We cannot afford not to pray and try to admonish other people; usually people listen to us, say that they understand, but do the same thing all over again.

    «He who sins is of the devil, for the devil has sinned from the beginning. For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil» (1 John, 3:8).The devil deceived Adam and Eve who were reflecting the glory of God in the earth, because he hated God and all the things that brought glory to God. Adam and Eve were given a free will and a right to choose and they decided to disobey God and submit to the voice of the devil. That is how sin entered their life and the life of all of the generations after them. They gave themselves and their posterity into the hands of death. And since that time death has begun its reign over people.

  • Your gift will make room for you

    Today I would like to start talking about the topic I have titled as: “Your gift will make room for you”. The Word of God says: «A man’s gift makes room for him, and brings him before great men» (Proverbs, 18: 16).Your gift will make room for you and will broaden your boarders, if you won’t hide it. So many times believers ask: «Where is my place in the Body of Christ? What is my calling?»Do what you know. This simple principle gives an answer to many questions. Find the thing that you know how to do; find what you can do to promote the Kingdom of God, to help the church to grow and to extend your influence in the society.

The realizations of God’s mercy filled Joseph’s heart with gratitude toward God and his master.

    «His lord said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant; you have been faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord’» (Mathew, 25:23).Some people get tired and need help even before they start to do something significant. But tell me! Is it possible that you need rest or take a break from God? Is it possible that you need rest from serving Him? No! We can serve God everywhere. You can be on a plane and serve people who sit by you. You can serve God on a beach, at work, everywhere; because in all of these places there are people who need God.
