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

    God has set particular order in His Kingdom; there are some principles that the Kingdom of God is based on: humble people open for themselves the grace of walking in the fear of the Lord and they experience riches, honour and full life from God, – the Word of God says so. Prideful and haughty sooner or later are humbled and their life is filled with falls and destruction.If we desire God’s promotion we need to walk in humility and obedience to God. So many people after they get promoted become unapproachable, unsociable, and haughty.

    « Because I have called, and you have refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no one has paid attention; … Then will they call on me, but I will not answer. They will seek me diligently, but they will not find me; Because they hated knowledge, And didn’t choose the fear of Yahweh. » (Proverbs 1:24, 28, 29).In these verses God tells us about the necessity to change our attitude towards His call, otherwise He would not listen to our calling the time we run to Him with our petitions. Forget about your own problems and take part in finding solutions for the needs and problems God has today, He will become a part of a solution for your problems then.

    Prayer is meaningful time with God.I will explain what I mean by that. Quite often I use the word ‘time’. Prayer is one of the means of organizing and managing the time we have been given. What is the topic of our prayers is a very interesting question. We all talk about it. There are so many books written on prayer. But who is the person who prays truly effectively? This is a very serious question. God desires us to arrange our lives for effective prayer; it will take our ministry and our whole life to a much higher level.

    1) Jesus gave some commandments to the Apostles BY THE HOLY SPIRIT (verse 2).Jesus Himself relied on the Holy Spirit in everything He did during His days in flesh. When He took on flesh, He was limited by it and He needed the Holy Spirit. As people we live in flesh and we also are limited by it. The only way for us to overcome these limitations is to rely on the Holy Spirit. We must be aware of the necessity and our dependency on the Holy Spirit. We must seek Him daily.

    «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.
