Jesus came to fill the Earth with His glory

Good day dear friends! Welcome to the column “Daily word for spiritual strength”. I am glad to share the word of God with you.

Jesus didn´t come into this world to die on the cross so that people become religious and indifferent to God. Contrariwise, Jesus came to fill the Earth with His glory just like rivers fill the seas. Jesus set an example of what we have to do. Wherever Jesus showed up He stirred the place! Everywhere He showed up people responded to His visit both positively and negatively. Some of them said: “Watch the Messiah, He is the answer, He is the son of God!” while the others stated: “He is obsessed by demons, He is a sinner, blasphemer, He is dangerous, so He must die”.

Though, nobody was indifferent towards Jesus. People always discussed Him. The same way us, once we let Jesus work through our life, the place around us will be stirred, so nobody will stay indifferent. It will become difficult then, to ignore us, to avoid talking about us and the God we represent. People will definitely discuss our deeds. But what is even more important, God will be able to use us to carry out His plans. Today there are people in our town who say our church comes from God and that we are doing a good job. Meanwhile, the other category of people are sure we are a dangerous sect. That´s normal. Once the town becomes stirred by the living God, people will talk about us even more.

Jesus needed a donkey to enter Jerusalem according the prophesy, but there was a problem with the donkey, it was tied up. Jesus sent two of His disciples to solve that problem saying:

«Go into the village that is opposite you, and immediately you will find a donkey tied, and a colt with her. Untiethem, and bring them to me». (Matthew 21:2).

Can you see how Jesus stirred the city? He sent His disciples there. Today God has physical body no more, today His church represents His body. We are His hands, His feet, His mouth and His heart. If we refuse to collaborate with God, He will not be able to act or fulfil His will in our cities and our countries. So how can we collaborate with Him, so that the Holy Spirit can come? What do we have to do in order to witness spiritual revival filling our cities?

Let´s talk about it tomorrow! God bless you abundantly! Rufus Ajiboye, pastor

  • The power of compassion

    Today I would like to talk about the power of compassion. If we look at the life of Jesus as the image of God – and that is Who Jesus is, – we will see that Jesus was motivated by compassion. When we are moved by compassion, we can’t be idle and barren. Our world is full of problems and God is calling us to work to solve them. We are His representatives on the earth. We are the Body of Christ on earth, so anything that God wants to do here He does through us.Looking at the life of Jesus we see that He never was idle. Every time when He wanted to be alone and relax after long hours of ministry, people would find Him and ask for help. And He never rejected anybody. Many times we read in the Bible: «He had compassion and ministered to them». He went from town to town, because He was anointed to bring solutions where problems were.
  • Analyze your work and your days! II

    In order for us to analyze our day, first of all we need to see that God had a plan of what He wanted to get done. He had a plan, a dream, and a vision of the world He wanted to create. We can not effectively analyze our day and our life without a concrete plan. You need to start your analysis with a question about your plans. Ask yourself: „Do I have a plan for my life?”
  • Piety II

    Calling upon God – means to have habitual prayer life. Prayer helps us to draw near to God and releases His provision, because He is close to all who call upon Him. We also talked about the fact that our provision depends not only on our ability to call upon God, but also on how much we fear God. To fear God means to avoid evil, to do good, to seek peace and to follow it. God’s provision and blessing is the reward of those who fear Him. We also pointed out that God has secrets that are meant for dedicated people who call upon His Name and walk in the fear of the Lord. Besides all of the above, it is important to know that dedication to God is impossible without the love for Him.
  • The truth shall make free

    Many people today are running here and there in search of freedom, deliverance and happiness. However, God has place in our hand the responsibility of delivering ourselves from the snare of the devil“Give not sleep to thine eyes, nor slumber to thine eyelids.Deliver thyself as a roe from the hand of the hunter, and as a bird from the hand of the fowler” (Proverb 6: 4-5).
  • The wisdom of repentance II

    David talks about the obvious advantages that are available to a person after he has confessed his sins.1. Supernatural freedom from guilt and condemnation.« I acknowledged my sin to You, and my iniquity I have not hidden. I said, „I will confess my transgression to the Lord,” and You forgave the iniquity of my sin» (Psalm 32:5). Right after we confess our sins God takes away from us the burden of guilt. When our own hearts condemn us, when we experience the guilt caused by our sins, it is extremely hard to boldly go before Godi n prayer. Feelings of guilt destroy our confidence. So, in order for us to get rid of the guilt we need to repent of our sins.
