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

  • Everything that is hidden will unavoidably be brought into the light

    «For God will bring every work into judgment, including every secret thing, whether good or evil» (Ecclesiastes, 12:14). Solomon said the same thing Jesus said: God will bring into judgment our every work and especially all the hidden works: sins, wrongdoings that we have tried to keep in secret. God will openly bring our every deed into the light of His judgment. It means that all our sins will follow us wherever we go. The only way we can avoid the consequences of our sins and wrongdoings – is to repent before God brings them into the judgment. Repentance opens to us the door of mercy and grace from the Lord. It brings into our life new opportunities from the Lord. For this reason the only right lifestyle and the only correct decision is to repent of our wrongdoings so that God won’t have to judge us.

    Was the favour of God accidental in Mordecai’s life? No way! Favour is released and operates according to particular laws. One of these laws is the law of sowing and reaping. If you will be consistent in sowing favour and mercy into the lives of other people you will be sure of favours coming into your life at the very moment you need it the most.
  • God’s discipline II

    1. Use the spiritual weapons God has given you: «Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armour of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armour of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God» (Ephesians, 6:10-17).
  • The philosophy of change

    It is quite often that we oppose changes; we resist any changes because we are creatures of habit. If something is new and unusual for us, we don’t like it. Is that the truth? Whatever is unusual to us scares us. We love the comforts of life and if something upsets our comfortable position, we start to fight it with all of our strength.Nevertheless God calls every person to go through changes.
  • Jesus was constantly seeking the God´s will for His life

    Reading the Bible we see how Jesus was growing and being filled with wisdom, and the grace of God was upon him. Jesus was constantly seeking the God´s will for His life, in order to set a good example for us. If Jesus had got to know God´s will using His divine nature instead, He wouldn´t have set a role model to us nor we wouldn´t be able to follow his steps today. Jesus stayed longer in the Temple after the feast of Passover in Jerusalem while other people had already left for home (see Luke 2:41-51). What was Jesus doing there and why did He stay longer in the Temple? He stayed there to listen to the scribes and to question them. That´s one of His secrets where His wisdom came from. Jesus studied the Scriptures. He attended the Temple and asked questions, prayed and leaned closer to God, His Father.
