Our life is a product of what we see II

ByPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 3 minutes
Peace to you, dear friends! I salute you on the pages of our „Daily Word for Spiritual Edification»!We have been talking about the fact that we can plan together with God and partner with Him to construct a great future. We established also that great future does not happen automatically.We are believers, but that does not mean that we do not have to think about the future. We should not be careless about our future even though we believe that our future is in the hand of God. God has given us a mind and He wants us to move forward and create a wonderful future for ourselves. A person who does not care about his future usually turns to be a failure. It is very important to plan for the future and to envision it.
«Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us…»(Ephesians, 3:20)
Yesterday we discussed the idea that God first places some images of what He wants us to become in our minds and thoughts. That means we first need to accept God’s plan and ponder upon it, or we will never have it. And in order to start pondering upon it we need to see this plan in our minds. What we cannot see we cannot have. God wants us to stop complaining about our life and to get serious about creating a new, successful future. The Bible says that
 „God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind” (2 Timothy, 1:7).
God has not given us the spirit of fear, but of power, of love and of a sound mind. The phrase ‘sound mind’ means ‘healthy mind’. God wants us to use our minds and purposefully move towards our wonderful future. If you have no understanding and no ideas of what your tomorrow is going to be like or if you really do not care about it or you lack the vision for it, it is all wrong, because God Himself does not want you to live like that. Many people have different excuses in this area, saying, „God alone knows my future; so why should I think about it?” Others say, „Whatever will be will be; there is nothing I can do about it”.   It is all a lie, and it is a wrong, erroneous thinking. God is calling us to become partners with Him so that together you can design a wonderful future. God cannot do it without us, and we cannot do it without Him. If we will cooperate with God, ponder upon the things He thinks and speaks of us and our future and move towards that future, – we will start seeing real changes in our lives. Till tomorrow! God bless you! Pastor Rufus Ajiboye

    There are a wisdom of this world and God´s wisdom. God´s wisdom differs from the wisdom of this world the way that it´s hidden until the God Himself reveals it to the people. As for the wisdom of this world, that´s a human wisdom gained using five methods of perception, or sense: hearing, sight, touch, smell, and taste, which are the natural channels used to gain a knowledge.Differently from God´s wisdom that exists for our glory, the wisdom of a man once passes away. The Bible says, that «the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men», even more His wisdom is. God´s wisdom is much higher than the wisdom of a man.

    We concluded that we are hands, feet, mouth and heart of our God. If we refuse to collaborate with God, He will not be able to act or fulfil His plan in our cities and our countries. We stopped at what do we have to do in order to witness spiritual revival filling our cities? To make it happen we must become obedient disciples of Jesus Christ. God uses this kind of people to fulfil His prophesies and restore His will on Earth.Obedient disciple is one who moves and works for God, not sitting and doing nothing, so God can move through such person.

  • Suffering as a method of discipline

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 5 minutes
    One of the reasons God allows suffering in the lives of His children is that He desires to draw our attention to Himself, to correct and discipline us. We know that God mostly corrects us by His Word: «All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work» (2 Timothy, 3:16-17).
