The implanted Word of God changes an individual: his reactions, emotions, behaviour III

ByPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 5 minutes
I thank God for every one of you, readers of “Daily Word for Spiritual Edification”!God has a great destiny for every of His children!
«For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope»(Jeremiah, 29:11)
I just want to tell you one important thing today; this might apply to just one, two or three people, but it is worth mentioning: if you have been filling your heart with God’s Word for a long time and have been guarding your heart, but you do not yet see the results or fruit, it means God is putting in you a very deep and solid foundation, because He is going to raise a strong and important structure.If you have been planting God’s Word into your heart and doing the Word, but have not seen any changes for a long time, it means God wants to do something great through you. And it is not flattery; it is the truth! Study the Word and you will see it to be true. Jesus ministered 3 and half years on this earth, but it took him 30 years to prepare. During the 3.5 years of Jesus ministry, He transformed the world; His fame quickly spread about, where as only few people knew Him or talked about Him during the years He was going through the most serious preparation work and the building of an inner foundation. Because Jesus did not drift away from the preparation and foundational work He was able to accomplish in a short time what will last for eternity. So we can say that the condition of your heart determines your destiny.Tell God: «I know that my destiny depends on You.Nothing and nobody and can change or stop my destiny if I keep guarding my heart. Help me, Lord, to focus my attention on the things that are important. Help me, Lord, to guard my heart from malice, filthiness, fear and insecurity. Help me, Lord, in Jesus name! I do not just want to know Your Word in my mind only; I want Your Word to be planted inside of me, because only the implanted Word can save my soul. Thank you, Lord, for the deep work You have been doing inside of me. Help me to appreciate it. Even if no special things happen on the outside, help me, Lord, to believe that soon enough I will see the necessary changes. I thank You and praise You, Jesus, that no man can stop me from rising up. I thank you, Lord, that no circumstances can stop my advancement. My destiny is from the Lord, and this destiny is stronger than any hindrances!»Think of your life and of all the things that are happening in it. Consider the things that disappoint you today and cause you to cry and suffer; possibly, you are keeping them a secret from the people in your life. You should know that all of this can change. It will change! It depends on the condition of your heart. Your part is to fill your heart – bit by bit – every day. Feed on the Word, ponder upon it, hold on to His promises, and proclaim it without ceasing. Even if you do not see any changes yet, even if it seems that you are losing the small things you had gained, do not give up! Hold on to the Word of God, keep the Word in your heart and the fountains of life will start flowing from you! You will have joy in every situation whether it is lack or stagnation. Satan often whispers in your ear that you weren’t born at the right time, in the right family or country. God tells you that it is all a lie! God determined the day and place of your birth. God decided to give you life! God has a wonderful plan for you and this plan will come to pass! The main thing is that you need to cooperate with God. The condition of your heart is the KEY thing! Guard your heart!«God, I thank You and praise You! Thank You for the Word You sent to see Your plans come true in the life of everyone that has accepted Your plan. I thank You, Father, for strengthening the hearts of Your people! I thank you for changing those circumstances in their lives that need to be changed! We thank You, Lord, for Your Word that is established in heaven. When this Word finds its place in our hearts, You too find Your place there. You dwell in the heart of those who tremble or stand in awe before Your Word, and You show Yourself mighty in their lives. I thank You, Lord, for every person who has open his heart for Your Word. In the name of Jesus Christ!»I wish you abundant blessings on this day!Pastor Rufus Ajiboye

  • What are you doing with your promotion?

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 3 minutes
    Promotion is connected to the issue of wealth, and we are not talking just about money. Riches are more than money. Health, joy, good relationships, peace, rest, and love – those too are riches. Many people have lots of money, but they lack true riches. God tells us today not to be haughty and not trust in material things; we need to trust God alone. We should be generous and sociable. When problems come, God is the only One Who can help us. Trust God and do good works. By doing this, you will draw God’s attention and earn God’s promotion.

  • Why do people run away from being accountable?

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 3 minutes
    1. Fear of rejection. Many people are afraid of others rejecting or despising them when they find out all the truth. Biblical accountability is fulfilment of the law of Christ which tells us to express our care for the others in the spirit of humility: «Brethren, if a man is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, considering yourself lest you also be tempted. Bear one another’s burdens, and so fulfil the law of Christ» (Galatians, 6:1-2).

  • God’s Word being the best means of cleansing for a human heart

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 4 minutes
    God cleanses me through His Word, so I have to be absorbed in it daily. It might seem to you that you are not getting anything out of it, but it is not so. When we read the Word, we receive deep cleansing, just like people get clean when they bathe. It must be done as often as possible so we would stink spiritually. If you start to notice that you are getting quick-tempered, it means you need to wash it off. If you notice your heart closing up, it means you are not reading the Word and missing the cleansing. If you notice things that do not comply with Christian standards, for example, picking a quarrel, it is a sign of not being in the Word enough.

  • Put to death therefore your members which are on the earth

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 4 minutes
    “Put to death your body”- means letting the resurrected life that dwells in you spring its roots. By feeding our old sinful nature we strengthen it and as a result of this the sinful nature prevails the resurrected life inside us. In opposite, when thinking about things that are above ans seeking those things we enable ourselves to celebrate a victory over sin and the old nature.Quite often, when somebody hears that he has to put his body to death he says to himself: “I can´t do it!” This is the voice of your old nature. Though, let me share the good news with you – the Bible says, when Christ reveals Himself so will you in His glory, and your new life will be transformed into abundant life. If we have fellowship with God, seek things that are above and reason about Him, then Christ will definitely reveal Himself in our life.

  • Jesus got to know God´s will and fulfilled His mission

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 4 minutes
    For the fact that Jesus got to know God´s will and fulfilled His mission we can enter the presence of God, receive forgiveness of our sins and get answers to our prayers today. It´s important to notice that fate of many people depends on do we or do we not fulfil our mission and God´s will in our lives. In case we fail to accomplish the mission, some people will not enter their fate or the fulfilment of their mission will experience a delay. That´s why Jesus treated God´s will and its fulfilment in the most serious way. The job of His Father who sent Him was the highest priority in Jesus life.

  • Habit is a compilation of knowledge, skills and willingness II

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 3 minutes
    The Bible says, that faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. What shall I do when I feel my prayer doesn´t work well. Shall I read a book about upsurge and healing, or listen to a sermon about liberation from curse, maybe I should blame devil and demons for all failures of my praying life. It´s them who set obstacles for me. Quite often people blame devil for all failures in their life. When I listen to the sermons constantly focusing on satan and demons I ask myself, whom are we preaching and whom are we glorifying? Read gospels to see what Jesus said to the demon. He said: “leave him” then continued his way. It´s not a satan fault that you don´t practise praying.
