The truth shall make free

ByPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 2 minutes

Good day friends, thank you for taking few minutes to feed your spirit through our daily word for spiritual strength.
It is my desire that you will love the word of God more and more and apply it to your life.

 

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).

Jesus said you shall know the truth and the truth shall make free (John 8:32).

 

It is the truth you apply to your life that guarantee your freedom.

 

There is no amount of prayers by others that will help you in your pursuit of freedom and happiness if you neglect biblical principle of walking in freedom.

 

God’s instruction for you today is to:

  • Deliver yourself through genuine repentance (Proverb5: 22; 2Timothy2: 24-26; James 5: 16; Proverb 28: 13);
  • Deliver yourself through forgiveness (Mathew 6: 15; 5:25-26; 18: 34);
  • Deliver yourself through obedience to the truth (2 Corinthian 10:3-6;Isaiah 63: 10);
  • Deliver yourself through prayer and fasting (James 5: 13,16; Hebrew 4: 16; Mathew 17: 14-21);
  • Deliver yourself through worship and thanksgiving (2 Chronicle 20; Acts 16; Jonah).

Remember, prayer doesn’t work when you neglect biblical principles, so in your search for freedom and happiness, allow the word of God to guide and direct your life.

 

Have a wonderful day!
Pastor Rufus Ajiboye.

  • When you do not see a way out and when everything looks hopeless and bleak, – worship God!

    “Then she came and worshipped Him, saying, “Lord, help me!» (Mathew, 15:25). Many people have a hard time even saying the words „help me”. Many people have a hard time acknowledging that they actually need help. They do not want to admit they are helpless in certain situations and call out for help. Help does not come to those that do not ask for it. Only a humble, broken person is able to ask for help. This woman had a broken heart; for this reason she was able to worship Jesus and ask Him for help. May our hearts be humble before God, so that we can worship God and ask for His help. When you need help, you must humble your heart before God.

  • 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.

    Going through the most difficult ordeal in His life, when Jesus heart was internally struggling whether to accept or to reject God´s will, He proved with His own example that we have to always choose God´s will even if it requires us to go through pain and sufferings. «My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass away from me; nevertheless, not what I desire, but what you desire.» (Matthew 26:39). « … Father, if you are willing, remove this cup from me. Nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done.» (Luke 22:42)

  • We are the new creation in Christ Jesus, made for good deeds the Lord has determined for us II

    «For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, that no one would boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared before that we would walk in them.» (Ephesians 2:8-10). Here we can see that person is not made righteous by his deeds. God never declares somebody righteous by his many good works. Vice verse, God makes righteous those who accept His gift by faith, namely Christ Jesus. A person becomes good in God´s eyes by faith when he believes in good works God has done in Christ.

    Let’s look at the steps that Solomon took in order to find the meaning of life. We will see what conclusions Solomon came to. The first thing Solomon turned to was acquiring of wisdom and knowledge. «I communed with my heart, saying, „Look, I have attained greatness, and have gained more wisdom than all who were before me in Jerusalem. My heart has understood great wisdom and knowledge.” And I set my heart to know wisdom and to know madness and folly. I perceived that this also is grasping for the wind. For in much wisdom is much grief, and he who increases knowledge increases sorrow» (Ecclesiastes, 1:16-18).
