The Word of God works in us according to the level of our understanding

ByPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 2 minutes
Greetings to you, brothers and sisters! One of the keys for our advancement is the Word of God and our correct attitude towards it. I am very glad that I can share the Word from the Lord every day. Nevertheless, this Word will benefit and produce fruit only in the life of those who will dissolve this Word in faith and will put effort to comprehend and use this Word in their lives. (Hebrews 4:2)Remember: The Word of God works in us according to the level of our understanding. In the parable of the sower, it is said that they who brought forth the fruit were the ones who heard the word and understood it. Some brought fruit thirty-, sixty-, and hundredfold, according to their understanding. 
«But he that received seed into the good ground is he that heareth the word, and understandeth it; which also beareth fruit, and bringeth forth, some an hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty..» (Мatth. 13: 23).
 We have been given the ability to know the secrets of the Heavenly Kingdom, but if we do not put effort, we will lose what we already know. 
«And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables? He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given. For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath..» (Мatth. 13:10-12).
God will lift us up through His Word and godly instructions (Exodus 2:1-5); let us walk in the light of His revelations! We will see each other on the top! Pastor Rufus Ajiboye

  • 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.

  • How do we know if we have the fear of God in our lives?

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 4 minutes
    The first way to know this is to understand that the fear of God expresses itself in a hatred of evil.“To fear the Lord is to hate evil; I hate pride and arrogance, evil behavior and perverse speech” (Prov. 8:13) (see also Prov. 3:7; 14:16; 16:6; 23:17; Job. 1:1,8; ; II Cor. 7:1). This is just the opposite of the wicked (Eccl. 8:13—”Yet because the wicked do not fear God, it will not go well with them, and their days will not lengthen like a shadow”). (see also Prov. 1:29; Ps. 36:1-4. ).

  • The lordship of Jesus Christ V

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 4 minutes
    «All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations…» (Mathew, 28:18-19).Jesus told us to walk through this life, being armed with the understanding that all God’s authority is behind us. The will of God for us contains prosperity, health, salvation (both for us personally and for our families), peace and harmony; the will of God is for all people to come to salvation and knowledge of truth. But too often we see discrepancies in many areas of our life. Those areas where the will of God is not fulfilled are actually ruled by the devil; somehow we have given him a place and control over these areas.

  • How can we experience God in our life?

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 6 minutes
    Studying the Bible we see God doing great feats through many people. He was able to realise His intentions using those people just due to their revelation and understanding of God´s key principles. While living in the different times, educated on a different level, belonged to the different cultures all Bible heroes basically have something in common. The secret of the success and feats they had is obvious – they knew God and interacted with Him. They experienced God´s power and His mercy in their lives. How did they succeeded? It became possible because they dedicated themselves to God. That´s exactly what God is inviting us to do.
