When you live in obedience to His Word, God protects you from sorrows and tragedies that fill this world nowadays

 Good morning, dear friends! I am glad that once again I can share the Word of the Lord with you! I would like us to focus on the life of Noah again today.
„Now the flood was on the earth forty days. The waters increased and lifted up the ark, and it rose high above the earth. The waters prevailed and greatly increased on the earth, and the ark moved about on the surface of the waters.” (Genesis 7:17-18).
Today I would like to point out a very important truth: if you are obedient to God in your actions and in your life in general, then the very same thing that destroys others will lift you up. In the Scripture above we can see that the same waters, which destroyed the world by flooding it, raised Noah’s ark that he had built according to the Word of God. The very same waters destroyed some people and lifted up somebody else – Noah. To the faithful Noah, flood waters brought salvation. This is the fulfillment of God’s promise:
„A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it shall not come near you.” (Psalm 91:7).
God wants to show you today that it is extremely important to build your life on the Word of the Lord. When you live in obedience to His Word, God protects you from sorrows and tragedies that fill this world nowadays. May God help us to live a life that is pleasing to Him!Be blessed! May the peace of God be with you! Pastor Rufus Ajiboye

    Nowadays many people give up as soon as something does not go like they expected or some problems start to choke them. I will tell you honestly that it is not hard to go through different problems with dignity, – you must learn it. It does not happen automatically; you must prepare yourself for it. If we won’t prepare ourselves ahead of time, then at difficult times we will fail and give up. Lack of discipline and preparation will create instability in our lives and will hinder our progress.

  • Why it is necessary for us to make praise as a way of life

    AutorsPastor Rufus Ajiboye Reading Time: 4 minutes
    Praise as a demonstration of our faith in God. In Roman 4: 20 we are told that Abraham He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God. One of the ways we can both demonstrate and build a strong faith in our lives is to learn to give glory. One way we can give glory to God is to believe Him, praise Him and holding unto His word despite the negative circumstances of life. Only those who believe God is in control of their lives and their situations can live such a life. But the truth is that we cannot enjoy the life of God until we learn to give glory to Him by demonstrating our faith in Him through praise on a daily basis.

  • God’s purpose for the earth and the role of people in it

    It says in the Bible that God rules and reigns over everything — in heaven and in earth. When we read Genesis, we see that God created men and also we read about God’s intentions for men. God created us to rule and reign on earth as God’s ambassadors. So God’s original plan was for people to be a ruler and care-taker for God. We can read about that in Genesis (1:26-28).
