Life and Ministry
Sharing with Pastor Dapo Adeniyi
Text:Acts 18, 7-11
Two lessons we can
learn about the hazardous waters of ministry:
There will always be those who hate God out there in the
field that will never receive the word of God.
They are also in the church (our ministries are often run in
ways that make room and make the atmosphere comfortable for such).
We often tie them down with positions and other incentives.
People whose hearts are not open to the word of God.
They cannot be blessed by God’s word.
They neither honour nor treasure the word of God.
NB: Those who publish the word and stand with God receive
all the hatred that evil men have for God.
Also Note: The word must be published despite those who hate
God’s word and work against Him.
We must stand our ground.That is what the Father expects
from us.
The second lesson has
to do with the blessing of making utterances in the word of God see Verse 9-10
The devil wants the righteous to hold his peace.
We can speak against the mountains.
We can speak to part the rivers.
We can decree a thing and it shall stand.
But only if we are
filled with God’s word.
God has men in the
place His work is planted.
As we continue
faithfully, they will manifest.
Many of such are
waiting for our words of preaching to enter the kingdom of God,
Therefore we must not hold our peace.
