Your Multi-Dimensional Nature! by Pastor Faith Oyedepo

Author: Pastor Faith Oyedepo

Dear Reader,

I count it a great privilege to bring God’s Word your way in this wonderful column. This month, I will focus on the women, as they will be exposed to their multi-dimensional nature.

It is important for women to recognize that life is a privilege and it is nothing other than being an influence on your environment because you live only once.  Therefore, while you are on earth, every opportunity to add something positive to everyone must never be allowed to slip by, because you are the light of the world.

God’s Word says: Ye are the light of the world.  A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid (Matthew 5:14).  One of the major assignments of light is to influence its environment.  See each day as another opportunity to add something extra to your world.

To start with, what does the word “multi-dimensional” mean?  It means to have many different features.  Isn’t that wonderful?  As a woman, you are opportune to have diverse features, to make your life a plus to your generation and the world at large.

The multi-dimensional nature of a woman can be seen from four different perspectives as a woman, a wife, a mother, and a home maker.

As a woman, it begins with the understanding of acknowledging God as your Creator.  At salvation, Jesus becomes your Saviour, and as you grow in Him, He becomes your Lord indeed.

As a wife, the full acknowledgement is to your husband, while as a mother, to your biological and spiritual children.  As a home maker, your assignment goes beyond an ordinary title, but to make your home a delightful and conducive place; you’re your family.

Each of these four multi-dimensional nature of a woman will be discussed one after the other in the following weeks respectively.

The multi-dimensional nature of a woman majors on being a light.  The primary purpose of light is to shine, to stand out, and to be bright.  God’s Word says: Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee (Isaiah 60:1).

Therefore, no matter the reason for not shining, you are simply disobeying God, and when you disobey His commandments you attract a penalty.  Your multi-dimensional nature is to affect the destinies of others.

Imagine life as a bead necklace, and imagine yourself as one of the beads linked up with others.  Every time you shift position, you are affecting the destinies of others!  Life is a link; your destiny is tied to that of other people.  So, when you refuse to shine, you are affecting the destinies of other people negatively.

According to Mike Murdock, he said, “You will be remembered either for the problems you solve or the one you create.”  That is, the choice is yours; either to solve problems or create them.  I pray that you will not be a problem creator, but a problem solver!

Ask yourself, “Am I shifting position and causing problems in the body of Christ or am I standing in my place, ensuring that I reflect the glory of God Almighty?” You will not disappoint destiny!

If you are not born again, you are still in absolute darkness; therefore, you cannot shine as the light you ought to be.  You need to surrender your life to Christ because it is your salvation that makes for shining. You get saved by confessing your sins and accepting Jesus as your Lord and Saviour. If you are ready for this new birth experience, please say this prayer: “Dear Lord Jesus Christ, I come to You today.  I am a sinner. Forgive me of my sins and cleanse me with Your Blood. Deliver me from sin and satan to serve the living God.  I accept You as my Lord and Saviour. Make me a child of God today. Thank You for accepting me into Your Kingdom.”

If you prayed this simple prayer, you are now a child of God. He loves you and will never leave you. Read your Bible daily, obey God’s Word and seek Christian fellowship (John 14:21).

Congratulations! You are now born again! All-round rest and peace are guaranteed you, in Jesus’ Name. Call or write, and share your testimonies with me through contact@faithoyedepo.org; OR 07026385437 and 08141320204.
