Service in God’s house is never in vain when it is done with sincerity and commitment.
This was the emphasis of the Generational Prophet and Senior Pastor of Grace Nation Global, Dr Chris Okafor, during his teaching on “Understanding the Act of Discipleship (Part 3).”
He described new converts as “spiritual infants” who require guidance, nurturing, and a solid foundation in Christian living.
According to him, it is the responsibility of the Church to ensure that believers are properly established as disciplined followers of Christ.
*Benefits of Discipleship*
Dr Okafor outlined several advantages of true discipleship, stressing that God’s rewards are reserved for those who seek Him diligently:
Partnership with God: Discipleship creates alignment with God’s purposes, enabling believers to participate in His agenda.
Blessings of Obedience: A life of obedience opens the door to divine favour and direction.
Assurance of Answered Prayers: Genuine discipleship strengthens one’s relationship with God, leading to consistent spiritual results.
Commitment to Soul Winning: True disciples are actively involved in expanding the Kingdom by reaching others.
Eternal Perspective: It prepares believers for eternal life and spiritual fulfillment beyond this world.
Spiritual Fruitfulness: A disciplined Christian life produces visible growth and impact.
Kingdom Expansion: Disciples contribute meaningfully to the advancement of God’s work on earth.
Eternal Rewards: Faithful service attracts lasting spiritual rewards.
