"You will only be remembered for your contributions and the value you created. Wake up now and start your journey to greatness by adding value to people. There is no small assignment, only be faithful," the Minister in Charge of Christ Apostolic Church, Sure Foundation Chapel, Lagos, Pastor M. Olu Aina has said.
Pastor Aina stated this while ministering on the topic "A man On A Mission" at the 50th Birthday Ceremony of the Superintendent of Yaba Districts' Coordinating Council (DCC), Lagos.
He said a man on a mission is on earth for God's purpose of dominion and rulership and he or she is not here by mistake.
"Jesus said for this purpose I was born. Do you know why you are here or you are already carried away with the funfair of this temporary place? Who is he that is yet to find his purpose here? Don't leave this house until you have found the reason for your existence. Those who compare themselves with themselves are not wise, says the Bible. Are you really doing what you have been called to do or you are only keeping company with people who have discovered their own path to go to where you are not sent. You are not here to compete but to complement the efforts of other men to fulfil GOD'S PURPOSE on the earth. You are distinct, unique and special. Trying to be another person is to frustrate your destiny and truncate the plan of God in your life," he said.
Pastor Aina said the world is full of talented men and women without mission and purpose.
