Christian author, evangelist and soldier in the UPDF, Ivan Aggrey Kajuba has urged Church ministers not to limit God’s work to the pulpit saying “it goes far beyond.”
“In Uganda, I have seen churches split as a result of struggle to preach on the pulpit, yet there are many other ministries we can do,”
“We have seen God using His servants to glorify Him at their work place. For example, Joseph in Egypt ministered through his work and as a result his ministry sustained his family for 400 years,”
Ivan Aggrey Kajuba says it is sad when Christians think that careers are a worldly thing.
“Work is a godly ministry as long as it is done for the glory of God. Actually, we spend more time at our work places than any other place,”
“In these last days, God is raising Daniels and Josephs at the workplace. Consider your job, your business and your home as your duty station where God has deployed you,” he says. “There are different ministries but one body.”
According to Aggrey, often times, believers do not remember that each one has a unique place and role in the Church of Christ.
“Just like earthly soldiers are mandated by the earthly constitution, a believer is empowered by the heavenly constitution – which is the word of God. As long as we are living within our ‘constitutional’ rights and performing our ‘constitutional duties,’ we have support form the heavenly government to destroy and uproot the enemy’s camp,”
These remarks are contained in Aggrey’s book on spiritual warfare principles drawn from his experience as a soldier in the Ugandan army labeled ‘The frontline.’
Ivan Aggrey Kajuba pursued a Diploma in Bible Ministry. Today, he is a Christian conference speaker and preacher who ministers in the Ugandan Military Fellowship as well as to many congregations, both in Uganda and abroad.
