How will you know if you are taking the right way? Our Lord’s way? Crossroads in life comes more than a few times and making decisions in our lives is the hardest part. I should know because age usually counts when you try to evaluate how many crossroads you have taken. But what is important is not how many crossroads you faced but how did you face it. Surely it wasn't easy and certainly you did not always choose the best choice. Again, is it about the "BEST CHOICE?" The easy way? Not actually, what matters is if we choose Gods' way! It wouldn't be so hard if we only knew the best formula; which is taking the way God is offering. We might ask: "So, how to know Gods' way? If we just open our ears to listen and shut our mouth it will be easier to know. If we are not that stubborn to prefer our own way we might have seen clearly which way to take. If we just don’t assume that we are all knowing we might have heard clearly what God is trying to say. If we are not so impatient to see the result, to see the answers in our prayers we might have seen His grace in our life. I have read a story from Max Lucado’s book that tell’s about this that i want to share with you guys: I always remember how it all started though the least I know God already starter long time ago. Before I completely surrender to God I actually have an exciting beginning like everyone else. This photo is so cute I can't help but post. When I'm looking at those feet and slippers keychains with our names I can't help but imagine all of us in the life group walking together for the kingdom of God, Any where and every where. Today God I pray for everyone You have called in Your Name, to serve and honor you, that we will always walk and even run for your glory. That our feet will always be willing to take extra steps just to bring the good news to every one we can reach. I pray that we will always be courageous to boldly make a step even we are not sure what lies head (FAITH!!!). Thank You for everything Lord! In Jesus Name I pray! Anen! So, Im wearing my annointing oil today! I feel better! Thank You Lord For everything! Whatever happens I will choose to praise and worship You! Use me in every extent that I can serve for Your Name and Annoint me for every task and mission you will give me. I pray for my health Lord and my family as well. Thank You Lord! I pray healing for everyone who is sick right now! In Jesus Name! Amen! Mark 6:13 - And they cast out many devils, and anointed with oil many that were sick, and healed [them]. Are you running after time? Why? Is it because your already 30 and still haven't settle down? Is it because most of your friends are already married and you and left with your gay friends are the only ones left unmarried? What can be worst than that? I tell you what. • Wanting to be in a relationship even your partner don't respect you just to say you got someone beside you is far worst. • Staying in a relationship even you are hurting because you think nobody else will want you is a devils lie. • Dreaming of someone to be you husband or wife while he/she can't even be a responsible boyfriend or girlfriend, that is foolishness. • Choose to be in a relationship with a man and woman rather than be in a relationship with God or abandoning your covenant with God just to run after your happy ever after is more likely a life in hell while on earth. It will not be like how you see in movies. God is in control. He loves us that much that He will surely wants us to be with someone who will love Him and love us next. Please don't be trap in an idea that you will grow old alone and choose to be imprisoned with someone who doesn't value Gods' value. Be faithful on your call God will always prepare someone that can help and support you out that together you will built the church of the Lord. That is glory! That is heaven! Wait for that moment. Do not ever force for anything to happen. It is like forcing a pregnant mom to labor while its not yet due date, you will surely suffer together with the outcome. True love does exist. Love greater than all. It is God's love and there is FOREVER with God. John 3:16 "For God so LOVED the World that He gave His only begotten Son that who so ever believes in Him will not PERISH and will have EVERLASTING LIFE." That is a promise of love for eternity! Hold on to that. #mayforever I heard about this son who wrote a letter to his dad. It goes something like this: Dear Dad, It is with great regret and sorrow that I’m writing you. I had to elope with my new girlfriend, because I wanted to avoid a scene with Mom and you. I’ve been finding real passion with Stacy, and she is so nice. However, I knew you would not approve of her because of her piercings, tattoos, and tight motorcycle clothes. Also, she is so much older than me. But it’s not only the passion, Dad. She’s pregnant. Stacy said that we will be very happy. She owns a trailer in the woods and has a stack of firewood for the whole winter. We share a dream of having many more children. Stacy has opened my eyes to the fact that marijuana doesn’t really hurt anyone. We’ll be growing it for ourselves and trading it with other people in the commune for all the cocaine and ecstasy we want. In the meantime, we’ll pray that science will find a cure for AIDS, so Stacy can get better. She sure deserves it! Don’t worry, Dad. I’m 15, and I know how to take care of myself. Someday, I’m sure we’ll be back to visit, so you can get to know your many grandchildren. Love, Joshua P.S. Dad, none of the above is true. I’m over at Jason’s house. I just wanted to remind you that there are worse things in life than the school report that’s on the kitchen table. Call when it’s safe for me to come home!
1 John 1:9 "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness." Well, I guess with all the spiritual warfare that we can all go through... Once we acknowledge God in the midst of the people despite of all circumstances He will honor that. Matthew 10:32 "Whoever acknowledges me before others, I will also acknowledge before my Father in heaven. Never ever give up on sharing the Gospel, you will never know how far it will go. Truly, our labor is never put in vain (1 corinthians 15:58). Praise God! This is the fruit of street evangelism! Prayer and Fasting. Thank You Lord! Three weeks of street evagelism, we stopped this week and decided to finally go for regular Lg, we became still and pray for three days and rest upon the Lord. With people or none we will push and God surprised as in the most unexpected ways... Many thanks to my armor bearers!!! God is wellpleased with all of us. I can hear Him from heaven saying: "Well done good and faithful servant!" Today was another day of God's glory in my life. The enemy can't do anything against my God. Isn't it amazing when we start our day like normal and suddenly there will be a shift to make it extraordinary. 😊 I started my day like normal, went to the bust stop. Waited, chat with a friend who seems to be upset of riding on a wrong bus and possibility of getting late while she actually woke up very early. I tried to encourage her to see a brighter side from it. When I get to the site i just waited for the lorry to pack all my things to be transferred to the new site and there you go, the mark of my new beginning to a new project then on the way, boommmmm.... While sitting in the lorry on the way I got a call from our Hr in the headquaters, telling me they haven't received my medical report for my pass renewal and my pass is about to expire today and if they don't apply me today i will get revoked. That very moment i was a bit blanked of what is happening, i was like, say what? I took the medical so early, way back the 13th of May. So in short they asked me to call the medical clinic and asked for it. My form says they need to get back the result by before 18th of May and they just send it out like yesterday and it will take three days before it can be delivered. We don't have another day, at the end i asked my boss that i will take off after transfer, i go down myself to get the results for a copy since they can't email nor fax it for confidentiality. When I got it, I was like, what? They got the result that same day of my medical, what took them so long? So, I figured there is just supernatural thing happening here. I went straight to our headquarters and hand it over myself. Praise God! The enemy can never stand against my Jesus. I will be staying for another two years! At the middle of the afternoon i went straight home, eat and took a nap! Praise God! I wasn't getting enough sleep for the past few days and this is just a bonus from God. I woke up late afternoon and I asked Jen, one of my housemate if she wants to watch a movie and we watched "SOUL SURFER." My all time favorite. I cried like its the first time I watched it. Every scene brought me to tears. This movie was the first of all the christian movies I have watched and it is still impacting my view of life. "I don't need easy, I just need possible." -Bethany Matthew 19:26 "Jesus said: with Men this is impossible but WITH GOD ALL THESE THINGS ARE POSSIBLE." My God is the God of impossibilities! I am sure of that. How about you? My day is not yet over. I know tonight in my lifegroup God will even more surprise me. Life is always exciting with God. Are you looking forward on what God will do for you? Well, if not I strongly believe you should. 😉 Many times I heard that when the enemy tried to disturb you a lot you are actually doing great things for the Kingdom of God and the beast is so eager to try its best to distract you. I have read in some of my books also about how the enemy will work and one in particular is the latest one i have read where in the devil came into his room and sat on the foot of his bed and laughed at him saying: "here you are edwards, in Panama preaching that Jesus Christ is the same today as in yesterday and that He is the Healer. Look at yourself." Because he and his whole family was sick because of malaria from a mission trip." The missionary evangelist raised up in bed and said, "old devil, in Jesus Name, I am going to knock you for a loop!" Then edward immediately got healed from malaria, and God blessed him in the healing ministry. Why am I sharing this? Well, because of what happened last night. This past few days i kept on having bad dreams where I can't remember exactly when I woke up, part of it yes but I cannot connect the puzzle. Everytime I woke up my phone is not playing the worship songs I usually turn on before sleeping because for most people that know me they knew that one habit I can not take apart from me is playing songs when sleeping because my brain can't shut down on its own and I am very sensitive so my sleep is very shallow one. I need to hear the songs playing when I wake up so I can easily go back to sleep. So this past few this I could not figure out why everytime I wake up almost same timing my phone is nothing and it's not even in the application it's totally not. So what I will do is raised up and turn on the apps again. I notice it kept on happening so I shift my sleeping position back to the original. My head near in the extension so I can reached to my phone easily when it's charging. Last night was no difference exept I was awake when it happened. Same thing I was having a bad dream about Snakes. Then I woke up. I cannot remember what exactly the dream is about all i know is there is a snake. I notice my phone is not playing the worship song again and checked it out near my pillow and the apps exit again. It was 3:30am. So i played the song again. Repeat one song only "10,000 reasons" so the music started singing Blessed the Lord oh my soul, and so on. I am about to sleep and turn, facing the wall and the song stopped. I opened my eyes. I tried to listen in the silence for a moment, roll back again reached for my phone and it's in the home screen again. So I played the same music again. Close my eyes. After few lines it stopped again. This time I am beginning to feel some chills I prayed in tongues and asked In Jesus Name to send His angels. I reached out for my phone again. Turned on its torch, changed the song to "the more i seek you". Sing with it, pray in tongues, cast it away in Jesus Name and tried to go back to sleep. I manage to go back to sleep by then. Really, witnessing it like that last night was not a very nice thing to experience but my Jesus is powerful than anything else. To be sure I tried to play the song just now before I write down this experience and it went ok. I guess the devil just want to distract me and disturb me from my sleep. It will somehow weaken me that's why I'm having migraine since last sunday. Well, if that is what it want. I am more than willing to stand and put a fight with my God. Here we go. It's my last day in this project. Three years in the making and now I need to move and go to another one. I saw this project started bare flat from the ground. Now it's completely done. I am so overjoyed. Praise God for the guidance! Thank You Lord for the provision and the strength. Another adjustment but new experience. Looking forward on what you will do for me in the new place Lord. Your will be done always! 😊😊😊 Ecclesiastes 3:1 For everything there is a season and a time for every purpose under the heaven. One thing I will never forget in the movie: "The Encounter" is when Jesus said: "the disadvantage of being God is that I know! I know all. I have tried to reached out in many ways but i know where he is going and I just can't do anything - FREEWILL" Have you been in a situation when people you loved seems to be on the other side? When you know and your spirit already begins to rebuke them but you still care for them and you've tried your best to show them and tell them the right thing to do but it seems to be not working at all and you get to be disappointed and question, how come they can't hear Gods voice? Why can't they have wisdom? Why can't they turn aways from their flesh? Then you will come to the point that you can not commune with them anymore and all you can do is pray and watch them break apart and fall and fall and fall. I know. But I want to obey God. Sometimes, it's already enough to do your part and let God do His part. Don't you all realize, that it will be twice the pain for those people that loves you to watch you go through the ways and choice you all made apart from God.? Do you think it's easy to just watch you fall into sin and destroy everything and every one around you? It is not. God cries every time. He is not just watching. He is shouting into everybody's heart and soul. Same goes with me. I don't just watch but I pray. I don't abandon someone I just need to flee because it is the right thing to do. It doesn't mean people once with you suddenly moved away and became very far they don't love you anymore. Like God, He hates sin but He doesn't hates the person. Sometimes, it's more of we hate what you have been doing over and over and over again but we don't hate you. We are just waiting for you to make it right with God. That is the only way. Start repenting now. And sin no more. God loves everyone. God is alwas willing to forgive only if we ask. John 14:15 “If you love Me, you will keep My commandments.” 1 Peter 4:8 “Above all, keep loving one another earnestly, since love covers a multitude of sins.” #wisdom #forgiveness #wordofGod #timetoponder #christianlife
Thank You Lord. You answered our prayers! Truly, when we obey and keep our faith and work deligently for Your Name sake fruitfulness will come. Bring it on Lord Jesus! More to come..😊😊😊😊 Ezra 7:23New King James Version (NKJV)23 Whatever is commanded by the God of heaven, let it diligently be done for the house of the God of heaven. For why should there be wrath against the realm of the king and his sons? Think about it. When we lie we will cover it again with another lie and another and another. God is not pleased with lying.Proverbs 6:15-17New King James Version (NKJV)15Therefore his calamity shall come suddenly; |
