Dunamis 13 Mlg cum Teambuilding. In any battle there's always preparation! Well done dunamis 13. Great team work and I am truly encouraged with your enthusiasm! Continue that fire! As what the puzzle you did last night says, We can do all things through Christ who gives us strength. -phil 4:13
"The strength of the team is each individual member. The strength of each member is the team." --Phil Jackson Team Work and Unity Demonstrated: Exodus 17:8-16 Victory over the Amalekites 8 Now Amalek came and fought with Israel in Rephidim. 9 And Moses said to Joshua, “Choose us some men and go out, fight with Amalek. Tomorrow I will stand on the top of the hill with the rod of God in my hand.” 10 So Joshua did as Moses said to him, and fought with Amalek. And Moses, Aaron, and Hur went up to the top of the hill. 11 And so it was, when Moses held up his hand, that Israel prevailed; and when he let down his hand, Amalek prevailed. 12 But Moses’ hands became heavy; so they took a stone and put it under him, and he sat on it. And Aaron and Hur supported his hands, one on one side, and the other on the other side; and his hands were steady until the going down of the sun. 13 So Joshua defeated Amalek and his people with the edge of the sword. 14 Then the Lord said to Moses, “Write this for a memorial in the book and recount it in the hearing of Joshua, that I will utterly blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven.” 15 And Moses built an altar and called its name, The-Lord-Is-My-Banner;[c] 16 for he said, “Because the Lord has sworn: the Lord will havewar with Amalek from generation to generation.” #teambuilding #teamwork #unity #lifegroup #buildinglives #christianlife #followerofChrist #passion #calling #leadership #family #onepurpose #onelife #oneGod 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍 So, I came out late from work and went straight to chinatown to look for prizes with micah for our upcoming F3 event and I came across this passport cover that says,
"happiness seems far but sometimes it is at your doorsteps." I told myself this deserves an instagram. Most people will also go around everywhere, difference places of different intentions just to find whatever they think is missing in their lives. Some Went to different places, went with one person after another trying to look for that missing formula to be happy. Wherein the truth my friend is that genuine happiness can never be found with any place and any person of this world. The true happiness can really be just in your doorsteps. It can be simple where you are at the moment. As the matter of fact You carry that happiness where ever you go as long as you know the source of the real joy in Life. It can only be found in our Creator! Our daddy God! Our Abba Father! You don't need to go anywhere to find happiness but must go everywhere sharing that happiness you have within you. 😊😊😊😊 #traveller #travellover #travelforJesus #onelife #onepurpose #oneGod #passportcover #chinatown #passion #calling #impartation #timetoponder #justathought #life #livinglife #Lifetothefullest Someone from our lifegroup asked, it was unexpected to hear it from him whom still very new in his faith. We shared what happened in the treasure hunt we did in praying for strangers and he was so blessed ang out loud wondered, "why there are people who don't think about God in every minute of everyday of their life? Why can't we pray for others always?" So of course he is still seeking that's his questions are like that. One simple answer is thAt we all know that we people are not perfect and have flows but i believe if we begin to embrace our faith more than a RELIGION but a lifestyle there will be far more greater things we can do for the kingdom of God. Like Daniel. He was a captive in babylon for 70 years as a punishment to the people of JudaH. Though he was already in a foreign land he maintained his worship to the Lord and never once tried to excuse himself from everything he already been doing for God when he was still in Judah when he is already captive in Babylon. He was tempted to eat meat as what is offered for the royal people. Even put his life to danger for protecting his prayer life. His Faith is not based if he is in judah or not or if the jews can see him or not but rather his faith became a lifestyle. A life of faith he offered to God that sees. #elroi #wordofGod #christianlife #followerofChrist #passion #calling #oneGod #onelife #onepurpose #Godslove
What Is Foolishness? How does the bible describe a fool?
The Bible lists many characteristics of such a person, often contrasting him with one who is wise. Ecclesiastes 10:2 says, “The heart of the wise inclines to the right, but the heart of the fool to the left.” A fool is one whose wayward heart turns continually toward foolishness. “Fools speak foolishness and make evil plans” (Isaiah 32:6). Proverbs 26:11 says, “As a dog returns to its vomit, so fools repeat their folly.” Fools do not learn their lessons from the mistakes they make. They continue doing the same foolish things over and over again, to their own destruction (Proverbs 18:7). Being foolish is being ignorant in the word of God or neglecting the seriousness of God's word. How to refrain from being fool? "THE FEAR OF THE LORD IS THE BEGINNING OF WISDOM." Stop living a foolish life of only thinking about your own desires but start living a life to the fullest wherein you can fulfill your God given purpose by abiding in His word and obeying His commandment and spreading the Love of God. Have A full of Love and blessed day everyone.😊😊😊🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 #livinglife #Lifetothefullest #christianlife #passion #calling #wordofGod #wisdom #love #onepurpose #oneGod #onlife I wonder how many complains God receive everyday than thanksgiving?Then furthermore I wonder of those people who already have many things in life but still left unsatisfied. I don't fully understand why the complain list mostly comes from the people who already have much in life while most of those people suffering else where can't even utter the words because of much grief. The key to true Joy is being happy of what you have and be thankful for each of whatever God has given to you.
I've read this from one of few men I totally agreed with,"What if you gave someone a gift and they neglected to thank you or appreciate it, would you be likely give them another? Life is the same way, in order to attrack more of the blessings that life can offer, you need to appreciate first what you already have. BecAuse guess what? You already have it." -BC Everything comes from God even your life? Have you even thank God you are still alive today? What if one day God decided to retain only the things we are thankful in our life? Would you still be alive? Would you still have much? Or less? Or nothing? Think about it. If you still find yourself unsatisfied, unhappy and ungrateful of whatever you have right now? Well then my friend you are stealing from yourself. You are stealing the opportunity for you to witness life, be happy and be thankful and see a greater picture of the world and bigger purpose for your life. You already have what you need. Be thankful for that and you will find yourself smiling with even a dollar. You are so blessed to be doing nothing! Be thankful and bless others! All you have was given by God and it deserve justice. Share•Bless•Love for the Glory of His Name not for your own satisfaction. 1 Timothy 4:4-5 (NKJV) 4 For every creature of God is good, and nothing is to be refused if it is received with thanksgiving; 5 for it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer. #grace #Godislove #Godmoves #thankful #blessings #christianlife #onelife #onepurpose #oneGod #livinglife #gift #timetoponder #reflections #wordofGod #wisdom #allglorytoGod #life #satisfied #happy #joyful #love My God has a sense of Humor. Would you agree with me? Today, again He spoke to me, for whom or why the message is like that I leave it all to Him but He is reminding me of His power to make a way when things are getting hopeless. He can always calm the storm! He can save someone who is about to get drown in perfect timing! He can always give you a Job on the most hopeless time! He can always take you out of your dark situation on His own timing. He will always make a way even there's seems to be no way! That is my God, and this is how tangible and evident He spoke to me everyday, I was just browsing in instagram and saw in the homepage a post "He will make a way when there's seems to be no way." After a few moments, i started singing, "He will make a way, when there seems to be no way, with love and strength for each new day. He will make a way for me." Then i stopped and asked, "why am I singing that? Pardon me, i just went for a surgery with my third General anaesthesia, so i kinda starting to forget things easily nowadays then I went to IG again and saw the same thing. I told myself, that's why. I closed my IG and check on something. Then i got a notification just a few minutes ago and I was shocked! Hahahah Someone like a post of mine which was 15weeks ago! And guess what it is about? 😊😊😊😊 Amazing isn't it? That was the third time. It was a confirmation from God! So for those I just prayer for your work to come! And for my silent prayers which I don't even know! God is telling me and you, "HE WILL MAKE A WAY!" Amen!!!!
Have you ever wondered why?
Everything happens for a reason though most of the time we don't know the reason. In most cases when the test gets tough we complain to our teachers why the exam is like this and like that? Then, we wonder why other students started to get serious and answer. Life is so unpredictable but then life will also be less complicated if you will try to focus and take your own test instead of watching the rest take their tests. We always fight a different battle in life. Your tribulation and lengths of it will also be different from others. It doesn't matter how easy or difficult the test may be, the point is why did God gave you that? If you just try to get closer to the Giver of the test, the Father and the Teacher you will realize that, at the end of every test all He want, is to see us come out differently. Just exactly how He pictured we will answer and survive the trials and tribulations. Take heart. He knows exactly what He is doing. Be still and know that He is your God. Ecclesiastes 3:1 Galatians2:17-21
17 “But if, while we seek to be justified by Christ, we ourselves also are found sinners, is Christ therefore a minister of sin? Certainly not! 18 For if I build again those things which I destroyed, I make myself a transgressor. 19 For I through the law died to the law that I might live to God. 20 I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me. 21 I do not set aside the grace of God; for if righteousness comes through the law, then Christ died in vain.” Paul accepted the fact that us people are all sinners no matter what. He said, "if I build up again those things I have destroyed that make me a transgressor." Friends, when we died in ourselves the moment we accepted Christ in our life it should be the beginning and the END. The beginning of eternal walk with God, abiding in the commandments but fully paid by grace; The end of the old life, past and sins that has been crucified with Jesus in the cross. The moment we gave our life to God it is no longer us who takes control but God. If today you have might said yes for Jesus to be your Lord and Saviour but have not yet fully gave the stirring wheel for Him to take charge of the rest of your Journey well then let go and let God! My prayer goes for all of us, believers and unbelievers, may the Lord be the center of life because at the end of the day, the sun will come down while you are still wondering how, why and for what it goes down and up but will never find your answer from this world. We will never know everything or why things happen and that is the very proof of the divine existence that we all need to acknowledge. Thank You Lord for this day! May we all walk according to your will and not on our flesh! In Jesus Name! Amen! #wordofGod #christianlife #oneGod #onelife #onepurpose #followerofChrist #passion #calling #Godislove #grace #forgiveness #newlife #thankful Leave People Better Than You First Found Them!
There is no greater than the power of love and intentional mentorship. In this lifetime we will meet tons of people and there is no assurance how long they can stay in your life. I have been in different places with different people for a short given time and what I love doing most is loving them and giving out the best that I can to make an impact unto their lives and show them how great my God has done into my life. Nobody is perfect in this world but the children , youths and the people given by God to you to mentor, they don't need a perfect mentor they only need a person who will be willing enough to pour out the love and learning with pure intentions of following God's great command. "The second is this: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no commandment greater than these." -Mark 12:31 I believe that love can push people to go beyond their own limits. There is no way people will waste so much energy and time doing things and can still be so happy if they don't love what they are doing. Passion will always stir up your boat whenever you are stucked somewhere. Today if you feel like giving up on doing what is needed to be done for people, if you are just so fed up with what is happening with this world or tired of loving people who don't do anything but the opposite or giving up on people who have been disappointing you or if you have not mentor any or never reach a hand to someone I encourage you all to take heart and look around you. There is so much hate, riot, killing and Hurts that has already been happening what difference can you make? Love does! Shine brighter in this dark world. Be a listener for those who needs it. Love! Light! Listen! #love #poweroflove #mentoring #mentor #onelife #oneGod #onepurpose #serve #relationships #friendship #Godislove #christianlife #leadership #passion #calling #life #livinglife #light #makeadifference If the rapture happens today will anything still be significant? Will it still matter if you are married or not? Will it still matter if you have a boyfriend or girlfriend or don't have? Will it still matter if you have tons of money or don't have. Will it still matters how many houses, condos and cars you have? Will it still matters how high your ranking at work? Will it still matter how many trophys or medal you have? Will it still matters how slim or fat you are? Will it still matter if you are popular or not? Will it still matters how many places you have been? Nothing will matter on that day except our Faith! If you let anybody or anything took that faith on Jesus away from you today you need to think about it again. THERE IS NOTHING THAT WILL MATTER AT THE END OF TIMES but only your soul. #reality #endtimes #rapture #wakeup #Godislove #evangelism #oneGod #onelife #onepurpose
I hope we get what Paul is trying to say. I hope we will open our hearts to what James also have spoken. We are supposed to be a bond servants of God not of men. Jesus asked, "why do you call me Lord if you don't obey what I say?" Being a bond servant of the Lord as what the apostles proclaimed means we don't have the rights but only priviledges. If we have a mindset that we are SERVING the Lord almighty and not just any man under the heaven, serving will not be so hard. We don't serve For the leaders but God ordered that we should Honor the authority given by Him to the appointed men on earth. Even the leaders and those who are in authority are Bondservants of the Lord. We are all here to serve and not to be served. We are all here, called for a great purpose and that is to proclaim the Gospel of Lord Jesus Christ. Many churches got divided because of different points of view of the people or because of the head of the churches wherein there is only one head of the Church, That is God! Today I seek for all of us to dig deep in our hearts. Search, and find who is in the center? Is it Jesus or the people around you? Your family? Or you? Think about it.1 Corinthians 1:10-17A Church Divided Over Leaders10 I appeal to you, brothers and sisters,[a] in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree with one another in what you say and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly united in mind and thought. 11 My brothers and sisters, some from Chloe’s household have informed me that there are quarrels among you. 12 What I mean is this: One of you says, “I follow Paul”;another, “I follow Apollos”; another, “I follow Cephas[b]”; still another, “I follow Christ.”
13 Is Christ divided? Was Paul crucified for you? Were you baptized in the name of Paul? 14 I thank God that I did not baptize any of you except Crispus and Gaius,15 so no one can say that you were baptized in my name. 16 (Yes, I also baptized the household of Stephanas; beyond that, I don’t remember if I baptized anyone else.)17 For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel—not with wisdom and eloquence, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power. The enemy fights the hardest when he knows God has something great in store. A fight he will never win with God.
If in case you woke up today and see that you are in a battle right now within the home court of the enemy, take Heart! Remember Jesus already overcome the world for you and me! Just stay closely with Him during the battle. He will make you through it my friend. Dont let the devil steal your worship. John 16:33 "I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world." #spiritualwarfare #Godislove #christianlife #allforJesus #allglorytoGod #oneGod #battle #peace #blessed #onepurpose #onelife #wordofGod Real Joy comes from within. Not the fake smiles that people see. Not the laughter you give for others to hear. Real joy generates when your soul is fully stirred up by God. When that happens it amazingly comes out in many ways. You will be able to do things beyond your own ability and capacity. You will bless people even you don't have much, you will think of the happiness of the others beyond your pain and you will never stop loving people even the unlovable. People will see it, the outcome, the output, the evidence of it but YOU AND GOD alone will totally know why you are able to do those things. The agreement will always be between you and God. Today seek God to pour out that joy, peace and love into your heart that no matter what is the situation you will never be in lack of those three and pour it out to others as well.
Ephesians 3:20New King James Version (NKJV) 20 Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, #Godislove #peace #joy #love #christianlife #onepurpose #onelife #oneGod #allglorytoGod #share #blessedtobless #beavesseloflove #wordofGod #devotion We met uncle Vincent Tan yesterday while eating after my check up. He was selling some keychains and Something with him touched my heart. So we bought a lock and a key paired keychain. We just said "God bless you and it all started there." Who would have thought that for blessing a man by buying the items he was selling and saying good words unto him and showing him simple act of love will encourage me and my friends hundredfolds. God spoke through him. I know. Every word in his life testomony made a pinch in my heart. He was a man full of content. A man who came out from prison and ended up giving His life to God. He is so blessed that he don't even see his lackness. All he want is for God to continually bless him everyday of enough food to eat and a place to stay and live another day. He wants to sell and do what he can until the day His father calls him in Heaven. He said chrsitians like you and me and non-christians, we don't know until when is our time. We will all die but all i want to know is how my God loves me. He said this tattooes in my body is nothing. I don't care what the people say, what matters is the heart. One thing he learned through the pastors. Thank You Lord for the reminder of your love for us everyday! We end it by praying for him and more than we blessed him he have blessed us back more. Praise God for always sending unexpected people in an unexpected time to give your word and comfort for your beloved children. How about you? Loving people can be simple as that. Would you like to act upon that today? Share! Bless! Love! That is the worth living life friends! Choose to live that kind of life! #greatcommission #greatcommission #actofkindness #love #passion #calling #christianlife #theunexpected #oneGod #onelife #onepurpose
