What do you see?
Is it the scratches in the window or the Sun outside the window? Sometimes we people tend to be like that. We limit our eyes only on what we see in the surface. We see the broken lives, the messed up lives, the unwanted attitudes of people, the past, the wrong doings or even just the gossip about people. Sometimes we only see the bad situation, the lackness, the struggles, the problems and purely the surface of life. We tend to forget that there's alway a rainbow after the rain, light at the end of the tunnel and a wonderful and amazing SUN from God outside this wounded and scratched window. There's always beauty underneath every challenges and there's always treasure within people. It's just a matter of how we see things. Today I pray that we will have an eye and heart like God who sees all things beautiful about us. He loves us and died for us while we were still sinners. He always know that from our darkest moment and messed up life there's always a good and beautiful thing that can come out from it. Today Believe in the power of His love. 😊 have a blessed day! Romans 5:6-8 NKJV 6 For when we were still without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. 7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man someone would even dare to die. 8 But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. #wordofGod #reflection #followerofChrist #love #Godslove #Godsway #spiritualeye #naturelover #sun #beauty #rightperspective #life #devotion #travellessons #theraphy #peace When we grow older in our ministry we will begin to grow in maturity in our faith. I discover that the best way to help yourself to be more like Christ is always position yourself thinking ahead that when we carry the "Christian" bloodline in our vein and carry around a signboard about it people will never see us the same. They will never look who Peter or Paul is but definitely everything we do and say will reflect back to our Saviour. If we follow Christ by faith we will believe that He can change us in all aspect when we fully surrender. They say, when we try to follow someone we often have that tendency to be almost the same person we follow. Look at elijah and elisha. So, if we FOLLOW CHRIST i believe it will be the same thing.
If you will read the whole chapter 1 of The book of Hebrew (Hebrew 11:1-40) you will see many names of those who have been faithful in their lives until the very end. Nobody on those names was perfect. They all fall short. They all did all kinds of sin but what made them get in the list of the "HONOR ROLL OF THE FAITHFUL"? That is their faith that no matter how many times they fail and fall their hearts always longed to go back in the very heart of God. They always go back to the heart of worship. That faith that they will be forgiven. For us who are living now in the new covenant, it is for us to walk closely to Jesus no matter what. I believe that when we get closer and closer to our Saviour that is the only way to really know His very Heart. Our Father knows us all. We all came from Him and I am sure He will definitely want to see us to be more of His likenes like how He first created mankind. Today, who are you presenting in the World? The real you in the flesh or the real you in Christ? We can all be real, but of which? Today i pray that all of us will be able to define our real identity in Christ. We need to die in our flesh to let that whole new us take over. Today, if at the end will still have that HONOR ROLL OF THE FAITHFUL, will you be there? Will people remember you as someone who live his/her life so close to the Father? Or people will remember a christian that says he/she is a son and daughter of the most High but never see that traits of the father in every words, every actions and every decisions that you have made? Who are you following today? The trendings in social media or the steps of Jesus written in bible? Really? Have you ponder about it? "We should live our lives not trying to protect our very own integrity because morals will fail in one point; but to always protect the integrity of CHRIST who live within us, who will never ever fail us." - Wilmie I remember those days when I studied the book of Ecclesiastes. I was so inlove, like so eager to go from one chapter to another. I remember during leaders camp i stayed in the balcony every morning finishing up where I left off. I love reading how the wisest man on earth dealt with all his frustarations, struggles, disappointments and failures. It was nice to learn from how He have witnessed life and shared how vanity it was. I picked up bit by bit of wisdom everytime I turned the pages and exactly during camp i heard one great learning about wisdom that I will never forget.
There are two ways we gain wisdom. 1. We get wisdom by our own experience. 2. We gain wisdom from others experience. I will never forget what Pastor Wayne Cordeiro of Hawaii shared about wisdom. " It is good to gain wisdom from our own experience that is why we say experience is the best teacher but is it better to learn from others so we can eacape from going through the same thing. It is like one person who runs in the ramp down fast and ends up hitting his nose in the wall broke his nose and said, ouch that is painful! And one watching that man do it and said oww, it is painful to hit your nose in the wall i will surely not gonna do that. It is not a rocket science to know that it is painful for us to try it on and test it. That is exactly why King Solomon wrote the book of ecclesistes. It was for us to learn from his own experience so we can escape from the same ending. After all the learnings that i have learned from there I begun to be more eager to buy books and read. I love reading other evangelists, pastors, missionaries, leaders and simple christians experiences and downfalls. I love learning from them. I love picking up those bits of wisdom I can add on. I love learning from the people around me whether below or above me. I love to witness life that way. It was an awesome experience to be a noticer. I love reading the bible not part by part or cherry picked verses but the whole story. Why such verse was said. Learning from the whole story will tell us why God punished or what made God make such decisions. All of those people in the bible are great lives we should all learn from. And i therefore conclude it was awesome to both experience gaining wisdom from my own experience specially if they are the good ones and gaining wisdom from other peoples lives so I can learn from them, take note, try to apply to my life, try my best to refrain the same path or prepare myself to the worst and learn from their success as well so i have a guide and direction to begin with. I pray the same cry of King Solomon. He was pleading us all to really embrace that nature of accountability to God and to the people we love to help us grow more in wisdom. How do you want to gain wisdom? I suggest read the whole book of ecclesiastes. John 3:16-17New King James Version (NKJV)
16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. 17 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. Today don't forget to be thankful in every detail of your life. You don't need to witness great miracles in your life to appreciate Gods' Love. Your life today is already a miracle. Being safe in your travel, you have something to eat for today and simply waking up is already a miracle from God. See the small things and when you put it together you will begin to see the great miracles of God through your life. His Love is equally given to all. He doesn't love you less or more or others less or more, it's just about how we see things and how small or big we see Gods love into our life. Perspectivey friends! How much do you see Gods love into your life? It's always our choice. Open your spiritual eyes! Open your heart! Have a blessed and full of Love weekend everyone. 😊😊😊🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 #FAVOURED #BLESSED #wordofGod #THANKFUL #christianlife #Love #oneGod #Saved #onelife #redeemed #onepurpose #called #spreadlove #lesshate #praymore #followerofChrist So I tried the 5:8 verses again and Today God asked me to go to the book of Isaiah so I typed in Isaiah 5:8 and i really had no clue what does it mean then that made me get my bible from the bag, God brought me to Isaiah chapter 5 and I was moved by the passage. I'ts really sad on the part of of Daddy God, our creator to look upon His creation whom He created with pure heart and intentions and expecting them to be good also and bear good fruits but afterwards became WILD FRUITS. If you will look upon the world today I believe God's heart is still breaking. Today I pray that as believers and followers of Christ we will always seek the best intentions to please our God Who loves us so much. I pray that it will always be our intention to love our neighbours and spread the love of Christ. We can never fix this world but we can always play our part. They always say that if you mixed a rotten fruit in the good ones everything will be rotten in due time. Why not believe the otherway around, wherein one Good fruit, one good christian that is mixed with all the bad ones can influence and make a difference. Be that one Christian who will stand firm on your faith despite of the chaos of this world. Believe Now! Act now! Choose now!
Isaiah 5:1-4(NKJV) God’s Disappointing Vineyard 5 Now let me sing to my Well-beloved A song of my Beloved regarding His vineyard: My Well-beloved has a vineyard On a very fruitful hill. 2 He dug it up and cleared out its stones, And planted it with the choicest vine. He built a tower in its midst, And also made a winepress in it; So He expected it to bring forth good grapes, But it brought forth wild grapes. 3 “And now, O inhabitants of Jerusalem and men of Judah, Judge, please, between Me and My vineyard. 4 What more could have been done to My vineyard That I have not done in it? Why then, when I expected itto bring forth good grapes, Did it bring forth wild grapes? You woudln't want to know what God say He will do because of the disobedience of this world but read through the next verses you will know, the verses serve as a warning to the whole humanity, good thing Jesus came to redeemed us. #followerofChrist #wordofGod #christianlife "You need to start thinking what God will say rather than thinking what other people will say."
This applies to all aspect of life, may it be in how you run your relationship, how you play your role at work, how you decide for your family or just simply living out a CHRISTIAN LIFE. Live a life of courage obeying God rather than pleasing people to get an approval and compromise the truth of biblical principles of life. Let's try to live not stepping on other peoples feet but be of good cheer and courage to live boldly for Gods glory. Acts 5:29 (NKJV) 29 But Peter and the other apostles answered and said: “We ought to obey God rather than men. #Godstruth #truth #Godswill #obedience #boldness #scripture #wordofGod #christianlife #oneGod #onelife #onepurpose #evangelism #followerofChrist "Finder Keepers."
We are just humans who have personal desires and necessities. Some may be in abundance and some are in lack. But as Christians who are truly a believer and follower of Christ we should not worry if we have much or less or if we wake up the next day with everything or with nothing. All that matters is we are seeking and in the kingdom of God. God said SEEK first the kingdom of God and actually all those necessities and even desires of our heart that is in line with the character and will of God will be given unto us as well. Priority my friend! Motivation and conviction! What is your priority at the moment? I realize that the only things that we worry about everyday are the things we prioritize. Career! Relationships! Money! Family! All those are equality important for us to survive here on earth but those are not on an equal value with the kingdom of God. Today choose to seek Gods presence. Choose to build His kingdom where ever you go. Choose not to worry about anything but in prayer believe that God will always supply all our needs. Today Be A finder keepers! Seek the Kingdom and when you found it keep it deeply in your heart! 😊🙏🏻 have a blessed day everyone. #wordofGod #reflection #christianlife #followerofChrist #LIVINGLIFE #seeker #keeper #NotoWorrying #kingdomofGod #JesusistheKing #passion #calling #allforJesus #surrender This is why I always Love to sit in the upper deck of a double decker bus. It gives me peace to just plug in my earphones listen to worship songs and read or look out from the window. Watch people pass by, observe and be a noticer. In this peaceful moment you will have that moment with God, appreciation of life and contemplation of your present life towards your near future. Like Joshua in the sun stand still prayer, the sun being still up there was the sign of Gods covenant unto him that God is with him. Seeing that bright sun right now this morning reminds me of the amazing life that still awaits me; that today until my last breath God will be with me. I may not know exactly what God will do and twist in my life someday but as long as i walk in His will it's already good enough for me.
I may not understand everything but that is the trill of being just a human who is NOT all knowing following a God that is ALL knowing. My actions, decisions and ways may fail at times but that turning point, that failing moment is always an opportunity to get up and start new. Moment of failure is also our moment of learning and reminder that only Gods way prevails. Isaiah 55:8-9Niv 8 “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the Lord. 9 “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts. This is the concept i believe in and want to believe in until the end. There should be a formula in life that we need to follow. "GODS WILL-GODS WAY-GODS TIME" These three should be all together for you to be in the right path. Sometimes it can be Gods will but not yet Gods time,wait a little bit more,be patient & faithful. It could also be God's time but not God's will or it Could be Gods will in Gods timing but you are doing it and making it possible on your own way and not Gods way, everything will still collapse. Find that moment with God! Lord today i pray for your guidance and direction that i will always put those 3 formula in life in every decisions that i will make may it be personal or in ministry. Thank You Jesus! Amen! #wordofGod #christianlife #followerofChrist #devotion I remember during leadership training the speaker shared that for us to be a good leader faithfulness over what we currently have is important.
Surely in every journey there will be a variation of the amount of responsibility given depending on the length of experience or of any other reasons. Like when you first look for a job and you're a fresh grad, most likely you wont have the same treatment as those seniors; But be faithful on your small beginning because our beginning always determines our ends. Little by little we will grow from our starting point if we let God teach us along the way. When He sees us faithful over what He has given to us definitely He will pour out more and more afterwards. Lord today help us to obey on your words and the leading of the Holy spirit. You are an all knowing God. You sees the deepest contemplations of our hearts. Protect us Lord that we will not fall in the trap of the enemy. Guide us Lord and help us to be faithful of our vows, commitment and covenant with You. In Jesus Name! Amen! 😊😊😊🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 Matthew 25:23New King James Version (NKJV) 23 His lord said to him, ‘Well done,good and faithful servant; you have been faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.’ #morningmetime #devotion #contemplating #leadership #faithfulness #obedience #holyspiritleading #follower #followerofChrist #smallbeginning #finishtherace #faithfuloffew #passion #calling #loveofservicefortheLord Most of us often complain of the little things in life. Bad mood. Having a not so good day at work. Has been scolded! Lost something! Relationship Issues! Taste a bad food! Traffic! We complain about almost everything! And the often excuse of such attitude is us being human. Being contended is necessary in life and appreciation of what we have is a good way to start. Everyday God actually blesses us of so much we are just to focus on negative things to see, we are just so distracted of our wants of something we don't have. We are so into the things we have lost. We magnify the things that have hurted us. Then every blessings that comes that day are all blurred, like a shady portion of our daily life or like a small dot of light in the dark. Wake up friends! There is so much in life we need to be thankful for. Everyday when you woke up in the morning is already a blessing from our God Almighty. The key of being contented is seeing the unnoticeable. Appreciate every little things. Have a bigger perspective of Life. Create a positive view of life and start seeing How wonderful, loving, caring and merciful our God is. Jesus did not suffer and die for us to repeat the same thing. He did that for us not to go through the same torment so STOP TORMENTING YOURSELF! Start living your life like How God want you! Open your eyes!

"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
Lights Ministry is the first ministry I did for the church before about 3 years ago. One time somewhere in those three years i posted this photo taken by my mentor salem and put caption "bring light to the world." I was so amazed when i saw the fb memories recap yesterday because I know in my heart how I am fulfilling this very line today. There is always power in vision! A man without vision is totally lost. If you don't have an aim or a target you will never have a plan. We all have our purpose on this lifetime, pair it with a vision! Keep moving forward. Don't be fearful to try and fail. Life is like that. It's a trial and error until you find the answer. And it will be a continious question and answer portion. Once one question is done you need to solve another one other wise you will stop in the middle of the road. Your journey will never be full. I desired to bring that light of Jesus to the world few years ago. I may not have been in the whole world but at least I've already started somewhere. Everything is a process and there should be a progress. What's your vision my friend? What do you want to take part on the great commission? When will you take part? Live life Now • Bring the Light of Jesus Everywhere • Love Every Human Beings As possible as you can • Preach the Gospel to every Creature. #travelforJesus #light #love #lovemuch #allforJesus #allglorytoGod #Lifetothefullest #life #passion #calling #ministry #christianlife #greatcommission #onelife #onepurpose #oneGod |
