Merry Obedience to Christ this 2013!

*Mat 6:33* But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you.
As we go into 2013, let us meditate on this verse. Notice it doesn’t say seek the provisions or the hand of the Lord but His Kingdom and righteousness. We receive all that God has in store for us when we walk according to His ways.
I am not sure where the idea of a new year’s resolution came from, but it wouldn’t be a bad thing to make one for 2013. I’ve decided to ask God for help so that … Read moreMerry Obedience to Christ this 2013!

Life Without Jesus is a Lamentation

Lam 2:19 – Arise, cry out in the night: in the beginning of the watches pour out thine heart like water before the face of the Lord: lift up thy hands toward Him for the life of thy young children, that faint for hunger in the top of every street.
Broken fellowship with God is heart wrenching. God had allowed Jerusalem to be brought to a complete desolation by the Babylonians. The passage in verse 4 says that God “bent His bow like an enemy”.
There is a well known verse in the Bible that says “if God is for us, who can … Read moreLife Without Jesus is a Lamentation

Make No Mistake

“My name is Legion, for we are many. (Mark 5:9)” is apparently quoted in the movie Ghost Rider. So many times I hear the Bible being blasphemed as a book of fables, yet the secular world continues to quote from it. Could there be an agenda behind that? Could it be that the “super powers” of this world knows something that it tries to compel its audience to believe to be a fake? Could it be that “we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual … Read moreMake No Mistake

LORD, I do

You have given me forever to show You
All of the love I want to bring back to You
And You’ve given me a reason for living
I love You, I love You, I do
With Your blood, I’m bound
And I never want to let You down
As surely as You live
Through Your Spirit I will be true to You
I’ll love You, I love You, I do
You have spoken Your truth
I’m listening, Your words are so sweet
Through Your grace, all ends will meet
I can do all things through You who strengthens me
I love You, I love You, I do
Kindness You are teaching me
Your love changes … Read moreLORD, I do

God is my [our] home

A poem about the wonderful Jesus. I hope you enjoy.
Be blessed.
God is my rock, my home
In His presence is where I belong
He’s all faithful, my entire hope
He’s my shelter from the storm
My God provides all I need
He sees all and watches over me
My God of great comfort
The God who broke my chains and set me free
When He called me that’s when life begun
Now I live, I live for Him
I am His servant
I pray I won’t leave His will undone
God works for the good of those who love Him
All glory to the eternal King
More praises to Him my heart will … Read moreGod is my [our] home

Always Something to Talk About

Simply speaking, prayer is talking to God; having a conversation with God. It involves crying out, petitioning, listening, waiting, praising, worshipping, asking, interceding. Wow, why does it include waiting? Well, it ought to be continuous and God works in His own timing. While we wait, we continue to serve God, we continue to ask Him for deeper intimacy with Him. We might think that we’re all prayed-out; that there’s not much more we can ask for as God already knows and sees all we and the people around us need. Yes, God knows everything, but we should still continue communicating with … Read moreAlways Something to Talk About

Don’t forget to Pray

The Bible says the prayers of the righteous availeth much (James 5:16). Recently, I have been reading about North Korea, and other places in the world where Christians are persecuted and oppressed. Open Doors states the following: “In practice, civilians do not have any rights. There is no freedom to build churches or to worship in homes. Possession of a Bible or Christian materials is illegal and punishable by death. The proclamation of the Gospel is strictly forbidden. Christian parents can’t even share their beliefs with their children until they are old enough to understand the dangers. Christians are viewed as … Read moreDon’t forget to Pray

Tremble Because He Lives In You

At fellowship today, a brother said something that indeed reached to my spirit. He said that we should tremble at the thought or knowing a Holy God wants to dwell in us. God promises His Holy Spirit to all those who believe in the Name of Jesus Christ. It is truly a privilege to be chosen by God. As another brother puts it, it is unfair for us to go to heaven because we are all wretched sinners who deserve to go to hell, but God in His abounding mercy redeemed us! Praise Him, praise His Holy Name!! 🙂

Another Year In His Grace

It’s 2012! Another year to serve Him Who gives life. I pray this year instead of growing weary in our walk, that we will see this new year as another opportunity to have deeper and more meaningful fellowship with the Lord God. Today I was moved by the Spirit of the Father speaking through the pastor today. What remains with me was the reference of a famous race horse who runs faster and faster the further and nearer to the end he got. The pastor implored whether we ourselves (even in our old age) want to “grow stronger and better … Read moreAnother Year In His Grace

Get There, Be There

I haven’t come across anyone who’d prefer their friends to keep troubling matters to themselves. We often want a person to feel comfortable in confiding with us; opening up their hearts to let us know their deepest hurts. And many times it may be something that we ourselves are going through or went through. But what if it’s not? What if your friend comes to you and says they lived in an abusive home, drink to sleep because of the grief caused from the past; what do we say then? Sometimes, there’s nothing we can say. If a friend is … Read moreGet There, Be There
