Jesus, Fill My Heart...

I love this daily devotional from Joseph Prince.

You know for years, I was in bonded.
I longed to worship and wanted to get to know who God really is but sad to say, some "religous", self-righteous preachers prevented me from doing so.
They demanded too much from me which got me so frustrated and depressed.
Exposed from wrong Christian teachings, I told God ,"Hey, if you want alot of stuffs from me.
If you keep demanding alot of things from me then I might as well go away. Because you know that I have NOTHING to give you! You know that I will always fail you! "

So, for years, I went to live on this earth alone.

But like I said on my past blogs, life on earth as it ages became so empty, heavy and dangerous. So on these shaky moments, I seeked for refuge. Then I found myself talking to God again.

I asked God,
"Where are you? If you're for real then lead me to you..."

Fastforward to present..

Im here... Smiling at you. :)

I know God answered my question because life right now
has become so beautiful!

And awesome that all I wana do is to worship Him all day!

The secret is...

Just talk to God as you are.

Worship Him as you are.

Be yourself.

No pretensions. Fears. Worries. Etc.

For God knows you can never perfect. That's why He sent Jesus
to die for you on the cross so you can be perfect in His eyes!

Halleluyaaaah!

Thank you Jesus because in You I found my righteousness.

With you I am superclean, sin- free and beautiful.

Thank you Joseph Prince for leading me to the Truth that sets me free!

Happy and blessed Monday everyone!

Worship God As You Are by Joseph Prince

Ephesians 5:27
27that He might present her to Himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but that she should be holy and without blemish.

Have you been to a worship service where you stood with your hands raised, ready to worship God, only to hear the worship leader say, “Before we worship God, let’s all search our hearts”? Then, as you search your heart, before long, you dig up something that you don’t like. The next thing you know, your hands are no longer raised and soon, you find yourself sitting down — you don’t feel good worshiping God any more.

My friend, I have good news for you. Come and worship Him as you are. Come into God’s presence Jesus-conscious, forgiveness-conscious and grace-conscious! Come into God’s presence bringing only Jesus the spotless Lamb of God as your offering.

Your worshiping God is like the times God’s people in the Old Testament brought their offerings to the priest. The priest examined the animal sacrifice to ensure that it was without blemish. The priest did not examine the sinner. If the animal was without blemish, God accepted the animal sacrifice as well as the offerer who brought the animal.

So when you come into God’s presence, don’t do any self-examination and be discouraged when you find faults in your life. God does not examine you. He sees you through the full value, and all the loveliness and acceptance of His Son. (Ephesians 1:6) He sees you holy and without blemish!

Remember the woman who was referred to as a sinner, possibly a prostitute? She went to the house of the Pharisee who was hosting Jesus and wiped Jesus’ feet with her hair. (Luke 7:36–50) That was her act of worship.

She came to Him as she was. Yes, she knew that she had sinned, but she worshiped Jesus first because of who He is. She was Jesus-conscious. Then, she heard Jesus say, “Your sins are forgiven.” (Luke 7:48) She received the forgiveness she needed from Him.

Whatever you need from the Savior, come to Him as you are. Worship Him for who He is and then you will hear Him say, “Go your way. Your restoration has come. Your prosperity is here. You are healed. You have been made whole!”
