Do Not fear - Jesus Ep 002




Sometimes in life, you get fearful.

You get fearful maybe because you think too much.

Maybe you lost a job, a relationship, needs a new direction in life,
you fought with a colleague or your bestfriend.

Anything could make you fearful.

The truth is, anyone could suffering from it , right now.

But aren't you glad, you are reading this blog right now so I could remind you
how blessed you are even in the midst of your storm because
YOU GOT JESUS in you?

Yes. You are blessed!

So let me tell you, rebuke that feelings right now and rise up by getting back on God's word.

Read the Bible verse again.

For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.
2Tim 1:7

What a beautiful reminder!

As Jesus keeps reminding us always.

Surely, God knows [ages ago], that His children get scared and fearful everytime we have problems attack us every now and then,
that's why He has written several times in the Bible--- DO NOT FEAR!
It has written 365x, for you to grab unto the whole year.
Imagine that!

So, let me tell you again.

DO NOT FEAR.

in the midst of your fears, keep praising Him and enjoy His abundant peace.
Relax and enjoy life. Focus only on Jesus.

For now, let me show this photo of Jesus at the cross.


God has gave up His only Son, Jesus for you and me.
At the cross, Jesus cried out "my GOD, my GOD, why have you forsaken me?"
so today, we as His children, redeemed by Jesus can shout,
"Abba, Father why have you so blessed me?"

Wow!
HALLELUYAAAAAAH!

What an awesome Abba, Father!

I Speak In Tongues

There are moments in my life that I am blank.

I couldn't think or don't know what to do or say
about a certain issue or circumstance in my life.

I don't know how to deal a problem.

I am so helpless, that even if I pray I feel so defenseless.

I sought the Lord and asked if there is any way that I can do better than this?

Then He showed me how to speak in tongues.

At first, hearing other believers do it gave me a weird feeling.
But unconsciously, I know that it touched me somewhere because
now, I am so into it.

I speak in tongues when I walk. Hey! it's better than yoga or meditation, you know~

I speak in tongues when I'm pissed off and losing a lot of patience.

I speak in tongues when I don't know what to think or say. It's better than groaning.

I speak in tongues when I feel so stressed out about just anything.

Do you know why I keep doing that?

Because....



It calms me down.

It refreshes me even if I do it for just a few seconds.

Even as I'm typing this right now, I am speaking in tongues.

I know deep within, the Holy Spirit is doing the job for me.

Learn to let the Holy Spirit do the job for you.

Read more from Pastor Joseph Prince...

"How The Holy Spirit Helps Us"

Romans 8:26
26Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.

The Holy Spirit is not inside you to point out your faults or nag at you when you do wrong. God’s Word tells us that He is inside us to help us in our weaknesses. In areas where we are without strength, He is there to help us. When we don’t know what to pray, “the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered”.

Now, don’t read the verse and say, “Well, I don’t know what I should pray for, and since the Holy Spirit makes intercession for me, I will leave the praying to Him.”

If the Holy Spirit, without our participation, makes intercession for us, then every Christian would be living victorious lives automatically! But we know that there are many Christians who don’t seem to be walking in the fullness of God’s blessings. So obviously, Romans 8:26 is not saying that. What is it saying then?

In the first part of the verse, the word “helps” is sunantilambanomai in the original Greek text. It means “to take hold together against”. Now, “together” means that our participation is required. In other words, the Holy Spirit sunantilambanomai or takes hold together with us against the problem.

So if you just sit back and don’t take hold of the problem, the Holy Spirit has nothing to “take hold of” with you. If you don’t pray, He has nothing to pray. If you keep quiet, then even if He wants to pray through you, He can’t. But when you release your prayer in tongues, you are actually allowing Him to pray through you. And He will take hold together with you against the problem, and pray the perfect prayer through you because “He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God”. (Romans 8:27)

And you can be confident that when you ask anything according to the will of God, He hears you. And if you know that He hears you, whatever you ask, you know that you have the petitions that you have asked of Him! (1 John 5:14–15)

Today’s Bread Is Not For Tomorrow

I am learning to trust God now whatever it takes.
This is going to be a good habit. I know.

Hebrews 11:1 says, “Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not yet seen.”

After several years of soul-searching, everything has come to fruition and
now it's time to use my Faith to someone that I know who is not going to fail me.

Yes! That is God..and Jesus!

It's better this way..

No stress and just fun!

Sharing another powerful message from Pastor Joseph Prince.

Enjoy and be blessed!


----Today’s Bread Is Not For Tomorrow----

Matthew 6:11
11Give us this day our daily bread.

Doctors have discovered that worry, stress, fear and anxiety can cause stomach ulcers, high blood pressure and other health problems. The Bible says that a merry heart does good like medicine, but a broken spirit dries the bones. (Proverbs 17:22) It also says that God wants us to prosper and be in health, even as our soul prospers. (3 John 1:2)

When our church was much smaller, I used to worry a lot about my sermons weeks before I even preached them! I was so stressed that I developed symptoms in my body. Two doctors checked me on separate days and found my blood pressure to be very high. Other tests found traces of blood in my urine. I even had mild panic attacks. I believe that the devil was trying to undermine my ministry and destroy me.

But praise God, He delivered and healed me, and taught me not to worry. Today, the church is a lot bigger and I have learnt by the grace of God not to worry. The verse that set me free was this: “Therefore do not worry about tomorrow…” (Matthew 6:34) You see, if you worry about tomorrow, you are trying to live tomorrow today!

My friend, God does not want you to do that. Jesus taught us to pray, “Give us this day our daily bread.” He did not say, “Give us this day our weekly bread.” God gives us daily bread, not weekly bread. God doesn’t give tomorrow’s bread today. And today’s bread is not meant for tomorrow!

This means that God wants you to live today and not worry about what will happen or what you have to do tomorrow. He gives you sufficient grace for today, not tomorrow.

“But Pastor Prince, I have a very important presentation to give tomorrow!”

Beloved, when tomorrow comes, the bread — provision and grace — will be there. I am not advocating laziness and inactivity. By all means, do your homework, but don’t worry about it. Just trust the One who wants you to give Him all your cares (1 Peter 5:7), and enjoy His peace and life today!

My New Alarm Clock



I got addicted of facebook games and this made me stay up late lately.
Everyday I wake up so sluggish and when at work, I feel so sleepy.

I didn't like it. And I want more energy.

So last night. I knew that I will have a hard time waking up around 6 in the morning,
and then I anticipated , I'm gona be so lazy getting up for work again.

So a thought came to my mind.

After playing several games which made me drowsy around 1.30 am...
I just asked Jesus to wake me up instead.

I don't like to use my alarm because I feel pressure on it and
it makes me irritable ...

So, I thought, maybe Jesus can do something about it.




tic tac..tic tac...

morning comes....

I woke up around 6.20am...



And let me tell you, I woke up feeling so refreshed and energised
as if I got an 8hr sleep.

I'm here in my office now.

Not feeling sleepy, sluggish or irritable..but instead so hyper
and happy.:)

It's amazing!

It's totally a different feeling waking up with Jesus!

I couldn't explain!

Maybe you'll just need to try it yourself.

Before sleeping and if you feel so stress out and tired
about anything, just talk to Him and let Him wake you up
in the morning.

It works for me.

Just try it!


Thank you Jesus!

Suicide- just like that??

I heard a lot of suicide news lately.
Tsk!
I wish I could help those people in some possible ways
that I can.
Perhaps, sharing words of wisdom based on the Truths
that I know..like on this blog.


Well, I could only wish for that.
Because , by nature, humans are stubborn.
And we have this attitude of not really giving up so easily unless
we get to the end of our rope causing us frustrations, depressions , stress.

Then there goes suicide.



I don't want to make it sound so melodramatic.
But this blog has recorded the greatest pains and fears of my life.
Like any others, I, too was confused. Depressed.Frustrated.
Lost. Rejected. Financially down. Battling for my health.
Losing my breath.

Until now, my financial and career status have not levelled up compared
to some of my friends and colleagues that I know.
My mom is just renting a small room in our province , with a very patient
friend who's been taking of her for a year now. ( I'm blessed on that)
I have no stable savings ...my bank always reaches to up 0 ( ends up to negative
sometimes) and goes back to normal until I get my salary back for a month.
I don't own my own house. I have no property.No car.

I only have JESUS!

Now, you got me on that.

Can you hear me complain?

No.

I cannot complain.

Because I have JESUS!!!
For me, living in this world is not about all my pains,struggles and hurts..
it's all about HIM!

If I continue to live in fears and stress and be controlled in this world. i'd surely die.
But JESUS is the LIFE!

He is the only WAY, The TRUTH and the LIFE!


What about you?
Are there things that are troubling you? Stressing you out until you want to
pull that trigger off your head and lost your soul?

Humans as we are, naturally, we always cater to our own woes and complaints about life.

And then we blame Life why we get to have one and just wished we were dead.

Pathetic way of living , right?

I used to think that way, too.

There was this saddest part of my life where, I questioned God,
"Why He allowed me to be born in this world just to suffer"

I felt life sucked that everytime I always ended up waking up on the wrong side of the bed.
Finding no meaning for everything.

I can say, I almost reached the end of my rope.
Good thing, little prayers here and there have sustained me.
So even when I thought of taking my own life. It was filtered with prayers.
He has kept me well!

*I tell you, don't underestimate little thoughts of you talking to Him.
It does wonders than going to church kneeling all day and say "halleluyah, halleluyah!
But deep in your heart, you don't really mean it.
Maybe, just a show off or something for whatever.
for God knows what's in your heart and when you are sincere.


To sum up.

whatever's making you struggle and hard to breathe
until you fall out of your head at this moment.
I can only say come to Jesus.
Talk to Him like a child does who is sooo lost and doesn't know what to do anymore
but cry.

Come to Jesus.

He has given me LIFE..

He will do the same to you because He loves you so.

Don't take anti-depressants.

Take Jesus!

Don't go to a psychiatrist.

Consult to Jesus!


Yeah!

Just JESUS!


(Good saturday morning everyone. There's a purpose of me being stuck here in my office on a great saturday morning,.
Now I know. )

Law Or Grace - Verdict Of The Jerusalem Council

Yes, we are Christians..and the world generally will see
us and expect us to live our lives as perfect as Christ is.

But we can never be perfect. As long as we are in this mad,fallen
world, time and time again, we will fall. We will stumble. We will sin.

So don't strain yourself out with so much "goodness" that you want to have in you.
Naturally, as you go along your Christian walk, and as Jesus continues to live in you
..it will happen without you even noticing it.

I am not there yet. I am still struggling with my own "dirt".
Shall I be bother with it?

I boldly say "NO!"

Because I believe, the more I focus on my imperfections and my sins,
the more I will become it.

So instead , I focus my energy and thoughts on Jesus.

because Jesus' blood has made me perfect in the eyes of God.
I am so well covered that God sees me as gold...perfect and smells good.

Boy Am I so glad that I have come to know the TRUTH.
Now it has set me free!

This time I can live my life without restrictions. About myself.
About my relationships and my career.

Everything about me now is FREE!
Free from stress of what others might think of.
Free from lying symptoms of sickness..
Free from all fears of ALL FEARS!!

Sharing an mp3 from Pastor Prince that I just listened to this morning.
Enjoy peepz!

Ways to pimp up your life..

For years I was struggling with questions of
sadness, poverty and sickness.

I read on howto books, find out the why's , followed
the instructions well...but..to no avail!

It only lasted like days, weeks..

The next day, I would wake up still feeling the same ,old pathetic me again.

I tried Mind Control..read the Supermind books,etc. and even "How to be a Hero!"

lolx!

Yeah I was so trying hard back then only to make it worst.

Life was so hard on me. I even thought of death as the only escape to it.

But right now!

With Jesus around...I cannot say a word!

Everyday seems to be a new day...He lifts me up each time I am sad or bored.

He just knows what to do because He knows me well.

It's amazing! NOw , I am not so sad,lonely,or wanting a lot of stuffs just to
satisfy me anymore..I just listen to His words and songs, and that's all there's to it. Makes me happy. The perfect happiness that money or anything else in this world cannot buy.

Jesus is the only way! I am not being religious. Me , just like Jesus hates religion too. With religion, they can tell you to do this and that but with Jesus, He just wants me
to rest in Him and He does all the work. Awesome, isn't it?

Financially, I may not be there yet..But I feel I'm on the right track.
Because Jesus is guiding me.

Just great!

Thank you,Jesus! Thank you for keeping me in your side.

God didn't leave me without help

or comfort in this life.

The Lord Himself promised to give me grace in every situation.
His grace is sufficient to sustain me through every problem and trial.
And He also promised me the victory in every situation (1 Cor 15:57)

The Storm's Greatest Fury

So early in the morning..some people are stressing me here and there..left and right..my family..my friend..and my loved One!

Like a wild storm at 170mph raging at me so hard that I just wana let go and be blown by it.

Yes. It's a FACT!!

These forces are inevitable part of being human. ..part of this mad and fallen world.

But hey! I got a secret..sshhh!
My secret? Read more.


Well...
I am just sooooo glad Jesus is with me and IN ME right now...
....if not I would've gone wild and wilder than you could ever think of!!!
( see how I use the exclamation points? That's a sign that somewhere around me
is about to be blown off!!!!!)
I feel like I'm being sucked deep down...pulling every part of me ..part of my being till I couldn't breathe.. cuffs!

How my mind plays tricks on me is so pathetic! Just sucks!

I know these random and stressful thoughts that I have in me is but temporary...
....and it shall come to pass because I have the mind of Jesus..


Jesus has taught me on how to deal with all of these stuffs and this is just one part of the session.

It's strange...
...the feeling of stress
...bitterness
...sorrow has shaken my external peace but somehow..
I feel that I am not part of these feelings at all...

Just amazing!

Thank you Jesus!
With you I can conquer the world!
