Confessing Your Righteousness Pleases God

How far can you go when you fail?
Do you divert your attention and party?

Ask for God's forgiveness or lock youself in your room
and contemplate?

Whenever these things strike you.
I have learned, it's how you deal with the situation
that matters the most.

You have a free choice.
Maybe you can just shrug your shoulders off and move on.
Pray intently so you'll receive God's wisdom.
Drink beer.
Take a walk.
Talk it out with a friend.

So many things to do actually.


But


Me?

I know I am not perfect because my bad circumstances
are always there to remind me of how life here on earth
is so messed up.

What do I do everytime I messed it all up over and over again?

I just keep saying ...

" I am the righteousness of God in Christ..."

It gives me a very refreshing feeling.

Everytime I feel I am so bad, judgmental, very impatient with things
and some people, frustrated on some thing and all..

that verse lifts me up each time I fall..

Nobody can truly love us for who and what we are except God.

Thru Jesus' blood we have become so perfect inspite of all our imperfections.

Isn't that a good news???!

I will just keep praising Him because of what He has done for you and me.

I am forever grateful ...and everyday, each time I fail and commit mistakes

I can say boldy,

"I am the Righteousness of God in Christ!"

Confessing Your Righteousness Pleases God


Romans 10:6
6... the righteousness of faith speaks...

Every time you confess, “I am the righteousness of God in Christ”, God the Father is pleased. When you confess that you are the righteousness of God in Christ, it reminds Him of what His Son has done for you to become righteous.

Also, by making you righteous, God is showing Himself righteous — “to demonstrate at the present time His righteousness, that He might be just and the justifier of the one who has faith in Jesus”. (Romans 3:26)

Each time Jesus hears you confess, “I am the righteousness of God in Christ,” it brings much pleasure to His heart too, because you are laying hold of what He suffered and died to give you.

The Holy Spirit, who now indwells you to convict you of righteousness (John 16:10), also rejoices when you confess, “I am the righteousness of God in Christ.” He is pleased when you flow with Him.

The delight of the Godhead is not the only thing you gain when you declare, “I am the righteousness of God in Christ.” The Bible tells us that when you “seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness… all these things shall be added to you”. (Matthew 6:33)

Whether it is food, clothing or other necessities in life, “all these things” will be added to you. They will not just be given to you, but added to you as your inheritance when you seek first His righteousness.

You don’t need to use your faith for every single need in life. You just need to use your faith for one thing — to believe that you are the righteousness of God in Christ, and it will cause all the blessings you seek to come after you and overtake you!

God Is Not Like Our Parents

When I was a kid, my mama had this habit of using God to correct my
behavior.
She would say, "If you do this bad thing again, God will punish you! And He will
send you to hell! But if you are good, He will reward you."

Those words had kept me fearful for years in my life,
thinking that God is really fierce.

I tried to fix myself, read articles/ books on how to improve my whole being,
went to church with that reasons but to no avail...

I ended up staying away from Him for sooooooo long!
(Yes. wasted years.)

Little did I know, that I judged God wrongly.
I felt He is like my parents who everytime I committed mistakes and
acted badly He would whip me out of my confusions and reprimand me.

Somehow it affected me spiritually.
and living thinking that we have a very fierce God was not so
healthy for me.

TODAY!!!

I have come to know the TRUTH that God is not the way I thought He is.

He loves me..

He loves you..

..and that's even if you sin or not..

and everyone of us in this world!

The proof?

Because He gave up His son , Jesus Christ for us to be our sacrifice.

That even if we sin or fail in our lives, He can still see us righteous
through Jesus!

Jesus has become our shield.

Can I not rest in this assurance that God has given to us?

Of course now I can fully rest!

Now, I am free!!

“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son,
that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.”
(John 3:16)

The King Is Not Angry With You


Proverbs 19:12
12The king’s wrath is like the roaring of a lion, but his favor is like dew on the grass.

The Bible tells us that the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour. (1 Peter 5:8) But have you ever wondered why he acts like a roaring lion?

It has something to do with a lion’s roar. In the Bible, the roaring of a lion speaks of the king’s wrath — “The king’s wrath is like the roaring of a lion”. So when the devil walks about like a roaring lion, he is trying to give you the impression that the King is angry with you. And when you believe that God is angry with you, the devil knows that he has got you.

When you think that God is angry or displeased with you, you will not be confident of His love toward you. Instead, you will expect and fear punishment from Him. And you will want to stay away from Him because you do not wish to incur His wrath any further.

But the truth is that God is not angry with you, even when you fail or blow it, because all your sins have already been judged in the body of His Son at the cross. As the Lamb of God, Jesus became your burnt offering. That is why He said, “I thirst.” (John 19:28)

Those who heard Him say that at Calvary that day thought that His thirst was physical. Actually, His thirst was spiritual because He was being “burnt” by the fire of God’s wrath. He was being judged for our sins. His body exhausted all of God’s wrath until every claim of God’s holiness was satisfied and His wrath appeased!

Now, there is a law called “the law of double jeopardy”, which states that the same crime cannot be tried twice. Today, the fire of God’s wrath will never fall on you as a believer because it has already fallen on His Son at the cross. He judged your sins then, but in the body of His Son.

So right now, you are not under the King’s wrath but His favor. And His favor rains down on you like dew on the grass every morning!

111111111 x 111111111 = 12345678987654321


Now, take a look at this...


101%

From a strictly mathematical viewpoint:


What Equals 100%?
What does it mean to give MORE than 100%?

Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%?

We have all been in situations where someone wants you to
GIVE OVER 100%.

How about ACHIEVING 101%?


What equals 100% in life?


Here's a little mathematical formula that might help answer these questions:


If:

A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z

Is represented as:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26.


If:


H-A-R-D-W-O- R- K

8+1+18+4+23+ 15+18+11 = 98%

And:

K-N-O-W-L-E- D-G-E

11+14+15+23+ 12+5+4+7+ 5 = 96%


But:

A-T-T-I-T-U- D-E

1+20+20+9+20+ 21+4+5 = 100%


THEN, look how far the love of God will take you:


L-O-V-E-O-F- G-O-D

12+15+22+5+15+ 6+7+15+4 = 101%


Therefore, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that:

While Hard Work and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will
get you there, It's the Love of God that will put you over the top!

Redeemed From Every Type Of Sickness


Galatians 3:13
13Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us (for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree”),

The One who cleansed lepers, opened blind eyes and made the lame to walk took your sins, sicknesses and every curse when He hung on Calvary’s tree. The curses that were meant for you because of your sins fell on Him instead. He was cursed in your place to redeem you from every curse that comes as a result of breaking God’s laws.

What are these curses? They are listed in Deuteronomy 28. It is a long and detailed list. Don’t get frightened when you read the curses, but rejoice because Christ has redeemed you from every single one of them, including those curses of sicknesses!

Are you stricken with tuberculosis, fever or inflammation? (Deuteronomy 28:22) Christ has redeemed you from every one of these conditions!

Do you have painful boils, tumors or an itch which doctors say cannot be healed? (Deuteronomy 28:27) Christ has redeemed you from every one of these conditions!

Perhaps yours is a serious and prolonged sickness. (Deuteronomy 28:59) It doesn’t matter. Christ has redeemed you from every prolonged sickness!

“Well, Pastor Prince, you have covered tuberculosis, fever, itch… but what about my disease? It is not covered in Deuteronomy 28. Did Jesus forget my disease?”

No, His work is perfect! Look at Deuteronomy 28:61: “Also every sickness and every plague, which is not written in this Book of the Law, will the Lord bring upon you until you are destroyed.” That covers everything. So if Christ has redeemed you from this curse, then He has redeemed you from every type of sickness! I don’t care what new type of sickness the world discovers because Christ has redeemed us from every type of sickness!

Now, if you have a particular sickness, say, “This (name the sickness) is part of the curse of the law. But Galatians 3:13 says that Christ has redeemed me from the curse of the law. Therefore, I have been redeemed from (name the sickness)!” Believe and confess that every day, and as surely as Jesus took every curse of sickness, your healing will break forth!

The Secret of Deliverance From Self

You are alone.
Sitting on a chair.
Then you are in the mood to think...
...think a lot of things.
You think about your present condition, your past.
..Of what might have been or what might have become.

You delve into your past.
Past mistakes.
Past moves...actions.
Past hurt.
Past failures.

Your present...the Now..stands before you.
You're facing it.

You want to control it.
Manipulate it so everything will become perfect and conforms
to your expectation about how to really be happy and contented in life.


Then your future comes.

You start to get scared and so stress out.

You panic.

Everything seems getting out of hand.

You lose control!

You didn't expect you'd lose control!

Then ..

Baaaaaaaaam!!!


Everything turns to black.

You're on a dead end..

You got nowhere to go.

You lost your friends, job, family's respect ...

you lost everything about you.





Painful, isn't it?


See, how painful, depressing, frustrating it is to just focus on YOU.

You can die of heart attak just soaking in yourself!


I used to feel that way.

But now,

I am glad JESUS has set me free!

Sometimes, I still think of how a pathetic failure I have become.
When it comes to my finances, career, family and relationships...

I sucked big time!


But now, I switched my mind.

Instead of looking at the mirror watching myself in pain,,,

I now focus to Jesus ...on the cross.

It's just soooo beautiful!!

I'd still get to praise Him even when I'm in deep trouble.

Sharing a very powerful mp3 from Pastor Joseph Prince to get you thru the day.

Enjoy my friends and may the revelations in this mp3 will change
the way you think !

The Secret of Deliverance From Self

Let God Love You Instead

I used to try loving God with my own strength
that I persistently thought of ways on how I might be able to impress Him.

I tried to be good by doing good things.

Restrained doing the things which I considered "bad".

Did this. Did that.

Judging my thoughts, actions and bad situations
made me conclude that I was really a not-so-lovable person.

There came a point that I started doubting if God would still
love me as who and what I am. Because it was just me.
That was me.
And at that moment in time, there was really nothing I could do
to change myself in an instant.

To add up to my confusions and depression,

I encountered some Christian teachings trying
to heal you but ends up always pointing a finger at you,
trying to control you with their so-called
holy and just preachings and at the end of the day, instead of
feeling the love of God and peace within you always end up spiritually
and emotionally battered ...
They were there barking at you once they think you're on the wrong side
of their so-called "holiness".

Unconsciously, I was so focused on a "how-to-be-good" attitude cycle
that everytime I failed and committed mistakes again,
it gave me a lot of stress and frustrations.

Wooooaaaaah!

I am just human.

And I can never be perfect in this world!

If I keep focusing on my failures and mistakes,
it will be an endless feat.

We can never rely on our strength if we want to love God.

For human feelings are inconsistent. God is not.

Jesus is not. He is the same, today , tomorrow and forever!

How to love God and impress Him?

I just keep hearing His Words...

..and nothing else.


Sharing another powerful message to make your day, my friends.

And thank you for following on my blog to hear me out.

Let God Love You Instead


1 John 4:10
10In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.

"You have to love God more! You must have more passion for God!” You have probably heard this type of preaching and may have even tried your best to love God, only to fail miserably.

But what is the true definition of love? Let the Bible define it for us: “… this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us…” Yes, it is not about our love for Him, but His love for us!

“Pastor Prince, the Bible says that you must love God with all your heart, soul and strength!”

Yes, that is true according to the law (Deuteronomy 6:5), and even Jesus taught that as the great commandment when He walked on earth. (Matthew 22:37) But that was before He died on the cross. At the cross, He became the very fulfillment of this law for us when He loved us with all His heart, soul and strength, by laying down His body and life on the cross for us.

Today, we are no longer under the law but under grace. And grace tells us that God loves us, not that we love God. Yet, we will love Him when we see how much He loves us. The Bible says that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us! (Romans 5:8) That’s how much He loves us!

Beloved, God has seen you trying your best to love Him. And because He loves you, He wants you to sit down and be still, and let Him love you instead. He wants to love you with all that He is and all that He has. He loves you unconditionally regardless of who you are or what you have done because His love is not dependent on you but on Himself. He will never stop loving you.

So let God love you today. Don’t worry about loving Him. The more of His love you receive, the more you will fall in love with Him!

You Are Complete In Christ

You Are Complete In Christ


Colossians 2:10
10and you are complete in Him, who is the head of all principality and power.

When you look at yourself, what do you see? Do you see someone who is imperfect and lacking in many areas, or someone who is whole and complete in Christ?

There are believers who see themselves as incomplete. This is because they are conscious of their lack and imperfections. They say, “There are so many things imperfect about me! How can I be complete if there are so many things I am lacking in?” They see their weaknesses, condemn themselves and feel inferior to others.

The good news is that God does not see the way man sees. Man sees the flesh. God sees the spirit. He sees us already complete in Christ. In spite of our imperfections, He sees us as new creations, partakers of His divine nature and more than conquerors over our faults. And He wants us to see ourselves the way He sees us.

What we think we need or are lacking in, whether it is godly character traits or physical health, we already have in Christ.

I used to think that I had to ask God to make me more patient, until I realized one day that Jesus is my patience. Since then, I no longer ask God to make me wiser either, because Jesus is my wisdom. (1 Corinthians 1:30) I am not waiting to receive more healing because Jesus is my complete healing at this moment. And I am not yearning for peace and rest one day because Jesus is my peace and rest today. Right now, I have everything because I stand complete in Christ!

My friend, you are not going to be complete in Christ some day — you are already complete in Christ! And what remains for you to do is to walk daily in that completeness by believing that it is true and confessing that what you need right now, Jesus is to you. He is your complete forgiveness, complete righteousness, complete favor and complete protection.

So don’t focus on the lack you see in your life. Focus instead on how in Christ, you are complete in everything at this moment. And instead of weaknesses, lack and defects, you will see His strength, wholeness, soundness and completeness manifesting in you!
