God Can Turn Your Evil Day Into Good Days

God Can Turn Your Evil Day Into Good Days

Esther 9:22
22… rest from their enemies… sorrow to joy… mourning to a holiday…

Today, many Jews still celebrate the feast of Purim. The name Purim is derived from “the lot” which a Gentile, Haman, cast concerning the fate of the Jews when they were in Persia under King Ahasuerus.

Haman, the villain in this story in the book of Esther, hated the Jews and sought to exterminate them. He got King Ahasuerus to allow him to issue a decree to annihilate all the Jews in one day — the thirteenth day of the twelfth month of Adar. But God used Queen Esther and her uncle Mordecai, both Jews, to turn the tables on Haman and save the Jews.

Haman was hanged on the very gallows that he had constructed for Mordecai! Then, the king allowed Queen Esther and Mordecai to issue a counter-decree to allow all the Jews to defend themselves and destroy their enemies in one day — the thirteenth day of the twelfth month of Adar!

So instead of the Jews being exterminated on that fateful day, their enemies were destroyed! God turned an evil day for the Jews into good days. He turned their mourning into rejoicing and gave them victory over their enemies.

My friend, God can do the same for you today. He only wants you to remain in your position of rest in Christ. You see, because of Jesus’ finished work at the cross, you are seated in heavenly places in Christ, far above every principality, and evil assault the devil can throw at you. (Ephesians 2:6) Just as Mordecai sat within the king’s gate, and refused to stand up and bow to Haman, let’s not “bow” to the devil by being persuaded to move from our position of rest in Christ. Don’t allow him to get you worried, frantic and doing things to save yourself.

Queen Esther was also in a position of rest before Haman was executed. (Esther 7) She was seated on a couch as Haman pleaded with her for his life. While doing so, he accidentally fell over the couch where the queen was. The king, thinking that Haman was assaulting his queen, sent him to the gallows!

Beloved, remain at rest in Christ’s finished work, and He will turn your evil day into days of rejoicing and feasting!

Beautiful JESUS
Selfless and secure
that's how
i want to live my whole life
not live in a lie... See More

the gravity of the tv and the magazine
you wouldnt want me to be danced
by another man

You make me beautiful
Be nobody else's fool

i see your reflection with the symmetry
of a woman with a man
i want to be romanced

with you in a state of vertigo
i can keep my eyes open while you
cast my fears aside

In times like these..

in a bad mood?

what do you do?

Me?

I read stuffs that reveals more about Jesus' love for me
so I will feel good.

So now I'm sharing this with you.
Be bless in any way.


"No one can hoodwink you into believing that sicknesses and diseases
are sent by God to teach you character and humility, when you know
beyond the shadow of a doubt that Jesus came to give you abundant life,
and took upon His own body all your sicknesses, pains and infirmities at the cross."


Source: Unmerited Favor by Joseph Prince

...more to come...


"While Jesus is in the Old Testament concealed, He is in the New Testament revealed.
The stronger your foundation in the new covenant is, the more you will be able to see
Jesus unveiled in the Old Testament."


"Today, all the righteous requirements of the law are fulfilled in your life through JESUS!!"

"The law is designed to expose all your deficiencies, but grace (unmerited favor) points you to your
sufficiency in Christ."

"The law demands from man, but grace (unmerited favor) imparts to man."

The law puts the burden on you to perform, while grace (unmerited favor) puts
the the burden on Christ's performance."

"The law tells you that you have failed, but grace (unmerited favor) shows you how you
are more than a conqueror in Christ."

Something to Smile about...

Well, at least I have something to smile about today.
Just learnt my google adsense has reached $100+ .wooot!
saving up for my own website to come.
more..more..more!
Keep 'em coming!


Thank you Jesus!!

There are times when

I feel so irrational, immature and silly.. Like at this moment.

Something really pissed me off and I know I can explode anytime with so much anger.

But no.. It's just my thoughts and feelings.
And I know Holy spirit wont leave me hanging in times like these.

I am just human.

I fail.

I get mad.

Sometimes I'm not in the mood.
That's normal, right?


Right now, I switched my phone to airplane mode so my friends wouldn't be able call me.
Because
sometimes I wana be alone.

Well,
that's me!

I don't want or don't need to struggle to change when at this moment, I am just being me!
If you can't understand that someone else will have to.


Breathe in.

Breathe out.


Pause.


Relax....



You know what,

I'm just glad even if I'm like this I know there's someone up above who loves me sooooo no matter what.
Who just keeps His silent when I get mad and yet still holding unto me..comforting me. Not nagging me.

And that's Jesus.

Right now, I don't long for His presence. But I'm assured He is just there ready to hug me..

Jesus, whatever I'm going through right now, pls bless me with your wisdom.

I need tons of it right now.

Thank you.

Amen!

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!
