Thank you Jesus for Restoring My Soul!

You know what?
It really makes a difference when you get to know who our God truly is.

Few years back before knowing the Truth, I was restless, stressed-out and was in a state of a limbo that having Peace was like dreaming in a wonderland.

I thought God was very hard to pleased. That you need to do a lot of "good" stuffs and be really good in His eyes before we could get favour from Him. (just like our dad or parents)

I struggled in that wrong thought and belief. And I didn't enjoy living well. Because in my mind, I said, "Gosh, in this world, you need to please a lot of people, and plus God??". (lolx)

I chewed on that bad teaching for years which made my life miserable! Haaaah!

But now, everything is different.

I have come to know who God really is and what His heart longs for me.

He only wants me to have a good future.



So I can rest in and enjoy His love.
No more struggling asking,

"Is my wish going to come true?"

"Is my future going to be good?"

"am I worth to get good things from Him??"

Hey! God has already said it in

Jeremiah 29:11

He indeed plans to prosper and NOT HARM ME!

He plans to give me a good future!

So the same promise goes with you too my beloved.

Just stay with Jesus!
Because you are in the right track!

Don't worry if for now, everything looks blurry, complicated,on a haywire, and if you feel your faith is shaking here and there.
These are only temporary.

One day, you will just laugh at these events in your life and smile. :)

You'd shout for joy , repeating these words...

"God is awesome!
God is good!"

Trust me.

Because "been there, done that!"

:)

Thank you Jesus for restoring my Soul!

How Tender Is God’s Heart Toward You by Joseph Prince

How Tender Is God’s Heart Toward You by Joseph Prince

Ephesians 2:7
7that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.

Have you ever blown things out of proportion and gotten angry with God when you were going through a trying time? This happened to Jesus’ disciples when a storm hit them hard. In their fear of drowning, they cried out to Jesus, who was getting some much-needed sleep in the boat, “Teacher, do You not care that we are perishing?” (Mark 4:38)

For accusing Him of not caring, you would think that they received a rebuke from Jesus. But it was the wind which received His rebuke, and a great calm followed. (Mark 4:39) Because of His tenderness toward His own, Jesus did not waste time taking offence. Instead, He wasted no time taking care of the problem that had caused His disciples so much anxiety and fear.

This also happened to two sisters, Martha and Mary, who did not hesitate to let Jesus know how they felt when He finally showed up days after their brother Lazarus had died. Both sisters made the same remark to Him: “Lord, if You had been here, my brother would not have died.” (John 11:21, 32)

Both sisters had seen Jesus’ miracles of mercy and love. Now, in their grief, they focused on how He could have prevented their brother’s death, but did not. They did not know His heart — how tender it was toward them and how His help would never fail them, but would even extend to raising their dead brother. (John 11:41–44)

Beloved, your heavenly Father sees you trying to stay afloat when you are in the midst of a storm. He sees you trying to provide for yourself and your family, and thinking, “If I don’t take care of these things, no one else will!” And He wants you to know how tender His heart is toward you, how He is not offended by all the bad things you have ever said of or to Him. He wants you to know how much He wants to and will help and bless you. So let go and experience afresh the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward you!

Blessed In More Ways Than One by Joseph Prince

Blessed In More Ways Than One by Joseph Prince

Romans 5:1
1Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ,

We are not trying to get peace with God. We already have peace with God, having been justified by faith through our Lord Jesus Christ. This peace with God brings us the peace of God, which guards our hearts and minds. (Philippians 4:7) Then, the peace of God inside us will also translate into the peace of God outside us — in all our outward circumstances.

Firstly, we will find that what would normally cause us much care and anxiety will no longer be the case. Secondly, not only will everything turn out well, but we will also be blessed in more ways than one. This is what happens when Jesus, the Prince of Peace, is our peace.

A church member, though stricken with cancer, enjoyed the peace of God, knowing that He was her healer. She later received confirmation from two different doctors that she had been completely healed of cancer. In addition to receiving her blessing of complete healing, she also received from her insurance company a critical illness claim of S$50,000!

Another church member, upon hearing news of her retrenchment, committed the matter to God, believing that He would work all things out for her, especially her loss of a regular income. Shortly after, she received her retrenchment package — a substantial five-figure sum. And within days of her retrenchment, she received calls from her contacts in the industry, offering her jobs, two of which were jobs in well-known multinational corporations (MNCs).

At that time, she had not yet started looking for a job, so the calls were unexpected but welcomed. She finally opted to work for one of the MNCs — a dream come true for her — at a salary that was 30 per cent more than her previous one! When she simply prayed, “Abba Father, I trust You to look after me,” and rested in His love and peace, she was abundantly blessed.

Beloved, because Jesus is your peace, you are blessed in more ways than one. Your soul will prosper. Your health will prosper. Your finances will prosper. Your loved ones will be taken care of. Your relationships will flourish. You will enjoy the favor of God. All because you have the Prince of Peace!

I Forgive by Faith and not through my feelings....

Thank you for this devotional today my Lord. Now I know at least how to forgive.
I forgive by Faith not through my feelings. In Jesus mighty name Amen!


Forgive And Let God Do The Rest by Joseph Prince

Ephesians 4:32
32And be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God in Christ forgave you.

People like to say, “I can forgive, but I cannot forget.” Have you heard that before? Now, in the first place, nowhere in the Bible does God tell you to forgive and then to forget. It is not in the Bible! The devil is adding something here to make the whole thing burdensome.

God only tells us to forgive because God in Christ has forgiven us a debt we cannot pay. When we do this, we do ourselves a favor because harboring bitterness and unforgiveness can sometimes destroy our health!

So just forgive and let God take care of the rest. When you really forgive, sometimes, He makes you forget. But sometimes, you still remember the incident because it was a major thing in your life. Yet, when you look back at it, the pain is no more there. The sting is gone and you are not bitter.

Joseph had forgiven his brothers before they came and bowed before him. He remembered what they did to him, but he did not remember it with bitterness. (Genesis 50:15–21) So you may remember the incident, but the bitterness is gone because you have put the cross in the picture — “God in Christ forgave me. Daddy, I forgive you. Mama, I forgive you. My cousin, I forgive you.”

When you forgive, forgive by faith, not by your feelings. We walk by faith, not feelings. (2 Corinthians 5:7) Some people are waiting for feelings — “I am waiting, Father, for the right emotion to come on me to forgive that person.” That “right emotion” may never come!

No, forgive by faith, and do it once and for all. Spend time in prayer. Take out your diary and write it down: “Father, I bring this person before you. You know what he did to me. Father, as You forgave me through Jesus’ cross, even though I did not deserve it, by faith, I now forgive this person and I let my anger against him go in Jesus’ name. Amen!”

Once you forgive by faith, you will see the sting of bitterness removed from your heart. You will experience the peace and joy of God filling your mind, and see a greater measure of wholeness in your body!

God's love for you is forever!

It's rainy sunday here in Singapore and you know what,
I've realized, all things in this world change.

Weather has its season.
People change. Friendship and relationship fails. World economy has its ups and downs. Your mind change.

I've learnt there's only one thing that never changed.

Guess what.

.....pause.


It's God's love for you.

How am I so sure of it?

Just look at the cross.

God gave up His only Beloved Son, Jesus so you and I can be saved.
So we can enjoy His love, protection, healing, restoration and blessings forever.

His death has become our LIFE. And forever, we are reunited with Him because of Jesus!

Amazing, right?

I can only say,

Halleluyaaaaaah!

God wants you to know....

.. that you are a human being, not a human doing. 
Take time to just be, to breathe slowly, to feel your body that is the temple of your soul. No activities, no worries, no buzzing.


From : God Wants You To Know app in Facebook.

Psalm 23 for the work place.

A must read....
