Thank you Jesus for leading me effortlessly to the Truth.

...the Truth that's setting me free everyday!

Now I can rest and come boldly to You.

Even if I'm not perfect..Your blood makes me perfect..

Halleluyaaaah!

Receive By Grace Through Faith by Joseph Prince

Galatians 3:5
5Therefore He who supplies the Spirit to you and works miracles among you, does He do it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?...

Imagine that you are at a healing service. An alcoholic walks into the church reeking of alcohol. He sits behind the pianist, a nice elderly lady who has been serving in the church for 50 years. Both of them are suffering from rheumatoid arthritis. The healing power of God is present. In an instant, the alcoholic, who has never been in church before, gets healed. The pianist does not.

Most people, on hearing stories like this, would get upset and confused. They might ask, “Shouldn’t God heal this nice, old lady who has been serving Him faithfully all these years, and not that debauched drunkard?” You see, many people still believe that God heals only the deserving.

But that is not how God works. God looks at faith, not works. His power is made manifest in those who trust His goodness instead of their good behavior. So if we go back to the above example, God wants to heal both the alcoholic and the nice elderly pianist. All they need to do is to receive by grace, or unmerited favor, through faith.

You see, we cannot earn the blessings of God. We receive them by believing God’s love and grace toward us. If we receive the greatest blessing — salvation — by simply believing that Jesus did it all for us and not by working for it, what makes us think that the other lesser blessings can be obtained by our works?

So if my daughter Jessica falls sick, I don’t go to the Father and say, “Father, heal my daughter because I am Pastor Joseph Prince and I preach healing to the people.” No, I go to Him by the blood of Jesus and say, “Father, I thank You that 2,000 years ago, Jesus bore Jessica’s sickness in His body. On that basis alone and by Your grace, I pronounce her healed in Jesus’ name.”

When you simply believe that you receive your blessings based on Jesus’ finished work and by His grace alone, you will receive your blessings!

Not Terminated Anymore But Resigned (Ep2)

Sorry for the late update on this case..
Anyways, I was able to talk everything out with my colleague
and lady Boss about what really happened.
Things went back to normal in the office. We are civil, I still work hard.
I don't claim my MCs (sick leaves)..

Everyone forgave.....and hopefully forgets.

Last Thursday, my colleague talked to me as to whether I should continue
my service with them or shall I go..I actually have until yesterday to decide because now it's a Saturday. Lolx!

Sigh.

I really don't know..

I'm leaving everything to God..perhaps I will just go with the flow
Cuz I think I'm better off that way.
You know, happy go blessed...:)

Still...
(i close my eyes and pray)

Lord, please lead me the way...I need your direction now..Amen.

Sooooooo mad!!

Was stood up by some of my friends today and it made
me really furious!
Why can't they just say NO so I won't gona expect them
anymore, right?

Grrrrrrr!


Burst of emotions...yeah!
Some negative thoughts are attacking me....Telling me " look at you,
you are so bold with your faith in your God and so proud to be a
Christian and yet you're acting like that!
Do you think you deserve him when you behave like that?"

Pause.......


Arggggggggh!



Jesuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuus!!!!



I replied,
" Yes! God knows me well. He knows that from time to time I will lose my temper , be unreasonable or act a little childish or crazy. i accept that. Ok??
Jesus understands that I'm struggling with this emotion right now.
I know it's kinda heavy! And sickening ! So I know He will change this.. Not today, or tom but someday...He will take it out from me.
Because He loves me..and He doesn't want this frustrations to destroy me!

Got that?!

Like I said, I am not a perfect Christian.
I will never be a perfect Christian.
That's why I need Jesus to be my savior from this failure!

Jesuuuuuuuuuus!

Right now, Even if Im feeling a little bit mad, I say,

"Thank you Lord....for I am the Righteousness in Christ!"

Halleluyaaaaah!

Because Jesus Loves Me So...

I just love reading grace preachings in the morning.
I love it when I learnt about how much God's love keep pouring
down on me even when I don't deserve it.

It makes me feel lighter..and makes me want to pray like this...

"Jesus, thank you for loving and dying for me.
Thank you for all the blessings.
Thank you for my healing and protection.

Whatever it is that's not so good in me, like flawed behavior, attitude,
Being my hot-tempered, etc...
I am now giving it all up to you to change me...
Change me Lord...all for Your glory. Amen.


Enjoy today's devotional from Joseph Prince awesome children of God!

It's Friday! Yeheeeeeey!

The King Is Not Angry With You by Joseph Prince

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!

Why Do You Need To Accept Jesus As Your Saviour?

Let's hear it from Joseph Prince:

Accepting Jesus as your Lord and Saviour will not only save you from hell, but also give you health, joy, peace, love, hope, unconditional acceptance, favour, the power to get wealth — every good thing that you can think of and more!


...Joseph Prince forgot to mention in details -> restoration and PROTECTION!




HALLELUYAAH!


If you believe in  freewill, I think this is the right time to use if for your own good. *winkz!

I Thought God Was Mad!

For years, I wandered away from God because of wrong beliefs and teachings.
I thought He was a God who is demanding, unreasonable, wants you to this
and that ,fierce and always mad. I even thought He's the one responsible for all the earthquakes, tsunamis, wars, terrorisms, tragedies in this world.

But no. I was wrong. I was only exposed to preachers who are self-righteous and in bondage and who love to put such "label" on Him because they themselves want to overtake God. Like, it's as if they are trying to tell God what to do.
You know, those kind of preachers who think that you can only be saved by obeying the 10 Commandments. Scare you off by telling you to read the Bible everyday. Attend this fellowship twice a week, etc, etc. (pls. Dont get me wrong cuz there's nothing wrong with that IF you're gona do it only out of the dictates of your heart ; and not because of fear that God will get mad at you for not doing that. Geesh, some self-righteous preachers/pastors really think God is like them. Lolx.If you know what I mean.)

Hello! We are in a fallen world . In this world, we are meant to fail here and there. Admit it! We have mistakes simply because we are human. God sees that beforehand, and that's why the "Good News" come in to save us from this weakness. That's why Jesus came down here on earth to save us from our daily mistakes.

So we, in the eyes of God can be perfect.

So we, can reunite with God, guilt-free and when we walk here on earth guilt-free, we can then come to Him boldly as His child.

So we can appreciate Jesus' death on the cross.

So we can boldly say, Jesus has made me perfect. His sacrifice on the cross has turned my sins, as white as snow!

Yes! Only Jesus is perfect! Not you. Not me. Not even some goody-goody preachers.

That's why Jesus is called a saviour! Halleluyaaaaah!!

Now, if you're a new believer or Christian or born-again and your pastor
gives you a "todo list" to accomplish to maintain that status, if you're
comfortable with it, then do it.
But listen, if the days go by, and you start to feel weary and stress-out about your assignment, I say pray that God will lead you to the truth that can set you free so you can move on to live a Victorious life with Jesus and enjoy life here on earth while waiting for His coming.

Your good works, or your trying to be good has nothing to do with your righteousness. You are righteous because of Jesus. Period!

Me?
I don't read the Bible on a daily basis. I only open it when I'm hungry for it or needing some wisdom .I don't belong to any particular Caregroup as well. Well, for now I have tons of reasons not to. But you know what, when the holy spirit speaks and lead me to it, I'd be the first person to come running for it.

No stress. :)

Lastly, you might wana try out Joseph Prince teachings.
You can search for him in youtube or visit his site www.josephprince.org.

Joseph Prince has changed my mind; of how I look and see God.
Of why Jesus needed to die on the cross for me. All the truths in it are so lovely you'll feel like jumpin for joy forever!

Now, my running away from God has ended because I've come to know that He , indeed is a good and awesome God!

I leave you with a very beautiful devotional from Joseph Prince.

Be blessed...


"See God As A Good Father" by Joseph Prince

Luke 15:31
31“And he said to him, ‘Son, you are always with me, and all that I have is yours.

Faith is believing that we have a good God, and that He protects and provides for those who trust in Him. Remember the parable of the prodigal son? (Luke 15:11–32) Jesus shared it to illustrate how good our heavenly Father is. The wayward son had squandered his father’s inheritance before he decided to go home to ask his father to make him a hired servant.

But before he could reach home, his father saw him from afar, ran toward him and embraced him. And instead of making him a hired servant, the father turned to his servants and said, “Bring out the best robe! Get a ring and sandals for my son! Let’s kill the fatted calf and celebrate!”

Now, when the older son returned from work and heard about the celebration, he became angry and refused to enter the house. When his father came out to ask him what was wrong, the older son complained, “Look, I’ve served you all these years. Yet, you never gave me a calf to celebrate with my friends. But as soon as this prodigal son of yours comes home, you kill the fatted calf for him!”

Notice what his father told him: “Son, you are always with me and all that I have is yours. We should celebrate because your brother was dead but is alive again. He was lost but is now found.”

Can you see how the older brother perceived his father? He saw his father as a hard and stingy man. He believed that he had to work to get something good from his father. He didn’t realize that he already had an inheritance! He could have killed the fatted calf any time for a celebration!

Like the father in the parable, God has already given you an inheritance in Christ. Don’t fail to enjoy it by doubting God’s goodness or by believing that you must work for it. See your Father’s heart of love and goodness toward you, and celebrate your inheritance today!
