For me, there are three types of Christians.
Those who ask you to receive Jesus so you can be saved and then
give you alot of "Todolist" to maintain that status and scares and stress you out later on.
(Christians under law)
Second, there are struggling Christians who believe that God have not provided them anything yet so they keep bugging Him, by praying all day, asking this and that, pleading, begging as if God is a very "hard-to-get" , selfish or just playing as "God" because He is a god..Wondering, wanderin...
(Unbelieving Believers)
Third, there are Christians who believe in the finished work of Jesus.
That through Jesus sacrificed on the cross, they live a very healthy, more meaningful, exciting life because of God's promise of protection against deadly diseases, tsunamis, divine health, prosperity and restoration. (Pls. read Psalm91).
(Christians under Grace)
Me? Of course I go for the third category.
“In Him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God’s grace” (Ephesians 1:7)
Life these days is complicated enough to confuse or mix it with other peoples beliefs. No more time arguing.
I want to rest.
Someone else's reasoning or intellect might go against this flow. Other's will say amen to you... But you know what, these stuffs don't matter to me anymore.
I just want to rest in Jesus.
I wana praise Him because my spirit tells me to praise Him and not because of anything else.
I praise Him because while I was a sinner,
He thought of me at the cross ....and died for me so I can be free!
So I can live a guilt-free life...
With this Truth that I learnt, man! I tell you-- this has set me free!
This is what I call Victory!
Imagine, my God gave up His only Son for me as a sacrificed for my sins
so I could be reunited with Him?? What an amazing move!
So now, why would I ever doubt if He's gona give me the other little stuffs that really don't matter like food, clothing, money, etc.
Right?
Now I can come boldly to God because of Jesus' finished work!
No more buts ,what ifs, how comes or whys?
Jesus is my rest.
And in this rest, everything shall follow.
Halleluyaaaaaaaah!

God is with you through His word.
When feeling a bit discourage about what's going in your life ...
Losing faith and all.
Don't struggle.
Take out your earphones, mp3 players, laptop. Ipods and listen to worship songs or awesome Grace preachers like Joseph Prince, Andrew Wammock, Kenneth Hagin Jr and many more!
This will surely lift you up.
Know that God is with you all the way through His words.
Happy blessed Sunday everyone!
"So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God. "
Romans 10:17
Halleluyaaaah!!!

Let's twit for JESUS!
Let's twit for JESUS!
Religion may say "Go & sin no more, then you will not be condemned". But Jesus had it backwards by saying "I do not condemn you, go & sin no more". That is Grace! So I'll say it again... "You just lost your temper, stumbled, made a mistake but you're still righteous, you're still loved by your Father, you're still His son/daughter, He still sees you holy & blemish free because of what His son Jesus did for you at d cross. So now, get up! You are not condemned! Go & sin no more!

Jesus' Truth Sets Me Free
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!

Just as when my thoughts were trying to bring me down
because of my bad temper today. This beautiful verse popped out in my twitter feed.
"We don't reduce Christ to what we are; He raises us to what He is. "
- 1 Corinthians 10:17
Wooooow! Thank you Lord!
Thank you for accepting me as what I am..
Now I can shout
Halleluyaaaaaah again...
one more time please....
Halleluyaaaaah ! wooohooooooo!
That's my Lord!

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!
