How To Handle Disappointments the Jesus' Way

Feel so annoyed today.

I am not sure if it's just me being so sensitive or them who keep annoying me.

I don't know.

But guess what,

God is teaching me how to handle little disappointments here and there.

C'mon let's face it.

We live in a world where there's soooo much disappointments around.

Where could you run?

Nowhere!!

Except , you can handle it wisely and use God's words against it.

You see feelings are feelings.

And the devil wants to get you by manipulating it.

So now you know.

If you are disappointed like me right now...let's read this daily devotional from Joseph Prince.

I know it's 7:08 pm here in Singapore.
I am not sure what time it is in your country right now but it doesn't matter, right?

Let's feed our soul with God's promises instead of wallowing in our disappointments.



Ready?

"Guaranteed By Covenant"
By Joseph Prince

Genesis 15:8–9
8And he said, “Lord God, how shall I know that I will inherit it?” 9So He said to him, “Bring Me a three-year-old heifer, a three-year-old female goat, a three-year-old ram, a turtledove, and a young pigeon.”

Are you discouraged because a breakthrough that you have been praying for has yet to manifest? Maybe it has been days or even weeks and you are asking, “How will I know that I will get it?” Abraham faced the same situation and asked God the same question. And God answered, “Bring Me a three-year-old heifer, a three-year-old female goat, a three-year-old ram, a turtledove, and a young pigeon.” What a strange answer!

But if you read on (Genesis 15:10–21), you will realize that God took Abraham’s question very seriously, and went on to show him just how serious He was about being his provider, protector and blesser. God was so serious that He was willing to bind Himself to a covenant.

What is a covenant? It is like a contract. Yet, it is more than a contract. A contract is binding only for a period of time, like five years or seven years, or until certain terms are fulfilled. But a covenant is perpetual. It is permanent. The only way out is through death. That is why marriage is a covenant, not a contract. It is permanent — “Till death do us part”.

In Bible times, when you cut a covenant with someone, you bring an animal, usually a ram or goat, and kill it by cutting it in two. Next, you will face your covenant partner and walk toward each other between the two pieces of the animal, passing each other in the center.

What all this means is that both parties are obligated to protect and provide for each other. Whatever belongs to you is your partner’s and whatever belongs to your partner is yours. Of course, the one who benefits is the lesser or poorer party. Today, God is in covenant with us. We are the lesser, poorer party. We have nothing to offer God. But God, the richest and most powerful being in the universe, has everything to offer us!

My friend, God has bound Himself to a covenant, an iron-clad guarantee of His blessings and provision in your life, and it is all for your benefit. The breakthrough you are waiting for is guaranteed by covenant!

Your Blessings Include Health and Renewal of Youth

100 Days of Favor by Joseph Prince
Day 68:

Father, thank You for all the blessings of provision, health, strength and renewal of youth which I can experience because of Jesus' finished work at the cross. Today, as I look to You and wait upon You, renew my youth and strength, so that I may mount up with wings like eagles. I want to run and not be weary, walk and not faint. Grant me good health all the days of my life. I want to glorify You in my body, enjoy all that You have blessed me with and be able to fulfill all Your plans and purposes for me!

God Renews My Youth Like The Eagle ( As Promised)

I need to blog this out.

I was doing my normal everyday routine like checking my emails
when I noticed blurry visions on reading a normal-sized text on my laptop, I was like saying,
this can't be happening!

I felt so uncomfortable that I kept
closing and opening my eyes to refresh my sight. But still, it was blurry!

A thought screamed at me saying, "Hey, that's normal because you're already on your 40's!"

I paused for awhile. Almost gonna get drained with that stupid thought!


I closed my eyes.

Shook my head.

And screamed in my thoughts too,

"NOOOOOOO!!!
I am
A child of God! Jesus has healed me when He took those whippings on His body! By His stripes! My vision is healed! Healing is one of my inheritance in Jesus!

And hey, I am not finished yet!

God also promised that
He renews my youth and strength
like the eagle!!

Read Isaiah 40:31

but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint.


And guess what!

After I declare all those Bible verses,
I went through flipping and opening Joseph Prince'
"100 Days Of Favor" Book.
As I always do everyday before I start to work.




And when I opened it to today's
devotional , take a look at what it says.




Hahaha!
Wooooow!
Thank You Jesus for the double confirmation!

Truly, I ONLY rely on Your Words and Promises.

Thank You Lord for renewing my youth like the eagle!

Halleluyaaaah!

Choose Not To Worry by Joseph Prince

If one can develop a habit of worrying.

Why not develop a habit of not worrying at all?

If it's that easy, I can't see any reason why you can't do the opposite.

You might say,
"It's easy for you say because
you are not in my situation. "

I say,"No one does."

And yes, you and I experience different struggles. No matter how bad or mild it is, it still can affect your health and your youth.

I know we are humans. And we can't just press the remote that says "Do Not Worry. "

Wish we have that to our disposal right? But sadly, welcome to the real world. You are not in Adam Sandler's "Click" movie.


But guess what,
Because you believed in Jesus,
you are different now!

You can choose NOT TO WORRY!

Why?

Because Jesus wants you to.

Jesus is your rest.

Jesus is your savior, restorer, blesser, provider, healer and protector.

Woooow! What a wonderful Savior!

Such a good news, right??




Below is one of Joseph Prince
daily devotionals.

May you be blessed with it.

Enjoy.

And Shalom...😊😊😊😊

Choose Not To Worry
By Joseph Prince

Matthew 6:27
27Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?

Many Christians are familiar with Jesus’ rhetorical question, “Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?” But not many of us actually let it get into our hearts and allow the love of God to free us from our habit of worrying.

The truth is, no amount of worrying can lengthen your life or add anything to your physical person. Instead, worrying robs you of sleep, health and many good years. In fact, it is only when you are worry-free that God’s anointing flows freely in you, strengthening, healing, restoring and adding to you.

A church member, after undergoing a mammogram, found that she had lumps in her breast. Upon receiving the doctor’s report, she wrote this down on the report: “Jesus is my healer. I receive my healing. I am healed. I rest in God completely.”

She was due back at the clinic later the same day for a biopsy to see if the lumps were malignant. Her sister-in-law, who was having lunch with her that day, witnessed her cheerful and worry-free attitude while she ate her lunch.

Back at the clinic, this precious sister sat among other ladies who were also there for their biopsies. They looked very worried, so she started sharing Jesus with them and prayed for some of them. When her turn came and she had an ultrasound scan done, the doctor was puzzled — her scan showed no evidence of any lumps!

The doctor went back to consult her colleague who had first discovered the lumps. Stunned, both doctors conducted their own investigations. They returned to her only to say, “It’s a miracle!”

My friend, when you worry, you are actually believing that the devil has the power to make inroads into your life that God cannot protect you from. But when you refuse to worry, you are putting your faith in God. You have more confidence in His love and power working for you than in the devil’s ability to harm you! When you refuse to worry, but choose to rest in the finished work of Christ, you will see the manifestation of your blessing. You will see your miracle!

Declare This Today

I am cool with Jesus

This is so true.

You know, before I accepted

Jesus as my savior, there were

alot of times that I feel God is not

blessing me at all. Then, that feeling would lead to a bad mood and leave a mark of self-unworthliness. I felt God didn't love me enough maybe because I have done something bad or not worthy in His eyes.

But you know what,

I was so wrong !!!!

After I accepted and learnt the truth about Jesus as my savior,
Everything changed.

The truth that God actually sent His only Son, Jesus to save me from hell. What Jesus did at the cross was the truth that forever changed my life.

Everything Jesus did was for me.
Jesus didn't only save me from hell
But He also healed me!

By His stripes, I was healed!
Isaiah 53:5




As Jesus is, so am I in this world.

God also promised divine protection in the Bible...

Read Psalm 91.

And God wants me to rest in everything. Free of worries..assuring me that He truly loves me thru Psalm 23.

See!

Those are just one of the few verses in the Bible that has set me free.

God wrote it in the Bible so you and I who believes in Him can take a look and read it as a reminder for us. Because we believers can be very forgetful.

Yes, as humans we want alot of stuff. You need this. You want that. It's ok. And that's normal.

But let me highlight to you
that as we go live each day in this world, none of those will make us feel complete and joyful.

Only Jesus' can make us feel complete. Inside and out.

If you feel complete with Jesus in your life. You will grow or live to be an effortlessly, happy and joyful person. Then, that's the time that you get to appreciate everything around you. Even in the midst of your problems, you'd still appreciate everything.


Look at me!
My life is not perfect ....
But with Jesus around in my life,
I feel everything is perfect.
Inspite of some problems here and there, it doesn't matter at all.
Because I know Jesus won't never leave or forsake me

You know, that "feeling"...
I cannot explain that.
You only need to experience it by yourself.

And definitely I can tell you.


It's awesome!!!

Thank You Jesus!

So I say to you now,
If you have start to build a relationship with Jesus...
Stick with it. You are DEFINITELY on the right track!

Keep talking to Him. Everyday of your life.

If the devil talks you out of negativities in life and in your situation..( that's what he is good at) talk it out to Jesus ! Because in Jesus' name, the devil shall flee!!!

Halleluyah!

Till on my next thoughts my dear friends.

Happy New Year!!!!!

Feed Your Soul With Good Stuff

This is a famous Filipino food called "daing".
I had this for dinner last night
and it was sooooooo yummy!
I was so full and thank Jesus for blessing me with this kind of food
even if I am here in Singapore.


While I was enjoying my dinner,
some revelations popped up and in my heart I knew right there and then that I needed to blog this out.

You see, as human beings
Food is a necessity.
We eat good food. Explore new foods and even experiment with it.
We try as much to our heart's content to really enjoy life with it.
Seek it. Google some new recipes. And create it.

It's fun right?

Yes. Food to our stomach and to our health is good.

And this made me think.

If we as humans would take a lot of effort feeding our stomach,
why can't we do that to our spirit as well.

You see, our thoughts are driven by our spirit and mind.
Whatever we feed on our mind or brain, we get full benefit of it.

You read a good book of romance,
Suddenly, you get to be so romantic and wanting to hug your loved ones for awhile.
If you read something about wars, violence , news, deaths...

You will feel sad and then fearful
and depressed.

You read books about success,
You get energised and inspired.

Am I right?

😊😊
( you can just smile)

Cuz I've been through all that.

But you know what,
It's ok to read all kinds of stuff to get informed. But be careful..something bad that you read today might affect your health tomorrow.

That's why here in my blog,
I only want you to read feel-good stuff.

The world is weary, noisy and in chaos already...so let me be a breaker for that.

Let me share with you some of the things that I am reading before I start off my day.

Because these things that I have read, have blessed me. And I am 100% sure, this will bless you too.

Sharing one of Jesus Calling For Kids iphone/ipad app devotional...

Are you ready?


"Clearing the Clutter"

Seek the Kingdom of God above all else, and live righteously, and he will give you everything you need.
—Matthew 6:33 (NLT)

Do not be overwhelmed by the clutter in your life. By “clutter,” I’m not just talking about all that stuff under your bed. I’m including all those endless little chores that you need to do sometime, but not necessarily now. For instance, you told your friend you would download that song for her. And your bike tires really need airing up.

All those little tasks will eat up as much time as you give them. So, instead of trying to do everything at once, choose the chores that really need to be done today. Then let the rest of them slip to the back of your mind, so that I can be in the front of it.

Remember, your real goal in this life is not to check everything off a to-do list. It is to live close to Me. Seek My Face all throughout this day. Let My Presence clear away the clutter in your mind, and flood you with My Peace.

- Jesus
