I Did It All For You - Jesus
I Did It All for You
Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.”
—Matthew 28:18
I am all-powerful. All of heaven and earth is at My command. And yet . . .
I gave up all the glory and perfection of heaven to come to earth as a baby—for you. I grew up here, in the dust and sin of this world—for you. I allowed Myself to be beaten and then cruelly killed on a cross—for you. I rose from the grave and defeated death and the devil—for you. I did it all for you, so that you could be forgiven of your sins and live forever with Me.
I gave everything for you. Don’t hold back anything from Me. Bring Me your secret thoughts, your problems, and most of all, your heart. Come to Me with a thankful heart—ready to learn and be changed.

God’s Favor Comes Through Faith Righteousness by Joseph Prince
…not having my own righteousness, which is from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith.
Philippians 3:9
God’s Favor Comes Through
Faith Righteousness by Joseph Prince
I believe that the more righteousness-conscious you are, the more you will experience God’s unmerited favor. When the voice of disqualification comes to remind you of all the areas that you have fallen short in, that’s the time to turn to Jesus who qualifies you and hear His voice.
This is the true fight of faith! The fight of faith is to fight to believe that you are made righteous by faith and not by works. What do you want to depend on when push comes to shove—your wavering righteousness based on works, or the perfect, rock-solid righteousness of Jesus based on faith? It is your faith in the righteousness of Jesus that gives you the right to God’s unmerited favor.
Today, because of what Jesus did on the cross, you can expect good things to happen to you. You can ask God for big things and reach out to the blessed destiny that He has for you and your family. His righteousness is your right to God’s unmerited favor. Don’t let any voice of accusation tell you otherwise!

God is Blessing You BIG Time
God is blessing you not because of the good things that you did
but because of what Jesus has done at the cross.
God is not like us. Or our boss that if we did something awesome for the company,
our boss will surely love and reward us.
No.
Even if you fail Him and even if you think that you disappoint Him.
He is still blessing you.
because God is no longer looking at what you do…
He is looking at Jesus.
You are clothed by Jesus' righteousness.
You are covered by His blood
that right now, even if you get mad at someone or something,
He is there waiting to hug you and comfort you.
That's our awesome God.
He keeps loving you no matter what.
Cool huh?
Halleluyaaaaah!

Jesus is Enough by Sarah Young
Have you downloaded this awesome yet?
I Am Enough!
But seek his kingdom, and these things will be given to you as well.
—Luke 12:31
I am all around you. Even when you don’t notice Me, I am here.
You may not notice Me because your mind is tied up with other things. Like worry. A lot of people believe that worry is just a part of life. But they are wrong. Worry is actually a kind of unbelief. Worrying says you don’t believe I am big enough to take care of whatever it is that upsets you so much. Worrying says you think I need your help.
Wrong! I am big enough. I am strong enough. I love you enough. Bring your problems to Me. You can trust Me to take care of you—and whatever you are worrying about!

See Your Enemies Flee Because Of Jesus by Joseph Prince
I love devotionals that talk about how powerful Jesus is! Thank you Joseph Prince for your ministry! I have an awesome life right now because of Jesus!
Enjoy today's devotional from Joseph Prince my friend. :)
Have a lovely Saturday!
See Your Enemies Flee Because Of Jesus by Joseph Prince
Deuteronomy 28:7
7 “The Lord will cause your enemies who rise against you to be defeated before your face; they shall come out against you one way and flee before you seven ways.
Some people think that Jesus and the devil are always confronting and fighting each other. But when I read my Bible, I don’t see fights between the two. What I see is the devil having to flee whenever he encounters Jesus!
Consider the demoniac from the country of the Gadarenes in Luke 8:26–39. The demons in the man begged Jesus not to torment them or send them into the abyss, but to permit them to enter a herd of swine nearby.
You see, neither the devil nor his demons can stand before Jesus. They may be able to torment people for a while, but when Jesus comes on the scene, they know that that is the end of their stay. They will have to flee! All it took was just one word from Jesus, and the entire legion of demons had to come out of the man and flee into the swine.
As a child of God, you exude a spiritual fragrance which evil spirits can detect and which causes them to tremble. It is the life of Jesus inside you. And He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world. (1 John 4:4) That is why no curse, spell, accusation, scandal or destruction planned against you can succeed. Your enemies may come against you one way, but the Lord will confuse them and cause them to flee before you seven ways!
Jesus paid with His life to give you this victory over your enemies. After His arrest in the garden of Gethsemane, the Jews and Gentiles were united for the first time with one common objective: Torture Jesus and have Him killed. King Herod of the Jews and Pontius Pilate of the Romans were long-time enemies, but because of Jesus, they became friends. (Luke 23:12)
My friend, Jesus’ enemies were united and had “victory” over Him. But because He triumphed over them through the cross and rose again, today, your enemies will be scattered and you will have victory over them!

Jesus Loves A Silly You
I just received a daily devotional today from another Christian.
I read it till the end.
It talked about how to keep your conscience clear. (I say, well that's good)
But till the end of her message,
I never see Jesus' name mentioned even once.
You see, if you're a new Christian and some Christian friends or acquaintance will try to drag you down with this kind of preaching,
Just pause for awhile, take a deep breath and say to Jesus,"Jesus, you got me. I got you. Please don't ever let me go. "
Been there, done that!
While I was in Philippines, I was trying to reach out to God by joining Christian communities and churches. But the truths that they gave me in there just disappointed me. Because they tried to change me first! Huh! They said you must come clean to God so God can accept you and you will go to heaven. If you keep doing the wrong things, you will still go to hell even if you accept Jesus.
I say," Wow!" Really!??
That event of my life made me go back to Catholic churches.
I told God,"God, you see, your people's teachings make me confuse. So , I'm back here. This will be my last church. After this , I will go my way and please just continue to guide me..wherever I go. Just be there for you. Ok?"
And guess what?
That little prayer worked and I know from there on God was always with me as I continued to seek the truth.
Forward to this year. Thats maybe after 8 years. I'm glad Jesus has led me to His truth.
God is a good God and He accepts you as what and who you are .. You may fail or do some silly stuff each day , it's ok. He is a very merciful God. And He loves you truely, deeply, madly!
In time, His goodness and unconditional love will change you from the inside out! So stop struggling! Just keep resting in Jesus' love.
If you think you have done something wrong or stupid, just say this " I am the righteousness of God through Jesus who strengthens me. Amen!"
That's it.
You see, Life in Jesus is an easy-life of rest. His yoke is light and easy. So today, even if you got mad at something, just smile and say,"Jesus thank You for loving a silly me. It's only you who can truly accept me. "
Easy right?
More to come...
See you on my next blog. :)
Jesus rocks!
