Why Worry?

The bible says which of you by worrying can increase your stature.

Why do we worry then? We worry because we don't believe God is able to
provide for all our needs. We worry because we don't think God is that good
to us. We worry because of the cares of the world.

The devil will always try to distract us from the love of God and His
written word. He will always try to deceive us into believing we have to
get our act together inorder to be right with God. He will gum us to death,
if we allow him to.

The work at the cross some two thousand years ago is completely complete!
There is nothing we do now to be righteous. For it had been accomplished by
Jesus at the cross. Our "role" is to believe God will always see us through
in our times of need. He may seem to be late but God is always on time. His
timing is always perfect.

The bible says to seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and
all these things that the gentiles seek He will add to us. What's seeking
the kingdom of God then? It is to be peaceful and joyous in the Holy
Spirit. It is knowing that we are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus.

When we are restful in the Holy Spirit, no evil formed shall come near us
nor any plague come near our dwellings. Knowing that we are right with God
through Jesus' finished work bring joy to body, soul and Spirit.

When we know that we know that God will always take care of us regardless
of our actions, we don't have to worry! We can cast all our cares upon
Jesus and lay our burden at His feet for He cares and His yoke is easy and
His burden is light.

When we are faced with a BIG challenge in our lives, knowing that God will
take care of the challenge will give us shalom. Why worry when we can
instead cast every care upon God? Believe by faith. With patience and
preserverance, things will always turn out for our good in His perfect
timing. Hallelujah!

Jesus is my all in all

Greater is He who is in me than he who is of the world. The Holy Spirit dwells within me as a proof of Jesus' finished work at the cross. With that ONE sacrificial act some 2000 years ago, all my sins are been forgiven. I have been made the righteousness of God in Christ.

When God sent His only begotten Son, Jesus to die on the cross, He had sent the One who is the most precious in God's eyes. The bible says that we are in Christ and Christ is in us, sinners who were saved by Jesus. We are seated at the right of God for we are in Christ. Hallelujah! If you we can fully comprehend what it means to be in Christ and Christ in me.

God had given Jesus to us to die on the cross. With Him, God had given all the provisions that we need. Jesus had bore all our diseases and illnesses so that we, sons and daughters of God, will and "having" divine health. We can proclaim wholeness into our lives for our speech has power. The bible says that death and life are in the power of the tongue. The more we proclaim health and wholeness into our lives, the more we will see health and wholeness in our lives. Proclaim good and we will see good.

Jesus was made poor at the cross so that we through His poverty will be made rich. If we are going through some dire situations in the area of finances, trust Jesus for His provision in that area. He is already working behind the scene to turn things around for our own good. He had already provided everything from the foundation of the earth. He is the answer. Our job is to believe Jesus, the Author and Finisher of our faith.

Trust in our loving Abba Father. Believe in the willing Son. Allow the Holy Spirit to work mightily in us. To lead us, always, into victorious situations. To guide us in our path of righteousness. To quicken our mortal bodies so that our youth is been renewed like the eagle's. Hallelujah.

The greatest love of all

We love for He first love us. My Abba Father loves me so much that He sent His only begotten Son to die on my behalf at the cross so that I can be made righteous before the Almighty God.

That's the kind of lavish love my God has for me. He doesn't want to see me suffer in any shape and form. He doesn't want me to suffer eternally in hades. He longs for my sonship. He wants to be close to me and provide for my every need.

He is always ahead of me to prepare my path. He wants the best for me. He wants me to remain in peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. He wants me to know that I am the righteousness of God in Christ. His plans for me are plans of a bright future and to prosper me. For the bible says, God will freely, with Christ, all things to enjoy.

We can now love one another because we first receive the love from Him. For we can do nothing without Christ. Jesus has come into our lives. The Holy Spirit indwells in me. He is the seal to the time of the second coming of Lord Jesus.

As fellow human being, our love for each other is limited. There is a limit to the love we have for each other. However, when we love each other with the love of Christ, there will be no limit to this Godly love. Regardless of how we are treated by others, we can always look to God for His un-ending love. The greatest love of all. Hallelujah!

God of more than enough

I have a God who is a God of more than enough. He is El Shaddai!

My God lavish His love upon His children. He doesn't know what is enough. He always blesses with more than enough. He always do it in style. That's the God whom I come to know, El Shaddai! My God is tripartite: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

In the story of the feeding of five thousand men, Jesus was able to multiple five loaves and two fishes to feed five thousand men, not counting the women and children. When they were all filled, there were 12 baskets full of food left for the disciples. El Shaddai was able to bless with more than enough. There was none hungry on that day.

In the story of the cleansing of leprosy, the leper asked Jesus if He was willing to cleanse him of leprosy. Jesus was not just willing but touched the leper who was probably devoid of all human touch for the longest time. Jesus went beyond than what was needed. He made the leper whole and gave him the human touch which he would have longed for.

In the story of the healing of a woman with the issue of blood, the woman was healed of her issue of blood flow when she touched the hem of Jesus' garment. Jesus turned around to look at her to assured her of her healing and give her the shalom peace. The woman, beside having received healing for her blood issue, received shalom peace into her life.

My God is the same yesterday, today and forever. My God is ever willing and ready to jump into my situation to turn it around for my good. He is keeping me whole and healthy divinely. He is prospering me with every spiritual blessing. He is protecting my whole family from harm and from every weapon that had formed against me. He is El Shaddai. With Him, I will never lack. Through Him, I can do all things. By Him, my life will never be the same for I can only expect good things to happen in my life. Hallelujah!

Nothing but the blood of Jesus

2000 years ago, a lone solitary figure was crucified with 2 thiefs at His right and left. His name is Jesus.

Jesus was crucified on my behalf so that I can take His place of righteousness before God. His precious blood was shed for the forgiveness of all my sins. He had established a new covenant where I can have a relationship with Him and God and the wonderful Holy Spirit who dwells in me.

Only His blood sacrifice can set me right before God. No other sacrifice is needed or can cut it. Jesus is God and Man. He came to Earth to become Man so that He has every right to redeem men of their sins.

Oh, how precious is the blood of Jesus. The sinless blood was shed for me to inherit and enjoy every blessing that God has for me. Hallelujah.

Peace in the middle of a traffic congestion

Was caught in a traffic congestion yesterday evening along Guillemard road at around 6:30 pm. I was feeling frustrated initially for being caught in that situation and also at the decision to travel on that road.

While mulling over the situation, I was reminded by the Holy Spirit that I was in my car and enjoying the sermon which was playing through the car's audio player. At that moment, it dawn on me how blessed I am. I was inside the car and not outside. I am able to listen very clearly and not deaf. I am to see with good vision and not blind. I am able to move my arms and legs and not limp. Hallelujah!

How often do we take these things for granted. Instead of thanking God for being alive and being able to praise and worship Him, we complain about the difficult times at the office, we complain about the inconsiderate neighbours, we complain about the government, and we complain .... Just for once, can we focus on the One who had taken away all our sins and had promised abundance of blessings on our lives.

When we behold His beauty and what He had accomplished at the cross, the image of God within us become "BIG". We begin to have good opinion of God. We start to believe God is good to us. We believe all things will happen for our good and that no evil shall befall us.

Paise and worship Him for He is good and His mercy endures forever.

Let go and let God

Count God faithful! When we are faithless, He is faithful. He will not rest till all our challenges have been overcome, all our issues are resolved.

Many of us feel that we are capable of great achievements. And rightfully so for those who are in Christ! However, how often do we find ourselves in a tight spot that we are not able, with our own effort, to get out of. For without Christ, we are nothing and we can do nothing. But we can do all things in Christ who strengthens us!

Lets cast all our cares at the feet of Jesus for He cares. Our worries and fears will not change the outcome of a difficult situation. But God can turn all things, including those that are adversed to us, for our good. He is more than willing to take care of all our cares. The moment we let Him take over, all our cares will be taken care of.

Therefore, stop striving to get things done through our own effort. Allow the Holy Spirit in us to work in and through us, with the peace of God, to bring about the completeness of things. Be restful at heart and mind and trust in the goodness of God . For He is good and His mercy endures forever.

A rainy start to a brand new day

It is drizzling now. The sky is grey and the sun seems to have disappeared. Yet deep in my heart I know the sun is still shinning. Just because the cloud has covered the sun doesn't imply the sun is no longer there.

How often have I focus on the issues at hand and forget there is a Son. The Son of God had done a complete work at the cross some two thousand years ago. Divine exchange had taken place. God had not spared His only begotten Son at the cross, how much more will He not take care of my issues. He cares so much for me that He even counts the number of hairs on my head.

Knowing that God loves me gives me the assurance and confidence He will turn my situation around for my good. What a lovely Abba Daddy I have. What a wonderful Lord in Christ Jesus. What a mighty Holy Spirit in me. Hallelujah!
