Blind Man from Madagascar

The touching story of Jesus healing a man born blind. Imagine being able to see your wife for the first time after 30 years of marriage. This story depicts the miracles of Jesus around the world in the festivals of Celebrate Jesus International.

Everyday, we complain about everything...

... gas prices rising up, dirty politicians, no salary increase , stockmarket falling, bad relationships, not having a job--or even if one has a job, still whine about it because of some b*chy colleagues and an unpredictable boss.

Yes.

We get pissed off with all the intractable people around us and yet we never managed to look deeply into ourselves what's really going on.

Is something wrong with the world around us..or Is there something wrong IN US?

We live in impulses.
And I believe with impulses ...comes everything...
We reap what we sow goes the famous adage.

But with Jesus...nothing could go wrong.
Trust me.

Wih Him right now, I am able to understand the world and not being affected by it.
Why there is tsunamis, earthquakes, floods, terrorism, death, etc...
name it.

With Jesus, you'd come to know the truth...and the truth shall set you free!

The Days Of Take, Take And Take Have Come

1 Corinthians 2:12
12Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things that have been freely given to us by God.

You are a child of the Most High God and He wants you to know the things that have been freely given to you. He wants you to receive them freely although it cost Him His Son. This is His love towards you — He paid the price, but He wants you to receive freely!

Perhaps you’re asking the Lord, “How is it that I don’t have this, God? And why do I have so little of that?”

I believe He says to you, “What do you lack, my child? Health? Take it! It has been paid for with the life of My Son!

“Do you need peace of mind? My Son wore the crown of thorns on His head to give it to you. Take it!

“Lack wisdom? Take My wisdom!

“Need victory? Victory is not something you attain. It is a gift to be received. Take it!

“Take My prosperity! Take My favour! Every time you come into My Presence, take, and take some more!”

God, your heavenly Father, wants you to receive like the prodigal son, who deserved nothing, but received everything! (Luke 15:11–24) God delights in giving freely. And He delights in you receiving freely because it shows that you value and appreciate His Son’s sacrifice.

You miss it when you are busy trying to earn what has been freely given to you, when you think that you must do more for God to bless you, or that you must pay the price for it. God cannot give it to you based on your works because if it is by works, it is no longer by grace. You frustrate the grace of God and make light of Jesus’ work at Calvary.

The days of trying, earning and doing are over. The days of take, take and take have come. Take and you will bring pleasure to God’s heart. Say to Him, “Oh Father, I don’t even have the faith to believe, so I take Your faith as a gift! I live by the faith of the Son of God to believe for my miracle right now! In Jesus’ name, Amen!”

The Beauty Of Living in God's Love




I love this sermon by Pastor Prince of New Creation Church. It changes my perspective in everything that I do..Hear for yourself..:)

Heaven and earth can pass away..
God's words will never pass away.
He endures till the end,.
I have... what God says I have,
I am... God says I am.
God said it...
That settles it.

A Video For Jesus

I have collected these videos from my first 2 years of stay here in Singapore.
These are meaningful ones because it's in Singapore that I really have felt the
power of Jesus in me. Now I know why Singapore is so blessed. It would really tear me apart if one day I would decide to leave this beautiful and serene place...

These are random shots by the way, like The Chinggay Parade2007, the city and Singapore zoo. I thought of having a series of this episode. Will see...

I am so high I wana touch the sky!

It's Christmas time!
This is the first Christmas without my dearest Papa and sister.
Terribly missed them...for now they are probably enjoying celebrating
with the Lord in heaven.

My mama is back home with my cousin. Hope she's enjoying without me .
Don't worry mama...I'm going back this feb. will see you soon!
Sigh. I wished I could go back to Cebu and settle back there..But then again,
I still have a lot of things to accomplished with. Debts to pay ...just that.

Anyways.

My second family in Pateros?
Ya, I know they are happy and so busy right now
cooking, giving gifts, merry-making, etc. Merry Christmas to them.

My boss? Well, she's sick right now. Hope she recovers soon.
She's been feeling terrible since last Saturday. I pray for her fast recovery.
I can't imagine being sick on a Christmas day. I love my boss.
And she will be ok so she can have fun.

...and me??

Here I am, stuck in my cubicle working while everyone
is getting ready to party!

Hooah! Hear that? I am alone while everyone is going to party! Why ha?

Is this my fate?
Am I going to feel bitter about it and bury myself in self-pity?
Welp, my "old" pathetic self tells me that.

But am I going to give in?

No way Jose!

Definitely NOT!

That's the power of being with Jesus!
The happiness that I am feeling right now is overwhelming that I need not go anywhere else in this world just to look for that 'Happiness". (But hey, pls. not in my ofc ok?)

Back then, I used to be so happy during Christmas ..and that happiness would only last for just about a week or two..till the end of the year maybe..After that, there goes my grumpy, a*shole behavior and sickening mood again.

But alas! After Jesus has dominated me...everything is temporary.
My sorrows, bad moods could only last for just a moment..like a microseconds or so.
I feel it within...and I cannot express it anywhere else but here..in my blog.
You don't wana see me jumping , flailing my arms around the streets of Singapore laughing or smiling at you, do you? Someone for sure will call the police! Hahah!

Guess I am addicted to Jesus now..
I am so high I wana touch the sky!

Merry Christmas everyone!
Jesus rocks!

Pastor Prince in Hillsong Australia

Introducing Pastor Joseph Prince of New Creation Singapore!
Are you one of us?

My church-- New Creation in Singapore

Well, this is how it goes everytime I go for church service on Sundays.
We have 4 services, from 7am, 11, 2 and 5pm..
Most of the time I go for the 5pm service
hopeful that I would be able to make it inside the auditorium.
But heck, people of Singapore couldn't just get enough with Jesus--- know why?
...Because I always end up in the Overflow room.
"Overflow" means overflow, a massive excess!

...Singapore wants and loves Jesus so much that you need or "must"
be there queueing for an hour or two to get a good seat.


Good thing our church has 2 overflow rooms. Yeah, it's not bad at all...
and I'm beginning to love the Overflow Rooms..:)


Found a video on youtube that I can share my sentiments with . Heheh!
I love my church! I love Jesus! I love Singapore!

What's in your heart?

I am not getting so melodramatic in here.
They say being a Christian or being close to God or Jesus
means 'welcome to a boring life!" All you gotta do is pray,pray and pray.
Go to church, spend time in a charity. Be good always.
Those are the teachings of old covenant..that's old news folks!

Because today. Right now. We have Jesus! And that's the good news!
With Jesus, you have no time to get bored or anything! Just be yourself.
You just stay who and what you are right now and see Jesus do the action for you.

In time, when you get to experience His love, that change is inevitible
without hypocrisy and all.

You can a be a b*tch or an a**hole for some of your friends and enemies.
But as long as you believe in Jesus as your bestfriend and saviour..you're getting there and have taken the right steps. Go for it! I am right behind you.

Oh by the way, just wana share a video I have created ...it's one of my fave songs.

This song really speaks of what's in my heart right now. Though I am in "great debt" and huge bills are running after me...and I want stuffs like a new macbookpro, iphone, dvx102b videocam....I could still say, I'd rather have Jesus than anything else in this world...

Sing a long with me pls.

as Jesus walks...

It's amazing when Jesus touches one's heart ...
the feeling and the moment is incomprehensible...

Like Kanye...as a rapper , he knows that he needs Jesus and wrote a song for him
after Jesus saved him from a car accident.

Hear this out from his lyrics...
I need to recruit all the soldiers
All of God's soldiers
We at war
We at war with society, racism, terrorism, but most of all we at war with ourselves

(Jesus Walks)
God show me the way because the Devil trying to break me down
(Jesus Walks with me) with me with me with me [fades]

You know what the Midwest is?
Young & Restless
Where restless NIGGAZ! might snatch your necklace
And next these NIGGAZ! might jack your Lexus
Somebody tell these NIGGAZ! who Kanye West is
I walk through the valley of the shadow of death is
Top floor the view alone will leave you breathless Uhhhh!
Try to catch it Uhhhh! It's kinda hard
Getting choked by the detectives yeah yeah now check the method
They be asking us questions, harass and arrest us
Saying "we eat pieces of shit like you for breakfast"
Huh? Y'all eat pieces of shit? What's the basis?
We ain't going nowhere but got suits and cases
A trunk full of coke rental car from Avis
My momma used to say only Jesus can save us
Well momma I know I act a fool
But I'll be gone til November I got packs to move cuz I hope

(Jesus Walks)
God show me the way because the Devil trying to break me down
(Jesus Walks with me)
The only thing that I pray is that me feet don't fail me now
(Jesus Walks)
And I don't think there is nothing I can do now to right my wrongs
(Jesus Walks with me)
I want to talk to God but I'm afraid because we ain't spoke in so long

(Jesus Walks)
God show me the way because the Devil trying to break me down
(Jesus Walks with me)
The only thing that I pray is that me feet don't fail me now
(Jesus Walks)
And I don't think there is nothing I can do now to right my wrongs
(Jesus Walks with me)
I want to talk to God but I'm afraid because we ain't spoke in so long,(Jesus walks)so long, (Jesus walks),so lo-ong. (Jesus walks with me with me with me. fades)

To the hustlas, killers, murderers, drug dealers even the strippers
(Jesus walks with them)
To the victims of Welfare for we living in hell here hell yeah
(Jesus walks with tthheemm)
Now hear ye hear ye want to see Thee more clearly
I know He hear me when my feet get weary
Cuz we're the almost nearly extinct
We rappers is role models we rap we don't think
I ain't here to argue about his facial features
Or here to convert atheists into believers
I'm just trying to say the way school need teachers
The way Kathie Lee needed Regis that's the way I need Jesus
So here go my single dog radio needs this
They say you can rap about anything except for Jesus
That means guns, sex, lies, video tapes
But if I talk about God my record won't get played Huh?
Well let this take away from my spins
Which will probably take away from my ends
Then I hope it take away from my sins
And bring the day that I'm dreaming about
Next time I'm in the club everybody screaming out

(Jesus Walks)
God show me the way because the devil trying to break me down
(Jesus Walks with me)
The only thing that I pray is that me feet don't fail me now

Enjoying the ride...

In my life, I wanted to do and achieve a lot of things...was ok.
But getting tired of it all...always doing it on my own which most of the time ended up the wrong way -- I rested.
I gave up..
...to God.

Now Jesus is control and I am now n the passenger's seat...resting...enjoying the ride! Wana hop in?

Jesus Tomb

An incredible archaeological discovery in Israel changes history and shocks the world. Tombs with the names Maria, Jesus son of Joseph, Mariamne e Mara, and Judah, their son, are found and an investigation begins.

Jesus Tomb

Do you feel this?

Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and

decay destroys, and thieves break in and steal. But store up treasures

in heaven, where neither moth nor decay destroy, nor thieves break

in and steal. For where your treasure is, there also will your heart

be (Matt 6:19).

Being poor in spirit is not the same as being impoverished; it means being detached from material things. Attachment to material things is dangerous because they don’t count for anything in the next life. Jesus warns against being overly concerned with worldly success: "What profit would there be for one to gain the whole world and forfeit his life?" (Matt 16:26). A new car, for example, is a good thing in itself, but not if it becomes more important than our relationship with God or others. I know people who lovingly wash their cars on Sunday but do not attend Mass. We have to love people and use cars, not love cars and use people. As Jesus points out, some fall away because "they are choked by the anxieties and riches and pleasures of life" (Luke 8:14), thereby forgetting God and the reason they’re here. The true meaning of earthly life is to prepare for the next life, not to get taken up by who has the most toys. I have never seen a hearse with a U-Haul truck behind it. Eternity is the proper vantage point from which to judge the value of all things.

A prayer for you dear friends...

Sow Where You Want A Harvest

Genesis 26:12
12Then Isaac sowed in that land, and reaped in the same year a hundredfold; and the Lord blessed him.

When you sow apple seeds, you get apples. When you sow seeds of friendship, you get friends. If in the natural, you receive in the area in which you sow your seeds, how much more will you receive in the supernatural when God blesses you!

The Bible tells us that when Isaac sowed in the land, he reaped a hundredfold even though there was a famine in that land. (Genesis 26:1, 12) The reason was that “the Lord blessed him”.

So if you are believing God for a breakthrough in a particular area, sow in that area. That was how our church went about setting up its first childcare centre years ago. One of the first things we did was to sow a childcare centre for a Christian organisation in Thailand.

And within the first month, our childcare centre made a very handsome profit. This was amazing considering the fact that we took over the location of a previous childcare centre which had closed down because it was making losses. It could only be the Lord blessing us. And He “is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think”. (Ephesians 3:20)

Whatever money or time you give to the Lord, He will multiply it back to you. For example, you have 24 hours a day like everyone else, but the Lord can make your day very fruitful. And even after doing all that needs to be done, you will find that you still have so much time left to rest.

Even when you have nothing to give but prayers, your prayers will not return to you void. God can answer them exceedingly above what you have asked. When Job lost everything that he possessed, he prayed for his friends, and the Lord not only restored his losses, but “gave Job twice as much as he had before”. (Job 42:10)

So start sowing seeds in the area that you are believing God for, and know that before long, you will be reaping your harvest!

Pain is...

Pain is universal...
but so is hope...

God Always Wants You Well...

God Always Wants You Well


John 14:9
9Jesus said to him, “… He who has seen Me has seen the Father…”

Imagine the following scenario:

A father says to his little girl, “Come here, girl. Mummy says that you have been playing by the roadside. Is that true?”

“Yes, Daddy. I’m sorry,” the little girl says softly.

“Sorry? How many times have I told you that you must not play near the road? Come here! Now, lie down on the road and stretch out your legs!”

The father drives his car over his little girl’s legs. There is the sound of bones being crushed and the poor girl screams in pain.

“Now girl, you know Daddy loves you. And Daddy did that to you to teach you a lesson, to tell you that playing by the roadside is dangerous.”

If you are shaking your head in horror by now, wondering which sick mind would do that to one’s own daughter, imagine what people are accusing our heavenly Father of — that He gives sicknesses, accidents, destruction and even death just to teach people lessons.

Jesus said, “If you have seen Me, you have seen the Father.” Jesus is the nature of God in action. Throughout the gospel, we see God going about healing the sick. If God wants people sick, there should at least be one incident in the gospel where you see Him saying, “Behold, your complexion is too lovely, receive leprosy,” or “Blindness is good for you. Remain blind.” But no, never once! In fact, Jesus “went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil”. (Acts 10:38) That’s the heart of God.

As a father, if your child is sick and in great pain, your heart just wants him well. How much more your heavenly Father! God does not give your child sicknesses to teach both of you some lesson or to glorify Himself. To think so is to talk out of a warped mind bound by religion! Christianity is not a religion. It is a relationship with your Father in heaven. It is a heart matter.

And His heart speaks to your heart, saying, “I will never ever punish My children. I do not wish you ill. I will not take away your child. I will not give you car wrecks to teach you a lesson. My heart always wants My children well!”

Only You....

Jesus...my soul is longing...it's only You who can fill my heart...

He Will Carry You...

What is troubling you today?
Are you bored? Sad? Depress?
Getting tired of everything not coming your way as you have expected?
or feeling like the world has dawnd on you somehow..
...perhaps abandoned you?
For no reasons..you feel this way...and you think that it's normal.

Let me ask you..if it's "normal" how come you are uncomfortable with it, doesn't
like it and wants to get rid of it ASAP??

I got you there!
Yes! It's not normal to feel that way...Deep inside you feel it isn't.

Like you, I used to feel this way..a hundred times..or even a million times.

I was unconsciously deceived by it that I realized how stupid I was to let it even come my way .

The world sees it as normal because we are humans thus humans have feelings and human as we are, we must feel this way--- to interact...(how pathetic it's going to be then if we continue to think in this obnoxious manner.)

BUT...I will tell you.it's not NORMAL! Yeah! Lemme say it again.

It's not---It's NOT..it's Not!

You wana know the secret? (Welp, it's not really a secret. It has been spread across the globe, to everyone and yet, no one really pays attention to it. That's why our world has gone bonkers)

Nuff said. Ok here goes.

Listen to this song..and you will know...feel it in your heart...do not think..just
use your ears and heart this time...not your mind..

you ready?
