Not Satisfied With Just Being Saved

Yeah, I am not just satisfied of being saved.
I want healing, protection and restoration from God.

I know that I have a big God, so I can boldly say,
If God is for me, then who can be against me!
Don't you want that kind of security?

In the world, you can find or even buy SECURITIES but those are just
temporary and are meant to fall.

My security which comes from God is eternal and UNSHAKEABLE!!

What about you?




Not Satisfied With Just Being What Saved


Genesis 12:7
7Then the Lord appeared to Abram and said, “To your descendants I will give this land.” And there he built an altar to the Lord, who had appeared to him.

I don’t know about you, but I am not satisfied with just knowing that I am righteous by faith. I also want to get to know the One who made me righteous. I want to have an intimate relationship with my Savior!

Abraham was such a man. He was righteous by faith, but he also had a close walk with God and was blessed by God in all things. (Genesis 24:1) His nephew Lot, on the other hand, although righteous too (2 Peter 2:7–8), had no heart for God. He ended up losing a lot when Sodom, the city he dwelt in, was destroyed along with Gomorrah. He was saved by the skin of his teeth!

My friend, do you want to be a Christian like Lot, righteous but always finding yourself in trouble, or do you want to be a righteous-and-blessed Christian like Abraham? Then, like Abraham, have a heart for God.

From place to place, Abraham would build an altar to the Lord. And in between altars, he grew very rich! (Genesis 13:2) There is no biblical record, however, of Lot ever building an altar to the Lord.

What is an “altar” in today’s context? It is a place where you know that you have a close relationship with God. For example, when my late father was in the hospital, I was worried and did not know what to do. I remember driving down the road and crying. After a while, I just threw my cares to the Lord. When I reached the hospital, I just laid my hands on my father and said, “Be healed in Jesus’ name.” And he was healed!

Till today, I can remember the place where I had cast my cares to the Lord and leaned on His love for me. That is my “altar”. And it is not the only one.

We have got to have this kind of relationship with God, one full of “altars” that remind us of His love, goodness and faithfulness. Let’s not live the Christian life like Lot, saved by the skin of our teeth. Let’s walk closely with God as Abraham did, and be richly blessed in every area of our lives!

The Root Cause Of Your Problem Is Condemnation

When was the last time you had an evil day? If you look back and trace how it started, you will find that it all began when you received the accusations and condemnation of the devil. What brought about your evil day was not so much stress or fear, but the deepest root of all — condemnation. ...



From my friend Sharon:

I am currently watching here at home this DVD series ~ Condemnation Kills but the SPIRIT gives life.. by Joseph Prince.. This is a clip from the 4 dvd series.. It is life changing..
YES God must punish sins for the wages of sin is death.. but we can ...be free from sin and condemnation because GOD loved us so much HE sent JESUS to bear all sin and HE died in our place.. Not just for our sins.. but everyones sins for all time.. JESUS took our punishment.. and the wrath of GOD was carried out for our sins on JESUS.. So now if we will only believe what GOD has done.. we are no longer condemned.. We stand free.. before GOD.. and we receive total pardon.. right standing with GOD.. and become HIS children.. with all the benefits.. Life.. peace.. joy.. health.. etc.. Halleujah.. that is good news..

JESUS WALK WITH ME

Club 8 is a Swedish musical group consisting of Karolina Komstedt (from the band Poprace) and Johan AngergÄrd (Acid House Kings, Poprace). This song is from the album The Boy Who Couldn't Stop Dreaming(2007). http://www.club-8.org/ http://www.myspace.com/club8



When I wake up in the morning
Feel the sun shine on my face
I get up and I'm yawning
There is so much time I can waste


Cause I need this
God feed me with your love

And take me through the day



Fool me into believing
I don't care if... your deceiving me

I wouldn't want it any other way

'Cause then I'd only stay the same

Fool me into believing

I don't care if your deceiving me



When I wake up in the dawning

And the day is not far away
Find my way in a dark room

That my eyes fail to see through
If God made me
Will Jesus save me?

And take me through the day

Fool me into believing

I don't care if your deceiving me

I wouldn't want it any other way

'Cause then I'd only stay the same

Fool me into believing

I don't care if your deceiving me

Before I go I need to be

Something more than the skin and bones you see

'Cause everywhere I go

Everywhere I've been

And everywhere I'm going to

I only go with you

Lift Songs Of Praise To The Lord

Listening to praise songs lifts me up everytime I'm down, bored or confused.
I keep doing it.
It feels good just listening to it that I forget my bad situation.
One event of my life when my dad passed away. Instead of bursting out of tears
and depression, I plugged in my ipod and soaked on any Christian songs like
the New Creation, Hillsongs,and many others.

A voice deep within comforts me telling me that everything's going to be ok.

There's total peace in me whatever the situation maybe.

Hear what Pastor Joseph Prince has to say about listening to praise and worship songs.

"Lift Songs Of Praise To The Lord

Ephesians 5:17
17Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is.
God wants us to walk as wise men and women, and not as fools. (Ephesians 5:15) Now, He will not tell us to walk in wisdom without showing us how. That is why His Word goes on to say, “Therefore do not be unwise, but understand what the will of the Lord is.”
So what is the will of God? The next two verses tell us how to identify it: “And do not be drunk with wine, in which is dissipation; but be filled with the Spirit, speaking to one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord”. (Ephesians 5:18–19)
As you allow yourself to be filled with the Spirit by lifting songs of praise to the Lord, singing or speaking (God knows some of us can’t sing!) psalms, hymns and spiritual songs, and making melody in your heart to the Lord, God promises that you will know what His will is for your situation. You will then have the wisdom to decide wisely what to do next.
I have found this to be true in my own life. Whenever I face a difficult situation, the more I think about it, the more confused I get. The more I try my best to come up with a smart solution, the further the answer seems to get from me. But when I turn away from my problem and turn to God, singing in the Spirit and praising Him, I get a clearer perspective of the problem when I come back to it later. I also find an inner prompting to make certain decisions which in the end, turn out to be better than anything I could have come up with on my own.
So my friend, lift up songs of praise to the Lord, whether times are good or bad. For when you fill your mouth with praises to God, He will lead you and guide you in all the affairs of your life. Even if you are stuck with a problem, He will show you the way to go or make a way out for you. Either way, you will get the wisdom and help that you need!

Quit Trying to Please Everybody

Quit Trying to Please Everybody
by Rick Warren

"It is dangerous to be concerned with what others think of you" (Proverbs 29:25 GN).

When we worry about what other people think, we let them control us. We waste a lot of time and energy trying to figure out what other people want us to be. Then, we waste a lot of time and energy trying to become like that rather than just being what God made us to be. You're manipulated and controlled by somebody else.

Worrying about what other people think is dangerous because we're more likely to cave in to criticism. It means we don't always do the right thing; instead, we do the thing that everybody wants us to do.

And we're in danger of missing God's best because we're so worried about what other people what us to do that we can't stop to think about what God wants us to do.

• Fact #1: You cannot please everybody. Even God can't please everybody. One person prays for it to rain; another prays for it to be sunny. In the Super Bowl, both teams are praying that they will win. Who is God going to answer? God can't please everybody. Only a fool would try to do what even God can't do. You can't please everybody.

• Fact #2: It's not necessary to please everybody. There is a myth that says you must be loved and approved by everybody in order to be happy. That's just not true. You don't have to please everybody in order to be happy in life.

• Fact #3: Rejection will not ruin your life. It hurts, sure. It's not fun. It's uncomfortable. But rejection will not ruin your life unless you let it.

Quit trying to please everybody! Remember that nobody can make you feel inferior unless you give them permission.

The Apostle Paul says, "If God is for us, who can be against us?" (Romans 8:31 TEV) This means we can think like this: 'God likes me, and I like me; if you don't like me, then you've got a problem. If God likes me, who cares that everybody doesn't approve of everything I do.'

Remember, nothing you ever do will make God love you less. Nothing you ever do will make God love you more. He loves you completely right now.

That REST in Jesus




You know when Jesus tells us to Rest in Him doesn't
mean physical rest.
It means rest from your emotions.
Rest from your mind and spirit.

When you worry about something, have a lot of stress
in your monthly bills, studies, relationships, family issues, money and health you gotta break free from it!

Why do you need to break free?

Because simple. Stress is detrimental to your health.

I can share a lot of stories, news and studies proving that stress is bad. That it even causes one's death.

Jesus knows well. That's why He wants you to rest in Him.

You may ask me how do I do it?

Simple.

I just think of Jesus on the cross.
That thought alone can lead you to do things you
didn't expect that you had the motivation to do.
Like listening to cool worship and praise songs,
and anointed teachings.

There's a lot of it that you can do actually.

In the end, I'm 101% sure
Whatever circumstances that you're into
Jesus is going to make you smile.

Just like why I'm smiling right now:)

FW: Painted Feathers

"Have great hopes and dare to go all out for them. Have great dreams and dare to live them. Have tremendous expectations and believe in them."

The painters of these feathers are outstanding but the message below is even better.













God's Wings

A little something to put things in perspective...

After a forest fire in Yellowstone National Park , forest rangers began their trek up a mountain to assess the inferno's damage.

One ranger found a bird literally petrified in ashes, perched statuesquely on the ground at the base of a tree. Somewhat sickened by the eerie sight, he knocked over the bird with a stick. When he gently struck it, three tiny chicks scurried from under their dead mother's wings. The loving mother, keenly aware of impending disaster, had carried her offspring to the base of the tree and had gathered them under her wings, instinctively knowing that the toxic smoke would rise.

She could have flown to safety but had refused to abandon her babies.. Then the blaze had arrived and the heat had scorched her small body, the mother had remained steadfast ...because she had been willing to die, so those under the cover of her wings would live.

'He will cover you with His feathers, and under His wings you will find refuge.' (Psalm 91:4)

Being loved this much should make a difference in your life. Remember the One who loves you, and then be different because of it.

The GIFT

>As Graduation Day approached, the young man

>his father called him into his private study.
>His father told him how proud he was to have such

>Before he could make arrangements, he received a telegram telling him

>He began to search through his father's important

>With tears, he opened the Bible and began to turn the pages.
>His father had carefully underlined a verse, Matt

JESUS on the Beach

Pictures below are from a beach in Maryland . Isn't the artwork awesome? Be sure to open up your screen all the way. The man creates new ones each day, as the ocean washes away his work every day.

This is Chuck Ritchey, Sr. I have watched this man work on the beach at Ocean City , Maryland . Each time I watch him I marvel at his talent and fortitude because it is true that his works get washed away with the tide and he does them again. He is certainly a witness for Jesus Christ as thousands of people, in the course of a day, view his work and watch as he crafts his treasures. May his message be viewed by many.

Being happy doesn't mean everything's perfect. It means you've decided to see beyond the imperfections!

God didn't promise days without pain, laughter without sorrow, sun without rain, but HE did promise strength for the day, comfort for the tears & light for the way.

Maxine on Jesus

These are wonderful messages I got from my email. I really don't know who Maxine is
but I find her drawings a wonderful blessings and revelations.
Enjoy!!







God of Wonders by Third Day

From Brian:
When I look at how immense and vast God's universe is, I feel so VERY small in comparison. But then I stop and think about the fact that even with all He has created, He still cares for me and loved me enough to give His only son so that I could have redemption. I hope you all enjoy this one ... it's a bit of a departure from my previous videos, but it really makes you think and gives some perspective.

God Bless!
Brian

FW: Saying Grace In A Restaurant

Got this cool message from a friend:)


Last week, I took my children to a restaurant.

My six-year-old son asked if he could say grace.

As we bowed our heads he said, "God is good, God is great. Thank you for the food, and I would even thank you more if Mom gets us ice cream for dessert. And liberty and justice for all! Amen!"

Along with the laughter from the other customers nearby, I heard a woman remark, "That's what's wrong with this country. Kids today don't even know how to pray. Asking God for ice cream! Why, I never!"

Hearing this, my son burst into tears and asked me, "Did I do it wrong? Is God mad at me?"

As I held him and assured him that he had done a terrific job, and God was certainly not mad at him, an elderly gentleman approached the table.

He winked at my son and said, "I happen to know that God thought that was a great prayer."

"Really?" my son asked.

"Cross my heart," the man replied.

Then, in a theatrical whisper, he added (indicating the woman whose remark had started this whole thing), "Too bad she never asks God for ice cream. A little ice cream is good for the soul sometimes."

Naturally, I bought my kids ice cream at the end of the meal. My son stared at his for a moment, and then did something I will remember the rest of my life.

He picked up his sundae and, without a word, walked over and placed it in front of the woman. With a big smile he told her, "Here, this is for you. Ice cream is good for the soul sometimes; and my soul is good already."

The End

I love this story!
Please keep it moving.
Sometimes, we all need some ice cream.



I hope God sends you some ice cream today!

The Secret of Deliverence To Self

It is true! When you think too much of yourself, you can only feel and see
failures, pains, heartaches, rejection, frustrations and depressions.

Total darkness, isn't it?

Jesus has taught to walk away from myself and just focus on Him .
When I did that, everything changed!
In Him, I see only Peace, love, protection and healing.

My future is bright because my focus is on Jesus.

I love doing it. try it!

And how to do it?

Just soak on His words and listen to anointing preachings like this.

Let's listen together. This is one of my faves!

Be blessed!

It Shall Not Come Near You!

My mom and my late dad had hypertension and usually, what comes with it is a heartdisease.
They got it from their parents and they say, it's hereditary and if it's hereditary ,
100% sure that I, too would have it sooner or later.

The Bible calls it as "generational curse"!

Few years back when I wasn't so into Jesus, I was full of fear.

I was so scared that I may really have it.

Cancer, highblood pressure, hyperthyroidism, diabetes, name it!

But behooooold!

I am not without a God!

I have Jesus!

and Jesus have already cut those generational curses away from me
because of what He has done on the cross!

Wooooow! Truly, His blood has created a new creation in me!

That's why, no matter how I feel, I can boldly say, "By Jesus stripes, I AM Healed!"

Protection is on me FOREVER!!!


Read more and be blessed!!

It Shall Not Come Near You!
 
 Psalm 91:7
7A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it shall not come near you.
Your doctor or insurance agent may ask you, “Do you have a family history of cancer?” If you say, “Yes,” they will probably tell you that you might get some form of cancer too.
Now, if you are without God, you would probably agree with them and start worrying about your health. But you are not without God! In fact, His Word tells you, “A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it shall not come near you.” Therefore, even if you have a family history of cancer, and your family members have died of cancer, you can have the confidence to declare that it will not come near you!
My mother had this attitude. After a thorough medical check-up, the doctor was surprised and told her that she did not have high blood pressure or heart disease, although these two conditions have plagued her father and siblings. You see, my mother had already firmly declared that no deadly, family-related disease would come near her.
Praise God for my mother’s trust in God’s Word because I am the generation after her! In fact, after my mother told me about the results of her check-up, I randomly opened my Bible only to read about Rahab the harlot who by faith “did not perish with those who did not believe”. (Hebrews 11:31)
Beloved, God wants you to know that even though you are in this world, you are not of this world. You belong to Him. You don’t have to get caught in dire situations along with the people of the world. Because God is on your side, “He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler and from the perilous pestilence”. (Psalm 91:3)
Even when it comes to generational diseases, you can boldly declare, “That disease stops here!” because you have God and His Word. And when you believe God and His Word, you will see His promises come to pass for you — “A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it shall not come near you”!

The Kelly Family - Amazing Grace (Paddy crying)

Take out your hankies before watching ...(sobs)
This is a video of the Kelly Family crying during the song 'Amazing Grace' at a tv show in 1989. They are crying because this was the favourite song of their mother Barbara, who died in 1982 because of cancer. They also sang it at her funeral

John 8:32- The TRUTH rocks!

I am soooo loving the TRUTH that I know.
In life, the truth that we are just ordinary human beings taking our time off
here on this earth is a fact.
Humans breathe, eat, shop, travel, have fun, and just live.
Some seek to a higher grounds, fulfilling life's dreams and aspirations,
make lotsa money, be rich...

....just to be happy.

Some run, like Forrest Gump..others enjoy the walk, while the others
want to escape from it.

Through it all, you know what?

What you do really depends on the Truth that you know.

I knew those worldy "truths" few years back. And I struggled.
Life wasn't easy, full of depressions, frustrations and fears.

Because the world taught me that that's how it is. And there was no escaping it.

No escaping from sickness, cancer, pains, heartaches, financial problems,etc.

Kabooom!

Where would you want to go???

Dead end!



But now?

When I turned to Jesus, everything is soooo different.

He taught and gave me His TRUTH.

When I believed it. everything else makes sense.

There's healing in every part of me..

There's joy even if I am in pain.

There's PEACE when the world has turned dark with deadly diseases,
financial downturn, calamities and terrorisms!

Awesome, right?

Yeaaah! That's the TRUTH that I know.

And I'm gona share it with you one day at a time.


Thank you Jesus!

Turn Your Cares Into Prayers

You need to read this. It has blessed me so well.

WORRY no more AND ENJOY LIFE MORE!



Turn Your Cares Into Prayers

Philippians 4:6
6Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God;

My friend, God doesn’t want you to be fearful, fretful or anxious. Instead, He wants you to “be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God”.

So when you have a care or worry, straightaway, turn that care or worry into prayer. That is supplication. And when you are troubled by a care or worry that you don’t know how to pray for, pray in the Spirit or tongues. And in the midst of that prayer, thank God that He is already your healing, provision, prosperity, good success and victory. That, my friend, is thanksgiving.

“Pastor Prince, if I am worried about something, how long should I pray?”

Keep on praying. Pray in the Spirit until the worry lifts or dissipates, “and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus”. (Philippians 4:7)

This was what one of our church members did when he found himself anxiously trying to access some important data in his USB flash drive. After a whole day at it with no results, he finally stopped himself from being anxious and instead, turned his worry into prayer, asking the Lord to settle it for him. As he prayed in tongues, he was also thankfully repeating in his heart that having the Holy Spirit — the Helper — with him was to his advantage. (John 16:7)

Later that evening, using his wife’s computer, he succeeded in accessing the data in his flash drive after a few attempts. He quickly backed up the data. It was only when subsequent attempts to use the flash drive on his wife’s computer failed did it suddenly dawn on him that God had “resurrected” his flash drive that one time, just for him to recover his data!

Beloved, I believe that we would all worry a lot less and enjoy our lives a lot more if only we realized this truth: Our Abba Father is so strong that there is nothing He cannot do, and He is so loving that there is nothing He will not do for us!
