Jesus Is God’s Satisfaction by Joseph Prince
Leviticus 1:9
9 ...And the priest shall burn all [the pieces of the bull] on the altar as a burnt sacrifice, an offering made by fire, a sweet aroma to the Lord.
When Jesus was on the cross, He did more than just die for your sins. His one sacrifice did not just remove your sins, but it also clothed you in His righteousness and perfection. Jesus became the true “burnt sacrifice”.
In the Old Testament, whenever someone offered a burnt sacrifice, the perfection of the animal came on him. In the same way, every perfect attribute of Jesus your “burnt sacrifice” comes on you when you take Him as your Savior. And because God sees you clothed with Christ, you have the same acceptance and favor with Him that Jesus has!
When Jesus was offered on the cross, the fire of God brought out His perfections like perfume to God. In that one sacrifice, Jesus’ obedience and perfections rose as “a sweet aroma to the Lord”, which is what is emitted when the offering is burnt. This “sweet aroma” speaks of a savor of rest to God. Jesus’ perfect sacrifice gave God so much satisfaction that He rested.
You can also rest in the perfect sacrifice of Jesus, knowing that what He did, He did for you — “Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma”. (Ephesians 5:2) You can rest knowing that God the Father is satisfied with you because His Son’s sacrifice has caused His heart to rest with regard to you. You can rest because Jesus is God’s satisfaction for you.
Today, as you come before God, say, “Father, I thank You that Jesus is such a delight and joy to You. He satisfies Your heart completely. And what He did, He did for me. Because Jesus so satisfies You, I know that You are satisfied with me. Because Jesus is Your delight, I am also Your delight. Because Jesus so pleases You, I know I please You too. And because Jesus is my righteousness and perfection, I stand righteous and perfect before You.”
Beloved, when you speak of Christ and His finished work, it goes up to God as a sweet-smelling aroma, a savor of rest. And if God can rest in the perfect sacrifice of His Son, you can too!

Don’t Look Inside The Ark By Joseph Prince
Don’t Look Inside The Ark By Joseph Prince
1 John 2:2
2 And He Himself is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the whole world.
In the movie, Raiders Of The Lost Ark, the people who tried to look inside the ark were struck dead. What was inside the ark that brought judgment to those who looked into it?
The Bible tells us that the ark held the two tablets of the Ten Commandments, the pot of manna and Aaron’s rod. (Hebrews 9:4) These items were tokens of man’s rebellion. The two tablets of the Ten Commandments represented man’s rejection of God’s standards. The manna represented man’s rejection of God’s provision, and Aaron’s rod, man’s rejection of God’s appointed priesthood.
God did not want to look at these tokens of rebellion. He wanted to be merciful to His people, so He instructed them to place the items in the ark and to cover the ark with its mercy seat, which is also the place where the blood of the animal sacrifices was sprinkled.
Once a year on the Day of Atonement, the high priest would enter the Holy of Holies to sprinkle on the mercy seat the blood of the animal that had been sacrificed. The two cherubim on the mercy seat stood as guardians of God’s righteousness and holiness.
Representing God’s eyes too, they looked at the blood on the mercy seat. As long as the blood was there, the entire nation of Israel was forgiven. God’s judgment passed over them and they were blessed for another year. (Leviticus 16)
Today, the blood sprinkled on the mercy seat is not the blood of bulls and goats, but the precious, eternal blood of the Son of God! (Hebrews 9:12)Jesus is our “mercy seat” for “He Himself is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the whole world”. The word “propitiation” in the original Greek text is the same word as “mercy seat”. (Romans 3:25, Hebrews 9:5)
Beloved, God does not see your sins and count them against you because He sees His Son’s blood. He sees His Son’s perfect work that has more than satisfied Him. God does not want you to see your sins either. He does not want you to look inside the ark by focusing on your sins. He wants you to focus on Christ and His finished work!

Anger Management? Where?
If you're mad at something or someone, just say this prayer,
"Dear Jesus, I am not perfect. That's why I thank you because through your sacrifice at the cross I can say,
"I am the righteousness of God through Jesus. Please let your Word shine amidst my temper. Amen ! "

Your Future Is Awesome With God
Tuesday, April 10, 2012
God will Prosper me
Some Christians don't go for this Pastor Joel Osteen because they say he is a prosperity gospel preacher.
In my thoughts and heart I'm wondering. What if I didn't know the truth that God actually wants to prosper me when He clearly said that in the Bible. God must be heartbroken right now for His words had become void.
In one of my fave verses Jeremiah 29:11 it says,
"For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
I say wow in this verse!
Deep inside I want to jump for joy and thank God for this verse. In this verse my hope is ALIVE!
But then , it's so sad. There are still alot of "unbelieving" believers question God's capacity to bless and prosper them. 😞😞😞😔
I don't know how they are able to live from day to day while wearing the badge "Hey I'm a Christian."
I am a Christian.
And my life revolves around my hope in God. That God and Jesus are taking care of me. In your eyes, you might not be able to see it yet but I still rest in His glory...
I declare
"God is my Father.
God is my Provider. ( Psalm 23)
God is my Blesser.
God is my Protector. (Psalm 91)
God is my Healer. (Isaiah 53:4)"
What else do you want to know?
Just look it up in the Bible and you'll know.
As for me, I shall keep on believing that God will keep on blessing me so I can be a blessing to others too!
Halleluyaaah!
Happy Blessed Wednesday everyone!!!

God First Bro
Dear God....
If you think some people don't care about what you're going through right now you're definitely wrong.
I do.
That's why I will pray for you today.
Hang on there. Cuz what you're having right now, though how bad it may look or negative it may sound, it's just temporary and it SHALL come to pass in Jesus mighty name.
Trust me because like you I have been through alot too. But God pulled me through.
And no doubt He will do the same thing to you too!
Just keep your trust in Him ok?
Halleluyaaaah!!!

Beautiful Words From God
My friend Irene shared this beautiful words from God to me...
It has blessed me so much so now I'm gonna share it with you too.
May it bless you and please feel free to SHARE to others can be blessed too.
"I have promised to meet all your needs according to My glorious riches.
Your deepest, most constant need is for My Peace.
I have planted Peace in the garden of your heart, where I live;
but there are weeds growing there too:
pride, worry, selfishness, unbelief.
I am the Gardener, and I am working to rid your heart of those weeds.
I do My work in various ways. When you sit quietly with Me,
I shine the Light of My Presence directly into your heart.
In this heavenly Light, Peace grows abundantly and weeds shrivel up.
I also send trials into your life. When you trust Me in the midst of trouble,
Peace flourishes and weeds die away.
Thank Me for troublesome situations;
the Peace they can produce far outweighs the trials you endure.
Amen.

‘I Am Who I Am’ by Joseph Prince
Exodus 3:14
14 And God said to Moses, “I am who I am.”…
Whatever your challenge is today, whether it is physical, emotional, financial or marital, the great I Am declares to you: “I am to you what you need Me to be.”
Do you need healing? He says, “I am the Lord who heals you. (Exodus 15:26) And as you believe Me, you will see your healing manifest thirtyfold, sixtyfold and a hundredfold.”
Are you groping in the dark, not knowing what to do? He says, “I am the light of the world. (John 8:12) When you walk in Me, you will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”
Are you looking for a way out of a bad situation? He says, “I am your deliverer. I will reach down from on high, take hold of your hand and draw you out of the deep waters.” (Psalm 18:2, 16)
Are you wondering if there is more to life than merely existing from day to day? He says, “I am the resurrection and the life. (John 11:25) I came to give you life. And where there is life, there cannot be death. You will have life and life more abundantly.” (John 10:10)
Are you fearful of what is ahead of you? He says, “I am the good shepherd (John 10:11), who leads you to pastures of tender, green grass and waters of rest. You will not suffer lack.” (Psalm 23:1–3)
Are you confused by the opinions and reports of man? He says, “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last. (Revelation 1:11) I have the final word in your life. The doctors do not have the final word. The experts do not have the final word. I have the first word and the last word in your situation.”
My friend, do not be fearful of the problems you face. The great I Am declares to you, “Fear not! For I am to you what you need Me to be!”
