The End of Man..is the Beginning of God


REVIVAL

REVIVAL is basically saying this :

IF YOU BELIEVE…
JESUS CAN.
The end of man is the beginning of God. We have tried our way, our methods, our smartness..yet this life seems to just get out of control ! 
Many times, it is pride that makes us stick to the wrong path. Thinking that its about me/us. Its never that. It is never about  just us. The Fear of God is the beginning of REVIVAL (WISDOM). 
We were created for a purpose– to WORSHIP God. Jesus took our broke the curse of SIN and in Him reconciled us back to God. For one purpose only, that we will live to Him only.

You Can Believe

YOu CAn Believe


Jesus said to him, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.” (Mark 9:23)

Yesterday (2/9/11), as I was cooking dinner for my family, God said something to me. He said, "just because something troubles me today, we must never forget what God has done yesterday and what He will do tomorrow". In fact God is the God of today too and it is in days like this who we are really are shows its true colors. 
I was at a Benny Hinn Crusade in Adelaide many years ago. Was a new Christian then. First time attending a miracle crusade. I was of course sceptical but wanting to believe. As I was witnessing the miracles, I was struggling to accept it as genuine. There God said something to me. He said whether I believe or not its up to me.
I decided that I want to believe. It was in 1997, that I had a terrible splitting headache and realised the left side of my face was swollen. I could not sleep as the pain was unbearable. So I got up, to watch TV. It was some Christian program with Marilyn HIckey on it. She was testifying that she was needing to preach that evening but she has a cold and her throat was troubling her. So she prayed every hour for God to heal her..and God did heal her.
So, I was in pain..I had nothing to lose. So I talked to God..I said to Him, I was going to pray like that ..every hour I will ask God to heal me..until He healed me. I did that for the whole of the next day. Pain the entire day, went to the dentist that morning. The dentist told me it was sinus infections and that if it did not get better, I may have to get tests done.
So went back home and kept on praying. That evening, I read Psalms 103 and as I begin to worship God...I remember the song I sang.."No other name but the name of Jesus"...God told me to put my left hand on my cheeks. That's what I did.. The moment I did that, a very warm sensation filled my entire body ! Then I realised the pain had stopped. I knew that I was ok. 
It was the following day, that when I was blowing my nose...the inflamation came out totally. 
Jesus healed me ! Of course that was not the only miracle I've received. Till today, God always shows Himself strong . As David declared to Goliath in 1 Sam 17:46  
"This day the LORD will deliver you into my hand,..."
The lady with the issue of blood said, if only I can touch the hem of His garment, I will be healed ! 
Nothing is ever impossible to them that believe in Jesus..Jesus is not your means to the miracle..He is the miracle. He is our more than enough !
To people that are sceptical, don't remain sceptical all your life and miss out on life. What a waste to never try and see if all Jesus is true or not. I tasted, and now I believe ! today I serve my Lord with my life ! No regrets !

I will invest in that, because it was loved...

 I will invest in that, because it was loved...

I just want to add this note because something someone said really makes more than sense to me. It was someone wanting to invest in property. Saw many options..but chose the not the first or the third..but the second one to dump RM1 Million into. The person's statement really had me thinking. This person chose the 2nd option, because...that property was "loved by the owners".

This got me thinking about the word Passion. This is not some exhaustive research or study done..but just by observation and opinion. Why do people love Ferraris ? Is it because of its price and the status it gives to the owner ? Or is it the passion that goes into building Ferraris that it carries the name of the founder. Why some other car companies are describe as building washing machines and dish washers on wheels..is it because they are just that..appliances on wheels.

Its the same for food. Passion of the chefs can be experienced in the food itself. From the quality of ingredients, to the care put into preparation, timing, controlling of temperatures and oh before all the the training gone into the person. Or has it got to do with the person's heart (his thoughts and feelings).


All in all, a successful person is one that wants to succeed and will discard dead works, dead faiths, dead attitudes and begin to pay the price to achieve. All this comes by dying to self every single day...and the fruit of all their labour is the by product of their lives ! 


Isn't that who  God is. He took it upon Himself to step out of heaven, walk 33 years on earth. Knows that He is not here to reign as King but to walk this life as a suffering servant. Why ? because only His death and resurrection ..only through His pain, can we gain...He gave it all to share with us all that HE IS...You see, passionate people are never selfish..but most of the time what they do often is for the benefit of others.


The Lord leads us in Path of Righteousness for His name sake..because He not only gave us His name..He gave us Himself. We bear His image everywhere we go. Jesus is so proud of YOU. 

Now, this life that we live in Him,..where HE IS LORD..we are stewards..stewards are people who manages that which belongs to the master...What would you put your name on in this life ?

Don't live this life aimless and empty anymore. Break-IN to Breakthrough !

In Him was Life and the Life was the Light of Man

  What does it mean that Jesus was the light of man? I asked God yesterday (21/1/21).  There is only 2 points to interpret Scripture as fou...

YOU NEED JESUS
