Youth: Keep the light shining.

Read Jeremiah 1; 1 Timothy 4:12

 Here in the Philippines, most teenagers have a mindset to focus on their GOALS first before GOD. Instead of pursuing their divine destiny, they are heavily influenced by MEDIA, WRONG-FRIENDSHIPS AND INFLUENCES and RESENTMENTS from their PAST. What's the result?

Destruction in the end. Let us examine Jeremiah.

Call to shine your light

We are called to shine His light all over the Earth. Reading Jeremiah, I can compare myself to Him.

Reason? He's young, and when God called Him into ministry, HE DOUBTED.

Have we been trying to hinder God's plan over us by making excuses?

This is Jeremiah's response (from Jeremiah 1:6; ERV)

 Then I said, “But, Lord God, I don’t know how to speak. I am only a boy.”

 

This is God's response (Jeremiah 1:7-8; ERV)

 

“Don’t say, ‘I am only a boy.’
    You must go everywhere I send you
    and say everything I tell you to say.
 Don’t be afraid of anyone.
    I am with you, and I will protect you.”
This message is from the Lord.

 

Right mindset and heart

We should remind ourselves that serving God is not boring, God reminds us to have a heart which calls out of LOVE not out of obligation. This is one of the wrong mindset- thinking serving God as an obligations and follow a set-of-rules. It should abound in love.

 

Encouragements for Youths: Even though you are young, LET GOD use you. Surrender your dreams and desires unto Him.

 

As what the verse in 1 Timothy 4:12 says:

 

You are young, but don’t let anyone treat you as if you are not important. Be an example to show the believers how they should live. Show them by what you say, by the way you live, by your love, by your faith, and by your pure life.

 

Keep your light shining! God bless. 

Powerful Combination



His mercies are new every morning

 

Praise be to God! His mercies are new every morning. Good day for all of us. Did you know just by worshipping and praying to God, It increases the works of the Holy Spirit. The more we praise and live what Jesus has commanded in love, the more we are advancing the kingdom of God! It is releasing the fullness and purpose of God to Earth.

 

You and the Holy Spirit make a powerful combination

 

This morning, ask the Holy Spirit to reveal what's on God's heart and let Him guide you. He's living inside of you. That's a miracle! You and the Holy Spirit make a powerful combination. When you were slave to sin, you have no power to heal the sick, cast out demons, or resist temptation. We must be more aware of His goodness. The word of God says that goodness follows you all the days of your life. (Psalms 23) 

 

Your guide, comforter

 

If you got lonely before you got saved,  it takes hours, days or weeks for it to naturally go away. Now that you have Him inside of you, you can just ask Him to take away that emotion by saying "Holy Spirit, thank you for the joy." It will go away rapidly. You must work together with Him.  So I say, let the Holy Spirit guide your lives. Then you won't be doing what your sinful nature craves. (Galatians 5:16 NLT)

 

Let me just end this message with this verse:

 

"But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness."

 

Galatians 5:22 (NLT)

Efforts in the LORD (Part 2)

PART 1 HERE

3. The Lord does not look at your abilities, but at your heart.

1 Samuel 16:7 What matters most is the heart. Matthew 6:21 Your heart will be where your treasure is.

4. All that we do for the LORD will last forever.

In this world, we give effort to things that last. We give extra effort to our work, studies, career..
If we can give effort to things that last, why not give effort to things that will last forever? What you do for the LORD will be eternal. Let us not miss the opportunity of serving Him. Only in the Lord can we find the true meaning of joy.

PART 3 HERE

Efforts in the LORD

We should know that we serving the Lord is not boring. Why?

1. Our efforts in the LORD is never wasted.

God assures that. (1 Corinthians 15:58)

2. God will never fail you.

Everytime we give our time to the LORD, if we don't succeed, it does not mean we failed.
We need to do our part for Him. Whenever we serve God, obstacle will come. Continue serving Him and in the end you'll be victorious.

Isn't that powerful? PART 2 HERE

Words and Declarations.

"Death and life are in the power of the tongue, and those who love it will eat its fruit. Proverbs 18:21 NKJV

 

In your tongue, it may speak out life or death. Your words have power. Let us remind ourselves  to have self-control and ask the Holy Spirit to guide us in every word we speak. For example, you're taking a test, and you might say: "This test is hard". Generally, you're declaring that the test will be hard. That negative word can give Satan an open door for him to enter in your life. Brothers and sisters in Christ, let's keep watch in our actions. Don't give Satan an open door in your life.

 

Declare those Bible verses out loud daily. They are powerful declarations for they come from the word of God itself, which is so powerful that can be used as a weapon for spiritual warfare. Having financial problems? Say out these verses daily:

 

You are Jehovah-Jireh, my provider (Gen. 22:14)

Wealth and riches are in my house because I fear You and delight greatly in Your commandments (Ps. 112:1–3)

I am Your servant, Lord. Prosper me (Neh. 1:11).

Th e God of heaven will prosper me (Neh. 2:20). I live in the prosperity of the King (Jer. 23:5).

Th rough Your favor I will be a prosperous person (Gen. 39:2).

 Lord, You have called me, and You will make my way prosperous (Isa. 48:15).

 

There are a lot of more promises to be claimed from the Bible. THE BIBLE HAS EVERYTHING YOU NEED. From financial advices, to healing and prosperity promises, and a lot more. You should start or continue to read His word. to  As a testimony, I kept declaring those out everyday and God gave me favor in my job. I got a pay increase. We need to focus on God because he's our provider. Declarations are powerful.

Dealing with discouragements

Good Day! How's life so far? Are you even encountering problems, challenges or disappoinments maybe? The question is, how would you even handle them?

 

First, we must always remember God's promises.

Humans as we are, we are forgetful. Satan or the devil would really try to steal those promises from God. For example, Satan will make you doubt and question God's word. This is Satan's old trick. We should always remember God's word and proclaim this always. When problems and adversity arises, sometimes instead of turning to God for help first, we sometimes doubt and question Him. We sometimes ask advice from the wrong people or even turn to the ways of this world just to relief or escape the agony of that problem. Just for example, the drunkards on the streets. They just got drunk all day not minding or solving their problems. They asked for advice from their friends and got the wrong one.

 

An example who trusted God: Job

 It does not mean if God sends you problems He does not love you anymore. Everything He does is in line with His Perfect Will.  Did you know that this problems in life strengthen your faith in God.

Even Job in the Bible trusted God when everything in his possession was taken away. In his story, God tested the faith of Job. God took everything of his property and he even got sick. He has the option to just do nothing and drink. He has the option to mock God for the problems and disappointments but he did not. Instead, he praised God for the situation.  Look at his life, when he trusted and praised God for his trials and problems, knowing God is with him, a great breakthrough happened! He even got richer, even got hundredfolds of blessing.

Are you tired?

When you are tired of everything and you want to quit, always put this in your mind:

"A good fighter with a great faith in GOD will never ever be a loser"
Be reminded. GOD IS ALWAYS GOOD.

The Anointed Prophet

By Unkow Ormelliada 07/31/13

This is a continuation of The Anointed King.  Jesus Christ is our Anointed King. He is also our Anointed Prophet. Why? Find out below.

The Anointed King

By Unkow Ormelliada 07/21/13

What is Messiah? The title Messiah came from the Hebrew word, "Mashiach". The Greek and Latin word for Messiah is "Cristos". Its equivalent word in English is "Christ" which means the Savior of the world. In the old testament, God told how He would send the messiah to rescue His people, to make everything right, and to destroy evil.

There's hope for humanity

So right, sin entered the world. Through sin, there are a lot of consequences. What about now? Is there a living hope? Find out more below. This is a continuation of the topic, Humanity has fallen.

Spiritual Warfare

Welcome! How's your day? We'll be talking about a battle within you. Let's get this started. Prepare your hearts and ask God to give you revelation and protect you. This is a very serious topic all of us should know and be aware of.

Problems?

In what color would you describe your week?  Having problems in your life lately? Let us listen to His voice and His words. Do not solve your own problems without asking for His help. It would be a foolish thing to do if we do not submit and surrender our problems to our all-knowing God. Despite all unfavorable situations and problems in your life, why not thank the Lord?

Have a time of prayer

Prayer. It is your key to a personal relationship with God. He is interested in every word you that we all say. He delights when we, His children are talking to Him. The Bible teaches us to pray without ceasing. Prayer will never get boring because if we are in His presence, it is a very powerful experience that all of us would want, only God can satisfy our desires, not even the world can satisfy it. Prayer is just like we’re talking to God. The only moment prayer can get boring and tiresome if it lacks love and commitment.

God's Faithfulness

These are words of encouragements about God's love towards us. The more we know Him, the more we seek Him, the more we realize that God is good.

Will of God

It is so great if we depend on the Holy Ghost on His guidance. We need to put on in mind that God doesn't make mistakes. He is like a Father. He wants what is best for His children. He is very much willing to be involved in your life and He is willing to guide you.
