You know, you can continue doing this and continue to wonder why people don't want to talk or respond to you when the problem is the way you respond.

Up to you if you think you're above everyone else.

God's power and strength works through Faith

QUOTE
Ephesians 1:18-19 (NIV) - 18 I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which he has called you, the riches of his glorious inheritance in his holy people, 19 and his incomparably great power for us who believe. That power is the same as the mighty strength 


Many time we forgot and many time we don't know how important Faith is, until the day come nothing ever work in our Christian life. That's the time when we start to wonder in contemplation.... why.
Some of us have been dependant on the things that we do, thinking that because we do what the Father ask, he will reward our prayers based on our performance of obedience. We forgot that Father is gracious to both the righteous and the unrighteous. Because God is truly graceful, he answer his people even at time when his own did not do exactly as told.

Take Moses case for example, when God told him to speak to the rock for water to come out, he beat the rock instead out of his frustration and anger and you know what? God still caused the water to come out from the rock and bar him from entering the promised land as a result. We need to understand this is not God's best for us. So what is the problem UW, since God still answer? Here is the problem. A time may come, When God decide to hold back the answer until you learn to exercise your Faith.


When Father God says in

Hebrews 10:38 (NIV) - And, "But my righteous one will live by faith. And I take no pleasure in the one who shrinks back."

God really means it. Faith is tantamount to everything for a believer of Christ. It is so important that in the book of James, it's record like this;

James 1:6-8 (NIV) - 6 But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. 7 That person should not expect to receive anything from the Lord. 8 Such a person is double-minded and unstable in all they do.

First we need to established that the dunamis power of God work through Faith. ( Romans 1:16 (NIV) - For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Gentile.) Salvation here means not only eternal life but an encompassing definition of wholeness, fruitfulness, healing, preservation, providence, protection, etc.

And secondly, God wants us to live a consistent life of believing everyday. (Hebrews 10:38-39 (NIV) - And, "But my righteous one will live by faith. And I take no pleasure in the one who shrinks back. But we do not belong to those who shrink back and are destroyed, but to those who have faith and are saved.") Destroy here can refer to 2 things. One is Eternal Separation from God and a place of barrenness, no fruit, ie - no results.

Thirdly, God does not want us to doubt when we believe. (James 1:6-8 (NIV) - 6 But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. 7 That person should not expect to receive anything from the Lord. 8 Such a person is double-minded and unstable in all they do.) Believers who allow doubt to rule their life will always be tossed by the winds, meaning you're neither here nor there. You will live a confused un-spiritual life, not knowing neither understanding God.

Earlier I've shared the principal of speaking to the mountains as one of the reason why we're not seeing results in our Christian life. Here lies another principal. We have allowed doubt to come into our Christian life.

I hope dear readers, you will take the time to read and digest the word of the living God in the scripture verse above, as to why Faith is so important.

God Bless.

The idea is: if you wrote, it's different.

There's always pros and cons of mass migration anyway.

But it's an opportunity for the church to expand its influence. Whether the migrants are genuine believers, that's up to God. Because a lot of these "migrants" became Christians for the easy way out to get employment, etc..

God, a Mighty Fortress!

QUOTE
2 Samuel 22:3 (NIV) - my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation. He is my stronghold, my refuge and my savior-- from violent people you save me. 


In this ever increasing crazy world, the evil of Man can at times oppress and depress others. When we look at the violence and evil inclination of the heart of Man, we find no comfort that this is a safe world. Not for our children, not for our family.

The bible says the work of Satan is to Kill, Steal and Destroy.

This was true back then, it is true now. Ever since the fall of Man and the rebellion of God's fallen angel, Satan has brought nothing but destruction. They have never stop working to corrupt the order of this world and Man. Many times we've forgotten behind the scenes of this perverse world, is the work of Satan. I've always believe the place where the enemy has a stronghold and when God's people pray and a breakthrough is about to happen, the enemy will defy in greater measure by wreaking havoc and destruction so that people will lose hope and give up.

Malaysia has never seen such perverse evil in it's history. We know who are behind the strife of this country and no they are not flesh and blood. And thus, I believe because of that, someone is praying in this country. Somewhere there's a Prayer warrior or a Godly woman on her knees, praying for the well being of this country and their prayers is shaking up many things.

Despite of the depressing incidents happening, despite of the fear of this life, despite of the uncertainty of the future, you child of God have hope.

King David knew this hope. Even though He is king, with all the resources and power at his disposal, he still at the end chooses to put his trust in God who loves Him. Not in his riches, not in his sovereign power as king, not in his own strength. King Saul wanted to kill him, even David's own Man wanted to kill Him. David was always surrounded by uncertainty most of his life and yet He persevere in life because He believed and knew God. At one time when King David was surrounded by people who's about to take this life, David tired and cast down, encouraged himself in the Lord. (KJV). Another translation says He strengthened himself in the Lord.

That has always intrigued me. How can you encourage yourself in God, unless you really knew who God is. David knew who, his God is. The God who watches over his life, who answered his prayers, who protected his life and who has provided all that he needed, a God who brings all thing to work together for him. That is the God whom King David, encouraged himself with.

David sang a song in 2 Samuel 22:3, after God delivered him from Saul.

my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation. He is my stronghold, my refuge and my savior-- from violent people you save me. 

To King David, God is his place of Refuge, a Safe Place of Stronghold like a watch Tower.

I encourage dear brethrens, in trying times like today, come to God for refuge and be like David. Say like David;
my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation. He is my stronghold, my refuge and my savior!

Is it just mere words to comfort you? No. Dear Friends, our God is a living God who cannot lie. He conforms to the truth and promises of his word. Take hold of 2 Samuel 22:3, declare it by faith then act by faith and see the Salvation of the Lord manifest in your life!

God Bless!

Oh, for agriculture purposes. Geez, doesn't these people heard of pesticides?

de1929, please educate your fellow Indonesians to not burn more grass.

Oh, what's that Chinese festivals where they burn some papers and stuffs? My neighour got annoyed when I doused off the fire...hehe...

I remembered my first time in Malaysia, it was during June or July, the haze were pretty bad. Every year after that, I will go back to Europe to escape the haze.
