DEVOTIONAL: PAGTAMO NG KARUNUNGANG MAKA-DIYOS

Many are the plans in a person’s heart,  but it is the Lord’s purpose that prevails.  Proverbs 19:21 Sa mga personal nating buhay ang dami nating alam na kung tayo ba ay umasta, parang bang tayo na ang pinakamagaling sa buong mundo. Parang lahat na ng karunungan ay nasa atin na, kaya minsan hindi naa uso sa atin ang makikinig sa ating kapwa kung maglalahad ito ng katotohanan. At sinasabi pa natin palagi, "basta't wala kang inaapakan tao okay na tayo. Ngunit kahit gaano man tayo kakampante sa ating mga sarili at kung gaano pa kataas ang karunungan ng isang ordinaryong tao at kung ito man ay karunungang makamundo ano ba  kasiguruhang mapapala natin dito?  Makikita natin sa buhay ni Jesuscristo na isang perpekto, kasama Niyang namumuhay ang Kanyang mga disipolo kung ano ang kaibahan nila sa  pagreact sa mga situwasyon dito sa mundo. At higist sa lahat sa mga plano ng Dakilang Diyos Ama. Kaya kung bilib ka lang sa iyong sariling kakayanan at karunungan , kailangan m...

DEVOTIONAL: SARILI AY PALAYAIN, KATOTOHANAN AY TANGGAPIN

Ang pagsisisi ay palaging nasa huli, kaya nga ang mas maigi ay talasan ang isipan para sa katotohanan. Personal na magsisiyasat ng mabuti, puso at isipan ay buksan upang sa huli ay walang pagsisishan. Kadalasan ang pundasyon ng mga pananampalataya ng tao ay base sa mga tradisyon na nakagisnan at makamundong nakasanayan. At ang mas masaklap ay, ito ay base sa isipan ng tao lamang. Sa kasalukukayan napakarami ng relihiyon na nagsusulputan at lahat tama at may padebate pang nalalaman. Diba ganun rin tayo kapag may nagtatanong sa atin ano ba ang relihiyon natin, ay mas proud pa tayo na sasabihin ang pangalan nito kesa pangalan ni Cristo. Napakadali rin sabihin na Kristiyano tayo ngunit pagdating sa katotohanan talaga bang tunay ang kung ano ang sinasabi mula sa ating mga bibig at mga labi? Ginagawa ba natin ang gawain ng isang tunay na Kristiyano o di kaya mas pinipili parin natin hanggang ngayon ang mga doktrina ng isang ordinaryong tao? Ang katotohanan ay nagsasabi sa 1 Juan 2:6, ang sin...

DEVOTIONAL: LEARN AND DISCOVER NEW THINGS WITH CHRIST JESUS

‘Call to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.’  Jeremiah 33:3 NIV Life is all about  learning and discovering new things. There are times that we succeed and sometimes we failed. But the most important is whether you succeed or not, you should  learn from all your failures. Keep moving forward, stay focused and have faith that there are still so many good things that are yet to come for you, to learn and to discover. And it's gonna be yours, a good and a perfect gift from the Lord in a right and perfect time ( James 1:17).  Claim it in Jesus name!  These are the keys to learn and discover new things with assurance. L E A R N L-EARN FROM THE LORD (Matthew 6:33) E-NTRUST EVERYTHING TO GOD (Proverbs 3:5-6) A-CCEPT CORRECTIONS AND LISTEN TO ADVICE (Proverbs 4:10-11& Proverbs 19:20 ) R-EJECT NEGATIVITIES(Romans 12:2) N-URTURE YOURSELF WITH GOD'S WORD (Joshua 1:8) D I S C O V E R D-O NOT STORE UP EARTHLY TREASURES.

DEVOTIONAL: LET GOD CARRY ALL YOUR WORRIES

“A life without Christ Jesus is like a traveler walking in the wilderness without compass, no food, full of hunger and thirst.” It is the Lord Jesus who said that apart from him we can do nothing. We really need to depend and rely in his divine guidance and protection for us to overcome any difficulties including the works of the darkness.   John 15:5“I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. To remain in him means to abide faithfully in his word with a humble heart. And such an amazing promise is given for us if we do so, and we will bear much fruit, emphasizing an eternal blessing of life. But, there might be a time that we may feel dry, weary and burdened, the Lord Jesus himself is inviting us to come straight before him and He promise to give us rest (Matthew 11:28-30). 28 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn f...

DEVOTIONAL: KAILAN KA HULING NAGPAPASALAMAT?

Ano ang rason kung bakit nagpapasalamat ka sa buhay na meron ka? Dahil ba ay punong-puno ka ng mga pagpapala at walang inaalalang problema? Kadalasan kasi kapag may mga problemang dumarating ay nahihirapan tayong magpapasalamat sa Diyos. Ang bilis nating mabubulagan at nawawala sa focus, mas nangingibaw ang pag-aalala base sa kung ano ang ating naramdaman at nakikita. Imbis na mananalangin ng taimtim ay kung anu-ano pa ang pinagagawa. Ang resulta, maiistress ka ng sobra at  di na makakatulog ng maayos. Diba wala namang maitulong ito sa paglutas ng mga problema kundi nadadagdagan pa. Madi depress ka, magkaka anxiety at ang malala magkakasakit kana.  Ito kasi ang makamundong reaksyon na nakasanayan na natin at mahirap buguhin hanggat ang mga salita ng Panginoon ay hindi nananahan sa atin . Kaya isa ito sa mga katuruan sa Bibliya, mula sa mga salita ng Diyos dapat magpapasalamat pa nga tayo sa lahat ng pagkakataon sa buhay. Well, alam natin na hindi lahat ng pagkakataon ay masaya...

DEVOTIONAL: THE ONLY HOPE (PAG-ASA)

As we live in this darken world, our everyday life has no promise that life is going to be easy but the promise from the Lord our God is, he will go with us throughout our journey. “ It is the LORD who goes before you. He will be with you; he will not leave you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed.” Deuteronomy 31:8 ESV But as the Lord has given us this assurance, our part is to make sure, that our lives are aligned according to his will for we know that our God is a Holy God and therefore we as his servants must also keep ourselves being holy, keeping all his teaching in the name of Christ Jesus in our hearts. These are the keys that can give us the fullness of hope to become a successful believer of Christ in all our life journeys. P- PRIORITIZETHE LORD - means  to seek first his kingdom,  living according to his will, righteousness, and spiritual pursuits above all worldly concerns. In Matthew 6:33, where Jesus instructs : “But seek first the kingdom of God a...

DEVOTIONAL: Always Choose To Listen To The Lord Over Your Doubts And Fears

The Lord our God keeps reminding us in His word that His presence is what we all needed. We are in this darken world. When our lives are being caught up with so many struggles, we become anxious and weak. Whether we like it or not, the reality of our lives in this word is really full of different circumstances. But how grateful we are, for the Lord Jesus, our savior gave as the provision of peace, as our refuge and strength against the darkness in this world. John 14:27: "Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. PEACE stands for God's constant... Presence and Protection - Psalm 121:7-8 “The Lord will keep you from all evil; he will keep your life. The Lord will keep your going out and your coming in from this time forth and forevermore.” Empowerment - Philippians 4:13: "I can do all things through him who strengthens me." Assurance - Jeremiah 29:11“For I know t...

DEVOTIONAL: HOLY WEEK REFLECTION

Celebrating Holy week is nothing when our heart and mind are still focusing towards the unpleasant things before our Holy God. To keep his word, his teachings and his commandments are the most important reflection of Holy week alone. Let's check our heart and mind, and ask this very simple question,  AM I DOING THINGS THAT MAKES YOU SMILE LORD? Isaiah 53:5 But He was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon Him, and by His stripes we are healed.   God's mercy and grace for us is so abundant and immeasurable but mostly abused. This time is not a time for rituals, traditions and etc. but a time to wake up, to listen and to obey the truth. Seeking God first to find the real meaning and purpose of life with understanding. Through Him  we have now freedom and have a great chance to make our path straight. Let's not waste our time doing nonsense things and keep on ignoring his words but to keep word in our ...

DEVOTIONAL: ALWAYS SUBMIT TO GOD BY FAITH AND NOT ON YOUR OWN MINDSET

Are you a kind of a person who is an overthinker? Overthinking is a negative mind habit toward uncertain things/situation that can really have negative effect towards our faith. As Christ believers we are being encourage by the truth to always live by faith not by sight. This is the power of our faith, even if it is small as a mustard seed, biblically, it is still more powerful to make things possible including the impossible. Why not change this habit into a good habit by exercising our faith? Let's make a habit of prayer, having quality time with God together not just because we wanted to get something, but because prayer is our life. We are worried of so many things that can be seen but are only temporary. Overthinking about every challenging situation we face. Mostly for the future, but the truth is who holds our future? If our faith believes that, our Heavenly Father has prepared our good future and nothing can ever take it nor destroy it in Jesus name, then, let’s sta...
