Worship God

God has given us His Son Jesus Christ to die for our sins. God loves us and cares for us. Our response to Him is to love Him and worship Him. Jesus taught us that the greatest command is to "love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength".

We can express our love to God by telling God that we love Him. One way to do this is through worship, through singing and through music. The Bible says "Sing to the Lord". We can praise God for Who He is; we can praise God for what He has done in our lives.

Have fellowship with fellow Christian. We need to have fellowship with one another as we worship the Lord. This will strengthen our relationship with one another beside building up one's faith in the Lord.

The Way To Salvation

If you have accepted Christ as your Lord and Savior,
you can be sure you are a Christian.
You are not a Christian because you go to church,
or because you do good things.
The Bible says "If you confess with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,'
and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead,
you will be saved" (Romans 10:9).
Christ came to die for our sins, so that "To all who received Him,
to those who believed in His name,
He gave the right to become children of God" (John 1:12 ).

Watchfulness

Examination is coming soon. Are you ready? My teacher often said out these sentences.
It was true, when one day my teacher gave our class a surprise test.
I did badly. Feeling so depress, I broke into tears upon collecting my paper.
But my tears mean nothing to me.

The second coming of the Lord is near.
To separate the wheat and the weed
To judge the living and the death.
What will be your answer?

Jesus is standing at the door and knock
If you hear His voice and open the door of your heart
He will come in to stay as your Lord and Saviour.

Billy Graham's Prayer For Our Nation

Know that the world is going its way to destruction as in the time of Sodom and Gomorrah.
Consciously or unconsciously, we are committing sins of all kinds. Now, let us come to our Lord Jesus asking for His forgiveness. Say this prayer of confession, acknowledging our sins and transgression. The Lord promises us in 1 John 1:9:

"If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness."

'Heavenly Father, we come before you today to ask your forgiveness and to seek your direction and guidance. We know Your Word says, 'Woe to those who call evil good,' but that is exactly what we have done. We have lost our spiritual equilibrium and reversed our values. We have exploited the poor and called it the lottery. We have rewarded laziness and called it welfare.. We have killed our unborn and called it choice. We have shot abortionists and called it justifiable. We have neglected to discipline our children and called it building self esteem. We have abused power and called it politics.. We have coveted our neighbor's possessions and called it ambition. We have polluted the air with profanity and pornography and called it freedom of expression. We have ridiculed the time-honored values of our forefathers and called it enlightenment. Search us, Oh God, and know our hearts today; cleanse us from every sin and Set us free. Amen!'

FORGIVENESS

During Jesus time on earth, not less than one time He reminds his followers about forgiving each fellow man. An illustration He made: If a man hurts you seven times a day. Each time that man hurts you he asks for forgiveness. Jesus said, you must forgive that person. A little bit curious, Peter asked: "Does it mean that we must forgive a person up to seven times a day?" Jesus replied: "Not only seven times but seventy times seven times."

From this message we learn a lesson that we must forgive each others' sin continuously without any condition. Often we human being have conditions in forgiving others. The first time a person hurts us, we say: its alright. The second time, we said: you should be careful. The third time he hurts, we said to him: Don't you ever hurt me again or else I will hurt you back. This situation happens to each and everyone of us. Our condition of forgiving others is limited to three times.

Let us think about Jesus when He was hang on the cross where people hurled curses on him beside hurting his body. Do you know what was His reply? "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do." In the same way when Stephen was stoned to death. Before he breathed his last he cried out in a loud voice: "Lord, do not charge them with this sin." Jesus and Stephen set two examples for us to follow. Not to keep people's wrong deeds but to be reconciled to each other.

Forgive means to humble oneself to each other or to say "sorry". If we submit ourselves to each other as Jesus submit himself by allowing people to nail him on the cross, there will be peace in this world.

Finally, learn to forgive and to bless others.

Human Being

Fighting and quarreling occur everywhere,
Killing his fellow man become a normal activity,
Triumphant...yet losing ones life, a person, God creation,
God created man in His own image,
But...why killing and destroying each other?

Who are you to destroy God's creation?
Do you know that killing means murder?
What is the penalty for murdering?
Do you know that you are responsible upon your brother's blood?

A set of law is made,
To bring to justice the convicted one.
It is not wrong for the law to hold a knife,
To punish the convicted one.

The bible said:
Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities,
for there no authority except that which God has established.
For rulers hold no terror for those who do right
but for those who do wrong.

But if you do wrong, be afraid,
for he does not bear the sword for nothing.

Salvation

Celebrate Jesus Christ’s Glorious Resurrection

I often ask myself where I’d be today had I not met Jesus in 1972. Frankly, I don’t even want to think about it, for my life would be empty now and meaningless.

I’ve said to the Lord numerous times, “It would have been better to never have been born than to not have met You.”

He has given my life glorious meaning and fulfillment and satisfied me beyond measure.

Truly the richest man without Jesus is poor, and the poorest man with Jesus is rich. The songwriter said it beautifully when he wrote:

You are my everything,
You are my all;
You are my everything
Both great and small.
You gave Your life for me
And made everything new.
Jesus, You are my everything,
And I love you.

The World Longs for His Peace
Millions of men, women, and children around the world are starving for this glorious peace that you and I know on a daily basis. This peace that passes all understanding—this peace that you and I have known since our salvation—is what humanity is crying for. And the joy that you and I know daily is what the world is crying for continually.

Think about the billions of dollars humanity spends looking for joy and peace, yet this joy and peace comes only through Jesus. And somebody’s got to tell them.

That somebody is you and me.

For the Lord has called you and me to preach the glorious Gospel of salvation to the nations, and truly our time is running out.

This message from Benny Hinn Ministry really touches me. I feel that there is some one outside there who needs to share the blessing of this message with me.

Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.
