As I WaLk ThRoUgH LiFe


As I WaLk ThRoUgH LiFe….
AS I walk through life, i understand a lot of things and God put in my heart that life is not a coincidence..but it is a reflection of YOU..in other words it’s the echo of life as we walk with the Lord(Testemony)..I really thank God for his Love that endureth forever, His grace and mercy that is new every morning,his PEACE that passes all understanding,great is thy faithfulness…
Today and the days to come I’m giving thanks for God’s overwhelming Generosity and faithfulness in my life,the scripture says..In everything give thanks,it’s been a trials,testings or even a blessings..praise his name and give thanks unto HIM.. After the WIN camp (Warrior Intercessors Network) and the second time ’round of encounter last November 24,2007.(hmmmm..everything works all together for good hehehe!!Valectorian po ako..) God spoke to my heart that it is through him that we have recieve grace,the unmerited favor..and let us promote obedience to the faith and make disciples for his name’s sake among all nations. Through Jesus,therefore, Let us continually offer to God a sacrifice of praise _ the fruit of lips that confess his name.."praise God…
Everything in my life that flows out of love has come to me from God. Life that is good has been initiated by God. God has done everything to me, from a filty rugs to a spotless soul, His blessings are limitless, His love is endless. No one favored me more than God. He has removed every stain of my sin, He has cleansed all the defilement of my iniquity, and he has silenced every voice of condemnation that hung over my head. He has saved me, redeemed me, and justified me. All of God’s grace abounds towards me, all of Christ’s riches are made available to me, and all spiritual blessings are provided for me. In Christ, I have received the treasures that can never be taken away, the HOPE that can never fade away, and the LIFE that will never pass away.
As I walk with JESUS day by day, I will find that my thankfulness to Him is an ever-increasing symphony of praise, building into a lifelong cresendo of gratitude that flows from my heart to His. I who have so little,have recieved so much, because He has been so generous. There are so many riches that He has given to me; so many answers to prayer that He has granted to me; so many kindnesses that He has manifested to me; so many joys that He has provided for me; so many mercies that He has extended to me; so many benefits that He has showered upon me. Everything I have has come from Him, and that is the reason why my heart can be so greatful.
I thank Him today because- He formed me and made me. He has given me the breath of life. He has given me this day and the days ahead. He is working in me to become all that He has intended me to be. He has working everything in my life together for the good. He is using my defficulties and trials to conform me to his image and strengthen me of my faith that in any cercumstances in life i have joy and peace deep within me because i know that he promisses that he wil never leave me nor foresake me.
I thank Him today for- the forgiveness of my sins. The peace that passes all underestanding. The smiles that have to my face because His joy in my heart. The comfort of His presence that has quieted my heart and calmed me. The hope that is in me because He has promised to always be with me. The place in heaven that He has reserved and has prepared for me. I thank Him today with- words of exaltation. Songs of celebration, a heart of strong devotion. Thoughts of deep reflection, Acts of admiration, clasp of loud ovation..I praise Him forevermore….he is awesome! marvelous!magnifecent! and nothing compares to Him. As I come back to surrender and intrust my life unto him he has given me the new robe, a robe of light and righteousness, a ring that significe, that He has given me the authority and inheritance and a shoes that significe to walk in his path of righteousness and to preach his good news to the poor(souls)…now ..my heart shout for joy and gladness and sings a hymn of praise unto his Holy name..hallilujah!!praise the Lord..God is LOVE….Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him" 1 John 4:16
to God be the Glory…

We ArE WiReD FoR GoD





WE ARE WIRED FOR GOD


Without forgiveness, our lives would be hopeless because our connection with God would be broken forever. Like buildings wired for electricity, we are "wired" for God. But sin breaks that connection. Without God's forgiveness, we would be like a city that has suddenly gone dark because of an irreparable break in its electrical grid. Because of God's great compassion and his desire to restore our vital connection to him, he graciously extends forgiveness to anyone who asks and who is also willing to extend it to others. In the New Testament, Paul views forgiveness not just as the removal of guilt for past sins but as deliverance from the power of sin itself. The primary Greek word in the New Testament for divine forgiveness is aphesis. It is the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ that brings forgiveness for all who belong to him.
