Rising Above Your Circumstances

I know how to be abased, and I know how to abound. Everywhere and in all things I have learned both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need. Philippians 4:12

The apostle Paul wrote his letter to the Philippians during a long and unjust imprisonment. But, even though Paul is suffering, this short epistle is full of rejoicing. Paul never complains or blames other for his situation because he learned to live above his… Continue

Need or Desire?

And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:19

When we read the above passage and apply it to our daily lives, we must be careful to interpret it correctly. For that to happen, we must understand the difference between "needs" and "desires."

A need is something that is essential for us to develop into who God wants us to be or to accomplish the things He calls us to do. On the other hand, a… Continue

THE NEW WINE...

The WINE cellar!......Saint Bernard of ClairvauxShare

Today at 1:29am

The king led me into the wine-cellar, he set love in order in me.’ The words of the proposed text seem to mean that after the bride had achieved her desire of sweet and intimate conversation with her beloved, she returned, at his departure, to the maidens so refreshed and animated in speech and appearance that she looked drunken. And when they, surprised at this novelty, asked for the reason, she answered that it is… Continue

The Secret Of a Successful Life

The secular people always have a certain thought that their success is only for temporary, for example by the time they’ve got retired, they’ll think that they loose their life function and feel abandoned.

We, as Christian (=followers of Christ ), are the people who rely on our lives to Christ, always surrender ourselves to HIM, as we believe that success will always along with us until the end of our lives.

The bible writes down the key to gain success, which are :

I… Continue

Thanks For What?

Here's a story written by Bob Perks

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

It's not an easy task to find yourself heading into the holidays when there's little joy in your life.

It had been a bad year, one that would be remembered for the loss of two loved ones, a year that saw financial despair and job loss.

Then there were the health issues. Not everyday concerns, but… Continue

Farewell Pastor Billy Joe Daugherty

"We are sad to lose the presence of our pastor, shepherd, father and brother. We are thankful, however, for his life, love and influence on the individuals and ministries he inspired for the last 30 years." (statement of church leaders of Victory Christian Center in Tulsa, Oklahoma) Read more..

FEEDING FROM THE WRONG SOURSE

Over the last few days the Lord has lain this on my heart

Many times whilst praying for my country and cities he has shown me the strongmen over theses places This same thing applies over all the world not just here in New Zealand

I have seen the strongman holding the church in his arms like a baby soothing the baby rubbing its back holding it to his breast hugging the baby just as a mother holds an infant to her breast feeding it… Continue

" Has The Bible Been Changed .....?"

"Has the Bible Been Changed?"

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Muslims and Christians alike carry strong convictions regarding their holy books. Muslims believe the Qur'an was revealed to them by God without error, and that it has not been changed over time by humans. It has been protected by God for the preserving and spreading of the Muslim faith throughout the future. Christians hold these same convictions to… Continue

Give Thanks - Everyday!

Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name. Psalms 100:4

The Bible instructs us, “In everything give thanks; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus” (1 Thessalonians 5:18) That directive might seem easy when life is going well. But if painful circumstances arise, expressing gratitude can become difficult.

It’s interesting to note that this instruction to thank the Lord… Continue

Who will not bring glory to Your Name?

'Who will not fear you, O Lord, and bring glory to Your Name?' - Revelation 15:4

The victors who remained standing 1900 years ago or during the Middle Ages, the victors of yesterday, of today and also of tomorrow, sing the song of Moses and ask: 'Who will not fear You, O Lord, and bring glory to Your Name?' (Rev 15:4). Look at Revelation 15:1-4, the answer would be: Those who do not fear the Lord - who don't try to know Him better, consult Him, or worship Him with thankfulness and… Continue

Thank you, God

A prayer~

Good Morning, Father.

It is the day before Thanksgiving, and I should like to get out of the maelstrom of activity in and around me, and say ‘thank you.’ Oh, God, how easy, how normal it is to concern myself more with what is around me, than a ready awareness of your greatness. As I open the psalms, David’s words elevate my thinking: "The Lord reigns, he is robed in majesty; the Lord is robed in majesty and is armed with strength"1

Teach me how to rightly… Continue

Being Saved

Jesus has saved my life more than once. But one time in peculiar will always stay in my heart. I thought my mom was being too hard on me. My classmates were being more mean then normal. I couldn’t cry because my mom and dad would yell at me for it, so I kept all the pain inside. After awhile, I needed a way to release my pain without anyone finding out. I started to cut myself. I cut myself on my shoulders, and on the tops of my feet. It felt so good to me. It made it where I could feel. I… Continue

Choose Today Whom You Will Serve

One of my favourite character in the Bible is Joshua. I admire how he challenged the Israelites to choose whom they will serve. Joshua made a definite stand! A powerful one. Against the odds. He must have been rediculed, persecuted, and abandoned. His decision was unpopular to many people who chose to worship their idols, their wealth, their jobs, and their possessions.

Joshua was a military leader, a prophet, a judge. He was a man of influence. A spy. A war strategist famous for… Continue
