As I Hear

John 5:30 (KJV) “I can of mine own self do nothing: as I hear, I judge: and my judgment is just; because I seek not mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent me.”

Mark 10:51 “What do you want me to do for you?” Jesus asked. “My Rabbi,” the blind man said, “I want to see!” (emphasis added). How do you think Jesus would have felt to hear this blind man using the lingo of the core? Read the rest of this entry

Where Are You?

Mark 10:51 “What do you want me to do for you?” Jesus asked. “My Rabbi,” the blind man said, “I want to see!” (emphasis added).

Today, we will start with a graphic representation of the levels of relationships in Jesus’ life. If you are in God’s Favourite House and you have done the Journey, you will be familiar with the concentric circles used to describe the levels of commitment. Read the rest of this entry

His Voice, His Word!

Ps.103:20-21 (NKJV) “Bless the Lord, you His angels, Who excel in strength, who do His word, Heeding the voice of His word. Bless the Lord, all you His hosts, You ministers of His, who do His pleasure.” (emphasis added).

The second reward of relentless calling is, we hear His voice. The beauty of hearing God’s voice is, His voice carries His Word. I know some of us are thinking, what else would His voice carry? I will explain. Read the rest of this entry

Hesed!

Ex.34:6 “And the Lord passed before him and proclaimed, “The Lord, the Lord God, merciful and gracious, longsuffering, and abounding in goodness and truth”

Please read Ex.33:12-23 and Ex.34:1-6. It is the story about Moses’ exchange with God. Moses asked God to show him His glory and God put Moses in a rock and passed before him. As the Lord passed by, He proclaimed His own Names, “The Lord, the Lord God, Read the rest of this entry

Reconciled

Col.1:22 “Yet now he has reconciled you to himself through the death of Christ in his physical body. As a result, he has brought you into his own presence, and you are holy and blameless as you stand before him without a single fault.”

 

Before the throne of God above, I have a strong and perfect plea

A great High Priest whose name is love, who ever lives and pleads for me

My name is graven on His hands, my name is written on His heart

I know that while in heav’n He stands, no tongue can bid me thence depart… Read the rest of this entry

See & Push

Ps.144:1-2 (Voice) “Blessed be the Eternal, my rock. He trains my hands for war, gives me the skills I need for battle. He is my unfailing love and my citadel. He is my tower of strength and my deliverer. He is my shield of protection and my shelter…”

Not many people know the story behind the way I hold my pen. It is neither fashion nor am I trying to create a new way of writing. I had an exam and I had read from six o’clock in the evening to six o’clock in the morning. Read the rest of this entry

Look Beyond

Heb.12:2 (Voice) “Now stay focused on Jesus, who designed and perfected our faith. He endured the cross and ignored the shame of that death because He focused on the joy that was set before Him; and now He is seated beside God on the throne, a place of honor” (emphasis added).  

Jesus was able to say, “Up, let’s be going. Look, my betrayer is here!” (Matt.26:46) because He focused on what was beyond the cross. You have to see beyond your current pain and suffering. Read the rest of this entry

Stay Sharp

Heb.12:2 (Voice) “Now stay focused on Jesus, who designed and perfected our faith. He endured the cross and ignored the shame of that death because He focused on the joy that was set before Him; and now He is seated beside God on the throne, a place of honor” (emphasis added)

There is a path that God has set before you. Accept the uniqueness of that path and accept yourself. Turning away from it means postponing the greatness of your life. Read the rest of this entry

Embrace Him

Job 23:13-14 “But once he has made his decision, who can change his mind? Whatever he wants to do, he does. So he will do to me whatever he has planned. He controls my destiny.”

The first thing we learn from Matt.26:36-46 (please read) on how Jesus dealt with pain and translated it to glory is, you have to embrace pain. Pain is your friend. Say it aloud, pain is my friend. Read the rest of this entry

Be Still

1 Pet.5:10 (BSB) “And after you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to His eternal glory in Christ, will Himself restore you, secure you, strengthen you, and establish you.” (emphasis added)

Pain is not palatable for anyone, not even Jesus. But God’s Words says, if something strange is happening to you, do not think it is something strange. I am not saying that pain is palatable. Read the rest of this entry
