NO SIN

Most of us (if not all) use the excuse "tao lang, nagkakasala" (i'm only human, i sin) but do you know that it's possible for us, humans not to sin?
I know many will find it hard to believe, but if you read 1Peter 1:16, it says there that the Lord commands us to be holy for He is holy. 

So how are we going to do it, you ask? The Lord gave us instructions that we can read in 1Peter 1:13-15. To prepare our minds for action and be self controlled; 
to set our hopes fully on the grace of God. Be obedient and do not conform to the evil desires we've had when we lived in ignorance.
And YES, be holy in ALL that we do just as how Christ who has called us is holy.

"HoIiness" is such a big word, i know. How are we suppose to live holy like how Christ is, in this crazy, evil world?
Sounds so difficult indeed! Ofcourse we couldn't do it all by ourselves. It's impossible for us to go walk around the earth being "holy" like that, without a help from God.
In Genesis 17:1 He commanded the same to Abram (which God changed to Abraham in verse 5), and there He referred to Himself as "El Shaddai" 

The word "El Shaddai" means God being the All-Sufficient One. And "sufficient" meaning, enough to meet the needs of a situation.
Like how a baby sucks at the breast of its mom to get all the nutrition, the strength, and everything the baby needs to grow;
God too wants us to rely in Him, to yield in Him in every situation because He is the All-Sufficient One, He is El Shaddai!
He is the enough source of strength for us to overcome whatever circumstances that we are in.
All we need to do is to yield in Him, so we can live a life that is holy and acceptable to the Lord. <3

CAN I BRAG ABOUT MY LORD?



Black XL BRAG tee worn as dress from Kherev Shirts.

Romans 1:16
For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God 
that brings salvation to everyone who believes:
first to the Jew, then to the Gentile.

He died in public for you! Why would you live your christian life in private?
A genuine transformation almost always follow a public testimony,
Whether to one or two, perhaps a group of people.
It's like discovering a cure for a dreaded disease, you just don't keep it to yourself.
Make your faith public! Do not be ashamed of the gospel!
Go and tell the world about the love that saved you.


I CHOOSE TO BE RIGHTEOUS!

In 2 Timothy 3, we were warned that terrible times will come in the last days, people will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, 
without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God - having a form of godliness but denying its power. 
Have nothing to do with such people. For we are not like them! We were set apart by God for Himself. We are children of the light and day! 
(we do NOT belong to the night or darkness. 1Thessalonians 5:5) 
Let the evildoer still do evil, and the filthy still be filthy, and the righteous still do right, and the holy still be holy (Revelation 22:11). 
There are no in betweens. It's either you go left or right, black or white. Are you on the Lord's side, or are you on the devil's side?
Choose to which side do you belong. Choose to be holy! CHOOSE TO BE RIGHTEOUS!

NOT FORGET

It has been 20 plus years since the last time I went here in Korea. I don't even recognize the place anymore. haha!
And for our first adventure: Nami Island! :D
Thanks for the photos Penny! :)
It rained so we did'nt get to bike around Nami Island, and the temperature went down to 9 degrees. It's freezing cold!

They say promises are made to be broken.
It's heart breaking when people you love gives you promises they never keep.
That's why God told us in Psalm 118:8, that it's better to trust in Him,
than to put confidence in man. Because human beings will most likely disappoint you.
But never God. He will do what He says He will. 
Remember Numbers 23:19? "God is not a man that He should lie,
not a human being, that he should change his mind.
Does he speak and then not act? Does he promise and not fulfill?"

He is the greatest promise keeper! 

Here's another promise God gave us:
Isaiah 49:15-16

“Can a mother forget the baby at her breast
and have no compassion on the child she has borne?
Though she may forget, I will not forget you!
See, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands;
your walls are ever before me.
Take hold of His promises.

WATCH, PRAY, CONTEND

Cat ears hat from SM Dept. store
Leg Love maroon stockings

I remember an Indian prophet once said, "do not rest until you are crowned"
What he means by "do not rest" here is not to pause, or get tired or stop praying
Until you see the fulfillment of His promises.

To "watch" is to ask God what to pray,
To "pray" is to get into intercession, 
And to "contend" is to battle it out to God,
remininding Him of His promises by knowing His words.

In 1 Thesalonians 5:17 he said, "pray unceasingly". Why? 
Because it is His will for us to experience the fulfillment of His promises. 
So let us watch, pray, contend and don't stop.
