Reflection of the day: The Power of His Name

We praying under His Name...didyou know praying in Jesus name expresses our:
- Authority to petition God, He has instructed us to come and ask for what we need. These words give us the authorization to enter the throne room of grace at any time and speak personally with the Father. To everyone who has received Jesus Christ as Savior, the Lord has granted the right to use His name.
- Agreement with God's purpose, it means that no complain with God answer....we must also agree with His purpose.
-Assurance of an answer. "In Jesus name" is a phrase of confidence.It is a confession of certainty that our prayers will be heard and answered....

God doesn't want prayer to become a rote exercise. "In Jesus name", it isn't just a formula... Let them be powerful reminder of whose you are and the privilege of being involved in His work. Prayer is a mighty prerogative of the children of God.

reflection of this day: a moment of weakness

As a human, we have many problems in our life...We all face key moments of decision, when our actions can lead to lasting consequences. The issue is will you be ready when such a time comes?

We can guard ourselves against these moments of weakness by remembering one simple word:H-A-L-T

H = Hungry...
Never allow yourself to get too hungry..When your body is weak from lack of food, poor decision are likely to follow. Respect your body and provide the sustenance it needs...

A= Angry...
Oooppsss....is it a thing that always exist in your daily life???..hmm...if it is......starts fromnow, dont permit yourself to get too angry. Anger can cloud judgement and lead to regrettable decision....

L= Lonely...
dont let yourself become too lonely. When feel like nobody cares about you or when you feel isolated, you may find yourself  willing to do almost anything to feel accepted or loved...

T= Tired...
Dont allow yourself to get too tired... Sleep is essential for wise decisions. When you dont have a time to sleep, it means that the poor choices become probable....

Commit now never to make important decisions when you are too hungry, angry, lonely, and tired. Delay the decision until you can approach it with prayer, patience,and Godly wisdom...

reflection of the day: The Choice

The choice..hmmm..it's about a decision what we make...so many choices in this world...
God described two roads, which lead in opposite directions...
One is a broad highway,where most people travel. It's an easy journey,requiring few commitments,and allowing all kinds of philosophies. Everything is acceptable in this way, so people are free to be self-indulgent and choose what they each think is best.
Second road is narrow. It has small entrance. Travelling on this path requires a commitment to the Savior and lifestyle of dependence, sacrifice, and trust.

So, what will we choose..???one road with a broad highway or second way as narrow...??? that's your choice....God has give us His sacrifice, what will you choose..???...
Each of us must choose which path to take: the wide one, that ends in hopelessness and eternal separation from the Lord, or the narrow one leading to life everlasting...:)

reflection of the day: Praying...

Praying...is it a simple thing to do ???..yeah...it is...but why we cant do that in our daily life???...
hmmm...maybe , we ever had pray and God never give the answer or maybe because im pray about A, but God gives me B...ouchh....

God pointed out that power is attached to prayer offered this way," The Father will give you whatever you ask in MY NAME." (John 15:16)...Prayer in His name means we're declaring our:
a.) Association with the Savior. What makes it possible for us to approach God through prayer is our relationship with God. He always hears our requests because we have been made family through the redemptive work of His Son.
b) Access to the Father. Jesus death opened the way for us to have immediate unhindered admittance to the Father's presence. Through the Holy Spirit, we have the right to talk to God directly without a human intermedary (Eph.2:18)..

So, based on this things, we didnt have any reasons to not praying again... God has opened the way for us to free talk with Him everytime , He never sleep...He always hear you....Jesus fully paid the penalty for our sins by dying on the cross. Accepting His atoning death on our behalf means we are in a new family relationship and we have unhindered access to the Father....:)..Keep praying...:)

reflection today : Obeying God

Human minds or God plans...???.....what do you think about it...???...
Sometimes, in our lives....we must decide whether to do what is sensible by human standards or to obey God....And, sometimes God asks His children to act in different ways that may not seem logical. His request might involve leaving a job or ministry that He provided only recently, taking on more responsibility when life already feels overloaded, or accepting an assignment that appears better suited for someone with a different skill set. His plans makes no sense in view of age, finance, or health. We can see from the Bible, the bible talks about many people who had to make such a choice. They are Abraham was asked to sacrifice his son, Noah was told to build an ark on dry land because a flood was coming, Gideon, the inexperienced fighter was told to send most of his warriors home before the battle,and Joshua was given a military strategy of marching around Jericho instead of attacking it....See, we have to see many example about the choice from God....As a human, dont make the mistake of allowing human logic to dictate whether you follow God's plan. When we choose to obey what He was saying, we have an experienced divine power released on their behalf...So, trust in Him...and you will see, how Great He is...:)

Reflection today: Spirit of conquers

We need this same kind of spirit if we hope to finish well:
1.) Courage, is willing to risk failure...Though we naturally want to appear strong and capable,God delights in empowering us in our weakness...So, dont be afraid with anything...We have amazing God and great of God...:D
2.) Confidence, when our confidence is placed in the Lord instead ofin ourselves, we can move ahead, knowing that He'll enable us to do His well....So, check yourself,first...you really have trust on Him or not....??? :)
3.) Commitment, even God promises to guide us as we run the race and provided whatever is needed and strengthen as along the way, we must be committed to Him and determined to carry out His will...
4.)Persistence, we need to "press on' through hardship toward that which is of eternal value...so, keep trying and you will see a magical...:)
5.)Forward focus, forget what lies behind and reach forward to what lies ahead....If we still standing behind, we'll lose sight of the goal....so,keep move on....you live for future not for the past....past is just a sign to come to the future...:)...

And, finally, the important key to success in this race is a desire to reach the goal..:)

Enjoy the daily life....:)

Reflection : Maintaining Joy (Psalm 40:16)

Happy New Year...Welcome 2014....:)
I hope everything's will be fine and all of my dreams come true...:)

The Joy...is it difficult to make it stay in your days...??? is it a difficult things to pass your everyday with joyfulness..???...maybe, we can say"Yes"...and it is...
Joy is a gift from God that enables believers to find hope and peace. But sometimes, there's always have a reason to Christiant live joylessly..The reasons are sinful behavior, regret about past, fear of future, or a pattern of discontentment....
If we're a follower of Jesus but we lost or lack of gladness, take a moment to remember who Christ is and who you are in Him...His love is unconditional, ad the Holy Spirit will never leaving you alone...He understands everything that you face and promises to provide for your needs...

Maybe, sadness will be exist in our life, but the joy of the Lord will carry us through even the deepest pain....:)....
