Happy resurrection day! 4/12/09

Monday, April 13, 2009 posted by ivan

Ephesians 5:14 “Wake up, O sleeper, rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.”

When the Lord got resurrected He entered into a glorious and powerful state. Satan could not bother Christ any more like he used to. No limitations anymore.

Just like Jesus rose from the dead, every believer has an option to be resurrected anytime in the spirit. We don’t pick the time of our resurrection in the natural. God knows when that will happen. But when it comes to the spirit, God is saying: “you can schedule your own resurrection, I am ready whenever you are.” Read the rest of this entry »

KINGDOM OF GOD 3.22.09

Tuesday, March 24, 2009 posted by ivan

 Romans 14:17 For the kingdom of God is not a matter of eating and drinking, but of righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.

 

The kingdom of God is a very good place to live. God is in control of everything. Satan has no hold on your life at all. Jesus paid a high price of suffering and death on the cross to make it possible for us to live in the kingdom of God. The good news is that we can live there now and always if we choose so.

 

Luke 17:21 the kingdom of God is within you.

Who do you believe? 3/8/09

Sunday, March 8, 2009 posted by ivan

       There are only two voices that speak into us. God want to get our attention and impart His truth. Satan also wants to be believed as he is going about his mission of killing, stealing, destroying and deceiving.

   We need to learn to recognize and distinguish one from another. We have a choice to believe one and disbelieve another.

     …Jehoshaphat stood and said, ‘Listen to me, O Judah and inhabitants of Jerusalem! Believe in the Lord your God and you will be established; believe his prophets.’ 2Chronicles 20:20

     Therefore, when the Lord heard, he was full of rage; a fire was kindled against Jacob, his anger mounted against Israel, because they had no faith in God, and did not trust his saving power. Psalm 78:21,22

     (Jesus) ‘Do not let your hearts be troubled. Believe in God, believe also in me. John 14:1

     God always has a good news or a way out. Devil never does. God brings you up. Satan down. You and I become like the One we believe. Read the rest of this entry »

There is power in the blood. 3.1.09

Monday, March 2, 2009 posted by ivan

      Sin opens the door for Satan to come in your life. Satan is not your friend, he is a murderer and a thief. You have no strength of your own to overcome sin. Only God the Father through His Son Christ Jesus can give you this kind of strength. Jesus Christ died on the cross, shedding His blood for our sins. “For withouth the shedding of blood there is NO remission (forgiveness) of sin”(Hebrews 9:22). Through Him we get forgivness of sins, victory over sins and freedom from sins. Living in sin is your personal choice. You have no excuse because you have everything you need in Jesus to live a life of righteousness and purity before God. Sin to God was such a big deal that He sent His own Son to endure a painful death just so that He can anihilate sin completely. If you only knew how much you lose by choosing sin you would never agree to live in sin for another day. Don’t hurt yourself. Come to Jesus. Jesus died so we can be saved from the power of sin and hell which is where sin ultimately leads. Freedom from sin is offered to you freely through Jesus Christ. All you have to do is receive it by faith! Read the rest of this entry »

Whose responsibility is it?

Tuesday, February 3, 2009 posted by vbabiy

            Adam and Eve were the first ones who learned to point fingers at somebody else. As long as you and I keep doing the same, nothing ever gets improved in this world. As a believer you are responsible for all the things which are connected to you in one way or another. The first person to blame is you. Train yourself to take responsibility.  This is where it starts.

  Once you do this, God will give the grace to do something about the problems around you.  You would not have to fix them but God will be working through you to do so.  Perhaps the reason why you were afraid to be responsible was because you thought that you were going to have to fix everything.  But the good news is that it will be God working in you and through you to bring about change.

I Can do all things through him who strengthens me.”

[Apostle Paul] Philippians 4:13

“…because apart from me you can do nothing.” 

[Jesus of Nazareth] John 15:5 Read the rest of this entry »
