Our God is good! From the very beginning. He has been faithful. Continually desiring a good relationship with us. He desires only good things for us. Nothing less than good. Our God, our ADONAI ELOHIM desires for you to be blessed so that you too can be a blessing. He desires to bless those who bless you, and defend you from whoever curses you. His desire is to make you into a great nation! This may or may not be literal, but you can rest assure that He will give you children in the faith! Hold on to the LORD! He is faithful!

Today, many people help others, they donate to the victims of typhoons, earthquakes and other crisis, but then, later post them to social media to display their good works. So now, we can't really tell who is truly helping and who is just doing it for the sake of public praise, fame, or appreciation. But God knows. He knows us better than we know ourselves. He sees the inner thoughts of our hearts and minds. He knows our motives. As Christians, we are called to do differently. We are called to help those in need without broadcasting our good deeds. We are called to give not just because it is the right thing to do but because we know that whatever is ours is the LORD's, and we–His stewards–should be a channel of blessing, knowing that our God will supply our need according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus (Phil. 4:19) So today, I encourage my brothers and sisters in Christ to help others in need without expecting something in return. Let's do this because we are called to be like Christ. Let's do this because this is our new nature. Let's do this for the GLORY of God. CHALLENGE: Give to someone without letting the person know that it's from you. Don't tell anyone but the Lord. Leave a message saying... "God Loves You and knows your needs." Make sure to ask the Holy Spirit for guidance as you do this. Behold, the Lord is going to use you today to bless someone. All Glory and Honor to God! #ChristianGoal #BeLikeChrist #blessedtobeablessing Blessing #MJWC #Jesus #Challenge #ShareToMinister #ChristianLife https://www.instagram.com/p/ClbJlO4Pp5p/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

When Adam sinned, the entire human race was condemned. We became slaves to sin and no matter how much we try to do the right thing, we end up doing the very thing we despise. Thank God for His goodness, mercy and grace. He gave His one and Only Son Jesus to redeem us and make us new. Because of one man, all were condemned, but because of One Man, all who believe Him are redeemed, clothed in Christ righteousness and given the right to become children of God. Today, we are no longer slaves to sin. Rather, Jesus took the sin's dominion over us when He conquered the grave. After we accept Him as Lord and Savior, we receive a new nature from God–Holy and righteous–We are NOT good because we do good work. We do good work because that is our new nature (For God, Our Father is Good) and from glory to glory, we are becoming more and more like our Savior, Jesus, the First Born of our Father in heaven. So to my brothers and sisters in Christ. I would like to remind you today... "YOU ARE GOD'S MASTERPIECE." When the Father looks at you, He sees the work of His Son, Jesus. You are the righteousness of God through Christ. It is in YOUR NATURE to do good. Because He made you (the new you) according to His Son's image–in the image of Jesus. #GloryToGod #ChristforYou #ChristianGoal #ChristianLife #ChristLike #ShareToMinister #FollowforMore #Encouragement https://www.instagram.com/p/ClWWQEsP5Fp/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Have you ever received a direct message from the Lord? An instruction of what He wants you to do in the future or perhaps a glimpse of God's purpose for you? After Moses died, Joshua became the leader of Israel. He had to lead the Israelites into the promised land to conquer the land of the Canaanites. The Lord kept reminding him to be strong and courageous because He will be with him as Joshua led the Israelites in the promised land. In the end, Joshua, along with the twelve tribes of Israel conquer Canaan and win battles after battles with the help of the Lord. The God who stayed with Joshua as he conquered the land of the Canaanites is the same God who will help you and lead you on accomplishing His greater purpose for you. Do not be afraid nor be discouraged. The LORD will personally go ahead of you. He will remove every obstacle in your path, He will guide you every step of the way. He will never fail you nor abandon you. And you can rely on His promise. Because our God CANNOT lie. Lord, lead us, teach us and equip us for the glory of Your name. Give us wisdom on how to start the work. And strength with perseverance to continue each and everyday. In Jesus' Name. Amen. #ChristforYou #CbristianLife #ChristianGoal #Encouragement #VerseOfTheDay #bibleverses #Jesus #Faith #Instagram #gospel #ShareToMinister #MJWC https://www.instagram.com/p/ClRZp-vPYtS/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

TRIALS are part of Christian Life. These trials are not here to discourage us but to develop our endurance and at the same time, prove us that our faith "Authored by Jesus" is Genuine. Notice that the word used in " These trials will show THAT your faith is genuine" uses the word " that"and not "if". Because it is guaranteed that your faith–which is Authored by Christ– is genuine. Though there are times we still fail, God is faithful and His grace will bring us back to Him. Because God chose you a long time ago. And His Spirit has made you holy, just as God–who chose you –is Holy. LORD, Holy Spirit, Please remind us each and everyday, and in every trial of our lives that Jesus–the Author and finisher of our faith–has already won the battle a long time ago. So we are living victoriously today through Christ Jesus, Our LORD and Savior. Amen. #ChristianLife #ChristianGoal #Faith #VictoriousInJesus #ShareToMinister #MJWC #Trials #Encouragement #GloryToGod #VerseOfTheDay #BibleVerse #Verse https://www.instagram.com/p/ClQLoZZvMkY/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

This story about the blind man who received sight relates every true believer. We may not be physically blind, but for some time, we had been blind–until Jesus came. Some of us were broken, hurting, wasted, abandoned, and a rebel. Some of us were even humanly out of reach, a lost cause. We ourselves even quit trying to be a good person because we keep coming back far more worse than we used to. But Jesus didn't see you that way. He didn't stop persuading you. When every one turned their backs on you, He stayed. So, I would like to encourage you, my brothers and sisters in Christ. As one body, let us praise God for His goodness. We love Him, because He first loved us. He saved us, even when we were still sinners. Jesus died for us, and snatched us from eternal damnation. And not only did He save us, He claimed us and called us His own. All Glory and Honor to our Father God, through Jesus our Lord and Savior. Amen. #ChristianLife #ChristianGoal #ChristforYou #Encouragement #ShareToMinister #Followformore #Instagram #VerseOfTheDay #bibleverses #bibleversesdaily https://www.instagram.com/p/ClNXndUPkYx/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

With GOD all things are possible! No matter how tight your situation is, no matter how hopeless and difficult it may seem, no matter how impossible it is, God can turn things in favor of you. God will walk you through and out of it. This reminds me of the story of Daniel's 3 friends–Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego–they were thrown in the fiery furnace because they refused to bow down to the golden statue of king Nebuchadnezzar. Humanly speaking, it is impossible for them to survive the situation. But because they were WITH GOD, they came out of the fiery furnace unharmed. Our God is faithful, He does NOT lie. You can rest in Him. His words are reliable and true. You might be facing something impossible in the human sense, can't be done. Whether it is health issues, life sentences, failing relationships, or something unfixable, or hopeless. Remember that the same God who brought Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego out of the fiery furnace, is the same God who will walk with you out of that hopeless situation. With GOD, ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE! Lord, in difficult times, in hopeless situations, remind us that with You, NOTHING is IMPOSSIBLE. #Jesus #ChristianLife #ChristianGoal #Faith #WithGODAllThingsArePossible #Matthew1926 #Verseoftheday #bibleversedaily #AllGloryToGod #Followformore #ShareToMinister https://www.instagram.com/p/ClKxbT8PnDK/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Our heart is where our desire comes from. When we love someone, our desire is to give that person something that will make him or her happy. In other words, we invest time, effort, and strength to make that person feel valued–treasured. This example is very similar to our daily journey with the LORD. When God opened our eyes with His unfailing love, mercy and abundant grace, He gave us a new heart. A heart that desires for more of Him. We started wanting more of His word. We give our time, effort, and strength for the Glory of the LORD. And no matter what we do, whether we eat or drink, we remember God and want to only glorify His Name. Everything becomes about God. He is just, He is mighty, He is faithful, All Glory to God. But sadly, not all Christians are alike. There are some of us that are focused on "me","myself" and "I". Lord bless me, Lord keep me safe, Lord I need this. Lord I need that, Lord me, me, me. Our desire is for ourselves. My needs, my wants, my safety. I'm not saying it's wrong to ask God for personal needs, what I'm saying is, what's the majority of our prayers? What's the purpose of our desires? Is it to glorify God? Or to glorify us? Is it to extend His kingdom? Or to extend our kingdom? Are we concerned about the spiritual growth of our fellow Christians or are we more concerned about how many are attending our church? Are we serving God? Or do we only want to be served? Delight yourselves in the LORD, and He will give you the desires of your heart. (Ps. 37:4) What do you see when you read "desires of your heart? Is it the new Iphone model? Brand new car? Or right desires from God? Let's evaluate our hearts. God wants to give you the right desires. He wants to give you a new heart. A heart that beats for Him. A heart that is next to His. But God is not a dictator. Unless we ask Him to give us the desires of our hearts–the desires that come from God and not our own–He won't interfere. Because God didn't want a robot. He is not a dictator. He wants you to willingly want Him. "Lord, please give us a new heart. A heart after yours. In Jesus'Name. Amen." #ChristforYou #ChristianLife #ChristianGoal #MJWC #Jesus #Followformore https://www.instagram.com/p/ClIOpYvPFlY/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

In the Philippines, when someone loses their affection or interest in a relationship, whether lovers or friends, we say "tinatabangan kana" or you're losing your taste in english. This somehow made me understand the parable of Jesus regarding the salt. Salt represents us. And it's flavor or saltiness represents our passion, love, affection and interest in the LORD. That's probably why Jesus said, we should have the qualities of salt–which is being salty– among ourselves and live in peace with each other. This answers the question that Jesus asked on how to bring back its saltiness. For if someone becomes less salty or unsalty, they can be salty again by the help of others who are salty. or in other words, if someone is weak in faith or struggling with their life, others who are strong in Christ can help the one whose weak. Lord. Help us to bring back the flavor in each other. So that together, we can give glory to Your Name. #VerseOfTheDay #bibleverse #BibleVerse #MJWC #Devotional #Thursday #ChristianGoal #ChristianLife #Encouragement #WordofGod #Followformore https://www.instagram.com/p/ClCuyo7v4ry/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

We are ALL One in Christ. I think this is my new favorite verse. If God looks at us all equally, and without gender nor status, why do we look at others differently? Why do we look at the color of their skin? Gender and ethnicity? Let's see everyone and treat everyone, believers or unbelievers, equally. Let our God's light reflect through us. In Jesus' Name, Amen. #Jesus #GlorytoGod #ChristforYou #ChristianLife #ChristianGoal #ShareGodsLove #ReflectTheLight #Truth https://www.instagram.com/p/ClA2qisvHFh/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Everything was created through Him and for Him. Everything begins and ends in His command, yet, Our God created us in a very special way. Unlike other things, all created by words, God handmade you! He molded you fearfully and wonderfully. You are created according to God's own image. He didn't make you to be his slave, rather to have an intimate relationship with Him. Today, as we go through our lives, let's remember the goodness and grace of our God through Jesus our Lord and Savior. The Father's Love made perfect through the finish cross of Jesus. Let's give Him all the glory and honor. Let's meditate on the goodness of God. Giving Him the most sincere thanks giving. All glory and honor to Jesus, our Lord and Savior. #Jesus #ChristforYou #Grace #ChristianGoal #ThanksGiving #ThankYouJesus #AllGloryToGod #MJWC #VerseOfTheDay #DailyVerse https://www.instagram.com/p/Ck8us9uPdzy/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

As we seek God everyday. We become closer and closer to Him. We get to know Him and become friends with the Lord. Just as Moses had favor with God, We are under His favor too when we remain in His presence. Unlike before–when Moses had to travel all the way up on the mountain to see the LORD and stay with Him–Jesus made it easy for us. Instead of us coming to God, God dwells in us, Yes, He lives in YOU. Thank God for His abundant LOVE, GRACE and MERCY. Thank God because He is Good, and all generations are blessed because of His goodness. The Lord wants you to know that He is gonna be with you. Everyone will see that He is with you and that you are with Him. Everything you do will prosper because you have remained in Him. No one will object that the Lord is with you! He will display his power for you! #PraiseGodALWAYS #ChristLike #ChristianLife #ChristianWalk #MJWC #ChristianGoal #FriendofGod #GloryToGod #Jesus #MyJesus #Saturday https://www.instagram.com/p/Ck1-sJEvi-Z/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Living by faith that God is in control of our lives is the ONLY recommended way for Christ believers to live. Faith is the fuel of everything we do in our lives. But sometimes we tend to be distracted by what we see–by the reality, financial problems, issues of life– though we lay it down on God's feet, we never really let go of it. We still keep on thinking about it, thinking of ways to fix or resolve things our way. You are not alone. Many of us are guilty of it. We are humans and God knows it. But despite the lack of focus on our Goal–to become like Christ– His grace and love never changes. As we seek Him everyday, we are becoming more and more like Jesus from glory to glory. Our faith is being strengthened by our Lord and Savior, the author, and finisher of our faith. So if we fail today, that's okay. He is not done with you yet. Just keep seeking Jesus. Faith comes by hearing and hearing–seeking and seeking– the Word (Jesus) of God. #DailyVerse #VerseOfTheDay #Encouragement #Jesus #ChristianLife #ChristianGoal #ForJesus #jesusisthereasonfortheseason #MJWC https://www.instagram.com/p/CkzUbU9PC2q/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Some of us –Christians– have people we wish to witness, to share God's amazing grace and love, however, it isn't always easy. There are times we are scared, or we just simply don't know how to share Him. Or sometimes, the people we care about just aren't ready to accept Jesus yet. In Genesis 19, despite the possibility of getting the Lord angry for his bargaining, Abraham continued to plead God for the sake of his nephew, Lot. Though Abraham didn't mention Lot directly, GOD KNOWS HIS HEART. God knows he was worried for his nephew and that he cares for him deeply. So, God saved Lot because He remembered Abraham, even when Lot refused to leave Sodom, the angels forced Lot and his family out of the city and even spared Zoar (the nearby town) just because Lot went there to escape the judgement of the sinful city. God hasn't and will never change. He remembers you. If you have someone you love and deeply care about that needs saving, know that God will protect and save the person precious to you. He will save your family, He will save your friend, He will save them because He knows your love and care for them. The Lord sent His angels toward them, and He will spare even those who live unrighteously just so he can protect the person close to your heart. Know that God loves them more than you do. So rest in God. He remembers you. #ChristianLife #ChristianGoal #salvation #Family4Christ #FamilyforChrist #FriendsforChrist #Friends4Christ #GodSaves #JesusSaves #jesus #JesusChrist https://www.instagram.com/p/CkwDR24yCUX/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Two (2) things in this world are true. First the world around us is currently controlled/dominated by the enemy. Few proofs of it are the corruption all over the world. Unnecessary wars fueled by greediness. I don't need to elaborate more. Everyone can see it. But, this is also true (2nd). We are God's children and the evil one CANNOT touch us. Despite the fact that we are living in a fallen world, we have not fallen. Despite the reality that evil is around us, our God has protected us and kept us Holy. Set apart in the righteousness of our Lord Jesus. Whatever sickness, disease, devourer, and unclean spirit is trying to harm you, rebuke and resist. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. Because greater is He [Spirit of the Lord] that is in us, then he [the devil] that is in the world. Speak blessings to your family and self today. Remind yourself, "I am a child of God! And the evil one cannot touch me. I am well protected, I am well provided, and I am loved. In JESUS' Name. Amen!"
