God’s Unsearchable Understanding
“Have you not known? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He does not faint or grow weary; His UNDERSTANDING IS UNSEARCHABLE. He gives power to the faint, and to him who has no might He increases strength.” (Isaiah 40:28-29 ESV)
At this day and age, what is most vital in our lives is to be firmly rooted and grounded in the steadfast love of the Lord that never ceases, never fails, never gives up and never runs dry. When we do not throw away our confidence in His love, we shall be rewarded.

Continue reading “The BLESSED Life”“Yet, Christ paid the FULL PRICE to set us FREE from the curse of the law. He absorbed it completely as He became a curse in our place. For it is written: “Everyone who is hung upon a tree is doubly cursed.” Jesus, our Messiah, was cursed in our place and in so doing, dissolved the curse from our lives, so that ALL the blessings of Abraham can be poured out upon even non-Jewish believers. And now God gives us the promise of the wonderful Holy Spirit Who lives within us when we believe in Him.” (Galatians 3:13-14 TPT)
Called & Chosen To Bloom
I was once browsing facebook when this beautiful photo of Colorado Sunflower Sunset taken by a friend of mine caught my attention. It is just too wondrous not to take notice. Then, I remembered this verse that says …

Think Differently, Live Differently
Today is another day that the Lord has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it. Why? Because when God gave us His one and only beloved begotten Son, Jesus Christ, such wonderful expression of love made a way for us to come to close to Him so much so that He graced us to be IN HIM and Him IN US. What can be more closer than this divine intimacy that we with with Him? In response to His great love, we love Him. We love because He first loved us and our love for Him is articulated and demonstrated in our obedience to His leading.
“Jesus answered and said to him, “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him.” (John 14L23 NIV)
Know Your Worth
Recently, I was asked this question, “Why do we still worry when we are not supposed to, because our God knows what will happen tomorrow or in the future and prepared everything for us? But, we are just humans. Or do we still lack faith?”
Hmmmmm … when impromptu questions come, it really makes me think deeper and see what is in my heart. I avoid answering just for the sake of answering. I also want to know and learn from what comes out from deep within me.
New Identity In Christ
God’s thoughts and ways are higher yet He made it possible for us to tap into them and be influenced by them in the presence of the indwelling of the Holy Spirit in us Who endlessly reveals the truth of the Word of God to us.
The finished work of Jesus Christ made us new creations in Him. It came by grace through faith, but the renewal of our minds that brings forth transformation in our lives is our part to play as we meditate His Word day and night. What grace has made available, our faith explores.
“And do not be conformed to this world [any longer with its superficial values and customs], but be TRANSFORMED and PROGRESSIVELY CHANGED [as you mature spiritually] by the RENEWING OF YOUR MIND [focusing on godly values and ethical attitudes], so that you may prove [for yourselves] what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect [in His plan and purpose for you].” Romans 12:2 AMP
Reflection …
Real faith is not moved by what it sees, not by how it feels, not by what it looks like, but it is ONLY moved by the Word of God breathed by His Spirit.
“So all of us who have had that veil removed can see and reflect the glory of the Lord. And the Lord—who is the Spirit—makes us more and more like Him as we are changed into His glorious image.” (2 Corinthians 3:18 NLT)
He Is Willing!
The Word is the will of God. The Word is the wisdom of God. The Word is full of the thoughts of God. The Word is His way. It is His book of instructions and corrections. It is the manual of life. If we desire to live a life of victory, it can never be attained apart from the Word of God. We are to give His Word the ultimate authority in our lives.
“Stop imitating the ideals and opinions of the culture around you, but be inwardly transformed by the Holy Spirit through a total reformation of how you think. This will empower you to discern God’s will as you live a beautiful life, satisfying and perfect in His eyes.” (Romans 12:2 TPT)
Once Blessed, Always Blessed!
Have you ever experienced being asked a number of times why God allows not so good things to happen? Hmmmm …. I have. Initially, it catches me by surprise, but when I start to look into it again and again, it actually takes me into a deeper thought with more treasures of revelations unveiled. Indeed, a king’s glory is shown in his ability to explore the facts of the matter of what has been asked for or said.
“God conceals the revelation of His word
in the hiding place of His glory.
But the honor of kings is revealed
by how they thoroughly search out
the deeper meaning of all that God says.” (Proverbs 25:2 TPT)
