When God, heals you, do not tell everyone!
When God, blessed you,do not tell everyone.
When God, provide for you do not tell everyone.
When God, perform miracles over your life do not tell everyone!

TUMAHIMIK ka wag kang maingay sa kung anong ginawa ng Diyos sayo.

In the book Mark 1:21-45
Jesus, performed miracles, cast out demons, and healed the people of Galilee and Capernaum.

Lahat sila naranasan ang himalang ginawa ni Jesus, sa buhay nila, mabilis na kumalat ang balita sa buong lugar na na naging dahilan upang dagsain ng mga tao Si Jesus, upang maranasan din ang himala ng ginagawa Ni Jesus sa iba.

Kabilang na dito ang Lalakeng may Ketong (Leprosy) nagmakaawa siya Kay Jesus na pagalingin siya neto at nangyari ang nais niya dahil nais ng Diyos ng gumaling din siya.

Merong mahigpit na ibinilin Si Jesus, sa kanya na do not tell anyone about the miracle that happened to you.

Ngunit hindi sumunod ang lalake sa halip ipinag sabi niya ito sa lahat.
(V Mk 1:45)

Sa lugar kung saan Siya, gumawa ng ng himala may isang natatangi ang sumunod sa nais Niya na wag ipagsabi ang nangyaring himala sa buhay niya, yon ay ang Biyenan ni Simon Peter.

📍After Jesus healed her, she did not tell to anyone. Instead, she obeyed Him and served God faithfully.

Ang totoo bakit ayaw Ni Jesus, ipagsabi mo ang ginawa Niya sayo dahil gusto Niya na mag Serve ka muna upang makita nila sayo na totoong naranasan mo ang Diyos.

📍Healing is not just for the body it is also for the heart and soul.

Yung lalakeng may Leprosy, gumaling lang siya sa labas pero hindi sa loob, dahil ang totoo nakaranas ng healing ng Diyos, sumusunod sa Diyos.

All those who are healed by Him obey and walk in His way.

2.Bakit ayaw Ni Jesus na ipag sabi mo ang ginawa Niya sayo?

Because God, does not want to be known for what He can do only for a short time.

Jesus, want to be known for His everlasting miracles in our lives.

Mark 1:44
Kaya sabi Niya sa may Ketong, mag pasuri ka sa mga saserdote at mag handog ka ayon sa turo ni Moises, upang MALAMAN nila na ikaw ay magaling na.

📍He want you to Served! and Be a living testimony that God, is not only healed you outside but He healed you on you inside.

📍Gusto ng Diyos, makita sayo ang pag kilos Niya, hindi ipagsabi ang pagkilos Niya.

Mark 1:34
Jesus healed and delivered many people. He did not allow them to speak about what had happened, because He wanted them to serve Him instead.

When God, healed you, SERVED!
When God, blessed you,SERVED!
When God, provided for you SERVED!
When God, perform miracles over your life do not tell everyone! SERVED!

Hindi sa lahat ng oras kailangan mong ikwento ang naranasan mo.
📍Let the fruit of His miracle be seen, and speak for you.

Don't be too quick to tell everyone what God, has done to you. SERVED! that is what He want most.

The reason why God, did not stop performing miracles to your life, why does He still heal you, provide for you, restore you, and make you whole?

Dahil hindi kapag talaga magaling!

HINDI KAPA KASI NAG SESERVED!
It is more than just a blessing it is also His calling for you to begin serving Him.

Ang totoo gumaling nagsisimulang maglingkod sa KING. (Jesus)

1 Samuel 12:24
“But be sure to fear the LORD and serve him faithfully with all your heart; consider what great things he has done for you.”

John 12:26
“Whoever serves me must follow me; and where I am, my servant also will be. My Father will honor the one who serves me.”

𝗔𝗬𝗢𝗦𝗜𝗡 𝗞𝗢 𝗠𝗨𝗡𝗔 𝗟𝗔𝗛𝗔𝗧 𝗕𝗔𝗚𝗢 𝗔𝗞𝗢 𝗠𝗔𝗚 𝗦𝗘𝗥𝗩𝗘

Serving God is not about your IMPACT to Him, when we obey the Lord, it's about your obedience with the Lord,even if everything is messy.
(Your Heart matter to Him)

Remember Martha? In the book of Matthew 10:38-42.

Martha and Mary were preparing to welcome Jesus that day.

Handa na ang puso ni Mary para papasukin si Jesus sa bahay nila, samantalang si Martha,was very busy trying to make everything around their house perfect.
📍She is doing that to get the attention of Jesus.
📍She is trying to make everything perfect first before she serve the Lord.

While Mary chose to serve even if their house was messy.
(Isipin mo ikaw yung maruming bahay)

Minsan tayo rin si Martha.
Bago tayo mag Serve sa Panginoon gusto muna natin dapat maayos ang buhay natin, dapat fully surrender muna at dapat maayos muna ang character bago mag serve.

Kapag ganyan ang thinking mo as a Christian, The spirit of Martha is in you.
You are trying to make everything perfect first before you serve God.

-Gusto mo bago ka mag ministry dapat meron kang surrender heart kahit nagsisimula ka palang.
-Gusto mo meron kang pleasing personality before you serve God.
-Gusto mo maging maayos muna ang lahat sayo bago ka maglingkod.

But the truth is your not really serving God with that kind of mentality, you are serving people, because your are seeking for validation.

Mas importante sayo yung magiging impact mo sa mga tao, kesa ang makasunod ng maayos sa Diyos.

You are trying to skip God's process in your life when you try to make everything perfect first before serving Him.

You are trying to control the result.

Ang gusto ng Diyos, maglingkod ka even in your messy moment.

📍Tinawag ka ng Diyos, kahit na marumi ka dahil gusto niya mag serve ka dahil lilinisin ka niya.
📍Tinawag ka ng Diyos, kahit na durog ka dahil gusto niya mag serve ka dahil bubuohin ka niya.

In your messy moments, He calls you to serve because He will purify you, He will cleanse you, He is rebuilding you along the way.

Choose to serve just do what the Lord instructed you to do,you don't need to be fix yourself first before you serve, allow Him to fix you in your messy.

Yung Impact si Lord na bahala doon basta sumunod ka lang magiging maayos ang lahat.

Just like what Mary did, iniwan niya lahat ng karumihan niya at inuna si Jesus.
📍Because she knows that when she prioritize Jesus, everything will be well-maintained.

She allows God to be in control of everything and leaves the results to God.

Lahat ng taong nananatili sa presence Ni Lord, sila lang ang nakatatanggap ng kapayapaan

ANONG KLASENG DISCIPLE KA,
SI PETER O SI JUDAS?

Si Peter at Judas ay parehong naging Disipulo Ni Jesus.
Parehas silang malapit sa Panginoon.

Kung saan nangangaral Si Jesus ay naroon din sila upang matutunan nila ang ginagawa ni Jesus na pangangaral ng mabuting balita.

Maraming beses natin na mababasa sa Bible ang salitang "MAKINIG" sinasabi ito Ni Jesus sa kanila dahil nais ng Panginoon na maaga silang matuto.
Dahil hindi magtatagal aalis ang anak ng tao at sila ang nakatakda na sumunod sa yapak Ni Jesus, upang ibahagi ang mabuting balita sa sanlibutan.
(V MT 20:18–19)

Naging maayos ang pagsunod ng dalawang Disciples sa Panginoon, parehong nahubog, pero hindi parehong lumalim ang pananampalataya nila.

Both of them are not on the same level of faith in Jesus.

Si Judas, nakipag isa sa mga pareseo upang ibinta si Jesus sa maliit na halaga.
(V MT 26:14–16)

Si Peter, naman itinanggi Si Jesus, ng tatlong beses.
(V MT 26:69–75)

Both of them committed a great sin against the Jesus.

Pareho din silang umalis sa Discipleship at bumalik sa dati nilang mga buhay.

Judas lived under the weight of condemnation after betraying Jesus.

Peter lived with conviction, even when he went back to being a fisherman.

📍They both repented for their sins.

Judas repented wholeheartedly and returned the money.

Peter cried out and repented for what he had done to Jesus.

Judas lived with shame and guilt after sinning against Jesus, and because of that, he died. He hang himself.
(V MT 27:3–5)
📍Nung umalis si Judas, namatay siya.

Peter left discipleship, went back to fishing, and remained lukewarm for a long time. (V John 21:1–3)
📍Nung umalis si Peter, lumamig siya.

They both lived with shame and guilt, so they left discipleship.

ANONG KLASENG DISCIPLE SILA?
ANO ANG PINAGKAIBA NILA?

📍They were both disciples of Jesus, but they did not have the same faith and HEART.

Same position (DISCIPLE) - BUT different HEART & FAITH - DIFFERENT ENDING.

Si Judas, umalis at nawalan ng pag-asa tumingin sa kasalanan at namuhay sa kahihiyan hanggang namatay.

Si Peter, umalis namuhay sa kahihiyan, nagpakalayo-layo,naging malamig pero hindi sumuko.

Peter lived with hope in his heart.

Saan galing pag-asa ni Peter?
In the book Matthew 20:18–19 narinig nilang lahat na mga disciple ang sinabi ni Jesus, Siya ay mamamatay ngunit mabubuhay sa ikatlong araw.

Just like Judas, Peter left and lived with shame and guilt.
But unlike Judas, Peter had hope in the promises of Jesus.

Namuhay man si Peter ng malamig at may kahihiyan sa kasalanan but he did not let his emotions bring him to the point of death, the way Judas did.

📍Shame and guilt after sin are normal, this is how the enemy tries to destroy and paralyze us.
But God does not want us to live in these feelings.

He calls us to repent and hold fast to His promises.

📍Peter lost his purpose, but the vision Jesus gave him was never erased from his heart.

Bumalik siya sa dating trabaho, nawala siya sa tungkulin, pero hindi siya nawala sa paningin ni Lord, at hindi nabura ang paningin ng Diyos sa kanya.

Namuhay si Peter ng walang kasiguraduhan, pero sa isa lang siya segurado babalik ang Panginoon.

📍Purpose can be lost for a moment, but God’s vision for you is eternal.

Ang bunga ng Discipleship ay makikita natin kay Peter, kahit na umalis siya nandon parin ang excitement sa Puso niya ng makita niya si Jesus sa Dagat.

📍John 21:6 🥹
Na Surprise siya ng nagsalita si Jesus sa tabi niya at ng kanyang mga kasama, tumalon siya sa dagat at patakbong sinalubong Si Jesus sa pampang, kahit nakahubad pa siya.

📍Judas ran away from Jesus in shame. Peter ran to Jesus in love.

Kahit lumamig ka.
kahit umalis ka.
kahit bumalik ka sa dating buhay,
kapag tunay kang disciple, kapag tunay na nakilala mo Si Jesus at kapag narinig mo ulit ang boses Niya, KILALA MO AGAD.

At kahit ano pa ang suot mo, kahit anong kalagayan mo, tatakbo ka pabalik sa Kanya.

True disciple has a heart that keep choosing Him and keep coming back to Him.

IKAW ANONG KLASENG DISCIPLE KA

Lord, use me and my life to break the curse.

𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐝𝐞𝐞𝐩𝐞𝐫 𝐫𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝐉𝐞𝐝𝐢𝐝𝐢𝐚𝐡 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐁𝐨𝐫𝐧 𝐀𝐠𝐚𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐮𝐬.

Lord, tulad ni David, bumagsak rin po ako pero gamitin mo pa rin ako para makapagsimula muli.

Story time....
I had a heavy heart during the Sunday service because I was hurt by what my family is doing. At the same time, there is nothing I can do but just pray for them.

PAULIT-ULIT NALANG I'M TIRED!

Suddenly napagod na ako kakasaway, kakaiyak na itigil na nila yung bagay na nakakasama sa kanila, mga bagay na nagdudulot ng sumpa sa pamilya.

Bilang nag-iisang Born Again sa family, hindi nila nakikita ang nakikita ko
Kaya para sa kanila wala lang yon.

I'm tired of pleasing them.
I'm tired of being in this kind of toxic place.
But I don't know what to do.

📍That moment i was hurt but God reminded me that He didn't call me without a purpose.
He called me to break the generational curses in our family and to be the start of a generation where God is the center.

I remember King David.
He was just a simple shepherd before he was anointed to be the King of Israel.

David was chosen by God, anointed as king through Samuel.
He led Israel into victory.
He was called a man after God’s own heart.

📍But even a man chosen by God can fall deeply into sin.

Si David, yung best example na kahit bumagsak ka pwedi ka pa rin gamitin ng Diyos, upang makapagsimula muli.

2 Samuel 11:1-5
One evening, David stayed in Jerusalem while his army went to war.
From the roof of his palace, he saw a woman bathing.
David sent someone to find out about her.
The man said, She is Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam and the wife of Uriah the Hittite.

But David allowed that desire to lead him into action.
📍Beware of just one single look, because that look can turn into desire, and that desire can turn into action and lead you to fall.

To make a story short....
May nangyari sa kanila ni Bathsheba..
And instead of confessing, David tried to cover it.

He tried to make Uriah go home, hoping he would sleep with his wife and cover David’s sin. "But Uriah refused"

2 Samuel 11:14-15
He wrote a letter to his commander, Joab. And in that letter, he ordered that Uriah be placed in the hardest part of the battle and then abandoned.

Uriah was killed exactly as instructed.

Hindi ito maliit na kasalanan lang
David, commit adultery, deception and murder.

2 Samuel 12:1-4
(Gusto ko yung part na ito)

Dahil dito pinadala ng Diyos, si Prophet Natan.
Nathan did not accuse David immediately.
He told a story. (Dinaan niya sa kwento)

A rich man had many sheep.
A poor man had only one lamb, he loved it deeply.
But the rich man took it and killed it.

Nagalit si David, sinabi niya "As surely as the Lord lives, the man who did this deserves to die!"

Then Nathan looked at David and said
"You are that man!"

Akala niya walang alam si Nathan sa ginawa niya kasalanan that moment bumagsak at natulala si David dahil nagulat siya na nalaman pala ni Nathan ang ginawa niya.

David finally said:
"I have sinned against the LORD."
(2 Samuel 12:13)

And God forgave him.

Ito yung tumatak sa akin
📍Kahit pinatawad kana sa kasalanan mo forgiveness did not erase consequences.
Aanihin mo pa rin ang mali, pero dito mag uumpisa ang Breakthrough sa buhay mo kapag tinanggap mo na mali ka.

Sabi ni Nathan sa kanya.
"The child who is born to you will die."
(2 Samuel 12:14)
Ito yung bunga ng pag siping niya kay Bathsheba.

David fasted.
He wept.
He lay on the ground, refusing food, crying out to God for mercy.

But the child still died.

This is one of the hardest truths in the Bible :
📍God erases the sin, but life still pay the price.

2 Samuel 12:24-25
Then something unexpected happened.
Dito nag simula ang Breakthrough sa buhay ni David.

David and Bathsheba had another son.

They named him Solomon.

But God gave him another name through Nathan:
JEDIDIAH.
Which means:
“Beloved of the LORD.”

This is Jedidiah reveals to me.

📍Pain was written, but Love is deeper.
📍Scars are visible, but Purpose is bigger.
📍Mistakes are real, but God’s story is not finished yet.

God chooses to love in the middle of it.

In my case i came from the same kind of brokenness.
A family history full of sin, loss, and regrets.
This story is far from perfect.
It is a story that still bears the marks of pain.

Yet God steps into that exact place and says

"You are loved." -Jeremiah 31:3

Solomon did not remain a child of tragedy.

He became a king.
He became known for wisdom that amazed nations.

📍Sayo magsisimula ang ang panibagong pamilya, kung saan ang Diyos, ang mag susulat ng storya.

This same line, flawed yet favored, is the path God chose the lineage that leads straight to Jesus Christ.

You are not defined by your failure.
God did not choose a perfect line to carry His promise.

He chose you a broken one to remain faithful to it.
Your line will carry His promise to the next generation.

Jedidiah teaches me this:

📍This is another revelation of being Born Again.
You are not born again for nothing.
You are born again to end the generational pain and start carrying His name.

From sin > cover-up > conviction >repentance > consequences > and finally, God's grace and new blessing!

Like Jedidiah we are loved by God.

"A Message for all workers"

Labor day "Your labor will never be in vain."

Sa bawat overtime na walang reklamo, sa bawat sakripisyong hindi nababanggit, at sa bawat pagod na tinatago mo lang huwag kang mag-alala.

📍Hindi nakalilimot ang Langit.

Ang tao pwedeng makalimot magpasalamat, pero ang Diyos ay tapat na magbabayad.

At lalo na sa inyong mga manggagawa ng Diyos,sa mga naglilingkod for advancing His Kingdom, sa mga nagbubuwis ng oras para sa Gawain, at sa mga nakakaranas ng hirap para itaas ang Pangalan ni Hesus,hindi sayang ang inyong lakas.

Hindi lang trabaho o serbisyo ang ginagawa ninyo, may malaking layunin ang bawat paghihirap, may saysay ang bawat pagod.
Kahit minsan pakiramdam mo maliit lang ang ambag mo, sa mata ng Diyos, mahalaga yan at mahalaga ka.

2 Timothy 5:17
Those who Teach and Lead are worthy of double Honor.

Para kay Pastor, Pastora at sa mga Youth Leader to all Disciples of Jesus Christ.

Laban lang! Ang pagod mo dito, ay magiging korona mo doon.

Matthew 24:13
[13] But the one who endures to the end will be saved.

Ang sakripisyo at pagod na binibigay mo ay panandalian, pero ang ibabalik Niya ay WALANG HANGGANAN.

Ang Diyos, ang Boss mo, KAYA HIGIT PA SA SAHOD ANG MATATANGGAP MO!

📍Ang investment mo sa Kanya, may ROI na sobra-sobra!

Amos 8:7
"Sumumpa ang Panginoon dahil sa karangalan ni Jacob 'Hinding-hindi ko malilimutan ang kahit anong gawa nila."

PARA SA MGA UMALIS MAY NAGHAHANAP SAYO.

Nasusulat:
Jeremiah 31:20
Si Efraim ay anak ko pa ring minamahal Anak na aking kinalulugadan.
Kung gaano kadalas ko siya pinaparusahan, Hinahanap ko siya, at ako'y nananabik sa kanya.

Kung feeling mo para kang sinakluban ng langit at lupa dahil sa mga problema, at pagsubok na meron ka ngayon.

At ito ang naging dahilan para iwan at takbuhan mo ang calling mo sa Panginoon.

📍The Lord is telling us right now:
COMEBACK!

God wants you to endure that hardship you are right now.
Why?
Dahil Kinalulugdan ka niya, parti yan ng pagtutuwid niya sayo.

Alam mo ba na nalulungkot ang Diyos, sa mga anak Niya kapag pinapalo Niya ito at pinipiling umalis at magrebelde.

Nalulungkot siya at Hinahanap Niya ito.

When God seems silent on a day when you're struggling, He is doing something for you.

📍Kapag nahihirapan ka o nasa sitwasyon ka pagod na pagod kana,God is using that situation to do something great for you.

"Tahamik lang Siya, pero may ginagawa na Siya"

Ang nakakatuwa sa Lord, alam Niya talaga kung sino sa mga anak Niya ang mga mananatili at aalis.

Yung mga pinili mag stay kahit hirap na, doon lang naman siya tahimik at inoobserve ang heart ng anak Niyang yon.

Yung mga umalis doon mas nag eeffort ang Lord, na kumilos para makabalik ka ulit. (Grabeee lang ang Niya)

Why?

Jeremiah 31:21
(Para sa mga umalis ito ang hinanda ng Lord, para sayo)
Mag lagay ka ng mga batong pananda sa iyong landas, tandaan mo ang daang iyong nilakaran"

(V22)
Anak ko, hanggang kailan ka mag aatubili? Ako si Yahweh ang nagtatag ng bagong kaayosan.
Ang babae ang yayakap sa lalaki.

God, know those moments na On Fire ka for Him and those moments of Victory sa mga laban na hinarap mo ang magiging Batong pananda mo para makabalik ka.

Sabi ni Pastor sa akin: Kahit anong alis mo Babalikan mo kung ano ang naumpisahan mong gawin sa Lord.

📍We really can't outrun our calling.

Alam ng Lord, hindi yun wala lang para sayo, those moments was very special for you.

📍If you still remember that moment with Him, and if you still feel like crying every time you think about it, it means He is still calling you.
"He still waiting for you"

Those moments will bring you back to
Him.

📍Yun ang Batong tinutukoy ng Lord, sayo na kailangan tandaan mo.

(V22)
Kaya gusto ng Lord, tandaan mo yung daang nilakaran mo, kasi babalikan mo yon.

He is hoping that one day you will comeback and hug Him tightly,
and God will hug you more tightly.

(V23)
He is the Groom, and we are His bride.
Hinahanap ka niya at handa na para yakapin ka pabalik.

(V23)
May pag-asa sa hinaharap, sabi ni Yahweh, magbabalik sa sariling bayan ang inyong mga anak.

(V18)
Naririnig kong nananaghoy ang mga taga efraim.

(V19)
Tumalikod kami sa inyo ngunit ngayon nagsisisi na, natuto kami matapos ninyong parusahan.
Napapahiya kami't nalulungkot dahil sa mga kasalanan namin ng panahon ng aming kabataan.

📍 Alam mo, He allowed you to leave because He knows you will learn many lessons outside of His presence.

Kahit gaano ka katagal na nawala sa kanya, God is willing to wait for you until makapag decide ka na to really serve Him wholeheartedly.

Thats the thing about the Love of the Lord, for us.😭

📍 He will pursue you.

KAYA BALIK NA NAMIMISS KANA NI LORD.

PS. This is His message for me, and I want to share it with those who also feel far from Him, just like me.
It's time to comeback.

Hosea 6:1
"Come, let us return to the LORD. For He has torn us, but He will heal us; He has wounded us, but He will bind us up."

Jeremiah 24:7
"I will give them a heart to know Me, that I am the Lord; and they shall be My people, and I will be their God, for they shall return to Me with their whole heart."

Zechariah 1:3
"‘Return to Me,’ declares the LORD of Hosts, ‘and I will return to you.’"

Lamang ka sa lahat kapag may Diyos,ka na kasama.

Dumating kana ba sa punto ng buhay mo na napasabi kana ng salitang.

𝗪𝗔𝗟𝗔𝗡𝗚 𝗛𝗜𝗬𝗔𝗡𝗚 𝗕𝗨𝗛𝗔𝗬 𝗜𝗧𝗢!

Madalas ko itong marinig sa karamihan.

Kapatid i just want to remind you today. Hindi buhay mo ang problema... Kundi ikaw.

Yes po ikaw ang Problema!

Will ni Lord na maging magaan ang buhay mo with His process, kaya ka Niya dinadaan diyan pero dahil sa mga padalos-dalos mong desisyon o mga maling desisyon mo sa buhay nahihirapan ka.

He cares for us that's why He is inviting us to cast all our anxiety on Him, dahil Siya ang kikilos.

The reason why you are in your difficult situation is because of your decision.

📍Every decision has a consequences.

Ang buhay na binigay ng Diyos, ay napaka ganda at puno ng pagmamahal walang mali sa ginawa ng Diyos at hindi sinungaling ang Diyos.

Binigyan tayo ng Diyos, nang kalayaan na pumili at gawin kung ano ang naisa natin. (Freewill)

📍Even though God has given us free will to choose, He encourages us to choose life over death.
It is a sad reality that some, or even many, choose to live by their own strength, which leads to death.

Kapag buhay ang pinili natin we allow God to fully take control of our lives.

Deuteronomy 30:19
[19] I call heaven and earth as my witnesses against you right now: I have set life and death, blessing and curse before you. Now choose life—so that you and your descendants will live.

📍He loves us so much that He gave us the life we have right now.

Psalm 139:14
"I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well."

And YOU are made by His image! everytime you blame your life you are blaming God, without knowing that you are the reason not Him.

Kaya hindi walang Hiya ang buhay natin, kung meron man Walang hiya dito, Tayo po iyon.

Tayo yon dahil sinasamantala natin ang kabutihan ng Diyos, sa buhay natin.
📍 We are the ones who are shameless! because we are abusing His grace and the salvation that God worked so hard for 2,000 years ago, just so we could live and know the Father.

Tayo ang walang Hiya hindi ang buhay na binigay Niya.

Walang ibang hangad ang Diyos, kundi ang mapabuti ang buhay natin dito sa lupa habang hinihintay natin ang kanyang pagdating.

Pero tayo mismo ang pumipili ng buhay na gusto natin.

📍Your hardest situation now is the result of your decision.

📍Every time you are trying to live with your own strength, you are disregarding God in your life.

Mahal na mahal tayo ng Diyos, kahit na makasalanan tayo, kahit na paulit-ulit tayong nagkakamali at nagkukulang, paulit-ulit din Niya tayong pipiliin.

Romans 5:8
"But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us."

Hindi pa huli ang lahat, Repent and allow Him to be in control of your life.

Let's practice putting our trustkay Lord, Jesus came that we may have life abundantly.

His ways are higher than our ways Kapatid, Mahal ka ng Diyos.

John 16:33
"I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world."

God remind me of Himeneo and Feliteo in the bible, the two people who have cancerous words. - 2 Timoteo 2:17-18

Itong dalawang ito, gumagawa sila ng mga Fake Stories, Fake Teaching para maligaw at mawala ang mga believers ni Jesus Christ, sa pananampalataya.

Yung mga salita nila na itinuring na parang Cancer sa bible mabilis na kumakalat at mapanira pero walang katotohanan.

I know it hurts so bad, mapapaisip at mapapaiyak ka nalang out of nowhere You might be depressed, triggered to think so many negative thoughts
"Bakit ako?", "Ano ba nagawa para maranasan ito?".

-Bakit kailangan pa nila akong gawan ng kwento, upang sirain ang pangalan ko?
-Bakit kailangan pa siraan ka sa harap at likod mo kahit wala ka namang ginagawang masama?

It feels so unfair right? Na ikaw pa yung nasasaktan, ikaw pa yung nahihiya at nasisiraan ng loob kahit alam mong totoo ang pinanindigan mo.

It kills you inside knowing people talk about you based on lies, Judging you without even asking what really happened.
It breaks your trust, it makes you scared to open up to anyone again.

Painful indeed. But don't blame God.

Sooner or later, you will realize why God allowed people to lie, to fake stories and why they want to destroy your image.

-He allowed it for you to exercise self-control.
-He allowed it so you can level up your boundaries.
-He allowed it to excise your faith with God.

Sa mga ganito pangyayari nakikilala ng Panginoon kung sino ang tunay na sa Kanya. -2 Timothy 2:19

He also allowed this to remove those who don't really know you, those who easily believe what hear instead of trusting and loving you.
And also separate the real ones from the fake ones.

Kasi kung mananatili sila sa buhay mo, mauubos ka at mas lalo ka lang masasaktan, madidisappoint sa huli.

Why did Apostle Paul want them to avoid Himeneo and Feliteo.

Because Paul knew that every believer of Jesus Christ is precious and important to God.

Kaluluwa ang nakasalalay dito, kaya pinapa iwas ni Paul lahat ng believer sa ganitong pangyayari.

He saves your heart from being broken. He saves you from being used and hurt by those who never have good intentions for you.

📍Most importantly, it is for the salvation of your soul.

In this kind of situation pwedi kang mawala ng tuluyan sa Panginoon, kapag binigyan mo ng entry ang kaaway sa buhay mo.

You will be amazed someday na dahil nagpatuloy ka.
Napatunayan mo na katotothanan ang mananaig, at lahat ng kasinungalingan at kwentong gawa-gawa nila ay mabubunyag din sa tamang panahon.

📍You don't need to explain yourself to anyone kasi alam ng Diyos, ang totoo at sapat na yun.

Romans 8:28
[28] We know that God works all things together for good for the ones who love God, for those who are called according to his purpose.

2 Timoteo 2:16-19
[16] Iwasan mo ang mga usapang malalaswa at walang kabuluhan, sapagkat ang mga iyan ang nagiging dahilan ng pagtalikod ng mga tao sa Diyos.
[17] Ang mga katuruan nila'y parang kanser na kumakalat sa katawan. Kabilang sa mga taong ito ay sina Himeneo at Fileto.
[18] Lumihis sila sa katotohanan at ginugulo nila ang pananampalataya ng iba sa pamamagitan ng pagtuturo na ang muling pagkabuhay ay naganap na. [19] Ngunit matibay ang pundasyong itinatag ng Diyos, at doo'y nakatatak: “Nakikilala ng Panginoon kung sinu-sino ang tunay na kanya,” at, “Ang bawat nagsasabing siya'y sa Panginoon ay dapat lumayo sa kasamaan.

Kung may Commitment ka sa Lord, Basahin mo ito upang maiwasan mo ang bumagsak.

I just want to share the realization that God revealed to me during fellowship with my Pastor.

📍 The Danger of Being Committed Yet Looking to People and Craving for Validation.

"Naka commit pero sa Tao naka KAPIT"

God remind me the story of King Herod the great and King Herod Agrippa, in the Bible, "The Self Righteous Kings"

Tulad ng dalawang King Herod, Self Righteous din ako, gusto ko may pinapatunayan ako sa tao.
"People Pleaser kung tawagin"
"Gusto ko napapansin ang ginagawa ko"

Mayabang din ako, Gusto ko napapansin ako, I want and I thirst for people's validation.

-Gusto ko kasing patunayan sa iba na kaya ko, at ako ang may gawa nito.
-Gusto kong lumago para may patunayan ako sa kanila.

This is the reason why my commitment to the Lord started to weaken and led to my fall.

Yung ganitong Characteristic ang dahilan why King Herod the great and King Herod Agrippa Fall and Died!

📍 They died because they neglected Christ.
They died because they took all the praise and glory that should have belonged to God, but they wanted it all for himself.

Tulad ng dalawang King Herod, i took and i wanted all the praise and glory na dapat para sa Diyos, lahat ng iyon.

📍In my commitment, I thought God received all the glory, but actually, it wasn't Him, dahil gusto ko sa akin mapunta.

📍 In my commitment, I was neglecting Christ in me without even realizing it.

God try to warned King Herod, but they still neglected it and continued to live in self-righteousness.

Pinadala ng Diyos, ang 3 Wise Men upang sabihin kay King Herod na may isisilang na Hari sa Jerusalem at ang haring ito ang nararapat na bigyan ng Papuri. - Matthew 2:1-8

📍King Herod the great felt jealous immediately because he wanted to be the only king and receive all the honor.

📍In King Herod Agrippa's situation, he wanted all the praise and glory to go to himself, not to God. He wanted to be treated like a God.

Gawa 12:21, 23
[21] Pagsapit ng takdang araw, si Herodes ay nagsuot ng damit-hari, umupo sa trono, at nagtalumpati.
[23] At noon din ay hinampas ng isang anghel ng Panginoon si Herodes, sapagkat inangkin niya ang karangalang nauukol sa Diyos; at siya'y kinain ng mga uod hanggang sa mamatay.

It will be very hard for you to commit your life to Jesus if you still have a self-righteous mindset like these kings.

Ang tanging pinagkaiba ko kay King Herod, hindi ko naranasan ang mauod.

📍The worms symbolize the end and the death of your calling.

Isaiah 66:24
[24] They will go out and see the corpses of the people who rebelled against me, where their worm never dies, where their fire is never extinguished. They will be a horror to everyone.

Compare to the Kings, God didn't let me eat by the worm and died.
📍 Yes i may be fall because of being self Righteous but it doesn't end there.

He reached me out with His grace upang bumangon at magsimula una.

My fall was not a waste.
It was God's way of teaching me and removing that heart that desired nothing but the praise of men.

This time in my commitment, God must be the one exalted, not me.

I've learned so much from my fall. It is all by His grace why I am able to rise up and start again.

Kung may commitment ka sa Lord, iwasan mo ang maging mayabang, self righteous.

📍 Being committed to God is never centered on yourself, but entirely centered on Him.

John 3:30
"He must become greater; I must become less."
