God's Restoration

"The Glory of This Present House Will Be Greater than the Glory of the Former House, " says the Lord Almighty. Haggai 2:9

        Our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, and as temples, they should be treated as such. The Lord declares that He will bless our bodies in a very short moment, even more than they used to be blessed. God not only wants to bless and heal our bodies, but He can bless them exceedingly, abundantly, because all the riches and every good thing come from the Lord. The money is His, and the Gold is His.
      To get the glory from God, we must first follow Him, secondly honor and glorify Him, and finally humble ourselves before Him. Because it is in offering our weaknesses to the Lord that His Power intervenes with perfection. Look at King David who was a misfit and a nobody even in his own family; look at Joseph who was sold as a slave by his very brothers, and made second in command to Pharaoh in Egypt. What about the centurion, whose faith and humility were so immense that he declared to our Father: << Lord, I am not worthy that You should enter under my roof, but only say a word and my servant shall be healed. >> (Matthew 8:8) Or the woman who had an issue of blood for twelve years, << she said "If I may touch but His clothes, I shall be whole", and straightway, the fountain of her blood was dried up; and she felt in her body that she was healed of that plague. >> (Mark 5:28-29)
      When we place our Faith in God, and humble ourselves before Him, He will restore our bodies, minds and souls to a better place than they used to be!
      Think about Job's restoration. These are the miracles that God works together for those who follow Him with submission.
     << So the Lord blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning [...] After this lived Job an hundred and forty years, and saw his sons' sons, even four generations. So Job died, being old and full of days. >> (Job 42:12-17) 
      My dear brothers and sisters, dear readers, by Faith, we know that God works all thinks together for the good of those who love Him. To Him alone belong all the glory in the world, therefore we must lay our desires at His feet, the feet of the Cross, so that He will exceed our expectations of health, peace, calm, serenity, beauty, and preserve ourselves as His temples.
     For this, we must
  1. Give ourselves to Him and follow Him
  2. Submit and surrender ourselves to Him
  3. Humble ourselves by recognizing all our weaknesses
  4. Place our faith and trust in Him.
      By faith, I declare and believe that we are all healed!
                                  In Jesus Name, Amen.
      Dear God, we love You, and we want You to be glorified. In our moments of weakness and storm, we lay our infirmities and iniquities at the feet of Your Cross, and pray that You use them for Your Glory. We pray that You restore our minds, peace, love and joy, our bodies and our confidence, and that their coming glory and beauty become exceedingly more prominent than the previous ones. In Jesus Name. Amen. Heart

True Life is Found In Jesus Christ

<<For whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.>> Matthew 16:25         Life is the gift of being and existing, granted by the God the Universe. It can also be defined as vitality, vigor, presence or existence. When Jesus says in John 14:6 that He is <<the way and the truth and the life>>, He implies that in Him alone can our deepest longings be met. Our spiritual needs, our physical needs, emotional, mental, social desires and hopes can only be satisfied by our Lord Jesus-Christ. No food will ultimately make us happy. No friends will fill our love tank. Nobody, nothing can fill our cups and needs as Jesus. This life is temporary and for this reason must be lived in and for God alone! This life is a preparation stage to our calling to be holy.         If one lives only to store up riches, material things, to get likes and followers, to satisfy their worldly desires, and to fill their stomachs,

Real Beauty

Image
                                     Beauty is the quality or aggregate of qualities in a person or thing that gives pleasure to the senses or pleasurably exalts the mind or spirit, according to Merriam Webster. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. And because Jesus is the way, the TRUTH and the life, beauty, real beauty, TRUE BEAUTY is what Jesus perceives as beautiful. Some people (believers or unbelievers) believe that Jesus perceived everything as beautiful and thus they feel confused or discouraged as to their own individual beauty. 1 Peter 3:3-4 says that <<Your beauty should not come from outward adornment, such as elaborate hairstyles and the wearing of gold jewelry or fine clothes. Rather, it should be  THAT OF YOUR INNER SELF, the unfading beauty of a GENTLE AND QUIET SPIRIT  WHICH IS OF GREAT WORTH IN GOD'S SIGHT.>> 1. Beauty is a quiet and a gentle spirit Quiet: carried out discreetly, secretly or with moderation (based on Wikipedia); privat

The Plans of God In Our Lives

<< This is what the LORD says: "When seventy years are completed for Babylon, I will come to you and fulfill my good promise to bring you back to this place. For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." >> Jeremiah 29: 10-11 a) Sufferings precede blessings   For God's decrees to manifest, it is necessary to develop patience , endurance and maturity . Would a mother give a check of a hundred thousand dollars to her child? Absolutely not! The immature child would destroy the check or would fill himself up with all kinds of candies. His lack of knowledge would lead him to disqualify the value of this precious gift and wipe it out. To be made worthy of his mother's gift, the child must mature and develop his intellect and view of the world. Once his line of vision has been enlarged, and after being fashioned by the Potter through spir
