I was with Calvary Charismatic Centre now known as Victory Family Centre from 1983 to 2000. I can vividly remember how on many occasions after Life group meetings, my heart was full of the presence of the Lord. I recalled the many testimonys glorifying the Lord. God inspired me and built faith in my heart. The God we serve is a miracle Working God. He is alive. He is actively at work in our lives. As we share the faithfulness and goodness of God. He is planting faith in us. Our faith is infectious. Our faith is inspiring. Our faith comes from God. We are nothing apart from Him. God grows and develops our spiritual muscles. With time and experiences He allows us to go through. He increases our faith to trust Him for the miraculous. He pours His anointing on us as we step out in faith. The situations and circumstances may not change. What changes is the new perspective He gives us. We see through His eyes. We hear through His ears. We understand with His heart.
God is seeking out a broken and a contrite people. A people who are consumed with His love.
A people who are willing to embrace the cross. A nameless and faceless people who will consecrate our lives on His altar. A people whose hearts are burning with His desires. Work through us, Lord. Burn Your deep desire in us. Consume us with Your love. Perform mighty miracles through each of us. Let Your fresh fire burn strongly and brightly in us.
God uses every part of us that is broken. He breathes hope into our broken dreams. He speaks life to our broken lives. He speaks strength to our broken spirit. Life enters our lifeless bones. He speaks wholeness and strength. He brings comfort and grace to His beloved. The power of Your love envelopes us. The strength of Your spirit energizes us. The hope of Your glory radiates through our lives.
Yesterday, my thyroid nodules biopsies result were out. The thyroid nodules are benign. Monte and I are so grateful to God's intervention and grace on our lives. The waiting period was not an easy time. We do not know how things would turn out. We only know that we can put our complete trust in the goodness of God. He is in complete control. God's breath sustains us moment by moment. Every breath we take reminds us of His mercy and grace. He lives in and through us. He chooses to work His wonders and miracles through each broken vessel. God is with us. He is with us in the fire. He is with us in the stormy sea. He is Immanuel. God with us. All we have to do is to abide in His presence. Abide in His love. Abide in Him. Nothing in this world can separate us from the love of God.
The Lord tranforms us daily. He beckons us to follow Him. In faith and obedience, we pursue Him relentlessly. He pours His mercy and grace on us lavishly. We owe a debt we can never pay. He keeeps given, He keeps blessing. He reminds us that we are His. The Lord burns His deep desires in us. We are the carrier and courier of His blessing and presence. He endows us with His gifts and talents. Creative ideas flow from the throne room of God. He ministers through each of us.
Lord, do a deep and a lasting work in us. Spirit of the living God, come powerfully on us. Anoint and empower this day. Touch our lives. Set our hearts on fire. Be magnified through us. Shine Your glorious light on our broken lives.
The Christmas of 2018, we wanted to send Christmas greetings to our family and friends. We headed to Emerald Hill road for the photo taking. A student passed by and helped us to take this shot. It turned out so well.
This glorious Saturday morning. The fluffy clouds are bursting through the blue sky. Lord, Your faithfulness reaches to the sky. Always dependable. Always constant. Always abiding in us. Minister Your grace and strength to us. Do a deep and a lasting work in us. Burn Your deep desires in our hearts nd spirits. Draw us into Your presence. Empower us today.
Down the corridors of time, faithful men and women have laid down their lives in pursuit of the ever living God. We have set our hearts to seek You in the desert. We have set our hearts to seek You in the raging storm. We have set our hearts to seek You in treacherous terrain. You have called us to Yourself. You have made a covenant with us. You have redeemed us for Your glory. Touch our lives, this day. We lay our ourselves on Your altar. Consume us with fresh fire. Burn Your deep desires in us. Birth Your dreams in our hearts and spirits. We magnify Your name. We come in humble submission. We come with a contrite heart. Seeking You to love You. Seeking You with no agenda. Seeking You for You are worthy of all the praises in our hearts. Everlasting God, come and abide in us. Come and dwell among us. Come in all Your glory and power.
