Lord, I Cannot, But You Can!’
By Joseph Prince
Philippians 2:13
13for it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure.
Have you ever tried to break a bad habit on your own? You probably found that when you tried to stop it by sheer willpower, you saw improvement for a while, and then bounced back to square one. Worse, you found yourself binging on the very thing that you were trying not to do. And your condition is worse than before you started your “I’m going to quit” program!
The changes were temporary because it was you doing it.
A church member who had been a chain-smoker used to believe that with willpower, he could quit smoking. He would tell himself, “If there is a will, there is a way!” But he discovered that with willpower, he could stop smoking for a week or two, and then he would succumb to the pull of nicotine again.
When he turned his life over to God and learnt about God’s grace, he told God, “I realize that I cannot stop smoking. I cannot, but You can break my habit, Lord.” And every time he lit up, he would say, “Lord, I am trying to stop smoking, but I cannot. I am trusting You.” He would even say, “I am still righteous because of Jesus’ blood.”
Well, in the very same year, all his cravings to smoke vanished! When asked how he succeeded, he would say, “It is entirely God and none of me! It is all by His grace.” This man lost all the desire to smoke. That is true transformation.
When you receive the grace of God to do for you what you cannot do, you will experience effortless and permanent change on the inside, which in turn changes your actions on the outside. The Bible tells us that God works in us to give us both the will and ability to perform what He desires. It is God who removes the old want to’s and gives us new ones. And He even gives us the power to carry them out!
Beloved, look to His grace to do what you cannot do. Say, “Lord, I cannot, but You can!” Then, what you experience will not merely be behavior modification, but true and lasting inward transformation!

You Are A Blessing Going Somewhere To Happen by Joseph Prince
You Are A Blessing Going Somewhere To Happen by Joseph Prince
Deuteronomy 28:10
10Then all peoples of the earth shall see that you are called by the name of the Lord, and they shall be afraid of you.
Today, we are called by the name of Christ — Christ-ians. Therefore, the blessing of Deuteronomy 28:10, which says, “Then all peoples of the earth shall see that you are called by the name of the Lord” is no longer just a promise but reality!
The second part of the verse — “and they shall be afraid of you” — is also true for you. People will respect you. Your boss will favor you and even your competitors will esteem you highly. They know that there is something special about you because good things happen when you are around!
I experienced this blessing when I first started working. I worked in a small third-floor office which constantly smelled of salted fish because there was a salted fish stall on the ground floor. It was in that small, dingy office that I kept on confessing that I was blessed by the Lord, and I experienced divine favor with my clients. My boss could see that there was something different about me.
The company’s business flourished and before long, we moved out of that small office to a building which in the mid-eighties was considered an information technology hub. There, we occupied a couple of offices, and started specializing in computer software and courses. Soon, we occupied the entire floor! That was how much God was prospering us.
God was also blessing me tremendously. I was drawing a very good monthly income, enjoying the favor of my boss and was in his inner circle. A few years later, I decided to go into full-time ministry. When I broke the news to my boss, He cried. I never knew how much I meant to him until then. It was only then that I realized what a blessing I had been to him by the grace of God.
Beloved, because you are also called by the name of the Lord, wherever you go, you are a blessing. His blessing is on you. The people around you will look at you and know that you are a blessing going somewhere to happen!

Do Not Disturb. I Am Busy With Jesus
Each morning everytime I walk myself to work. And I see everyone rushing just to get on their offices on time,
I thought, wow Jesus. I am much more than this.
I am not here on earth to just wake up everyday, eat, and go to work.
My life is more than that.
Your life is more than that.
Amen?
Right now, at this moment in my life
I can say that my life has really improved with Jesus around.
He is leading me to better and awesome things.
He has taught me of how to enjoy life as it goes one day ...one moment at a time.
It's more fun. No stress. No more drama in Jesus! (haha!)
VICTORY indeed!
Mmmmm...but sometimes when I get reaaaaaally bored, I can't help to think of going somewhere , have a vacation or something. But nah!
I will have that grand vacation soon! Right Jesus? **winkz
Look around you.
Everyone is reaaaaally busy running around here and there
trying to live.
Me?
I am just here.
Reaaaaaaally busy glorifying
and praising Jesus through Instagram...(follow my Jesus account bytheway it's @JesusDailyPhoto and @JesusDailyQuotes )
I mean not only instagram.
But also in Facebook, Twitter and Tumblr. I just switched here and there ..the power of iphone apps and gadgets. Huweeeeh!
Lastly, I cannot think of any better goal or fulfilling job than this.
Being with Jesus is the Best!
And TRULY satisfies!!
Halleluyaaaah!!!

Jesus Everyday. Everyday ok!
Being a Christian is not enough for me.
I want more benefits!
And thank to Jesus He is leading
me the way.
You see, one can have lots of money but if His spirit is not guided, one can do anything with it , he may can control things , buy stuff that will destroy or even kill him like drugs, alcohol etc.
At the end of the day, you can just say, "Yeah he was filthy rich!".
I just don't want to be rich.
I want to be blessed so with all the blessings that I have,
I can bless others too!
And then they will see Jesus through my blessings.
And I will end up unconsciously
glorifying Him.
I don't want to be rich and get sick.
What is richness and millions or billions if your money cannot heal you??
That would be NOTHING!
I want to have Divine Healing,
because I know with good health,
i will get to enjoy everything.
I don't want to drive my Ferrari while having a headache. Lolx.
That would be no fun at all!
(Sorry I don't have a Ferrari yet. Not even a single ordinary car. Haha!)
Thank You Jesus for healing me.
Isaiah 53:5
Yes, as a Christian in this world you should claim your Victory!
Because Jesus, who went all the way down on earth just to die for you, has given you the VICTORY!
Divine health, (Isaiah 53:5)
Protection (Psalm91)
Heavenly Blessings (Psalm23)
Your awesome future (Jeremiah 28:11)
are all yours!
All you gotta do is VERY SIMPLE----claim it!
Receive it!
Give thanks to it!
But you might say,
"I don't seem to have that kind of faith."
I say,"just listen and keep on listening to Jesus!"
Because Faith is developed by hearing and hearing the word of God.
How to listen?
Play your fave Christian worship songs, or sermons of your fave grace preachers who has a lot Jesus truth in it.
My fave preachers are Joseph Prince, Andrew Wommack, Joyce Meyer, Joel and Victoria Olsteen.
I love them because it makes me feel good inside everytime they magnify Jesus in my life.
I get refreshed and forget all my worries and helped me to focus on just Jesus at the cross.
Everytime Jesus is preached
I get energy and full restoration BIG TIME!
Yes and it's awesome to have Jesus everyday!
It's the best thing that could ever happen to me. And to you too!
You see, there are 24 hours in a day. I used to waste it with negative thoughts, fears, and delusions! It wasn't making me any healthy. I got depressed all the way and sadly have thought of ending my life.
Scary the way your thoughts are taking you. You see. So be careful. Don't listen to it all the time. If it feels good and full of rest. That's the way to go. If there's full of struggles and stress. Let it go!!
Thank You Jesus!
Now I encourage you , if you're feeling bored or fearful, worried
Pump your mp3's volume up, sit down and just listen to His words.
When you don't have access to mp3 players, go to youtube and search Joseph Prince. He has tons of Jesus preachings in there.
All you gotta do is to get wet and soak with God's word.
If you're gonna do that everyday, or make it a habit , I guarantee you
You will become UNSHAKEABLE !!
Halleluyah!!
Thank you!
Happy Blessed Monday everyone!
If you want to have one of these sermons I can share them with you.
Just email me at admin@fillmyheartjesus.com.
Cheers to your Victory!!!

God Remembers What You Say In Faith by Joseph Prince
God Remembers What You Say In Faith by Joseph Prince
Isaiah 55:11
11So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; it shall not return to Me void, but it shall accomplish what I please, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.
Some years back, I had a skin condition which refused to heal. I told God about it and began to take the Holy Communion believing and confessing that by Jesus’ stripes I was healed. Nothing happened, or so it seemed.
But the Lord did not forget about my skin condition. One day, He prompted me to check my body to see if it was still there. I did so and realized that it had disappeared! God had not forgotten the Word which I had confessed in faith.
A mother and daughter, who had been listening to my sermon tapes, began to believe that as the righteousness of God in Christ, they attracted the blessings of God. At that time, the mother had entered her name in a number of lucky draw contests. Together, they believed for the grand prize of one of these contests, which was a S$470,000 private apartment.
Soon after, the mother won two microwave ovens, a rice cooker and a S$5,000 wristwatch. In the excitement of winning those prizes, they completely forgot about the grand prize. But God did not forget what they had believed Him for. Some time later, they received news that the mother was the winner of the private apartment!
Maybe you shared God’s Word with a troubled friend a few years ago. You bump into him one day and he tells you, “Remember that day? You said something which transformed my life!” Your mind draws a blank because you have forgotten what you said. But God did not forget. He remembered what you said that day in faith.
You see, if the words you confess in faith for yourself or over your loved ones are God’s own words, He says, “So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; it shall not return to Me void, but it shall accomplish what I please, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.” Because what is promised to you is God’s Word, you will see the manifestation of His promise. He will certainly watch over His Word to perform it! (Numbers 23:19)

Getting Filled With All The Fullness Of God by Joseph Prince
Getting Filled With All The Fullness Of God by Joseph Prince
Ephesians 3:19
19to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.
We would all like to experience more health, prosperity and success in our lives. God, being God, has all of these things, won’t you agree? So to be full of God is to be full of health, prosperity and success. But how does one become full of God?
In the past, I was told that to be “filled with all the fullness of God”, I had to fast a certain number of days, pray a certain number of hours and speak in tongues incessantly! I am not belittling fasting, praying or speaking in tongues, but to be filled with all the fullness of God is not about what you do. It is not even about your love for Christ. It is actually about knowing the love of Christ! No one ever told me that if I knew how much God loves me and focused on His love for me, I would be full of Him.
When God made you, He designed you to run at optimal level when you are filled with His love, like a car that runs at its best when it is filled with the right kind of petrol or gasoline. When you realize how much God loves you and you feed on His love for you, you will be supernaturally filled with the fullness of God.
And to be full of God is to be full of everything God is to you and has for you. To be full of God is to come to a place of life, health, peace, prosperity — total wellness.
Also, when you are conscious of how much God loves you and you become filled with the fullness of God, what follows is the next verse — God doing exceedingly abundantly above all that you can ask or think, according to the power that works in you. (Ephesians 3:20) You will experience the tremendous blessings of God exploding in your life! You will become a blessing magnet!
So as God’s beloved, continue to be nourished by His love for you, and experience more health, prosperity and success in your life!

Let It Go! by Joseph Prince
Let It Go! by Joseph Prince
Exodus 15:26
26… I will put none of the diseases on you which I have brought on the Egyptians. For I am the Lord who heals you.”
After crossing the Red Sea, the children of Israel came to a place called Marah. The waters there were bitter. That is why the place was called Marah, which means “bitter”. The Israelites could not drink any of the water, so the Lord made the bitter waters sweet. (Exodus 15:23–25) Then, He brought up the subject of the diseases of Egypt and, for the first time, revealed Himself to His people as “the Lord who heals you”.
Why did the Lord suddenly mention the diseases of the world (Egypt represents the world in the Bible) at a place called “bitter”? What do diseases have to do with bitter waters? I believe that it is because He wants His people to know that a major cause of diseases in their bodies is harboring bitterness and resentment!
Some years ago, a lady shared with me about her sister who had died of cancer at a young age. She said, “Pastor Prince, a number of years before she passed on, she went through a very bitter divorce. She was very bitter toward her ex-husband.” Then, she asked me, “Is there a relationship between her bitterness and the cancer?”
I have studied the subject of healing for many years. I have read many books. I have listened to many sermons and I have sat under many healing ministries. And they all say the same thing: If you have unforgiveness in your heart long enough, that unforgiveness can sometimes translate into a disease in your body.
So if you have been bitter about something or someone, it is time to let it go! Your health, joy and life are more important. If you are already sick and you know that bitterness has something to do with it, let it go! See Jesus as your healer. He is standing at your place of bitterness today and He is saying to you, “My child, I can make your bitter waters sweet. I am the Lord who heals you.”
My friend, let it all go and let Jesus heal not just your diseases, but your broken heart too!

Double For Your Trouble! by Joseph Prince
This is soooo true in my life!!
Thank You Jesus!
Double For Your Trouble! by Joseph Prince
Zechariah 9:12
12Return to the stronghold, you prisoners of hope. Even today I declare that I will restore double to you.
I am sure that you have heard the expression, “When life throws lemons at you, make lemonade!” Well, I want you to know that when the devil throws lemons at you, God Himself will make lemonade for you! After all, the Bible says that God works all things together for your good. (Romans 8:28)
And He does it with style — He restores double for your trouble! Beloved, if you have lost a husband or wife through divorce, or a precious child through death, God can restore double to you, so that you end up having more than before, if not in quantity, then in quality!
Consider Job in the Old Testament. When he lost everything, his wife told him to curse God and die. He refused and, instead, responded to God in faith, and “the Lord gave to Job twice as much as he had before”. (Job 42:10)
When David lost the child he had with Bathsheba, he stopped pleading and started worshiping God because he trusted in the mercies of God. Later, God blessed David and Bathsheba with another son named Solomon, who became the wisest and richest king the world has ever known.
Today, God promises to restore double for your trouble — “Even today I declare that I will restore double to you.” If He declared it, He will do it! So you cannot but have hope that things will be even better than before. That is why in the same verse, He calls you “prisoners of hope”. My friend, hope in the biblical sense means a confident expectation of good things happening in your life. You are a prisoner of that! You can’t help but wake up feeling hopeful. You can’t help but expect good things to happen to you!
So when trouble comes from the devil, don’t give up and say, “It is hopeless!” Don’t worry or get angry. Worship God like David did and see that trouble as an opportunity for God to bless you with more than what you originally had. And because God has declared it, be confident that you will get double for your trouble!

Double For Your Trouble! by Joseph Prince
Zechariah 9:12
12Return to the stronghold, you prisoners of hope. Even today I declare that I will restore double to you.
I am sure that you have heard the expression, “When life throws lemons at you, make lemonade!” Well, I want you to know that when the devil throws lemons at you, God Himself will make lemonade for you! After all, the Bible says that God works all things together for your good. (Romans 8:28)
And He does it with style — He restores double for your trouble! Beloved, if you have lost a husband or wife through divorce, or a precious child through death, God can restore double to you, so that you end up having more than before, if not in quantity, then in quality!
Consider Job in the Old Testament. When he lost everything, his wife told him to curse God and die. He refused and, instead, responded to God in faith, and “the Lord gave to Job twice as much as he had before”. (Job 42:10)
When David lost the child he had with Bathsheba, he stopped pleading and started worshiping God because he trusted in the mercies of God. Later, God blessed David and Bathsheba with another son named Solomon, who became the wisest and richest king the world has ever known.

You Can’t Keep A Man With God’s Favor Down by Joseph Prince
Meditate On
…though a righteous man falls seven times, he rises again…
Proverbs 24:16, NIV
You Can’t Keep A Man With God’s Favor Down
There are many times where the lowest points in your life are actually launching pads to God’s greatest promotion in your life. It was so for Joseph in the Bible!
If Joseph had not been betrayed by his brothers, he would not have been sold as a slave. If he had not been sold as a slave, he would not have been in Potiphar’s house. If he was not in Potiphar’s house, he would not have been thrown into an Egyptian prison meant specifically for the king’s prisoners. If he was not in that specific prison, he would not have interpreted the dreams of Pharaoh’s officers. If he had not interpreted their dreams, he would not have been summoned to interpret Pharaoh’s dream two years later. If he had not interpreted Pharaoh’s dream, Pharaoh would not have promoted Joseph to become his prime minister over the entire Egyptian empire!
God’s presence with Joseph and His unmerited favor caused Joseph to be promoted from the pit to the palace, from the dunghill to Capitol Hill, from the outhouse to the White House. So stop looking at your circumstances and stop allowing them to discourage you. The same Lord who was with Joseph is with you right now. You cannot fail! You can expect to see success beyond your present circumstances because of His unmerited favor!
Blessings,
Joseph Prince

Jesus Wore The Crown Of Thorns For You by Joseph Prince
Jesus Wore The Crown Of Thorns For You by Joseph Prince
John 19:2
2And the soldiers twisted a crown of thorns and put it on His head…
If hard work is the formula for prosperity, then everyone who works hard should be prosperous. But this is certainly not the case. Many people who work very hard are still poor!
I am not advocating laziness. What I am saying is that working hard by the sweat of your brow is not how God’s prosperity comes. In fact, if you have to work overtime all the time and are stressed out, you are probably operating under the curse.
What curse is that? It is this curse: “In the sweat of your face, you shall eat bread…” (Genesis 3:19) And it refers to the stress, struggle and anxieties that come with working hard and yet producing little. Now, work itself is not a curse since God gave Adam work before the fall — Adam was to tend the garden of Eden. It was only after he sinned that the land was cursed and it brought forth thorns, and man had to toil to eat of it. (Genesis 3:17–18)
But praise God, Jesus wore the thorns on His head to show you that He has borne this curse for you and redeemed you from it. He wore the crown of thorns so that you can work stress-free and yet have the results. You don’t have to be worried and stressed out day and night like the people of the world just to get ahead in life. Your heavenly Father can get you there without the worries and stress. (Matthew 6:31–33)
Beloved, every curse that was supposed to fall on your head fell on Jesus’ head, typified by the crown of thorns. He wore the crown of thorns for you so that you can have peace of mind. He wore the crown of thorns for you and took your curse so that you can wear the crown of glory and take His righteousness, and all the benefits of that righteousness!
Today, don’t labor and toil like the people of the world. Instead, expect to see the blessings of God come into your life without blood, sweat and tears because Jesus wore the crown of thorns for you!

Be Conscious Of Your Position In Christ by Joseph Prince
Be Conscious Of Your Position In Christ by Joseph Prince
John 15:5
5“I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.
In this verse, Jesus says, “I am the vine, you are the branches.” He did not say, “I am the vine, try to be the branches.” In other words, He wants us to realize that we are already the branches. We do not have to struggle to become the branches.
As His branches, we only have to abide or remain in Christ our vine. How do we do that? We do that by simply being conscious every day of our position in Christ. Because we have received Christ, we are in Christ and are accepted in the Beloved. (2 Corinthians 5:17, Ephesians 1:6) God accepts us because we are in the Beloved and He is in us. And that is how God sees us today when we come into His presence.
What the devil wants to do then is to get you to focus on your conditioninstead of your position in Christ. The condition you are facing could be financial lack or deteriorating health. The devil wants you to focus on your condition and forget your position — that you are the righteousness of God in Christ and that you are seated with Him in heavenly places at the Father’s right hand. (2 Corinthians 5:21, Ephesians 2:6) He wants you to forget that you are an heir of God and a joint heir with Christ. (Romans 8:17)
The devil knows that once you focus on your position in Christ, it will give you the power to change your condition and circumstances. John 15:5 says that you will bear “much fruit”. This means that when you pray against any lack, abundant supply will flow. When you pray for healing, sickness will leave.
My friend, none of these things can happen by your own doing, but by His life which flows through you. Just as sap flowing through the branches of a vine will cause them to bring forth fruit, His life flowing through you will bring forth a bountiful harvest of prosperity, healing and miracles. You only need to remain conscious of who you are in Christ!

Moved By The Spirit, Not Human Honey by Joseph Prince
Moved By The Spirit, Not Human Honey by Joseph Prince
Leviticus 2:11
11‘No grain offering which you bring to the Lord shall be made with leaven, for you shall burn no leaven nor any honey in any offering to the Lord made by fire.
Imagine yourself walking past the prodigal son sitting in the pigpen. (Luke 15:11–24) You look at him and see him salivating for the pigs’ food. Believing that it is good to show kindness, you give him money to buy food for himself.
That is human kindness which says, “I am a Christian. I should be kind, good and forgiving.” Such human sweetness or kindness may be likened to honey. Interestingly, while we elevate it, God tells His people not to bring Him a grain offering with honey in it.
The grain offering speaks of Jesus’ life on earth. Not mixing honey in the grain offering speaks of how the compassion and goodness we see in Jesus during His earthly ministry were all divine. There was no “honey” of human goodness that is tainted with human weakness.
In retrospect, the worst thing one could do for the prodigal son was to give him money when he was in the pigpen. Not only would he not have gone home, but what the Lord was doing in his heart would also have been spoiled. This is what happens when we go by the goodness of our human hearts instead of the goodness of God in our hearts, which is directed by His love, wisdom and perfect timing.
My friend, God does not want you to be moved by what you see but by His Spirit. There were many needy folks surrounding Jesus during His time on earth. But He did not heal every sick person around Him, feed every hungry stomach he passed or raise all who were dead. Isaiah 11:2–3 tells us that the Lord was not moved by what He saw or heard. He was moved only by the Spirit.
You too have the Spirit in you. (1 Corinthians 3:16) Be moved by Him. Follow the peace that He puts within your spirit to do or refrain from doing something. That peace is the peace of God. Acting on that peace will cause God to be exalted, and His divine goodness and kindness to really be a blessing to you and others!

Thank Your Way To Greater Blessings by Joseph Prince
Thank Your Way To Greater Blessings by Joseph Prince
Luke 17:15
15And one of them, when he saw that he was healed, returned, and with a loud voice glorified God,
People who have a grateful heart are always praising God. You often hear them say, “God is good!” They know that God is the reason for every blessing they get.
But there are those who look to God for blessings and when they get blessed, they just go on their merry way. Their hearts are captivated by the blessings instead of the One who has blessed them.
Jesus had an encounter with both these types of people when He walked into a village one day. Ten lepers cried out to Him, “Jesus, Master, have mercy on us!” (Luke 17:13) Now, when you call out to Jesus for mercy, He always hears you. On another occasion, when two blind men cried out to Him, “Son of David, have mercy on us!” He took the time to give them their miracles. (Matthew 9:27–30)
So these 10 lepers cried out to Him for mercy. He stopped, looked at them and said, “Go, show yourselves to the priests.” And “as they went, they were cleansed”. (Luke 17:14) But only one came back and fell at Jesus’ feet, giving Him thanks. Notice the very sad words of Jesus that followed: “Were there not 10 cleansed? But where are the nine?” (Luke 17:17)
The other nine obviously knew that it was Jesus who had cleansed them. Yet, they did not bother to go back and thank Him. My friend, let it be said of you that when the blessings come, you remember to give God the praise, glory and honor, and acknowledge that He is the source of every blessing in your life.
Do you know that when the man came back to thank Jesus, he received the additional blessing of becoming whole? Jesus said to him, “Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole.” (Luke 17:19, KJV) He was not just cleansed of leprosy, he got his missing fingers and toes back!
My friend, when your heart is thankful toward God, you position yourself for even greater blessings!

How To Rest In Jesus and Enjoy Life As A Christian
How To Rest In Jesus and Enjoy Life As A Christian
We always want to make things happen real fast.
We want to have a good life real fast.
We want to enjoy life real fast.
We always look forward to tomorrows for awesome things to come.
We get excited about it.
We get thrilled about it.
But you know, sometimes,
Things get a little weird and not so cooperative with what we want.
It goes on the other way round.
Which leaves us sometimes disappointed, frustated and when we cannot understand everything what's happening at all,
We get depressed.
Agree or disagree?
That's the cycle of life.
In this world, you will always get U turns, setbacks, delays.
And that's a good opportunity to build your character.
So it's ok.
But what if you get real impatient and you feel life is not so good with you?
I say, don't be.
Because I have a Good News for you.
You know while we are very busy planning for our future, God is doing the same thing too.
Want a proof?
Read this.
"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 29:11
Does that make you smile??
Wooow! Cuz my heart and soul
is dancing right now.
Yes!
Because you believed in Jesus,
God is in control with your life now.
He knows what's best for you because He has gone ahead before you. He knows what's going to do with your future.
Halleluyaaaaaah!
So now that you know,
I encourage you to keep feeding your mind and soul with the word of God.
Rest in His plans for you and just receive His blessings.
If you rest. God is at work.
So relax.
Listen to praise, worship songs. I recommend the Hillsong, Jesus Culture, BoB Fitts, New Creation Church Singapore.
And keep listening to preachers who only preach about grace, about Jesus. About how much Jesus and God loves you. That's your only responsibility.
I recommend Joseph Prince, Joel Osteen, Andrew Wommack and Joyce Meyer. They have Facebook Fan pages and are in youtube. Grab that opportunity to listen to them perhaps 10 mins a day. Yes.5 or 10mins a day.
That's enough to recharge and refresh your spirit.
Ok then. Hope I have imparted some good points and tips in here today.
By the way, if you are in instagram follow me : @JesusDailyPhoto. I post alot of beautiful, inspiring and encouraging photos in there.
Some I have been using here.
So let's move on. Enjoy our day with Jesus at our right hand.
Halleluyaaaah!!

We always want to make things happen real fast.
We want to have a good life real fast.
We want to enjoy life real fast.
We always look forward to tomorrows for awesome things to come.
We get excited about it.
We get thrilled about it.
But you know, sometimes,
Things get a little weird and not so cooperative with what we want.
It goes on the other way round.
Which leaves us sometimes disappointed, frustated and when we cannot understand everything what's happening at all,
We get depressed.
Agree or disagree?
That's the cycle of life.
In this world, you will always get U turns, setbacks, delays.
And that's a good opportunity to build your character.
So it's ok.
But what if you get real impatient and you feel life is not so good with you?
I say, don't be.
Because I have a Good News for you.
You know while we are very busy planning for our future, God is doing the same thing too.

Psalm 46:5 Tattoo
My instagram friend tagged me in her new tattoos.
Check this out!
"God is within her, she will not fall; God will help her at break of day."
Psalm 46:5
I say wooooow!
I wonder when I will be brave enough to have one of these.
I really want to have one like
"Jeremiah 29:11"
"Psalm23" or
"Psalm91"
I am going to have it on my forearm or maybe just sits nicely on my right hand.
But then again. I am not ready.
Soon !
I know I shall have it.
Amen??

Read The Good News Today? by Joseph Prince
Read The Good News Today?
by Joseph Prince
Matthew 6:33
33… seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.
God doesn’t want you grabbing the newspaper first thing in the morning and reading all the bad news in the world. He knows that if you do that, your heart will be full of cares, anxieties and even fears.
This happened to a mother who read in the newspaper that children from China studying in our local schools were becoming top students. She wrote to the press, voicing her concerns about the stiff competition her child would face from these students, even for the top jobs in Singapore in the future.
When you are reading the newspapers, magazines, medical journals, economic reports, watching movies or surfing the Internet all the time, then you are getting your “nourishment” from these sources instead of God’s Word. Now, I am not against these things. But if you constantly feed only on earthly things which cannot satisfy, you will fill your heart and mind with cares and worries.
Jesus doesn’t want you to end up worrying about your life — what you will eat, drink or wear — as these are the things that the Gentiles (people of the world) seek. He says that your heavenly Father knows very well that you need these things. (Matthew 6:31–32)
That is why He promises you that if you would seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, all these things that the world seeks after will be added to you. It will not just be given but added, which means greater in quantity and quality!
If you are broke, don’t pursue money. Pursue God your prosperity. If you are faced with lack, don’t pursue material goods. Pursue God your provider. If you are sick, don’t pursue the “cure”. Pursue God your healer.
My friend, don’t grab the newspaper or call your friend first thing in the morning to talk about the latest bad news. Instead, grab your Bible and read all the good news God has for you for the day. And as you seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, all the things that the world is running after will be added to you!
