WHOSE are you??? ^.^"

By Daughter Of Sarah -
A pupil is not superior to his teacher, but everyone (when he is) completely trained (readjusted, restored, set to rights, perfected, transformed) will be like his teacher. - Luke 6:40

We are not greater than Christ but when we allow God's wisdom to take over our worldly logic, we put on the robe of righteousness, coat our tongue with praise not curses, undergo our heart transformation by accepting His position as He takes your place to undergo judgement... we are able to let the light of His glory shine through every area of our lives. And when people see that light, they see, not us better, but they see Christ better.

Jesus has restored us to right standing and even won for us the right to call God our heavenly Daddy. He has made Himself our firm foundation so that upon the solid rock we stand and we can enjoy our full inheritance of our son-ship in Him. Thanks to His sacrifice, God sees us perfect despite our unworthiness. He has taken our ashes and replaced it with the beauty of the LORD. =D

He has become our trainer by entrusting within us, the Holy Spirit, who teaches us ALL things. And if we listen to its gentle proddings and loving whispers of correction, we will begin to reflect him in the many facets of our life.

It is our responsibility to choose to make the right decisions in what we say, think or do to reflect our new nature as new creations in Christ - died to the world, and born again to sit at the right hand of God the Father with Jesus.

Remember whose you are today!

Shalom!

    Well said Geri.The Bible is not about us.It's about Jesus.It's not about who we are but whose we are.

    It's not about our righteousness.It's about His righteouness that we seek after.Mtt 6:33

    It's not about beholding our sins but beholding His glory.It's not about self examination.It's about Christ transforming us as we behold Him.2 Cor 3:18,Rom 12:2

    Joseph was a type of Jesus.He was betrayed by his brothers.Jesus was betrayed by His own(Jews).Joseph was blameless even when tempted by Potty's beautiful wife.Jesus was tempted at all points yet without sin.

    Joseph lived before the law (that says "Thou shall not commit adultery.")Jesus lived before the law (Moses).Jn 1:17

    Joseph always knew that his father loved him.He was the favourite son.Jesus is God's Beloved Son."This is My Beloved Son in Whom I am well pleased."

    And as He is, so are you in this world.1 Jn 4:17

    You are God's favourite and He is well pleased with you.

    May His unmerited favour abound and reign in your life and all our fellow bloggers.

Sermon 31/08/2008 - Pastor Lian (NCC)

By -
Pastor Lian has been in NCC for 20 years!! Joke- There was this really old obese lady who was so fat she had serious heart problem. One day she had heart attack and brought her to hospital and she died on op table. She came face to face with God and said sheepishly I guess my time is up… and God said no you are still young you are only 50 plus and you are a NCCer - u can live till 120 years. She woke up and told the doctor and told the doc she just want to have something else done. So she had an extreme makeover. It took a few mths and as she stepped out of the hospital, a car knocked her down and she died - God was as surprised to see her as she was to be back there. Just then, the angels sheepishly admitted - they could not recognise her. Lol. ---------------------------------------------------------- From young, Pastor Prince has always said - "God said", "God can" - he has always possessed a good opinion of God. 14 years from moving to The Rock location - 2 x 7 ...

What the Anointing Oil is & Prayer for the Anointing Oil

By -
Pastor Prince from New Creation Church has recently called upon the church members to use the Anointing Oil to bless every area of our lives. He had gone to Tiberius Church in Indonesia and seen how the anointing oil has made a difference to the Christians there. The senior pastor of Tiberius Church, Pastor Yesaya Pariadji, had been led by the Father to get his church to use the anointing oil radically. He had a vision of a biblical quotation when he was still not yet a Christian - he had no idea what it was. When he became a pastor, he finally understood what it meant. He felt very led to get his church to use anointing oil so they went ahead and used it; their testimonials are plentiful and amazing. Pastor Prince being a huge believer in Sola Scriptura, decided to discern further, pray about this and read up on the scriptural references on Anointing Oil before telling us to use it. He believes in doing things biblically - meaning we can be radical in our faith (for example our churc...

You have Comeback Power - Joel Osteen (Transcript) Pt 1

By Daughter Of Sarah -
I like to start with something funny - I heard about this pastor, he decided to skip church one Sunday and go play golf. He told his assistant he wasn't feeling well and he drove to another city's gold course there so no one would recognise him. He teed off at the first hole. All of a sudden a huge gust of wind caught his ball, carried it an extra hundred yard and blew it right into the hole for a 421 yard hole-in-one. The angel looked at God and asked, "What didcha do that for?" God smiled and said, "Who's he gonna tell?" Alright. Hold up your bible. Say it like you mean it - “This is my bible I am what it says I am, I have what it says I have, I can do what it says I can do. Today I will be taught the Word of God. I boldly confess my mind is alert, my heart is receptive, I will never be the same. In Jesus’s name.” God bless you. I want to talk to you today about how you have Comeback power. We all face situations that seem like they could bury us - the...
