The New Commandment

Jesus Christ loved you and me more than anything.. He gave His dear life for us. The life of the light of this world was put down for us, mere ungrateful vermin that inhabit this earth, and why, you ask? Because He LOVED you and me.

Good morning dear readers, today let us look at the new commandment that Jesus gave us, and which He had exercised all the while He was on this earth.

In John, Chapter 13 verse 34, we read:

³⁴ A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. 

³⁵ By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.

This is the very means by which we can identify the true disciples of Jesus Christ. A true disciple of Jesus would love the people around him without exception. They would love unconditionally, just like Jesus loved you and me.

Think of it: Jesus died on the cross for the salvation of every human on earth, and yet did He place conditions before taking up the cross to climb the mountain to His death? Did He even say a word to the soldiers that kept mocking and torturing Him?

He is the most innocent, purest person to ever have received death penalty for NOT doing any crime whatsoever. He took up OUR punishment, and died in our place. He died for the crime of loving us too much, and yet a huge majority of people on this earth choose to deny that Jesus even existed. How sad is that? I feel ashamed of my fellow humans.

A disciple should walk the same path his master walks, and therefore, before being captured, He gave His new commandment to His disciples: to love one another. He did this before going out to demonstrate His own love.

Now, loving each other has deeper implications than just caring. We as the disciples of Jesus Christ must consider each other far more important than ourselves, and be willing to make sacrifices for the good of our brothers and sisters in Christ. As long as we are the children of God, we are part of the same body of His church, and therefore bonded in a love deeper than what other normal humans can understand.

We love each other in Christ, and are brought together in His name, for the glorification of His name. We are a team, dear friends, in our mission with the same goal. Our love is everlasting, and founded on our Savior, and it can glow and reach out to everyone around us.

But one important and vital factor of loving is forgiving. It is one that we tend to forget all the time, and yet one factor without which love cannot exist. Our Lord Himself forgave us all our hatred and sins and died for our sake. He gave us the opportunity to be saved from our sins by repenting and by simply believing in Christ’s death on the cross for us. Even now, God is constantly forgiving the various wrongs we do in our lives. He must have to forgive so many things we do wrong in order to grant us His pure presence when we pray faithfully.

And now let’s take a look at ourselves: how easily do WE tend to forgive?

Many of you may say that you “forgive and forget” instantly. You may even be a person who always says “I’m sorry” and “I forgive you” with no delay. But let me tell you this:

True forgiveness does not even have to contain words. If you truly have forgiven someone of their wrong against you, then you will never bring up the subject, and will love the person as if nothing has changed. More importantly, you will have plucked away your resentment from your heart. You will never even in your dreams remember that wrong they did, and will rather refill your heart with more love for that person. That is forgiveness.

Now ask yourself, just as I ask myself this morning, : How many people have you ACTUALLY forgiven? When you sit by yourself, immersed in thoughts, do the wrong word or action of your brother or sister or friend not come right into your mind? Do you not wonder why they would do such a thing to you?

I know sometimes it is hard to forgive. Sometimes it is even harder to forget although you want to forgive so bad. But all you have to think of is our Lord’s LOVE. Think of how much you love your friend, and how much you should love the people around you in order to at least try and come close to at least one-millionth of the love that your Master taught you.

Now as I read back at my own article, I realize that sometimes I have also forgotten to forgive, and have many times carried resentment in my heart, and repent of it. See, the word of God is a two-edged sword: it punctures both ways.

If I were to talk of love, and the lack of it we see these days, there would be no end to how much you scroll down my blog page to reach the end of it. Just remember one thing though: Jesus loves you no matter what, and He is always there, willing to heal you and comfort you if you believe.

Let us exercise this love and forgiveness that our Master taught us, my friends. Let us show our true identity to the world in the way that our Lord taught us: by love. By loving one another in this cold era where the rest of the world is quick to judge and hate.

God bless you and may the peace of Christ be with you.

The Whole World is SHAKING!!

Good day my dear readers. Today I would like to share with you some recent happenings that we simply cannot ignore.

There are countless environmental disasters occurring worldwide, and the rate is escalating fast every  minute of every day.

Today let us focus on Earthquakes. Have you seen the seismic activity of the past few weeks? It is amazing!

A 7.8 magnitude earthquake shook Iran and Pakistan and killed at least 38 and injured more than 170!  [16 Apr. 2013]

And in China, a 6.6 magnitude quake killed more than 170!!   [20 Apr. 2013]

A 7.2 magnitude quake hit Russia!!   [19 Apr. 2013]

A 6.6. in Papua New Guinea!! [16 Apr. 2013]

EVEN TODAY!! A 6.1 quake hit the Japan region! [21 Apr. 2013]

The number of earthquakes that have hit this past week around the world amounts to around 286!! 

Can you believe how many earthquakes are shaking our world day after day? If you would like to take a look at the earthquake map for yourself, click on this link below:
http://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/map/

In chapter 24 , verse 20, we read that:

²⁰ The earth shall reel to and fro like a drunkard, and shall be removed like a cottage; and the transgression thereof shall be heavy upon it; and it shall fall, and not rise again.

The earth shall “reel to and fro like a drunkard”.. this is what is happening to our world.   The earth is like a drunkard.. how? The earth is drunk from sin. Yes, OUR SIN!!

The earth was once a beautiful, peaceful creation of God. It had been made by God for His creation of humans to inhabit. Now, what has become of this?

Can you believe that most of the humans that God Himself created and gave life to, now deny the very existence of God? What is going on? When did man start denying the True God?

In our world, sin began with Eve, when she fell to the tricks of the devil. As I have told you in my earlier posts, the very mission of the devil is to trick us into defying our Father. Be careful of his tricks. But still, a huge majority of the people in this generation have sadly already fallen to his temptations, unknowingly, and continue in their sins and wrong-doings.

People carry hatred, jealousy and wickedness in heart, cheat each other, murder and steal, torture and tease; all of this for what purpose exactly? People do the worst sins against each other nowadays, become enslaved by devilish addictions of all kinds, etc. For what? Where is the love that once ruled our hearts?

The devil is working his way through the hearts of man and woman. The main reason why most people choose to fall for sin is because it seems to be the easiest way. The widest path for them to follow.

“Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:” [Mathew Chapter 7 verse 13]

And what has become of our earth from the severity of our sins? It “reels to and fro like a drunkard”. The earth can no longer take the burden of our sins which we act upon its surface, and it is beginning to crumble from our sins and cruelty.

Watching an earthquake in action would definitely seem like the earth beneath is reeling about, shaking and swinging like a drunkard. Quake after quake after quake is shaking this world which we live on, and yet, will anyone, ANYONE, consider turning to the living God?

I await with prayers to see if anyone at all, no matter from what corner of the earth, will finally repent and turn to the right path. THE PATH TO SALVATION.

Open your eyes, my dear friends; we can no longer be ignorant of what is going on around us. The coming of Christ is imminent. REPENT while you still can. Share this with your friends as well. Spread the message of salvation to everyone you know.

God bless you and may the peace of Christ be with you , till next time!

 

 

Jesus Loves you..

Stay tuned for tomorrow’s post everyone! Hope and pray till then.. God bless!!

What is the devil doing?

Good morning dear readers, this is a beautiful day! Let us continue our subject of thought, shall we?

Last time I explained to you exactly what the devil wants you to think. He disguises himself

Yeah, this guy IS NOT YOUR FRIEND..

as “alien beings” or whatnot to make you think that there are actually extraterrestrial creatures out there, “watching over you”. Please, my dear friends, do not be deceived.

Like I said before, the devil will disguise himself as an angel of light to trick the people of this world and make them doubt the Word of God.

Now,  the devil is always on the look out to harm you if he gets a chance. But do not be afraid, because we can make sure that he doesn’t get a chance like that.

First of all, if you are being tortured by any sickness or illness, or if you just can’t find peace of mind, then you must realize it is the doing of the devil, and not the Lord.

In Luke, Chapter 11, verse 14, we read of how a dumb person got healed:

“And he was casting out a devil, and it was dumb. And it came to pass, when the devil was gone out, the dumb spake; and the people wondered.”

It turns out that it was not the person that was dumb; it was rather the devil that had caught hold of him that was dumb. The devil had the defect, and so when he caught hold of that person, his defect played out as the person’s defect. Do you see how the devil can make his own characteristics play out in you? This is the same way that some people do the most devilish things to others around them. Some people commit such heinous crimes to other innocent souls, that anyone would wonder if a normal human would have the heart to do such a thing.. Yes, it’s not human nature to do these evil things. It is none other but the devil. The devil is very tricky, and you have to be careful and strong in your faith to repel him.

This is why I urge you to realize that the devil is the one responsible for all your illnesses. If you are diseased right now, all it takes is one rebuke in the name of the Lord, and the devil will flee.

Now, if you think that the devil can attack you and affect you at any time, then think again. The devil has no right or authority to harm you, UNLESS you give him that authority.

Here’s what I mean by that: Ephesians 04:27 says:

²⁷ Neither give place to the devil.

You’re the one responsible for not letting the devil inside

You are the one responsible for keeping the devil out of your heart. You have the decision to make about who you’re going to give place in your heart to: the Living Jesus Christ, or the devil. Sin, reject Christ, ignore the Word of God, and your heart is already occupied by the evil spirit. On the other hand, repent, pray, love God, be righteous, believe, and you your life will be much better, for the King of Kings will dwell within your heart.

You are the one responsible for holding up your faith and repelling the devil. How can you repel the devil? Here’s how:
Ephesians chapter 6 verse 11 says:

“Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.”

That is precisely how you can stand against the devil’s attacks. Put on the WHOLE armor of God, not just a few parts of it. In my previous posts, I have talked in detail about each and every part of the armor, and you can check each of them out by moving your mouse over the tab that says “Armor of God” and clicking on each article. 

The devil does not like anything you do to please God. He wants control over man, the creation of God, and he’s constantly trying to make his dreams come true. Our faith and righteousness is what shatters his dreams.

Every time we stand up for the Lord, every time we proclaim His kingdom, every time we turn away from sin, every time we pray for the will of God, we are trampling upon the devil’s spirit. Every time we preach the word of God, every time we lead another to faith, every time we reject the tempting offers of the devil, his plans are failing, and his powers are becoming useless against us and the ones around us.

No one wants to hear about the devil. Most people just go on about the blessings of the Lord and teach people of nothing but bliss and happiness. Yes, the Lord is a good God. He is the kindest Being to ever exist. But we need to also be aware of how the devil, our enemy, works. How can we defeat or proclaim victory over an enemy unless we know his tactics and know how to fight them?

I am not afraid to speak of the devil, because he is nothing but a liar, an evil entity that wants nothing but to destroy the happiness of the True Children of God, and if my readers know what tricks he has in his hat, then my readers will be able to foresee his deception and fight against him.

Our Lord has already claimed victory over sin and death. He is the King of all Kings, and the ultimate power is with Him. Victory is His, and victory is ours.

Outer Life?

Good morning dear readers!

Today I would like to discuss with you a subject that we did touch a few months ago.. the topic of OUTER LIFE in this world.

People around the world are experiencing the presence of these so-called “aliens” or whatnot, seeing their flying saucers roam about the skies, some people even seeing these creatures face to face.

Now, you may be very skeptical about these accounts of eye witnesses, first of all, but let me tell you, although there are many hoaxes out there and there are many fake people out there trying to deceive you, you must think of one thing though: why would this become such an issue of global proportions if it’s fake?

Amidst all those hoaxes, there are thousands of sightings and cases that still remain a mystery and unable to have been proved false. And also, for so many people around the world to have claimed to have seen the same types of flying objects and aliens that have the same basic characteristics, you cannot just ignore the concept of aliens as a fairytale.

Since we have established the possibility that these things are real, let me restate my opinion as clearly as I can:
THESE “ALIENS” ARE DEVILS. They are the race of the fallen angel, NOT ALIENS OR BEINGS FROM ANOTHER PLANET.

John Chapter 8 verse 44 says:

“Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.”

The devil is the father of all lies. He will tell you lie after lie after lie in order to deceive you. Do not be deceived. He will try to prove that he does not even exist. 

The devil is always trying to make you think that he’s not the devil, just so that you will doubt the Word of God. That’s why he disguises himself as these “aliens”.

2 Corinthians 11:14 says:

“And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light.”

Yes, the devil will disguise himself as an angel of light.. He will make you think he’s from a race of aliens that is “trying to protect humanity” or “watching over us”, etc. You would be surprised by the amount of lies that are being fed into the minds of people these days.

There’s a great group of people out there that actually believe that “aliens” are here to help us. What can I say? I feel sorry for them. My question to those people is, so you can believe that a bunch of flying lights can help you, but you still cannot believe that the true living God sent His Son to die for you?

You are curious to get to know “aliens” and make contact with them, when they are here to blind you from the truth, but you don’t find any need whatsoever to get to know your true Father in Heaven? You don’t even want to pray for a minute and speak to the one Being that can help you and give you eternal life?

Let me ask you this: what are you dying to know about? What taps into your curiosity the most? I urge you to take part in this survey, which will be open for the next two weeks.

We will talk more about this topic next time. If you would like to get to know more about me, come join my Christian Facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/435132349896912/

Clicking on it will take you to a new window. Or you can e-mail me at: steny8295@yahoo.in

Or if you’d like prayer for healing, e-mail my father Evg. Joy Simon at: joysimonapb@yahoo.com

The Lord is working many miracles these days. Even yesterday a family from India called in asking for prayer for their daughter who instantly got healed. You can be healed as well, if you believe.

Don’t hesitate to contact me for any questions or concerns.. God bless you, till next time!

Open Your Eyes

My dear readers,

I apologize for not posting for the last few times, as I was preoccupied with my studies. I really am very sorry.

Today I would like to discuss with you what is going on in this world. I do not know if you are aware of this, but the number of earthquakes and other natural disasters is on the constant rise nowadays. I know, such things have been occurring for a long time, but this is not like that. No, these days, over a hundred earthquakes are shaking our planet every day. YES!

Click on this link to see just how many earthquakes have occurred in just this day:

http://quakes.globalincidentmap.com/

Can you believe it? Around 100 EARTHQUAKES in one day! This morning!

The end times are here, my friends. This is your chance to repent and turn to God NOW!

Look at these pictures of how many earthquakes have hit in the past week itself:

All the blue marks represent earthquakes of a 4 to 5 point intensity, and the yellow ones represent a 5 to 6 point intensity earthquake. These are very dangerous ones.

The red ones are very intense, serious and damaging earthquakes of a 6 point or higher intensity.

Mark 13:8:

⁸For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles: these are the beginnings of sorrows.

These are just the beginning, my friends! There are many things yet to come!

But one thing is for sure: WE ARE IN THE END TIMES.

I know this is probably making most of you think that I am just either crazy or just plain bored. Trust me, I have a million things to take care of in my life, and yet I am taking my time on this to make sure that I get the truth out to my readers. I don’t mind if you decide to hate me after this post, but I have to deliver the truth that God has shown me and my family.

Whether you want to believe it or not, the truth is the truth. I have promised my readers to deliver to them nothing but the pure truth, and I hold up my promise until the very end. Therefore I tell you, this is what is happening. Biblical plagues have started affecting many places.

A river in China turns blood red.

We are hearing of possible war scenarios, natural disasters, famine, locust, plagues, droughts, earthquakes, blood-red rivers and lakes, etc. each and every day. Do you ever stop to think what all these may mean?

My friends, the Lord is coming soon!

If you are a sinner, you have no more time to keep delaying this for tomorrow. The time is upon you to repent and turn to the living God NOW!!

When the day of the Lord comes, I know that every single person who has read this blog will have no excuse to say that they did not know about the Lord. They will have no excuse to say that they didn’t know about salvation. If you are reading this right now, you know exactly what to do.

Repent, pray and be born again. The Lord can come at any moment. I know most of you will ignore my messages, but trust me, God knows this and so do His children, for we all know from the time of Noah, that the bearers of truth will always be ignored by those who are to perish.

But those who are to be saved will accept the truth, and repent.

 

I hope and pray that my readers are of the latter group, and may God bless you.

Please feel free to contact me if you have questions or concerns: steny8295@yahoo.in

or my father Evg. Joy Simon if you are in need of prayer: joysimonapb@yahoo.com

You can contact either of us if you wish to learn more and if you wish to know the Lord closer and repent. We are here for your guidance and help.

Till next time, may the peace of Christ be with you.

 

Miracles can happen.. if you believe.

The time when we were in India was a very blessed one indeed. We had, as a family, been praying for three months straight with the one aim of seeing the miracles of God happen before our very own eyes.

And it did! Our prayers were always on Saturdays, and one Saturday, a man came to the prayer. My father had been praying for another woman, when the man suddenly said that he was healed. We later found out that the man had had a tumor in his stomach, and it had been bothering him. He had been waiting for his turn to talk about his problems, but when he came and sat for prayer, the tumor disappeared completely!

I also remember something that happened when I was a very small child, but the incident remains clear as crystal in my memory. My father had gone as a guest to another church, and there, he was given the opportunity to speak about the power of God which can heal anyone. Hearing this, a woman came forward with her little daughter, and said that the girl did not have the ability to speak. She had been that way ever since her early childhood. I believe when she came to the prayer, she was about 7 or 8 years old.

My father asked her first to say something to everyone, but she couldn’t. She tried, but she just couldn’t. Then my father asked her to open her mouth, and he placed his hand on her tongue, and rebuked the devil in the mighty name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, and then he asked her if she could speak, and to our surprise, she said yes!!

My father gave her the microphone, and asked her to say praise, and she did, and he asked her to repeat after him, saying thank you God for healing me, and she repeated everything he said! I still remember that little innocent little voice glowing with hope when she repeated every word my father said through the microphone. Everyone in the church started crying and praising God and it was a heavenly worship that day!

Miracles like that of Christ’s time still happens, and it can happen to anyone, if they believe in it.If you would like to talk to me more about it or if you would like to discuss something in person, e-mail me at: steny8295@yahoo.in or my father at: joysimonapb@yahoo.com

God bless you!

Your Sword, Soldier

Ephesians Chapter 6, verse 17:

¹⁷ And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:

Greetings dear readers! Last but not least, one of the main components of the armor of God is the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.

The word of God is the only real weapon we have as part of the armor. We have the belt of truth, the breastplate of righteousness, the shoes of the gospel of peace, the shield of faith, and the helmet of salvation – each and every one of these parts are meant to protect us from the enemy.

But the one weapon that we are given to use against our enemy is the word of God.

Many people tend to wonder how words can be useful in battle. In our spiritual battle, the word of God is our one piercing sword against the enemy. The Word of God is much more powerful than we think, my dear friends.

If we think back to the book of Genesis, we read that when creating the earth, God said “Let there be light : and there was light.” He said “Let the waters under heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear : and it was so.”

God used His mighty word to command things to come into existence. We read that He used  His words to create every single thing on earth, including animals and plants and birds and fish and insects and trees and grass.. His word gave life to everything.Man is the only being that He didn’t command to come into existence, but He made man Himself.

When you think of it, the Word of God is so unthinkably powerful. Jesus Christ is the manifestation of the word of God that God gave flesh and sent to earth for us.

Having the Word of God as our sword is the best thing that can ever happen to us, because the power of the word is so great that it can defeat any enemy, and has authority over everything.

Love is Patient

Warm greetings to my dearest readers this morning. I apologize for not posting last week.. Today I would like to talk more about love.

One of the main commandments of Jesus Christ, our master, is to love one another. Love your friend like yourself. Love everyone, even your enemies. That is how we can identify the true Children of God in this chaotic world. By our love, we can find one another.

Have you ever thought of how loving our God is? We all talk on and on about how “God is love” and that He loved us so much He died for us, but do you ever seriously stop and think for a second, just how much He loves us?

People around the world still hate Jesus Christ and His followers, and it is really sad to see that Christians are being mocked for our belief and for telling the truth and trying to save people. Let’s face the truth – things are not as pretty as we think. The world still hates us more and more.

And why do they hate us? Because they do not have Christ, the ultimate form of love, in their hearts. God is almighty and powerful. He is the most powerful Being to ever be, and yet why did He let His only begotten Son die on the cross, being ridiculed by His enemies?

Why did He not use His power to save Himself from the cross? Why did He not use His power to stop the hammers of His enemies from nailing Him to the cross? Why?

Because He loved us, and He was dying for us. He endured all that torture silently, when He could have saved Himself at any time.

Being the children of God, we must learn to practice this patient love in our lives. Be patient to everyone. Forgive to your limits and beyond. Love people when they hate you.

Declare victory over hatred by the ever-growing love given to us by our Lord. Our love is what makes us different from the world. Our love is, my friends, what makes us isolated in this world, but our love is the light of this world. Every time we show kindness and love to those around us, we are spreading the comforting light of Christ, and we are defeating the devil’s plans.

So let us forget our hate and sorrows, and forget the wrongs of others, and try to make a change in this world.
