Just a quick a reminder:

Jeremiah 7:23 KJV
But this thing commanded I them, saying, Obey my voice, and I will be your God, and ye shall be my people: and walk ye in all the ways that I have commanded you, that it may be well unto you.

God knows you can’t obey him completely, so He is more interested in how much you want to obey Him. To want to obey Him more, you must grasp a true understanding of obedience and how it builds or destroys relationships.

From the six-year-old who leaves her playmates because her mother has called her in for dinner to the business executive who pays his taxes on time, we all live in a web of relationships that depend upon obedience to authority.

Like a loving parent or a responsible government, God sets standards of behavior for your own good and to protect you from evil and harm.

Some people defy authority, but obedience to God actually frees us to enjoy life as God intended because it keeps us from becoming entangled in this life's harmful situations.

Like the story of the parable of the Sower in the Bible:

Matthew 13:22 KJV
He also that received seed among the thorns is he that heareth the word; and the care of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, choke the word, and he becometh unfruitful.

Material things and earthly pleasures might hinder and misdirect us from obedience to God. So we need to be mindful of how we live our lives.

Even though God’s commandments are sometimes difficult to obey, or sometimes they don’t make sense from our human perspective. Obedience to His words will always bring blessing, joy, and peace.

Like it was said in this 2 verses:

James 1:25 KJV
But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.

Joshua 1:8b KJV
for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success.

When you look at obedience this way, then you obey God out of love and gratitude for all he’s trying to do for you rather than out of fear of being punished.

The more you obey out of love, the more you want to obey, and the more that obedience becomes a lifestyle rather than a chore. The more that obedience becomes a lifestyle, the less you are tempted to avoid the consequences of poor decisions.

We need to be mindful how we obey God, because actions can be fake, but God sees what's in our hearts our intentions and emotions.

We'll always be tested, even in small matters like honesty vs. dishonesty or pride vs. humility. Sometimes it's not the big tasks that are hard to follow, but rather the simple, small acts of obedience to God that we often neglect and justify, thinking they're just minor sins. We might assume God won't be angry or will understand our reasons

But that's not how it works, God will always hate sin and disobedience to His words are always be a transgression to Him even in a big or small things, wrong doings always have a consequences and punishments but obedience to Him will always bring a blessings to us.

Let's consistently ask God in prayer to give us the strength to continue doing what's right to His sight. Because God will help and lead us in every situation.

Psalm 23:3b KJV
he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

Psalm 37:23 KJV
The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way.

Since God is the creator of life, he knows how life is supposed to work. Obedience to his ways demonstrates your willingness to follow through on what he says is best. It shows your trust that God’s way will work for you, and that will inspire the people around you.

Lastly, this is one of my favorites stories in the Bible about what happens if you follow God's word.

Matthew 7:24-27 KJV
Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: [25] And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. [26] And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: [27] And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.

Both people mentions in the close of Jesus sermon on the mount share in common their exposure to His teaching. The difference is that one follows Jesus' words and the other ignores them.

The different outcomes don't demonstrate that one life is easier than the other (they both experience storms); rather, one survives and thrives while the other collapses.

Hebrews 10:23 KJV
23 Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)

God never fails ❤️

Just a quick reminder:

In our daily lives, it's very important for us to remember that how we see and perceive things can greatly affect how we react and respond to what's happening in our lives.

Our emotions and actions will be determined by the views and perceptions we have in every situations.

The bible tells us in this verses:

Matthew 6:22-23 KJV
[22] The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light. [23] But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!

We should look at every circumstance in a positive way, so we can think and act in the right way.

While a wrong view to situation can lead to a troubled heart and a clouded mind, which in turn leads to wrong actions.

Remember the story of 12 Israelite spies in the bible in the book of NUMBERS Chapter 13-14, when Moses gathered to every Israel tribes a men to spy out the land of Canaan for 40 days.

Because of the wrong perspective on the situation, the 10 spies brought back an evil report when they came back, emphasizing the giants they saw living in that land, which stirred fear among Israelites. However, Joshua and Caleb, who saw the land's richness and goodness, remained optimistic, knowing that God had promised to give them a land that flowing with milk and honey.

Sometimes we have a wrong view when it comes to true blessings; we think that financial and material blessings are greater to be thank for than waking up every morning with renewed strength, good health or safely went home from work and accomplished a bunch of endless task.

We see it as a small thing and taking it for granted like it's just a natural aspect of our lives as if we're the ones who controls it.

But the bible said in:

James 4:14 KJV
[14] Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.

Tomorrow is always uncertain for us, so we should recognize and appreciate our true blessings every day.

We're always dealing with different challenges that life throws at us, and it's like a never ending solving of problems. Sometimes varying in depth, weight and form but are the same which called problems. However, the good news is that these problems can turn into a blessings if we view them in GOD's perspective.

The bible tells us in:

Romans 8:28 KJV
[28] And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

Nothing happens to our life that are insignificant. Whatever we are dealing with whether if it's bad situation, hardship, loss of loved ones or a job, even failure in school or business.

GOD is telling us that it's for our own good, God allows it not because He wants to punish us. But the truth is, He uses trials and problems to build us, train us and develop us to whatever we need not to whatever we expect to this life.

at first, we might not understand why all this is happening, but it's all part of God's plan, it is a test that in the end, we will learn the lessons that comes from patience, faith and endurance if we not give up and trust the LORD. The experiences and the lessons are the preparation that makes us more deserving for the blessings we're asking for and what God is prepared for us.

Life is hard, as its always supposed to be. But don't complain, being a follower of Christ doesn't mean life will going to be easy, but rather life gets more complicated yet becomes more meaningful as we live a life depending on Him and not on ourselves alone.

We should always find ways to be thankful, be grateful to whatever God has given and done for us. Big and small, great or little, not only on materials things but also to those trials and test that God's allows to happen in our lives that changed us for the better. Turning our problems into a blessings and seeing things in God's perspective will makes us see what God is doing for you and allowing Him to work with you and we will find so much to thank for instead of complaining.

Lastly let's remember this verses in the bible:

James 1:2-4 KJV
My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; [3] Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. [4] But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.

God bless you ❤️

Just a quick reminder:

In this uncertain world that we live in, big problems and challenges can easily overwhelmed us. No matter in what aspect of life you're going through right now:

Family relationship and responsibilities, tiring job conflicts, school needs and deadlines, choosing between pursuing a new career or a job, or even retaining or starting a new business.

It's like giving up is the easiest way just to end all of it and let it pass.

Most of the time we felt that we're stuck, too late, don't have a chance or we can't do something about it.

Dealing it solely can be exhausting, making a way out on our own and having no one to talk to about it. That's when anxiety and stress comes, but the truth is we easily forget that we are not alone in all this battles that we're facing.

Keep in mind that don't let worry, doubt and fear rule your heart when dealing in this kind of situations. But rather fill it up with trust, believe and faith in God that He can help you in whatever situation you are in right now.

Know that God is willing, ready and waiting for you to come to Him and help you. The bible reminds us in this verses:

Isaiah 41:10 KJV
Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.

The Lord is beside you all throughout the way, cast out all the fear and discouragement and remember that God is fighting alongside you. You are not alone.

Mark 11:24 KJV
Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.

Whatever heart desire you have, ask God confidently in Faith. Believe in your heart that He can give whatever you asked of Him and don't doubt even a bit. Just believe.


Ephesians 3:20 KJV
Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,

Nothing is too hard and impossible with God, you haven't seen it yet but miracles do happen. God is able.

So next time you're dealing with a big problems and challenges, rest assured that you are not alone. God is always there to help you, by His grace you can get through with it. He just wants you to believe that He can.

Don't let your worry be greater than your Faith. Have a big Faith.

Knowing CHRIST died, that's history.

Believing CHRIST died for me, that's Salvation.

ACTS 4:12 KJV
Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.
