1 Kings 19:8 (New International Version)

8 So he got up and ate and drank. Strengthened by that food, he traveled forty days and forty nights until he reached Horeb, the mountain of God.

NOw, God is telling me something apart from getting up, and resume with life. he says,

All the strength supplied to us by our gracious God is meant for service, not for wantonness or boasting. When the prophet Elijah found the cake baked on the coals, and the cruse of water placed at his head, as he lay under the juniper tree, he was no gentleman to be gratified with dainty fare that he might stretch himself at his ease; far otherwise, he was commissioned to go forty days and forty nights in the strength of it, journeying towards Horeb, the mount of God. When the Master invited the disciples to "Come and dine" with Him, after the feast was concluded He said to Peter, "Feed my sheep"; further adding, "Follow me." Even thus it is with us; we eat the bread of heaven, that we may expend our strength in the Master's service. We come to the passover, and eat of the paschal lamb with loins girt, and staff in hand, so as to start off at once when we have satisfied our hunger. Some Christians are for living on Christ, but are not so anxious to live for Christ. Earth should be a preparation for heaven; and heaven is the place where saints feast most and work most. They sit down at the table of our Lord, and they serve Him day and night in His temple. They eat of heavenly food and render perfect service. Believer, in the strength you daily gain from Christ labour for Him. Some of us have yet to learn much concerning the design of our Lord in giving us His grace. We are not to retain the precious grains of truth as the Egyptian mummy held the wheat for ages, without giving it an opportunity to grow: we must sow it and water it. Why does the Lord send down the rain upon the thirsty earth, and give the genial sunshine? Is it not that these may all help the fruits of the earth to yield food for man? Even so the Lord feeds and refreshes our souls that we may afterwards use our renewed strength in the promotion of His glory.

Mr. MacDonald asked the inhabitants of the island of St. Kilda how a man must be saved. An old man replied, "We shall be saved if we repent, and forsake our sins, and turn to God." "Yes," said a middle-aged female, "and with a true heart too." "Ay," rejoined a third, "and with prayer"; and, added a fourth, "It must be the prayer of the heart." "And we must be diligent too," said a fifth, "in keeping the commandments." Thus, each having contributed his mite, feeling that a very decent creed had been made up, they all looked and listened for the preacher's approbation, but they had aroused his deepest pity. The carnal mind always maps out for itself a way in which self can work and become great, but the Lord's way is quite the reverse. Believing and being baptized are no matters of merit to be gloried in-they are so simple that boasting is excluded, and free grace bears the palm. It may be that the reader is unsaved-what is the reason? Do you think the way of salvation as laid down in the text to be dubious? How can that be when God has pledged His own word for its certainty? Do you think it too easy? Why, then, do you not attend to it? Its ease leaves those without excuse who neglect it. To believe is simply to trust, to depend, to rely upon Christ Jesus. To be baptized is to submit to the ordinance which our Lord fulfilled at Jordan, to which the converted ones submitted at Pentecost, to which the jailer yielded obedience the very night of his conversion. The outward sign saves not, but it sets forth to us our death, burial, and resurrection with Jesus, and, like the Lord's Supper, is not to be neglected. Reader, do you believe in Jesus? Then, dear friend, dismiss your fears, you shall be saved. Are you still an unbeliever, then remember there is but one door, and if you will not enter by it you will perish in your sins.

celebrating a NOTSOGOOD day

hey!

i amnow in my gramps house. basically,a whole lot of event took place today. basically. yup. in the morning i went to school, having a supposedly short yet hectic day. I was stricken with migrAIN but eventually i was rid of it. after having a rather fruitful day at school, i went home and seeked GOD- being guilty of procrastinating, and of course missing a day's connect time with God. It was rather unbearable because i needed to hear God, but stricken with a cloud in my head, I could'nt get on with what i wanted t do.amazingly, when i turned on the player with a christian cd playing, i felt more urge to turn to God's word. guess what?! i wanted t flip t the given passage seen in yesterday's devotion, but somehow, i flipped to the wrong verse, but through this verse was what God spoke to me! I knew it was GoD! check this out:

Mark 14:38 (New International Version)
New International Version (NIV)
Copyright © 1973, 1978, 1984 by International Bible Society


38Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the body is weak."

isn't this juust SO GOD??!!

well, my time ended here,of course i did prAY ABIT BUT BEcause I needed to bring the laundry downstairs, and wash it- which slipped my mind.
okays, basically, i rushed off to the library to meet my CG mates. i was teaching cheesebun-who is wee kiat, POA! hahas
for the entire time there, it was just on trading profit and loss a/c!! hahas. amazingly, it was fruitful. In the end, naomi, Chelsea, Wee kiat, Desiree, Sylvia, and Darren came to my place for dinner. It was porridge. Surprisingly after naomi, wee kiat, and chelsea left, the leftovers had a mini chat session, it was really good. My mum shared much about God, and so the others too. I listened and was just blest by all that was mentioned. This time ended with a powerful-spontaneous time of prayer!

It was the time where much miracles was revealed! haha.
well, after that, i was walking my dog with my bro, just sending Darren and Sylvia off at AMK side, and on the way to Gramps place, to deliver food, so i was handling the bag of food-filled containers while my bro took the dog, it was pretty much heavy because i could feel the strain on my arms even after i put it down, it was shivering even! anyway, i ran with the bag cause my bro was running with the dog, and i had to chase after him cause it felt rather unsafe without my bro with me at a time like this.

i did'nt how and when my wallet fell off the bag, but it was gone. I felt jittered. But as i pondered, i realise that its a plot the devil's using against me from drawing me away from God. He tried this the first time and succeeded, but not this time! I am going to stand firm! God gave me (1corinthians15:58) n (matthew6:33) the 2 verses for me, in this season! i shall not let the devil manipulate me! I will find my way to church and i will read the online bible now! and seek GOD! NOW!
