Real love in this Valentine's day

 The Greatest Love of All

“And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love”
(1 Corinthians 13:13, NKJV)

In our culture today, so many people are confused about what love is. We love pizza, movies and sports, but we also love our family or spouse. If we look to the Word of God, we see God’s definition of love. First Corinthians 13 tells us that “love is patient and kind. It does not envy, nor boast. It is not proud. It is not rude. It does not seek its own way, is not easily angered, and keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not rejoice in evil, but rejoices in the truth. Love believes, hopes and endures. Love never fails.” This is how God responds to us, and this is how we should respond to the people in our lives — with patience, kindness, hope, humility and love. Scripture tells us that God is love, and His character never changes!

Today and every day, know that God loves you with an everlasting love. He will never leave you nor forsake you. He is for you and has a good plan for you. Receive His perfect love today and let Him transform you from the inside out. His love is the greatest love and will last throughout all eternity!

Give your heart to Him. He never will relent of you. He always loves you, carry you and be with you

Denial

 Denial

When you are confronted, what is your reaction?!

Indeed pride, a false perception of the reality and stubborn, are things that cover the denial.

In Matthew 26 Jesus see a hard situation coming and to prepare the disciples’ hearts to bear it.

Peter says not, I will not do that!

In the confront: 1 - Deny

2 - Don’t accept

3 – Do not take any responsibility

4 - Put himself in a position of evidence and call himself innocent

Denial is a common thing in the people's lives. No one wanna to take weakness, fear, limitation, lost and sins in front of nobody.

An ask is: Do Deny do something different?

Do deny changes the inevitable?

Do deny give us spiritual growing or spiritual maturity?

We have spent long time denying. We have spent time denying weakness, sins and laziness when we are confronted about some bad acts that we do. We deny to try protect us BUT, the end is…. Fall.

We deny laziness with the justification of ‘ I have no time’

We deny some carnal acts with the justification of ' everybody sins, who never do that?'

We deny our negligence in the bible's read, time of prayer and evangelism saying: time is short, I can't stay concentrated!

We talk bad about peoples whom shows us our sins, so,

We deny and stop

We deny and fall

We say: No I'm not like that, when indeed we are.

AS Peter we deny, but, you and I know what happened in the end. Peter, as Jesus warned , denied Him. Even Peter said in loud voice: NO MASTER, I WILL NEVER DO THAT.

There are some areas in your life that you are denying?

Be closed to changes is the reason to don't be blessed  (but be changed and made new in mind, so that by experience you may have knowledge of the good and pleasing and complete purpose of God. Rm 12:2) we don't open our minds to changes and stay stopped! We have to understand that conversion means change don't justification. Conversion means ACTION, because deny produces death!

Matthew 26:69-74 ...Then with curses and oaths he said, I have no knowledge of the man. And straight away there came the cry of a cock.And the word of Jesus came back to Peter, when he said, Before the hour of the cock's cry, you will say three times that you have no knowledge of me. And he went out, weeping bitterly

Deny in a confront killed Peter. When he denied that Jesus was right, it gave him a bad fruit. Just when Peter recognized what had happened and to taken what Jesus said as right, the Holy Spirit could brings to him the real repentance and the real healing, doing him one of most preachers of the history. His first sermon more than 3 thousand people gave their lives to Jesus.

To confess and accept a correction is the right way.

Jesus bless you

Spiritual Intelligence

Exodus 14:9-21
The Egyptians—all Pharaoh's horses and chariots, horsemen and troops—pursued the Israelites and overtook them .... (verse 9)

What to do?! The pressure is around and in all the time.

As the people of Israel, before us we have our past yelling at our ears. It shouts: Come back to me. Come back to drank, enjoy the flesh pleasure, it is easy and you know what to do. In opposite to this, we have an uncertain future, full of doubt, challenges and obstacle to be faced.

To think in come back to the past is easy, we know what to do. There, there are bits of pleasures and  joy, even we cry and suffer, always there are a 'Friday' where everybody can drank and forget for minutes all pain, anguish and uncertain thought that insist in live around us. But the future... what to think about that! As the Israelites, in some moments of our lives all that we can see is the big, insurmountable sea.  Sea of difficulties, big dreams hard to find, some things impossible to us

I don't know you but I know that in some part of your life you are, getting the pressure! May be at finances area, sentimental area or health. Whatever it is, everybody, early or later will face 'the pressure'.
Lots of people choose to cede pressure and, after become a Christian, come back to old life because not choose the "Spiritual Intelligence".

Some people are very intelligent in their business, know how to win money but are fool in order to choose what is right to do to get a peacefully life. Those that are spiritual fool choose the easy way, that obvious way. They change eternity for what is earthy. They change serious relationship to five minutes of pleasure.

The Israelites said: God brought us here to die! Before the pressure, they used not the Spiritual intelligence, they just chosen what is easy to think! Exodus 14:11 They said to Moses, "Was it because there were no graves in Egypt that you brought us to the desert to die?" BUT Moses, a Spiritual Intelligent man, said: "Do not be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the LORD will bring you today."

Dear reader,  don’t cede pressure, choose the Intelligence, choose God and His words even when all things seems impossible or hard.

God opened the sea to that people; He will do the same to you. All that you need to do is: TO MOVE

Move your thoughts, action and focus to God's things and all things will get better

The step is yours, the miracle to GOD belongs: ...all that night the LORD drove the sea back with a strong east wind and turned it into dry land. The waters were divided, and the Israelites went through the sea on dry ground

laugh yes they laughed

"While he was saying this, a ruler came and knelt before him and said, "My daughter has just died. But come and put your hand on her, and she will live...When Jesus entered the ruler's house and saw the flute players and the noisy crowd, he said, The girl is not dead but asleep." But they laughed at him. After the crowd had been put outside, he went in and took the girl by the hand, and she got up." Matthew 9:18-25

Laughed of Him!

O! So it means that to laugh of a new way to think is an old thing!

Yes, people laugh when see another people thinking different of crowd. They laugh when see someone believing in the impossible. Laugh because for them, hard things just be hard things, and nothing can change it ( sad for them, I know) so, all that they can do is L A U G H.

Ok
For those, I will leave you living your ordinary life.
Now, stay with me those whom wants an extraordinary life…
We read about a died girl that, when Jesus get her home, she come back to life. When He said it, no one believed in Him, and they laughed!
Yes, I know, it is common. When I say, Jesus loves you, or Jesus can brings a new life to you and help you with your misfortunes they laugh, poor!
Weak people laugh because can’t reach this strong unseen power! They live within their own thoughts, philosophy and limitations, and never open their mind to know or touch in the ‘impossible’, then, they laugh.
They laugh when someone try show them a new way to life and laugh is a escape because they don’t know a free life and, just to think in go out from their ordinary lives make them fear, so…they laugh, living a limited unhappy life.
Ok,
I can live hear laughter
I just can’t live without hear the voice of my Savior saying me:
Go daughter, your faith have saved you.
Be courageous, say yes and allow Jesus show that He is able to change all "death in life" because He is The Life and there are no life without HIm

What God have you served

EM PORTUGUES - DEFININDO O SER HUMANO - CLIQUE AQUI
What defines you?
Do you feel lost, without your riches?
Does your temper change, in according with you outside appearance?
Would you feel lost without have what you have ( riches , status)?
Would you be able to give up something that you reached, just for work with needy or in a situation that are rejected by society?

Look to whom rejected transform rock in bread!

It is sad, but, people have been built 'what they are' over 'what they have'! They have defined the ‘inside life’ to what have behind their names: Doctor ‘X’, Function ‘Y’ or appearance ‘N’ .
They have changed the eternal reward, like a good character, clean conscience, love and compassion for “at all cost”
People are selling their soul by 30 minutes of fame and applause.
Oh God, big shortage!!!
The human have been so insecure about himself that, for 5 minutes of fame, sell a full good life.
Few are those who are securer about himself , that are able to change their 'status' to help needy or ill people who will not be able to return nothing that you have done!
Some people have tried, at all cost, stay yourself and to prove that are “someone” but, the God that I serve, says:
Whoever wants to save your live, will lose that – Luke 9:24

The God that I serve, says:
Whoever helps a needy, doesn’t let your right hand knows what the left hand does. Matthew 6:3

The God that I serve says:
Pray alone, don’t to be seen for all and your unseen God will reward you. Matthew 6:6

And the God that I serve says:
While people rejected their appearances, stile life, love for needy, patience and resignation, while they were chained, stoned and sawed in two…..
My God said
“Men whom the world was not worth" Hebrew 11:35-40
My God has taught me to be simple.
Just think
What God have you served?
Matthew 6:6-24

why some ask there are not answer

All of us need agree, the life is ambiguous!

Why so many pain and suffering?
These asking comes from of the thinking that the world and life are a ‘pleasure’s font’ and we are living in this earth for “be happy” above all! The people lives in an eternal seek for happiness. (See more. Click here)
With this kind of thoughts, people give all that they have (until them souls) in exchange to pleasure!
What are the vicious, debts, murders, stolen, but, an uncontrollable seek for pleasure, comfort, perfection and fast result!
And now, behold, bound by the Spirit, I am on my way to Jerusalem, not knowing what will happen to me there, except that the Holy Spirit solemnly testifies to me in every city, saying that bonds and afflictions await me."But I do not consider my life of any account as dear to myself, so that I may finish my course and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify solemnly of the gospel of the grace of God. Acts 20:22-24
Well, reading it we can think: For whom I have lived for?! I think that a good part of us just live for yourself, your pleasures and "rights". In Jesus, our 'right' is live for HIM.
And what so many out control before death! How it was something rare or something that couldn’t happen with some one!
Why this big idolatry for youth if as infant and oldness it is sure and fast!
All these questions shown an important point – we are so far from our inside, far from our Creator, because the answer is obvious!
But us, continually, get away from this real question, and why? So many people say me: I have no time to this, I need win more money, I need teach my sons how win money… 'And I will say to my soul, "Soul, you have many goods laid up for many years to come; take your ease, eat, drink and be merry."But God said to him, 'You fool! This very night your soul is required of you; and now who will own what you have prepared?'"So is the man who stores up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God." Luke12:19-21
Many people are spend your time in thing that one rain or earthquake can take out so fast!
Without a shadow of doubt, pleasure comes from God. He has done all of us with all of kind of sensation that we have. Pleasure is not sin. Sin is have pleasure as motto, as goal, motto of life!
Adultery, debts and all these bad thing, comes from all love for ego that people have lately! They are far from God, living by the ‘Original Sin'’ for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. Romans 3:23/ and Roman5:15
All of us need remember and agree that us, was born with the seed of sin within us and JUST Jesus can take it away, making us worth to the heaven and free. For if, by the trespass of the one man, death reigned through that one man, how much more will those who receive God's abundant provision of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ Romans 5:17. Deny this fact just forbid our sanctification and our growing Christian's Life! Many people, after know Jesus and give their lives to Him, think have done all that need and no more seek grow in faith and good actions. We never can forget that the ‘Original Sin’ is within all of us. We need care of our mouth, ear and eyes all the time for never allow them, to sin.
NEVERTHELESS the original sin DON’T TAKE OF US the responsibility for our acts. We are full responsible for all that we do, we have conscious which guide us to right, even that sometimes we chose do what’s wrong.
REMEMBER – we were put in this world, to live above of naturals’ instincts. Those controlled by the sinful nature cannot please God.You, however, are controlled not by the sinful nature but by the Spirit, if the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Christ. But if Christ is in you, your body is dead because of sin, yet your spirit is alive because of righteousness. Romans 8:8-10. Learn to live because the life is not a exactly science but God, through His Word and Holy Spirit teach each of us how have a better life.

How many times we sit over troubles and unfortunates, or just lazy and lack to will and say: God not bless me! O! Why a have such life?! AH! If I was like that person. If I could have such luck! But no, here I'm poor of me!!

We are lazy.

Almost all of us like to moan, to murmur and weep but don’t like to wake up and do something, because murmur and put all blame in unlucky or God is easier!

So here, we find Jabez - Jabez was more honorable than his brethren: and his mother called his name Jabez, saying, Because I bare him with sorrow. And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my border, and that thy hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it be not to my sorrow! And God granted him that which he requested. 1Chronicle 4:9,10

A cursed man, since his births. His mother, in her pain, do not limited word to send over him and to declare a bad life outside of the blessing from the Lord.

However Jabez, whom had no few reasons to be sad and grumpy, in a moment of despair, no weep nor to murmur, just cry out God and say:

- bless me – I don’t accept what I have now.

- enlarge my path – I have few things, I need more.

- keep me from harm – so I will be free from pain.

Amazing! Instead weep we see a good faith declaration! Jabez cried to God, the one whom could change his bad fate. The life brought to him few things and he needed more, and he knew that just You, OH God could bring to him, what he had not!

This man lived in pain. His life was no good then, he cried and changed his way!

What you need now?

Happiness?

Money?

Peace?

Impossible thing for men! Good because you have the One whom to cry…

…cry to Jesus, He will change your fate. All that I say for you today, no more to murmur about your way. There are a God whom love you and will help you.

Now you can choose weep or cry in faith to God change your destine!

Yes, if today you cry, your life no more will be the same.

Blessings………………………………………………♥

Real amor Real Love

Minha filha espiritual, Mariana, escreveu isso! O que dizer Mari, senão que eu te amo mais que tudo!

Você
Um sorriso que sonha, uma olhar que busca uma mão que abençoa, uma palavra que dirige, uma boca que esclarece, um ouvido que guarda, uns pés que delimitam território...
Um abraço que conforta, um beijo que confirma, um carinho meio sem jeito...

Um deixar momentâneo, um elogio progressista, uma correção que despedaça, uma quietude conhecida, uma alegria transbordante...
Um momento sem assunto, um estar sem motivo, um ficar numa combinação perfeita...
Um presente entregue, um tesouro descoberto, um amor sacudido e complicado de se descrever'
Eu te amo

Letters from my dear Mariana, love spiritual daugher!

You
A smile that dream, a look that search, a hand that blesses, who heads a word, a mouth that clarifies an ear that keep the things safe, feet demarcating territory ...
A comforting hug, a kiss that confirms a caring awkwardly ...

A momentary stop, a compliment progressive, a fix that shatters a quitted known, an overflowing joy ...
A time without issue, being without a reason, a stay in a perfect combination ...
A gift given, a treasure discovered a love jerky and complicated to describe '
I love you

know God

The ox knoweth his owner, and the ass his master's crib; but my people doth not know, my people doth not consider.

To me, it’s one of sadder bible verses! God say that until a donkey know his owner, but His people don’t know His voice!
WOooOW
Can you remember how many times God gave you a safer! How many times He answered your will, before you ask!
Psalm 105:5,27 says : REMEMBER the wonders He has done!...His wonders in the land of Ham. For me, our problem is that we have a lack memory. In our hard time, we clam to Jesus but, so fast is His salvation, is our capacity to forget His help and our misery before He in our lifes!
why?
Why we do it?
Could be because we are selfish? Could be because in all most, all the time, we just think in ourselves and UNTIl when we call to God, it's just to our own safe? So, when all things are well again, we "just forget" to seek God !
BUt thanks God for you mercy and grace Psalm 107:6,13,19 and 28 say: All the time that you call me..I answered you! YEAH - God never will pay us wiht our money! He love us.. always.

Remember what God has done! Follow Him. His paths always will guide us to good things, peace and rest!
Psalm 107:17 Fools because of their transgression, And because of their iniquities, are afflicted and suffered. All of our suffered, comes from our will
Jesus said that If we follow Him, we will find the light to life. Answer for our ask...rest for our soul!
NEVER FORGET WHAT GOS HAS DONE TO YOU

hard times

Exodus 14:10-30
"As Pharaoh approached, the Israelites looked up, and there were the Egyptians, marching after them. They were terrified and cried out to the LORD."

Sometimes seems that God guide us to hard circunstances. If we are people that like to worry and always think that God forget us, we live in trouble, inside and outside!
But, always that we get some hard time in our lives God wanna do the same: Show us your big power in middle of storm.

"Moses answered the people, "Do not be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the LORD will bring you today. The Egyptians you see today you will never see again.The LORD will fight for you; you need only to be still."

when you get trouble, in Jesus name, don't open your mouth to murmur. If you are a believer, just keep your eyes to Heaven and, just follow what God will say...

First v15 - He say - go and walk

Second v16 - see what I will do

So, first we do something, in the most part, it's means an step in faith, without see what will happen. Then, after it, we will SEE the blessing.

God is good always and always know waht will do. if you gave your life to Him, so, DOn't be afraid. He are leading you to good place. Now, If you have been leading to your own will, good luck, you will need
All those who belong to Jesus, He is yours Good luck.

The Israelites walked through the sea on dry ground with the waters a wall to the right and to the left. The Egyptians came after them in full pursuit, every horse and chariot and driver of Pharaoh racing into the middle of the sea. It was now the morning watch.

camp vacation 2009

Em Portugues clique aqui

Hello!

Of days 20 to 22, Julho/2209 were doing our second camp Vacation! Thanks God it was a wonderful time where we learn more of God, sanctify our lives and share about the love of the Lord. In all the time be clean your clothes, and never miss the oil on your head. ECL 9:8 - This was the basic text for whole camp. As Christians we can not comply with the good, much less with "being better than most! We need to be totally saints if we want to find salvation of the Lord. Without sanctification nobody will see the Lord! (Heb 12:14) We easily forget an important piece of the Word of God! It is important to remember ... Good work, social activities, frequency of worship and reading the Bible make paste of the life of every Christian, but we can never forget that salvation is the sanctification given by God through the cross of Jesus! We remembered to run to cross, confess ours sins and change of attitude. James 1:22-28 says that the abiding and not hearers of the Word will be saved. Yeah, after three days of services the morning and late evening, we were reminded that we will not leave this holy retreat UNLESS there is repentance in our hearts and in our actions TRANSFORMATION! Young people were reminded to sanctify everything they hear on your mp3 and mp4. were reminded that orkut (facebook) and all kind of Internet access has to be holy as they are in church, or indecent photos and comments have to be torn. Be holy in all body, soul and spirit (I Ts 5:23) That means that the hands, mind and mouth should not touch something that Jesus does not play! It was a time of many words and exhortation, and by the grace of God, we had the anointing of the Spirit that led us to have regrets and reconciliations. All time is Jesus praises! We hope you enjoy the pictures and is free to comment and share, too, until our next event .. Blessings, Community Connection See photos - click here

You are what you seek...

Daniel 10:12 Then he said to me, Fear not, Daniel, for from the first day that you set your mind and heart to understand and to humble yourself before your God, your words were heard, and I have come as a consequence of [and in response to] your words.

God always answer our prayers. All sincere and pure prayer. Always He do.If, seek it with humble heart, we will find what we need. Escape of the pride. Escape of the selfish. Forget all reasons through, day by day, you hang down, with desire of find what came by faith no by humam reason.
you are what you seek.

Stop the anger, abandon the rebellion, keep clean your heart... Seek the Lord and He will leave you find Him.

Your life is the result for yours seeks

that you set your mind and heart to understand ... your words were heard...

NEWS - What they talk about you?!!

I have heard of thee, that the spirit of the gods is in thee, and that light and understanding and excellent wisdom are found in thee...But I have heard of thee, that thou canst give interpretations, and dissolve doubts; now if thou canst read the writing, and make known to me the interpretation thereof, thou shalt be clothed with purple, and have a chain of gold about thy neck, and shalt be the third ruler in the kingdom. Daniel 5:14,16

Once someone told me: Listen to the people around you. Hear what they thinking and talk of you, most times is exactly what you are and not want it. We speak about ourselves. Raise our forces and try to minimize the maximum of our weaknesses. The fact is - we are who we are and not always gives deny! It is important to us as children of God, understand that we live in this earth to give glory to the name of Jesus. Perhaps you can tell me: but I'm not a preacher , or I have not called, or some else lot excuses, but ... To give glory to God, we do not have to be large employers, leaders of crowds or magnificent singers. Glory to Jesus when we act with our faith. When the integrity of our character, our attitudes shout to the world that do not accept it to be what they want that we do. Each time you reject the lies, the adultery, the falsehood and selfishness, we give the opportunity for people speak about us as children of God and thus give glory to God where we are at home, at work in school, on the street. ..... where we are, we are the Lord! then.. waht the people have spoken about you?

Look therefore carefully how ye walk, not as unwise, but as wise; Ephesians 5:15

The Very Peace

For they that are after the flesh mind the things of the flesh; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit, For the mind of the flesh is death; but the mind of the Spirit is life and peace... Romans 8:5,6

Too many people desire the peace.

They seek in difents places,in all kinds of faith, beliefs, social actions... I concord with this actions. This things are good and essentials for all peoples BUT, none of these can bring the real peace, the unconditional peace, endless peace... eternal peace.

Very peace only can brought through Jesus. Through obedience for the God's Words through Holy Spirit.Then abandone sinful nature, lie, sexual immorality, debauchery, jealousy, be careful with adultery 'cause only desire or think about another person become adultery (Mathew 5:28), angry and the like, then you will find the real peace.

Shout to the Lord and fall down in Your love's arms.

Jesus want give us peace
