”But even if He does not.”Daniel 3:17, 18

”If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the God we serve is able to save us from it, and He will rescue us from your hand, O King. But even if He does not...” This last statement is not a doubt but a confidence in God‘s will, an absolute surrender to God‘s plan and purpose, a desire to see the glory of God revealed. Are we totally convinced that our God is sovereign? Does our faith resist the fire? There is a war out there that every genuine Christian must fight. Do we have an “ but even if He does not “moment in our lives when we’ll go through the burning fiery furnace? If our business is not going well and will go bankrupt, if we struggle financially, if we are sick or get old, if someone dear to our heart dies, or if you are still single for so long, if our plans are not accomplished, if our ministries don’t have the results that we expect, if we don’t get promoted, or we don’t pass the exam, or we don’t get the position, or we don’t get accepted in the college that we dreamed about it,or we cannot have children after many years, or... It is possible that we will not understand God‘s purpose for our lives, especially when He is not giving us any explanations. But in John 13:7 Jesus said, “you do not realize ”NOW “ what I am doing, but later you will understand.” Have confidence in God. Trust Him even if you don’t understand Him. He loves you. He cares for you. He always has a purpose in everything that He allows in your life. He always gets the glory. He you will make away where it seems to be no way. Trust Him with all your heart and you’ll never be disappointed on God. Rom8:28” We know that “ALL THINGS...” Do you know ? Do you believe the promises of God? Do you trust them?

Shall I pray to chance

“Shall I pray to chance?” Ephesians 6:18” And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. “ A certain woman was crossing the Atlantic and asked a sailor one morning how long it should take them to arrive. “If it is God’s will, we will arrive in Liverpool in 14 days,” said the sailor. “If it is God’s will !” said the woman;” what a senseless expression ! Don’t you know that all comes by chance? “ In a few days a terrible storm arose and the woman stood clinging to her cabin door in agony.” How long do you think it will last?” she asked the sailor.” It seems likely to last some time, madam.”” Oh ! “ she cried, “Pray that we may not be lost !” His reply was, “Madam, shall I pray to chance? “ Oftentimes, it takes pain or trouble to get us to really pray. This is the very reason God allows us to experience difficult times; to bring us to the place where we are reminded of our great need for Him. So when God allows pain in our lives, let us not delay i

How do you start your morning

How do you start your mornings? Psalm 5:3 "My voice shalt Thou  hear in the morning, or Lord ; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto Thee, and will look up. " Christianity is a love relationship. You cannot love someone that you do not know, and you cannot know someone that you don't spend quality time with. To know Jesus is to love Him. To love Him is to trust Him. To trust Him is to obey Him. To obey Him is to be blessed. It begins with a daily, quality communication with the Lord. Why is it best to spend time with the Lord in  the morning? Because you are getting ready to go on a road trip through life. You don't take the trip and then read the map, do you? How are you starting your mornings? With a cup of coffee, the paper, the news on TV ? Or with a pure milk of the Word and the light of His presence? Do you look up every morning or you look down to the things of this world ? You must start the day right. Start with God every morning for 30 days

What character do you have?

What kind of character do you have? Job 27:6 “ My righteousness I hold fast, and will not let it go; my heart shall not reproach me as long as I live.” I read a story of a pastor who boarded a bus one morning, paid his  fare, and took his seat. A few minutes later, he realized that the driver had given him too much change. Some people might have put it in their pocket and said, “Lord, thank you for your provision.” But this pastor knew that would be wrong. At the next stop, he walked to the front of the bus with the extra change and said  to the driver, “Excuse me, sir, you gave me too much change, and I wanted to return it to you because obviously you made a mistake.”The driver said, “Pastor, I didn’t make a mistake. I was at your church last night and heard you preach on honesty. I wanted to see if you practice what you preached “ Fortunately, he did. People are watching you as a Christian, virtually scrutinizing your every move. You should know they aren’t hoping you will be a
