Keledai Muda

Markus 11 : 2 – 3, “.. Pergilah ke kampung yang di depanmu itu. Pada waktu kamu masuk kesitu, kamu akan segera menemukan seekor keledai muda tertambat, yang belum pernah ditunggangi orang. Lepaskanlah keledai itu dan bawalah kemari. Dan jika ada orang mengatakan kepadamu : Mengapa kamu lakukan itu, jawablah : Tuhan memerlukannya.. “ Dari hal kerajaan sorga dalam Alkitab banyak dikisahkan dengan perumpaan, namun kali ini kita berbicara mengenai proses bagaimana Tuhan memakai anak-anak muda pada waktu akhir zaman.Sebagian besar orang tidak akan mengerti apa hubungan ayat ini dengan anak-anak muda, atau hubungannya dengan akhir zaman, atau bagaimana...

Friends Are Friends Foreverby: Michael W. Smith.Packing up the dreams God planted In the fertile soil of you I can't believe the hopes He's granted Means a chapter of your life is through But we'll keep you close as always It won't even seem you've gone 'Cause our hearts in big and small ways Will keep the love that keeps us strong And friends are friends forever If the Lord's the Lord of them And a friend will not say never 'Cause the welcome will not end Though it's hard to let you go In the Father's hands we know That a lifetime's not too long To live as friends And with the faith and love God's given Springing from the hope we know We will...

How to be a CAUSE for Thanksgiving‏

“When you produce much fruit, you are My true disciples.This brings great glory to My Father”(John 15:8)Did you know that one small act from you could CHANGE someone’s LIFE? When I was a teenager, hard-hearted toward God, a Christian told me he was praying for me and that God had a great plan for my life. I had thought God wanted nothing to do with me, and that man told me it couldn’t be further from the truth. That small seed of hope grew into a tree of faith that completely changed my life. I am so thankful to Mark Coffin for showing me Jesus’ love. When you show God’s love to someone, you are planting a seed in their life—and the potential...

Gift from God

source by email “Whoever has will be given more; whoever does not have, even what he has will be taken from him” (Mark 4:25) Have you ever thrown money away? Sometimes I see small coins lying around the house and want to throw them away, just for a cleaning quick-fix. However, I recently found out that it is illegal to permanently discard or destroy money! Did you know it’s illegal in God’s Kingdom too? But your currency isn’t paper bills or coins: it’s your gifts and abilities. Jesus told a story about three servants who were given different amounts of money by their master. The two with the most invested it and gained more, but the one with the least hid it in the ground out of fear. When the master returned, he congratulated and promoted the two profitable servants,...

The Greatest Gift You Can Give God‏

source by email Scripture : “You do not desire a sacrifice, or I would offer one. You do not want a burnt offering. The sacrifice you desire is a broken spirit. You will not reject a broken and repentant heart, O God” (Psalm 51:16,17)So : God has saved you from Hell, freed you from judgment for all your sins, given His wonderful Spirit to live inside of you, and is preparing a place for you in Heaven. This probably makes you want to say “Thank you!” However… What do you get for the person who has everything? If you’ve ever tried to find a gift for someone who already has it all, you know how hard it can be. Now what about for God? He said, “For all the animals of the forest are mine, and I own the cattle on a thousand hills” (Psalm 50:10). All the cattle on a thousand hills—that’s hard to...

Find Where You Belong‏

source by email“And now that you belong to Christ,you are the true children of Abraham. You are His heirs, and God's promise to Abraham belongs to you” (Galatians 3:29)Now that you believe in Jesus, where do you belong? Think about the difference between a sports fan and an actual player on the team. The fan gets to cheer from the sidelines, but a player gets to experience the game. He trains with the team, gets deep camaraderie, and feels the amazing joy of winning. When the first believers put their faith in Jesus, they formed an incredible community, much like a team: “All the believers devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching, and to fellowship, and to sharing in meals (including the Lord's Supper), and to prayer” (Acts 2:42). God has a place for you to belong on the team. He wants...

Take Up Your Mat and Walk

"For as high as the heavens are above the earth, so great is His love for those who fear Him, as far as the east is from the west, so far has He removed our transgressions from us" (Psalm 103:11-12)Have you ever had a friend say sorry to you over and over, even after you’ve already forgiven them? It’s insulting. In repeatedly apologizing, they’re saying, “I’m not sure if you’ve really forgiven me; I still feel guilty.” In essence, they’re doubting your word. Imagine how much more insulting it is to God! Psalm 103:12 says, “He has removed our sins as far from us as the east is from the west.” Just think how far the east is from the west. It’s basically infinity—the two can never meet. So, imagine for a moment, you and your sins bound together. Then God comes and separates the two of you, sending...

What Beats Cause and Effect?

source by email“But God showed His great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners” (Romans 5:8)They say “What comes around goes around.” That describes the law of Cause and Effect. The Bible says it another way: “A man reaps what he sows” (Galatians 6:7). What have you been sowing? Peace, love, and kindness—all of the time? If so, you’re in luck. But if not, what fate awaits you? This is a tricky one, for the biblical principle of sowing and reaping still stands. However, there is a higher lawForgiveness trumps Cause and Effect—every time. When Jesus was hanging on the cross—mid-crucifixion—He said to God on your...

What's your Worst-case Scenario?

source by email“Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank Him for all He has done. Then you will experience God's peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:6,7).Today I want you to think about the worst thing that could happen in your life. Is it sickness? Bankruptcy? Loneliness? Normally I like to talk about nice things, but I want to share with you how God has been helping me with my worry. You see, I worry a lot. And most of my worries never come true. But say the worst of the worst happened, whatever that is for you. There are a few things you can know will never be affected, no matter what goes wrong:God will still be glorified: “’As surely...

God Wants to Renew His Vows‏

source by email “’For the mountains may move and the hills disappear, but even then my faithful love for you will remain. My covenant of blessing will never be broken,’ says the LORD, who has mercy on you” (Isaiah 54:10).Have you ever seen a married couple renew their vows? It’s so beautiful. After years of hardships, things not going the way they thought, and weird traits they didn’t know about, they still say: I’d do it all over again. I’d marry you a million times over. That’s what God says to you today. He knows all the sins you’ve committed—and all the ones you’re going to commit. He knows all the things you didn’t do just how He wanted and how you will resent and misunderstand Him at times. And He still says to you: I love you today like I did yesterday. And I’d die for you all over...

If your House was Robbed Today...‏

“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith; and this is the gift of God, not by works, that no one should boast” (Ephesians 2:8,9)I want you to imagine that your house is being robbed, but you put your most valuable asset in a safe. What is that asset? It might be expensive jewelry, family photos, or the deed to your land. You can rest assured that even if you are robbed, your most valuable asset will stay safe. Think about it spiritually now. What is your most valuable spiritual asset? For a while, I had everything backwards. I thought my prayer life, Bible reading, and church attendance gave me my value as a Christian. But I thought very little about Jesus’ sacrifice for me and how He gave me righteousness I could never get otherwise. It was as if I was appraising my home and...
