Personal Story Of The Day

We Have A Stronger Constitution

The Declaration of Independence of the most successful nation in the world: the United States... speaks of all people being created equal  and that they are endowed with certain permanent rights. The Constitution guarantees that the government will protect those rights for all its citizens. These two documents clearly reveal that the nation's freedom depends largely on a strong constitution. 

The Bible is also a bill of rights and contains far more freedoms than either of these documents. It originated with God, who backs it with His justice, His concern for all people, and His unlimited power. And it is the only charter that guarantees freedom from sin's penalty and power. Peter said that Christians, as a holy nation (the offspring of God), are to proclaim the praises of Him who called us out of darkness into His marvellous light (1Peter 2:9). 

In this process we call salvation... being born again through the indwelling Spirit of God, we find true freedom. When we live by this gospel constitution, we will be able to enjoy our rights and fulfil our calling. A Spirit led life will always triumph over death!

Jokes Of The Day

Ridiculous but True

Admitting his 0-4 record is not impressive "on paper," trainers announced that Lucky, a German shepherd guide dog for the blind in Wuppertal, Germany, is available for his fifth owner. Lucky led his first owner in front of a bus, killing him. Then he led the second off the end of a pier, drowning him. He nudged his third owner off a railway platform in front of an express train, killing him. And he walked his fourth owner into heavy traffic, abandoning him to be hit and killed. The new owner won't be told of Lucky's record -- the trainers say the dog might sense nervousness "and do something silly."

Men Can Never Win


If you work too hard, you're not spending enough time with her. If you don't work hard enough, you're a good-for-nothing bum.

If she has a boring repetitive job with low pay, it's exploitation. If you have a boring repetitive job with low pay, you should get off your butt and find something better.

If you get a promotion ahead of her, it's favoritism. If she gets a job ahead of you, it's equal opportunity.

If you mention how nice she looks, it's sexual harassment. If you keep quiet, it's male indifference.

If you cry, you're a wimp. If you don't, you're insensitive.

If you make a decision without consulting her, you're a chauvinist. If she makes a decision without consulting you, she's a liberated woman.

If you ask her to do something she doesn't enjoy, that's domination. If she asks you, it's a favor.

If you try to keep yourself in shape, you're vain. If you don't, you're a slob.

If you buy her flowers, you're after something. If you don't, you're not thoughtful.

If you're proud of your achievements, you're an egotist. If you're not, you're not ambitious.

Mobiles VS. THE BIBLE

I wonder what would happen if we treated our Bible like we treat our mobiles?

-What if we carried it around in our handbags or pockets?

-What if we turned back to go get it if we forgot it?

-What if we flipped through it several times a day?

-What if we used it to receive messages from the text?

-What if we treated it like we couldn't live without it?

-What if we gave it to kids as gifts?

-What if we used it as we travelled?

-What if we bought new ones, just to be proud of what it looked like?

-What if we used it in case of an emergency?

-What if we got it out to show off to someone our skill in knowing how to use it?

-What if we groaned when we dropped it?

-What if we always had it close for easy access?

This is something to make you go ..hmm... where is my Bible?

Oh, and one more thing....

Unlike our mobiles, we don't ever have to worry about our Bible
being disconnected, because Jesus already paid the bill!

Devotional Thoughts Of The Day

Effective Prayers And Praises

Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready. Revelation 19:7. References from Revelation 19:1-10.

Paul may plant and Apollos water, but it is God who gives the increase, and this increase can be attained by faithful prayer, whether offered in China or England, Australia or Africa. If this be so, then Christians at home can do as much for overseas assemblies as those actually on the spot. I believe it will only be known on the last day how much has been accomplished in outreach work, by the prayers of earnest believers at home. 

On that day, believers will celebrate at the Wedding Supper of the Lamb, and there will be people there from every language and tribe and nation shouting, Hallelujah! Did you know the Hallelujahs in today's verses are the only four recorded in the entire New Testament? Derived from Hebrew, the term simply means 'Praise the Lord'... and it means the same in every language around the world. 

It's a very good word to speak for those who are praying to receive the holy Spirit. It's also found in the Psalms, especially Psalms 113 through 118. These are often referred to as the Hallel Psalms... being the most likely ones that Jesus and His disciples sang after the Last Supper. 

How fitting that Hallelujahs will ring out again at His Wedding Supper! In these Hallelujahs, a great multitude glorified God for His just and sovereign judgments, particularly His judgment in the previous chapter on Babylon for its wickedness, idolatry, and persecution of God's people. With this great evil destroyed, it will be time to celebrate! People are now free to enjoy the purposes of the original creation, in the presence of God, without the corruptions of man-made religion.


I Hate Complaining

And Moses said, This shall be, when the LORD shall give you in the evening flesh to eat, and in the morning bread to the full; for that the LORD heareth your murmurings which ye murmur against him: and what are we? your murmurings are not against us, but against the LORD. Exodus 16:8. 

Certain expressions in the English language raise doubts in our minds, such as: "Your cheque is in the mail," from a debtor; "This shouldn't cost much," from your mechanic; or "This won't hurt," from your dentist. Another such expression we often hear is, "I hate to complain." How often have you heard someone say, "I hate to complain, but..." and then launch into a lengthy tale of how, in some fashion, you've fallen short of their expectations? 

Moses and Aaron heard it a lot. At least on three occasions (at Marah, Ex 15:24; in the Wilderness of Sin, Ex 16:2; and at Rephidim, Ex17:3), the people complained about the hardships encountered on their journey. In fact, at Rephidim, Moses told God, "The people are ready to stone me!" (17:4). The truth is, most of us don't mind complaining at all. Yet we need to remember that when we complain, ultimately the person we're finding fault with is God. 

He is sovereign, so everything that comes into our lives must first meet His scrutiny. When we complain, we are telling God, "You've made a mistake. You shouldn't have allowed this to happen to me." But God is too wise to make a mistake and too loving to allow unnecessary heartache. When you are next tempted to complain, remember that you have a sovereign God who loves you. All that you experience is to shape and mould you into the best person you can be. Instead of complaining, call upon God... in fact, count it all joy (Jam 1:2).
