The Lord said:
"Mga anak, banalin ninyo ang mga sarili ninyo. Dadalawin Ko kayo. Isang uri ng pagdalaw na hindi nyo pa naranasan. At ang magiging bunga ng pagdalaw na 'yan ay mga kababalaghan, tanda't mga himalang hindi pa nakita ng bawat isa, ng bansang ito ang ng buong mundo."
We must be careful not to become like Martha, busy, exhausted, and consumed with many activities, while neglecting the most important thing.
We must be like Mary, sitting at the feet of Jesus, worshiping Him, and listening to His Word.
"My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me." (John 10:27)
Notice the order: first, they hear His voice; then, they follow Him.
“Beauty is not found in outward appearance, but in the Spirit of God.”
That is why when the Spirit of God dwells in you, there is a beauty that no human standard can produce.
The world's definition of beauty is very different from God's definition. The world looks at outward appearance. God looks at what is within.
There is only one definition of true beauty in the eyes of God:
“Christ in you, the hope of glory.”
True beauty is not merely how you look.
True beauty is Christ being manifested in you.
Being joyful is a choice.
Being sad is a choice.
Every day, you decide which one will have influence over your heart.
The circumstances around you may not always be favorable, but you can still choose how you will respond.
Today, the question is: What is your decision? Will you choose to live in the joy of the Lord, or will you allow sorrow to rule your heart?
The choice is yours.
Many were in the Upper Room.
Many were around Jesus.
Many followed Him.
But John the Beloved was different.
He stayed close.
In these last days, God is not just looking for a Church that serves Him publicly, but a Bride that longs to be with Him privately.
A generation that says:
“Lord, I don’t want people to see me.
I want them to see You.”
A love that is deeper than ministry, deeper than recognition, deeper than influence.
A love that simply wants Jesus.

Not education, not appearance, not expertise, not even good theology, though all these have value.
Above all, Jesus remains supreme.
The miracle in 2 Kings 4:1–7 stopped because the woman gathered only a few empty jars. She limited the blessing of God.
Yet God never intended His people to live with limitation.
When we understand that everything God places in our hands is meant for the salvation of souls and the fulfillment of His work, our giving changes. It goes beyond firstfruits, tithes, and offerings. It becomes a life fully surrendered to God.
God has already promised to return it, thirtyfold, sixtyfold, a hundredfold.
Only two things are required: 𝐁𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐞𝐯𝐞 𝐇𝐢𝐬 𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐝. 𝐎𝐛𝐞𝐲 𝐇𝐢𝐬 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐝.
In a world full of knowledge, true wisdom is this: 𝐝𝐞𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐨𝐧 𝐆𝐨𝐝.
Not your strength.
Not your understanding.
Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and He will direct your path.
What is the first step to becoming like the Lord?

When you live in this kind of fellowship with Him, His voice becomes clear, and He guides you in every step. Do not settle for your current spiritual condition. Do not limit God with your time. Choose to put Him first.
When we are truly connected to God, when our intimacy with Him is deep, no matter the course of the world, no matter what the devil does, our lives will reflect the Lord Jesus.
Because He is the vine, and we are the branches.
What He is, so are we.

Let us learn from the Lord Jesus Christ. He lived a life of prayer, spending entire days and even whole nights in fellowship with the Father. And after His time in prayer, that is where greater works were manifested, signs, wonders, and miracles.
So if we live in the Spirit, carrying the spirit of prayer, with unbroken fellowship with the Lord, we will see that miracles become normal. Not difficult, but the natural result of a life deeply connected to God.
Prayer is not separate from power, it is the source of it.
The cross was not defeat.
It was victory.
Akala ng impyerno tapos na pero doon pa lang nagsimula ang lahat.
Sin defeated.
Death conquered.
Jesus reigns.
And because He lives, you live in victory.
When He endured the wounds on His back (the lashes at the whipping post, the mocking and scorn, and the beatings by Pilate’s and Herod’s soldiers) it was a sign that He loves you so much.
God’s promise has not changed. If He said it, it will happen. So do not rush. Do not force. Stay in His timing. Because your victory is already secured, it is only a matter of time.
