The Fear of the Lord

 Psalm 111:10 (NRSV)

"The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom; all those who practice it have a good understanding.His praise endures forever."

When we pay attention to who God is and submit our will to His, we will be reminded that God deserves all the glory.

This verse keeps my feet touching the ground. All that we have are from God. There comes a point in my life that I felt entitled of something which I should not be. Through this verse, I realized that in every victory, every blessing, and every good thing we must acknowledge God. We should always give the credit to God.

The more we fear the Lord and ackowledge Him, the more we see things according to His perspective. Also, we will learn and understand why various things are happening.

Lord, you are the Most High, teach me your ways and guide me throughout this life. In Jesus' Namen. Amen.

Isang Taon at Pagkakataon

VIDEO:  https://web.facebook.com/share/v/1JVCyWh1mU/              Sa isang taon na ako ay nakadestino sa Anda Central ay maraming ako natutunan. Ito rin ang ikalawang taon ko sa aking full-time ministry. Ang ACUMC ay isang matatag na simbahan. Dumaan man ito sa hiwalayan, nagpatuloy ito kahit baguhan ang mga nakaupong mga opisyal. Hindi ko masasabing ito ay perpektong simbahan, ngunit nakita ko ang pagnanais na lumago hindi lamang sa bilang ngunit ganoon din sa pananampalataya. Hindi man ito agad-agad, nauna man ang paglago sa bilang, ngunit nagtitiwala ako sa pangungusap at paglago na ibibigay ng Panginoon para sa mga miyembro. Ang panawagan lamang sa bawat isa ay ang pagkakaisa, pagbibigayan, tapat na pagsunod sa ating Diyos, pagpapakumbaba, paglilingkod, pagpapatawaran, at pagmamahalan.             Nakasama ko sa isang buong taon ang aking mga minamahal na kamanggagawa sa iglesia sina Pastor Augusto as ...

THE CONFESSION

     While I am reading a book title "Leadership That Builds" by Glenn Johnson, on its chapter title "A leader Must Have Integrity", I remember my life verse in Psalm 111:10 "The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom and all who follow His precepts have good understanding, to Him belongs eternal praise." The book explains that fearing God is trusting Him with confidence, but this may fail when you feel guilty at some point in your life.  The hindrance of our confidence in God is the feeling of guilt. In Nehemiah (Book in the Old Testament), which is the scriptural foundation of the said book, confession is Nehemiah's way on gaining confidence in God. He said in Nehemiah 1:6 " let your ear be attentive and your eyes open to hear the prayer of your servant that I now pray before you day and night for your servants, the Israelites, confessing the sins of the Israelites, which we have sinned against you. Both I and my family have sinned."  ...

MAGLIWANAG

  THEME: SHINE ON: CALLED TO BE THE LIGHT September 26, 2025   SCRIPTURE: Mateo 5:14-16 Magandang Balita Biblia 14 “Kayo ang ilaw ng sanlibutan. Ang isang lungsod na nakatayo sa ibabaw ng burol ay hindi maitatago. 15 Walang taong nagsisindi ng ilaw at pagkatapos ay inilalagay iyon sa ilalim ng banga. Sa halip, inilalagay iyon sa talagang patungan upang matanglawan ang lahat ng nasa bahay. 16 Gayundin naman, dapat ninyong paliwanagin ang inyong ilaw sa harap ng mga tao upang makita nila ang inyong mabubuting gawa at papurihan ang inyong Ama na nasa langit.”   INTRO: Kung mayroong gabi at araw, mayroon ding dilim at ____ liwanag.    Ang teksto natin sa oras na ito ay patungkol sa liwanag. Saan o kanina ba nagmumula ang liwanag, Sino ang liwanag, ano ang kahalagahan ng liwanag at bakit dapat na magliwanag?   I.
