In Romans 3:23, “For everyone has sinned, we all fall short of God’s glorious standard. NLT” Obviously, no exemption, we ALL fall short... everyone have sinned. Jesus is perfect! He came to save and rescue the lost, that's us. We are sinners and we aren't perfect.  We commit mistakes, we make bad decisions, we lie, we cheat, we do things that are not pleasant in God's eyes but no matter what, God loves each one of us. He loves us unconditionally. Because of His great love towards us, He gave His only begotten son that whoever believes in the son will have eternal life (John 3:16). Jesus paid the price in the cross of Calvary. We are imperfect but Jesus shed His blood so we can be perfect. We can't do it on our own, only God can change us. He alone can change our hearts and our lives. So come before His presence, come as you are... and be changed by a PERFECT GOD.

When people are into so much trouble, they would say "LIFE IS UNFAIR". Somehow, I tend to say that before because I always felt as being left out in the family. 'Twas kinda hard to handle as I always feel like I don't belong. I've compared myself with my siblings in terms of height and appearance but when I grew up, my insight has been changed. It started when I got a good paying job... which then I become the breadwinner of the family.

There is no such thing as perfect people and so as people's promises. They might make it happen or don't mind it at all. That is very unlikely to God - for God is faithful and so as His promises. In Deuteronomy 31:6 says, "Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you may go. He will never leave you nor forsake you."

Prayer was the work and ministry was the prize, while he was praying earnestly, his sweat was like drops of blood falling to the ground. In Luke 11:1 – when Jesus had finished praying, one of his disciples asked him, “Lord teach us how to pray,” why did they did not asked “Lord teach us to preach” or Lord show us how to minister” because prayer is the vital ingredient in Jesus ministry.

Photo credit: www.bible-history.com Abraham was pleading with God to save Sodom and Gomorrah. That time, the sin of this place is grievous which makes the God of heaven angry before them. Abraham bargained with God, “if there be 50 righteous people found in Sodom, will you destroy the place?” and then 40 then 30, then 20, then 10. God will spare the city of Sodom for the sake of 10 righteous people. But God has not seen righteous people except Lot and his wife and 2 daughters. The problem with Sodom is, it is extremely a bad city. Sexual violence is rampant. The people of Sodom according to Ezekiel 16 are arrogant and unconcerned, who does not care for the poor and needy.

Material or financial blessing, are also considered as blessing. But there is more important of all kinds of blessing, and that is spiritual blessing. Nehemiah 2:20 says “The God of heaven is the one who will grant us success?” Be humble – James 4:6 - God gives grace to the humble “He that exalts himself shall be humble but he that humble himself shall be exalted”. Humble yourself therefore under the mighty hand of God for he will exalt you in due time.

First and foremost, to be an eagle, you must be born an eagle. In other words, to be a Christian, you must be born a Christian, you need to be born again which means there must be newness in life or newness in character. Secondly, eagle loves storms. For eagles, storms are beneficial. One reason is, it will cause the eagle to fly higher and faster. So, for Christians, storms or trials will cause you to move to a higher level. Trials will give you perseverance and patience. The other reason is, storms will allow the eagle to use less effort. The stronger the storms, the lesser the strength exerts the eagles. Trials will allow Christians to depend on God and not to depend on its own strength.

A jail warden asks Paul and Silas “Sirs, what must I do to be saved”? Most of the people today have a big question in their minds. “Am I going to heaven or am I going to hell?” When I die, where should I go? Or is there such a place called heaven. Simply because they do not know the answer. Paul and Silas answered the prison keeper “believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and thou shall be saved...” to man this is impossible but with God all things are possible. They are not saved because they do not believe.
