The gospel of Power

" THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS HIS WILL AND DOMINION HERE ON EARTH "

For our gospel came not unto you in word only, but also in power and in the Holy Spirit and in much assurance , as you know what we were among you for your sake . 1 Thessalonians 1:5 RVR 1960

When the disciples asked Jesus how they should pray? Jesus answered them with what we call today the model or example of prayer, in Matthew 6:10 Jesus said “your kingdom come,
your will be done, on earth as it is in heaveny”.  The Kingdom of God come to earth to His children. And what is the Kingdom of God on earth? Is the manifestation of its power and glory through His people (those who choose to believe in Jesus as their savior).
A Kingdom is the sovereignty, influence and dominium of a man over a nation.  The same way, the Kingdom of God is the influence dominium and sovereignty of God over his creation, to show his glory and power. When you accepted Jesus as your savior, you become part of an eternal kingdom where God reigns, lovingly governs our lives and reign over us.
The gospel that Jesus came preaching was the gospel or good news of the kingdom of God. Jesus said, “But if I by the Spirit of God cast out demons, then you have come to the kingdom of God" Matthew 12:28. Miracles, deliverances from demons are the manifestation of the glory of the Kingdom of God on earth through Jesus Christ.
When we preach the gospel of the Kingdom Jesus, the miracles are the signs that follow us.  The miracles are the visible demonstration of the Kingdom of God on earth. Jesus said that the signs will follow those who go and preach the gospel of the Kingdom Mark 1616:18.
Today  not many Christians believe in the supernatural manifestation of God's power , they leave in the part of just words , but the Kingdom of God is not only in words but  power, 1 Corinthians 4:20 . This means that if you're part of the Kingdom of God, in your house , your job, your school, your church , wherever the Kingdom of God’s goes with you the  power and  glory have to be  manifest , when you pray for the  sick,  they have  to get  healed , free people  from the torment of the disease. To make changes in our family and where a child of God’s entering the glory of God will manifest.
The kingdom of darkness rules with fear, disease, torture, poverty, strife, sin, destruction. These things are manifest in the atmosphere of the kingdom of Satan when a person has not come to Jesus. But when a person comes to Christ and become   part of the Kingdom of Light, these things no longer has legal part in the Kingdom of God. When a man or woman with the Holy Spirit preaches the Kingdom of God, the kingdom of darkness flees. DISEASES, SIN, DEMONS, POVERTY, DEATH, INJUSTICE, they will flee when   the weight of the glory of God manifest in His people.
So when Jesus said to come to us the kingdom of God, is to become free of the kingdom evil of and darkness. When we   walking the supernatural of God, God's supernatural becomes natural for us, to see manifested the glory of God in everything that we do for His Kingdom. 
 It is the Father’s good pleasure to give us the Kingdom amen! ! Fear not, little flock, for your Father's good pleasure to give you the Kingdom. Luke 12:32. In Jesus we have the ability and power to go preach the gospel of power and the glory of God to be revealed to everyone.
Today  the time has come  when God is just waiting for you to believe in His   power of his Kingdom by the Holy Spirit in your life . It's time to rise up to believe that the gospel is more than words; it is the power of God. The Kingdom of God is Righteousness, Peace and Joy.
Jesus came to preach the Gospel of Power, which make the Kingdom of God to expand in manifestations of the glory of God on earth , so that His name be gloried amen !

Today ! today ! is the day that God raised you to preach to the lost so they may  come and be part of the Kingdom of God, and thru you God shows His glory and power.

 

God Bless you!!!

the process of the pearl

Which woman does not like pearls?  Whether worn in a necklace, rings, an earrings or bracelet. Pearls are one of the most desirable stones by women and admired by all. But before the final result is obtain, the pearl must go through a long process of waiting and preparation.


Pearls are formed inside a mollusk (oyster). For a pearl to be formed inside the oyster, a foreign body must enter the nucleus of the oyster.  A foreign body could be a parasite, a worm, or even sometimes a piercing attack that damages a body shell of the oyster. Whether the pearl is naturally occurring (without human intervention) or culture is required that a foreign body penetrating the oyster. After this body or foreign agent enters the oyster, the mollusk forms a sac called "pearl sac" that is formed to protect the oyster from the agent that has invaded the oyster. For the emergence of a pearl from this sac it requires 4 or more years and that the oyster either from fresh or salt water stay in their natural habitat. After this long process, the result is an unpolished pearl. The next step is to wash and polish the pearl until obtain a bright and beauty pearl. After the painful process the peal is ready to be display and show the beauty and value of it.




After reading all this, it came to me one though, you and I are pearls in the hands of God, and we must know that we go to a similar process in our life.


1. A foreign agent at our core. This agent can be a illness, an economy situation, negative situations in our families. Remember that this agent may be a worm, a parasite or an attack of a body piercer, and come into our lives unexpected to attack us, creating in us   discouragement. Remember that God is in control of our lives and everything that happens to us is part of a process from God, to extract from us the man and woman inside us, that we only meet when we are out of our comfort and affected by some adversity. All that happens around us work in our favor when we understand the process and the plan of God in our lives to bring us to the place He has for us.

a. Romans 8:28 "And we know that those who love God all things work together for good, that is, who according to his purpose"


b. 1 Corintios3: 13 "the work of each will be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because the fire will be revealed, and the work of each man is, the fire shall try."

2. The waiting time. The shell keeps the pearl sac at least 4 years, and even more, all the time the oyster is in its natural habitat. In this stage is when it seems like there is no exist to the problem and that you never will come out of the situation. The waiting period is where we are struggling looking for solutions to problems. But at this stage is where we learn to talk to God and depend on Him. This dependence grows by the intimate relationship that you have with God every day. It is through in this process when the weak become strong, where faith grows and learns to walk not by sight. When you take the word of God and do decrees in your favor. Here you see God in the midst of difficulties shows His power and glory and blessing. Just as he blessed the people of Israel in the process of the desert with manna, water, shade by day, columns of fire by night.  God gives you His provision s in the process of waiting.  This makes your faith grow more and more every day.


3. Washing and polishing. In this step the oyster is removed from its natural environment to be washed and polished to full brightness. In this stage God moves you from your comfort, place, and position.  This disturbs in your life make you uncomfortable and will polished your personality, to bring the new you out. As Remember, The Father, the Creator God know who you are and.  So God must wash and polish you through uncomfortable situation that you have to face. And what is left after this stage is you free of disturbance and impurity and the brightness of God shine on us. God took you out from natural place to make men and women developed at the level that God wanted. God took Moses to the desert palace for 40 years, Abraham had to leave his family, Jacob fled from his home, Joseph was sold by his brothers after a long process to become the governor of Egypt, Queen Esther, taken from her family environment and taken to the palace of the king.  Became a queen that later saved her people. The same way God made you and me today, go through difficult situation making us uncomfortable so we can become brave men and women man to become  excellence administrator of His Kingdom here on earth.




4. The final process. In the final process the pearl become the jewelry that will make a necklace, bracelet, ring, earrings,  The same ways God takes you in his hands and gives you the final shape, courageous thinking with a mind  as a citizen of God kingdom.  You will shine with the light of God. God as a father will be proud of you, because He knows that He can count on you. Living close to God and reading His words, that will make you understand  God's plans for you are the best for you. the process was long and strong but worth it.” As I said unto the people of Israel through the prophet Jeremiah” 29:





10 for thus saith the Lord: When in Babylon seventy years are fulfilled, I will visit you, and wake up to you my promise to bring you back to this place.
11 For I know the plans I have for you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you an expected end.
12 And call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen;
13 and you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart.
14 And I will be found by you, says the Lord, and bring back your captivity, and gather you from all nations and of all places whither I have driven you, saith the Lord: and I will get back to where I sent you into



We have the best example Jesus, He went through His process so that today you and have salvation, redemption, eternal life through His blood. And today Jesus is seated next to the Father.

1 Peter 2:4 Draw near to him, the living stone rejected by men but to God is a cornerstone chosen and precious "

Today you  may not understand,  but God is in control put your eyes on Jesus, let His  hands  take you through the process. And remember that everything we can through Christ who strengthens us love.

Thanks

Jesus touch bring dead to live

Luke 7:11-17
Tell us the story of a woman in the city of Nain, a widow with one son who had died. Jesus was accompanied by his disciple’s going to Nain, when he came to the door of the city; he saw a coffin with the body of the widow's only son. Jesus saw this, felt he compassion of her and raised from the dead the young man.
Perhaps they will say Jesus was and God had the power to do this. Jesus did it because he had compassion of the pain of this woman who was all alone. In this case, no one was running to Jesus to say "oh Jesus we need you” but passing through that city he saw the need and acted on behalf of the widow. You've seen the situation where you go through a situation and before cry out to God, He is acting on your behalf?  Meditate on    this. We have a God who loves us and always ensures his creation and even more for His children. Let’s see what Jesus did to resurrect this young man:
1. Jesus had compassion. He knows what we go through and what we need
2. Jesus touched the coffin. Jesus touches your situation, even though if is all ready dead and He gives life to it.
3. Jesus spoke. Jesus spoke to him and ordered the young man to rise up from the dead. That power He has given to us to make declarations according to the word of faith. When we speak of faith for a better situation for illness, money problems, family, doing the decree make God hear and touch to transform the situations in your life.
4. Jesus gave the boy to the mother alive. open your hands in faith, that Jesus will deliver the answer that you are  waiting for. What you think that is  lost and without solution, Jesus will hand it over to you  alive in your hands. He is great and powerful, loves us and has compassion of us.

We walk not by sight but by faith, Jesus is our faith, He knows what we go through and touch the situation to transform the needs in abundance, illness in a good health, the poverty in wealth, the war in peace. The touch of Jesus transforms.  THE TOUCH OF JESUS MAKE THE DEAD COME TO LIVE
Jesus is life
John 11, 1-40:

"A man named Lazarus was ill ... Martha said to Jesus, "Lord, if you had been here, my brother had not died" ... Jesus said: "I am the resurrection and the life. He that believeth in me, though he die, shall live and whoever lives and believes in me shall never die" ... The dead came from the grave. "

RENDIRME?

Rendirme?

Aveces desearía

Huir y dejar todo atrás
Cerrar los ojos, dormir
Y no despertar.
Desangrar mi alma
Que drene por las venas
De mis palabras
Borrar todo negro panorama
Pintar de colores
Con mis manos la vida
Caminar por encimas
De la situaciones
Dominarlas sin tocarlas
Ignorar la necrosis
Espiritual.
Sentir fuerza en la esperanza
De lo que será,
¿Se muere la fe sino se riega?
¿Se muere le tiempo sino se usa?
El esperar con positivamente
Hace la diferencia de obtener
Lo que deseamos?
Que será mejor,
Vivir llorando
O morir riendo?
Las respuestas pueden ser diferentes
Según la mente
Que la pondere.
Trato de ver todo
Con optimismo
Aunque mis pensamientos
No sea los mismos.
¿Va de la mano el amor
Y la amistad
O solamente se usa el amor
Para sacarle provecho
A la sinceridad?
A veces desearía huir
Dejar todo atrás
Pero es más fuerte
El llamado de Dios
En mí, que el deseo de huir.

Freedom from tyranny of the urgent

by: Charles E. Hummel

Most of the time people are always asking themselves how to manage all the things that they need to do in the day with so little time. In the book Freedom from Tyranny of the urgent, Charles Hummel explains how it could be possible to manage all the things that need to be done in the day and not to life under a call of urgent. One of the things that is very important to know, is that urgent it does not mean important.  Hummel(1997) stated on his book about the different between the important and the urgent,  “Important is gauged by contribution to our high priority goals. Tasks that are not urgent require initiative and perseverance. Since frequently there is since pressure for them to be done today, this week or even these months, these activities must be motivated by our commitment to their ultimate value”  “ Urgent calls for the immediate. Urgent matters come into our life demanding action.” (p. 27) It means that important things could be plans and can be done in days or hours or months, but urgent need to be done in the moment, there’s no time to waste. Most of the time people live under the calls of urgent because they do not plan what they will do in the day.  To make a list of what to do in the day and even make a list for the whole week, will help to accomplish all the goals on time and not to be in a hurry of the urgent.  According to Hummel it could be possible to manage all it need to be done in a day or in life but there is some principal that need to be done for that.

1.    To be wise on how we manage our time, the script says “¹⁵ See then that you walk circumspectly, not as fools but as wise, ¹⁶ redeeming the time, because the days are evil” Ephesians 5:15-16 (NKJV).  Waste time on things that are not important, take time on the important things that need to be done. Jesus was here on earth and on three years He work on His ministry, healing, releasing people from demos attack, but He did all that because He did no waster time.

2.    Seeking the Kingdom of God first. When there is a lot to do, but so littler time. The first things that need to be done and to come to God for direction. Before the day start it is always good to give God the first hour of the day like that God will give the direction to follow on the day and accomplish all the goals for the day. The script says on Matthew 6:33 “³³ but seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you” (NKJV).

3.    Be redirected by the Holy Spirit. To seek first for  the kingdom of God, will make the Holy Spirit come and guide all the steps that are need to be done to reach long period goals or short terms goals. When there is no guidance of the Holy Spirit, the results is to become slaves of time, of circumstances. Ending having no time and falling in the call of the urgent. But the Holy Spirit was given by God as a companion to guide and give directing in live. The Script says on Roman 8:14-16 “¹⁴ for as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God. ¹⁵ For you did not receive the spirit of bondage again to fear, but you received the Spirit of adoption by whom we cry out, “Abba, Father.” ¹⁶ The Spirit Himself bears witness with our spirit that we are children of God” (NKJV).

Is an everyday life style for most of the people, to do everything in a urgent call. But to obtain freedom form the tyranny of urgent, first is very important to know the different between the urgent and the important. To do a list of thing that needs to be done in the day or in long terms. That God is the one that need to have the first hour of our day so His Holy Spirit could be a guide and make us free from the tyranny of urgent.

As this is learn it is possible to have time to reach goals and also to have time to just be relaxed and enjoy the day.

Only the men who deserve a woman will obtain a woman

 
By:
Luis Fernando Verissimo, Brazilian writer (Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul, September 26, 1936)

The disrespect for nature has affected the survival of various beings, and among the most threatened is the female from human species.I have just one copy at home, I have with much zeal and dedication, but I really think that is her is who  keeps me going.Therefore, as a matter of self-survival, I launched the campaign "Save the women."Take from here my little knowledge on the physiology of femininity, in order that we may preserve the rare and precious specimens that remain:1. Habitat:
The woman can not live in captivity. If you are caged, flee or die inside. No chains that bind and which are subjected to the cage lose their DNA. You never have the possession of a woman, what will bind to you is a fine line that needs to be reinforced daily.2. Eating right:
No one lives on the breeze. Women love attention. Give in abundance. It's up man, and if she does not get it from you, she will look for it from some else. Morning kisses and "I love you" to keep them beautiful breakfast and fragrant all day. A hug is like water daily for ferns. Do not leave dehydrated. At least once a month is necessary, if not mandatory, serve a special dish.




 
3. Flowers
They are also part of the menu. Woman who receives flowers wilt rapidly and acquires masculine traits as the rough and harsh treatment.4. Respect nature:
Do not support the TPM (pre-menstrual tension)? Marry a man. Menstruating women, cry for anything, like to talk about how they did in the day, to discuss the relationship. If you want to live with a woman, be prepared for that.5. Do not restrict your vanity:
It is of the woman hydrate fuses, nail polish, lipstick lie, be a day in the beauty parlor, collecting earrings, purchased many shoes, spending hours selecting clothes in a mall. Understand this and be supportive.6. The female brain is not a myth
By insecurity, most men prefer not to believe in the existence of the female brain. Therefore, seek those who pretend not to have it (and some really retired). Then, hold: female brain is not woman, but a simple decorative object. If you are tired of collecting figurines, try to relate to a woman.Some will show more gray matter with you. Do not run away, learn and grow with them. And do not worry, unlike what happens with men, intelligence does not work as a repellent for women.7. Do not shadow on her ...
If you want to be a great man has a woman at his side, never back. Thus, when it shines, you tan. However, if she's back, you will kick your ass.8. Accept:
Women also have their own light and does not depend on us to shine. The wise man feeds his partner potentials and use them to motivate themselves. He knows that preserving and cultivating the woman, he is saving himself.
