Day 3- My heart is Happy

On By #hhhighIn Believe, devotion1 Comment

They all have been waiting – 120 of them, seeking and calling upon the name of the Lord. The coming of the Holy Spirit was so close- They expected an unexpected miracle to happen. But, suddenly, they saw all the elements; The fire and the thick smoke- they all needed this combination from heaven. They have seen Jesus after he resurrected from death several times- they thought we would see Jesus again in person! But God had another plan- The promised one was there- The Holy Spirit.

Day 3- My heart is happy /hh-high.com

Everyone’s heart got to fill with Joy unbelievably. It looked like all of 120 walking in heaven. They encountered an incredible experience as we read from the book of Acts chapter 2 verse seven; others when they saw it” they were all amazed at this “. not only that also” They were surprised, because, as the apostle was speaking, everyone heard in their own language.”

When the Holy Spirit comes into your lives – your heart fills with joy and happiness. You experience heaven on earth. The fire of the Holy Spirit changes you inside out. 

” The people were all amazed and confused. They asked each other, ” What is happening? “

Great things were happening; awesome things were happening; the great and glorious day of the Lord is here. Oh, How our heart is happy. We have the comforter, the peace and the loving Holy Spirit with us always.

” David said this about him: ‘ I saw the Lord before me always; he is at my right side to keep me safe. So my heart is happy, and the words I speak are words of joy. Yes, even my body will live with hope because you will not leave me in the place of death. You will not let the body of your holy one rot in the grave. You taught me how to live. You will come close to me and give me great joy.’ Psalm 16: 8-11 ” 

My dear friend, let your heart be glad, rejoice and celebrate as the holy one lives in you; the great things will happen for you; the awesome things are ahead. You are loved so much. So keep your heads held high always.

One Day

On By #hhhighIn Believe4 Comments

I recently started to read more books about the Holy Spirit. I bought a book by Reinhard Bonnke called ‘ Are We Flammable or Fireproof? ‘. I borrowed a book from our local library written by Rick Warren to company my devotion times. In my ups and downs walk in God, Still, I have zero knowledge of Him. I reached this point, that, I need more of God. I need more Bible verses to be injected into my veins. I need more Jesus-Words to change my perspective and give me a good sound-minding decision. As Bonnke said ” The power of the Holy Spirit does not come as a reward. ” God’s gifts are many, and the gift of the Holy Spirit is one of the special One.

Where would I be, when God calls me? Am I in waving circumstances of this life? Or busying myself with the things of this world? I learned that time with God is an essential walk in the spiritual journey, be emptied of this world – be filled with heaven’s Spirit. Returning to Him, Confession and obedience all are part of the journey again and again! God knows we are human. He knows we are not perfect! That is the reason He sent the Perfecter. He knows we can not walk and continue the journey of life without living water. That is the reason he made available the living water to us. 

The war, the injustice, the fight, the sin, the bad stuff – all It will vanish one day. One day He comes with His Throne. His chosen Ones will be with Him forever. His rich wisdom removes all the doubts. He makes it all white and shiny. One day you can see the Living-Water with your own eyes. Oh, How He loves us. One Day all our pains and sorrows will be replaced with His glorious presence, and space will be filled with the spring white flower.

Who said, we are not belonging to heaven?  Who said, we are not loved by Jesus? Who said, we are not Jesus lovers? 

We are God’s chosen people. In the weakest time, we boast and in the poorest time, we are rich. It does not matter how many doors closed. It does not matter if everything seems falling apart. It does not if we need this and that. It does not matter if this and that is late. It does not – All the matter is CHRIST. Who can changes us/things in the blink of eyes! What it matters is – to worship him, to near Him, Be with Him. Then our Souls will fly – Indeed freed. One Day we will touch this truth. One Day is coming.

The True Tree

On By #hhhighIn Believe, River2 Comments

wow, what a week! It was a really great and thankful week. I named it and i received many blessings. We had an awesome thanksgiving. How powerful God will move when you honor Him with your first fruit of your life. Grateful for everything in your life. Even if bad things stuff up your life but they are not allowed to ruin your life in Christ. Your hands are always raised to praise and your mouth to confess the goodness of his presence.

Anyway, After great night of thanksgiving , As you may know there is no official thanksgiving holiday here in Australia . But I was really moved by the Holy Spirit 3 days before thanksgiving to be thankful these days – from friends to family .. whatever we have. But my post won’t be about thanksgiving , I am sure you had a great blessing times with your family , had a little bit fun and laughter or may taste a bit of strange red wine.

God reminded me to John 15. I do not know why! Here we go. Saturday morning , need a bit time to my self. But God was pointing me to something. Before have a breakfast , I opened the Bible and I started to read John 15.

The First Verse began with ” I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman ” . Okay What God wants to remind me ! What he was talking about? As i read more and more and back again and more .. the Holy Spirit was whispering and i was picturing an image like below :

truevineHe said ” Found your self in picture , Where are you? “. I was hesitating to answer. Becasue if i sa i am branch he will say where is your fruit , if i say i am leaf again it would be same , for sure i couldn’t be the root .

Without answering the picture changed to this :

truevine“You are here” He said . Jesus is the tree and the root. Father is husbandman whom taking your fruit from the tree that you may bring more fruit for Him. If you stay with tree(Jesus) you will bring more fruit ( Holy Spirit ). Holy Spirit will teach you how to bring more fruit(love and patience ). Without Jesus you are lost.

Than quickly after than the picture changes to this :

truevineWithout Him , you can not do anything.

You shall be my disciple if you stay in my Love.

I believe God wants you too, stay in His love and bear much fruit for Him. You are His disciple when you have love to unlovable. When allowing God to work in your life. Allowing Him to have control every detail of every secret of your heart and let it deal with it. Do not allow a little deadly small secret eat you inside and stop you to bear more fruit for Him rather than go to Him and confess and open your heart to his presence , than He will be your good friend in all things you do. You are carrying God within you. Because you are the carrier of the good news and good fruit. May this end of year is the time of forgiveness or whatever is in your heart. Let God to clean it and Jesus to wash it and the Holy Spirit to sit in it. He has chosen you that you should go and bring fruit  and whatsoever you shall ask from Father , he may give it you.

Jesus says : ” These things have i spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be in full. ”

If this message spoke to your heart , why not sharing to your loves one!

Obey and take the land.

On By #hhhighIn River1 Comment

“ The Lord your God Himself will fight for you” these are the words Moses was saying to Israel.  In chapter 3 of Deuteronomy Moses pour out his heart and it was a long time to wait and see the promised land which God was told to Him. He was crying and saying to God  : “ Oh Sovereign Lord , you have begun to show to your servant your greatness and your strong hand ..” Moses saw the greatness of God , He saw how God awesomely rescued His people. And Here he is and trying to tell God , Oh Lord please let me go in the promised land.  He seems realised that God is not side of sin and not letting Him go into promised land but He appointed Joshua to go in.

Obedience is not a process of do something right rather do what is right in the eyes of God.  As I am reading Deuteronomy chapter 4 , these words was highlighted for me .

 

“..I am about to teach you, Follow them so that you may live and may go in and take possession of the land that the Lord, the God of your father is giving you. “ ( Deuteronomy 4 : 1)

God is about to teach you, He wants to give you a new thing that you have never experienced. Himself, teach you his law and decrees. What you need to do. Follow them carefully and that you may live. So then you may go in the land and take the possession.

God wants to give you a new land. If you only be obedient to Him. Only be careful and watch yourselves closely so learn and do what He says.  Moses said to people , Observe what the word of God says. And get the wisdom and understanding of it.

IMG_0552

Let the word of God build you up, every day , every moment. Let not fall down on your mouth . and let it be your eyes and feet every step you take. Declare it in your life and obey it. When you obey it , you are doer too. God will show you the land , this is you take the possession.

He is your God , You are His Child.  Obey your father.

So run for the prize that in Christ Jesus for you. You know , you will have troubles in this world. You know , But because He lives in You , you can face tomorrow . As you obeying Him everyday , As your chain are gone in Him . You are living in Heaven right now with Him until he is coming back soon.

Philippians 4 : 4

Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice.

Is anything in your life stopping to obey Him. Is anything in your life stopping to rejoice in Him. Put away all your worries and obey Him and take the land that God will show you.

The World IS NOT my Shepherd !

On By #hhhighIn RiverLeave a comment

I remember a season for the collecting mushrooms , me and my mum and brother and their friends went to collect the mushroom from a Jungle . We went early in the morning . Now I found my self into a huge trees and greens. I did not know the way I just followed them , suddenly in the middle of that huge trees I saw no one around me. I was lost! Because I did not follow the leaders.how do you feel those moment? looking for a way to get out? Sometimes, the world want to declare to you ‘ I am your shepherd ‘ But truly It is not.

Who is your shepherd? Who is in charge of your life and have a final word?

Today God will speak to you if you open your heart and let be HIM only your shepherd.

” The Lord is my shepherd  I shall not be in want ” Psalms 23.

We all know this verse , most of us memorise this verse and know the words perfectly. But as we are living in the world , the things around us affects our daily life and slowly slowly  we substituted this verse in this way :

‘ The World is my shepherd I have everything I need ‘. Is this true even? Yes it. we make our world have authority over our marriages , over our relationships , over our coming and going , literately we made ‘ the world’ our lord. But Who is your shepherd ? is your job? is your boss? is your money?

Image-1

Those are good questions to ask yourself. Everything you have is from him only.

“His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness.” ( 1 Peter 1 : 3 )

His divine power all you need. His Authority all you need. He him self is your shepherd. God is your shepherd when He is in charge you won’t be I need. You are in peace , Because ‘ the World is not your leader ‘. He meets everything you need . The things, the people , the idea , the men… are NOT your shepherd . God Himself is yours. He guides you , comfort you , strengthen you and you lack nothing.

The men disappoint you but God will never.

He is the Lord of your life and you have everything you need. Those are in under his leadership they may never be separated of His unending love.

The World is not my shepherd But the LORD is.

Depth of My heart.

On By #hhhighIn RiverLeave a comment

Do not allow the sinful world bring you down . With all beauty around This world also is full of pain and hurt , it is everywhere . Scripture says ” fix your thoughts on Jesus “.  Let Jesus fill you with His presence , Let him change you inside out . You are made in His image. You are made in His Love.

 

Today , if you hear his voice,

do not harden your hearts

as you did in the rebellion.

 

Hear , Holy spirit calling you. Keep listening . Keep Listening , Be still . You do not need a miracle to hear his voice . You need a thirsty heart . You need a keen-heart that shouting for a joy from above.

Today, Jesus , is ABLE turn around your circumstances , if you only have a  heart to hear.

If you only knew how much he loves  you. We all  disobeyed , We all forgotten what he has done for us. We all have been lost , in our own way.

Let not your situation put your heart away from God rather let it make you close to God’s heart then the heart of Jesus beating in you, then you hear his voice , then you know who he is. He is the builder of your house , He is the builder of everything . Do you believe it? If you only Trust in Him. If you only touch his garment.

Holy Spirit says

” Hear my voice , I am speaking over your life

open your heart

Do not let your heart goes astray ”

You will know my way . Jesus says ” I am willing ” , ” Be healed” , Our God is God of ‘willing ‘ . His goodness continues. Yes , He will prosper you, He will heal you , He will cleanse you , He will. Are you willing too ?   His arms are wide open. Just come and give your heart to Him.

Are you willing give you heart to God? Are you willing to change you? Are you ready. People disappoint you but never do that. You can trust in Him.

“When you pass through water

I will be with you

when you walk through fire

you will not be Burned ”

 

I Pray

” The hands of loving God taking care of you in anything. The arms of great God protecting you from any harm. The eyes of God watching over you. The feet of our awesome Father bless you and His ways be cleared to you. In Jesus ‘Name. Amen ”
