How my encounter with JESUS changed me



Earlier, while I am in the middle of writing my article for this blog, my eyes started to roll up again. This eye roll up is the side effect of the medications I take for my schizophrenia. While my eyes were rolling up, JESUS spoke to me. He revealed to me that it is Him our One and only True God, the LORD. I almost cannot believe it that the LORD, the Most High God would reveal Himself and talk to me. But He did.

During our conversation, He told me that us, His sons and daughters are always on His mind and that He loves us so much. He said that He is always concerned about our health and well-being. Then He told me that I should never try to think of giving up my life because we are all precious in His sight. He added that all life on earth belongs to Him and we have no right to end our own life or take others' life.

 As he spoke, He used simple English terms that I can understand. With that, I realized that I don’t need to use highfalutin words to impress everybody because JESUS himself speaks plainly. I felt a deep sense of peace as I realize that JESUS is an easy-to-talk-with GOD. He also added that He can feel all my pains and suffering. And, all I have to do is pray and hold on to His promise that He will never leave us as orphans, He will come to us and comfort us (John 14:18). It is very true. He came to me and comforted me.

He comforted me and healed me right after I prayed. His presence is soothing, calm and gentle. I felt His loving presence calming my spirit down. I felt harmony and love in His presence. He told me that He is happy with me making Him publicly known through this blog.

With our encounter, I realized that I don't need to pretend because our Great loving GOD, JESUS is always concerned about our well-being and salvation (1 Timothy 2:4). With His kindness, simplicity, and love I have developed confidence in Him and I felt I became kind because there is a kind and good GOD who cares for me and loves me so much. I also felt my faith and trust in Him has increased. I felt a life full of meaning and purpose as well. Praise and glory are unto JESUS for loving me, healing me and helping me write this piece.

What GOD likes and dislikes

While I was listening to the song "You are Holy (Prince of Peace)" by Michael W. Smith last month, I came across with the lyrics that says "You're the great I am". Upon hearing it, I forgot that the LORD is the Great "I AM" (Exodus 3:14) and I started doubting. But the LORD reminded me that it's Him and that I should not doubt Him because He dislikes a doubtful servant. So, to help you increase your knowledge of Him and know how to love Him, let me tell you the things that He likes and dislikes. Listed below are the things He likes and dislikes. 8 Things GOD likes 1. He likes us. It is said in John 3:16 that GOD loves the world. It means He loves or like us because we are His creations. He gave us His own breath for us to live. 2. He likes a cheerful giver. It is written in second 2 Corinthians 9:7 that GOD loves a cheerful giver. Therefore we should freely give and share whatever we have to our brothers and sisters that are ...

How did JESUS become man

Hi there my dear reader! I am back. How are you? I hope all is well with you. As an effort resulting from my deep appreciation for JESUS, I'd like to share this article with you about His birth in Bethlehem 2,000 years ago. Please read on. In the Book of Isaiah 9:6, it was predicted that GOD will be born of a virgin to save the world from sin in the name of Immanuel or JESUS. Matthew 1:23-25 say this, "Look! The virgin will conceive a child! She will give birth to a son,and they will call him Immanuel, which means `God is with us.'" When Joseph woke up, he did as the angel of the Lord commanded and took Mary as his wife. But he did not have sexual relations with her until her son was born. And Joseph named JESUS." After 42 generations from Abraham to David and to Joseph (the husband of Mary), JESUS, the Messiah, our LORD was born in the person of Immanuel. His earthly mother named Mary was informed by angel Gabriel that she will give birth to a son named JESUS wh...

How to be happy the godly way?

Many of us try to seek happiness in our jobs, friends, family, lovers, hobbies, sex, money and material possessions. But all these don't guarantee a real and lasting happiness. Now, how do we define happiness? For me, happiness is loving JESUS and knowing that HE loves me so much that HE died on the cross just for me to be saved. It is also having the knowledge that HE walks with me every day and comforts me. It is having peace of mind and joy as I am being contented and satisfied with my present situation as well. Moreover, it is having a loving and faithful relationship with CHRIST. And, most of all it is being obedient to CHRIST. When you live an obedient life, JESUS will reveal Himself to you and accompany you. His constant presence will give you insurmountable joy. Here are four secrets to happiness that I learned through personal experience and practice: 1. Believe and Accept JESUS CHRIST as your Personal Lord and Savior. Invite JESUS to live in your heart.
