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.

Is JESUS our GOD?

Have you ever asked yourself who JESUS is? And, have you ever wondered if He is our GOD? If your answer is yes, then this article is for you. By the way, I used to believe that the LORD JESUS is just the Son of GOD and not GOD Himself. But, after attending some church services in a Christian Pentecostal church in college, I started to question who the real GOD is and what is His Name. Fortunately, last night that question was answered and revealed to me by the LORD JESUS. As I was reading an article about baby JESUS on the Bible app for kids which is called Superbook, I ran across a verse found in 1 Corinthians 12:3 which says tbis, "So I want you to know that no one speaking by the Spirit of God will curse JESUS, and no one can say JESUS is LORD, except by the HOLY SPIRIT." We can learn from this Bible verse that JESUS is our One and Only True Living GOD. And, no one can confess that He is GOD except when the person is guided by the Holy Spirit. On the other han...

What is JESUS’ will for us?

I spent my life looking for answers on what is JESUS’ will for me and what should I do with my life. I yearn for a happy, content and fulfilled life and I have this deep longing inside me for a better purpose. Until one night, while I was praying JESUS revealed to me His will. He told me that His will is to save us because He loves us so much. Check this verse in 1 Timothy 2:3-4 which say, “This is good and pleases God our Savior, who wants all people to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.” Since JESUS’ ultimate will is to save us, He wants us to receive His gift of salvation. We first have to believe that He died on the cross to save us from hell and sin. We should as well make a firm decision to turn away from sin and obey Him. Then we should establish a loving and faithful relationship with Him above others. Take note of this verse in Matthew 22:37-38 which say, “ And he said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with a...
