Reasons why we need to have a good, loving, and faithful relationship with JESUS first

Sometimes, we tend to wander off from the faith and focus on the material things of this earth. Material things like money and food, we seek them first. But, JESUS said in Matthew 6:33 that we should seek Him first before anything else and He will give us what we need. We need to have a "good, loving, and faithful" relationship with Him first. What I mean with good, loving, and a faithful relationship is we communicate with Him constantly, obey His commands written in the Bible; and have the fear to commit sin knowing that when we sin, He will be hurt if we hurt Him, we lose our good relationship with Him. Listed below are the reasons why we need to to have a good relationship with JESUS first.

1.) He is our Creator. Isaiah 43:7 tells us that JESUS created all things for His glory. He created us so only Him knows exactly what's best for us. That is why we need to love Him communicate with Him constantly and thank Him for creating us in this wonderful planet so that His good and perfect will, will be done in our lives (Romans 12:2).

2.) He is our Provider. It is written in Psalm 81:10 that the LORD JESUS will provide for us. He will never leave us nor forsake us (Hebrew 13:5). So, we should trust in Him and believe that He is a good and loving GOD. He does not withhold anything good from those who fear and love Him (Psalm 84:11).

3.) He is our Joy-giver. It is found in John 15:11 that JESUS will give us His joy so that our joy may be complete. The joy of the LORD is our strength (Nehemiah 8:10).

4.) He is our Peace-giver. JESUS said this in John 14:27,Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.JESUS will give us His peace and peace is our greatest necessity; without it, we cannot live and function normally.

6.) He is our Comforter. Psalm 23:4 says that God's rod and staff will comfort us. The LORD is our Source of comfort. He is our Comforter. He said in Matthew 5:4 that, “Blessed are those who mourn for they shall be comforted.” He will comfort us in times of sorrow, that's for sure.

7.) He is our Guide. The LORD JESUS said in Psalm 32:8, “I will guide you along the best pathway for your life. I will advise you and watch over you.” If we love and obey JESUS, we have nothing to worry about because He will guide us in everything that we do.

5.) He is our Protector. The apostle Paul said this in 2 Thessalonians 3:3, But the Lord is faithful, and he will strengthen you and protect you from the evil one.Surely GOD will protect us against all harm that is why we need to obey Him and maintain a loving relationship with Him so that He will do what we ask like protection for our health, family, and faith.

8.) He is our Healer. The LORD JESUS in Jeremiah 30:17 promised us that He will restore us to health. He does not only heal our body but heals our soul as well. He takes away our guilt and shame and forgives us when we sin if we ask forgiveness.

9.) He is our Teacher and Adviser. GOD in JESUS CHRIST, when He walked on earth has been teaching us and advising us the real way to eternal life. He even promised us in James 1:5 that He will give us wisdom and faith if we work for it, like reading the Bible every day and night (Joshua 1:8).

10.) He is our Savior. It is written in Acts 20:28, that GOD has purchased us with His own blood. He died to save us from sin.

11.) He is the way, the truth, and the life. JESUS said in John 14:6 that He is the way, the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father except Him. There is no other way to everlasting life but JESUS. Let us all love and obey Him so that we will obtain life through Him.

12.) He loves us so much. It is written in John 3:16 that GOD loves us so much. He even died on the cross to save us from sin and death. We should just trust and believe that JESUS, our Great GOD, and SAVIOR loves us so much. He is a good and loving GOD (Nahum 1:7).

Now, my dearest reader, I advise you to seek JESUS, have a good, loving, and faithful relationship with Him first and obey His command that is to love Him and others so that He will provide you everything you need and protect you from all harm. With JESUS, we are all complete, lacking nothing. I love you with the love of JESUS. God bless.

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 ...

Best and the godly ways to move on from unrequited love that JESUS taught me

Oftentimes we fell in love with someone who does not love us back either because they are not interested in us or is already committed to someone else. This kind of situation is heartbreaking. And, it is hard for our minds and hearts to accept the truth that we are not loved back. We kept on expecting and hoping that someday the person we love will reciprocate the feeling we have for them. But, the more you hope and expect, the more you become hurt until one day you find the courage to tell yourself, ‘this is enough I have to move on’. So, what are the best and the godly ways to move on from unrequited love? Here they are: 1. Believe and accept JESUS as your LORD and Savior. This is the first step to moving on. By doing this, your focus is shifted from the person you love, to the LORD. If you are not a believer or a Christian yet, you should first believe and accept JESUS as your LORD and SAVIOR. You can pray this prayer: “LORD JESUS, I believe that you are the On...

Seven proofs that JESUS is GOD

I woke up this dawn feeling hungry, so I cooked some Ramen noodles and ate. After eating, I went back to bed to continue sleeping but I heard the Voice of the LORD telling me to write an article about the Seven proofs that JESUS is our One True GOD. So I prayed. I told Him that I am willing and His will be done and I asked Him to give me knowledge on what are those seven proofs that He is saying. These are the seven proofs that He gave me. 1. He created the world, us, and everything around us. Colossians 1:16 says this, " For by Him (JESUS) were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by Him, and for Him: " See, it is stated clearly here that all things were created by Him and for Him. JESUS is our Creator. He is our Father and our GOD.  2. He is the Word. It is said in John 1:1 that , " In the beginning was the Wo...
