(Preaching po ito ng Pastor namin nung Sunday 4/12/15)
STEPS TO A NEW BEGINNING
Gusto mo ba ng pagbabago? O gusto mo ganyan ka nalang forever?
Ang mahirap na buhay ay yung buhay na pinag papatuloy ang nakaraan. Ano ba ang meron sa nakaraan? Madaming failures at mistakes, at minsan yung nga bagay na yun ay patuloy mo na ginagawa ngayon kaya hindi ka makaramas ng New Beginning.
Sabi nga ni Pastor Bong, "Wag kang makuntento na taga-pakinig lang. Wala namang masama dun, pero dapat magkaroon ka din sa puso mo na. Dapat ikaw na yung pinapakinggan"
Totoo naman diba? Minsan nakakasawa din na puro ikaw nalang yung nakikinig. Yung lagi ka nalang member, yung para bang wala kang pagkakataon na ipakita yung galing mo.
Kaya dude, wag kang makontento na taga-pakinig ka lang. There is something in you na may matutunan at maiinspire ang mga tao. Kaya i-share mo na yan!
Sabi nga ni Bishop Oriel Ballano nung Regional Conference, "LIFE IS TOO SHORT TO LIVE ORDINARY"
Napaka ikli lang ng buhay, tapos namumuhay ka ng normal?
Yes, life is ordinary you're the one who make it complicated.
At alam mo ba kung bakit complicated? Kasi IKAW yung nasusunod sa buhay mo at hindi si Lord!
Bakit nasabi na "Life is too short to life ordinary"? Kasi ayaw ni Lord na Normal ka lang.
Kasi alam mo ba ang buhay na Normal? --oh wait, gusto kong sabihin na hindi masama ang mamuhay ng normal. But, i just want to say. Dude, maikli na nga ang buhay. Gagawin mo pang normal? How boring. Ang i didn't encourage you to make it complicated. But i encourage you to COMMIT YOUR LIFE TO JESUS AND LET HIM MAKE IT EXTRAORDINARY.
Bakit ba pinu-push ang salitang, New Beginning?
What's with the word, "New Beginning"?
New Beginning means New Level of Life.
Dude, wag kang makontento na hanggang dyan ka lang. Kahit hindi ka nilikha ni Lord na hanggang dyan Lang!
Lets read Ephesians 4:17-32
17 This I say, then, and give witness in the Lord, that you are to go no longer in the way of the Gentiles whose minds are turned to that which has no profit,
18 Whose thoughts are dark, to whom the life of God is strange because they are without knowledge, and their hearts have been made hard;
19 Who having no more power of feeling, have given themselves up to evil passions, to do all unclean things with overmuch desire.
20 For this was not the teaching of Christ which was given to you;
21 If in fact you gave ear to him, and were given teaching in him, even as what is true is made clear in Jesus:
22 That you are to put away, in relation to your earlier way of life, the old man, which has become evil by love of deceit;
23 And be made new in the spirit of your mind,
24 And put on the new man, to which God has given life, in righteousness and a true and holy way of living.
25 And so, putting away false words, let everyone say what is true to his neighbour: for we are parts one of another.
26 Be angry without doing wrong; let not the sun go down on your wrath;
27 And do not give way to the Evil One.
28 Let him who was a thief be so no longer, but let him do good work with his hands, so that he may have something to give to him who is in need.
29 Let no evil talk come out of your mouth, but only what is good for giving necessary teaching, and for grace to those who give ear.
30 And do not give grief to the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were marked for the day of salvation.
31 Let all bitter, sharp and angry feeling, and noise, and evil words, be put away from you, with all unkind acts;
32 And be kind to one another, full of pity, having forgiveness for one another, even as God in Christ had forgiveness for you.
(Its a BBE version, My Swords kasi yung naka-install sa Cp ko. Pero ang gagamitin kong dito ay CEV -youth bible)
Pastor give us a 3 steps to a new beginning. (Again, Preaching po ito ni Pastor and i'll add some explaination lead by the Holy Spirit)
1. DICONTINUE (please read Eph.v17-21) at sabi sa CEV (Contemporary English Version)
Discontinue means Stop -Tigilan.
*Minsan may nga bagay kang dapat ihinto para makaranas ka ng bago.
We're dealing with a New Beginning.
*Baliw ang umaasa ng pagbabago pero hindi naman tumitigil sa pag gawa ng mali.
Dude, don't assume greatness if you do badness!
Sabi nga ni Pastor. "Stop, that you can be a Top"
Learn to recognize God's stop signal.
Alam mo, may mga bagay ng pinapahinto sayo si Lord. Maybe, it would be your Addiction, Sin, Having a boyfriend/girlfriend na wala pa sa time at walang basbas ng magulang, watching pornorgraphies and etc.
Alam na alam mo kung ano yung pinapatigil ng Lord sayo. If you really what to have a New Beginning. Kailangan mong may bitawan at iwanan.
