Biblical Guardrail

May kilala ka ba sa community nyo na lalapit lang sayo ang tao pag may kailangan? In the Bible, the followers of Jesus Christ was questioned and rebuked after seeking after the blessings rather than the "Giver of Blessing." And in this present time, we also tend to seek only the blessings of God pero di naman tayo sumusunod sa Kanya. Ano ba ang mas importante sa buhay natin? Ang ma-bless or magkaroon ng relationship sa nagbibigay ng blessings satin? May this devotion correct our hearts and let's decide na piliin si Jesus Christ ngayon kaysa sa sarili natin interest.

We are all blessed in many ways; sa ayaw at sa gusto natin. Pero ano sa tingin natin ang "Ultimate Provision?" Magkaroon ng million sa bank account natin? Matupad mga #TravelGoals o gumaling sa sakit? According to the Bible, the Ultimate Provision was already gave to us through the death and ressurection of Jesus Christ. We might often question His ways and doubt His goodness, we must remember na kung kaya ibigay ni Lord ang Kanyang Anak para tayo'y mapatawad sa ating mga kasalanan, what more pa kaya yung mga dasal natin (Romans 8:32). Let's listen today's devotion and may we praise the Lord for His ultimate provision for us.

May "Secret Formula" ba kailangan sundin para marinig ng Diyos ang ating mga panalangin? Lahat tayo may hinihingi sa Diyos at wala naman mali na tayo'y manalangin sa ating pangangailangan. Pero before tayo mag-focus sa sarili nating agenda, alam ba natin ano ang kalooban ng Diyos sa atin? Kailangan ba masunod muna Sya before yung prayers natin yung masunod? Makinig tayo sa Salita ng Diyos and learn how we can seek God and His Righteouness FIRST before our own needs. May you be blessed today and follow His Ways today!

"Naniniwala parin ba tayo na "The Lord will Provide" sa dami nating gastusin and pangngailangan sa buhay? Sa Bibliya, pinakita ni Abraham ang kanyang "Mountain-Climbing Faith" na kahit inutusan sya ng Diyos na ialay ang kaisa-isa nyang anak, hindi sya nag dalawang isip na sumunod. Bakit ganun nalang ang faith nya sa Diyos despite of his desperation? Makinig tayo sa Salita ng Diyos and may His word and example of Abraham give us the "Mountain Climbing Faith" ngayon araw!

“May mga goals ba tayo kumita ng malaki pero na-sacrifice na yung mental health mo and relasyon mo sa Diyos? Sa sobrang hakot natin sa bawat opportunity to earn money, madalas nakakalimutan na natin ang mga mas importante sa buhay and sa iba nagkakasakit pa. Kaya sa episode na ito, may the Word of God be your Guardrail over your financial decisions and be more discerning on how you seek the most important things than money itself.”

“What we insert to our minds becomes a courseware of our lives. At sa dami mga fakenews and irrelevant contents/tsismis na nakukuha natin sa social media, madalas ito na ang nagiging definition ng buhay natin. But if our minds are God-centered and rooted to His Word, our lives will be more blessed and peaceful ano man pagsubok dumating sayo.  May this episode help us to be reminded of how God’s word works as a mental guardrail. May your mind be more healthy with the Word of God today!”

“Sabi ng Bible, our words can bring life and death to people. Words are powerful and can bring happiness or hurtful emotions in us and to the people around us. So why do we tend to curse people more than bless them? Why do we tend to gossip/slander rather than to encourage? In this episode, Pastor Jeff shares why we need the Word of God as a Guardrail over our mouths and how we can bless others with the words we say. May the Word of God change our “Marites” mind and be a blessing.

“Bata palang tayo, we are taught to live by rules because it's for our own safety. Pero dahil sa mga impluwensya ng ating paligid, mapa-social media man yan o sa community natin, we tend to live by their rules and do what is not right to the eyes of God. In this episode, let the Word of God teach us how to focus our moral compass to what is true and honorable; not on the people you follow on social media. Malakas man ang impluwensya ng mundo, but God’s word is the Guardrail you can trust and hope on.”

“Ano ang definition sayo ng Guardrails? Bakit kailangan natin ito hindi lamang sa kalsada pero sa buhay natin? As we go on to our lives, meron tayong mga desisyon sa buhay na walang “guardrails,” ended up reaping bad consequences and pain in our lives. Good thing, the Word of God is a Perfect Guardrail that can help us with our everyday tasks, make important decisions, and build maturity in Christ.. For the first episode of our series “Guardrails,” our Daily Brad will teach us how to appreciate having God’s Word as our guide and protection.”

Nakakapagod ang buhay noh? Sa pabago bago ng panahon, mahal ng presyo ng bilihin, at bigat ng mga problema natin, nakakapagod talaga ang araw-araw na pasanin natin. Minsan naman, kahit ano iwas natin sa bisyo at kasalanan, napapagod din tayo manindigan with our convictions. Today, the Lord is inviting us to come to Him. To humble ourselves and come as we are. Let the Word of God give you the humility to seek Him everyday and let Him give you rest over your burdens.
