Coffee Time with God

Coffee Time With God Day 3 Devotion                                       Worship Central Mission Team in Tubao La Union Marcos 6:1-6 Umalis doon si Jesus at umuwi siya sa sariling bayan kasama ang kanyang mga alagad. 2 Pagdating ng Araw ng Pamamahinga, si Jesus ay nagturo sa sinagoga. Maraming tao ang nakarinig sa kanya at sa kanilang pagkamangha'y nagtanungan sila, “Saan niya natutunan ang lahat ng iyan? Anong karunungan itong ipinagkaloob sa kanya? Paano siya nakakagawa ng mga himala? 3 Hindi ba ito ang karpinterong anak ni Maria, at kapatid nina Santiago, Jose, Judas, at Simon? Tagarito rin ang kanyang mga kapatid na babae, hindi ba?” Kaya hindi sila naniwala sa kanya. 4 Dahil dito, sinabi ni Jesus sa kanila, “Ang isang propeta'y iginagalang ng lahat, maliban ng kanyang mga kababayan, mga kamag-anak, at ng kanyang pamilya.” 5 Hindi siya nakagawa ng himala roon, m...

 BIBLE JOURNEY: 1 SAMUEL 8:6 But when they said, “Give us a king to lead us,’ this displeased Samuel, so he prayed to the Lord.” Did you experience disappointments in the ministry? What were those? And what did you do? Samuel was displeased when the people ask him to appoint a king to lead them. For long years of serving the nation of Israel as a judge, the people still didn’t understand that throughout their journey from Egypt to Canaan, God has been protecting them from their enemy just like a King protecting his people. What displeased him was the fact that the people of Israel would like to turn from a theocracy to a monarchial system of government. It’s an obvious display of transferring their trust to human leadership for the wrong motive.   Being a minister for sixteen years, I have also experienced so many disappointments. Hindi lang sa fellow-leaders maging sa mga members. You know the feeling that you preach and teach the Word of God but some members keep on do...

  Preaching Manuscript 01:  January 1, 2023 TEXT:     Matthew 7:21-23 Happy New Year! “Bagong taon ay magbagong buhay, nang lumigaya ang ating bayan. Tayo’y magsikap upang makamtan natin ang kasaganaan…” Madalas itong kinakanta sa pasko pero alam ba natin o nauunawaan ba natin ang ibig sabihin ng bawat talata ng kantang ito? Napakagandang challenge sa bawat isa sa atin bilang mga Kristiyano na itong taong 2023 ay mabago ang ating mindset O LIFESTYLE sa pagiging Kristiyano. Marami sa atin ang Nominal Christian. They are Christians by name only. Marami rin ang Seasonal Christian. They are the Christians na lulubog lilitaw. Marami ring Busy Christians. They are very active in the ministry o hataw sa ministry. Pero nakakatakot na sa pagdating ng ating Panginoon ay sasabihin Niya sa kanila, “Hindi ka puwedeng makapasok sa aking Kaharian o SINO KA? HINDI KITA KILALA.” Mababasa natin ito sa Matthew 7:21-23 21 “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ wi...

  BIBLE JOURNEY: 1 SAMUEL 13:13-14 Hindi lahat ng Church Leaders ay tama? Someone must rebuke them if they are heading on the wrong path. Maraming church leaders ngayon ang akala nila ay kalooban pa rin ng Diyos ang kanilang ginagawa. They need someone to correct them if their plans put a heavy load on other people, if they urge people to pursue temporal glory at the expense of everlasting glory, or if they lead people to their own personal glory. As Samuel grew older, he served as a messenger for the Lord and gained a reputation as a prophet of integrity. Samuel exhibits a number of traits, including directness. When he was speaking about God, he did not mince words. This is demonstrated in 1 Samuel 13 when Samuel rebukes Saul for disobeying the Lord's commands. 1 Samuel 13:13-14 “You acted foolishly,” Samuel said, “You have not kept the command the Lord your God gave you; if you had, he would have established your kingdom over Israel for all time. But now your kingdom wil...

BIBLE JOURNEY: 1 SAMUEL 3: 9 "Speak, Lord, for your servant is listening." What would be your response when GOD called you into the ministry? When Samuel was just a boy, he received his first calling from God in 1 Samuel chapter 3. Samuel was lying down one night when he heard a loud voice calling out his name. Thinking the voice belonged to Eli, Samuel ran to him and said, “Here I am, you called me” (3:5). Eli answered that it was not him who called Samuel’s name. This same order of events happened two more times before Eli realized it was the Lord who was calling Samuel. Eli told Samuel the next time he heard his name called, he should answer, “Speak, Lord, for your servant is listening” (3:9). Samuel did as he was told, and the Lord revealed his first of many prophesies to Samuel. And what about us? What would be our response when God called us into the ministry? Would we voluntarily say, "Here I am, Lord, use me powerfully"? or "Wait, Lord; I am not prepare...
