Family Now

February 4, 2024

1 Corinthians 12:4-27; Ephesians 4:1-16 — We are God’s family, and as His family, we are the Body of Christ now and here in this world to represent Christ and to call others into the family. We are the One Body consisting of many members with various cultural backgrounds, individual talents, gifts, and roles. All these are given by the Holy Spirit to love, serve, and build up the Body so that we will all become perfect in Christ. This also enables us to persevere in the midst of the attacks of Satan and the world that seeks to destroy God’s family.

Worship Now

January 28, 2024

John 4:19-26 — Worship is our reverential response to the all-encompassing magnificence of God. Whether it be in song, conversation, prayer, art, preaching, ministry, work, or life, worship is an expression of gratitude, thankfulness, and love towards God, our Father. The Lord desires hearts that worship Him with sincerity and authenticity, hearts that are surrendered completely to Him. He seeks people who realize and acknowledge the truth of who God is and what He has done, and who respond by the Spirit’s prompting with everything that is in them. We are God’s spiritual temples. Therefore, we worship Him with all of our lives as living sacrifices, and as such, we call and invite others to come and worship God.

We Are His People Now

January 21, 2024

1 Peter 2:4-12 — God created us to be His possession and for His glory. However, sin separated us from the holy God, and all of us fall short of His glory. But through God’s grace, we have been justified freely through the redemption that came through Jesus Christ. Because of what Jesus did on the Cross, we are now reconciled with our Heavenly Father through Jesus Christ. Hence, we are now His! We are His chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, his special possession, messengers, and masterpieces. We are His for a purpose—to declare His praises by living good and holy lives.

Pray Now

Luke 17:20-18:8 — In these last days we are called to urgent prayer now. Prayer must be our first and primary work. We must pray always, without ceasing. We should not give up, lose heart, or fear.

Wake Up Now

January 7, 2024

Romans 13:8-14 — We should wake up from any spiritual sleep we may be in, and seize this time and make the best of it because we are living in the last days. This is the time to live the radical kingdom life of loving our fellow human beings as ourselves so that we can impact this world for God’s glory and proclaim the gospel in word and action. We can do this by putting aside the deeds of darkness and putting on the armor of light, that is, clothe ourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ. He, as Lord of all of our lives all the time, enables us to do this now, to love now. We should be fully present to what Christ has for us now, in this time.

Simeon: God-fearing Love & Joyful Anticipation

December 17, 2023

Luke 2:22-35 — Are we filled with joy, thanksgiving, excitement, and God-fearing love because of Jesus’ first coming? Are we filled with God-fearing love, joyful anticipation, and excited expectation about Jesus’ 2nd coming? We should be because we have seen the Lord’s salvation. We have seen Jesus, the Lord’s Christ. We have the blessed assurance of God’s promise that He will return and we will see Him face to face. In the meantime, while we await his return in faith, hope, and love, we should live out the kingdom life with God-fearing love in word and action so that He will find us ready and busy at his work.
