The God that bless 1 chr 14

David was sensitive to acknowledge Gods blessings In his life, to gain favor from man and growth as a King. God did it to bless his people through King David.

Principle 1: God bless us so that he can bless the people around us 

David was attacked by the philistines 

Principle 2: there will always be warfare even when we are doing the right things

David seek God before the war

principle 3: Those who trust In God and his ways gains victory 

David was attacked by philistines a 2nd time

Principle 4: We are consistently having warfare 

Principle 5: we don't place our confidence in our strength or past victories 

Principle 6: God don't always work the same way and we need to continuely seek him in all aspects of our lives.

All the nations fear King David

Principle 7: when God is with us, even the enemies can tell. 

My personal application ; always learn to depend on God and seek him in all kinds of warfare. Learn to ask God what to do next, and blessings belongs to God and the purpose of blessing his people.

1 chr 13 Fear God

I kinda understand King David when his anger became fear towards God. I too fear him... A fear not out of love. But I want to believe also in His love and grace upon my life.

God is so Holy, and his ways so different that Uzzah had to die not his fault  I feel sad for him but I also understood God's holiness and perfection... I wish for God's blessing and love, that also means that I must follow and obey him his ways.

Application: to attend to their needs if any, to learn from them if any, to fellowship with them if any, to be tender and compassionate I must be. To learn to pray for all of us to grow in the Lord.

To give back the Glory to God?
Humility in obedience: to obey God just as Christ did to the cross. To deny myself and submiting myself to Jesus authority, as my God. Giving him the credits and thanks giving.

Application: to serve the church where God has place me without any interest, without any comfort, without significance.

Tired

I've been in and out hospital everyday. Spending time with my dad and family. It's kind of tiring. Almost all my family members are sick. Had to deal with work and church. Usually mornings I am energetic, now I couldn't even find strength to go gym. Also with my shoulder injury.

I hope to get a good rest. That is the inner rest

Dad's cancer

Today my dad is admitted to hospital due a kind of blood cancer. And I simply pray God will do his work. Have  not come to a point to know of what to do and feel or even think, but surely to be mentally prepared.

How fragile life can be...

Choosing right companies

As I am preparing for the young people session on Nov. Basically the outline is something that I apply in my life and speaks to me personally.

Right company and friends
1. Builds our relationship with God
2. Builds our character
3. Builds our boundaries

Wrong company and friends
1. Destroys our relationship with God
2. Destroys our character
3. Destroys our boundaries
