LEVEL UP!

Do you ever get bored or feel tired with your life?
Maybe always stuck in the same level?

Yes, u re now reading the right blog! Cause now i'm going to uncover the secrets of how to get a breakthrough in life (fr winter camp by Ps. Nala). We all know that God has a great plan for us, all of us. But why some people experience extraordinary things in their lives? While others are stuck in their so-so life? Always in the same level, no progress at all.
It's not because God doesn't love us. But maybe there's something wrong with us. We need to reflect on these things according to the Bible, so that we can get a true understanding.

For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. (Jeremiah 29:11 NIV)

1. Open ourselves to Him

As a father care to his children, that's how God care to us. He is willing to listen to every single problem that we face. But sometimes we are the one who hide from Him.
From now on, try to open ourselves. Don't be fake to Him. Just be yourself and tell Him everything. Deep cries out to Him. Openness is the beginning of a recovery. When we open up to Him, breaktrough will happen. Level up will happen. And our life will be a blessing for many people!

2. Sacrifice

Breakthrough occurs through a long process of price paid. God Himself has sacrificed His greatest treasure for us; His Son, Jesus Christ.
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. (John 3:16 NIV)

So, what should we sacrifice to Him? Our time. Out of 24 hours a day, can't we use about 15 minutes for Him? Come to Him, enjoy His presence, pray to Him, worship Him, and read His Words.
All those the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never drive away. (John 6:37 NIV)

3. Vision

Don't ask for money, position, and stuff like that to Him. Ask for a vision. When we have a vision in our life, we know what is our goal and we will always find ways to reach it. But remember, the vision of our life should be to glorify God, cause that's what we were created for~

Try to do these 3 things above. And a breakthrough will soon happen in your life! Be ready for level up! Yeayy

Nana

Prince of Peace

Lately i feel so confused about my future. I don't know where to study, what course should i take, i don't even know my dream, i don't know what is my real passion, and what i wanna be in the future. Actually i've been applying to a university. But when the time is getting closer, i was like.. God is it the right place? God, is it my real passion? Should i change my course? and so on.

What makes me more confused is people's advices. Some people say A, but the other say B. ( but i'm so so so grateful that God gave me so many friends who really care bout me ). Shortly, i asked my eldest sister. She gave me her advice and this bible verse


PHP 4:6-7 NIV
Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

then she told me " Peace comes after gratitude to God ". 

I'm so helped and blessed by her advice. I learned that we can't find peace by our own. We can't also find peace from other. But we can only find peace in Jesus. Why? Because He is a Prince of Peace.

For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. (Isaiah 9:6 NIV)

These days i really pray, pray, and pray. Finally, today He answered me and i've made my final decision. hehe. What i can tell u guys is our God, Jesus Christ, He is Peace. So if you are confused right now, maybe to choose this or that, firstly you should have a grateful heart (that will lead you to peace), and always remember one thing, choose the one which gives you peace. When it comes to bring real peace, it's always God. Cause He is the only source of peace. (the real and eternal one)

Love,
Nana

BIC Winter Camp 2013

Holaaa! Finally i'm back! So the last two weeks i went to melbourne to visit my sister. Unplanned, BIC Winter Camp 2013 held when i was there. Shortly, i joined in the camp. I believe that was not a coincidence, but it was God's plan for me to be in that camp. I'm so grateful for the chance to be in that very amazing camp. I felt a very powerful presence of God there. I also learned so many things from the camp and i will share a few things in this blog...

1. Do not focus on man, but on Him

Consciously or not, sometimes we put our focus on man, not on God. This is my own story. When i went to church, I used to focus on the priest who's preaching that day. So, when i don't really like the priest who's gonna preach that day, there are two possibility. First, i don't go to church. Second, i'm going but not listening. In this camp, i learned that my focus should be on God, not on man. It doesn't matter who's gonna preach as long as He is the focus of the preaching. So don't ever underestimate His servant. Whether he/she is still newbie, young, not famous, or whatever. Cause our God love to do impossible things. He can use anyone. He can use the people around you. And even you're not a pastor, priest, or preacher, if He wanna use you, He can and He will. So, let's keep our eyes focus on God! Not because who i am, but because who You are!

2. Be ready to experience unimaginable things in God

Our God is magnificent, eternally wonderful, glorious! He can do all things. What seems impossible in our eyes is totally possible for Him. He want us to be ready. Ready to see the impossible happens, ready to experience unimaginable things with Him. Don't think to much. Don't put too much logic. Just believe, and let He works in His own way!


So the 2 points above is what i wanna share for now. Wait for my next blog! I will share the preaching of several sessions next time!

Whoever you are reading this right now, be sure to always remember that Jesus loves you so much!!
