This month, we emphasize that our involvement must have a right purpose. There will never be true involvement unless we have a deep purpose why we should involve. When we see God’s work as just a pastime, then we would never involve. Yet, I thank God that many of you have already seen a higher purpose why we serve, why we sacrifice and why we involve. That is for the cause of Christ. As I always say, this is neither my ministry nor yours; this is all about obeying God and His will in our lives!

With just few weeks remaining before the year ends, our theme for this year should still stir a challenge in our hearts. The challenges and testimonies we received during our Missions Conference must still be reminding us that we have a lot to do for the Lord. There are still souls to be reached and ministries that need our involvement. As we get busy for the year-ender activities, may we not neglect God’s work.

Please pray for me as I preach today in Pastor Ventura’s church here in Laoag. Let’s all pray and expect that God would bless our Sunday!

We only have 5 Sundays to go before our scheduled family camp. Since we have a goal to avail of the exclusivity of the Rizal Re-creation Center, we are all enjoined to pay our camp fee at the earliest possible time. Payments may be given to Sis. Bajo Tolentino at the ushers’ table after the evening service.

"...forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,

I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus."

SALAMAT SA PAGKILOS NG DIYOS UPANG AKO’Y MAKAGAWABeata Agustin

Di ko kayang iligtas aking kaluluwa mula sa parusa ng pagkakasala

Gawain ito ng Diyos sa biyaya Niyang dakila

Salamat sa pagkilos Niya upang tanggapin ko si Kristo sa lubusang pagtitiwala

Kaya ako ngayo’y nabubuhay sa katubusan Niyang mapagpala.

Di ko kayang baguhin aking sarili tungo sa tamang pag-uugali

Gawain ito ng Diyos sa kabanalan Niyang nananatili

Salamat sa pagkilos Niya upang pagsisiha’t talikuran ko mga pagkakamali

Kaya ako ngayo’y nagpupunyagi sa katuwiran Niyang kumakandili.

Di ko kayang ipaglaban aking pananampalataya tuwing sinusubukan

Gawain ito ng Diyos sa Salita Niyang makapangyarihan

Salamat sa pagkilos Niya upang paniwalaan ko ang Biblyang dalisay sa katotohanan

Kaya ako ngayo’y nagpapakatatag sa katuruan Niyang masasandigan.

Di ko kayang imulat aking paningin para sa makalangit na adhikain

Gawain ito ng Diyos sa panukala Niyang tukoy Kanyang tagubilin

Salamat sa pagkilos Niya upang makita ko pangangailangang ilaw ay paliwanagin

Kaya ako ngayo’y nagsisikap sa mithiin Niyang sa Kanyang kaharian mga tao’y akayin.

Di ko kayang sabihin aking patotoo sa gitna ng maraming tao

Gawain ito ng Diyos sa patnubay Niyang namumuno

Salamat sa pagkilos Niya upang maibahagi ko mabuting balita nang buong puso

Kaya ako ngayo’y nakakapagsalita sa tulong Niyang di bumibigo.

Di ko kayang pabungahin aking paglilingkod kahit ito’y sa kasipagan nakatungkod

Gawain ito ng Diyos sa tiyaga Niyang namumukod

Salamat sa pagkilos Niya upang ipanalangin ko tuwina kalagayang napapagod

Kaya ako ngayo’y nagpapakasigla sa ligaya Niyang nakalulugod.

Di ko kayang ipagpatuloy aking pagiging tapat ayon sa pamantayang nararapat

Gawain ito ng Diyos sa habag Niyang sagana’t awang sapat

Salamat sa pagkilos Niya upang isuko ko ang lahat sa kabila na ako’y salat

Kaya ako ngayo’y napapanatag sa katapatan Niyang lagi kong ipinagpapasalamat.

Max Jukes lived in New York. He did not believe in Christ or in Christian training. He refused to take his children to church, even when they asked to go. He has had 1,026 descendants; 300 were sent to prison for an average term of thirteen years; 190 were public prostitutes; 680 were admitted alcoholics. His family, thus far, has cost the state in excess of $420,000. They made no contribution to society. Jonathan Edwards lived in the same state, at the same time as Jukes. He loved the Lord and saw that his children were in church every Sunday, as he served the Lord to the best of his ability. He has had 929 descendants, and of these 430 were ministers; 86 became university professors; 13 became university presidents; 75 authored good books; 7 were elected to the United States Congress. One was vice president of his na-tion. His family never cost the state one cent but has contributed immeasurably to the life of plenty today.

Always trust them to God’s care. Bring them to church. Challenge them to high goals. Delight in their achievements. Exalt the Lord in their presence. Frown on evil. Give them love. Hear their problems. Ignore not their childish fears. Joyfully accept their apologies. Keep their confidence. Live a good example before them. Make them your friends. Never ignore their endless questions. Open your home to their visits. Pray for them by name. Quicken your interest in their spirituality. Remember their needs. Show them the way of salvation. Teach them to work. Understand they are still young. Verify your statements. Wean them from bad company. Expect them to obey. Yearn for God’s best for them. Zealously guide them in biblical truth.

President Theodore Roosevelt had four sons. He was very proud when the first three sons announced their intention to join the military. But when his fourth son also decided to join the Army, the old president refused. “Not all my boys,” he said to his wife. But she replied, “Ted, if you raised them as eagles, you cannot expect them to fly like sparrows.” The principle of Proverbs 22:6 can be clearly seen here. "Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old he will not depart from it."

There are 3 things to consider:

1. You announce what you want

your child to be by what you teach him.

2. You announce what you want

your child to be by the example you set.

3. You announce what you want

your child to be by the plans

you make for him.

Maaari Mong Matiyak ang LangitAng sabi ni Hesus, “Ako ang daan, ang katotohanan, at ang buhay: walang makapupunta sa Ama kundi sa pamamagitan ko.” Juan 14:6

Wala nang iba pang makapagliligtas sa iyo mula sa impiyerno. Magtiwala ka kay Hesus ngayon! Roma 6:23

“Kung ipahahayag ng iyong bibig na si Hesus ay Panginoon at mananampalataya ka nang buong puso na Siya’y muling binuhay ng Diyos, ikaw ay maliligtas”. Roma 10:9

1. Aminin mo na ikaw ay isang makasalanan. Roma 3:102. Magsisi ka sa iyong kasalanan. Gawa 17:303. Manampalataya ka na si Kristo Hesus ay namatay para sa iyo, nalibing at nabuhay namagmuli. Roma 10:9-104. Sa pamamagitan ng panalangin, tanggapin mo si Hesus sa iyong puso bilang iyong Tagapagligtas. Roma 10:13

Manalangin ka ng ganito:Panginoon, ako po ay isang makasalanan at nangangailangan ng kapatawaran. Nanampalataya po ako na nadanak ng dugo ni Hesus at Siya ay namatay sa krus para sa akin. Nagsisisi po ako sa aking mga kasalanan. Tinatanggap ko po si Kristo Hesus sa aking puso bilang aking Tagapagligtas. Amen.

"Kung tinanggap mo si Hesus bilang iyong Tagapagligtas, ito na ang simula ng iyong bagong buhay kay Kristo." Roma 8:1

Ngayon:1. Basahin mo ang iyong Biblia araw-araw upang makilala pa ng lubusan si Kristo Hesus. 2. Makipag-usap ka sa Diyos sa panalangin araw-araw. 3. Manambahan ka sa isang simbahan na pinapangaral si Kristo at ang Biblia ang tanging pamantayan.4. Ibahagi sa iba si Kristo Hesus.
