Be made perfect in God's way


Mark 2:17 ‘’on hearing this, Jesus said to them, "It is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick. I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners."

Are you waiting until you are perfect then start seeking God? Well, that looks like it’s going to take a very long time, and God isn’t busy searching for those who are perfect, and the sad thing is this, we can never attain perfection on own, yet this is the beauty of being a human(Ecclesiastes 7:20). Only Christ managed to live blameless in the whole of human history, and he did this so that you and I can be made perfect before God.

People who are healthy are less likely to go and see a doctor compared to those who are sick. It’s also true to those living in a wealthy world; some of them don’t think there is a need to seek God’s help; they’ve already come to perfection on their own. Everyone, of course, needs a doctor at one time or another, even if only for a physical examination.

What shines forth and reveals God in your life is not your relative consistency to an idea of what a saint should be, but your genuine, living relationship with Jesus Christ, and your unrestrained devotion to Him whether you are well or sick.

So many times we want to come to God only when we think that we have achieved perfection, however the problem is that we can never achieve perfection by ourselves, perfection comes from God. God isn’t looking for perfection—at least not our idea of perfection. God desires us to approach Him with our filthy hearts, He will wash us and make us clean. We need to be cleaned under His guidance not on our own terms.

When we are not worth it to the world, God sees the best in us. God is not seeking for your perfection; He is looking for the broken seeking perfection in Him. We will never be perfect by ourselves; we need God to bring out the best in us. If you think that God is looking for the perfect, then you’re wrong surely wrong on that case.

God will take you the way you are, whether rich or poor, whether weak or strong. When you feel lost, just come to His care, he will show you what perfection really means. No matter how much good you do, without His perfection you are nothing. No matter how many sacrifices you make, without Him you are nothing.

Christian perfection is not, and never can be, human perfection. Christian perfection is the perfection of a relationship with God that shows itself to be true even amid the seemingly unimportant aspects of human life

He gave His own son so that you can be made perfect without paying any price, without having to worry about your mistakes. God is seeking for the broken, to bring them to perfection. With Christ everything is already cleared. So don’t worry about how filthy you are, just come to Him as you are, He will make you perfect without paying any price or worry. God has done this freely. Come to God today before it’s too late.

JESUS came to heal the sick and that’s whether you were sick because you were living in sin or sick from a physical condition.  Whatever your condition is, JESUS is there for it no matter if you are rich or poor we all have a chance to be delivered from our problem that’s one thing JESUS does not discriminate.

God doesn’t expect us to be perfect. All He asks is that we try our best to love Him and others.When we do that, we can feel secure in His love, and that changes our whole outlook. We feel better about ourselves, and that helps us to see the best in others and to make the most of our circumstances. Life isn’t perfect, but that’s okay. God knew better.

God has worked into every human heart a deep desire for perfection. That desire is manifested in the admiration which all men have for excellence in the different objects or pursuits to which they attach value. In the believer who yields himself wholly to God, this desire fastens itself upon God's wonderful promises, and inspires a prayer like that of M'Cheyne: "Lord, make me as holy as a pardoned sinner can be made."

James 1:4 ‘’And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.’’

Matthew 5:48 ‘’You therefore must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.’’

Until next time,
Chaow Chaow!

Should Your Religion Be Based On Your Feelings? Here is the answer..

Should a person decide what to believe based on his or her feelings or something that does not change with moods and circumstances? Big question! Imagine Jesus of Nazareth nailed up on the cross, dying for our sins. Suppose He said, “This is not fun. I am not feeling anything good up here. Let me off this cross. I expected good feelings, not this! Pain is not where it is at for Me. My commitment to die to pay the penalty for man’s sin is far beyond what I am feeling right now.” How would you have counseled Jesus when the bad pain hit Him? Feelings based religion is shaky. Commitments based on good feelings are subject to change any day. This unbiblical approach would make all our commitments very tentative, unpredictable, shaky. This includes: marriage, family, job and friends. A marriage vow would only mean, “I’ll stay with you as long as my good feelings last. I expect only good times, no bad ones.” Jesus did not bail out when the going got tough. Some beliefs a Christian should also...

The second necessary step in designing a successful nonprofit strategy is knowing your beneficiaries

Last week I started a series of blog posts on building a strong and successful strategy for your nonprofit and I started with mentioning the first necessary step you will need to examine before kicking off with your strategy. If you haven’t read that post, I recommend that you visit the article HERE before continuing with this one. Having familiarity with the first article will help you understand this one even much better. This week we are looking at the second step to take when designing your nonprofit strategy, and that step in designing and building a strong and successful strategy for your nonprofit is clearly knowing, stating, and understanding who your beneficiaries are. Some organizations talk about beneficiaries, others refer to participants, others to clients, service users or partners. Here we will refer to beneficiaries as the people whom your nonprofit seeks to benefit. The reason why many nonprofit strategies fail is because too often nonprofits and funders ignore the con...

Being set free by the master who holds the keys to life

After Jesus died on the cross He went down to hell, crushed the devil, and took the keys of life. The devil held us prisoners to fear of death, but now we are given the chance to enjoy eternal life with God the father. The greatest gift the human race can ever earn. It’s all free of charge to be set free, for the master has promised to do this free of charge to all those who desire to be free. If you have not yet accepted Christ, then you are still in a prison cell and you need to be freed from this. The only way that can happen is if you humble yourself and come to the master who has the keys to set you free. If you are in the devils prison, you can’t save yourself, not matter how good you think you are in escaping. You will never be able to escape until you let the master who took the keys set you free. You will try million ways and times, but I assure you, you will never succeed on your own. Many of you may say ‘well I am free’, I can assure you that you are only free in the flesh; ...
