From the Pastor’s Desk
M
any, O LORD my God, are thy wonderful works which thou hast done, … (Psalm 40:5a). This is a part of the verse quoted many times this week, being the theme of our Daily Vacation Bible School. And I can testify that God did many wonderful works this week including the salvation of many children. I sincerely appreciate those members who cooperated with your respective area and participated on this first week of DVBS. Inspite of a hot weather, many of you gave your best in teaching, assisting, feeding, driving, sharing the Gospel, sacrificing your time and loving these precious children. This truly is an evident that you want God to use you, and that there are still Christians who wants to have a life holy and pleasing to God. Nobody would want to be used of God and of the world at the same time. Indeed, there can still be a revival in Christianity for holy living. Your labour will never be in vain. This week there will still be several areas who will hold their DVBS. Pray that more souls would be saved and added to the church. As we gather in church today, let us be reminded that this is our day to be recharged with God’s Word. Be sensitive to the Holy Spirit’s working. What we get today will be essential as we will be challenged to live a holy life in a sinful world. Praying that God will give us a great Sunday and a great week!

DVBS First Batch Held The first batch of our Daily Vacation Bible School (DVBS) 2010 held last May 17-21 was a great success. With the theme “Discovering the Awesome Power of God,” the DVBS made a great impact and created excitement in the lives of the children. There were 22 areas that participated in the first batch composed of Areas 1 to 9, 12 to13, 17, 23, 26 to32, and 34 to 35. It was truly a blessing to see supportive and faithful members who participated in every aspect of the event, along with the 382 committed workers. For five days, the children were taught godly songs, Bible stories, memory verses, and were led to accept Jesus Christ as their Saviour. A total of 763 children received their DVBS graduation certificates. Through the week, there were 1,196 children and 415 young people and adults who got saved.

“SA KABANALAN NG DIYOS” Beata B. Agustin Sa kabanalan ng Diyos, nahayag ang aking kasalanan Ako’y nahatulang sa impyerno ang kahahantungan Tila wala akong pag-asang makaabot sa Kanyang kaluwalhatian… Salamat sa pag-ibig ng Panginoong umabot sa aking kalagayan Iniligtas Niya ako’t binihisan sa Kanyang kabanalan ng katubusan. Sa kabanalan ng Diyos, nakikita ang aking kamunduhan Ako’y nahihila ng gawaing salat sa kabuluhan Tila wala akong lakas iwasan ang kalayawan… Salamat sa kapangyarihan ng Panginoong umaawat sa aking kalikuan Itinatayo Niya ako’t pinalalakad sa Kanyang kabanalan ng katuwiran. Sa kabanalan ng Diyos, nababatid ang aking kahibangan Ako’y nadadaig ng pita ng aking laman at sariling kaalaman Tila wala akong kakayahang labanan ang kayabangan… Salamat sa katotohanan ng Panginoong umaayos sa aking kapalaluan Itinutuwid Niya ako’t hinahatak sa Kanyang kabanalan ng kapakumbabaan. Sa kabanalan ng Diyos, nasisinag ang aking kasakiman Ako’y nabubulag sa bighani ng pansamantalang kaluguran Tila wala akong pagod sa paghahanap ng makalupang kayamanan… Salamat sa biyaya ng Panginoong umuunawa sa aking kakulangan Inaalalayan Niya ako’t inilalapit sa Kanyang kabanalan ng kasapatan.

Sa kabanalan ng Diyos, natutunghayan aking kasamaan Ako’y natutuksong magkaroon ng maling kaisipan Tila wala akong kabaitang manalanging may kasigasigan… Salamat sa awa ng Panginoong umaapaw sa kahinahunan Ibinubukod Niya ako’t hinuhubog sa Kanyang kabanalan ng kabutihan. Sa kabanalan ng Diyos, nasasaksihan aking katamaran Ako’y napapaanod sa agos ng kapabayaan Tila wala akong pagsisikap pigilan ang aking kabatugan… Salamat sa Salita ng Panginoong umiinog sa dakilang katuruan… Iwinawasto Niya ako’t hinahasa sa Kanyang kabanalan ng kasipagan. Sa kabanalan ng Diyos, nalalaman aking kahinaan Ako’y nauupos sa gitna ng pagsubok at kahirapan Tila wala akong pananampalatayang magpatuloy sa gitna ng kapagalan Salamat sa tulong ng Panginoong umaagapay sa aking kapansanan… Itinatatag Niya ako’t pinagpapala sa Kanyang kabanalan ng katapatan.

Ayon sa Biblia, Iisa Lamang ang Daan Patungong Langit!

ng 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 impierno. Magtiwala ka kay Hesus ngayon! (Roma 6:23) “Kung ipahahayag ng iyong bibig na si Hesus ay Panginoon at mananam-palataya 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 3:10 2. Talikuran mo ang iyong mga kasalanan (magsisi). Gawa 17:30 3. Manampalataya ka na si Kristo Hesus ay namatay para sa iyo, nalibing at nabuhay namagmuli. Roma 10:9-10 4. 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 ang dugo ni Hesus at Siya ay namatay sa krus para sa akin. Tinatalikuran ko na po ang 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.
