How wonderful it is to praise God

Worship time during last year's international conference at New Jerusalem International Church in Örebro

Stand upon the Rock

Exodus 33: 21 And the LORD said, Behold, there is a place by me, and thou shalt stand upon a rock: 22 And it shall come to pass, while my glory passeth by, that I will put thee in a clift of the rock, and will cover thee with my hand while I pass by: 23 And I will take away mine hand, and thou shalt see my back parts: but my face shall not be seen. Like Moses, we want to see the glory of God manifested in our lives. God didn’t show his glory to Moses but He asked Moses to stand on a rock by the side of God. The rock is the image of Christ ( 1 corinthians 10:4 ). When we stand on the Rock, the glory of God will pass us by and the hand of God will cover us and protect us against every evil. When we stand and build our lives on the Rock, we will stand firm even in the time of troubles and storms ( Luke 6:48 ) When we stand on the Rock, streams of living water will flow from our bellies and the grace of God will be sufficient to us. David wrote in Psalm 62: “1 Truly my soul waiteth upo...

Choosing your life’s partner: a challenging but possible decision

Life is full of choices and decisions to take. Some decisions and choices are easy to take than others. For example, the choice of what clothes to wear is not as difficult or important as the choice of what program to study at the university or the choice of where to work. The decisions we make can dictate the steps we take in the future; steps to a glorious future with God, or steps to destructive future. The greatest and most challenging part in decision’s making lays in the hand of the one who decides. Some decisions need to be taken seriously. To choose a life’s partner (husband or wife) needs a lot of precautions, because as an old expression in my own language says: “He who misses a good wife (or partner) misses his riches” and the Bible says in Pro 18:22 “Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the LORD”. The Bible gives us some criteria that everyone who wants to have a life’s partner should think about. Genesis 24 talks about how Abrah...

TODAY'S MESSAGE!! SON OF MAN,CAN THESE BONES LIVE?

Image
The hand of the LORD was upon me, and carried me out in the spirit of the LORD, and set me down in the midst of the valley which [was] full of bones, And caused me to pass by them round about: and, behold, [there were] very many in the open valley; and, lo, [they were] very dry. And he said unto me, Son of man, can these bones live? And I answered, O Lord GOD, thou knowest. EZE 37:1-3) I sense the anointing of the Holy Ghost right now! Son of Man; Man/woman of God, Can these bones live? The challenge of God to a faithless generation. God is leading this generation to the Valley of dry bones as the world is threaten by innumerable woes; despair, frustration, misery, and death, etc; the question reverberates; CAN THESE BONES LIVE? Can there be a move of God that literally transform towns, cities and nations? Can our cities and nations be made free from the curse of homosexuality, corruption, drugs and all the heinous crimes that ravages the world today? Can God use us in this generation ...

The hope and the inheritance of our salvation

Eph 1:18 " The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints," This morning I waked up thinking about heaven. Heaven will be great: there will be no more sorrow, no more pain, no more sickness, etc.... BUt as long as we live on this earth, we will have to face many tribulations and problems. But what will make us strong is not only to know that God is with us, but we need also to fix our eyes in the things ahead,i.e. heaven ( the New jerusalem where the righteous will dwell). Fot this last reason, we need to be aware of the promises of God an,d as Paul writes in Ephesians 1:18, there is a hope attached to God's calling and an inheritance He reserved for the saints. But there are some important points we need to follow so that we can inherit the riches of his glory: 1. Accepting Christ in our life Jesus is the way to heaven and the key to get our inherita...

Parole Vivante - Living Word: Do you want a big catch? Go into deep water

You are a planting of the Lord

2Sa 13:17-19 17 He called his personal servant and said, “Get this woman out of my sight and bolt the door after her.” 18 So his servant put her out and bolted the door after her. She was wearing an ornate robe, for this was the kind of garment the virgin daughters of the king wore. 19 Tamar put ashes on her head and tore the ornate robe she was wearing. She put her hands on her head and went away, weeping aloud as she went. Then he called his servant that ministered unto him, and said, Put now this woman out from me, and bolt the door after her. The story is about two of King David's children (Amnon and Tamar) When Amnon had finished to rape his sister Tamar, he hated her more than how he loved her (In fact he didn't love her, he had lust concerning her. Love is patient and kind.) The most important thing to learn in this story is how a simple act can destroy a life of somebody. Tamar followed all things the jewish culture asked her to do. She kept herself virgin for the one...
