Title: God's Gift an Instrument to Show God's Loving-Favor

Bible Passage: 1 Peter 4:10 (NLV)
God has given each of you a gift. Use it to help each other. This will show God’s loving-favor. 

Message: Your gift/talent that you received from God is not just for you, but it is also for others to show to them God's favor. You couldn't say, 'I do not have any gift/talent' because it says on the bible that each of us has received gift/talent from God.

Conclusion: Use the gift/talent that God has given to us.
Title: We Commit and Trust, He will Act!

Bible Passage: Psalm 37:5 (ESV)
Title: With All My Heart

Bible Passage: Matthew 22:37
And He said to him, "'YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART, AND WITH ALL YOUR SOUL, AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND.'

Message:  The Bible says that we SHALL Love the Lord our God with all our heart, soul and mind. I made an internet research about the word "Shall", I've found out that this word is a requirement. If we believe in Christ Jesus, we are required to Love Him with ALL our heart, soul and mind. But how do we love God? Simply, live our lives that pleases Him.

Conclusion: As we accept Christ Jesus, we have an obligation, and that is to Love Him with all our heart, soul and mind.
Title: For What Do You Come to Church?

Bible Passage: Matthew 21:12-13
12 Jesus went into the temple and chased out everyone who was selling or buying. He turned over the tables of the moneychangers and the benches of the ones who were selling doves. 13 He told them, “The Scriptures say, ‘My house should be called a place of worship.’ But you have turned it into a place where robbers hide.”

Message: I remember this question "WHAT ON EARTH AM I HERE FOR ?"from the book 'Purpose Driven Life' by Rick Warren, I hope you remember this, too. How 'bout this question, "WHAT ON CHURCH AM I HERE FOR?" Do you really know why do you come to church every sunday? This question has four (4) answers, and that is
1. To Worship- because this a place of worship
2. To Grow- in God's Word
3. To Serve- by winning
4. To Give - our talents, money, time

Conclusion: We are here on the church to Worship God, to Grow in His Word, to Serve by winning, and to Give our talents, money and time.
Title: He Never Fails!

Bible Passage: Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. (Hebrews 13:8 NASB)


Message:  God is the same yesterday, today and forever with His Love, Word and Promises. He is the same God whom my grandparents know and worship. He never fails my grandparents. I believe He also never fails me even I fail Him always. Here's an inspiring song about Jesus Love that never fails.  "Your Love Never Fails by Jesus Culture".  Here's the complete lyrics.


===
Nothing can separate
Even if I ran away
Your love never fails

I know I still make mistakes
But You have new mercies for me everyday
Your love never fails

Chorus:
You stay the same through the ages
Your love never changes
There may be pain in the night but joy comes in the morning
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/j/jesus_culture/your_love_never_fails.html ]
And when the oceans rage
I don't have to be afraid
Because I know that You love me
Your love never fails

Verse 2:
The wind is strong and the water's deep
But I'm not alone here in these open seas
Cause Your love never fails

The chasm is far too wide
I never thought I'd reach the other side
But Your love never fails

Bridge:
You make all things work together for my good

===

Conclusion: He is the same. His love never fails. His word never fails. His promises never fails. He never fails us!

Music and Its Power! RVillacorta Devotion

Title: Music and its Power!

Bible Passage: Colossians 3:15 Good News Translation (GNT)
15 The peace that Christ gives is to guide you in the decisions you make; for it is to this peace that God has called you together in the one body. And be thankful. 16 Christ's message in all its richness must live in your hearts. Teach and instruct one another with all wisdom. Sing psalms, hymns, and sacred songs; sing to God with thanksgiving in your hearts

Message: God wants us to use music as an instrument or tool to strengthen ourselves and encourage others (Jeff Strite). Music has the *power to communicate ...**power to inspire ...and ***power to change. When I'm playing love songs, I felt in-love and keep smiling especially when the song playing is "Ngiti". It inspires and look back when I first sing this song to my girl friend. Although this is not our theme song :) When I'm playing christian song entitled, All for love by Planetshakers, my hands and my feet are also moving like I was the one drumming the song. I also tried listening to the controversial song "Judas" by Lady Gaga, and to be true, my head aches and I felt weak that time. My officemate felt the same. There's something bad on that song. That's why I never listen to that song again.

Conclusion: Choose music that has the good message not just with a good melody or tone. What we are playing (music) on our computers, mobile phone and any gadgets could retain its message on our mind.
