Better Than Gold; Day279

1Pe 1:7  That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ:
1Pe 1:7  So that [the genuineness] of your faith may be tested, [your faith] which is infinitely more precious than the perishable gold which is tested and purified by fire. [This proving of your faith is intended] to redound to [your] praise and glory and honor when Jesus Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One) is revealed.

– Sin; Day278

2Co 5:21  For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.
2Co 5:21  For our sake He made Christ [virtually] to be sin Who knew no sin, so that in and through Him we might become [endued with, viewed as being in, and examples of] the righteousness of God [what we ought to be, approved and acceptable and in right relationship with Him, by His goodness].

Mat 5:12  Be glad and supremely joyful, for your reward in heaven is great (strong and intense), for in this same way people persecuted the prophets who were before you. [II Chron. 36:16.]

Forever Company; Day265

Isa 43:2  When you pass through the waters, I will be with you, and through the rivers, they will not overwhelm you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be burned or scorched, nor will the flame kindle upon you.
Full Chapter of Isaiah 43

Commentary by Barnes: Isa 43:2 –
When thou passest through the waters – This is a general promise, and means that whenever and wherever they should pass through water or fire, he would protect them. It had been true in their past history as a people; and the assurance is here given in order that they might be comforted in view of the calamities which they were then suffering in Babylon. Fire and water are often used in the Scriptures to denote calamity – the latter because it overwhelms; the former because it consumes; see Psa_69:1 – ‘The waters are come into my soul;’ also Psa_73:10; Psa_124:4-5; Psa_66:12 – ‘We went through fire and through water.’
I will be with thee – (Compare the note at Isa_41:10).
And through the rivers – Also expressive of calamity and danger – like attempting to ford deep and rapid streams.
They shall not overflow thee – As was the case with the Jordan when they crossed it under the guidance of Joshua, and a pathway was made for the armies of Israel.
When thou walkest through the fire – This is expressive of calamity and danger in general like passing through fire. Yet it had a literal fulfillment in the case of the three pious Jews who were cast by Nebuchadnezzar into the burning furnace Dan_3:25, Dan_3:27.
Neither shall the flame kindle upon thee – It shall not only not consume thee, but it shall hog even burn, or injure thee (see Dan_3:27). The Chaldee Paraphrase refers this verse to the passage through the Red Sea, and to the protection which God gave his people there. It is rendered, ‘In the beginning, when you passed through the Red Sea, my word was your aid. Pharaoh and Egypt, who were mighty like the waters of a river, were not able to prevail against you. And when thou didst go among a people who were formidable like fire, they could not prevail against you, and the kingdoms which were strong like flame could not consume you.’ It is, however, to be understood rather as a promise pertaining to the future; though the language is mainly derived, undoubtedly, from God’s protecting them in their perils in former times.

More Notes (if you are outside FB)

The Praise and Worship was great today.  As usual, my daughter Brittney was with me (without fail)(Britta and Brent still in the works).  I wish I started early in my Christian walk.  But then, during my early years, the movement of the Holy Spirit was not as visible as it is right now.  I like my daughter’s attitude towards going to church, I know that she have not fully understand the whole truth yet and every Sunday morning at 0845h, I always peek at her door if the light is on and she if is changing for church.  For countless times now, she always came out changed already and ready to go. I made it a habit not to ask her to come with me.  I want her to do it by herself and she’s been very positive in receiving heavenly encouragement every Sunday.  Later when we sat down in the car, I always throw this question at her “Are you going through the motion with me?”. … silence and then off we go.

Today was another great message we received at Celebration Church. You can watch Christine Caine through Livestream (select On Demand–> click the Sept 13 broadcast) . If you are bored and needed some encouragement or some life direction, the sermon she preached is for you. (Elie, please find time). Such a new revelation regarding risks and how we should handle it when it comes.  Another thing I learned today which coincided with my own principle is “going to places where there is no path”. What she meant is “step out from your comfort zone and take some risks”.  “Do the abnormal things in life”.  “Be different” . See myNotes.

Hmmmm… what can I do tomorrow?

All Weather
Every morning right after getting up, I normally start this devotional/schedule/journal in that order.  I am smart (LEAN Smart), I am using a template and ‘no’ I don’t spend hours writing everyday, just a few minutes. I do meditate the daily Bible verses and always asked this question: “What do you mean Lord?” pertaining to the message of the day.  I can’t force you to follow my system of doing things but all I can say here is ‘this system works’.  Map your day from 0000-2400 (hourly) and plug-in the things that you want to do/accomplish and you will be amazed how many things are completed by the end of the day.  Try it.

At 1800h, I was scheduled to mow my yard and spend 1 hour on the task.  Then at halfway point, heavy rain started pouring (i mean heavy rain). Since I wrote it in my schedule, I told myself “I will finish this task even if there is a flood”….. and I did.  How I wish I can impart that mindset to all my friends and family.  Life is not that hard to live.  PLAN, DO, STUDY, ACT.

Regard to all.

Song of the Week – You Are Lord of Everything 

You are Lord, You are Lord
You are Lord of everything,
Jesus, You’re Lord of everything.

You are righteous and holy,
full of mercy and truth,
Jesus, You’re Lord of everything.
Cover me with the blood from Calvary,
give me eyes of faith so I can see;
All that’s in my heart I give to You,
for only by Your grace can I make it through.

Hold Fast->Confession; Day259; Thank You!

Heb 4:14  Having then a great high priest, who hath passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession.
Heb 4:15  For we have not a high priest that cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but one that hath been in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.
Heb 4:16  Let us therefore draw near with boldness unto the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy, and may find grace to help us in time of need.
Hebrews Chapter4 

Lord, Thank you for everything.  I will hold fast.

Peace Requirements; Day257; LabVIEW Test Lab

2Co 13:11  Finally, brethren, farewell. Be perfected; be comforted; be of the same mind; live in peace: and the God of love and peace shall be with you.
2Co 13:11  Finally, brethren, farewell (rejoice)! Be strengthened (perfected, completed, made what you ought to be); be encouraged and consoled and comforted; be of the same [agreeable] mind one with another; live in peace, and [then] the God of love [Who is the Source of affection, goodwill, love, and benevolence toward men] and the Author and Promoter of peace will be with you.
2 Corinthians 13

Be perfected – aim towards perfection everyday, change a habit that will not contribute to a better YOU.
Be comforted – the Holy Spirit comforts, receive Him at every possible moment
Be of the same mind – agree with one another; don’t argue; avoid division; make up your mind and then stick to it; avoid double mindedness; if you have an open door, get in and take the first step.  If God already showed you the way, be of the same mind as Him, He gave it to you anyway.
Live in peace – at all times, choose peace.

My LabVIEW Test Lab
Every weekend before the end of the workweek, some of my co-workers asked me this question: “What are you doing this weekend?”  I always tell them “same old routines and nothing changed” yard work, household work, swim, bike, run, eat, sleep, working in my lab.  Right after I mentioned ‘working in the lab’, they all wonder “what lab?”.  Yes, I have science lab at home.  I’ve been trying to document the lab and it is still unfinished but here is the preliminary documentation setup.  It is operational but I haven’t fully utilized/explored its capabilities. If you are interested in exploring/experimenting digital electronics, please let me know so that we can get together and create/build some exciting projects.  As of right now, my only goal is purely “diagnostics”.  I want to find out a defective part by just plugging it in into my home made diagnostic kit (HMDK) ie. I have a dead DVD recorder that needs troubleshooting, this will be a good start.  In the meantime, read the links below if you are interested and let me know so that we can share ideas and resources.  I need a partner … who knows one day we can invent something.

“Creative minds never stop thinking”

It is 0922 in Texas, time for my 30mile bike ride, then 1K swim.  Be back in the cave in 3 hours.

Zero Worry; Day253; DIY Starbucks

Mat 6:31  Therefore do not worry and be anxious, saying, What are we going to have to eat? or, What are we going to have to drink? or, What are we going to have to wear?
Mat 6:32  For the Gentiles (heathen) wish for and crave and diligently seek all these things, and your heavenly Father knows well that you need them all.

image

I wanted to make my own latte at home and I don’t want to drive to Starbucks early in the morning and spend half a gallon of gas and then $3.00 something on a cup of coffee.  So last week, I did some little research about the subject “espresso making” and I’ve learned that making a latte is NRS (not rocket science).  If Starbucks can do it, you can do it! 

Total project cost = $87.00
Time to make a latte = <5 minutes
Break even point (Starbucks) = 29 cups
Glory to make your own espresso = priceless
Joy of making an espresso for the wife = 10.0 (highest), you should see her face on the first cup.

Praise and Worship Media Center

I’ve mentioned this link before and I will mention it again here because the Word for today is about Praise and Worship.  The backend of the media center is a W2003 virtual server running within Hyper-V (Windows 2008) of which the Sharepoint is also hosted. Personally, I think this is one of the most important project that I’ve ever done in my entire life but never received a much pushed to the public.  It’s been there since my dynip site started and it’s been running 24/7 since then (from home, before you tube even existed). This is only a test site but feel to to tune in.

Why build the Praise and Worship Media Center? 
–  I wanted to share my Praise and Worship music

Why I wanted to share my Praise and Worship music?
–  There is something about Praise and Worship.  1989, my first time of attending a different kind of church where they had a band up front (a full band) and the congregation were also singing and dancing as the band played.  I was 5 minutes late on my first trip to this church.  No one invited me except just the leading of the Holy Spirit. The name of the church was Maranatha Christian Fellowship and they held their Sunday service at the movie theater (Century21 at Mango ave.) I was skeptical/hesitant of going to this church because first I did not know anything about it and second no one is telling me about who they are , what they are and what they believe.  As I’ve said, I was 5 minutes late so the praise and worship service had already started and the people were already in full praise/worship mood.  The moment I stepped inside the theater, these are the words that came out from my mouth “I’ve been looking for this place for a long time” (I’ll never forget that statement), such a relief in my heart that I finally found a place that I’ve been looking for.  From that day onward, my life shifted into different gears and I never stopped.  Later, I realized that that day was my first day in the Kingdom of God here on earth.  It was the Praise and Worship that get me started in my walk with Christ

As a friend, I want to invite you to find a church that believes in Praise and Worship.  Go there, try it out and see what a great experience it is.  My prayer – is for you to experience the Glory of God.  If only I can spoon feed it for you, I will … but that is not how it works in the Kingdom.  Please, when you are led in your heart to go to a place, obey.  Keep walking until you are inside.  He is leading you in the right direction. This churches are all over the world.  It is a movement and there is no stopping.  It is called the movement of the Holy Spirit and it sweeping every corner of the world – one life at a time.

To all my friends who greeted me “happy birthday”, thank you all!  I am so grateful that I have friends.  I did not know I had more than 1 in my entire life.  I get alerted in my Treo whenever someone sends a message to my FB account and my inbox is now cluttered (in a good way) full of greetings.  I did not realize how good it feels to be greeted on your birthday especially from those that you never expected. 

Off topic: This song has a special place in my heart Rock of My Salvation . During my Day03 post my MI, I played this over and over until I cried and then the Holy Spirit comforted me.
