Death is Among us!

My blog is call "My Life" because I like to talk about my personal life and teach about God.
As every body know, there had been so many death in the Hollywood industry, that makes you wonder, maybe God had had enough! and He is sending a message to all of us, that no one is eternal, that our lives are just small vapor in this earth, and that we need to be aware that our lives can end in matter of seconds. DO YOU KNOW WHERE YOU WILL BE SPENDING ETERNITY? DO YOU KNOW WHERE YOU ARE GOING AFTER YOU DIE?










I want to talk a little bit about the death of Michael Jackson. I want to start by saying that he is God's child, God loves him the same way He loves you and the same way He loves me.
I just hope that Michael made peace with our Jesus before he die. I hope that he is in Heaven delighting God with his voice.
I remember in the early '70, my neighbors and I were learning to dance like The Jackson Five. I was very young but since then I was one of the many people who admired Michael's talents.
I never agree with the changes he did to his body, and the wrong decisions he made in his life, but hopefully he repented of all that! and hopefully he is resting in peace, the peace he never had in this world, the peace his dad deprived him from.
Yesterday he found peace with his one and only Dad, our Lord and savior Jesus Christ.

We Christians have to have compassion for all the lost souls out there, we have to pray for them, that they might come to the Lord, we can't never give up because our responsibility is to ministry to others, this what God has command us to do.
How many times have you stop someone and share the good news about Jesus?
Why is it that we profess to love God and speak very godly with other Christians, but we never want to talk to some else out side our churches about Jesus?
It is very comfortable to stay in our little circle and not help someone who might be in danger of going to hell.
We need to get up and learn God's word to be equip to evangelize others, and always evangelize with kindness and compassion.

Matthew 28:18
And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, "All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth.

Matthew 28:19
Go therefore [fn] and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.

Mark 16:15
And He [Jesus] said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.

Mark 16:20
And they went out and preached everywhere, the Lord working with [them] and confirming the word through the accompanying signs. Amen.

Learning how to Forgive

Unforgiveness is the Root of Hate
Most of the time we don't recognize the unforgiveness that is in us.
When we first become Christians, we are full of joy, and because "forgiveness" is a big part of being Christians, we think we are forgiving our enemies or someone who has done wrong to us.
But we aren't. If we don't ask God to reveal our unforgiveness to us, we might never get free of those chains that keep us in bondage, if we don't ask.
The only way we can make sure our lives are right before God, has to do with forgiving other people. We can never win the Kingdom of Heaven and have God in our lives completely if we have an unforgiven heart.
If you ask God to reveal who is the one that you need to forgive, He will.
When I first became Christian, I never thought that I needed to forgive my parents.
In my culture and in the Catholic church, you don't have the need to forgive your parents, because they have never done wrong to you; Haven't they???
I was attending a new church in Van Nuys, Ca. I took a course there; it was call "Free indeed"
here they helped you to identify the hurt of the past, the pain that is hidden with in your heart, the unforgiveness of your heart. It is amazing how God reveled all hidden things when you ask for...God knows your heart and He wants you to be free...He wants you to come to Him white as snow. Only repentance and forgiveness will let you come to God.
Well, here is where I found out; the hate and anger that I was storing in my heart, something that I never knew I had. God showed me the specific things that my parents did to me, the ones that I hated the most (I didn't even know that I had hate against my parents) by asking God was the only way I was able to identified the problem and with that came the realization that I had issues with my parents. This was the only way I was able to forgive my parents, I knew exactly what to forgive them for. I love my parents so dearly and I thank God for keeping them in this world with me all this time.

Deuteronomy 5:16
'Honor your father and your mother, as the LORD your God has commanded you, that your days may be long, and that it may be well with you in the land which the LORD your God is giving you.

We have to start our forgiveness with our families, because those the people we are with the most, the ones who know us the best and they are the ones who can hurt us the most.But for these very same reasons, unforgiveness toward one of them can bring the biggest devastation to our lives. That's way forgiveness must start at home.

1 John 3:15
Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him.

Mark 11:25
"And whenever you stand praying, if you have anything against anyone, forgive him, that your Father in heaven may also forgive you your trespasses.

Unforgiveness is the root of hate. When we entertain unforgiven thoughts, they turn to hate inside of us. This is a big load we carry everywhere we go, and people can see it because it shows in the face, words and actions, we become sick, weak and bitter.
It is up to us to choose to forgive or hate. Forgiving will benefit our walk with God, and will benefit the people we choose to forgive.

When we forgive someone doesn't mean that that's the end of it, we are humans and humans are creatures of habits, that means that it is not easy for people to change the way they are; so we are the ones who need to have the spirit of discernment to know when forgiveness is need it

Matthew 18:21-22
21Then Peter came to Him and said, "Lord, how often shall my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? Up to seven times?"
22Jesus said to him, "I do not say to you, up to seven times, but up to seventy times seven.

I'm still working in my forgiveness, this should be a daily prayer for us...
God, please reveal to me who are the people that need forgiveness from me. I don't want to carry this load on my shoulders. I want to be free, free indeed. I want you to soften my heart and make me a loving person towards others. I'm tired of entertaining unforgiven thoughts. I'm tired of the hate that is in my heart. I pray Lord that you will reveal all the things that are harming my unforgiven soul. And I pray that after you reveal all these things, I'll be able to forgive and I'll be free, free indeed.
I pray all these thing in Jesus mighty name, Amen.

ASK GOD TO REVEAL, WHO IS THE PERSON THAT YOU NEED TO FORGIVE.

Life in the Last Days

This is what the Lord has put in my heart...there is a need for me to let people know that we need to take the Lord more seriously...the end is getting closer and closer and we as Christians need to be "Aware"

Matthew 24
Signs of the End of the Age

1Jesus left the temple and was walking away when his disciples came up to him to call his attention to its buildings. 2"Do you see all these things?" he asked. "I tell you the truth, not one stone here will be left on another; every one will be thrown down."

3As Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately. "Tell us," they said, "when will this happen, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?"
4Jesus answered: "Watch out that no one deceives you. 5For many will come in my name, claiming, 'I am the Christ,[a]' and will deceive many. 6You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. 7Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. 8All these are the beginning of birth pains.
9"Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me. 10At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, 11and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people. 12Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, 13but he who stands firm to the end will be saved. 14And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.

15"So when you see standing in the holy place 'the abomination that causes desolation,'[b] spoken of through the prophet Daniel—let the reader understand— 16then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains. 17Let no one on the roof of his house go down to take anything out of the house. 18Let no one in the field go back to get his cloak. 19How dreadful it will be in those days for pregnant women and nursing mothers! 20Pray that your flight will not take place in winter or on the Sabbath. 21For then there will be great distress, unequaled from the beginning of the world until now—and never to be equaled again. 22If those days had not been cut short, no one would survive, but for the sake of the elect those days will be shortened. 23At that time if anyone says to you, 'Look, here is the Christ!' or, 'There he is!' do not believe it. 24For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and miracles to deceive even the elect—if that were possible. 25See, I have told you ahead of time.
26"So if anyone tells you, 'There he is, out in the desert,' do not go out; or, 'Here he is, in the inner rooms,' do not believe it. 27For as lightning that comes from the east is visible even in the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. 28Wherever there is a carcass, there the vultures will gather.

29"Immediately after the distress of those days " 'the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from the sky, and the heavenly bodies will be shaken

30"At that time the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and all the nations of the earth will mourn. They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky, with power and great glory. 31And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other.

32 “Now learn this parable from the fig tree: When its branch has already become tender and puts forth leaves, you know that summer is near. 33 So you also, when you see all these things, know that it[d] is near—at the doors! 34 Assuredly, I say to you, this generation will by no means pass away till all these things take place. 35 Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away.
36 “But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven,[e] but My Father only. 37 But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. 38 For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, 39 and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. 40 Then two men will be in the field: one will be taken and the other left. 41 Two women will be grinding at the mill: one will be taken and the other left. 42 Watch therefore, for you do not know what hour[f] your Lord is coming. 43 But know this, that if the master of the house had known what hour the thief would come, he would have watched and not allowed his house to be broken into. 44 Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.

45 “Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his master made ruler over his household, to give them food in due season? 46 Blessed is that servant whom his master, when he comes, will find so doing. 47 Assuredly, I say to you that he will make him ruler over all his goods. 48 But if that evil servant says in his heart, ‘My master is delaying his coming,’ [g] 49 and begins to beat his fellow servants, and to eat and drink with the drunkards, 50 the master of that servant will come on a day when he is not looking for him and at an hour that he is not aware of, 51 and will cut him in two and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites. There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

___________________________________________________________________

I study my self and what I see sometimes is not too pretty but I'm that type of Christians that doesn't give-up or gets discourage...because my God is a forgiving God and even so some people (very close to me) thinks that I'm an evil person because I don't like to "sugarcoated" the truth.

when I give advices to people...I want to be truthful...if I know that you are walking away from God and you come to me to ask for my advice "for sure I will tell you the truth" because one day we will be before God and we'll have to answer and account for our actions in this world and I don't want to tell God "well...I didn't want to offend my friend" guess what, now my friend is in hell because nobody had the courage to tell this "friend" how much he/she was sinning so this "friend" never knew the truth and because of that he/she never changed his/her ways.

I don't want to have that in my conscience.

Stop using God's words to suit your life and your sins.

Look at the Fruit of your life with an open heart and you will see where you stand in you relation ship with our Lord...Are you fruitful, Are you a dead tree? answer this to your self.

The End is coming...Stop trusting your self and trust our Lord!!!

Believe or not the Day is coming when we all be judge....
