Each Day brings Choices, Making Choices can Change our Future, may We choose Wisely with God’s Help.

,

We make so many choices every day. Some choices are pretty ordinary and have no significant impact to our “future” direction, like whether we  want to write or post commonplace, unexceptional stuff to a chat group or social media.

Making critical choices involve decision-making that necessitate the systematically gathering and evaluating of accurate information in order to make informed decisions or good choices. It entails discarding old filters that had worn-out or lenses that are no longer in focus and look for the correct information, then strategically think through the choices available in order to come to the best possible option given the situation.

Good choices are decisions that do help us to head in the right direction in life.

There are certain choices  that affect our future and eternal destiny and it would ultimately be most important for us to choose wisely based on the revelation of our Creator to us.

Our time on planet 🌏 is pivotal for it is while we are alive on earth that we can make a choice that has the greatest consequence for our future destiny – whether we will be in heaven with God or be with the devil and his angels in the lake of fire for all eternity – that’s how crucially significant it is for us.

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.” John‬ ‭3:16-19‬ ‭

Jesus said:

“Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:”
‭‭Matthew‬ ‭25:41‬ ‭

“And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.”
‭‭Matthew‬ ‭25:46‬ ‭

God tells us in no uncertain terms:

“….the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.”
‭‭Revelation‬ ‭20:12-15‬ ‭

“the same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: and the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name. And I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Write, Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth: Yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labours; and their works do follow them.”
‭‭Revelation‬ ‭14:10-11, 13‬ ‭

 

 

 

Let the past go, it is Gone, TREASURE today and Take the RIGHT ACTION. ~ Cheong Kok Weng

The past is past and is over, and you don’t live there anymore.

Learn the lessons through the lenses of what had been the bygones and Let Go to move forward unhindered.

The future is yet to be.

So do appreciate and treasure this very moment as it will move inexorably to be in the past soon, and do take the necessary action now, today. Right action taken today will lead to a better tomorrow.

“This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.” Psalm 118:24

 “Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,” Philippians 3:13

Truth is truth, and a lie is a lie, irrespective of who says it. ~ Cheong Kok Weng

Truths are truths, and lies are lies,  irrespective of who says it.  ~ Cheong Kok Weng

God is truth. It is an ontological way to refer to truth as one of God’s moral attributes.

It means truth flows out of God’s very nature and extends beyond Him being truthful to declaring that truth itself find its very source in His nature.

“Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”
‭‭John‬ ‭14:6‬

“That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for God to lie, ..”
‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭6:18‬ a

Heaven is Real – the reward of heaven.

Heaven,

is very REAL.

“But it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.

Corinthians 2:9

The Reward of Heaven , David Pawson underlining some of what God had said through His revealed word. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tyHwjzFgfbU

 

“But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.”

1 Corinthians 2:9

The Bible’s descriptions of heaven. They were robust, alive, and action-filled. Heaven had precious stones, fruit trees, and a river among others.

“And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.”

Revelation 21:4

“And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.

In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.

And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him:

And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads.

And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they shall reign for ever and ever. “

Revelation 22:1-5

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,

To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you,”  1 Peter 1:3-4

 

Hell,

is very real

The infinite horror  and torment of hell.

Jesus’ teachings on the subject of hell, clearly and biblically explained by David Pawson, with uncompromising faithfulness to the Scriptures.

Part 2

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JfLPU94Cqfc

A critically serious subject for all of us to pay great attention to, because Jesus has talked about hell and the fate that awaits all people apart from him.

We are all guilty of sinning against God, who is absolutely Holy, Righteous and Awesome, and deserve God’s eternal punishment.

So we’re left with two choices: stay in our state of depravity in sin and be eternally punished, or submit to the Saviour, repent and accept His gift of redemption and salvation.
We cannot earn our salvation by our works. It is by the grace of God and through faith in Jesus that we may be saved.

Jesus warned against the absolute reality of hell, the concept of endless torment and described it in great detail.

Jesus said
– it is a place of torment (Luke 16:23),
– everlasting punishment (Matt 25:46)
– cast into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched:” (Mark‬ ‭9:43‬)
– Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.” (Mark‬ ‭9:44‬)
– everlasting fire (Matt 25:41),
– And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth. (Matt 13:42‬)

A very sound investment of your time if you do want to hear something that is very important to your soul – and with “irrefragable explanation or arguments” in relation to some of your questions or doubts, and which you may want to have better clarity.

 

 

We can Daily Conquer Anew – New day, fresh start, renewed focus – thank God for the new day. ~ Cheong Kok Weng

Thank God for the opportunity to make each day count (not just counting the days) at the beginning of a fresh new day, presented to us by our Creator.

God gave us the free choice to decide and set our direction daily.

May we welcome each new day and seize the day; set the direction right, recalibrate as needed – Coram Deo carpe diem and conquer afresh daily.

 

“Humoural Immunity” – Humour contributes to a merry heart.

There is a healing effect in cheerfulness, being glad and joyful.

“A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones.” Proverbs 17:22

“This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.” Psalm 118:24

 

The positive things about good sense of humour and laughter – it helps to enhance the immune system as opposed to stress. It improves your mood and personal satisfaction.

However it is not right to laugh at the expense of others or having forms of humour that are inappropriate – those that are bad or hurtful ones.

 

😂😂

Serious stuff in the midst of some humour.  Gates contributing to the good of society…

 

Humans are Wonderfully Creative.

Man is creative.

Humans are creative beings. Creativity involves thinking,  the producing and turning fresh, imaginative and resourceful  ideas into reality.

Humans may learn to improve his or her creativity by acquiring knowledge, culturing discipline and thinking skills – the courage to experiment, explore, questioning suppositions, using imagination and synthesizing information aid the process.

Human is inquisitive.

Humans make important discovery of the ‘everyday things’ of the world he lives in. The characteristics and the exact behaviour of the properties of materials bear testimony to a Creator behind it all.

 

Man is intelligent.

So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.”  Genesis 1:27

Man is made in the image of God; what does this mean in practical terms? God is a Spirit and man is made from dust so it cannot be in reference to man’s biological body.
In the image of God means, man is endues with some of the Godlike attributes; intelligence, creativity, love, sense of justice, immortality (man’s soul is eternal) and freedom, among others – thereby separating and making man different from the beasts.

“God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.” John 4:24

“And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.” Genesis 2:7

Humans are funny 😅😝.

“But the fact that some geniuses were laughed at does not imply that all who are laughed at are geniuses. They laughed at Columbus, they laughed at Fulton, they laughed at the Wright Brothers. But they also laughed at Bozo the Clown.”

– Carl Sagan

 

“Laughing at our mistakes can lengthen our own life. Laughing at someone else’s can shorten it.”

– Cullen Hightower

 

“If you can’t live without me, why aren’t you dead already?”

“Analyzing humor is like dissecting a frog. Few people are interested and the frog dies of it.”
