I attended Sunday service yesterday at Victory Greenhills and our Pastor delivered a timely and meaningful message entitled “God in the midst of the storm“. It was definitely one of the most emotional services I’ve been to and I really felt blessed after attending. In the message, Pastor Dennis shared with us a few verses of what God said to a nation that was flooded. I believe that this is the same message that is meant for us as a country. It even touches on the upcoming 2010 elections which is just around the corner. It’s really relevant to the Philippines and it just hits home. Every verse has so much meaning and I want to do my part by spreading this so that everyone can read it.
Is. 54:11 “O storm-battered city, troubled and desolate! I will rebuild you with precious jewels and make your foundations from lapis lazuli.
Is. 54:12 I will make your towers of sparkling rubies, your gates of shining gems, and your walls of precious stones.
Is. 54:14 You will be secure under a government that is just and fair. Your enemies will stay far away. You will live in peace, and terror will not come near.
Is. 55:10 “The rain and snow come down from the heavens and stay on the ground to water the earth.
They cause the grain to grow, producing seed for the farmer and bread for the hungry.Is. 55:11 It is the same with my word. I send it out, and it always produces fruit. It will accomplish all I want it to, and it will prosper everywhere I send it.
What really struck me from the verse is Is. 54:14 (text in bold above). This underscores how important the upcoming 2010 elections are for us as a nation. We all have to participate because we are ultimately responsible for the leaders that we get. If you don’t vote, then you really have no right to complain at all. I challenge all of you to be part of the solution.
Ladies and gentlemen, REGISTER and VOTE.
Let’s all continue to pray for God’s blessing, protection, and grace as we move forward after Ondoy. At the same time let’s also ask for wisdom so that we will be able to distinguish who the right leader is for our country.
