FIFA WORLD FOOTBALL CUP 2014 IN BRAZIL

This is short note to say that 65% of brazilians do not wish this Cup to happen.

Over 15 billion US Dolars should be spent on this Cup in Brazil, which is entirely unacceptable. We do not have enough hospitals, good roads, good public schools, social welfare etc.

There will certainly be riots and people all over the country protesting against this stupid Cup.

Beware! Dot not come to Brazil during June and July 2014. It is NOT safe at all.

HELP ME TO HELP CHRISTIANS IN PAKISTAN!

"Now he who supplies seed to the sower and bread for food will also supply and increase your store of seed and will enlarge the harvest of your righteousness" (2 Corinthians 9.10). 

I wish to thank - here and now - all my financial supporters! They are just a few, but very faithful indeed. The donations have made me possible to help three entities in Fortaleza City, northern Brazil, and another orphanage in Pakistan.

Over one year, our Ministry has been sending donations to a christian orphanage in Pakistan.. You can imagine how hard it is to be a christian in a country (Pakistan) where our sisters and brothers are literally executed (shot dead or exploded) by radical muslins(!!!).  Also, you can imagine how hard it is for us to receive donations on brazilian currency (reais R$) convert them into USDollars and send them all over to Pakistan!

Read the report on this link and think it over (then help!) http://www.rferl.org/content/pakistan-peshawar-explosion-deaths/25113786.html This tragedy happened last September-2013. We are weekly in touch with our brethren in Pakistan. From time to time, we preach to the orphanage via SKYPE. We preach in English and it is translated it into Urdu, language spoken in Pakistan.

Will you help us? You can send us donation via PAYPAL or credit cards. Please inform us of your donation, so we might include your name on our daily list of prayers.

It is very, very easy to be a believer in Christ in a country where there is liberty. Think about sisters and brothers on those countries (like Pakistan) where liberty is still a dream!

Awaiting to hear from you soonest. God bless you and family, today and ever!

"Let my supplication come before You: deliver me according to your word" (Psalm 119.70).

Usually, we request much more than we thank God for the things we have. We require, request, claim and shout out for more. Yet, we fail to thank God for what we are and - very importantly - for what we have until today.

We all have lots and lots of wishes to fulfill. Some are legitimate; some are not. Heavens have been bombed  by supplications, which might be heard and attended according to the willingness of God.

The point is this: supplications must be directed to the right person (Jesus of Nazareth) and not to any other intermediate person and/or thing. It is of utmost importance to know the word of God (Bible). Much more than just "getting to know the Bible", is to live it into actions which please God. Supplications made to the wrong person will not have a positive response - never, ever!

Deliverances happen every single day. God is faithful and takes care of his flock-people.

Let's say simple prayer: God, I thank you for another day in my life. Thanks for all deliverances. Protect my family and I, today and ever. Oh, very important: remember and take care of all my friends, even those who have forgotten me. Amen.

"Anyone who is joined to Christ is a new being; the old is gone; the new has come" (2 Cor 5.17)

At times, we are centered in ourselves, in our high and self-conceit, in our arrogance. At times, we keep exclusively criticising others, without even acknowledging the virtues & values on them. We fail  to see the talents on people around us. This happens very often, indeed.

At times,we are focused on materialism; on money which usually extinguishes our spirituality. I feel, deep inside, that Shakespeare was wrong when he said: to be or not to be! That is not the point, at all, in my understanding! The world looks at us with a staggering question: to have or not to have!?

1. One might claim to be christian; yet not to live like one;
2. One might claim to be christian; yet keep "living" in the past;
3. One might claim to be christian; yet act like a gentile.

If, indeed, anyone is joined to Christ, then:

1. The past-life is just a mere reference; the present time actually matters;
2. The feeling of  "ever-missing" should not dictate the life of today;
3. The future is just around the corner! Let's all act and run, while there is time.

People say that a real tragedy anyone might face is not - repeat is not to age, to get older. The real tragedy is to "age the mind", hence a lot of bad and sad things start happening....

I must put an end to this text! Thus, let me remind my dear reader: join Christ while there is time enough for you. Needless to say the world is divided: before Christ and after Christ. Yet, you may be united here and now, to the ruler of the universe: Jesus Christ.

"As for me, I am poor and needy, yet the Lord takes thought and plans for me" (Psalm 40.17a). Verily, since the creation of the earth, money was created by the mankind, in many ways, and colours, and values, for the good and/or for the bad of all. The truth is the money is nothing but a "creation". The values stated on the paper and/or in the coin, are accepted by all, without hesitation. The same paper produces a 10 dollar-bill or even a 100 dollar-bill. Again: the paper is the same; the values are not! Our own relationship with the money "says" much about ourselves. Jesus declared that we must give to Ceasar what belongs to him and give to Jesus what belongs to Him. I know a bunch of rich people here in town. All they have is this: money; but not principles, but not moral, but not values - a real shame! Indeed, we ought to know who is the Lord in our own lives! In the Bible, believers were mostly poor people; yet extremely rich in goodness, in principles, in moral, in sharing love with one another. In fact, it is of utmost importance to be and not to have! On my own, I am still a poor and needy soul. The Lord takes thought and plans for me, always. Nobody can serve two masters: God and money!

"Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded" (James 4.8).

We have reached April 8th, 2013. Only today I had time to do this posting.

Most people think that God is always ready to protect us from anything. This is not true, at all.

After all, He is love, but also justice. His holiness does not tolerate sinfulness. The opportunities for our conversion are present everywhere - but who actually wishes a real change? For sure, better it is to keep thinking that He is always there and here, for He loves us all.

The word is extremely clear: we must come near to God, so that He might come near to us. This action requires a purification of mind and heart - and hands. Double-minded people will face difficulties in receiving blessings from Almighty. Well, so what to do, pastor? Try this:

1. Acknowldge yourself as a sinner (a big one!);
2. Cry out for the forgiveness of your sins;
3. Purify your heart and hands;
4. Make a "deal": start changing today, right now;
5. Come near to God, while there is time enough.

After this "five-step operation", you should start a new life, for you are a new creature.

April-2013 is moving onwards... Come near to God!
