†Hero to Zero†

TO











Hey, today in church, Pastor Calvin shared about being from HERO to ZERO...
It is totally the opposite of what Darren shared previously which is being from ZERO to HERO...

Sometimes, we tend to think that we are okay in our relationship with God, and to just keep thinking that,
"Oh well, i read the bible. I hear Christian songs all the time and i go to church. So i guess my relationship with Him is totally flawless".
Then we will continue doing what is already a routine for us like Time Alone With God without really seeking Him with a passionate and humble heart or the hungriness for His word as well as to be still and sensitive of His presence. *Something like a zombie to me.*

When you have reached to this state of thinking like this, then thats the time when you have to be careful!
That's the time when the roller coaster you are sitting on is preparing to drop down.


So that's why God had told us through the Word and warned us.

[Romans 15:4]
For everything that was written in the past was written to teach us,
so that through endurance and the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.

[1 Corinthians 10:11-12]
11These things happened to them as examples and were written down as warnings for us,
on whom the fulfillment of the ages has come. 12So, if you think you are standing firm,
be careful that you don't fall!

Besides that, he talked about disobedience.
The feeling of "Want to start everything on your own" shall not be there but to depend on God.

Like here, King Saul did not follow what is commanded by the Lord.
He made too many excuses in following them.
Like here, in 1 Samuel 15, he made his soldiers as part of the excuse to bring back the best sheep, cattle for sacrifice and also Agag the King while the Lord had already clearly said that He wants everything destroyed.
In the end, he was striped off from becoming King of Israel.

Here are two verses
[Proverbs 28:13]
He who conceals his sins does not prosper,
but whoever confesses and renounces them finds mercy.

[Romans 12:2]

2Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.

May all of us be obedient towards our Big Daddy up there!

I hope i didn't hear or remember the wrong thing!=)
