Sa Kabila Ng Bagyo...May Pag-Asa Ang Bayan Ko

Kalunos lunos ang sinapit ng ating maraming mga kababayan sa paghagupit ng bagyong Ondoy noong nakaraang Sabado (Sept. 26). Higit na apekatado ang mga naninirahan sa tabing ilog at baybay dagat. Sa ngayon, paparating na naman ang isang malakas na bagyo ayon sa weather forecast.

Naalala ko tuloy si Job sa Biblia. Ng siya ay dumaan sa pagsubok isang bagay ang nagdudulot ng katiyakan sa kanyang buhay at ito ay ang katiyakang sa bawat yugto ng kanyang buhay...KASAMA NIYA ANG DIYOS,

Dagdag pa dito ang pagkakaroon niya ng HEDGES OF PROTECTION SA KANYANG BUHAY mula sa Panginoon.

Ang kasalukuyang kaganapan sa ating bansa ay isang oportunidad at pagakakataon upang ang sambayanang Pilipino ay magbalik loob sa Diyos at hanapin ang kanyang pagsama sa ating buhay lalo na sa ating minamahal na bansang Pilipinas.

Ito'y isang pagkakataon din upang suriin ng bawat isa kung mayroon pa ba tayong HEDGES OF PROTECTION mula sa ating mapagmahal na Diyos. Kung ating matatandaan noong 2004 ay nagkaroon ng kalamidad sa ating karatig bansa sa Asia subalit hindi nakaranas nito ang Pilipinas. Ang aking tinutikoy ay ang Tsunami.

Mga giliw na bumabasa ng artikulong ito...panahon na para tayo'y gumising sa katotohanan.
MAGBALIK LOOB TAYO AT MAGPAKUMBABA SA PANGINOON AT HANAPIN ANG KANYANG MUKHA. UPANG KUNG MAGKAGAYON MAKAMIT NATIN ANG KANYANG PAGKALINGA AT MARANASAN NATING LAHAT ANG ISANG PINAGPALA, MAPAYAPA AT MAUNLAD NA BANSANG PILIPINAS SA LILIM NG PANGANGALAGA NG ATING MANLILIKHA.

GOD BLESS THE PHILIPPINES!!!

Luke 1:46-49

“My soul glorifies the Lord and my spirit rejoices in God my Saviour, for he has been mindful of the humble state of his servant. From now on all generations will call me blessed, for the Mighty One has done great things for me– holy is his name.

Ako Ay Para Para Sa Progreso At Sa Tunay Na Pagbabago! Ako Ay Para Kay Bro. Eddie

One thing that is necessary for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing.

I believe Bro.Eddie Villanueva is the most qualified person to become the president of our beloved country the Philippines.

Having been a former radical activist and intellectually communist with a passion to serve the poor masses of people, plus now his conversion to genuine Christianity and a messenger of the gospel…I bet…HE will be the best president that this nation will ever produce.

Come to think of what will happen , if He became the president of the Philippines? You know what will happen after his term is over???

He will go back as The Spiritual Leader of the Jesus Is Lord Church Worldwide. Whom do you think will believe His message if he become the worst president???

That’s why…I am For Bro. Eddie!!!

MAY PAG-ASA PA ANG BAYAN KONG MAHAL…SA PAGBANGON NG PILIPINAS KASAMA AKO NG BAGONG PILIPINAS BAGONG PILIPINO MOVEMENT!!!

Bro. Eddie Villanueva, His Qualifications To Be President Of The Philippines

This article was originally posted by: Jess Banaga

I think I had seen all types of Presidents in the Philippines: a genius like Ferdinand Marcos; a plain housewife in the person of Cory Aquino; a military man like Fidel Ramos; a popular artist like Joseph Estrada; and ofcourse an economist and harvard graduate like Glora Macapagal Arroyo. But nothing happened to our beloved country. To be fair, today, our country is now first honor when it comes to high percentage of poor citizenry at least in Asia. This is because of the worst performing president of them all – the latter. I think she’s genius when it comes to maneuvering government projects based on numerous projects that were investigated which until now, nothing happened. I can’t describe her to be honest. The legacy of her father – the late Diosdado Macapagal – has come to waste. And I am afraid she totally destroyed the name – Macapagal. No thanks to her husband – the father of all corrupt men and women in the Philippines – a perceived conclusion by some.So it’s now obvious that it is not purely what is in the head, but what is in the heart that matters most to make someone qualified to be president to help country great again.Let’s no go to the meat of this article: Bro. Eddie Villanueva, Presidentiable on 2010 Philippine National Elections.What makes Bro. Eddie qualified to be President at this crucial time of our history?Aside from being a Preacher and spiritual Director of Jesus Is Lord Church Worldwide Multi-Ministry, Bro. Eddie finished Economics from Philippine Polytechnic University (PUP), was a consistent academic scholar and was hired to teach even without his diploma. He taught his students economics and finance, management, cooperatives, political economy, love for country and the need for social transformation thru the philosophies of Marx, Lenin and Mao. However, when he had personal encounter with his Maker, his principles are still the same minus Marx, Lenin, and Mao but God is added in the equation.He was the longest sitting University Regent of Polytechnic University of the Philippines without receiving a single centavo for his services because he allotted it for scholarship funds of poor students. Bro. Eddie enrolled at the UP College of Law but did not finish because he was included in the most wanted list of the AFP during Martial Law. He is currently the host of “Diyos at Bayan” and “Jesus the Healer” programs being aired at ZOE11 and GMA7. Compare to all who declared their candidacy to the highest of office in the land, Bro. Eddie has the deepest understanding of the root causes of the problems of our country right now.Another important qualification of Bro. Eddie is his willingness to empower people. It is a testament that he knows very well the power of teamwork. That he can not do it alone. That he need the brightest men and women to work together for a common cause. His beliefs in the capability of Filipinos to rise above the current situation of our country is enormous. Bro. Eddie is very much keen in tapping all available talents regardless of religious affiliation or political attachment as long as the person passes the criteria to lead morally and intellectually. Many leaders – past or present – are claiming to be somebody who empowers people, but they failed or have a little successes mainly because of the weight that pulls them down we call it political baggage or debts.If we wholeheartedly try to look at the political landscape of our country today and reflect, money already started to influence the decision making of the electorate. It is reported that millions or close to billion pesos has been spent in political ads by some presidential aspirants. This money will play an important role on how a leader do business contracts for the government. It will be obvious, that these aspirants are doing political gambling. They will pour out money in the gambling table of election hoping to win and be in the position so that in the end, those money will comeback to their lap exponentially. It doesn’t need someone to have a doctorate degree to understand this.Bro. Eddie on the otherhand will offer a new kind of doing politics in our country. In fact, he already did it last 2004 elections and has been mimic in a way by President Obama last year 2008 during his campaign – Change we need. Pagbabago – the battlecry of the Filipino masses – will be heard again louder than before come 2010.Bro. Eddie Villanueva is the Founder of the Jesus Is Lord Church Multi-Ministry with chapters all over the country and in 45 different countries. The Bangon Pilipinas Movement also known now as Bagong Pilipinas Bagong Pilipino Movement will be his political party if he run again on 2010 Philippine National Elections.

May Pag-Asa Pa Ang Bayan Kong Mahal

Sa aking panonood sa aking paboritong himpilan ng telebisyon, na obserbahan ko na sa kasalukuyan may iba't ibang uri ng patalastas na ginagamit ang mga politiko para sila'y makita sa telebisyon sa bawat araw. Mistulang tagapagtanggol ng api, tsuper ng isang maliit na sasakyang pang kalye sa aking bayan, nagbibigay ng pag-asa at hanapbuhay, lingkod bayan na laban sa katiwalian at marami pang iba. Hay nako...malayo pa ang halalan ngunit dama ko na, na ito ay bunsod ng kanilang hangarin na maka sungkit sa pinaka mataas na posisyon ng bansa sa 2010.

Ang mga propagandista ay nag uulat ng mga nagawa at naipaglingkod ng gobyerno sa tao. Kanilang ipinangangalandakan ang trabaho na naibigay, pero hindi naman nabanggit ang nawalan ng trabaho at ang bilang ng walang trabaho sa bayan ko. Ngunit may pag asa pa nga ba ang ating bayang mahal? Sa kasalukuyan milyon ang pilipino na nakikipamayan sa ibang bansa upang maghanapbuhay at mabigyan ng magandang kinabukasan ang kanilang pamilya sa ating bansa.Ang tila baga aandap-andap na pangarap ng isang pinagpala, mapayapa at maunlad na bansa ay hindi imposibleng mapasa atin at maranasan sa ating kapanahunan. Ngayon pa lamang ating kilatising mabuti ang mga nag aalok ng kanilang paglilingkod.

Sa ganang aking sarili lamang...ang isang tunay na lingkod bayan ay hindi masususukat sa nagawa para sa nakinabang na iilan sa halip ang buting nai dulot ay para sa sambayanan. Ang isang tunay na lingkod bayan ay naghahangad ng matapat na paglilingkod para sa kabutihan ng buong sambayanan. Ang isang tunay na lingkod bayan ay may hangad at tiyak na hakbang na gagawin upang maibalik ang puri at dangal ng ating dakilang lahi, higit sa lahat ang isang tunay na lingkod bayan ay may tunay na pagkatakot sa Diyos at ang paglingap na sa mamamayan ay isang paglilingkod na gagawin para sa Diyos at sa karangalan ng Diyos sa ating minamahal na bansa.

Ang hangarin ng aking puso ay mapukaw ang damdamin ng bawat isang nagmamahal sa ating bayang mahal at lupang hinirang na mag ka isa upang ating dili dilihin ang higit na kinakailangan ng ating ating bansa sa nalalapit na panahon at tayo'y magkapit bisig, magkaisa at humabi ng isang pahina ng kasaysayan na mag aangat sa lugmok na kalagayan ng ating bansa.

MAY PAG ASA-PA...BANGON PILIPINAS!!!

Giving An Impact To The Philippines Glorious Destiny

How can we give an impact to the glorious destiny of our beloved country the Philippines? The present administration, the president, senate and congress cannot change the life of our country and make it better. We need to come to an active civil position. Let us not be intimidated in the presence of high profile people, like ministers or senators.

As precious people and children of the Living God, we must come to realize that our God and Father who is in us and for us is bigger than them. God wants us to be the head and not the tail. His desire is for us to act in faith and do His very will in our nation’s transformation and becoming an instrument to the social, economical and political well being of our country and people.

Moses would not have become a deliverer to his people if he didn’t make a move to lead the people out of Egypt. We can only bring changes by taking a position, action. It is impossible to give an impact to our nation if we just incarcerated and put ourselves behind bars of the four corners of our churches. Aside from praying, we must have an active position.

We may look at our self as small and insignificant citizens. However, let us not forget that God is in the habit of using ordinary men and women to accomplish an extra ordinary achievement for the greater glory of His name.

Sa Pagbangon ngPilipinas, kasama ako ng Bagong Pilipino... Bagong Pilipinas!!!

BUMABANGON NA ANG PERLAS NG SILANGAN...BANGON PILIPINAS!!!

THE ALMOND BRANCH OF HOPE

Easter Message of Bro. Eddie C. Villanueva
12 April 2009

“Moreover the word of the LORD came to me, saying, Jeremiah, what do you see?
And I said, I see a branch of an almond tree. Then said the LORD unto me,
You have seen well: for I am ready to perform My word” Jeremiah 1:11-12

Resurrection always brings a message of hope. There is nothing more hope-boosting than knowing that the dead, yes the DEAD, may rise again!

The resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ is the single redemptive event that perfected mankind’s salvation and deliverance from sin, at the same time proving that faith in Him that holds the indisputable power over death is not useless.

Jesus, the Son of God, had to taste death to give His sinless life as a sacrifice for all the transgressions of mankind (Isaiah 53: 3-6; Hebrews 2:9). When He cried out on the cross: “It is finished!” (John 19:30) every requirement for the forgiveness of the sin of every man, under the Law and the Commandments, was satisfied! Every work needed to be done to set man free from the dominion of the evil one was indeed finished!

The Lord Jesus was the Lamb of God who, by His sacrifice on the Cross, had taken away the sins of the world. The Heavenly Father proved to all that Jesus’ sacrifice on the Cross was accepted as payment for man’s debt when He raised Him from the dead after three days of being in the grave. Because of the resurrection, those who have received Jesus as their Savior and Lord are now assured of eternal life, and just like Him, will also experience their own bodily resurrection (I Corinthians 15:12-22)!

The resurrection was also the message of God to Israel in the time of the prophets. Every time the Israelites were chastised by God because of their collective sin and backsliding from their covenant with God, the Lord raised up prophets to bring His message of restoration to their nation. One such prophet was Jeremiah.

In the beginning of God’s call to Jeremiah, the young prophet, the Lord showed him a vision. It was the vision of an almond branch (Jeremiah1:10- 12). The almond tree in Israel is the very first tree that awakens to life after the long winter season. It is the very first tree that would burst forth with beautiful white flowers in the early spring while the rest of the trees are still barren and sleeping. It is a symbol of the powerful phenomenon: The Resurrection!

God was saying to the prophet Jeremiah: “Even if Israel, My very own nation, dies because of My discipline and judgment, I can raise her back to life again and restore her glory among the nations!” The Lord told Jeremiah that the vision of the almond branch spoke of His willingness to fulfill all His promises to Israel if they would return to Him with all their hearts and walk in obedience to His will and purposes (Jeremiah 3:12-22), and that it was for the sake of the glory of His name that He was going to do this (Ezekiel 36:21-23). Israel was a nation covenanted with God bearing the name of Jehovah, the eternal, self-existent God of covenants.

The Philippines today needs to experience the power of the Resurrection! Like the nation of Israel, we are also a nation that bears the glory of the name of Christ! Being the first and only Christian nation in the Far East, we are today dying in shame and reproach being known today as the most corrupt country in Asia. From being one of the most prosperous countries in the region in the 1940’2 up to 1960’s, we have sunk to our destitute state today. Many of our people are going out of the country just to find jobs. In the time of relative global prosperity, we are among the hungriest in the world. Unprecedented moral and spiritual degradation, especially in places of authority, has brought our people closer and closer to the grave. Systemic corruption is all over the land.

Is there hope? Because of the Resurrection, I dare say, yes there is hope! Like Jeremiah, we must receive a vision of the almond branch!

The Philippines in fact was first named “Archipelago of Saint Lazarus” before it was named the Philippines. This could be a prophetic pronouncement; that this nation would be resurrected in due time, because Lazarus, the closest friend of Jesus for whom He wept when he died, was raised from the dead by Jesus Himself. Jesus prayed to the Father that life would return to the body of Lazarus which had been dead for four days. Everybody was mourning for Lazarus and had given up hope until the voice of the Lord Jesus broke the silence of the grave with the loud shout of command: “Lazarus come forth!” (John 11:43).

Lazarus rose back to life! He was released from the burial clothes (representing murderous, hindering works of the Enemy like poverty, chaos, rampant sinfulness, among others) that bound him hand and foot by a simple command the Lord gave: “Loosen him!” (John 11:44).

As we celebrate the Resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ, let us fill our hearts with the message of hope for ourselves, our people, and nation! Let us look unto the Lord Jesus, the Author and Finisher of our faith, the One who holds the keys of death and hell (Revelation 1:18). Because Jesus has risen, the Philippines, the Archipelago of Saint Lazarus will also rise! Let us not lose sight of the vision of the almond branch, the vision of hope in the worst of situations!

Let every God-fearing and nation-loving Filipino believe God for our nation’s resurrection! Let it be said, the Philippines will RISE and be great again!
