You didn’t choose me. I chose you. I appointed you to go and produce lasting fruit, so that the Father will give you whatever you ask for, using my name. -John 15:16(NLT)
HUMBLY ASK IN JESUS’ NAME
A poem and essay by ILMA
You are blessed because God chose you to be his child
Are you protecting your heart and living in his light?
God chose you and appointed you to produce fruits
He wants Scriptures and all his truth to take root.
Do you ask your needs in Jesus’ name?
You will be given, so ask and don’t be ashamed
He will give you fruits from his Spirit
Be sure to humbly ask and he will give it.

Some people expect to have answered prayers but they never ask in the first place. In James 4:2-3 we are given the reason why we don’t get our prayers answered. We don’t ask and sometimes when we ask, we do so for the wrong reasons. I grew up thinking God knows already what I need and want, so I never bothered asking them using his powerful name. I didn’t read his word so I didn’t know the power of his name and that I can receive anything I ask by using his name. I just ask without giving his glorious name the credit. I am glad that his Spirit reminds me to ask because he has chosen me as his own child.

PRAYER
Thank you Lord for your powerful name and for choosing me.
REFLECTION
Why do you think we are encouraged to ask the Lord using his name?

“Why don’t you talk to me?” Pilate demanded. “Don’t you realize that I have the power to release you or crucify you? Then Jesus said, “You would have no power over me at all unless it were given to you from above. –John 19:10-11 (NLT)
UNLESS GOD GIVES YOU POWER
A poem and essay by ILMA
Do you really believe that you have power?
Unless God gives it to you, you won’t be a victor
He alone blesses you and gives you strength
You can only be righteous because of the Son he sent.¬¬¬¬
Because of his grace and mercy, you were saved
No one has the right to boast and claim
He has the sole power to do what needs to be done
Run to the throne; bring honor and glory to his Son.

There were many years of my Christian life that I was ignorant of things regarding the character of God. I believed many lies. I believed for many years that I can work to be saved. I thought that being good will help me to enter the kingdom of God. Satan twisted the truth and made me think that I could do what only God could do, to redeem myself.
The bible tells us that unless God gives us power, we won’t be able to do anything. Everything that happens to us comes from his mercy and grace. He allows things to happen for a reason.
PRAYER
Lord, thank you for your love for me.
REFLECTION
What do you enjoy right now that comes from God’s grace and power?
