Daily Scripture's Reflection: "God's Accepted Time"


(Today’s lesson from 2 Corinthians 6 and the book of Ester)

Today I learn something “amazing” about how God works through our prayer. It is written in 2 Cor 6:12 that God dwells among us..inside us as we are he temple of the living GOD. Can you imagine Haniva??? If God is living in you how cant He know all the things in your heart before you speak it out?
He knows everything for He created your heart. 2 Corinthians talks about the day of salvation or the accepted time.. the time when God is acceptable... the time is now..not tomorrow, or the day after tomorrow.. it’s today. so i dont have to postpone the time when i want to come before Him, entering His presence, in His holiness. J

If I try to connect it with the story of Ester, i find such a precise point that is really amazing to be learnt about God’s timing;

“When Ester prayed, God didn’t answer her right away.. why? Doesn’t He say that the accepted time is today? in everything we ask Jesus teaches us to pray “Let your will be done on earth as it is in heaven”. What does it mean? It means that the accepted time is today in God’s timing, in His absolute will... sometimes we feel it so slow like never coming to us, till we get tired to ask. Yet, never stop asking for God will fulfill His great plan in us. Ester kept praying for her people though Mordechai was already lifted up by the King, but that’s not the end of the story coz the end is the fall of Haman. God is in the process of all... God was working till the day when He Himself gave Haman to Ester. Ester didn't have to ask the king to put Haman to death but God Himself gave Haman to ester in His accepted time. Finally Ester people, that is the Jews, could be saved from threaten.“

So, if God says that He who created the uncountable stars is willing to be my Father...then why should I refuse? I dare not refuse.. I have to be His daughter, trusting Him for every single thing that He has designed about my life.. for His designs are perfect that is why I am thankful coz I know I am fearfully and wonderfully made...

NEVER GET TIRED OF PRAYING.... :0

2 Corinthians 6:18 and I will be a Father to you, and you shall be My sons and daughters, says [the] Lord Almighty.

If "Hot Blooded Woman" was made into a Drama"

"Hot Blooded Woman" Well, I just finished reading a manhwa (Korean manga) that has really stolen all my attention. i ever read it some years ago when i just entered university. Recently i have been curious again with this manhwa so i decided to download it. this manhwa is very amusing.. i bet ypu will laugh loudly like a crazy one and forget all the pain when you read this story.. so just try! After reading, a crazy idea came to my mind; what if this manhwa was made into a drama, who would star it? so, here is my own consideration who is more suitable to play the characters of "Hot blooded woman"; 1. the main character Park Sin Uoo would be very perfect for Lee Min Hoo. i ever thought of Kim Hyun Joong but later i made up my mind as Kim Hyun Joong would be better playing as an angel.. yup, he's not suitable for being Sin Uoo.. :)   2. Kang Ha Ji would be suitable for Moon Geun Young. I felt kinda difficult to find a korean actress for Ha Ji as this gi

When God says 'Not Yet' (again)

 Surrender.. this is the only word that best describes my feeling today. The disappointment might have taken place yesterday but today God has turned it into surrender. I got a new email yesterday from the New Zealand embassy telling me that my scholarship application was not accepted yet. Here's the mail... Dear Haniva, Thank you for your recent application for a scholarship and interest in undertaking post-graduate studies in New Zealand. Although the number of scholarship places for Indonesia has increased, so have the number of applications, and it was challenging for us to have to select only a limited number of these from many often strong applications. In making the selection and shortlisting potential candidates for the scholarship, we had to ensure that a number of criteria which have been set by the New Zealand Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade (MFAT) were fully met.  Unfortunately, there were many applications, including yours, that did not fu

Easter (7 words on the cross)

Today the Christians all over the world celebrate the most important day of our faith story ever after. Why i say it’s the most important  day? Coz i cannot imagine if Christ did not substitute me and you, we can surely know where we’re going today.. “ETERNAL DEATH” i can say it for sure... Praise God MY LORD did it for me, for you and all of us not when we know HIM yet when we were in the darkness..when we were still captivated by this world, HE came and sacrificed HIS LIFE just to set me and you free. So, in this remarkable day i wanna share a little bit what i’ve learnt during the 7 weeks of passion until today. The great lessons i learn are from the 7 words of Jesus on the cross and the greatest redemption He did on the cross. The seven words on the cross I would never ever imagine if i were in Christ position, hanging on the cross, tortured, got mocked by the rulers, what would be the best words i say if i were hanging on the cross? I know for sure, cursing... however The BIB
