Change the Motivations of Why you Do Things
“Keep your heart with all diligence, For out of it spring the issues of life.” (Proverbs 4:23 NKJV)
If we’re not intentional with our thoughts, the world will swing us this way and that way with their messages.
Have you ever thought about why you do certain things?
Why do you wear the disposable face mask? Is it because you’re afraid of catching the coronavirus?
Change that motivation to wearing the mask because you think you look cool in it, or maybe that it feels good.
Protection from plagues and pestilences comes from the Lord.
Why are you working out? Is it because you’re afraid you’ll become fat or that your health will fail if you don’t exercise?
Switch that motivation to be that you’re working out because you think it’s fun and you enjoy exceeding your perceived personal limitations.
Fitness and health are both blessings from the Lord.
Why do you go to work? Is it because if you don’t work then there’ll be no money and your family will starve?
Think of it this way instead: You work because you find it fulfilling to contribute positively to society and be a blessing and testimony for Jesus Christ wherever you go.
Provision is a blessing from the Lord.
When we do things out of fear or worry, it shows that we believe that the things we’re afraid of are very strong.
That’s why hearing God’s word is so important. We have to constantly refocus back to Jesus and seeing Him as far greater than any problem.
Just by a simple mental switch and seeing the same thing from a different perspective, we can do things out of a positive, proactive choice instead of from a defensive stance.
This helps us to maintain a state of faith rather than unbelief. Unbelief is what blocks us from receiving the promises of God.
Let your faith be in Jesus and His finished work at the cross for everything you need in life.
Everything else you do is just to enjoy life’s wonderful diversity of experiences—not to earn your blessings!
Why did I want to write my new book “Messiah’s Miracles—The Power or Having Faith in Jesus Christ”?
It’s because I want to see Christians walk in a greater measure of the miraculous power of God in their daily lives.
How nice it will be to live in a world where the church is actively exercising dominion over the strongholds of darkness.
I believe that as you see Jesus working miracles in the four gospels, unveiling God’s heart of love, goodness and mercy towards man, you will also receive faith to see miracles in every area of your life!
You will also be able to walk in the power of God when you expect to see the supernatural gifts in operation.
Testimonials for the book:
“One of my most trusted teachers has truly written a masterpiece. I can't put this book down.”
- Michael Clark, Highly Sought-After Preacher in USA
“Thank you, Milton for the anointed sharing of the 37 miracles of Jesus. Right from the 1st miracle, God dropped fresh revelations of His heart to me. It wasn't head knowledge that I experienced. I felt His personality, His loving heart's intents towards me. On top of that, there's also revelation of His healing power. Praise Jesus for transforming my heart and bringing me closer to Him through Milton's sharing.”
- Ann Tan, GEM patron from Singapore

Our Great God Protects His Beloved
“And after the thousand years, Satan will be released from his prison, and he will come out to deceive the nations which are in the four corners of the earth, Gog and Magog, to gather them together to the war; the number of whom is as the sand of the sea. They went up over the width of the earth, and surrounded the camp of the saints, and the beloved city. Fire came down out of heaven from God, and devoured them. The devil who deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet are also. They will be tormented day and night forever and ever.” (Revelation 20:7-10 WEB)
Can you imagine an army led by the devil as vast as the number of grains of sand in the sea—how scary that would be in the natural?
You’d expect that army to bulldoze through everything. It will surround Jerusalem at that time.
The fact that the army could make it there must mean that it had destroyed all the lines of defense that protected Jerusalem.
And yet when the devil thinks he’s going to win it all, he will realize that God has been waiting for that exact moment to utterly destroy him.
Fire falls from Heaven and destroys the vast demonic armies that will cover the face of the earth.
Everything temporal will be burnt up and only Jerusalem will be left untouched with the lake of fire exposed and burning hot under it.
The devil will be cast into the lake of fire. His screams of agony will be the loudest, echoing throughout eternity, for he filled the cup of wrath for himself beyond measure.
When it seems like the enemy is making inroads in your life, it doesn’t mean that God is unaware of what’s going on.
There is a perfect moment for Him to save you and to demonstrate His greatest glory.
Without an opportunity for Satan to make his move, we won’t be able to see exactly how much greater our God is.
No matter how great the challenge, we’ll always discover that our God is greater.
At that time in the Millennium there will be a temple in Jerusalem—the one that prophet Ezekiel saw a vision of. The armies of Satan will surround that temple.
The apostle Paul taught that today our bodies are the temple of God since it houses the Holy Spirit.
It may seem like your spiritual enemies have got you surrounded right now. They may have broken through some lines of defense.
But I’m telling you, fire from Heaven is going to fall upon those demons at the perfect time.
They may have gathered against you one way, but they will flee seven ways after being incinerated by the fire of the Holy Spirit.
Get a sense of how much greater your God is than the devil. The devil is small fry. If God is for you, no devil nor demon can stand against you!
Just like Jerusalem is referred to as the “beloved city” in the passage above, you are also God’s beloved child.
When you believe you are His beloved, you will remain in peace because you know you’re going to win!
After the passage above is the part about the Great White Throne Judgment.
In my book “Sandcastles Don’t Last Forever”, I elaborate about the encouraging truths about judgment for believers before Jesus’ throne, how to maximize our eternal rewards, live a worthy life and fulfill our God-given calling!
Jesus wants us to receive the best rewards that last forever. One day we will stand before His throne to receive our eternal rewards.
By His Grace, we can redeem the time and walk wisely when time is so short!
I believe the Rapture will happen soon so we need to understand reward theology more than ever—our redemption draws near so its time to be looking up!
