10 Good Reasons Why

Filed Under : Christianity,Music,Uncategorized by Phil Jean

Ever felt like you were never good enough for God? I sure have felt that MANY times. I was just listening to “10 Good Reasons” by “Hello Kelly” and i just couldn’t help my self but to pull up the lyrics and to post them here. Tell you what, I am SOOO thankful that Christ died to forgive me EVEN though He knew how many times I would mess up. Romans 5:8 says that Jesus actually died for us EVEN while we were still sinners. It means that He didn’t do it because we showed any improvement or that we did anything that looked promising. Rather He did it in Hope that one day we would turn from our wicked ways and accept His love and sacrifice.

When you feel like your not good enough and that you feel like you need to give God reasons as to why He should love you, welcome to the club. All you need to do is to thank Him for His sacrifice and show Him that you love Him by obeying Him.

10 Good Reasons – Hello Kelly:

This is the first thing I remember
I’ve seen black and white forever
But the mistakes I’ve made are making me afraid
That I might do something
Something that can’t be forgiven
So I’ve got this suit and tie
Something I can hide behind

And it feels like I’ve got give you

10 good reasons why
You still love me every time
10 good reasons
I deserve forgiveness every night
10 good reason why
You still love me when I
I ain’t got no reason why

And I remember laying everything down
Only to turn around and sell you out
It’s like I’m laughing in your face for the sacrifice you made
But you’re breaking my defenses
And you’ll carry me when it feels like

it feels like

it feels like I’ve got give you

10 good reasons why
You still love me every time
10 good reasons
I deserve forgiveness every night
10 good reason why
You still love me when I
I ain’t got no reason why
you still love me every time

i got no reason why

But this is everything I wanted:
To give you reasons I’m not
Everything you wanted
Theres blood on my hands
These 10 reasons I can’t give you
Is one more reason that I need you

10 good reasons why
10 good reasons why

10 good reasons why
You still love me every time
10 good reasons
I deserve forgiveness every night
10 good reason why
You still love me when I
I ain’t got no reason why
you still love me every time

I aint got no, I aint got no, I aint got no reasons why
I ain’t got no, I aint got no, got no reason why

10 good reasons

Jesus are you there?

Filed Under : Christianity,Life,World by Phil Jean
Aug.16,2011

Have you ever gotten to a point in your life where it felt like God was MIA (Missing in Action). Have you ever felt like God seemed a mile away? Have you ever been in a service where it seemed like everyone was getting touched by God but you? Are you feeling like you are the only one in the world that is dealing with sin?

See, If the enemy cannot get you to turn your back on God, he will do everything in his power to ether keep you in sin or keep you oppressed or depressed. He just want to discourage you enough that you become inaffective as a christian. There is only 1 think worst then a non-believer and that’s a depressed Christian.

I want to encourage you and let you know that if you are currently feeling any of the feelings mentioned above, then you might just be on the enemy’s hit-list which is a good thing. It means that you are a threat to him. That means that someone down the line you might be doing something good. Never give up, never let go. God sees and knows what your going through. Keep on being faithful and everything else is bound to fall back into place!

Donevan Impact Feb 12th 09

Filed Under : Donevan High School by Phil Jean
Feb.12,2009

Today was our second part of “When bad Things Happen” we talked out of Exodus 34:5-7. i talked a bit about how God is a just God. 

Exodus 34:5-7 (Holman Christian Standard Bible)

5 The LORD came down in a cloud, stood with him there, and proclaimed [His] name Yahweh. 6 Then the LORD passed in front of him and proclaimed:

    Yahweh—Yahweh is a compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger and rich in faithful love and truth, 7 maintaining faithful love to a thousand [generations], forgiving wrongdoing, rebellion, and sin.  But He will not leave [the guilty]  unpunished, bringing the consequences of the fathers’ wrongdoing on the children and grandchildren to the third and fourth generation.

I talked about How He died for us even while we were still sinning (Romans 5:8).  The DVD story was about a girl that called her self Christian but ended up doing drugs with some friends and doing stuff to look cool in front of people. one day, her best friend that called her self a Christian but actually lived it, got in a car accident and died shortly after. Gabby, the girl telling the story, shared about how she got angry with God that her friend that was doing everything right was the one that died while SHE was doing everything wrong and nothing happened to her. She started to get convicted about how SHE was the one that deserved to be punished not her friend.

I used this story to bring the whole thing back to the fact that Jesus was the one with the clean hands yet it was His hands that were pierced not ours. He was the one that got beaten almost to death, not us. He was the one that was stripped down naked, not us. And He was the one that got crucified on the cross…. not us. He took our place and died the death that WE deserve. When i shared Exo 34:5-7, i shared about how even though God doesn’t let the wicked go without consequences, He is faithful to forgive them (and us) of our sins if we truly repent.

It was just an awesome moment all together. Needless to say God move mightly as 3 kids got saved and 3 others rededicated their lives to a serious relationship with Jesus! Please if you are reading this, keep praying for our Highschools, they need a move of God. The reality is that God is willing and ready but He needs servants to help plow the way! God Bless!

Donevan Impact Feb 5th

Filed Under : Donevan High School by Phil Jean
Feb.5,2009

Today we had our first Impact at Donevan High school since the exams last week. We started the second session of a series called I AM Getting To Know God. Today’s session was about “When Bad Things Happen”. It consisted of someone sharing a testimony about how her mom was diagnosed with cancer and quickly got ill and soon after died. The young girl sharing the story is talking about how she got angry with God but rather then to run away with the anger, she ran to God with it! we had really good conversations after. one of the questions in the lesson was “If God is such a loving God then why do you think there is suffering?” It was really cool to hear what everyone thought. I challenged my gorup by asking them to ponder on this statement, “Without suffering, there is no compassion.” I told them it was like there would be no need for food if there was no hunger. The fact is that this is the land of the dying. We are not meant to stay here but to move on to Heaven where there IS no pain, sickness and death. We have to make sure that our hope is in whats to come and not in earthly things such as relationships, wealth etc…

Words Of Faith in Action

Filed Under : Bible,Christianity,Sermons by Phil Jean
Jan.30,2009

I find it amazing that God is like He is! I mean, like I previously mentioned, I just started a new series on the power of your words and it just so happens that God makes me practice what I preach. For the last 3 days now (starting on Tuesday) I’ve been having this pain in my bowels. I went to the doctors and got a bunch of tests done and they can’t give me a straight answer to what it is. Now the Doctor has told me that he thinks it’s a stomach flu which WOULD affect my bowels. The reality is that God started to speak to me. He asked me, in a reminding tone, what was I starting to preach about and so He told me, well start to act what you preach! Sure enough, all I needed to do was to speak over it and I’m doing a lot better now!
