The Touch Point draws its inspiration from the encounter of the leper (found in Mark 1:41-42). Jesus' touch changed the man's life. That touch changed his life forever. Jesus has tender compassion and pity towards a sincere sinner and nothing can change this truth even your worse reality. This story speaks of a great reality, a powerful reality, of the transforming power of the blood of Christ. The moment we encounter Jesus, we will never be the same again. We are made whole, healed, and free!
God steps into our mess. Even when we create chaos with our impatience, His mercy finds us and leads us back to His purpose.
Be encouraged today by these truths:God sees what we cannot see. Even in our doubts, He does not turn away but patiently reassures us of His love and presence.God's ways are beyond human comprehension. His promises will be fulfilled, but not through our limited understanding or expectations.God leads us back to Himself. When we become too focused on “how” and “when” He will fulfill His promises, God gently reminds us that His presence is greater than anything He can give.
Every victory in our lives is because of God's presence. If our success glorifies God, it is because He never left us, not even for a second.
God's vision for us is greater than anything we could imagine. Like Abram, we're called to trust that what God has prepared is far better than anything we could achieve on our own. When we follow His lead, we step into a future shaped by His purpose, not just our plans.
God sees our weaknesses and still chooses us. He understands our struggles, our doubts, and our fears—yet His love remains steadfast.
God's calling may be going to the UNFAMILIAR, INCONVENIENT, and UNCOMFORTABLE; however, God's personal presence through the Holy Spirit will stay TO BE YOUR FAMILIAR.
God is always working behind the scenes. He was ensuring His plan for you. Even when we don't see it, He is making paths straight for us.
When life's storms come, hold onto God's promises. The rainbow is His covenant to sustain us, to carry us through, and to remind us that His presence is our shelter.
Trust that He is working for your good, even when the journey feels long, and praise Him as you step into His renewed plans for your life.
Sin reveals our need for God's mercy, and His grace is always greater. No matter what challenges or "floods" you face, God is faithful and committed to drawing you back into His presence. Through Jesus Christ, He provides the ultimate refuge, ensuring that nothing can separate you from His love and protection. Trust in Him and find peace in His unwavering mercy.
In the rise of darkness and isolation, God offers His friendship and His relationship with you as He offered it to Noah.
The flood reminds us of the gravity of sin, but even more so, it points us to God's mercy and faithfulness. Just as God sealed Noah and his family safely in the ark, He offers us ultimate refuge in Christ. Whatever storms you face, trust that His plans are steady, His care is unshakable, and His love is steadfast.
In a world filled with brokenness, Jesus is our Ark—the one who carries us through life's storms and offers us eternal hope. No matter how overwhelming the task or chaotic the world around us, God's promises in Christ are sure, His grace is sufficient, and His love never fails.
Even when sin abounds, God's mercy is greater—offering redemption, restoration, and hope to those who walk with Him.
Even in the midst of human frailty and the challenges of life, God's redemptive plan is at work, offering hope for every generation.
God's justice is real, but so is His mercy, offering hope as His love reaches beyond sin and His grace meets us in unexpected ways, even in moments of discipline.
God's mercy is greater than our failures. Just as He covered Adam and Eve, He covers us with the righteousness of Christ. His compassion is unwavering, and His grace restores our dignity.
Though sin brings consequences, God's plan for redemption has been unfolding since the very beginning.
When life leaves you trapped in the weight of your failures, remember this: God is a God who always calls you back into a relationship with Him. He doesn't give up. He pursues, restores, and renews.
When life gets hectic and overwhelming, remember this: God created the Sabbath for you. Rest isn't just a pause in your schedule—it's a way to celebrate His goodness, honor His provision, and find renewal in His presence.
When your life feels shattered or broken, remember: God is a God who creates. He brings light into darkness, order into chaos, and beauty into brokenness. And He's not done with you yet.

A SERIES ON GENESIS BAD NEWS: The tree of knowledge of good and evil many have treated it like a test but more than a test, I believe it is the imagery of God's ulterior motive for man. HE CREATED MAN FREE BEING. The tree was more than a test. The tree was giving man the freedom whom to worship, himself, his own way of life of God's ways for man. To think of it as a test is like treating us as if we are just God's toy and experiment. And God is looking at when are we going to fail. No God is not like that. God's government is governed with freedom and not coercion. It is not force and power that He uses to rule. God uses love to rule and it is in humility and service not in the display of superiority. The very day they sinned, God did not delay and sought for them. This is so amazing to note. Please remember. We have this misunderstanding that when we seen God abandons us and is angry at us. No. He maintains his distance with sin but never the sinner. God knows fully well the story humanity was deceived by the real enemy. Man is not the real enemy of God with the sin in man's heart, it was really Satan. God sought for them and like all of us when we sin we do ourselves to cover it up, but here we get the real picture that only God's covering will last and will stand to be the truest covering. Man can never cover the shame that sin caused. Whenever we fall, there is no self-repair, self-preservation, self restoration needed on our end, it should only be God's repair, restoration, preservation, transformation and never ours. Only God's way lasts and leaves us with no side effects. The only side effect is the consequence but the rest as long as we allow God, it is His works! That's how God loves you. That's how God still wanted you despite you sins. GOOD NEWS: This chapter may be the saddest but we get also the best news, the good news in this chapter. GOD declared the GOSPEL, THE FIRST GOSPEL, THE ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE DEFEAT OF THE ENEMY. Why the defeat because God will be man's defender, fighter, and savior. God Himself will fight a personal fight with Satan. God, Himself, will fight a personal fight, the fights His children needed to fight. He will fight face to face with Satan not in power and might of a king but as a humble man: a tiny baby, a simple boy, and an ordinary man. He has no armies but himself, he has no allies but himself, he has no arms but his soul, he has no strength but his love, and he has the whole heaven guiding him and fighting the battles for him. He is alone with the will of the father on his heart. LOVE & JUSTICE: The law of God was broken and the payment is death. Justice must be served and Adam and Eve are to die and be separated from God forever. But before this happened Jesus in heaven already volunteered to be man's Savior. Jesus did not want any one will be separated from God forever and miss going back home. Man's home is God. Man's home is in the heart of God. And Jesus promised that He will do what is necessary to be done to bring back man into the arms of God… Jesus died for the death man deserved to receive.

A SERIES ON GENESIS Sabbath means I have a God who has a plan. I have a God who created the world. I have a God who declared deliverance of the slaves and the captives. And I have a God who will be victorious. Sabbath is all about what Jesus offers to us, His love and His life. That He stood faithful until death. What a great privilege to be know of this God. If He stood faithful until death, then would stand faithful until the very end. The rest of God is when all his creation is already settled at peace and their right place. Our rest is in the works of Jesus in each of our hearts. The work that has already began even before we were born. Sabbath is me stopping to please Him for my favor. It is stopping believing that God is the same as the rulers and kings of this world, who will rule over me with dominance and power. Sabbath means I need to believe that my God has serve me with His death for my sake. I need to believe that it was God alone who worked so hard for me to be saved. II need to believe that my Jesus is my protector and defender. He has become my brother and high priest in heaven forever. Sabbath mean all I need to do is to believe and bathe my heart and soul with the abundance of his dedication and devotion to have me in His kingdom. This is Sabbath rest for me today. Relationships means to crave for it is part of how we are created to be… this craving as I use this word should be pointed to God… This is the very plan of God that as Adam and Eve grow closer it will reflect the closeness of God to them. Our relations are to teach us the reality of the closeness of God to us. Our craving is directed for us to see how hungry God for us because He is our creator and if there is anyone we can connect with without reservation, with all honesty, it should be God. Above all relationship it should be our relationship with God that stands superior.

Genesis, the beginning, the first book in the Bible is a love letter of the unfolding of God's plan of redemption. Hope you will be blessed with our reflections.
The power of God's redemption through Jesus Christ will stand faithful. Through the redemptive work of Christ, the nation of God will change. The people of God will turn their backs from evil and will worship God as the true God.
Friends, In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! Because Jesus said, “I have overcome the world.” Your identity is in what Jesus did, not on where you are or what you are now!
Friends, whatever is the oppressing power that surrounds you, it may be yourself— your weaknesses, or other people persecuting you. God promised that as you remain to be God's child You are not in a hopeless situation. Your oppression is not a sign of your failure but rather a hope of a coming deliverance. God sees you…HE IS STILL ON YOUR SIDE!
Friends, who is your God? Is He in-charge of all your victories? Does He own your successes? Is He the reason of your faith?
Friends, God's love will never stop- it will never ever fail, and His mercies will never come to an end, especially in your darkest moments.
Friends, there are just many things that we don't understand about Jesus' ways. There are many things in us that are just the exact contrast of what is in HIM. He is just so fair, so kind, so humble, full of pity, and full of compassion. Yes, we are so different but HE IS OUR FRIEND! HE wants us the way we are. HE likes us the way we are. And the best thing is HE DOESN'T LEAVE US the way we are.
God's victories in the past become the hope for all our tomorrows. Christ's past becomes our victory today.
Friends, just like Elisha and his servant, you are not fighting the battle alone. The leader of God's army in Heaven—Jesus Christ is fighting for you. You are on God's side because you are HIS child.
You are His child and these words are for you. In Christ, there is the wondrous possibility of change, renewal, and transformation.
Friends, barely hanging on hope, barely seeing a future in your life right now. In Christ, we are already winners and we are more than conquerors because He already won the battle for us.
Friends, the inevitable presence of evil around us will continue to disturb us. But Paul was so secure when he wrote these verses— NOTHING SHALL SEPARATE YOU FROM THE LOVE OF GOD FOR YOU. Christ's presence is not always in His appearances. Christ seeming silence is never His absence. Because this truth will remain, NOTHING SHALL SEPARATE YOU FROM THE LOVE OF GOD FOR YOU. We will always have a sure assurance in Christ Jesus our Lord!
Friends, when our sin abounds, God's grace abounds even more. No one is too sinful to be forgiven No one is too sinful to be given the warning No one is too sinful to be given the chance.
Yes, friends, very wonderful news for you and me. Even before you were born you are already loved and thought of by God. Even before you have messed up your life you were already loved. And God knew we would end up in a messed-up life so He gave the substitute for our lives, His one, and only Son. For us to live the best life we could ever live in this sin-sick world.
Friends, Christ is above all ideals. Despite how perfect He is and righteous HE is. HE has the UNCONDITIONAL love for sinners like you and me. What a wondrous love that all we need to do is to look at His perfection. And we are saved!
Friends, indeed, CHRIST is our all in all! In Him, we just don't have a deliverer, we also have a friend, a defender, and a sustainer.
Friends, it doesn't matter who you are. Jesus wants you in the family of God. Jesus wants you back more than anything in this world. Friends, He is waiting. Because in Jesus you are legally His!
Friends, the battle is not all about you. It is about God and He gave us Michael to defend our side. Please know that the battle is the Lord's and He is already declared, the winner!
Yes, friends, Jesus has some humor too, Jesus maybe has moments when he rolled on the hills of Judea for some fun. Jesus came and became just like us to offer the best gift to all humanity—freedom from the shackles of sin. And when HE says freedom, it is free indeed.
Friends, it doesn't matter who you are. Jesus wants you in the family of God. Jesus wants you back more than anything in this world. Friends, He is waiting. Because in Jesus you are legally His!
Friends, there is a promised change! God's promise remained faithful that evil shall never win. The power of God's redemption through Jesus Christ will stand faithful. Through the redemptive work of Christ, the nation of God will change. The people of God will turn their backs from evil and will worship God as the true God.
The verse says, “God's faithfulness is perfect.” When He said He will deliver you from sin's tyranny—God will do it. He promised that in your weakness He will be your strength He promised that evil will not overcome you because He will fight for you. He promised that He will be your deliverer He promised that He will do His best to save you. He promised that He will come back for His children.
