I kept silence during the inauguration
of Pres. Noynoy Aquino,watching and praying that indeed we have not made
a mistake in choosing this unlikely candidate. I have prophesied before
in my article, “The birth of a New Philippines” that appeared in May
and quickly taken on by the broadcast media and aired that we are living
in a new chapter of history.
Indeed, one can hardly recognize when history had come and favoured
the most unlikely person to be the president because we were... Continue reading ...
I was greeted by the grim news that Lola Sol, as we fondly call the
former chief of the Department of Education Culture and Sports (now Dep
Ed) then at Bulanao, passed away. Her husband had just gone to be with
the Lord last January and to suddenly realize that she too had been
called at the city gates of the New Jerusalem above seems impossible and
unexpected. I came to know my lola personally during my kinder and
elementary days because my mother who was employed as a clerk at D... Continue reading ...
In the coming days we will witness the
rebirth of the Philippines–our prayers for our country will determine
whether the outcome will be for good or for evil. I have been in a
church service this past week and had seen a vision of what is coming
upon our country. I felt that this is real and true, I saw the
Philippines bathed with a great light, the radiance and the expanse of
it covers the entire island in yellowish tinge coming from the heavens
above and animated by wavelit lig... Continue reading ...
Elections are highly stressful activities and they can kill you if
you have heart problems for many unexpected turn of events. This could
be as simple as people bringing their solicitation letters at your gate
and asking for money or a true health threat such as the unbearable
scorching heat under the sun when campaigning on the road. Others could
be as simple as irritations from others who continuously hurl a barrage
of accusations against us on the radio or on the TV. Politics may see... Continue reading ...
The times in the wilderness
Israel was not quickly transported to heaven after believing God and
being “baptized” in the Red sea. She was thrust rather to walking the
great distance from that point on to the wilderness. This experience is
really a means of God to get their hearts truly aligned to His mind for
the calling that He has called them. This journey could have not lasted
very long, it could have been simply an 11 days journey and then to the
Promised Land, but because of t... Continue reading ...
“To do righteousness and justice is desired by the Lord rather
than sacrifice.” Prov 21:3
There was incredible silence after the Massacre of the victims of the
Ampatuan clan, until now, swift justice has not been served, and it
seems indeed that justice has been delayed. Where are we at this time?
Why do we not want to keep silent over this debacle? Are we not being
partial that because the poor stands at the door like a pauper and now
we disengage ourselves from their affairs? We h... Continue reading ...
“There seems to be a way for a man but the end thereof is death,”
Solomon wrote, and it seems that every man since tried to put up a
solution to solve every problem. There is a subtle thought, that just
one chance, just one idea, just one opportune time, and I will make it big. Like Lucifer, these
dreamers defile the sanctuary, use the name of God, their calling and
then trade it for the goods of the world. Every dream, goal and motive
which is not aligned with the Word of God, and ... Continue reading ...
The year 2010 is fraught with foreboding presence of either God or
the devil in the election. Our destiny hangs in the balance, and it
hangs on the captain we will choose to steer the Philippine leader ship
to either greater bondage or the freedom from it. This ship, which
I have discussed in my books “Freedom from religious bondage” (Bringing
down friarism), and also in “Restorers of the breach” (Contending for
the dream) symbolizes the present leadership and
 Francisco
Pizarro ... Continue reading ...
I think most of us do not
grasp the degree of suffering and devastation that has hit Haiti. We
think because the front-page news about Haiti has diminished that
Haiti's need has also diminished, but it has not. The urgency of people
being buried alive has been replaced with the urgency of a million and a
half people without homes or shelter.
To put this disaster into
perspective, recall the terrifying Sumatran tsunami that killed 230,000
people in December 2004. Eighteen nations were... Continue reading ...
We are taking sometime to absorb the lessons that we can get from the recent albeit macabre Ampatuan massacre. As Christians who are called to be the salt and light of the earth, we are supposed to be shining our light on issues in our

communities that beg us to question why? And how we can avoid those same pitfall that our brethren has fallen to. We are decei... Continue reading ...
The carnage that left 57 dead at Shariff Aguak, Maguindanao on
November 23 has left us all wondering for what barbarity and primitive
acts has been committed not just to the Maguindanao populace but for us
all. This begs us not just a simple what? Or why? But a condition that
existed already and burst out of control, finally the devil has been
exposed for what it is. Political violence that marked many provinces
is a color that has co-existed among many
 The killing fields is a deliberate atte... Continue reading ...
There are many definition for the words leadership and leaders. Just
googling the word leadership gives you 122 million entries to look up.
That is how desperately varied we are in defining what leadership is,
some definitions of leadership are the following,

“Times produce the person and not the other way around.” H... Continue reading ...
As some of you may already know, we went to Kiangan, Ifugao for the
CYF leadership conference that has instilled a greater zeal and
devotion on our part who oversaw the work there. Truly, God’s army is
moving forward and I could find no other encouragement than that my
survey of the youth leaders there showed that 87% of these young men
and women wants to do ministry and 95% of them in worship/music area.
This is not a coincidence because it is during these dull, boisterous
and chaotic peri... Continue reading ...
In an amazing twist of destiny, we have been spared from
another possibly deadly typhoon attack but praise the Lord for as we
have all been praying, God stopped Ramil in the sea. Can God really
stop a typhoon, much less a superstrong one in the radar of weather
forecasters? Yes, that truth is easier realized than anything when we
think that He is both just, merciful and loving God. God can stop any
percolating typhoon, windstorm, thunderstorm or even tornado. Even at
the risk of being ... Continue reading ...
Given all the prevailing issues that have come due to the
floods that has brought our country to its knees, there is only one
sure solution that everyone of us need to understand. We must build our
houses on the Rock, that is plain, stable and solid ground that none
can push away. This Rock is not dead, nor is it of volcanic origin or
“earthly” as many geologists would mistake. It is not. We have to see
the perspectives that is upon us now by asking three salient questions,
1) Wh... Continue reading ...
In one of the most prophetic songs I have ever heard, Michael W. Smith’s Above All declares the majesty and power of God over the creation and dominion of man and all created beings. God’s power is really above all authority, above all powers, above all kings, above all thrones and dominions-He truly is the epitome, the one above all things. If Jesus is then King above all, what is the question? This is the struggle of all believers during times of crisis and during trials. Can God be tru... Continue reading ...
I was wondering if there were signs to be observed and things that we have overlooked why we have not known before hand the magnitude of the flood that will be coming. If we could have known then we could have prepared very well. This in essence is the conclusion of many of those who were surprised of the flooding that took away millions of pesos of infrastructure damages and more than a hundred lives.  Because we thought that PAGASA forecasts are not worth learning, most of us were caught una... Continue reading ...
This past two days we saw the great swell of water that flooded Marikina, Rizal, Bulacan and 23 other provinces that could only be described as catastrophic in nature. Typhoons and hurricanes represent one of the most potent forces of nature that could ever bring disaster on earth. With an average of 20 typhoons passing all over the country, there is no doubt that it takes a great faith and patience to truly build something of value and wonder in our country specially in Luzon and parts of Vi...

My wife suddenly had uncontrollable spasms in her stomach on the
midnight of September 5. It begun last September 3 during the night
after we just finished celebrating the 2nd birthday of our toddler
Germane Amber. We thought that her spasms were simple stomach aches. My
wife also told me that it was different already because our first child
was born premature at 8 months last September 3, 2007 in Davao.
Her labor of spasms were unknown to her because when Germane was
born, she got spotting ... Continue reading ...
One of the questions we face when trials come upon our ways is whether God is really with us all the way or He has simply left us to suffer alone. Recently I faced one of the toughest trials yet that I have faced on earth, I almost lost my son because of sepsis. During our stay in Germany, it was our plan that my wife give birth in a decent hospital that would care for her and our baby. It is hard to imagine, much more to compare the difference of treatment between what one receives in a Germ... Continue reading ...
Joshua, the Lord’s leader of the Israelite Army has grown
too old already for war and there are still many lands undistributed
and lands to conquer. Thus, he finally instructed his comrades and the
next generation of Israelite army who had been fighting to gain land
and territory in Canaan (Promised Land) saying:
“Now therefore, put away the foreign gods which are in your
midst, and incline your hearts to the LORD, the God of Israel.” And the
people said to Joshua, “We will serve the ... Continue reading ...

About me
| Edison Macusi |
| Tabuk, Kalinga Philippines |
Our heartbeat is to disciple the youth of this generation and be a prophetic voice that declares the power of God to change men's heart, even the most evil to become the foremost saints of the Lord and take the land for His honor and glory and hasten the appearance of His Kingdom on earth as it is in heaven. Our main purpose is to publish articles, books and preachings that will not only stir the hearts of men to seek the Lord but to equip them so that they will become firebrands of revival and healing wherever they move and set their feet upon. The promise is sure, to them who will give their lives for His utmost purposes, He is able to fill them with His Spirit without measure!
