𝐖𝐞𝐝𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐇𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐭: 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐀𝐫𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐒𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐆𝐨𝐝’𝐬 𝐖𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐬

Pastor Demsin Gasper delivered an inspiring message during the Wednesday Habit on August 19, emphasizing the importance of living a life in the fear of the Lord and allowing God to guide every aspect of one’s life.

Anchored on Proverbs 1:7, “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge,” Pastor Gasper explained that fearing God does not mean being afraid of Him. Instead, it means having a deep respect, reverence, and honor for God, demonstrated through obedience to His Word and commandments.

He highlighted the difference between a wise person and a foolish person. According to the message, a wise person fears the Lord, listens to His instruction, and follows His commandments, while a foolish person rejects wisdom and refuses to listen to God.

Pastor Gasper also connected the message to Deuteronomy 6:24, which teaches the importance of fearing God and keeping His commandments. He emphasized that God’s instructions are given for the benefit and well-being of His people. The common message of these biblical teachings is that the fear of the Lord is beneficial to us because it leads us toward wisdom, righteousness, and a meaningful relationship with God.

He encouraged everyone to live in the fear of God all day long, emphasizing that reverence for the Lord should not be limited to worship services. Rather, it should be reflected in daily thoughts, decisions, words, and actions.

A person who truly fears God, Pastor Gasper explained, turns away from sin and chooses to live according to God's will. Such a person becomes more conscious of doing what is right and avoids actions that dishonor God. The fear of the Lord is also manifested through respect and love for other people.

Pastor Gasper further emphasized several characteristics of people who fear God: turning away from sin, choosing righteousness, obeying God's commandments, respecting others, and allowing God to direct their lives. He reminded the congregation that genuine faith should be visible through actions and not merely through words.

He also stressed the importance of accepting Jesus Christ wholeheartedly. When Jesus is truly in a person's heart, His presence should influence the person's thoughts, desires, decisions, and actions. The transformation within the heart should eventually become evident in the way a person lives.

“Let God drive your life,” Pastor Gasper reminded everyone, encouraging everyone to surrender their plans and decisions to God and allow Him to take control of their lives.

The message concluded with a reminder that the fear of the Lord is not about living in terror but about living with reverence, obedience, respect, and surrender. By fearing God, turning away from sin, keeping His commandments, and allowing Him to lead, people can walk in wisdom and live a life that honors Him.

Through Pastor Gasper’s message, the Wednesday Habit served as a meaningful reminder that when God is at the center of one’s life, His wisdom can guide every step of the journey.

Both Catholic and Christian faith reunited in CNHS. On January 28, a Holy Mass was held once again in CNHS covered court, bringing together students, teachers, and staff in a moment of prayer and reflection. The celebration allowed the school community to pause from their daily activities and come together in faith.

The Mass was presided over by the Rev. Fr. Armando P. Alpas Jr who delivered a meaningful homily during the celebration. In his homily, he emphasized the importance of having an "open heart" and to examine our hearts.

The Holy Mass once again served as a reminder of the importance of faith, unity, and gratitude. It was a meaningful experience that strengthened the bond among members of the school community and inspired everyone to live with compassion and responsibility.

Meanwhile, a workship service for christians was also held. The theme “Commitment to Follow Jesus” was meaningfully shared during the gathering. Anchored in Romans 8:35–39, the message reminded everyone that nothing—neither trials, hardships, nor any circumstance in life—can separate us from the love of God that is found in Christ Jesus. This truth calls believers to remain firm and faithful in their commitment to follow Him.

The program was led by Pastor Demsin Gasper, together with Pastor July Agustin, while the main speaker was Pastor Francisco Alipoon from Mountain View Baptist Church. In his message, Pastor Alipoon emphasized the importance of our daily choices in our walk with God. He shared the line, “Kung ano ang aton gipanggas, amo mana ang aton anihon,” reminding us that our choices shape our future. When we sow goodness and obedience, God allows blessings to grow in His time.

A special number was rendered by Angel Remegio and Nikkie Bargamento, together with Pastor July Agustin, which added inspiration and depth to the program. As the message ended, Pastor Alipoon left everyone with a powerful and personal question: “Are you saved?”—a question that challenged each listener to reflect on their faith and true commitment to following Jesus.
