OBEY THE RULES

I’ve always wanted to be the MC (Master of Ceremony) but I was never chosen by my teachers. So sad…

But one day, my dreams came true! It all happened on the 19th of May, 2009. One of the rules of my school says that you must go and line up after recess and you cannot go to your classroom alone. The library of my school is on the 1st floor while the place where I’m supposed to line up is at the ground floor. When I was coming back from the library, I was wondering should I go and line up or straight away go to my classroom. Alas, I decided to follow the right way. When I went downstairs one of my friend suddenly asked me: “Do you want to be the MC of the Chinese Language Story Telling Competition?” I was so surprised and I quickly nod my head.

See, if you follow the rules and obey God, don’t disappoint Him, He will bless you! But don’t do these things just to get the benefit!

BREAKTHROUGH YOUR FEARS!

Do you hate cockroaches? No? Yes? Well I hate, I hate them a lot!!! They are like creepy crawlies, with brown and dirty bodies, yuck!!!

Maybe you think that by “hating” them, I will always beat them, right? But, I’m different, I don’t dare to walk close them, they must be at least 10km away from me!

This few weeks, Sis. Kim Suan taught us that as breakthrough believers, you must breakthrough your fears. And I never took notice of that word. But then, on 17th of May, I saw an extra large cockroach in the kitchen, I was very frightened that I jumped and screamed: “Cockroach! Big cockroach! Daddy!” But my dad was not there that time. I actually wanted to run upstairs but then what Sis. Kim Suan taught us suddenly came to my mind, I quickly snatched a big stack of news paper and beat the cockroach, unfortunately, I lost the fight with the cockroach!

But instead of being disappointed, I was happy because I finally breakthrough my fear of cockroaches!

GOD'S WORD NEVER FADES AWAY

I still remember, last year I received the following prophecies from my pastor, Ps. Paul Kim.

1. I'm not to be easily shaken by what men say.
2. God wants to give me the understanding through His words.
3. God said, He will open my eyes and mind to see.

These 3 prophecies became so alive especially in my current situation.
Whoa!! I just don't know how to articulate my feelings in words except to say it's so real and great!
Upon receiving these prophecies, I did not see it come into fulfillment immediately. It really took me some time to realize that these words were coming into fulfillment now right before my very eyes.

When these prophecies spoken to me, I really have no idea what is it until the day I finished my National Service, I started to realize every of the prophecies revealed itself to me day by day. God's word NEVER fade away but always REMAINS!!!

My testing period came when I had to make a decision on choosing my course for further studies. During this period, I have a lot of doubt it my mind and my heart. When Sis Kim Suan and my brother in Christ, Edwin begin to speak to me, I realize that I've always depended on myself and my own mind/wisdom but not on God's words. It was at this time, I begin to see His words of prophecy about "understanding" coming into fulfillment as I begin to see and understand of His ways for my very life.

Finally, I chose a course and I will never regret in this decision of mine. I won't be affected or shaken by what other people say because one thing I am assured is that "God will prosper me in every area of my life."

Actually I have so many things that I would like to share that has happen just within this year 2009 itself as the list is endless.....haha
But I really thank God that as I yield to Him, He is always at work in my life everyday. I begin to see, my very life day by day being aligned to His very purpose. GOD IS GREAT!!!

YOU ARE THE CHANNEL FOR HEALING

Last Friday, we were praying for two request from our cell members.
1. Sis. Loo Sing mom needed healing for hypertension. She has been on prescribed medication but still could not control her blood pressure.
2. Sis. Lin Ing's husband, Bro. Wong for sprained neck.

All of us gathered and begin to just declare God's healing upon them. All of us were just ordinary members, there were no pastors nor elders among us. But we remembered what our pastor,
Ps. Paul Kim has taught us that anyone can just pray for healing and be the very channel to release healing just by speaking the word of God.

Operating on God's level of faith, we begin to declare God's word in a simple manner through prayer. Sunday as we met up in church, we received the following news:-

1. Sis. Loo Sing's mom is healed from her hypertension. She checked her blood pressure and it's within the normal range and no longer need any medication.
2. Bro. Wong's neck has recovered alot and he feels much better now.

Bro. Wong in super health pose! :D

Praise God!!! for His awesome works. We trust that these news would encourage you to speak and declare His words of healing to those who are sick and unwell. As any believer can lay their hands and pray for the sick, we do not have to wait for our pastor or leader but we, believers can do it too!!

IF GOD IS FOR US, WHO CAN BE AGAINST US?

I waited 3 months to write this amazing news.

A little background of myself: I am a fresh graduate, majoring in Chemistry. 3 months ago, I joined an international market research company for a 3-months internship. Even though it was an internship but I was well paid as an intern. :)

I was placed in the Electronics & Security Department and was in charge of researching the China, Taiwan and Hong Kong markets. In the course of completing tasks given, I undertook extensive translation work (Mandarin to English) whilst conducting Primary and Secondary research. It is something I never did before in my life! I can list down other 101 challenges I faced within this 3 months.

God is great! It wasn’t a smooth sailing from the day I sent in my resume. My boyfriend said: “It takes a rough sea to make a good sailor”. I know clearly deep in me that God has a plan for me in this industry, if I would to tell you in detail of my experience with God in these 3 months, I need to tell you face to face! Because it is so exciting!!! I can’t describe myself here in words!!

All I do is to hold on to what He told me in the beginning. It wasn’t much. He just told me to take this job. As I continue to walk in His path, He reveals more things to me. Like WOAHHHHHH!!! Everyday is like a magical day!

“Trust in the Lord with ALL your heart and lean NOT on your own understanding; In ALL ways, acknowledge Him and He shall direct your path”
Proverbs 3: 5-6

I have just ended my 3 months internship and will be starting my new contract with the company tomorrow!! God is great! During this current economy situation, the company freezes their recruitment. As for me, I am exception! My team members and supervisors want to keep me because I have proven myself during the 3 months internship. And for my sake, God intervened! New business came in even during bad times! That’s why I am the only intern who got hired!! And I get 100% increment! Even my colleague was shock with the amount!!

Isn’t God amazing!!!!!! I waited for 3 months to see this to come into fulfillment! And for me to shout out loud that whatever God says WILL NOT be in vain!!!! His word is powerful!!!!! Sis.KimSuan told me, I actually don’t need to wait! I should declare and tell the whole world even right at the beginning itself!!! Because we knew for sure it will happen!!!!

So who says the economy downfall can bring us down? “What then shall we say of these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?” Romans 8:31

2 YEARS KNEE INJURY HEALED

Yes, God healed my 2 years knee injury!!!

I was on the way to the hospital this morning to get an X-ray for my knee injury; while waiting for the bus I do some stretching for my knee and to my surprise, no matter how I stretch or twist my knee, there is no more pain!!! :D~

The injury happened 2 years ago when I fell down and hit my left knee directly on the tile. Back then it was more serious where I can't stand after I squad or sit - my left knee was totally weak. I went for physiotherapy and Chinese massage, the pain reduces but it never goes off 100%.

I remember I just make a simple prayer for my knee, telling God how worry I am about the condition of my knee; To be exact, I was actually having a casual conversation with Him only, and healing take place!

Wooohooo~!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I really can't describe the joy God put in my heart!!!!!!

I'VE THE PEACE OF GOD AND FULL CONFIDENCE!

Whenever my exams are coming (especially a day before it), I would always feel very stressful. I would study very hard even when my eyes are going to shut and my brain thinks of my nice, warm, comfortable bed.

But this time, I noticed that it’s different. I wasn’t a bit stressful or nervous a day before my exams! It was just light and easy. I have the peace and full confidence within me! Even when the exam paper is in front of me, I was still smiling and not having sweat dripping down from my head or my palm.

I’m sooo happy because I’ve finally develop the peace of God and full confidence in myself!

TOGETHER WE CAN REACH OUR DESTINATION

Last week on the 30th April, I was in Kuala Lipis For 3 days.The trip was organized by our church Triumphant Christian Centre. There were 13 of us who went for this trip.

On the 2nd day all of us was given a exciting ride on a 4X4 Jeep to one of the waterfall up on the mountain side. It was an exciting adventure for me.

Because of my disabilities I sat in front and the rest have to stand at the back of the Jeep. Through this ride I can see how the driver overcome all the obstacles and get us to reach our destination.

I thank God for this experience on the Jeep.Because the Jeep can’t stop right in front of the waterfall all of us have to get down from the jeep and walk a short distance to reach the waterfall.

I trie to walk on crutches but it is very difficult for me. Finally Nicholas, Bro Wong, Eric and Bro Bruce all had to take turn to carry me. I thank God for each one of them because it is not easy to carry me but they did it anyway.Through this I learn by myself I can't reach the destination but together we can.

This applies to our walk with Christ Jesus, our Lord. Perhaps you may not have disabilities that I have but we all have our limitations. We need each other to carry us through to our destination in Christ .We can’t walk this journey on our own in Christ.

BETTER RESULT

Last year, my exams result was not so good. The reason is because I didn’t put in the effort to study. However this year, when the teacher gave us the monthly test, I scored a better result. Before that, I was telling God that I desired to changed of my ways and begin to put the effort to study so that I can get good results.When monthly test results was released, I was so happy because I did well. Praise God!
