Bread & Wine= Body & Blood

Shalom,

It has been scourging hot in the day time and when come to evening, it has been pouring cats & dogs.

To be very frank, I started John- 6:56 w/o any revelation. In fact, I have not been partaking the Holy Communion regularly of late, and shame on me is my ribena (Jesus resembled blood) ran out......
And there's where the Holy spirit got my attention. I began searching high & low for any phrase saying that the cup Jesus holds was filled with any red liquid! To my amaze, there wasn't any statement stating that.

Yes! & I know the Holy Spirit given me no excuse for not partaking even if I ran out of resources. So long, by faith, I partake anything in Jesus name, I will get it...... Yes, & my next writing will be related to this paragraph....

See ye.

In Jesus almighty name, AMEN!

John- 3:16-17

The recent Passover has been a very different one as compared to my previous 36 years.....

I will never comprehend the true meaning behind every Good Friday until John- 3:16-17 come into me. I truly believe He has redeemed me from all my sins- once & for all on that faithful day, 2010 years ago. All our sins, past, present & future had been fully paid for by Jesus precious blood!
Thus, start appreciating our freedom, for His amazing grace has flooded through that broken wall and set us free! If God only remember our sins, there's no need for Jesus, His precious Son, to die our death. Hence, rather then self-reproach, why not approach the Throne of grace and live the Shalom life?

I m one very classical example to many who are still living under condemnations. In my previous life, I always finds my life full of guilts, condemnations and curses. It resulted me always murmuring against all my surroundings and led me to low self-esteem.
BUT, the very day I know how much Jesus love me when He was being scourged, striped, humiliated, wore my crown of thorns on my behalf. I know, my curses has surely ended on the Cross, He heavily carried, when He shouted "It is finished"!

Praise be it with God, for He always lead me in triumphs in Christ, and through me, diffuses the fragrance of His knowledge in all places. I now sees things I have never experience in my previous life and I know that I was dead and is alive, was lost and is found.

Hallelujah, Thank You Jesus for loving me & dying for me on the cross. Your precious blood washes me clean of every sin. You are my Lord and my Saviour, now and forever. I believe that You rose from the dead and that You are alive today. Because of Your finished work, I am now a beloved child of God and heaven is my home. Thank You for giving me eternal life, and filling my heart with Your peace and joy. 
Amen, Amen and Amen!

From Your beloved prodigal son.

214=7 (Peace, Perfect & Rest!)

Shalom,

Great is our Lord, our God, whom always lead us in triumph.. Yes, that was my last message here.

Peace
How many of us can agreed that when God sends you His message, He communicate to your understandings? Well, just two days ago, He brought me back to this verse "For He Himself is our peace"! Wow, the Holy Spirit first told me that I am not useless for I m His diffuser of His fragrance of His Knowledge to every place. Now He further calm me using 2:14 but on Ephesian to show me Shalom!

Perfect
The best thing is that I have already encountered His sign during my infant period in Christ. Praise be it to God, He knows being a human, we needs constant reminder of who we are. As battery run flat & need a recharge, God recharges me constantly by a pat on my back as an acknowledgement!

Rest
Thank You Father, for Your unfailing love which always surrounds me, for my hope is in You, alone.

Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah!

Your most beloved child in Christ.....

Diffuser of His fragrance..

Shalom,

Was reading Proverbs when the Holy Spirit spoke to me on "when anyone (me) is in Christ, he (me) is a new creation... so I thought that was 2 Corinthians- 5:17

But God didnt juz stop here, He probed me to look into 2:14- 
"Now thanks be to God, who always leads us in triumph in Christ, 
and through us diffuses the fragrance of His knowledge in every place."

HEY, I m so honor to be His trusted knowledge diffuser! 
And in the bible, it clearly stated diffuses the fragrance (& not awful smell)! 
Meaning to say the fragrance is of good, just like the good Gospel to the world! 
And God specifically phrased this after leading us (me) in triumph in Christ! 
Wow, what's more to say, my blessings are here and, 
I am diffusing the fragrance of His knowledge, good Gospel, through the web to you (in every place as the bible states)!

Hallelujah, I rejoice! You? Proclaim this is for you too! 

Jesus says: "For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them (of us)!"

I m blessed above all things, are you?

Amen!

Unbelieving Believer

Shalom,

God is great and He is above all things we can ever think of.

I just wanna elaborate on how God has continued to assure and re-assure me from time to time again.

It all started with a 2nd svc yesterday (And we were exactly one hour late for the svc!) 
As the saying goes: “Time & tide wait for no man!” 
BUT.... with God, there will always be a right timing  for us.” 
As we were being ushered to our seats @ the already full Gallery West, 
Prince starts feeding his message @ the same time! (See, right place, right timing!)

Anyway, Prince shared on their recent Israel trip's pictures and their encountered, nothing very particular until certain points where he said that the now word is “Meditation”! 
In fact, we were feeding on his words (like those cattles feeding @ the foot of Mt Arbel, Standing and exposed to the open- RESTLESS). 
What God want is for us to be RESTFUL and chewing on the grass in a reclining (RESTFUL) position; like meditating on the wordings of certain verse until we extract the essence of it!
Well, I thought his words are for everyone in the church. Not until when he cited my favourite PSALM 23 for illustration and quoted John 10:10 (one of Olivia Lum's favourite verse).

Prince also mentioned something very powerful which I can just hear God’s voice behind me telling, “And son, this is for you.
Here is what Prince said: “Olivia clinched on to two of her favourite verses all these years, and she uses these two verses to overcome all her fears and situations. Aren’t we glad that these two verses got to her first before THE “UNBELIEVING” BELIEVER GET TO HER!

Hallelujah, it is just like the Holy Spirit is telling me that I already have all the verse in my hands, I can utilise my power & authority over demons, scribes, prophets and to the extend of “unbelieving” believer!

O come on, Jesus has already redeemed us from curses and every mishap, stop condemning myself and walk in His brilliant way!

Abba Father, thank You & thank You for always being with me….. O yes, without further a-do, I went back for 3rd svc for further meditations... Hallelujah!

Your utmost beloved,

Chia

有型的是金钱,无型的是祝福!

Lord Jesus,

Thank You for Your constant presence in me. Thank You for leading me to one similar yet familiar character, whom embraces the Gospel of Grace and finally back into Your shelving wings.

I chanced upon one Taiwanese TV Channel of Christ and got to watch an interview of Eric Moo. Yes, during my teenage years, his songs had accompanied me almost every hour of those years, hence many fond memories.... & I m more 'agreeable' that he is someone I m familiar with!

But why similar? He is successful, so popular in the industry.. what has the two of us have in common?

The answer is obvious, it is Christ Jesus!
Eric used to shut his door off the Gospel of Christ, SO DO I!
Eric used to pay no attention to the fellowships around him, SO DO I!
Eric used to mock and teased anything about Christ, SO DO I!
And most importantly, we both didn't enbraced Jesus, until after we formed our individual family and our children! Hallelujah!

Don't you think our God is a great God?
He always have the right thing for us @ the right timing!
Should we have come into Christ in our earlier age,
we may not have the right teachers for our understandings;
we may find Christianity, a difficult path to follow;
we may not have embraced to the message of Grace; and
we may just depart God like lucifer did!

Abba Father, I thank You.
Despite of all my iniquities, You forgives me.
Despite of my inabilities and weaknesses, You strengthen me.
Despite of being a hand pointing all my transgressions,
You lead me out of the darkness and
direct me to the Your light.

O yes, in Eric's interview, they mentioned about:
有型的是金钱,无型的是祝福!

For my English speaking brethren, it means:-
His great love to you "in visible" may be prosperity, 
& "invisible" will be great blessings! 

O great is the name, our Abba Father, Jesus Christ.

Amen!

Jesus is just a prayer away.....

Shalom and Jesus be with you,

Many a time, we do or rather we do not know what to pray during our worship to Him.
In Luke-11, Jesus teaches the prayer to the Father..


"Our Father in heaven,
 Hallowed be Your name.
 Your kingdom come,
 Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven.

 Give us day by day our daily bread.

 And forgive us our sins,
 For we also forgive everyone who is indebted to us.
 And do not lead us into temptation,
 But deliver us from the evil one."

Do you find yourself in better peace now? 

For me, "hee hee hee", I m someone whom can't remember long messages, will do the direct way... THAT is to "talk" to the Lord. Many a time, we stammered because we tried to remember scripts or trying hard to get words out of our mouth. 

I've learned to say whatever in my mind even if is with simple words. Alternatively, is to speak to Him in an unknown tongue, words I myself do not understand too.... but do not despise the power of  this speaking!

Hallelujah, so long these words are from your mind, it will be heard by our Abba Daddy, our Lord, our God and most importantly, our SAVIOUR! Like the pictures above, Jesus is just a prayer away!

Amen... Father, Amen!

Victorious Livings


My dear Brethren,

Shalom and God’s devine blessings to you.

In Luke- 9:44, Jesus said: "Let these words sink down into your ears, for the Son of Man is about to be betrayed into the hands of men."

It has never occur to me that Jesus has passed on His power of healing to us, we can be of great healing ability by His name! O you of little faith, look @ the context before this verse!

In verse 38 to 40, it showed us a man was seeking Jesus to cast out the demon of his only son due to the incapability of His disciples.

Then in verse 41, Jesus mentioned two very important notes:-
a)      O faithless and perverse generation,”
b)      How long shall I be with you and bear with you

It is always our unbelieves or rather, we don’t think we have His holy power, we lost whatever battle we are in!

And the most crucial part is on verse 42, when Jesus rebuked the unclean spirit, healed the child, and gave him back to his father. Brothers and sisters, this is what Jesus wants us to “sink down into our ears”. We are the righteousness of God in Christ and we have the power to cast out demons and heal the sicks!

Be of good cheers, brethren! The greatest demon is in you and only His Cross in you will lead to victorious livings! For it is written that It is the power of God unto salvation!

Father Jesus, as You are, so am I in this world! Be unto me according to Your word!

Amen!

To die or to sleep?

Shalom,

Was reading on Matthew 5:39- When He came in, He said to them, “Why make this commotion and weep? The child is not dead, but sleeping.” 
My mind flashed back to a recent sermon Pastor preached....that whoever in Christ will not die, we just sleep... And in the case of Jairus daughter, she also went into sleep. 


Hallelujah, I was about to die when a precious brother- Jimmy Hendrix, brought  me to live (Jesus) and given me sleep (REST). 


Thank You Lord, for never forsaking a sick soul like me. Abba, let me be one sinner You can use to be of blessings to many others thru Your will.....


Let it be according to Your words.....

Heart and Hut

Shalom,

Feel His presence flowing in me and filling His anointing into me.....

Juz the other day, I recalled one of my message last year (here) and suddenly the Lord given me these words:-

"Son, guard your heart and I'll guard your hut."

Hey, I tink anyone need no further explanations than this..... I rest in Him, rest yours too...

Shalom.

For what purpose did Jesus come forth?

Shalom brethrens,

Time really flies especially under the mercy of His grace!

Hey, I was doing my bible reading plan and today is on 1st chapter of Mark. I tumbled across this verse and couldn't agreed more to it... on verse 38. Yes, if it is not for Him, I wouldn't be able to receive the Gospel. And if not for the Gospel, I would still be a normal gentile hanging around like a man without a soul.

Thank You Jesus, Thank You for becoming the Flesh to us, for the bible in John- 1: 1 & 14 says so.....

I m so glad that I hear the Gospel and believe in Him, I pray to You  that many more will be hearing of You and be saved!

I Thank You Lord Jesus, for not forsaking a sick soul like I was. Hence, You can accept me, You can accept many more whom are much better than me.... just by one touch of Your hem, they will be saved!

Halelujah for IT IS for this REASON You have come forth.

Amen.

To Live is Christ

Hee Hee Hee,

Just a short one b4 I forgot again....

Recently saw this sentence-

With devil, your live will be reversed into lived (devil spell from the back)...

Hence, I still prefer His Holy ways- To live is Christ!

Amen!

Prayer

Shalom,

I can't wait to share my further understandings of the verse Proverbs- 9:10.

Boy, I have never experienced something so simple yet so powerful. Imagine I was going into a customer's place for some errands. Due to certain issues, I hope not to see the in-charge yesterday (as I wasn't very prepare to meet her yet). Hence, I was looking up on proverbs for wisdom just in case she was there..... And yes, b4 I step into their building, I was praying very hard to the Lord for wisdom!
Guess what happened the next moment? The whole office wasn't there and only Susanne was there to hand me something (which was my errand)! The whole office had been sent to their plant @ Jurong Island! Immediately, I know it was God who made this possible, for this has never happened b4 in the ten years I served this company!

Hallelujah, praise to Jesus, who made everything possible! Best of all, He never stop there. The Holy Spirit further prompted me to study into Proverbs- 9:10 again.
I saw the whole verse revealed a simple word- Prayer!
Yes, for the fear (worshipping) of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom (His solutions).....
I rest my case and REST in him.....

Abba Daddy, I thank You for your divine wisdom reigning upon me. I fear to You that Your wisdom be unto the world.

Dear Jesus, be unto me according to Your words.

With His Blessings,

Fear of the LORD

Shalom,

And here we are, on the 3rd week of Twenty-Ten! I trust that you are under lots of blessings by our Lord. Amen!

O yes, was reading on Proverbs- 9:10, The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom (NKJV).. Wow, this has really got me looking into the Words again.

Yes, only when you come into the presence of the Lord will you be of the Right mind! I remember my recent addition of a wooden cross in my Voxy recently. It set me thinking of why I can never resist buying cross whenever I sees a good One? While others sense security and feels more a Christian by wearing or hanging a cross.
But to me, it was just a sense of Him being with me, each time I look on the cross! To be very frank, I m just like many out there, impatience on many road trips. In my latest addition, I saw myself looking @ the Cross more often then usual and endurance to the many motorists is just a breeze. Better still, I saw how frustrated and lacked of peace I was previously!


Hallelujah, a small & simple cross which Jesus heavily carried  on my behalf, give me great peace! (Why didn't I look towards it any sooner?)

Yes, I still wanna remind you to be @ REST, and His Shalom be with you... always!

God blessed! Amen!

Under His Wonderful Work, It always works!

Shalom brethrens,


We are now in the 2nd week of 2010, times flies under God's grace..


Was having a conversation with brother- Silas Heng, after his virgin fellowship session organized @ his place on Saturday evening. 
Through his advice, I've learnt to have a reading plan and be close to Him daily. Hence, we promised one another to share with each other of our learnings. 


And in today's reading, His below works catches my attention and I wanna share this blessings to you as well...


In Matthew 11:2- The blind see and the lame walk; the lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear; the dead are raised up and the poor have the gospel preached to them. And blessed is he who is not offended because of Me.


Hallelujah, aren't we glad to have a Messiah to preach to us, a Mediator to come before God for us and a loving Father whom died for us? Like my last sharing, "If you see Jesus in His Grace, He sees you in your faith. 
Fasten your belt and be under His wings now and forever....


I love you and I hope you will love too... Stay blessed!


Amen.

His Grace, your faith

Shalom brethrens,

My prayer to you that you will be blessed, stay healthy and be prosperous through the riches of His grace....

Talking about His grace, I was reading page 278, Destined To Reign, the bold wordings captured my attention. "When you see Jesus in His grace, He will sees you in your faith". Ps Prince further uses the woman with the issue of blood for twelve years, to illustrate what the power of faith can produce..


In one of my post last year, I mentioned that many whom knew me were be taken aback of me walking the Cristo life. It has always been in my heart to tell them that it's a process one need to experience himself. In fact, I told myself, there's nothing I can use to express what I experienced. But here it is, in bold wordings: "When you see Jesus in His grace, He will sees you in your faith". It just simply speed up my expression and after which, all I need to do was to rest in His grace!

To my "gentile" friends, I pray that you can sees His grace and I will be glad to be a bridging stone for you to your faith.....

I pray that in the year 2010, many more will be in Jesus grace....

Amen.....

R.E.S.T.

Shalom & blessings to you..

B4 last week sermon, I've been re-captivating 2009's do's & done..... results weren't good & I recalled the many tries & end results were :-(
Nevertheless, I recalled Ps Prince reminded us of resting in Him and His finished works, and I asked myself, why didn't I? For He Himself is our Peace & this is one of the verse I learnt during my initial Christianity! Like today's Daily Devotional, Ps Prince asked whether do we add any more strokes to Da Vinci masterpiece... the answer is clear!

Anyway, Ps closed last week sermon with the word REST. It suddenly brewed up inside me the followings- R.E.S.T- Realising Eternal Salvation Thru +!
I felt peaceful but the Holy Spirit further had me some two days back, "Son, do you prefer it to be still doing or to be done?" Again, obvious answer! Why add on to a perfect finished work? Hence, it became clearer to me that Jesus wants me to REST- Redeem Eternal Salvation Thru +!

I REST my case & REST in Him, will you?

So be it according to His words.....

In Jesus name, AMEN!

We are the reason He's born, & He is the Reason we live.

Shalom,

Been wanting to write about my Christmas wishes for you but, one party after another..u know.. Anyway, I am back....

On Christmas eve while waiting for my little boy's carolling, I sms out my Christmas blessings. And I really wanna put it here so that it can reach out to everyone whom trust in our Lord. My message as follows:-

.... I m coming 40 years old in few years time... Unlike previously, X'mas was juz another excuse to be wild.. & this reminds me of the Israelites' 40 years of wilderness. And God promised land after that!
Hallelujah, I m approaching the promised land! The only difference is not with Moses nor Aaron but the One perfect & spotless Man- Jesus Christ!
My brethren, children of God, Jesus was born to die for you and me. And He is the reason we live!

I wish you and family a wonderful & blessed Christmas!

God blessed!

The assurance from God

Shalom!

Wow, another great month has passed by!

Though, I was struggling these days on my bleeding career, God has never stop His presence on me. Despite God's presence, I m still experiencing defeats and debits. But I m happy, for I know, the accuser/ devil, is weary of me, for I m not a dead fish but a living fish with Jesus consciousness heavily. One great thing I learned from my Senior Pastor is that the satan will leave the dead fish alone as dead fish won't struggle. But for us, children of God & Jesus's beloved, the satan is worried! Hence, I know what I m going through are from the accuser and I know through Jesus, I m save & safe and will be sheltered under His wings!

Well, I may sounds optimistic, but I wanna confess! I was being shaken and even contemplated the idea that I've sinned too deeply that God had given up on me. I was in the state of confusion of why m I still suffering! Why m I not getting good response from our Abba Daddy- Jesus Christ? Too many "why's", led to closing of my door to the Gospel of Grace...... not until when I was asking myself is my God forsaking me. AND, exactly when I was having this thought these few weeks, God made me look up into the sky @ 12 midnight moment ago... You will never believe! Up in the sky was a bright round moon, but with a very wide round and clear circle circling the moon! (Well in our Holy book, we know what this represent!) This is the second time I seen such scene! The only difference is that this time it is around the moon!

In all my 37 years, I've never seen such view & I know God is telling me that I m still His beloved! Father Jesus, I thank You for Your re-assurance to me again.

I like to pray for everyone, every siblings-in-Christ, that we are all blessed. In a world full of continuous uncertainties, we need not be weary but He who create us will never sleep nor slumber but keeps blessing us! I also pray that everyone of us are strenghtened, healed, prospered and protected from tme to time.

In Jesus almighty name, AMEN & AMEN!
