12 December 2010 Sunday Sermon

Woke up late again today... These few days are really tiring, went to NCC 2nd service, and today's pastor in-charge is Pastor Lin, a female pastor. Her sermon is about Joy, God wants us to rejoices and celebrate, and keep your Joy, don't let go of your Joy no matter what comes to you, because in Isaiah 12:3 "With joy you will draw water from the wells of salvation."

So to my dear friends and family, don't let negative emotions, anger, unforgiveness, hatred, lies, regrets, bitterness, don't let them control you, don't let go of your Joy. If things ever happen to drag you down, Genesis 26 :19-22 said Issac's servants dug a well and there's flowing water, then was taken by other people, well of Esek (dispute), they went and dug another well, but was taken by other people again, well of Sitnah (Opposition), and they went and dug another well, this time, those people never take their wells, Issac name the well Rehoboth (room), and he said, God has given them room and they will flourish.

We should learn from Issac, let go of all the disputes and oppositions, we don't have to deal with them, let them go, as we let them go, we let our heart free from worries and pressures, and look to the cross, Jesus is standing there, always, waiting for us to call him, to ask him for help, ask him to be with us.

With joy you will draw water from the wells of salvation, put your faith on Jesus, and believe him, even though everything is against you, but remember God favors us, Jesus loves us, just let Jesus take away your burden, when you're tired, Jesus let him handle the things, and believe in him, and rest...

PS: I'm resting too :-P

The Power of Word, The Power of Healing, The Power of God

Today woke up and I got stuck on my bed, my bed loved me so much that it doesn't want me to go anywhere. Well I got up anyways, attended the 2nd service, I remembered that there's a pastor from US a gonna preach to us, but I forgot what is it about, his name is Richard Roberts, son of Oral Roberts, ministry of healing. He gave a lot of testimonies, about how people were healed through "touch".

Healing is one of the gifts from God, and here he is, Richard Roberts, the one that gonna help us, to learn how to use the word of God, to heal people. There 3 methods to heal people, 1st, by touching. Through your hands, and faith, you're passing God's power from God into him/her, and pray in the authority of Jesus Christ, ask the thing to come out from the person. Well I did that with a lady, she was shy =.=lll then I have to reach my hands to hers, and I prayed for her, then she told me she felt something when into her. LOL! not dirty things of course. I can feel that there's a flow from me towards her. 2nd methods is by sending the word, is the same thing as the 1st method, just that, you imagine that, you're sending something, like you're sending powers, here is your faith, send your faith into that person, and pray in the name of Jesus Christ and rebuke the negative. 3rd method is like what they show in the movie, the holy water, or oil or clothes, you pray and imagine you put your prayers into the object, and let the person receives it. Of course, everything happens because of God not us. It is God that heals the sick and rebuke the devil, but we as believers, we have to believe and have faith in our prayers, and believes that our prayers will happen.

Prayers doesn't need to be long and naggy, come to God boldly and righteous, and believes in Him that He is the Almighty God, which makes impossible into possible.

Purpose

God's plan or my plan? This is a big question, that I always...always ask myself, is it this is what God wants me to do, is this where God want me to go? God has a plan for us, everyone of us, has a plan, has a purpose in this life, to fulfill. I have been a christian for 5 years, after I baptised. But ironically I still looking for the purpose in my life.

Jeremiah 29:11, God has a plan for us, it is to bless us, to help us, to give us hope and future, not to harm us. So even now if I lost everything, I know, it is part of His plan, even though I have to suffer, I will endure, because this is His plan, I will follow His plan, to make God happy. God cares about us, everyone of us is special in His eyes, everyone of us is important to Him.

Any future plans you asked? Nah... I don't have plans for myself, because I don't need to, God already planned everything for me before I even born, why should I bother to plan for myself when the Almighty God, the king of kings, the lord of lords, the one who created this universe, planned for me, and all I have to do is, follow, because I know where I'm going after this life, back to Him, so I don't really bother about what happen if I die, this world won't bother about me, why should I bother about this world? This world has rejected my Lord, my Savior, my Brother Jesus Christ, who is the only Son of God, so there is no way that they won't reject me.

God, I know You listens to my prayer, every one of them, You loves me, You cares about me, even though it takes me to hate You, You still loves me when I realised that, You did all the things just to protect me. I have faith that in You my God, my Father, You are the Almighty One that nothing is impossible in You, You planned for us, our role, our purpose, to glorify and magnify Your Name, there is an incredible joy in me, when I felt Your presence, when I heard Your voice, its like, Father calling me, and I shall happily reply with yes.
