On The Streets!!! WooOOOoo HooOOOooo!!!!!!!!
18th July 2009
I was heading for service and I was on the train, doing my usual stuff, soaking in on praise n worship.
There were 2 malay girls sitting opposite from where I was standing, and suddenly I received a movie clip (once again...)
So I wrote her a note: Are you having human relationship problems?
She looked at me shocked.
Then I said,"Boyfriend?"
And she looked at me even more shocked, questioning,"How did you know?"
I told her this,"Jesus showed me, I saw a scene of a guy n girl having conflict of some sorts."
Then she told me she wants to know more about Jesus and she gave me a contact.
I tried to invite her to church but she was busy, so before i left the train, I told her this,"God loves you."
Subsequently, i smsed her to invite her to join me for service next week. I'm really looking forward to bringing her to service this weekend.
PRAISE GOD!
PS. Please read: When Heaven Invades Earth by Bill Johnson... It's such a faith builder!
Lessons learnt:
1) Guys and girls, put your spiritual gifts to use! God gives us gifts for a purpose!!!!!
2) Step out of your comfort zone and spread God's love to the streets, you will realise the harvest is INDEED plentiful.
3) Going beyond human means, and relying on God's sovereign power and love causes Christ to be revealed.
Breakthrough at home!!!!!!!!! WootZ!
11th july 2009 saturday
My dad approached me out of the blue and he asked me if I was serving at church.
So I told him,"Yeps!"
Then he asked me why do I always go downstairs at night.
Then I told him, to pray and to do whatever i need to do so that I won't disturb him.
Then my dad told me,"Okay, you can pray at home, and you can do your praise n worship at home."
So this led to a conversation and I shared with him my life, and about God and he started to have a clearer understanding of what Christianity was all about.
All along, my dad was never opened to God and he didn't like the idea of me practicing Christianity at home.
On 18th July 2009, Saturday, after doing praise n worship at home, I asked my mum if she wanted to see what was happening to our atmosphere at home.
So I laid hands on her and asked God to show it to her.
Then she told me she saw a lot of bright white orbs. Then she went on,"Sometimes I see their faces, they carry different swords, some are female, some are male, and they sing Jesus songs when I sleep. Why are there females and males?"
ROFL HOW COOL IS THAT HUH? LOL!
Then I asked my dad if he wanted to see what my mum saw as well. And he agreed.
So when I lay hands on him to pray for him to have vision, i suddenly received a vision. It showed me a movie clip of 2 men at the workplace having conflict.
And then I asked my dad,"Papa, you having problems with your colleague or workplace?"
Then he was shocked and he tried to cover up saying that it's common problem, after that he asked me how i knew. (My dad never ever talks to me about work stuff, he likes to quietly shoulder everything... that's his personality) Then I told him I saw a movie clip! And I told him it was Jesus who show me movies, pictures and words... :D:D:D
So he asked me to help him pray for his job.
On 19th July 2009, Sunday, my dad suddenly opened up to me, he told me that his manager was giving him a hard time at work.
This is a good start as my dad finally is opening up to me after 24 years of my life! I believe salvation is coming to my household soon!!!!! Weee!!!! Praise God!!!!!!!

Lessons Learnt on Confirmation Anointing
I've been thinking about this question for quite some time. Why do people get different answers for the same questions asked. Is it really because of wrong discernment?
Logically, this is what I've discovered.
1) Revealed knowledge affects confirmation.
For example, if i am seeking God on which church I should be planted in and I have 3 choices:
1) City Harvest
2) FCBC
3) SAC
When I first prayed about it, the answer revealed to me is SAC.
However, subsequently, I come across another available option, example Lighthouse
and I choose to seek confirmation again, this time round my confirmation might be Lighthouse instead.
1 Corinthians 13:9-13
For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears. 11When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. 12Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
Reason being, the more things that God reveals to us, our confirmation will change.
A frog sitting in the well, no matter what confirmations the frog receives is always restricted by the well opening as compared to a frog in the field. The frog in the field has a wider visual range.
2) Decisions and steps of obedience and disobedience affects confirmation.
This is the variable part of man. As we make prophesy in parts, the rest is up to the person him/herself to decide whether or not to walk in obedience or disobedience. An example is a man driving on the road, if he makes a wrong turn, the next stage of the prophetic direction will be direly different from what is originally given to him. Think in terms of the butterfly effect.
So for example
Stage 1:
Man receives prophesy that he will take up job offer, ceter paribus.
2 choices are available:
choice 1, man takes up job offer
choice 2, man refuses job offer
Stage 2:
Route A: Man takes up job offer. Now man receives another prophetic direction that he will evangelise out to his colleagues.
Route B: Man refuses offer. Now man receives another prophetic direction that he will receive another job.
The whole underlying point here is there is no such thing as a fixed prophecy, because man is always the variable factor and present prophesy is always build up upon past decisions. That's how the prophesy in part comes into play.
3) Grey areas of confirmation anointing:
a) Willingness of person to listen which will result in neutrality or the lack of impartiality.
b) Interpretation
c) Closeness of relationship with the person who gives u the confirmation anointing. Are you open to receive confirmation from strangers or family members? This results in lack of impartiality.

prayer
Lord,
I lift up the entire situation into your hands. Teach them obedience onto you, and not to fear man. Show them how to pass the tests. Show them the difference between obedience to You and submission to authority. i ask that you instill a hunger for you into the hearts of your people, so that they will seek your face, so that they will test everything instead of swallowing it wholesale. That your people will always come back to check with you if it is true, and if indeed, for what season, for what purpose, that they will check the timespan with you Lord. Lord I also ask for more clarity. Reveal your plans to them at the right time. Tear down all the idols in their lives, example, reputation, ministry, fear of man, positions, power, leadership, authority, whatever that is hindering them from coming closer to you. At the end of the day, all these positions and title are not important in your sight, what you want Father is our hearts. Open up their minds and hearts to understanding. Lord i pray that your people will FEAR you ONLY, that they would rather do what is right in your eyes even if it means losing everything that they currently have. For Lord, this is the beauty of your plan. Lord i pray that you show your people the beauty of surrendering all and losing all, only to find you in the end. That indeed it is true, your wisdom mocks even the wisest of all men. That out of thousands, you picked 300 of the WEAKEST in the eyes of man to become victorious. Meantime i pray that your people will also have the correct knowledge of you God, let the correct foundations of Jesus be laid on in our lives through your Word.
i thank you Lord for hearing my prayers,
in Jesus name i pray, Amen

A Living Sacrifice to God
Romans 12
1 And so, dear brothers and sisters,[a] I plead with you to give your bodies to God because of all he has done for you. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice—the kind he will find acceptable. This is truly the way to worship him.[b] 2 Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.
3 Because of the privilege and authority[c] God has given me, I give each of you this warning: Don’t think you are better than you really are. Be honest in your evaluation of yourselves, measuring yourselves by the faith God has given us.[d] 4 Just as our bodies have many parts and each part has a special function, 5 so it is with Christ’s body. We are many parts of one body, and we all belong to each other.
6 In his grace, God has given us different gifts for doing certain things well. So if God has given you the ability to prophesy, speak out with as much faith as God has given you. 7 If your gift is serving others, serve them well. If you are a teacher, teach well. 8 If your gift is to encourage others, be encouraging. If it is giving, give generously. If God has given you leadership ability, take the responsibility seriously. And if you have a gift for showing kindness to others, do it gladly.
9 Don’t just pretend to love others. Really love them. Hate what is wrong. Hold tightly to what is good. 10 Love each other with genuine affection,[e] and take delight in honoring each other. 11 Never be lazy, but work hard and serve the Lord enthusiastically.[f] 12 Rejoice in our confident hope. Be patient in trouble, and keep on praying. 13 When God’s people are in need, be ready to help them. Always be eager to practice hospitality.
14 Bless those who persecute you. Don’t curse them; pray that God will bless them. 15 Be happy with those who are happy, and weep with those who weep. 16 Live in harmony with each other. Don’t be too proud to enjoy the company of ordinary people. And don’t think you know it all!
17 Never pay back evil with more evil. Do things in such a way that everyone can see you are honorable. 18 Do all that you can to live in peace with everyone.
19 Dear friends, never take revenge. Leave that to the righteous anger of God. For the Scriptures say,
“I will take revenge;
I will pay them back,”[g]
says the Lord.
20 Instead,
“If your enemies are hungry, feed them.
If they are thirsty, give them something to drink.
In doing this, you will heap
burning coals of shame on their heads.”[h]
21 Don’t let evil conquer you, but conquer evil by doing good.
Lord,
I thank you for Jesus. The same power that conquer the grave lives in me. Your love that rescued the world lives in me. Lord I thank you once more for speaking to me, I rather be found right in your sight. I choose you Jesus. Lord you know of my struggles, so I lay down all my burdens at your feet. Just like the way you gave me a new heart, Lord I will wait for you to renew me with a new love for people. Lord, as according to your Word, you say don't let evil conquer you, but conquer evil by doing good and bless those who persecute me. Lord I listen and obey now, Satan you have no right to plant all these thoughts into my mind. * Haha! Bye bye! :P * I send you to the feet of Jesus, don't ever come back. And Lord, you say forgive so that I may be forgiven as well. Lord I forgive everyone right now and I ask for your mighty hand to bless your people! More blessings Lord, abundant multifold blessings. Bless and protect the leaders. Lord i ask for your hand of protection to be upon the sheep. Sway all the hearts back to you. Thank you Lord, I receive your forgiveness, and I will wait on you until you renew me with a newer and stronger love for people! End of the day Lord, I choose to stand on your Word. I love you Father, and I thank you for this mighty love, this is the same love which will release your power. So Lord, i ask for infinite blessings to bless your heart!
I cut off all ungodly soul ties and i ask for the blood of Christ to cover me and my household. In Jesus name I pray,
Amen.

You can tell yourself that you have already decided, that nothing now can stop you, but if that step backwards is so much safer than step forwards, what will hold you true to your path when the going gets tough? Sometimes, the right thing to do is to take that first irreversible step, the one after which you cannot go back. And now, for you, is one of those times.

You don't fully understand My love for you. It flows and pulsates; it hovers over you. It is deep and passionate. It is never-ending. I only want what's best for you - the VERY best!
When you are afraid of making a mistake, you aren't seeing Me clearly.
When you ask for forgiveness more than once (for the same thing), you are giving in to unbelief and fear. (You are completely forgiven the first time.)
Rest in My arms. Trust in my forgiveness and favor.
I know your heart - you want to please Me. Let Me take care of you; let Me guide you. I will help you find the right path.
You will hear My voice - I will increase you hearing. You will see My face - My face of love and compassion toward you.
Rest in My love. I will take care of EVERYTHING!

Lord, that i pray that unless You are with me, I cannot do this alone. Unless You guarantee and chop, i seriously think logically otherwise. But if You say yes, then i will do it, I will stake my life and all no matter what it takes. Amen.

Glory departs from the temple
Pray and ask God to reveal why the anointing level has fallen over the past month.
Seek the REAL heart of God and see why He cries
Don't see what you seem to see for it is only a shadow of a reality
Repent.
I am grieving.

Jesus said in Luke 14:33, “…anyone of you who does not give up everything he cannot be my disciple.”
This passage is unique to Luke, though verses 26-27 are like Matthew 10:37-38 and verses 34-35 are similar to Matthew 5:13 and Mark 9:49-50. It is extremely significant that this passage is addressed to large crowds. Jesus offered himself to all, but he also was honest from the very beginning of his preaching about what the journey would involve. What Jesus asks for is first place in one's heart. That is what successful discipleship requires.
So Jesus calls for a follower who will hate his mother and father, his wife and children, his brothers and sisters--yes, even his own life. The point of the list is that no other relationship is first for a disciple. "Hate" is used figuratively and suggests a priority of relationship. Jesus is first. To follow Jesus means to follow Jesus, not anyone or anything else. A disciple is a learner, and the primary teacher in life is Jesus. This total loyalty is crucial, given the rejection and persecution that lie ahead. If his followers care more about family than about Jesus, when families are divided under pressure of persecution, they will choose against Jesus. This is what lies behind Jesus' remarks. Discipleship is not possible if Jesus is not the teacher.
This is why bearing the cross and coming after Jesus is the issue of discipleship. Learning from Jesus means following him, experiencing the rejection he experienced and so bearing the cross he bore. We cannot "learn Jesus" without being prepared to walk this path. Discipleship is basically allegiance. To follow Jesus is to rely on him. Paul makes the same point in different imagery in Romans 6.

a season of loss and mourning
My spirit is grieved.
God doesn't give us insights for nothing. He doesn't tell us that we are sitting on a ticking time bomb for nothing. What have we done with our prophetic gifting? Have we really rise up to comfort and encourage those in trials? To offer forgiveness and mercy to those who have fallen? To press on and to believe and abide in the agape love?
When the crowd wanted to stone the sexually immoral woman, what did Jesus do? He offered to her mercy and forgiveness! This is the same God who died for us while we were still sinful and fallen.
Desire mercy, not sacrifice.
Forgiveness, not judgment.
quoting from: http://exodusmark.blogspot.com/2009/06/how-to-strengthen-yourself-in-god.html
"Heb 11:6 (NKJV)
But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him
We are only as strong as what we believe our God IS. If we believe He IS our healer, then we will experience more of His healing. If we believe He IS our provider, then we will enjoy more of His provision. What we believe God IS, becomes the “substance” God materializes in our lives. We must therefore build on the correct knowledge of who God is. And we must approach Him in faith. Lastly, the fear of the Lord will be the key to knowing God intimately … "
If we believe that God is judgmental and without leeway then He will manifest Himself in that manner.. but my thought provoking question is this a correct view of God?
A successful spiritual walk is a cooperation between God and man. God can show us dreams n visions. But it is up to man to decide his responses!
Luke 8:18
Therefore consider carefully HOW you listen. Whoever HAS will be GIVEN MORE; whoever does NOT have, even what he thinks he has will be TAKEN from him."

Supernatural God!
The Lord healed me supernaturally of my fever!
Next He blessed me with additional cash in my bank!
On a separate note, my spirit was grieved.... there are things coming... yet nothing is being done.

keys to the glory
http://www.thegloryzone.org/media/default.aspx
i recommend these few episodes
keys to the glory episode 46
future glory episode 41
expanded glory episode 40
tidbits: quantum physics of the glory episode 39
4 keys to e glory
1) praise n worship
2) holiness/consecration
3) fasting n prayer
4) sacrificial giving
praise n worship is more than just what we do at church
it is to start with praise until the spirit of worship comes. then u switch over to worship until glory comes.
when glory comes, that's the time to pray, that's when u stand in the glory n proclaim verses n promises into our lives.
and once we speak it is done because we are speaking in god's presence
n the secret to carry the presence of god/glory whenever u go is to continue to immerse in whatever praise/worship song the HS puts in your head for the rest of the day.
then words of knowledge will just flow, visions revealed, blueprints for the future will be made known to u
n the 2nd key... holiness/consecration got a few techniques
firstly once u have the glory resting on u right... whenever there is sin... repent immediately.... cuz u will know when the presence is removed.
don't waste time in guilt, otherwise glory comes n leaves, intimacy is the way to do it. Reason being, if u live in God's presence it's much harder to sin!
the other key is repentance and blood of Jesus
only legal way to god's presence is through blood of Jesus.
so if there is any sin that we cannot overcome on our own... we have to ask god to break the power of sin. the ball lies in the court of the believer, it's got to be a desire to pursue god and to live in that glory all the time.
so basically sat service signs, miracles, wonders is very good for ckrm... it's teaching us how to bring down the glory of god
but it is still up to each individual at the end of the day whether they want to carry the glory throughout the day
keep doing that everyday
pretty soon u'll start moving in the glory realm
prayer... sometimes don't need to be those super long half hour prayer
it can be as simple as speaking forth a particular verse.
there's no standard template on how prayer should be done... except through the leading of the HS n must be in god's will la
i recommend these few episodes
keys to the glory episode 46
future glory episode 41
expanded glory episode 40
tidbits: quantum physics of the glory episode 39
4 keys to e glory
1) praise n worship
2) holiness/consecration
3) fasting n prayer
4) sacrificial giving
praise n worship is more than just what we do at church
it is to start with praise until the spirit of worship comes. then u switch over to worship until glory comes.
when glory comes, that's the time to pray, that's when u stand in the glory n proclaim verses n promises into our lives.
and once we speak it is done because we are speaking in god's presence
n the secret to carry the presence of god/glory whenever u go is to continue to immerse in whatever praise/worship song the HS puts in your head for the rest of the day.
then words of knowledge will just flow, visions revealed, blueprints for the future will be made known to u

truth be told... it is warfare
It was only on the verge of a breakdown when my dear suddenly recalled something important,"My dear, your mum has been praying to that person, because I felt the repercussions."
Now that made a lot of sense because of all the hindrances at home and intense outbursts, was because for the past few days I prayed for the blood of Jesus to cover my entire house, floor, walls, ceiling... and they must be awfully pissed with me.
Further confirmation with the Lord revealed that the monk felt the repercussions of our prayers and he has been praying against us. When we went on to ask the Lord for the specific spirit to wage warfare against, a number was revealed to us instead, 3,000.

Failings of a daughter
I come from a dysfunctional family. Since young domestic violence was frequent. My dad was an aggressive man. My mum was a depressed and rejected woman. She falls into the desolate woman category in Captivating. Ever since I was a child, I learn that in order to survive at home, it was to retaliate first, to attack instead of to defend. Of course, it was all wrong, wasn't it? Love isn't suppose to be like that. Mothers would hug their children to bed... and fathers would piggyback their kids. But I was rejected. I was alone. I was afraid.
My dad is a traditional Chinese cultured man. He spoke few words, preferring to shoulder all the responsibility and burdens of the family onto himself. My mum never understood his intentions. Whenever things go wrong, she would start pushing the blame to my father... and the cycle went on...
Hence in my teenage years, I started to bottle everything up, choosing rather to swallow everything on my own than to even confide in my parents. Who would understand? If I told my mum, I would only earn her resentments. If I told my dad, I feared his temperamental outbursts which would only lead to more domestic violence.
I knew my mother never accepted me as what I am. No matter how hard I tried to get the grades in school, to try to do well, to even secretly work while studying. I never fit into her fixed criteria of a "good and obedient daughter." Reason being: I never finished JC, never went to NUS like my cousin who is doing a double degree, never went to NTU like my older cousin who majored in accounting. And gossip relatives only do more harm than good during family gatherings, which is another reason why I hate CNY and all its bitchy unneccessary comparisons. It's not that I don't want to finish JC, but what is the right price to pay? Is it right that I graduate with triple science, enter into some prestigious university and become like one of those local snobs who don't even know how tough life is? When my best friend sacrificed her education and dream just to see me through JC1. Is it fair that she failed? While I passed without making any effort? And because of me, I took her dream away... This is just one of the many things which I can never tell them why I chose to drop out at JC2, why I ignored everyone's comments that I was mad. Deep down inside, I was never meant to be some doctor or scientist, not because I can't make the cut.. but because my dream, my passion, my life... has always been in arts, in music. I can't live my life out in a lie. I'm sorry... I just can't do it. I have already ruined a person's future. Must I ruin more people's lives just to satisfy her hopes for me? *stops to wipe away the heartbreaking tears*
I'm not like my cousins who have no social life, who has never experienced hardships or setbacks, who has never shared the tears and sorrows of other people. They have sheltered lives. Good for them. I'm not jealous, because of what I have experienced, it made me a better person, it made me more aware of the sufferings of others... of the pain of the people around me. This is a price I gladly pay... because if i didn't go through all these, I wouldn't be at where I am today... with a calling, with a purpose to live for, to fight for.
How do I tell my mother or father why I stay up late? Just to pray, to worship God, to read the bible? Will she understand that I have people calling me up as late as 2am, 3am, crying on the other line, with their hearts breaking, their lives and future at stake? Will anyone want such a ministry when you need to be available for people almost 24 hours a day? Simply because you wouldn't know when would things crop up. I'm not a superwoman. I'm just a human, trying my very best to keep everything together for everyone.
When a relationship fails, it's always the fault of both parties. The differences in our mindsets just makes things worse. I'm not perfect, I do admit my failings as a daughter. I do apologise to my dad and mum for my transgressions. Just like how I pointed out to my mum whenever she resents my dad on why things never worked for the past 20 over years. I told her blankly in her face, a man needs a wife who is supportive of him, and not tearing him down. That's exactly why my dad didn't quit smoking. He smoked because he had no one else to turn to. He felt that no one understood the difficulties that he is facing, which is why he chose to swallow everything and keep quiet... only to release it through smoking? So is smoking the root cause? Hardly! It is the fact that communication has broken down that is the root cause of all these problems! Over the years, my dad turned from an aggressive man into a passive man, just letting my mum have her way all the time. Even my dad's pride has been broken to a point that he even admitted to both my mum and me about his failings.
God is the only anchor in my life. He is my biggest miracle. And even though I admit that I am doubtful of my circumstances now... but I know... ginosko... that I have a future in Jesus. Why should I even be bothered with earthly accomplishments when I have already set my eyes on the heavenly treasures? A true walk, will not only consist of the joy and victories, but more importantly of the testings, trials and sorrows, which is part of the character molding process. I want to let everyone know that I am only human, ain't perfect, sinful yet justified through His blood. Only at the end, God, You are the one left standing... to prove everyone else wrong.
PS. I sincerely offer my apologies to everyone who was at the water baptism today... I never expected things to turn out this way.

Parable of the Three Servants
14 “Again, the Kingdom of Heaven can be illustrated by the story of a man going on a long trip. He called together his servants and entrusted his money to them while he was gone. 15 He gave five bags of silverb]">[b] to one, two bags of silver to another, and one bag of silver to the last—dividing it in proportion to their abilities. He then left on his trip.16 “The servant who received the five bags of silver began to invest the money and earned five more. 17 The servant with two bags of silver also went to work and earned two more. 18 But the servant who received the one bag of silver dug a hole in the ground and hid the master’s money.
19 “After a long time their master returned from his trip and called them to give an account of how they had used his money. 20 The servant to whom he had entrusted the five bags of silver came forward with five more and said, ‘Master, you gave me five bags of silver to invest, and I have earned five more.’
21 “The master was full of praise. ‘Well done, my good and faithful servant. You have been faithful in handling this small amount, so now I will give you many more responsibilities. Let’s celebrate together!c]">[c]’
22 “The servant who had received the two bags of silver came forward and said, ‘Master, you gave me two bags of silver to invest, and I have earned two more.’
23 “The master said, ‘Well done, my good and faithful servant. You have been faithful in handling this small amount, so now I will give you many more responsibilities. Let’s celebrate together!’
24 “Then the servant with the one bag of silver came and said, ‘Master, I knew you were a harsh man, harvesting crops you didn’t plant and gathering crops you didn’t cultivate. 25 I was afraid I would lose your money, so I hid it in the earth. Look, here is your money back.’
26 “But the master replied, ‘You wicked and lazy servant! If you knew I harvested crops I didn’t plant and gathered crops I didn’t cultivate, 27 why didn’t you deposit my money in the bank? At least I could have gotten some interest on it.’
28 “Then he ordered, ‘Take the money from this servant, and give it to the one with the ten bags of silver. 29 To those who use well what they are given, even more will be given, and they will have an abundance. But from those who do nothing, even what little they have will be taken away. 30 Now throw this useless servant into outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.’
Revelation:
Talents = Faith represent the currency in heaven. It is the substance of things hoped for.
Notice that God didn't specify what should be done with it or how it should be done. The method is not important. It is up to us to determine how far our faith can stretch. If we pray for healing and we believe that it will only take part in stages.. then the same measure will be given to you... Reason being: God has no limits! But it is us humans who often set a limit!
The important part is He wants us to use this faith, invest it, GROW it! How it should be done is as according to His Will.. Salvation, deliverance, healing etc...
So if you desire to step into his glory zone.. where thousands will be touched and saved.... Instead of ministering on the level of gifts and anointing where one will feel drained out easily... Use your faith in prayer and ASK FOR IT!
"How many want to do God's will in the glory zone?
God can increase those realms in the glory, you can have a gift outside the glory. You can be backsliden and living in sin and still be operating in the prophetic, still know how to operate in some healing! Those mechanics in the new age group do it.
How many want to do in the glory? It's DIFFERENT!
In the gift you go onto the street, you even know how to do dream interpretation but it's in the flesh though. You guys you know the biblical way to do it, but still not doing it in the glory. Anything can be done outside the anointing or glory. You go onto the street give a prophetic word to someone that's straight on or heal him, they go,"Thank you"... but it doesn't impact them because the presence doesn't impact them because the presence of glory wasn't around it. It doesn't get into their soul, into their physical body or they get a word,"Ah that's cool. Thanks." They don't come to church.
But you walk in with the glory and you just, "Hey how ya doing?" and they start crying because of the presence of God. And if you do give a word of knowledge and they do get healed, not only do they get healed, there is a glory attached to it. And they say,"OMG I never felt so great in my life... What is this?!" It is not just the gift, but the glory came in. "I need more! I never felt so close to God! I need to have what you have!" It is not just the actual gift or the manifestations, but it's the glory. You need the gifts, but you've got to be in the glory realm for full impact! How many want to operate in the glory, not just in the gifts? Not just whip out a few miracles and be accurate in the word of knowledge... but in the presence?"

Hosting His Presence
Our greatest privilege in life is to learn to be a person that God will rest upon. He is in all of us by covenant, and will never leave. But He is not upon all of us. The challenge we face is to learning to be people who host the presence of the Lord as our greatest calling in life. While He is in me for my sake, He is upon me for yours. When the Lord rests upon a person, there is actually an atmospheric change that takes place wherever that person goes.
As our own faith increases—in conjunction with our realm of authority and responsibility—we are allowed to carry a greater weight of presence into an environment. The “reach” of His presence is transformational in nature, changing the climate that people live under. It is what happened on the day of Pentecost when the Spirit of God fell on 120 people. It completely changed the appetite of a city that only days earlier rose up to crucify Jesus. After the Spirit of God began to manifest and rest upon this group of 120, thousands spontaneously dropped all they were doing to come and gather around them at nine o’clock in the morning. When the prevailing atmosphere is the presence of God Himself, hunger is created in the hearts of people. It is normal to hunger for God.
As we become faithful to host the presence of the Lord, we find a tension between two realities—that He has been given to us without measure but that we set the limits of that measure. Though all of the measurements are set up on our end of the equation, we can experience the measure of presence we are willing to jealously guard. Whatever you will jealously guard, that is the measure you will have on a consistent basis. All measurements in the Kingdom exist for us to pursue increase. The whole Kingdom is based on this principle: the faithful use of what you have been given is what qualifies you for more.
This is the process we will experience in the coming days, for the glory of the Lord will cover the whole earth!!

How The Lord Led My Life Partner to Me
I would like to share with everyone a true love story. A story of friendship, of love, healing and lastly of salvation.
My name is Hui Lian. In my life, I struggled intensely with relationship issues. I’ve been through many heartbreaks and heart aches. But the Lord is so good, early in my walk with God, He brought a very special friend into my life. The first day when I met her in school, I knew that we would be friends till our lifetime is over. Her name is Adeline, and since the age of 15, she’s been praying for me to have a life partner. Over 10 years, she prayed for me faithfully, despite the fact that I had backslidden for 8 years.
It wasn’t until I was attending CKRM when during one the days when we were sharing and she suddenly brought up this subject of life partner to me again. It was really hard initially for me to raise this area up to God because both she and I were searching for healing for our broken hearts. So what started out as pouring out and confession onto the Lord of what I felt inside, at the same time, I could feel her pain and her despair. But Adeline persisted and she told me this to encourage me to pray, “He’s coming soon, don’t worry you’ll definitely get married before the age of 30.” So I asked her, “How soon?” She replied me, “Very soon.. within next 3 months.” At that time, I still haven’t met Ivan, I was a newbie at school.
Then slowly, the Lord began to work, firstly through Diana, when she passed me this book, Captivating by John & Staci Eldredge. I was blown away when the biblical principles started to take anchor into my heart. It was then during that period that I started praying and asking God to fill up my mouth with His words and desires for the right partner who He wants for me.
So, every night, I would come before God to pray this prayer,”
Dear Lord, I pray that You will send me the right person at the right time. Let this person be someone who loves You dearly and genuinely, whose heart will hunger, seek and thirst after You. I pray that he will be someone who will draw me even closer to You and likewise I would do the same for him. That we will both support and grow stronger in You so that both of us can fulfill Your purpose. Lord I pray and I ask for someone who flows in the same spirit as I do, for someone who is able to understand me and likewise me for him, and the best conversation that we’ll have is just to sit beside each other in silence. I pray that my other half will be a mighty warrior in You, someone who will desire to do your will, a God chaser. Lastly, God, I pray that when the right person is here at the right time, You will either kick me or slap me in my face cause You know how awfully dense I am. I thank You Lord, In Jesus name I pray, Amen.”
At that time, I started praying and asking God to open doors in my life so that I can reach out to more people. Out of the blue in March 2009, my classmate Celeste started to open up to me. It was through ministering to her that I got to know Ivan, Shu Yi, Malcom, Chang Feng, Pei Fen.
The very first time Ivan spoke to me, we talked about God. At that time when he talked to me, I kept praying in my heart and asking God what does He want to do with Ivan. And after Ivan told me what had happened in his life, I told him that he should not put to heart the words of man but to cling onto God.
The second time we spoke about God, I shared with Ivan my testimony and this time I took a step of courage by being more direct, I told him God wants him back.
After that, because the Lord gave me a dream regarding our classmate, I approached Ivan to ask him to help keep our classmate in prayer. It was when we pray for this classmate through msn then Ivan experienced deliverance for the first time in his life.
The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among Ivan. Ivan has seen his glory, the glory of the One and Only, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth.
The weirdest part is all of our classmates would notice that we were able to finish each other sentences, and say the same thing at the same time. So they kept pointing this out to both Ivan and I on many separate occasions. However I brushed it off because all the while, my only focus was to bring God’s presence to everyone around me, and it just happened such that Ivan was an open door.
It was during exam period during our study week when it just suddenly hit me that Ivan was being sent into my life by God. The funniest part is at the point of realization, it felt like I was being slapped on my face and God was like telling me this,” Haha! See I told you so… you should be careful of what you pray for!”
When Ivan finally confessed how he felt towards me I didn’t give him an answer immediately. The whole night I couldn’t sleep so instead I rang up Crystal to seek for advice then after that I kept praying about it. Finally the next day I decided before making a decision, I should lay out all the cards on the table so at least he knows what he is in for. Then we had a really long talk, and I told him that I really wanted to follow and chase after God, to live a life of surrender and to flow in God’s power. I wanted to know if he loves God as much as I do and whether he’s ready to commit as my stand is very clear, I will not compromise if he didn’t fit into the criteria of my prayers.
So I went to seek further confirmation from Celeste, Sister Janet and Crystal. And God gave us the green light. Through endless hours of prayers and confirmation, it was not an easy decision as we faced a lot of obstacles.
I really thank God for putting excellent mentors like Sister Janet into my life because of her advice to speak forth and proclaim scriptures into each other lives, we grew from praying over msn into praying nightly together, usually spending over an hour in prayer for close friends and for CKRM. Thank God for Brother Timothy who acted as a fatherly figure in Ivan’s life. Thank God for Crystal who never fails to point out all the potential pitfalls so that we know what problems could potentially arise and to cover those areas with lots of prayers.
And slowly the Lord began to reveal and confirm my prayers, through Sister Janet, when she told me that God is pleased with us, through Brother Timothy, when he prophesied that Ivan is another mighty warrior, (see God is so good, He answers my prayers in parts!), through Adeline who laughed at me and said,” See I told you so!”
The following week, Ivan received the vision of the 2 swords, one silver representing masculine, and one crystal representing feminine. When Brother Timothy told him what the 2 swords meant, there will be a time whereby the 2 swords will merge and become one sword. It served as a further confirmation of what I’ve been praying for because I have never spoken to Brother Timothy on this area of my life, for our spirit to unite as one and we will both serve the Lord together.
I really thank God for His faithfulness throughout all these years. And I really want to thank God for placing all these angels into my life to guide me and lead me closer to Him. It is indeed an unspeakable blessing to be set apart in holiness to worship the Lord! And I pray that this testimony will encourage singles and families not to give up but to endure and believe in love!
My name is Hui Lian. In my life, I struggled intensely with relationship issues. I’ve been through many heartbreaks and heart aches. But the Lord is so good, early in my walk with God, He brought a very special friend into my life. The first day when I met her in school, I knew that we would be friends till our lifetime is over. Her name is Adeline, and since the age of 15, she’s been praying for me to have a life partner. Over 10 years, she prayed for me faithfully, despite the fact that I had backslidden for 8 years.
It wasn’t until I was attending CKRM when during one the days when we were sharing and she suddenly brought up this subject of life partner to me again. It was really hard initially for me to raise this area up to God because both she and I were searching for healing for our broken hearts. So what started out as pouring out and confession onto the Lord of what I felt inside, at the same time, I could feel her pain and her despair. But Adeline persisted and she told me this to encourage me to pray, “He’s coming soon, don’t worry you’ll definitely get married before the age of 30.” So I asked her, “How soon?” She replied me, “Very soon.. within next 3 months.” At that time, I still haven’t met Ivan, I was a newbie at school.
Then slowly, the Lord began to work, firstly through Diana, when she passed me this book, Captivating by John & Staci Eldredge. I was blown away when the biblical principles started to take anchor into my heart. It was then during that period that I started praying and asking God to fill up my mouth with His words and desires for the right partner who He wants for me.
So, every night, I would come before God to pray this prayer,”
Dear Lord, I pray that You will send me the right person at the right time. Let this person be someone who loves You dearly and genuinely, whose heart will hunger, seek and thirst after You. I pray that he will be someone who will draw me even closer to You and likewise I would do the same for him. That we will both support and grow stronger in You so that both of us can fulfill Your purpose. Lord I pray and I ask for someone who flows in the same spirit as I do, for someone who is able to understand me and likewise me for him, and the best conversation that we’ll have is just to sit beside each other in silence. I pray that my other half will be a mighty warrior in You, someone who will desire to do your will, a God chaser. Lastly, God, I pray that when the right person is here at the right time, You will either kick me or slap me in my face cause You know how awfully dense I am. I thank You Lord, In Jesus name I pray, Amen.”

Lies of the enemy
My mother told me that the Goddess of Mercy once came to her and told her that we will have no house to live in...
My classmate once told me that a fortune teller told her that she will always be the 3rd party.
What a lie! And to think people listen to such nonsense and screw up their lives through such spirit of divination.
*Angry!*

Water Spirit @ River Valley Dream
In my dream I was sitting in an air con SBS double decker bus.?
I was sitting in the lower deck, nearer to the back portion, my back was facing the right window seats.
The bus was on the journey back to my home.?
So the bus stopped at the bus stop as usual at River Valley area.?
Then when the door opened, this invisible "thing" boarded the bus.
The bus driver looked?nonchalant?as though nothing had happened so I was sure the bus driver didn't see it... but it saw me and i saw it and it knew I was able to see it.
It was totally invisible, see-through.. but I know it was there...
The "thing" is the height n build of a small boy roughly 10-12 years old.
I called it "water spirit" because when it walked, it left nothing but wet footprints on the bus floor.
It took around 10 steps and finally it chose to sit down on my left.
I was thinking why of all the empty seats it choose to sit beside me?
Then it turned its faceless head towards me and roared at me.
At that split second, it was like this image flashed across my head, this image of an enlarged head with no eyes, no nose, no mouth except for razor sharp teeth with it's mouth stretching across its face.
When I woke up my whole body had goosebumps. It felt weird to me.
Then I asked the Lord for confirmation if this dream is from Him, then i proceed to seek the Lord if it is okay to do warfare.
So I went back to the point where it turned and roar at me and I roared back at it 3 times before going to sleep.
Therefore I would like to seek help from everyone to confirm if the dream is from the Lord and to check if there is any interpretation concerning this dream.... Thank you all.. sorry for any trouble caused.

Bei Ai De Nu Ren by Coco Li Wen
在镜子前面 我是个被爱的女人
他站在门外 这个周末我可以依赖在他的胸怀
在情人面前 我还是单身的女人
爱若缺了缘份
我想我只能用情至深但不能太认真
为什么被爱 有时却觉得悲哀
为什么我还是害怕一个人醒来
为什么相爱 日子却依然空白
为什么你 走不到我的未来
让爱固定下来 我不会永远青春可爱
我的美丽要你的温柔帮我保留下来
让爱固定下来 我和你 不要不要分开
我不要爱一再一再彩排
* 我不是每次失恋后都能从新再来 *

Demon named Deceive
Last night after waging warfare for a friend... I laid on my bed.
And it came... It crawled so swiftly and rested just beside me... staring at me... and I stared back.
Praise God for He sent Mama Faith to me as a wise counsel
and she guide me through the warfare...
Because i didn't know what it was... God revealed through Mama Faith that the demon is Deceive.
The funniest part was that after I roared, which I didn't tell her I roared, she commented that my roar was powerful and the enemy fled!
God is indeed marvelous!
Wow! God is so wonderful and good to us!
I was suddenly prompted to pray for my mum for team healing...
Before we started team healing... I asked Ivan to boomerang my mum.
Then he prophesy to her and told her that she needed healing for her small intestines and large intestines because she had problems passing motion due to the previous injections.
And my mum confirmed that whatever was being revealed to Ivan was indeed correct.
Praise God!
As we lacked one person to be Aaron/Hur, I asked God to send an angel to be the 3rd person.
As the power of God fell on me, I prayed for good digestive system for my mother, for all the microvilli in her intestines to function properly.
After the team healing session, my mum commented,"I saw bright lights~!"
Wow praise God!
I believe when one in my household is saved, all will be saved!
Salvation is coming to my household!!!!!!!!!

Chariots of Fire
This is the horse which Brother Tim will ride on every week...
It is a white mare/stallion and it is on FIRE!

My mum saw angels!
After praise n worship session at home, I suddenly turned towards Ivan and asked him,"Do you want to know how many angels there are in my home?"
Then I laid hands on him and I prayed for God to show him a vision of the number of angels there are in my house.
Ivan replied,"Wow! There's so many? 3 over here, one sitting on the upper deck, another 4 walking around the kitchen and dining area."
Then I asked my mum if she wanted to know how many angels we have at home, so both Ivan and I laid hands on my mother.
"I saw 6 to 7 bright orbs," my mother exclaimed.
Then I laid hands on him and I prayed for God to show him a vision of the number of angels there are in my house.
Ivan replied,"Wow! There's so many? 3 over here, one sitting on the upper deck, another 4 walking around the kitchen and dining area."
Then I asked my mum if she wanted to know how many angels we have at home, so both Ivan and I laid hands on my mother.
"I saw 6 to 7 bright orbs," my mother exclaimed.
How the Lord blessed us for our exams
This is a testimony of how God actually helped 3 of us through our circumstances in school. Basically it was through Celeste (not CKRM Celeste) that I got to know Ivan and Shu Yi.
Shu Yi is a foreign student so her command of her English language isn’t good. Therefore she struggled with Law of Investment and Financial Markets and on top of that, due to the blood clot in her head, she often faint in school and suffer badly from anxiety attacks.
The time when I met Ivan, it was after the mid term tests. And I knew that time that Ivan had barely recovered from over-exhaustion. So it affected his grades, because he was hospitalized and he was not able to attend lessons, he didn’t make the cut for the Business Statistics mid term paper.
So during the 2 weeks of study break, Shu Yi, Ivan and I decided to study together to help each other out. But as the days draw nearer to the examinations, Shu Yi started experiencing extremely bad panic attacks as she couldn’t handle the examination stress so in turn she started to put pressure on Ivan for Law paper.
Well knowing that Ivan has not finished his revision for Statistics. I told him to concentrate on Stats first before helping Shu Yi because I know he has a soft heart. So we spent 3 days to finish the entire syllabus of Statistics, something which cannot be done based on human effort. God was so good to us, He provided Ivan the clarity of mind and the absorption power to tide him through.
And after our Statistics paper, we were left 2 days for Law paper. It is amazing that Shu Yi was able to finish the entire Law syllabus because she kept fainting and having anxiety attacks which were pretty bad to the point that she was rejecting whatever we were teaching her because she was so fearful of failing. But God is always faithful and good, as we sat at MacDonalds to study, both Ivan and I laid hands to pray on Shu Yi and she could feel the difference as she felt slightly better.
Then on the last day just before Law paper, because Shu Yi kept fainting and we had 7 more chapters to cover, as a method of last resort, I kept using the spear to empower both Ivan and Shu Yi because I knew Ivan was getting tired and frustrated that Shu Yi kept rejecting whatever we tried to teach her.
But the Lord was really good, I didn’t know why but I felt prompted to give the both of them a copy of my mid term Law project, so I photocopied my Law project for both Ivan and Shu Yi. Then for the main paper, it came out as a question on its own so we secured 20 marks.
The night before our exam results are out. Ivan had a dream and the Lord showed him his grades, so he knew he would score 3 distinctions and a pass. I’m really grateful and thankful to God that both Shu Yi and Ivan passed their weakest subjects. It is really through His strength that all of us are able to make it through for our exams. And lastly, I want to thank God because He gave me fantastic results, 2 distinctions and 2 high distinctions. Praise the Lord!!!!

Who is a Highly Sensitive Person?
A highly sensitive person can be described as someone that is overwhelmed by the senses. Having a nervous system that absorbs and processes ten times more information than the average person's leaves an HSP exhausted after a "normal" day of activity. Not only are they overwhelmed by their physical senses such as sight, sound, touch, taste and smell, but can be exhausted by their emotions as well. They tend to absorb the feelings and energies of others, which can be taxing on the mind.
It has been estimated that 15-20% of the population or 50 million people are highly sensitive. Among this population, there is a scale of sensitivity levels since some people are slightly sensitive while others are extremely sensitive.
Unfortunately in our society (specifically the U.S.), outgoing, bold, extraverted personalities are rewarded while sensitive personalities are treated as a flaw that can be overcome. Highly sensitive people have been around forever, but they have been mislabeled as shy, timid, inhibited, or introverted. Although some highly sensitive people do have some of these traits, not all of them do. In fact many highly sensitive people are extraverted (30%) and outgoing. An HSP may be seen as shy or inhibited, when they are actually just taking time to absorb their surroundings and consider all of the possibilities in a situation. Once they have processed this information thoroughly, they are quite comfortable responding with confidence and precise actions and words. Another explanation is that they just might be trying to avoid the stress of over arousal in a particular situation.
Your friends and family who love you have probably always told you to "not be so sensitive," as if sensitivity were a flaw. Well, sensitivity is not a flaw. Highly sensitive people tend to be extraordinarily creative and productive workers. In relationships, they are usually attentive and thoughtful partners with acute listening skills and compassionate hearts. Most are also intellectually gifted individuals. According to Dr. Elaine N. Aron, pioneer in the sensitive personality type, “HSPs could contribute much more to society if they received the right kind of attention.”
