I Wish~

Many of us would find it incredibly convenient to have a magic genie, granting us 3 wishes. Then we could have had it all..... rolling in the deep...... But seriously. Imagine what you could do with 3 wishes...

Those who are business-minded will wish for even more wishes, though I'm quite sure genies are not that simple-minded, they will sure attach some conditionalities to the 3 wishes in the first place. Those who are selfless will wish for world peace. Those who are poor will wish for more money. Those lonely, companion. Those homeless, family.

Wouldn't a genie make everything better? But we all know that genies don't exist. However, we do know that God exists!!! And isn't that better news?

Genies only give us 3 wishes. God gives us unlimited opportunities to pray. Genies will grant whatever we wish. God grants us whatever is best for us. Genies are just fictional magical beings. God is omniscient, omnipotent, omnipresent. Need I say more?

James 5:16 states that "The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and wonderful results." 1 John 5:14 - "We can be confident that He will listen to us whenever we ask Him for anything that is in line with His will."

So next time you mention "I wish.....", change it to "I pray...." instead. Trust me, it works so much better, when you place and commit everything to God's hands.

Finding Your Way (Part 2) – Perseverance with a Capital P

Experiencing power in prayer often has to do with perseverance. God’s answers do not always come quickly. Scripture commands us to continue praying until the situation is resolved: “Rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation, continuation in steadfastly in prayer” (Romans 12:12)

The challenge to continue in prayer is a most difficult undertaking for some believers. But those who take up the gauntlet and continue to pray always receive an answer. Persevering faith enables us to continue in prayer. If we believe God and His Word, we never give up praying. However, if we harbour unbelief in our heart, we will easily give up when there appears to be silence from heaven.

Have you ever felt you had a problem or trial that was impossible to correct? God takes the impossible situations in our lives and by His power makes them right. Perhaps you have a besetting sin that you feel helpless to conquer. God’s power smashes habitual sins into pieces. Maybe you hare in the midst of a dire situation that you feel is unbearable. God turns disaster into wonderful blessings and mighty testimonies. Perhaps a loved one for whom you have been praying for many years still has not come to the Lord. The is nothing God cannot do. His power is not something that He holds back from us; instead, we need to access it. Tap into it. Keep on praying. God’s timing is perfect. He will answer.

Finding Your Way (Part I) by Eugene Goh

June 4, 2011genegohLeave a commentGo to comments

I’m reading this book on  ”Finding Your Way” by Gary Laferla and in a particular chapter, he wrote on this area, that required me to read twice before deciding to post this up. Thing is, it struck me the first time, but I didn’t have time to blog, so here I am, sharing this with all of you. Here goes:

John 15:7 “But if you stay joined to Me and My Words remain in you, you may ask any request you like, and it will be granted!”

You may have noted that there is a condition to unlocking the power of prayer. Jesus said, “If you stay joined to me…” The word JOINED is also rendered “abide” and means to stay in a certain relationship. The condition to receiving answers to prayer is to be joined to Jesus in a close relationship. Jesus went on with the condition saying, “… and [if] My Word remain in you…” God’s Word is vital to you prayer life and influences your daily life. Jesus taught Hid disciples these two conditions for receiving answered prayers: Stay close to Me and let My Word be the central focus of your life. He ask us as well to meet these two conditions for answered prayer. If they are met, our prayers will be in accordance with Hid purposes and we will receive what we have asked for, according to His will.

Jesus said, “Until now you have asked nothing in My Name. Ask, and you will receive, that your joy may be full.” (John 16:24). Asking in Jesus’ name means to ask in accordance with His nature, purpose, and divine will.

When we go to God in prayer and ask for something in Christ’s name, we are saying, “Will you attach Your Name to my desire?” Whether the desire is a new purchase, business venture, relationship, or idea, God will answer – according to His will. 

You and I need to understand that not everything we desire is within God’s will for our lives. God will grant only those request that are in keeping with His divine will. We often think that we know what’s best for our lives, but it is the Lord who knows what will bring us true joy and fulfillment. When we walk through this world abiding by God’s will, we experience abundant life.

Revolution: Testimony from Sam Y Lo! Part 3!

As part of the Recess Revo movement, our very own Sam Y Lo gave another, another testimony! Here here here, check it out!

Hey people! :)

Today was the official teachers' day celebration because the exams were over and after praying last week, we felt God pushing us to do something for the celebration!
So God planted in the ideas and we decided to print out bookmarks and order some cupcakes(which eventually turned out as Muffins HAHA) and distribute them to ALL our teachers!
And trully, God has been with us the whole time! :)

Me and Josh at first had some difficulty gathering people to help out but, man, God works in wonder-est of ways!
Throughout the week, we just managed to share what God had put in our hearts with some friends and WOW the volunteers just flooded in!
From a mere number of 5 or 6, on the Thursday when we were cutting the printed bookmarks and tying the ribbons we had 13 people in total helping out! And 3 of them were NOT CHRISTIANS! Seeds were sown as they understood and wanted to be a part of what we were doing! We had a good time preparing and we cut out and made ready all 130 bookmarks in less than two hours! All glory to God! The design of the bookmark is posted with this story, and on the behind we wrote a note : 'From the CF of SMI with <3, God Bless! :) ' Believe it spoke volumes!

Credits to Josh who ran around town the night before searching for places to print the bookmarks but found non because everything was SO Expensive. By faith he went home with the glossy paper he bought and printer it with his printer! It came out AWESOME! Praise the Lord! He even went to make sure the cupcakes were halal in mind of #someoftheteachersthatwouldmindifitsnothalal ! HAHA.

So we gathered at around 7 for our usual morning prayer and 12 people turned up to help distribute the stuffs to the teachers! We prayed and then briefed everyone and made sure that everyone put on a bright smile! :)) We divided into 6 different pairs, and got our instructions where to give out and the other details. After another round of briefing, we went on to pray with each of our partners to grant us boldness and words of encouragement for our teachers.

After prayer, we waited in the hall til the time when they would open the assembly to people who wanted to give gifts to their teachers.
To our surprise, only the Prefectorial Board was the only people giving out Gifts to teachers!
We move out and our gifts really plastered smiles on the teachers faces! It was scary at first for most of us, but after their response we grew more confident and the words to encourage each teacher just flowed! After distributing during assembly, me and Josh went to scout the school for the remaining teachers who might have purposely want
to skip the 'boring' teacher's day celebration.
Sure enough we found some teachers in the staffroom working!

So we went up to each of them giving them a bookmark and a muffin each and we came to this particular teacher who was watching us when we offered to clean the whole lowerform6 block with some other guys and girls during the first week of orientation.
And we just extended warm smiles and wished her Happy Teacher's Day! And before she even looked at what we were giving, she said, thanks, You guys are from the Christian Fellowship right? And we were stunned for the moment because she was from the Majority race and that our CF was pretty much a lil unknown! We said yes and she smile back and said Thank You. We were like WOW! We were glad that Jesus is getting recognition!

The both of us went on to the office, and since we had so much more muffins, we decided to bless the office staffs and the security guards! Their faces lit up when we offered the Muffins to them and they were even more happy when we told them it was Cheese Muffins! Haha.

We gathered together again, all pumped up and glad that what we had set out to do had been accomplish! At the end we prayed and Gave thanks to the Lord for without Him we couldn't have got everything done!

Most of the teachers were surprised and at the same time happy that we took the step to do something for them. My class teacher were all thanks when she stepped in after recess and we got comments from teachers like, 'why don't the other societies and bodies do stuffs like this? Thanks You guys' and 'Where did you get these muffins? Its super nice!'

We thank God for He is GOOD!

At the end of the day, All glory and praise to Our God who is Love! :)
