haha haven been going out to play alot, stayed home cause its raining raining. raining is bad for health :(. when ppl go jogging they will slip n fall :(:(:( causes my clothes to be wet :(:(:( causes flood :(:(:( causes my slippers to be wet :(:( hehe

wisdom wisdom what is wisdom?
I think now i need wisdom to be good in everything. wisdom = ability to apply knowledge or experience or understanding or common sense and insight.
Found this statement very true. Fear of the Lord is the beggining to wisdom. Sometimes its not wise to put everything u feel on the blog. A blog is to let others see not private if it is private why let people know u got a blog. Even its a private blog will you put all your hatred u have on somebody, all your anger and vulgar blah blah...?
take a look back on past post, you have a 'pleasant' life story huh
Proverbs 2:
6 For the LORD gives wisdom, and from his mouth come knowledge and understanding. wisdom knowledge and understanding come hand in hand. putting knowledge into practice. i think that is very important to grow as a Christian, i really hope people around will start to be mature and think wise.

some simple understanding: When a person refuse to listen to advices and saying he/she wants to leave church(even though got do quiet time) then, probably the person lacks attention,the affirmation and appreciation from people.
This guy need someone to complaint to, maybe he or she had some problems and no one knew that. this person or guy might be in 'emo state'. Pray God speak to the person directly<
<>
he is a shield to those whose walk is blameless,
it is our character that is most important. Your action shows your character. being blameless,hm... ask God to judge you, know the truth.

Wisdom in character will save you! correct judgment will protect you! Wise choices will watch over you.

baaaccckk to post my quiet time~`.'~ didnt post don't mean that i dun do my qt lol...
have been reading psalm for a period.

God have been speaking and giving the evidence of what my church is teaching now. example for this: Pslam 142:2- I pour out my complaint before him;
before him I tell my trouble.
cool huh. Thank you God for boosting my knowledge of the word so when i teach others to complaint to God first before other people, i will use this verse. cool God.
verse 7- Set free of bondage, stronghold, mindset, unbelief or things like that. Human will know its wrong because we have conscience and God do speak to us. God do speak to me at least.

Psalm 143
trying to understand what david is feeling, his enemies chase him down. In his distress he praised God and know that God will come to his relief. David remembered what God had done. Thinking back boost his faith. For me i have alot life experience that i went through with God if i were to share to others i don't know where to start. Mission trip is the prominent one. If you were to think of backsliding, think to yourself, did you really try God out? or did you wan God to try you? Having no memories between you and God? maybe because you dun even have a relationship with God from the start.

i remembered the times when i first came to know God. I accepted Christ because i thought "if there is really heaven and hell, then let me go heaven".
Thats the reason i accepted Christ. i dunno why but i got convicted to follow Christ. My mum got angry cus i go church(thats abt 2weeks after i accepted christ), from then on i got serious parent objection. Doing quiet time is a big problem, i tried reading the bible openly but i got scolded and i would hide myself and read the bible. In that time, i would find ways to read the bible, i will wake up during midnight and have my devotion to God. When others are watching tv, i will go to my room. That was my first love and i never knew wad first love was. Even when God is speaking to me, i don't know that it is God prompting me because i had fear in me and alot of doubts. During this time i depended alot on God. Life is a torment with all these problems but i didnt dare to tell others because i have this mind set of "not giving others problems" and "serve others,help their problem". Emotions cannot be controlled, i feel the way any one will feel BUT i didnt think in the way i feel. Thats the time i grow alot alot. before i know it, i got 3 disciples and very soon after i became a core leader. With that much fear in me and such a responsibility, God led me out.

kinda think of my life, it is meaningful and wow. I think in the past i have the mindset of "being a leader should know everything" so i got abit of fear BUT it led me to be curious and started researching on things i want to know and i would ask God for help. So now i could understand how people feel because i gone through it, yeep i felt the way members would feel but something different is the thinking and the reaction.
These are abit of stories with God that will constantly remind me how great God is.

Reminiscing.(:)

read psalm 135 made me realise of praising God. the initial stage where we start to praise God with all we got. Your name, O LORD, endures forever,Your fame, O LORD, throughout all generations.
& pslam 136 all about God's mercy, imagine what the author had gone through that made him to write about God's mercy

mercy have 2 about the similar meaning which i found its good: 1) the discretionary power of a judge to pardon someone or to mitigate punishment
2)Something for which to be thankful; a blessing.
In Psalm 136 probably its the 2nd meaning of mercy. He was thanking God for the Earth he is living in, the grace he had.Thanking God for the hello kitty and computer(jus kidding).

Mercy translate to spanish is "compasiĆ³n" sounds like compassion huh? it is. :)
Mercy is not just the chocolate or being lenient of the punishment, it shows the character and the heart. Bcus God is merciful i think i shld be, hm.. let God give me test. Wad can endure forever except for God and true disciples that follow him?

Psalm 137:9 Happy is the one who takes your babies and smashes them against the rocks!
Take a look what this person is going through, God did not tell him to smash his baby on the rock but he is being genuine with his feeling to God. The person was in such sorrow over his home that he said this. God wouldnt tell some1 to do this~ Jesus said "if anyone causes the little ones to stumble and fall, its better for you to tie a rock around your neck and throw yourself to the sea".

holidays are here what am i gonna do? hm...self reflecting =D
ok only linked zealot 3 ppl, others slowly ba.

just swam past the channel 5 show life story, didnt watch much. wo indeed the most wanted man in Sg became a pastor. WOW could imagine if any one were to tell him some negative comments abt themselve, what will the pastor say?
hm...dreams? some dreams only meant to be dream. reach to a stage of maturity where God is all even of giving up 'dreams' that i would call. Dreams like being a star(woo~~), singer or wad ar. lol i would think of being a singer all these too ^^. Its cool to write own songs huh.
Sometime i get proud over myself being able to sing well. Well only in praising and worshiping God. ^^

Long before time, someone asked me that being a Christian issit giving up your dreams? I felt like saying "yes"(at that time i not so spiritually mature) that time but the person is not at that stage yet lah so i said "no". the truth is being a disciple is.

Heard of this?-->> "Being saved cost us nothing, being a disciple cost us everything"

Pondered over a question "will God call us to be a road sweeper?"
there is no answer to it because the question is wrong =D
it should be "What is God's calling?" den there is an answer.

hehe anyone who read this post, God bless you. Go find out your calling.


Long time ago, brother slyvester(now in service one) gave up a chance to go taiwan for some stardom but he gave up because it will take away his chance to get closer to God abit. wow i still remember even though its like more than a year ago.
Hm..if i were a singer then i have influence over people then people will know the God that i have. wooo
mission trip weeeeeee

today's qt turned back to read at psalm

psalm 128:1 Blessed are all who fear the LORD,
who walk in his ways.

Fear must always be reminded constantly, no such thing that worship God now and later start to hate other people. Would God hate you? Always listen to people's advices because in this way you are obeying God's word and walk in His way. If there were arguments of whether to obey, that means you dun really know who is God huh. Im sure to tell whatever advice i give others its biblical, i will find the verse.

For example advising others to sleep early: Psalm 127:
2 It is vain for you to rise up early, To sit up late, To eat the bread of sorrows; For so He gives His beloved sleep.

ytd qt taught of reaping in tears but sow with joy.today:psalm 128:
2 When you eat the labor of your hands,You shall be happy, and it shall be well with you.

seek God and ask for blessing :D
mission trip is near, let me be able to gogogo.

Saturday, August 18, 2007

didnt post ytd qt. but shall post today's.

Zephaniah means the Lord is my secret. hey make sense huh? The Lord is the one behind helping me but i shall not keep it as a secret.

Zapheniah 3
2 She obeys no one,
she accepts no correction.
She does not trust in the LORD,
she does not draw near to her God.
Sounds like somebody? Review over own life and be humble. Don't think about others life on what wrong the person had done, what can you do? blame the person and have hatred? Blaming others is a selfish act. Think abt own life, be guilty over what you done. Weep over the sin.

The punishment on Jerusalem. God judge according to the character people are in them. But there is surely deliverance after the punishment. There will be singing and dancing rejoicing i the salvation.

read Habakkuk 3

Revive Your works oh Lord. Use me us as instrument of righteousness, let the golden age come, You are the only God that can fill my heart. I need more of God. When im alone let me seek you all the more, make me a true Man following Your heart. I do homework, projects and works. But these are never closer to me than You. I seek You more. I crave for your presence wherever i go, i sing your praise .

God measure th Earth, measure my heart. Do i have space left? i can't act like a worldly leader where i expect my members but quiet time is for ME not for others. Is there any vacuum that is left for other things other than God? if there is, God fill the vacuum and only God can.
Get a smile on Your face.

:
13 You came out to deliver your people,
to save your anointed one.
You crushed the leader of the land of wickedness,
you stripped him from head to foot.

Though people are against me. The hope in men fails.
Though emotions are out of control and my work are not satisfied.
Emptiness rob me my motivation or fear causing distraction.
Even of disappointment that brings guilt lingers,
yet i will rejoice in the Lord, my Salvation, my all and All i have.

Im left home alone, a strong urge to worship God in my closet. Reaching a place no one had been. Having a strong and close relationship that nothing so great will stop the Love between me and God.
Im not stagnant, i am still growing. im contented but not satisfied. I want more.

Great effective quiet time. Hope everytime im alone at home i can do this.

To any member who were to see this.
Watch your discipler as they do. Help your discipler as they do. Your discipler help you when you do. Your discipler watch you as you do.
-> As you observe your leader and knowing their purpose, you will grow fast.

Wednesday, August 15, 2007

haha didnt post the last few quiet time.
argh .
alrite seeking God in the morning of the exam day. woo, come on God gonna bless me. Matthew 6:33 seek first his kingdom and his righteousness and all of these shall be added on you.
Memorise this verse man!

Habakkuk 2
this a book i rarely hear about~ more on prophecies.
:3 -For the revelation awaits an appointed time;
it speaks of the end
and will not prove false.
Though it linger, wait for it;
it will certainly come and will not delay.
always praying God reveal something to me sometimes He does but when i dun get it , i panick. So wait for His appointed time.

:5 Because he enlarges his desire as hell,
And he is like death, and cannot be satisfied
-> found myself playing abit much games, it spoke to me that this desire for worldly stuff will cause me death. Fear of the Lord came upon me. The desire will grow stronger and stronger.

here also teaches us not to owe people debts
:
7 Suddenly, your debtors will take action.
They will turn on you and take all you have,
while you stand trembling and helpless.

Don't take what is not yours, don't build on the foundation that God has not laid. Taking revenge is taking what is not yours! its God's job, if you do, other people will have revenge on you and the wicked cycle continues, if you are the one whoo started it, you bring shame! to people around you, to yourself and God. Taking revenge shows your ignorant and foolishness. Why don't just give in to people? We are child of God, we are secured in God's indentity, theres no need other poeple to confirm that we are one! What sorrow awaits.

Being prideful is the last thing a leader would want to have. A good leader is a good servant like Jesus.
What sorrow awaits you who put your hope in men! oi put your hope in God lah. surely dun need to remind again.

read James 2
God forbids favoritism in us! wow this is what i wanted to say so much to everyone(in a cellgroup), don't show attention to people who looks good or the popular guys or girls. For me, i would always talk to people who are alone. When people have their own fun in their zones, i want to serve ,at least as a cellgroup leader. There is times the people don't want my attention, the people who are alone wants the popular people's attention.

verse 12Speak and act as those who are going to be judged by the law that gives freedom.
yep i love God's commandment. its good, it guides my path, IT GIVES FREEDOM(FROM SIN,GUILT,MESS UPS,BROKEN RELATIONSHIP AND EVERYTHING). every problem in life is anticipated in the Bible. and i mean EVERY problem.

WOW POWERFUL VERSE HERE>>
But someone will say, "You have faith; I have deeds."Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by what I do.

if i were to say that i have faith God change a person's heart, i must do it with that faith. Don't underestimate God's child. You will never walk alone.

Chasing after Your heart.

See things from the helicopter view of God

how can you say your relationship with God is good when your action contradict?
You pray for good results, your pray for your own family problems to be solved but on the outside you complain and blame others that cause you to sin. Its always you, remember. the choice to conflict with others is your choice! its always you making the choice. In exam period whether you stay strong its your choice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I don't believe if you really did pray and God did not show you what you shld do-THATS IMPOSSIBLE! I HAVE FAITH IN GOD MORE THAN IN MEN. Its impossible for you to go to God and pray for others when you yourself is unwilling to forgive others. Is your prayer gonna be answered? Are your righteous?
A BROKEN RELATIONSHIP WITH OTHERS IS A BROKEN RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD. be humble and say you did wrong, hey its not about you anymore. Rejecting any chance to hear God's word is directly rejecting God cus in John 1:1 in the beginning there was the Word, the Word was with God and the Word is God! when CHRISTIANS say "dun always use bible verse" i get very very angry,respect God lah, do u take God's word as a burden!?@ what crap?? obviously you had not been doing effective quiet time. quiet time is a time for rest. Tired? all the more you nid to seek the divine rest.
No wonder you don't seek God, no wonder God don't speak to you. no wonder you r still the same. Galatians 2:
20I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.
I pray God give me wisdom and humble myself as a follower not a leader to help other ppl, anw i only got a few tens of years to live, jus go tru it den i will be in heaven. Thanks ar for all the trouble because it will produce faith and perserverance. Im growing ^^
James 1:
12Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him.
James 1:19-20
Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, for man's anger does not bring about the righteous life that God desires.

psalm 119:105: your word is a light unto my path.
Has been reading psalm 119. I really want yearn for God's word to be in my life as a lifestyle. in this chapter, it talks about how i love God's commandment:
The law from your mouth is more precious to me

than thousands of pieces of silver and gold.
I confirmed that i will follow God and will not miss out any chance to hear His word, through people, circumstance, Bible, through the church through Holy spirit or anything!
Yeah still rmb i told God that i will never give up no matter what.
Psalm 119:
112 My heart is set on keeping your decrees
to the very end.it speaks all.
Psalm 119:120 My flesh trembles in fear of you;

I stand in awe of your laws.
Psalm119:
124 Deal with your servant according to your love
and teach me your decrees.
Psalm 119:
128 and because I consider all your precepts right,
I hate every wrong path.
Psalm 119:
133 Direct my footsteps according to your word;
let no sin rule over me.
these are my prayers to you God.

well was thinking shld we always go back to the basics and teach again?
Teach about praise and worship; its between me and God. DON'T care about what people think. Are you trying to set a image to let people see? think that your cool if u dun dance before God?? WRONG WRONG WRONG. WRONG x1000. I think the opposite. think about what God will think of you. Nid to teach abt having faith again? Not let situation affect me?
Hebrews 6:1So let us stop going over the basic teachings about Christ again and again. Let us go on instead and become mature in our understanding. Surely we don’t need to start again with the fundamental importance of repenting from evil deeds and placing our faith in God.
Find rest in God.
Hebrews 6:19
This hope is a strong and trustworthy anchor for our souls. It leads us through the curtain into God’s inner sanctuary. Wad is this hope? Dun say "when theres a will, theres a way"
When there is God, there is way, because Jesus is the way Himself! The way to everything. Hold on to the promises God promised.

Hebrews11:1-2
Faith is the confidence that what we hope for will actually happen; it gives us assurance about things we cannot see. Through their faith, the people in days of old earned a good reputation.
