Wei Hao's sermon

Today its our first youth cell where we combine with the guys' teens.. Our focus for today's youth cell is about setting ground rules as we want the youth to know the importance of cell and to not treat cell like a market place....IS also to check their attitude towards God. I asked one of the guys to share about the importance of cell. His name is Wei Hao...i am so proud of him. He put in a lot of effort in his preperation. I believe God is proud of him too. At such a young age, he understand the importance of cell and came up with 3 point short sermon of the importance of cell. It really spoke to me and i hope it will speak to u too....
Wei Hao's sermon
Three truths of cell group that I hold on dearly to / Why is cell important to me ?

Each of us is running our own race; we all have the same end point but we each have a different path. We can¡¯t run this race alone, we run as a cell. Philippians 3:14 (I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.) Why do we need the cell to run the race? The cell gives us 3 As.

1st A
Anointing ¨C Matthew 18:20 (For where two or three come together in my name, there am I with them) God¡¯s presence will be among us.

2nd A
Assurance ¨C Hebrews 10:24-25 (And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds. Let us not give up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but let us encourage one another¡ªand all the more as you see the Day approaching.) Receive assurance because cell group was birthed from the bible.

3rd A
Accountability ¨C Hebrews 13:17 (Obey your leaders and submit to their authority. They keep watch over you as men who must give an account. Obey them so that their work will be a joy, not a burden, for that would be of no advantage to you.) God placed leaders amongst us to guide us and be our pillars of strength when we are weak.

Keep checking the condition of our heart. What is our purpose in attending cell group? - Always come with an open heart and open mind ready to receive and ready to give. We gather to know God and make God known.

I believe if you commit yourselves to being faithful to cell group, God will bless you mightily. The very fact that you¡¯re here delights God. We¡¯re all rough pieces of diamonds. Through the cell, God will shave off uneven pieces of the diamond, until we become beautiful, shiny diamonds in Him.


I can forsee him as a pastor.....

third entry

I have always felt that because of the technologies that are advancing; the ecconomy's downturn.
People's pace is increasingly going up; walking tremendously quick.
But tts all a matter of time.

In Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
1 There's a time for Everything, and a season for every activity under heaven:

2 a time to be born and a time to die
a time to plant and a time to uproot

3 a time to kill and a time to heal
a time to tear down and a time build,

4 a time to weep and a time to laugh
a time to mourn and a time to dance

5 a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain,

6 a time to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,

7 a time to tear and a time to mend
a time to be silent and a time to speak

8 a time to love and a time to hate
a time for war and a time for peace.

It all seem to make sense ya? Just wish that people will slow down their steps.
Afterall, what you see are created by Him. Take a lil time to enjoy what He has made for you to enjoy.
Never rushed into things. (:

My Family MyHope

So i've been praying about this for a long time, some of you already know that God has been telling me to do this for awhile..

I cooked dinner for them, but my dad act went to work, and only came back at 9 plus. Told him i've something to show them, but he seemed skeptical and like wanted to eat and bathe first. Then while i was talking to Mel on the phone and she was praying for me, my sis walked out. She said i didn't tell her that she had to be there, and she was meeting somebody. I don't know why, but i felt terribly disappointed. Started to tear, i just felt like my plans were ruined. After that i went to my room and started praying, and worshipping God. Found back my peace in Him, knew in my heart that He was in control. Truly, everytime we do something for God's Kingdom, there will be spiritual warfare, and we must be prepared for it, and fight on. The devil will try all means to make us give up. We must not let him win.

So my parents watched the Kelvin Soh video, i think my mom enjoyed it, but my dad was a bit uncomfortable. He's actually quite against Christianity one, cos of idol worshipping. So i kept praying against spirits of idols and pride, and anything that may stop him from being touched by Him...

After the video i shared my testimony, then reviewed the 100k blessings that they chose that last time, to affirm them that God has indeed answered every prayer. After that, i knelt down and apologized to them for all i've done tt's hurt them all these years, and for not being filial in the past. Following which, i attempted to wash their feet..My dad was super shocked, he jumped and refused to let me wash his feet at first...kept asking me to get up. But i insisted so eventually just dip a bit haha.

At the end of everything, i gave them Chinese Bibles. =) My mom is open, but i think she's not totally committed yet, mostly cos of my dad...i think he still doesnt know that she received Christ. But will be continuing to pray for them. I believe a seed is sown in my dad's heart too, against all odds.

Continue to pray hard for your families that are unsaved. It is the Lord's promise that if one in the family is saved, all will be saved. He will definitely keep His promise, if we are faithful in obeying all that He asks us to do. =)

prayer for ps khong

Dear family.. below is an email from pastor Debra.. we are assigned to pray for him on friday, 2nd Jan 12 noon-730 pm. it's a 7.5 hours slot.. yup.. we will discuss and assign the slots.. let's be in our post and position to pray..

mel

Hi Gals,

Churchwide just re-started 24 hr prayer for Ps Khong. For ynet, we are covering Wed & Fri every week whole year round. Do note that the definition of a day starts from 12 noon of the assigned date and ends 12 noon the next day. We have 3 dates for Jan round, total 4 rounds in 2009 (Apr, July & Oct too):

2 Jan 12noon Fri to 3 Jan 12noon: Melissa, Xueling, Huimin & Joelle, pl note
7 Jan 12 noon Wed to 8 Jan 12 noon: Dellia, Cindy, Rachel & all my 12, pl note. (Thur 9.30-12noon hard to find ppl to cover be it students or working ppl). Can anyone of you take another 15 min slot or suggest someone in your tribe who can & assign her?
9 Jan 12noon Fri to 10 Jan 12noon: Huiling, Celine & Abrie pl note.

The format of praying:

5 min: SP & Nina (marriage, spiritual walk & physical health)
5 min: SP’s family (Anthony, Priscilla & Isaac, Michelle, Daniel)
5 min: SP apostolic leadership (Love Singapore, G12, FCBC)
Any other things as the Lord leads.

For those with adult members, some can take a 30 min slot instead of doing 15 min slots. For the youths, you’d need to guide them. Do use this as a chance to teach them how to pray & learn to love their neighbour, in this case, SP. For Jan, do cover SP in prayer as he rises up to take on the Love Singapore leadership with stepping into Pastor’s prayer summit 12-15 Jan 09. Pray for favour with the churches and that unity will come to Singapore churches through SP. Pray also for the Chingay coming up, esp safety and that the whole performance will be successful for the glory of God. For those who are able to pray in tongues, this is also a place they can move into praying in tongues more too.

I won’t cover specifics in tomorrow’s congre. Will need you all to follow up on your own, so do check your slots on the roster attached. Cu tomorrow!

debra

Amazing!!

So my dad was bringing joss paper out to burn, and my sis asked, "Ehh how come this time is you burn? Usually is mom right?" Behind my dad, my mom signalled no by crossing her arms, then pointed to herself and did the sign of the Cross that Catholics do. HAHAHA so cute.

Then at night she started talking to me about miracles. Then she told me, "Life is filled with troubles, i think one day i'd just go and believe in God with you, go church weekly and go do volunteer work." I said, "Don't you already believe in Him?" She replied, "I do...but i'm still like hanging in the middle now.." Hee she really knows...

Talked about how God has changed my life, and she affirmed that i really changed a lot after knowing Him. Then she told me, "Zhen, you must get married to a Christian mature man k...I can't wait for the day you get married (usually she'd say she'd be very sad when i get married and leave the house), because i know that i'd be entrusting you to the Lord, and your husband will take care of you. And i'd be so happy that i'd become more radiant, and your child-it'd be a son-will be such a joy to me, running to me and calling, "Grandma, Grandma!""

Aww...so amazing right. Then guess what, later on that night, she actually went to Spike and asked her, "Hui, why you never go to church anymore? Must go okay..."

Hallelujah. God You are so amazing.
