I love God more than ever

Verses of the day: 

2 Peter 2:6 - ...if He did not spare the ancient world when He brought flood on its ungodly people, but protected Noah, a preacher of righteousness, and 7 others, if He condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah (homosexual cities) by burning them to ashes, and made them an example of what is going to happen to the ungodly, and if He rescued Lot, a righteous man, who was distressed by the filthy lives of lawless men (for that righteous man, living among them day after day, was tormented in his righteous soul by the lawless deeds he saw and heard) - if this is so, then The Lord knows how to rescue godly men from trials and to hold the unrighteous for the day of Judgment, while continuing their punishment.

Psalm 37: 1-2 - “Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against workers of iniquity. For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.”

today when i was discussing project with my schoolmates, the topic suddenly turned very very sexual. i was at a loss to what i should do. and i was both shocked and astonished that even the girls were talking about the stuff. (i used to be like this though)

i don't claim to be sinless and i won't LOOSELY claim that i am "holy" because i know God is the true Holy One. but we as His children are called to try our best to be holy.

it was a weird moment for me. when my schoolmates started to immerse themselves in the sexual content, laughing, giggling and joking. at that point of time, i was thinking of what do u all know?

i was asking God to protect the Church's sheep from the decadence of the world's moral values, and praying that NEVER NEVER WILL THESE kind of people who gratify and love sinful desires, come near my cell group members. never. (though they are my schoolmates...)

it is astonishing to see how people my age have been so drastically desensitised by the evil of satan. how they have forgetten what their parents have taught them, how they have discarded their "soft" and "discerning" heart towards evil. i felt really really bad.

 God made us to be like Him, not to defile ourselves and to learn from the pits of hell.

i felt really oppressed at the moment. nowhere did i have a stand to say anything. i was at a loss for words.

i could REALLY just imagine how possible and how EAGER, that if there was a chance, that atheists and God-haters will wanna lay their hands on Christians and just finish us off.

"God, let not the culture of the world seep into Your Church, deliver the righteous from the wicked" 

its freaky to know that the people who were indulging in the conversation were ex-christians, and a Catholic. A non-believer just kept quiet like i did. Shame on people who bring a bad name to The Holy God. 

like i say, i don't claim to be perfect and holy. BUT, i admit that i am a sinful man and i die to my sinful self everyday. If anyone claims to be without sin, one is a HYPOCRITE and a liar to himself.

These days, it is getting harder to be a true faithful Christian. I pray that saints around the world will be faithful, patient to await our Prince and Saviour to come.

Alpha and Omega be with you all believers.  

yesterday Amazing Race Youth Imapact Edition was so so so fun.!

my group first stop was Kallang Station. from there, we were told to choose between a roadblock or a detour. we choose a roadblock

we were then directed to Kallang basin, where we had to build a raft with 4 rubber tyres, 5 poles, and raffia string. it was real fun and we needed teamwork. in the end, 4 of us got onto the raft.

wah. i actually volunteered kong sheng as one of the paddlers. but in he din wan to in the end..hahazz..dunno why?

but i went up with a ger, and 2 other young people..very young in fact. haha. the whole thing was so tough. err..but well...it was real real fun!

then we went Boat quay where we had to take fotos with statues in different locations, get lipstick marks from 6 ppl. there was one woman whom me and kong sheng approached. and after we got the lipstick from her, we were so happy! and xcited cos she seemed so nice and game in. but when she spoke, eh....it was a HE. i think...

 lols..but well...he/she was still very helpful la.

from boat quay,  if im not wrong, we went to Suntec Carrefour. we had to buy things worth 85 cents. it was quite hard. and we had to solve a jigsaw puzzle. and then we went to Fort Canning Park.it was an eye opener for me. i have never really been Up to Fort Canning b4.. quite cool..

everything was xciting, challenging...the transport routes we took i think were very well planned. cos me and Ah hau are street wise people ok..hahaha.plus huishan maybes.haha

after that was the evanglistic outreach. hmmm.. i really was touched by a story that Pastor Daniel told.

it is about this eaglet (baby eagle) which has lived with chickens all its life. as it grew up, it thought that it was a chicken. it even started to behave like chickens, be lazy, jus eat and make alot of noise, and be dirty and eat the worms in the ground. it was even proud of being a chicken!

then one day, a mother eagle soared above the place where the eaglet lived all its life. the mother eagle let out a cry, in hope to catch the attention of the baby..

for the first time in its life, the eaglet saw the heavens, it saw the sky. and it saw someone which look like it....

it started to flap its wings.and from that day onwards, soared above the heavens...

we are like the little eaglet. and God is like the mother eagle, a BIG PARENT of us. all our lives, before we knew Him, and sometimes even after we know Him, we pick up bad habits, we rebel against Him, we do the filthiest things in life and so on...and we think life sucks, we think we belong to nowhere but jus the misery state we are in... 

but if only one day we would look up the sky toward heaven and look at God whoo created us to be like Him...then we will know and soar above the heavens with Him.  

i'm having class now. html class.. argh... trying to learn macromedia fireworks. think some of my cell members can help me right? im always bad with these things. except photoshop. i like photoshop.

going sentosa after this class. cool. heh...

nth much..planning to go shopping with someone nextweek.

and also the skater guy i knew online asked me hw to pray to Jesus!

he was such a God hater at first. im so glad.

i hope he will really see that God is there to help him. nt to condemn him.

the thought of what im gonna do during and after my army days came to me yesterday after nite life.

nite life was really anointed.and The Lord's presence was so tangible. i cried to Jesus not to pass me by.

even if it is just touching the train of His robe, let me.

jus dun pass me by Jesus.

the thought came.and i wondered.and i wondered if its me.or God. the word "full-time" came to me. haha.

Bible says: "of what account is man, he is nothing but a breath." i shall not say much abt this first. haha.

it might be God calling me to go full-time after my army. or is it myself? hehheh.

of all, yesterday night, the most important thing was crying out to Jesus to just enter into all the rooms of my heart.

i realise how important God is in my life, and how important the church is to me too...

don't pass me by Jesus. let me be the one who will run after You and the one to climb up the tree to catch a glimpse of Your Glory...

can You Lord just make me into a robot and cause me to love You completely?  

"but He will not do this"

i cant believe the work You have done on the Cross. why would God love such a damned generation as us? i cant make it out still.

but i'm glad im with Him. "i'm clinging onto the Cross"

right now, i am actually coming up with a script based on Christian persecution in Singapore in the end days.

its an assignment. and i hope one day i get to produce it. HIGH DREAMS. but well. lets see to God's will.haha

hopefully i can post it here too.but then hor.sekali got ppl copy my work how.hahaha.

thought of the day: Science does not create anything new. It just discovers the law and order of things that were already established since Creation.

thought of the day: A constipated Christian is one who goes for seminars, talks, cell groups, courses, services etc, but is one who will NEVER share the knowledge of  the Gospel and the Good news learnt, to his/her fellow friends who are on their way to hell. Are u constipated? LOL.

thought of the day: There are 2 kinds of christians: Soul Winners and Backslidders. cool?

thought of the day: Stop asking and demanding and wanting so much, fellow Christians. Stop being so self-centred and being a selfish little worm. Didnt God bless you enough already?

thought of the day: Do you know that there are no such things as "part-time", "moderate" or "half-baked" Christians? God will "vomit" these "believers" out of His mouth on the Day of Judgement.

thought of the day: Do you know that everytime you bring a bad name to Jesus in front of your friends and family or when you sin behind closed doors, you are actually CRUCIFYING JESUS CHRIST ALL OVER AGAIN and subjecting Him to public shame?

thought of the day: Do you know something as simple as not "praying and thanking God for your food" in front of your friends and relatives because you feel awkward or shy is as serious as denying our Lord Jesus Christ?

thought of the day: Your weakness can be the thing to glorify God but if not dealt with, your weakness can be satan's best weapon to make you fall.

the conference was awesome.

it was not just another emotional conference. it was a powerful and learning conference.

these past weeks, God has been telling me to be very sensitive and obedient to the Holy Spirit's promptings.

to hear for God's small still voice...

we know He prompts, we know He speaks. but how many times do we LISTEN and OBEY Him...

the preacher was right. 90% of today's christians are sometimes living in disobedience and deafness to the Holy Spirit's promptings and advices most of the times. 

heard so many testimonies of how God reveals things in His small voice and whispers and how it benefited so many things and people...

out of this busyness of the world, i must settle down my heart and yearn for His voice.

the conference also made us go into the streets to evangelise, to tell people to come for the evangelistic outreach on the spot kinda thing..

awesome. my cell members were exposed to street-E. and about 20 people were saved that night... COOL!

"if God is for us, who can be against us?"

i will go where Jesus sends me. 

Holy Spirit is our Helper and Counsellor whom our Lord Jesus Christ promised...if only we will listen to His whispers...

if only we will heed His warnings...

if only we will obey His promptings...

i will learn to. God make me obedient and sensitive to Your call upon my life!

i don't to just be someone caught in a disobedient sinful vicious cycle, or someone who worships You in vain and with lip service only.

i want to walk by Your ways, in Your pastures. 

Noah's Ark has been found!

officially.

haha! Revival sweep our land. Come on come on! 

this proves the covenant of God has been true from of old to 2000 years ago to now.

the floods came so that God can give us a covenant of not flooding our earth and letting our earth thrive.

Jesus Christ came as a promise of a Messiah, a promise of old.

Holy Spirit is here as a covenant that God will never leave us till Christ comes back!

look to the Bible now!

human beings found out the earth was round abt 700 years ago.

the Bible tells us the earth is circle about 4000 years ago.

human beings just found out archaeological findings under the Red Sea, leading ppl to believe in the Red Sea Seperation by Moses.

Bible told us this 4000 years ago.

how long will we turn away from our pride and foolishness?

and to humble ourselves for God's wisdom?

let us hear His voice from now.and pray for revival to sweep across nations...

Let God use our churches today to share the Good News of His Coming, and of the Way, the Truth, the Life, and of the Father. 

im compelled to say that, if u as a christian are not going to bring to God a good testimony and an honourable deed, then please make way and stop hindering other people from knowing Christ just so becos of your weak faith, and ur empty claims abt u being a christian.

u noe what the early church do to ppl who "backslide"? (by the way, ppl who backslide were called infidels, or rebels) 

they chop off their heads.

i mean no one is gonna chop off ur heads if u backslide, and thats nt a good way either, but if i claim to be a christian but my ways and BEHAVIOURS are not, alot of my frens' heads and blood will be on me!

why should we stop and hinder others from knowing Christ by our unworthy behaviour???? are we not being very selfish if we do that?

Christians who are not ready to live for Christ, please make way for Christians who are ready and passionate to live for Christ daily. please get our own lives right b4 God so as not to stumble anyone. 

do not subject Jesus Christ to public shame by our bad behaviour. that is as serious as crucifying our Lord again.

if u have the relationship with Jesus Christ, ur life and deeds will show fruits of righteousness from God Himself.

dun pay lip service to God today. walk ur life in Christ. 

you know that if some of us go to cell group and church for the sake of going and for an "acting" session, newcomers can feel it? they can feel the phoniness..and the fakeness...

and they will leave.

becos why?

guess why? guess why? guess why?

becos they have seen the best actors and actresses in Hollywood and they can DISCERN and differentiate what is real and what is acting.

and they can sense hypocrisy too.

so im afraid that if we are there jus for a show and jus to play church, newcomers will find it disgusting, and they will leave as they will find it no different as from a cast of actors and actresses.

human lives have cheapened so much of recent times...

there are laws to punish ppl for killing animals..but there no laws to punish ppl for abortion, for the killing of foetuses.

there are people using people for sex slaves...

there are people living just to SURVIVE the rat race of life.and with much struggling.

there are people who just end their lives by jumping down buildings, slashing their wrists.. there was a 5 year old in Indonesia who killed herself... what is the world becoming?

there are secondary school boys in uniform soliciting for prostitutes in Geylang...

now what is happening?

"if u open ur eyes, u will see that something is wrong..."

and if u see it, this is just what the Bible is talking about. that the world will become so tormenting and torturing to live in for christians.

Ezekiel37:11 “Our bones are dried up and our hope is gone; we are cut off.”  as Ezekiel predicted in God what will become of our generations.

but God will always give us a chance to relive with hope.

‘Then he said to me, “Prophesy to these bones and say to them, ‘Dry bones, hear the word of the Lord! This is what the Sovereign Lord says to these bones: I will make breath enter you, and you will come to life. I will attach tendons to you and make flesh come upon you and cover you with skin; I will put breath in you, and you will come to life. Then you will know that I am the Lord.’ ”

if in the process of life, you lose your life, and lose the meaning of life, and you feel empty, look to our Creator and His Word. or jus say a simple prayer as this :

God i regconize i am a sinner and sins in my life has caused me to forsake my life and soul and spirit.. i regconise that You died on the Cross for my sins to bring me back to life, and to wash away my sins.i thank You Lord and i now invite You into my heart. i pray in the Name of Jesus. Amen.

liangzhi's mike hang again. msn hang. haha.. so here i am blogging. while waiting for him.

mondays are so free for me. no school. then today also dun feel like going out with churchies. must spend time with family.

well...

baptism was great. seeing my cell members declaring their faith in our God, im so touched and glad.

pray that these people will be wise builders of the House.

pastor daniel did mention in nite life that we have become complacent and even "proud", that which i suggested.

so i asked my cell members:

are you a lamed christian ? lame in ur faith, that is.

L osing your battle?

A cting in church? playing church?

M aking a cry to God day and nite? if not you are lamed..

E vangelising actively? if not then you are crippled in your faith

D are to be real christian outside of church? if not you are crippled too..

so now ppl, are u lamed in ur faith? if you are lame in one of the aspects, ask God to change you in that area.

youth impact cannot afford to be complacent. we have to be like what we used to be.

PASSIONATE, BRINGING NEW PPL EVERY WEEK, PRAYING IN SCHOOLS, SHARING IN SCHOOLS, PERSECUTED BY AUTHORITIES BUT STILL PRAYING EVERYWHERE. LOVING EACH OTHER, TAKING CARE OF EACH OTHER, NOT GOSSIPING,  LOOKING OUT FOR EACH OTHERS' CELL GROUPS..

then are we a strong church. not a lamed one, or a crippled one. or a strong cell, not a crippled one.
