| Start of family cell!! |
BEFORE
Wanted to start open cell.
Suddenly mum made comments , sis reacted, mum cried, dad added coal to fire.. mum cried more, sis got more frustrated
I was shocked.. but I know it was not wise for me to say anything.
I told them I will go for a run, an hour later, we will start cell
During the run, the start was hard. Someone it parallels the start of uniting the family together, it will not be easy cos the evil one is not pleased, I mustn’t be defeated cos it is all a spiritual warfare and I got to press on and complete the race instead of backing off when the start is difficult.
Prayed to the holy spirit.
The song empower me can to my mind.
The run back was much smoother, as I prayed for the holy spirit’s empowerment.
I want to return to experience that breakthrough in the family.
I vision positive images in my mind of recouncilation and of my family serving together.
1Follow the way of love and eagerly desire spiritual gifts, especially the gift of prophecy.
I want to eagerly desire the holy spirit. I don’t know how, but may the run I take represent my eager desire.
Running in a team is enjoyable with pple to spur you on. But there are times that you got to run alone, with the holy spirit. A goal to fellowship with the holy spirit via a run weekly.
I must not slacken, each time I feel tried, I want to run. TO run to complete this race for you.
As I reached the end mark, I smiled, cos I told the Lord that the battle has been won. I want to end the race well with a smile on my face.
God gave me the passion to teach in encounter “plan of redemption, he desires not just for his people to be in heaven at the end of their life on earth, but to start experiencing heaven on earth, that abundant life he has for them.
My sharing on physical healing- though God did not heal, but it was for a reason for me to experience the process.. coincidentally on the day after encounter taching, ps khong will be preaching on why at times healing does not take place.
I want more of the Holy Spirit.
AFTER- by the grace of God!
v Cell was great.
v Ground rule of family cell: to not think of how another person can apply the word but how I can apply the word.- Heh.. got to keep re-emphasising this to my family man.
v The family was really defensive initially but as the Holy Spirit moved, the hearts softened.
v The word was from Ephesians 4:25-32.
v Three areas of to overcome in the family:
v Anger- don’t sin in anger, don’t harbour anger hence.. got to
v speak the truth, with grace
v Speak the truth in a way that will build each other up.
v Application:
-Each shared an area that he/she struggled and how to grow in it
- To forgive as God forgive. Each of us took turns to pray a prayer of repentance and seek each other’s forgiveness. Was a great time of reconciliation!
v It was strange when dad shared that with me, he doesn’t harbour anger.. he then added in that it was cos of respect for me.. ha.. though the implication isn’t good (that he gets upset with the rest, cos he doesn’t respect them as much)
v Thank God for the testimony I have in the family, the openness for me to speak.
In every situation, we can choose to see the cup half full or half empty. Trusting in God is choosing to see it half full and allowing Him to fill the rest of it! God will either change the circumstance or the person. Allow the Lord to mould you today, through trials produce that Christ-like character in You. Choose to not be defeated! =) |

| Love song from my lover =) |
It has been a season of just walking close to HIM and seeing His hand in every situation in my personal life and ministry. Just feel that i have moved on to another season with You. And You are teaching me just how to really depend on You in prayer. I will see my ministry flourish and thru' it Your name will be glorified, becos' it is done not by my might or strength but by You, thru' prayers.
Growing in You is just so exciting. Not to forget the growth in the love between You and me. It is just so amazing to experience You as my lover.
Was just walking and spending time alone, when i heard the words, "just to be with you.." i was trying to think what was the song that God is placing in my heart for me. When i talked to NY, she referred me to a song with these words.
When i heard it and saw the words, i realised that it is my lover wanting to sing these words to me. ha.. so romantic.. His love is the only love that can satisfy and well, He is the best lover anyone can have..heh.. high standards set by Him.
Just to be with me.. you did so much.. your promises are not empty and you will never fail.. you paid every price just to be with me. Let's walk together till the end of time..
Lord/Lover/Father/Friend, I thank you for this song of this season.. Continue to speak to me thru ur voice and thru songs. I love you.
