CONGRATULATIONS!!! so what's next?

  • Joseph
  • Caleb
  • Sheena
  • David
  • Brandon

Today was really a special moment for all of us I believe. It is truly a wonderful time for me personally, to see you all getting baptised today!
Baptism is one step forward, so what is next? For all of us, I really want you all to continue to pray for our dear Faith, that one day soon she will not only get baptised, but that her whole family will come joyfully to witness it! - This is a day I am looking forward to!

But for all us, everyone. it is time to move forward, from being the one sponsored, to becoming a sponsor! move to the next level quickly so that i can retire from being your Chief Nagger =P

I want everyone - Jonathan, Joseph, Brandon, Ben, David, Caleb, Faith, Sheena. to fulfill 3 things

Quiet Time - 7 Days a week. God is eager to spend time with you! Are you? (Joseph)
Prayer - keep your family, cell members and friends in prayer daily. pray for yourself as well - to become an Intentional History Maker! (Brandon)
Outreach - focus for the remainder of the year to pray for 2 persons to come to Christ (siblings inclusive)! (Jonathan)

I will ask  Joseph/Brandon/Jonathan to be responsible to hold all of us accountable for these 3 areas till the end of 2007.

Our walk with God is a long one, a marathon. so keep yourself fit! =) GBU!

ps: if you have read this post, i  want you to send an sms to someone in our cell and tell that person you are keeping that person in prayer!

Are you willing to be a History Maker & Destiny Shaper?

3 types of History Makers
  1. Accidental History Maker (You stumble into your destiny, not on purpose)
  2. Situational History Maker (You enter into a situation or a place, where you cannot help but do something for God)
  3. Intentional History Maker (A purposeful choice, a decision. Will you make this choice? To Hear God & Obey Him?)
3 Characteristics of History Makers & Destiny Shapers
Prophetic in Vision: Speaking the words of God, a vision from the heart of God, placed on our hearts. His calling to us, that drives us, pulls us and motivates us!
progressive: always moving forward, never settled with the status quo
pro-active: bringing God's best into every aspect in everything God has given us to do; Bringing Glory to God. Act on their plans

I'm going to be passing around this audio sermon by Ps Benny Ho. I hope all of you will be willing to listen and hear & be blessed and Challenged by the Word of God!

live an intentional life, a life of purpose. in your hearts, all of you slowly, but surely, are beginning to sense that Call of Destiny that is from God. He's calling you forward in His Still Small Voice. slowly, but surely! Amen?

SO EXCITED FOR YOUR BAPTISM! i think i may shed a tear :) Blessed be the Name of the Lord! He is faithful beyond all measure!

thank u all :)

Dear Kairos =)

Once again, thank 4 blessing! i had a wonderful time with all of u today at cell.

I think that everyone has grown more open and comfortable with one another (or is it because of the makan!?)

Thanks Sheena & family for opening up their home to us. i really felt today that all our sharings and testimonies has planted some seeds in sheena's family members. when we open our homes to God and the fellowship of His people, there is a transforming power, something changes in the air, in the spiritual atmosphere - as our praises rise up to heaven, the Glory of God comes down upon us! When 2 or 3 gather in His name, Jesus is there with us! WoW! JC was in-da-house today! Amen?

nothing is more powerful that being able to see the transforming power of God thru someone's life! Keep shining brightly and one day "You and your household will be saved" (Acts 16:31)

thanks everyone for opening up and sharing with one another - keep growing in this, deeper and deeper, be a support and blessing to one another.
it is when we share our lives with one another that we grow from each other's experience. somehow, today the sharing was exceptional, everyone today so awake and full of excitement n energy! Praise God =)

remember that there's 3 parts:
Love focus on building up - focus on each other's strength and encourage and build each other up
Love never supports what is wrong and sinful - if your bro or sis is in sin or falls away from God, bring him/her back, keep them in prayer.
Love is also willing to say the difficult things. to say the hard things in Love.

thanks too today for mike joining us, and Ivan too! hope you enjoyed listening in on our cell =)
GBU!!

Dear Kairos,

how's everyone doing this week?
want to encourage everyone 2 keep firm, especially be watchful with your spiritual eyes.
keep a watchful eye on one another and keep each other in prayer.

keep blessing each other in prayer =)

watch out especially if you get suddenly get irritated, or feel sian, or start 2 get into arguments etc...

watch out....

1 peter 5: 8
Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.

John 10:10
The thief[devil] comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I[Jesus] have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.

so we must...

Eph 6:18
And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the saints.

Proud of U =)

Dear Kairos!

hope everyone had a wonderful time fellowshipping n praising God at FOP!
as i was standing there worshipping, i was reminded again of God's faithfulness to us.
1 yr ago when we went to FOP, most of you were only Christians for 1 month and yet God has kept you and blessed you thru 2 another year!

we don't deserve the blessings, yet His Grace is always with us. Amazing Grace that saved us.

my prayer for you is that you continue 2 stand firm in the Lord, keep growing deeper in love with Him, loving His Word and running after Him!

in a few weeks time you will be going for baptism - that is a special moment in your walk with God. and a special moment for me as well, that God has given me the privilege of seeing you all grow up in Him.

many of you are working through deeeper issues inside of you, some from your past, some from things that are happening to you right now. just remember that it is part of growing - that God begins to bring about that deep inner healing within you as the Holy Spirit works in you. it may be hurtful, it may be tough...but keep holding on to Him, hold on by Faith, not by sight, Hold on in Love, not by feelings.

keep trusting God =)
