Finally the holidays are here!! But I feel abit empty now that I don't have school to occupy my time.. What I want to do is go to church EVERY DAY!! I wanna serve EVERY DAY!! Even if I'm doing it for free cos I want to be around Kingdom people doing Kingdom stuff..
The things I used to find fun have lost their flavor for example, DoTA ( i keep losing anyway).. Tibia( All my buddies disappeared...) Basically computer gaming in general...Yet since the holidays begun I been just trolling around on my com sometimes doing nothing at all!
Tried looking for a job( Best if its in the church ^^) but all the jobs that suits my needs are MLM aka Scams..
Sigh...
Anyway.. Our first Miracle Seed of the year has just come and gone! Guess how much we raised in 1 sunday?
S$18.8 million dollars!! Thats more pwnage than any charity show in EVER! and our church size is only 21000( new record attendance!! )
Btw, we were lingering at around 18000~19000 before the Miracle Seed sunday was announced. But when pastor decided during the 4th Service out of the blue that we gonna have Miracle Seed, our numbers just shot up suddenly.. Its as if people were coming simply to give!!
Praise Jesus..
I decided out of every allowance, Im gonna tithe 10%, sow 20% and deposit 20%, leaving 50% to spend. God's gonna multiply that 50% so I'm not gonna worry... Thank you Lord for blessing me to be a blessing...

100 FOLD !!! ITS FINALLY HERE!! HAHA
A few days ago, I blogged about a certain condition that I had which was causing me some distress...
The doctors said it was an infected tooth and that I needed to go for an operation that costs $850 minimum for the pain to be gone permanently. At that point I told the Lord, "I reject it in Jesus's name!" and everytime I took the anti-biotics, I would take 1 pill, take the Holy Communion, then proceed to take the other pill.
Then, on sunday, Pastor Prince preached on Holy Comm! as well as the importance of understanding the Word going forth from the pulpit. I knew the healing had begun then and would manifest itself before the antibiotics ran out. As it was, the dentist was only available on thursday and that meant by right, I would need to endure at least 4 days and nights of torment.
Here is the miracle. From that sunday, I did not lose an ounce of sleep to that tooth as it did not hurt at night like it did the previous 2 days. Also, from tuesday, it did not hurt at all even if i pressed my tongue on it, or when i accidentally bit a spoon. Now, today is thursday, and it doesnt hurt at all even when i chew off a burger! Praise God!
Tomorrow, I am going to get an X-ray of the area once more, and get pictures so that they can be evidence to my testimony! I'll be writing a testimony to Arrow and NCC so that the world listening can rejoice that God does not only heal the pastors and leaders, but also the little people as well...
Amen!

30 fold, 60 fold, 100 fold !!
I have read several blogs already with this title and many times, it has been in the area of prosperity. This time, I can actually relate, and it will be in the area of supernatural healing.
I talked about this infected tooth that was causing me problems just a few days before and had a few sleepless nights thanks to the pain. Well, on sunday, Pastor Prince preached a message on the importance of understanding the rhema a.k.a "NOW" word that was being preached. As it was, the Rhema on that day was on the Holy Communion. But the blessing did not start there. Lets go back in time a few hours....
In the morning ( sunday morning), I had to get up early for TaeKwonDo(TKD) grading exam. This was not easy due to the fact that just the night before, I was silently pulling my hair out over the pain. At breakfast, I found that it had worsened to the point that I could not even eat a fried egg without it hurting. Fortunately for me, it did not cause any other problems except when I pressed my tongue onto the tooth by accident.
After lunch, I made my way to the MRT to go to Suntec for church. Who would have guessed that I would run into my Ministry leader on the platform, and when the train arrived, we then bumped into another Ministry member! LOL.. what were the odds.. Anyway, I shared with my leader about my problem and he advised me that if the problem required surgery in the end, I should bring up the option of using MediShield to cover the costs. At that, I was relieved that IF it did come to pass that I needed to go for the "root canal " treatment, at least it would no longer be a hindrance to my BIG plans for 2009! Praise God!
I had also asked my ex caregroup leader to lend me several healing messages to feed on and build up my spirit in the hope that faith would come by hearing, and hearing the Word of Christ. But when I met him later on, he forgot to bring them T_T.. for a moment I was in despair and had almost resigned myself to "fate" by asking one of the leaders for the contact number of a dentist that they could trust.
What I did not know was that Abba Daddy had already positioned the blessing to come my way. During Communion, I took it so seriously, like never before. When Pastor came on, he began to share on the Holy Communion that we had just partaken of, and the significance of the Parable of the Sower. Throughout the message I could really feel the love that God has for me and Heaven and Earth were being moved specially for me. Pastor confirmed all the things I had in my heart and was believing for.
Almost immediately, the devil tried to steal it from me. All of a sudden, halfway through the message, I felt a heavy drowsiness and the urge to sleep. And the passage Pastor was sharing on at that moment was :" ... is like one who hears the Word, but does not understand it. And the devil comes along and takes it away from him."
When my drowsy eyes caught that, I immediately sat upright and leaned on the edge of my chair so as to prevent myself from missing my revelation.
As the message came to a close, I was like "HUH? so fast end ar? Give me more!!". There was nothing to deny the fact that my heart had become good ground for sowing. Proof of that was the 30-fold manifestation of supernatural healing. My tooth did not hurt if I did not touch it and by the next morning, the pain had almost disappeared! Hallelujah!
Right now, it is the dullest of all pain that I have felt since my ordeal began, and I know that the 100 fold blessing is not far off. By the time of my next checkup on thursday, I will surprise the dentist when she tries to find the infection and it will not be there HAHA!!
All praise to my Lord who healeth me, the one whom Jesus loves.

My very present help...
3 posts in a single day... wow.. lol.. But whats important is that whenever God speaks to me, I listen, and then if I think it will help set other people free, I will put it up here.
I did something very brave today. I went to the dentist on my own. You people may laugh and say " What? just the dentist? LOL noob!" but I think I might have mentioned it before, I am very terrified of the profession and anything to do with them. The doctor said I had an infection, and would need to come back for a "root canal" treatment that would cost close to a thousand dollars.
Now, in earlier posts I had said that having to pay such a large amount of money would really come in the way of my Israel Trip + Driving license. So I am currently believing for the miraculous healing and restoration of my tooth and that the x ray would show that I would not need to go for that operation.
Under normal circumstances, I would be hiding under my bed, refusing to go for the operation, even if I scream every day from pain from just that one tooth. But I had recieved the empowerment in my mouth to proclaim the Good Works of the Lord, and I cant scream and share at the same time. Today I was willing to suffer the short term for the Ministry I had been given.
Where does this power and courage come from? From hearing and believing God's covenant and knowing that He will settle this specially for me. I do not know how, I dont know when, but I know that He will heal me spectacularly. Be it a sudden refreshing of the nerves or a angelic operation at night while I'm asleep, the doctors will be amazed at my testimony.
I will let the entire church know, that God is not just a God for the deacons, the leaders nor the "mighty in His Word", but He is also a God of the weak, of the young, of the inexperienced. They will know that God can heal toothaches as easily as He can heal cancer. Heck, while I'm at it, I'll ask Him to heal my eyes of short-sightedness too. I'm growing weary of wearing specs all the time.
So Hello to shiny new teeth, hello to spec free eyes and Hello to the extra 20 CM in height that I have always wanted. I can be so hard to please sometimes.. Haha..

is 2009 really my Dektos year? the Drama...
2 corinthians 1: 15 ~20
"15 Because I was sure of this, I wanted to come to you first, so that you might have a double pleasure; 16 I wanted to visit you on my way to Macedonia, and to come back to you from Macedonia and have you send me on my way to Judea. 17 Was I vacillating when I wanted to do this? Do I make my plans like a worldly man, sometimes saying Yes, at other times saying No? 18 As surely as God is faithful, our word to you has not been Yes and No. 19 For the Son of God, Jesus Christ, whom we preached among you, Silvanus and Timothy and I, was not Yes and No; but in Him it is always Yes. 20 For all the promises of God find their Yes in Him. That is why we utter the Amen through Him, to the glory of God"
When I saw this verse, I was having a severe toothache the night before and unfortunately, I have a phobia of dentists. And the funny thing was, it intensified greatly only after my leader had declared my 2009 to be my "dektos" year, a year of profuse and free favors of God, and I knew that as I recieved the power to Speak the Word and proclaim His work, the devil discovered I was being empowered and worked to literally shut me up.
When my CG found out they prayed with me and I said Amen to healing and strength was renewed like the eagle. But when I got home, the pain just hit harder and harder. Clearly it was not a natural pain. I was not expecting an easy night at all, but after a panadol, I fell asleep while thinking on God's word and His promise of healing. This morning, I was told by my mother that I might have to undergo an expensive operation to do a "root canal" or implant a new tooth, as the problem area was the front tooth and having a hole there would be disastrous. I rejected it immediately and declared that it would require nothing more than a simple repair and that the Lord will take care of the rest.
While I was at fault for neglecting to brush everyday, I knew that the Lord is willing and well able to restore me. So before I go to the dentist, I shall declare for the world that God is in total control over my tooth and will not allow anything to harm me. He will work in the dentist and cause him/her to be careful and that the operation will not hurt. At all. I reject all reports of having to extract that tooth, for it is interfering with my plans for 2009. God is not just a God of big things, but of little things too.
Besides, I'm already believing God for my very first Israel Trip! And it will be my very first time on a plane too! PLUS!! I'm believing for enough spare change to get my driving liscence around the same time before they change the age limit. So I shall not allow this minor demon of infirmity to ruin my big plans.
If you happen to chance upon this blog, please comment with an Amen, for if 2 or more shall agree, it will be done for me in Heaven.
Amen?

Posts can be tithed too! Woot~
Hey Jesus,
I decided I'm gonna "tithe" a post out of every 10 posts to you, starting with the 1st one. I recently recieved the desire to pursue your Word in the mornings before school starts and I'm glad to announce that it is becoming a delightful activity thanks in part to Pastor Prince. The reason why I'm writing it all on a public blog is to show the world that I am the student whom Jesus loves and that they may see your Good Work in my life.
Before this I was always stuck on what to blog about since I'm not very popular, of average height, constantly broke and as a result, have nothing to blog about except " Hey! I stayed at home on a wonderful saturday morning playing DotA." and wash, rinse, repeat for the next few years.
But now, as I embraced your Word, I can feel your prescence in me. I wanna be like the other bloggers out there who have obtained a 5th-dan in Sword of the Spirit wielding like Malcolm, Jiaeen29(i dunno how to spell ur name properly sry! Is it 3 e's or 2?), Terrence and the other established bloggers. So I'll take 1 step at a time, with You guiding me in the way I should go, feeding and learning more and more.
The biggest challenge now is how to end this post.. I think I'll do it with a prayer:
Lord, thank you Lord. You have blessed me and taken me directly under Your wing, to teach me and guide me till I am a Giant-killer. Thank you Lord for the free-flowing favor that I have among my peers and superiors. Lord I thank you that you have promised even though you dont have to, that I shall not lack in my week to come, and that every trial will be my bread, and I shall overcome. All this I declare, in Jesus's name, Amen.
