Unity.. @ 18:58

Psa 133
A Song of degrees; of David. Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brothers to dwell together in unity!

2 It is like the precious ointment on the head that ran down on the beard, Aaron's beard, that went down to the mouth of his garments;

3 like the dew of Hermon that came down on the mountains of Zion; for there the LORD commanded the blessing, life forevermore.

An explanation of now and ahead. @ 12:28

Pst Paul Scanlon preached about winter is over, spring has come. He shared about being beaten to the ground like a wrestling match, the devil starts counting to 10 (10 means we are defeated and lost the match). Before it reached 10, you will lift your shoulder so that he will have to reount again.

You do this until you start to lift your body up from the ground. You keep trying and looking forward until you are up again; you have no idea how you did but you did it by the grace of God.

There is a shift in the season but you will never know when is the first day of spring because it happens under the snow from the winter.

It was winter, you sense a change in the season and you are ready for spring to sow into this season. You are out of winter, remove the layers (protection), get ready for spring (doing a new thing) and have a different language for spring (speaking ahead than from the past). Your thinking, words, vision changes.

When you dress for spring and it is the very early of spring, you look out of place because the rest are still dressed for winter.

God is preparing His team for spring and He has already called us. Some of us already know that He has called and given the vision. It may not come from the leadership instead from the crowd rising up to the occassion.

And you know who you are.


I was astonished, dumbfounded or whatever adjective is it to describe what was going on in me as he was preaching last night. I was tearing at my seat because everything, EVERYTHING that he has described related to me but the difference was he could add language to what I sense.

Since last week, when Dr Cho shared "without a vision, the people will perish." I wanted to make a change. On Tuesday, I started to have visions and word from God to meet various ones and I did that before service yesterday (before he shared what he shared). Wednesday during choir worship, I really wanted Him to speak to me, instead He spoke last night.

Today, Pst Paul Scanlon shared about the growth environment. God has picked out a few people and they have left their comfort zone into an uncomfortable or out of their depth environment, inconvenient, not easy etc. In the growth environment, we are in the midst of people who doesnt like us, dont get us, misunderstood our motive and intentions. Same sentiments again.

It is a rhema word; a divine understanding for the situation now and forward.


During the service last night, the Holy Spirit reminded me not to allow past successes, experiences, visions and revelations to control my future neither use them for my future. Because the future is new using new revelation which will be given, new experiences will be formed, new successes will be achieved. Dont allow the past to limit your future because we are going from glory to glory, strength to strength. So the past is NOT the ceiling, its not the highest point we can go now, we will go even higher.
This is not a coincidence. Once again, You are reaffirming my faith, confidence and decision as well as reassuring that I am at the right track.

1. God commanding Joshua (the next leader after Moses has passed away)
Joshua 1:3-9
This was shared by 1 of the band member from ALM before they ended the worship night yesterday.

These verses was given when I was a leader facing no growth in the cell group for a year and more. It has always encouraged me not to be fearful but be bold and courageous in this walk, to keep believing because God has commanded.

2. Valley of dry bones
Ezekiel 37:3-14
This was shared by Pst Tan this morning during woship. And I shared the very same things with Alvin and Yaowen.

Dead dreams can come alive again. And once again, we will move on from here although we do not know what has been laid ahead, we will just take a step and go.
Luke 5:36-39
36 And He also spoke a parable to them: No one puts a piece of a new garment on an old garment. Otherwise, both the new will tear, and the old does not match the piece from the new. 37 And no one puts new wine into old wineskins. Else the new wine will burst the wineskins and be spilled, and the wineskin will perish. 38 But new wine must be put into new wineskins, and both are preserved together. 39 Also no one having drunk old wine immediately desires new, for he says, The old is better.

Winter to spring. You need to change your clothing an take off the multiple layers of clothing. The things that you say, do, think and see should change.

No one will inform you as the farmer that spring is here. Instead you got to know and sense the season changing by putting away what you know, distractions around and tune in to the special calling and voice given to you. If you dont sense the change of season, it can pass you by!

Knowing it is spring is not enough instead you need to participate in it and sow into that season.

In spring time, things happen faster than winter.

Listen, obey, trust, pray and believe.

Visualization @ 13:07

I remembered most of my weaknesses but forsake my strengths.

As I was on my way to office, I was praying and the Holy Spirit came and reminded me. I am good at visualizing as visuals are the most effective way for me to comprehend or remember well. I recalled when I was studying, the fastest way to absorb the overview of things is using the mind map as a summary of everything I have studied. Every point should link together and form a picture or story.

The Holy Spirit reminded me "You are good at visualizing. Use your visualization to make miracles happen. So what do you want to have? Visualize it."

I felt like I have forgotten many things when stepped down from the leadership. It was like returning everything that I have learnt or experience to the Teacher. I always believe that when we pray and visualize the things that God has given the 'go ahead, it will happen' approval, it will definitely come to past. And how do you know that He has given the green light? It is through His peace, through praying, through worshipping, through the rhema word which was given and sometimes it is through people.

It doesn't matter about what others say about it or how crazy it may seem or how impossible it can be, it will by no means happen. Because the things which He has said will never return to Him void. However, it requires our faith and constant perseverance to keep believing that it will happen. And we do that by rememebering the vision or rhema word that He has given and keep visualizing.

I remember "If you can see it, you can have it." Keep believing. Keep visualizing.
