Guan - God's Favor

I want to thank God for His favor upon me. He is indeed gracious and merciful. I have been praying to God for wisdom regarding the restructuring of one of the sections in my department where we had to outsource the work and as a result we had to find jobs for the affected staff. It was God's mercy that we could keep all the staff, except for one, due to retirement of some older staff in other areas. For this particular staff, I had dreaded to tell him that I could not keep him but I thank God that I did not have to do that. You see before I could break the news to him, he volunteered to accept the separation package and in fact he was looking forward to retire to do some business.

Another demonstration of God's favor was when I had to attend a meeting with senior management regarding some papers which I needed their approval. The Chairman had a reputation of being a tough and difficult boss. There were a number of papers which my department had submitted and I was not looking forward to the meeting. I prayed and I got my kids to pray. I felt I really needed a lot of prayers! I want to thank God that on that day God's wonderful favor was upon me. I did not have to defend too much the papers as he was doing the defending for me! Before the others could say anything, he would say that he agreed with the recommendations; and when others had questions about the papers he would answer their questions! All the papers were approved without breaking a sweat!

To God Be The Glory !!

God Has Supplied !!

In view that the current laptop is longer in usable condition, for several weeks, our members took turn to bring their personal laptop to be used during the church services. Appreciation to members like Wendy Ong who has helped in this aspect.

Two weeks ago, an announcement was made by Joshua in regards to the need the church has for a laptop.

God has touched the lives of 2 brothers (Guan and Mohan) to respond to the announcement and both supplied a laptop each. On behalf of the church, we would like to extend our appreciations to both the brothers for responding to the church's need.

Meanwhile, Joshua is in the process of "cleaning" up both the laptops. God bless! ...Daniel Cheang

We thank God for bringing Ps Caleb and Ps Debbie in our church on Sunday, 20 Jan. Part of their trip here is to teach us some hip-hop dance steps which our participants truly enjoy. What do you mean "hip-hop" dance - in church? Yes, God is the creation of all things on earth - and there's a need for the church to re-capture what the devil has taken for his own use. And this is just one step towards a long journey to reinstate the art culture for God.



God bless,

Hi, I wish to share a miracle that God has done in my colleague (Wendy)'s son. I remembered that during the last week of 2007, I shared something on my colleague-Wendy. Her husband's health (cancer and has 6 months to live according to doctor) and also her 1 year old son's kidney problem.

God has done His first miracle on the boy...He was diagnosed with an expanded kidney which he had undergone some tests (tubes and x rays etc). Doctor then said that the 1 yr old boy may have to go through an operation to correct the problem. Wendy's family was anxious and sad. I told her that I would pray and will have the church pray about this as well.

This morning, Wendy came over to me and thanked me for our prayers coz the test result was well. She was so excited and happy. She told me that the doctor mentioned this as a miracle. Though the swell on the kidney is still there, doc says it will heal by itself and no ops needed and next review is in 1 years time. Praise be to God!!! Miracles do happens!!

I believe God will bless another miracle on Wendy's husband. Please pray together with me for his health and the salvation of the family.

On Behalf of Sis Eileen

We thank God for an immediate answer to our prayers for Eileen's friend, Cecilia Lim. Eileen shared about Cecilia's medical condition (auto immunity) which requires her to go for dialysis. This was shared on Wed night prayer meeting, 9 Jan. And today, 10 Jan her doctor classified her fit for discharge tomorrow and no further treatment is required. Praise God for His mercy and healing upon Cecilia.

Last year, I requested the Prayer group to pray that I may find a Pastors accountability group that i can be part of. On Tuesday, 8 Jan 08, I received an invitation to join a pastor's accountability group that is being set up. Praise God for giving me this opportunity to share my life with pastoral peers.

Following my mom's death, my dad requested my family (Evan, Hannah & myself) to follow him to Australia for a Christmas break. I could not accede to his request as December is generally a busy period for church planning and furthermore, we had not financially budgeted for it. He said that he would like my family to join him for a trip during the Chinese New Year season. Understanding that he would like to have a part of the family with him during CNY, I told him our family will to join him.

In the back of my mind, I knew this will be a financial constraint for us as I have committed to a lump sum of our finances towards the building fund, but nevertheless I prayed and commit it to God. I prayed that some how i could receive a partial subsidy to accompany my dad.

And behold, I received a call today that my family's entire trip will be fully paid for. No one knew our financial constraint, but God is our Provider. Thank God for His provision.

From Joshua Sim

I had a torn/damaged tendon behind my right knee that cause great pain every time I bent down/squat and got up, so pain that I stopped using my right leg and depended on my left leg to do all the lifting. I consulted the doctor 1 week later, and he confirmed it was a either a torn or over-stretched tendon which will self-heal itself but will take 4 weeks.

I went back home got my family to pray (skye prayed) and in 2 days the pain left! Amazing! I myself was so amazed at that the 4 weeks I had to struggle through became 2 days! PRAISE THE LORD! Indeed God is showing me that HE HEALS supernaturally. There is nothing my God cannot do!

I had some hang-ups on healing, and I've been seeking God on this matter. In the last few months and with this experience, the hang-ups are gone! Glory to God! Praise God!

My mum wishes to Thank God for protecting her when she fell on Oct 11. The Lord has been healing her right wrist bone and is recovering well. I want to Thank God for keeping my parents aunts and I safe and providing our needs throughout 2007.

The Lord Jesus has been helping my pupils throughout 2007.They have improved in their studies. Particularly my PSLE students.

One who is a China pupil skipped level from Pr 4 to 6 has an aggregate score of 237. One is in ACS Independent Sch with an aggregate score of 251. Another I have been praying for her to be in a Christian school and she is in Presbyterian High School. The Lord has answered my prayers for them.

Only a few of u know I am a Bollywood movies fan. I particularly like this Bollywood verdant-eyes actress Aishwarya Rai. In May 2005 I was watching her Bollywood movie over Art Central Channel at 9pm while watching something stirred my heart - the words just appeared - start her fan club pray for her salvation and pray for India. I was disturbed and it took me 4 months to pray over it. I told The Lord Jesus if its not your will then block all avenues and prevent this fan club from starting. The Lord Jesus just open all avenues from reaching the actress Manager to getting her approval to start the fan club.

Pastor Dexter in 1 of the service mentioned God s judgement upon Indonesia Malaysia and India. I was sitting there in the service I then recalled the word - pray for India. That was a confirmation. The aims of the fan club are to pray for the salvation of Aishwarya Rai - we want The Lord Jesus to save her as she is famous and influential The Lord Jesus can use her to win over the people of India to The Lord. Her manager s salvation. The salvation of others and to direct people to The Lord Jesus. We have to do it discreetly. The actress and her manager Simone Sheffield approved the fan club and call us a quality fan club. On 26th Nov 2005 the fan club was born. We have 4 members for a start. Joanne Tay is one of the pioneer member of the fan club Mohan s sister Anuratha my buddy Fenella Tang and I were the 1st 4 members of the fan club.

To date we have 9 members - 7 Christians out of the 9 members - 5 Chinese 2 Peranakans 1 Indian and 1 Malay. 3/4 of the members are professionals in their professions - age range from 31 to 54 yrs old. The fan club members have been praying for Mohan s salvation Mohan s sister s salvation too as Joanne is a valued member of the fan club. The Lord has answered our prayers too for Mohan.

My buddy having gone through a huge financial crisis for the past 2 years - The Lord has finally answered our prayers for her. She is debt free and has drawn closer to The Lord. The Lord has bless her son with an aggregate score of 251 in the PSLE and The Lord bless him with the school of his choice - ACS Independent Sch. One of the souvenir for the members in the fan club is the book - The Purpose Driven Life by Rick Warren. The fan club members are featured in the 1st Indian Lifestyle Magazine in April and in Singapore s New Paper on 21 Dec 2007.

These are all the blessings of The Lord Jesus to the members of the fan club. The Lord s hand has been upon the fan club. We are expecting The Lord to do greater miracles in the year 2008.

From Charmaine Ho..

I'm not exactly sure how this 10 thousand blessings thing works but I hope that this may be a blessing to anyone who reads. Since I prefer to write in down rather than say it out, so there goes.

This year has been an extremely eventful year for me, with both ups and downs.

Firstly,2007 started very well considering i have completed my A levels (which means i didn't have to study for at least 5 months). So I had a lot of time on my hands to doing everything else except study. During these few months, a lot of my friends were all looking for jobs to earn some money but me, being lazy, just stayed at home and watched lots of shows. But God had other plans. For some reason, jobs came knocking at my door, people i knew, like Aunty Lee Hong, knew that i was free and started recommending jobs to me. I really want to thank God for giving me the opportunity to go out and work and learn how it is like and, of course, to earn some money.

Secondly, I want to thank God for teaching me to trust in him even when everything seems impossible. As some of you may know, i did not do well for my A levels and i was very disappointed with my results because it would be very difficult for me to get into any course that i wanted in the 3 main local universities. Besides, as some of you may know, I did an extra year of JC, so i practically wasted 3 years of my life in JC because i cannot go anywhere with my results. But again, God had other plans. I have come to believe that He planned for me to go to a JC so that ultimately i would have to go to Australia to study. Therefore i want to encourage all of you, to continue to trust in God and seek Him, for He has the perfect plan for you just like in Jeremiah 29:11.

Thirdly, I want to thank God and my parents for giving me the opportunity to go to Australia to study. I also want to thank God for helping me in my studies and for blessing me with very good results there. I believe God knows how much each person can handle, so by placing me in a different education system, He knows I will be able to do much better in my studies. Along the same line, I also want to thank God for helping Amelia for finding a church that both of us can go to and grow in and for Amelia for helping me with a lot of things there in Australia.

Lastly, I want to thank the church, especially the YF, for praying for me for the past few years for my A levels and for my university. Please continue to keep in your prayers as I continue to seek for directions as to what I should major in and as I continue my course in the university in Australia.
