I reside in California with my husband, Gerald and our son, Cael.

I grew up with an absent father when I was young. I came to find out later that he had another family in Singapore. Needless to say, my childhood was certainly not a happy one. My mom was always angry and I grew up with much insecurity, feeling ugly and unwanted. I lacked the father’s love which is important to all children.

I accepted Christ into my life when I was 14 years old during a Christmas service at Bethel Church in Melaka. Thus, I began my journey with God. It was not an overnight transformation. It took me years before I understood the full capacity of God's unconditional love for me and the Lord has the best in store for me. I know His work is not complete in me; we are transformed daily as we walk in Him. We are all a piece of work in progress.

I am not exactly sure when my father gave his life to Christ. In fact I think he gave his life to Christ a couple of times before Jesus finally got a hold of him. I think what really sealed the deal were the signs and wonders that he saw.

(Mark 16:15-20 NIV)

He said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation. Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned. And these signs will accompany those who believe: In my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues; they will pick up snakes with their hands; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all; they will place their hands on sick people, and they will get well." After the Lord Jesus had spoken to them, he was taken up into heaven and he sat at the right hand of God. Then the disciples went out and preached everywhere, and the Lord worked with them and confirmed his word by the signs that accompanied it."

I strongly believe that signs and wonders should accompany those who believed. How else can we win over this unbelieving generation? What do we have to offer them if we have no power and authority given through Christ to heal the sick or to cast out demons? Do we think just by sharing words only would be enough for this cyber-aged generation if Jesus Himself had to move in signs and wonders during His time?

Anyways, back to the story. My father had a sinful past. He had two families. God forgave him. Jesus' blood is powerful enough to wash him white as snow. It took me a lot longer to forgive him. As a Christian, I thought I had forgiven him a long time ago, even before he became a Christian. But only God knew the full extent of the human heart. I was filled with anger. Things would come up and I would get angry with my father. God is definitely patient with us. Being bitter and unforgiving is always not the way of Christ. I would try to hold on to the past, what my father failed to do. God began to remind me and told me to let go my anger one at a time. It was a slow process. A sin was a sin whether it is big or small. Unforgiveness is a sin. If God can forgive me, then I can also forgive my father. Jesus’ teaching is simple yet profound. Praise God I am totally set free now of this bondage!

My father made right his past. He cannot undo the wrongs but he can choose to ask God for forgiveness and move on with his life.

(Philippians 3:13, 14 NIV)

"Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus."

My father is not perfect. He has his idiosyncrasies. He is a work in progress like everyone else. But one thing I know because I have seen through his acts, my father loves Jesus and he is walking with Jesus toward the destiny that God has prepared for him. And that is good enough for me.

Pastor’s Footnote:

As a businessman then and an unbeliever, I sowed into the kingdom unknowingly because I just wanted to please my daughter, Julie when she was soliciting fund for her Church in Petaling Jaya.

My elder son George was the 1st to be saved in our family at Bethel Church in Malacca at the age 16 years. Looking back, I believe all the way My saviour is leading him from a very promising banking career and turning his desire to food business. George gave up a high paying job boldly leaving his banking career in Singapore to set up Revenue Valley with his ex classmate as a partner. After over 10 years, I witness the business grown from a humble beginning of two outlets at Sunway Pyramid and Megamall to now 50 outlets world-wide with an annual turnover exceeding RM150 million. Praise God!

Julie plays a very important part in my salvation and George plays a very important part in my ministry life. After I was saved, I sold my 50% stake in a development company which owns a high rise commercial building, George encouraged me to devote my remaining time for the Lord alone and forget about investing further into business, so here I am , a full time minster for God to advance His kingdom. Thank you, Lord for blessing me with such a wonderful son and daughter.

I have written an article on my family life through the link below:-

Dear Pastor Esther,

I would like to thank the Lord for asking you to invite me to CKRM Melaka lunch last Monday; indeed I am truly blessed by the ministry. I have been crying out to God to lead me again because I know I’m lost again. My cry was God surely you have more for me to do with the Spiritual gifts that you have given me. Many times I had these dreams about me being pregnant but I couldn't go into labour to deliver. On Monday night after the ministry, I had the same dream again but this time I already given birth to a child. Halleluiah! I received my breakthrough! My prayer is that I will be able to continue where I’ve stopped. Thank you again for praying for me.

Blessings!

God will make a way for CKRM Melaka

Dear Pastor Esther,

With regards to the vision I received last Monday when our brethrens from CKRM Banting and Petaling Jaya were praying for the ministry of CKRM Melaka saw a beautiful picture of a flower bud. The understanding that I received was that never to under- estimate what God is doing inside of this flower bud. When the appointed time comes, this flower bud will bloom into a beautiful flower. The beauty of this flower is that, it never had to labour for its beauty to appear but its God and His creativity did it! All glory to Him! The ministry of CKRM Melaka will experience it's breakthrough through God. Eventually, look at the flower that's already bloom, it turn-out that there are so many beautiful petals attached to make it beautiful!

Glory to Him alone Who is Almighty!

Blessings,

Ruth Kok

Dear Ps. Paul,

Shalom!

You have been tested amidst great opposition and misunderstanding. The religious and political spirit has tried to come against you to stop you from advancing in the Kingdom, or even to kill the ministry the Lord has given you in its infant stage, but the Lord Sabbath has triumphed over your enemies, and you have emerged stronger than before. Religious men may not be able to understand the way the Lord has anointed you to do His ministry, yet the anointing on your life and ministry is genuinely from the Lord and it bears the authenticity of heaven's signature.

You are already carrying the revival mantle of the Spirit of the Lord, and the Lord has called you to Malacca, which I believe is not only a place where you will just build an auditorium for the incoming revival, but also where you will be the presiding revivalist that the Lord has appointed for this hour and for this work. You will be the set man in charge of the work in Malacca and this responsibility is not to be given to another person, until and unless the Lord has released you from it.

It is a joy to see how the Lord has blessed you with resources to do His ministry, and it is a big ministry which the Lord has prepared you to do over the years, even those years when you were serving other gods in the business world. But the Lord is using the wealth of your business experience, connections and material resources for His Kingdom advancement now. He will use everything that you have offered to Him, your whole life and everything you have been through. He is not finished with you yet, there is a great work awaiting you. Your best days are still ahead of you.

The Lord has also given you a ministry to equip and empower the Body of Christ for the work of ministry. It is a ministry to train men and women of God in the spirit and to impart faith to release the miraculous and the supernatural working of the Holy Spirit. You will be known as a man of God who activates the gifts and callings of His saints.

If there is anyway that we can be of help to you, I think it would be to promote your ministry through writing books, which is what Ps. Joyce has attempted to do when she published her book entitled "More, Lord!", of course this book also speaks of the revival ministry that the Lord has given us. We can also help build your people and ministry through teaching and preaching of the Word, which is one of our strengths. We are not in competition, but the Lord has caused our path to cross so that we can build His Kingdom together. What He requires of us is that we be found faithful in whatever size and portion He has entrusted to us, and then more will be given to us.

May Deuteronomy 33:25 be ever so real to you--"As your days, so shall your strength be." (Deuteronomy 33:25 NKJV)

God bless you in all that you put your hands to do.

Blessings and thanks in Christ,

Ps. Joyce & Joseph

Dear Ps. Paul,

Shalom!

Indeed, spiritually speaking Ps. Esther is an eye and an ear to you in the ministry. The Lord has teamed both of you up for greater effectiveness in His Kingdom work. She is a plus to your ministry work.

Some of these days, when we have the opportunity to travel to Malacca, we will pay you a visit certainly.

Giving God all the glory,

Ps. Joyce

The Testimony of Pastor Joyce Tai / Joyce Tai 牧师的见证
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pastor's Footnote:

Rev Dr Joyce Tai (B.Sc, M.Div, D.Min) author of the book "More Lord!," has been in full time ministry since 1986. She moves powerfully in preaching, teaching, intercessory and prophetic anointing. In her meetings, many have received breakthrough, healing, deliverance, miracles, edification, comfort and exhortation. She is now an associate and intinerant pastor of Fountain of Life Assembly (member of NECF), a prophetic & apostolic Church.

Her husband, Rev Dr Joseph Tai is the President of Wingspread School of Ministry and has served the Lord fulltime since 1984. Besides involving in itinerary teaching and evangelism, he is now shepherding Fountian of Life Assembly. He teaches the Word of God with simplicity and practicality. Evangelistic, healing, deliverance, prophetic, laughing, revival, miracle, signs and wonders anointing flow strongly in his revival meetings. He has ministered in USA, Canada, Mexico, Hong Kong and South East Asia. He has also ministered in Bible College, training centre, camp, conference, evangelistic and revival meetings.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When John heard in prison what Christ was doing, he sent his disciples to ask him, “Are you the one who was to come, or should we expect someone else?” Jesus replied, “Go back and report to John what you hear and see: The blind receive sight, the lame walk, those who have leprosy are cured, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the good news is preached to the poor (Matthew 11:2-5).

When the true gospel is preached under the anointing of the Holy Spirit, the fruit can be seen – people are healed of sickness, those in deep bondages get set free and people are drawn closer to God. CKRM’s website is flooded with testimonies written by people who have been blessed giving glory to God for His awesome work.

Due to the nature of its end times calling, God is doing so many new things that we believers never seen before. This puts CKRM into great concern of the churches and controversies whether CKRM is preaching the true Gospel. (Click the link below).

The 4th Wave is Coming Soon - From the Editor's Desk / 圣灵第四波即将到来-编辑撰文

There were prophets of God who told us that very few could understand the ministries of CKRM as many could not accept the new things (Isaiah 43:19) that God is doing at CKRM. (Click the link below).

The Words released by Prophetess Huang Li Chin to our co-founders – by Elder Janet Fung / 黄丽君先知对我们两位 创办人所释放的话语 – 范丽贞长老序

Rev Dr Henry Chieng himself confessed that natural mind could not understand supernatural and also the many religious leaders too at large unless the Lord reveals this mystery to them by the Holy Spirit.

Rev Liu Tsia Fang, a senior pastor of the Singapore Christian Prayer House was our coverage. She was very critical about the odd ministering pairing of Ps Esther and Ps Paul due to her deep concern over the pairing of an opposite sex. It took five years for her to understand us and to accept that this is the will of God to minister in this manner.

In 2003, the Lord gave a word to Ps Paul Ang that Malacca is God’s chosen place for a revival. In 2004, the Lord gave visions to Ps Paul. One of the visions was a small glorious Church then the next vision of a large Auditorium.

Years later CKRM Christian Centre Singapore was set up in April 2007 after Ps Paul and Ps Esther came back from USA. At Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry, California, the great revivalist Bill Johnson laid both his hands to bless them before the commencement of CKRM. God might have used Bill Johnson to impart the Revival Fire on both of them.

After the 2004 Vision, the Lord led Ps Paul to ARC (Agape Revival Center) California to attend a course. The Lord led Rev Dr Ernest Chan, the President of ARC, USA to set up a leadership training centre in Malacca at the end of August 2007. Dr Ernest Chan’s main concern was the feeder source of students to the new Seminary in Malacca through various Chinese Churches from Singapore and Malaysia. Dr Ernest Chan’s seminary has been relocated from Malacca to Petaling Jaya in the month of December 2011.

During that season with the controversies which arose against the co-founders and the ministries of CKRM, I could truly understand and feel with Dr Ernest Chan that he was left with no choice but to disassociate with CKRM in the middle of 2008.

Now, I understand why the Lord prompted CKRM to expand its ministry to Malacca after the disassociation. CKRM Leadership Training was then set up in Malacca early 2009 and went ahead to expand further north of Malaysia setting up more ministries preparing the ground for the coming revival and to connect people chosen by the Lord to build His house in Malacca.

God given mission is to build a large convention centre (Auditorium) to usher in the revival.

Looking back again, I realised that unless the hand of God is behind the whole scene CKRM would not have proceed this far. Like the Donkey who carried Jesus to Jerusalem at the appointed time, we are just the donkey for Him to use, entrusted with different mission and calling … hence, who could understand the will of God unless they seek the Lord? We are praying that the Lord would send the workers as in Mathew 9:37 Then he said to his disciples, "The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few.”

我们在马六甲的使命

当约翰在监里听见基督所作的事，就打发两个门徒去，问他说：“那将要来的是你么？还是我们等候别人呢？” 耶稣回答说：“你们去，把所听见，所看见的事告诉约翰。就是瞎子看见，瘸子行走，长大疯的洁净，聋子听见，死人复活，穷人有福音传给他们。”（马太福音11:2-5）。

当真正的福音在圣灵的恩膏下宣扬，便能看到圣灵的果子 – 就是病人被医治，深受捆绑的得自由和人被吸引更加亲近神。 CKRM的网站上充满着被全能神祝福的人所写下荣耀主的见证。

由于这末后呼召的性质，上帝所做的许多新事是我们的信徒从未见过的。这使CKRM面临教会极大的关注和争议我们是否在宣扬真正的福音。 （请点击下面的网站）。

The 4th Wave is Coming Soon - From the Editor's Desk / 圣灵第四波即将到来-编辑撰文

多位神的先知也曾告诉我们，很少人能理解CKRM的事工，因许多人无法接受上帝在CKRM所做的新事物（以赛亚书43:19）。 （请点击下面的网站）。

The Words released by Prophetess Huang Li Chin to our co-founders – by Elder Janet Fung / 黄丽君先知对我们两位 创办人所释放的话语 – 范丽贞长老序

詹立言牧师也承认自然界的思绪是无法理解超自然的事。这是许多宗教领袖所面对的问题，

除非主透过圣灵把奥秘启示于人。

新加坡基督徒祷告院的资深牧师，刘再芳牧师，曾经是我们的属灵遮盖。刘牧师开始时也无法接受以斯帖牧师和保罗牧师的男女奇特事工配搭。历时五年，她终能理解和接受这是神的旨意，是神要以这种方式来服事。

2003年，主启示保罗牧师说马六甲是上帝所拣选的复兴之地。在2004年，主给保罗牧师在异象中见到一间充满荣耀的小教会后，接着是一个富丽堂皇的大礼堂。

多年后，新加坡CKRM基督中心在保罗和以斯帖牧师从美国回来后于2007年4月成立。在加州伯特利超自然学院，伟大的复兴家比尔强生以他的双手为两位牧师按受祝福。我们相信上帝也透过比尔强生把复兴的火传递给他们。

领受了2004年的异象后，主带领保罗牧师到加州爱修园参加特会。主之后带领美国爱修园院长，陈忠辉牧师在2007年8月底在马六甲成立了一个领导培训中心。陈牧师的领导培训中心主要学生是来自新马两地的华文教会会友。此领导培训中心在2011年12月已从马六甲搬迁到八打灵再也（Petaling Jaya）。

在那外界对CKRM事工和创办人争议的时期，陈牧师在没有选择的情况下在2008年年中与CKRM划清界限的决定是可以理解。

现在，我明白为什么主在CKRM脱离爱修园的属灵遮盖后，启示把事工扩展到马六甲。 CKRM领袖训练中心于2009年初在马六甲成立后便迅速向北延伸设立更多的事工。目的不只是为即将来临的复兴奠定基础，也意在把神所拣选的人联系在一起共同在马六甲建造神的家。

上帝赋予的使命是为即将来临的大复兴建立一个大型博览中心（大礼堂）。

再回首，我才意识到，除非是上帝的手在背后托着，否则CKRM是不会走到今天这一步。就如那在预定的时间里载着耶稣进入耶路撒冷的驴驹一样，我们也是那被拣选让主使用的驴驹，赋予不一样的使命和呼召。。。因此，除了那寻求神的面的，谁能明白神的旨意？就如马太9：37 主对门徒说所说的 ：“要收的庄稼多，作工的人少”。我们祷告求神打发更多的工人一起来收取祂的庄稼！

What is wickedness to God? It is forsaking God and counting on man’s strength as per Jeremiah 1:16, Psalm 18:21, Jeremiah 17:5-6.

My closest friend whom I knew more than 3 decades was a three generation Christian. Though I was a non-believer then, we went through thick and thin together and I even stood by him and was an instrument God used to help him to get out from a crisis.

He used to share with me the burden and his love for retarded and handicapped children whom he had spent a great deal of time to look after them and the plans he had for them in future. Understand from our close associate in Germany in the 80s that he said when he reaches 40 years, he desires to be a pastor. Instead, he became a social worker and later a well known and recognized politician at the age of 59 years.

He had a hand in my salvation as I knew that he had kept me constantly in his prayer. He was mentoring me when I first became a Christian at the turn of the Millennium and he loved the Lord. However, after the Fire encounter with God (Zechariah 13:9, Matthew 3:11) when I attended a short course at a Chinese Seminary in California 2004 had transformed me from an ordinary Christian to an extreme disciple of our Lord Jesus Christ.

I became on fire for God and enjoyed an intimate relationship with Jesus. Through this intimate relationship and by His grace, my spiritual senses were opened to see and I began to understand things that even many servants of God could not see unless the Lord revealed to them (Luke 24:31-32, 45). As a result, our close friendship began to drift apart.

What happened to this friend then?

In 2006, I desired my close friend to experience the same extreme encounter with God too. It was done out of my love for him. Hence, we made an appointment to meet him. However, our mission was unsuccessful due to our lack of wisdom and experience. For a baby Christian like me to minister to such a senior Adult Christian, it seemed too much a humiliation to him. He cooked up a story to excuse himself and left the fellowship before it even started. From then on, he kept his distance from me.

God gave me a dream of his sin of idolatry and dropped a message in my heart that I should write to him to convey the dream to him. He responded very rudely saying evil and very unpleasant things to me.

• Ezekiel 3:18-19, “When I say to a wicked person, ‘You will surely die,’ and you do not warn them or speak out to dissuade them from their evil ways in order to save their life, that wicked person will die for[b] their sin, and I will hold you accountable for their blood. 19 But if you do warn the wicked person and they do not turn from their wickedness or from their evil ways, they will die for their sin; but you will have saved yourself.”

I did not give up on him and made many attempts to contact him vide email, SMS, phone or even asking a close friend of him to arrange for a fellowship. This was despite that he made a phone call to me and he told me to maintain our relationship on a ‘status quo’ basis which carried the meaning of ‘strictly no contact and no talk’ basis.

• John 12:39-40, Jesus says, “For this reason they could not believe, because, as Isaiah says elsewhere: “He has blinded their eyes and deadened their hearts, so that they can either see with their eyes, nor understand with their hearts, not turn – and I would heal them" (Also read Matthew 13:14-15).

This is His promise that if we know our sin and repent, He will heal us. In our ministry, God has used us as instruments to heal and to set many Christians free from sicknesses and bondages after they are led to a stage of repentance.

• Ecclesiastes 5:4-6, “When you make a vow to God, do not delay to fulfil it. He has no pleasure in fools; fulfil your vow. 5 It is better not to make a vow than to make one and not fulfil it. 6 Do not let your mouth lead you into sin. And do not protest to the temple messenger, “My vow was a mistake.” Why should God be angry at what you say and destroy the work of your hands?

Despite being a very fit person, he was diagnosed with cancer and it finally took his life last month. The above scripture has to be taken seriously by all of us. We must be very cautious and considerate in all our approaches and addresses to God (Ecclesiastes 5:2): Be not rash with thy mouth, in making prayers, or protestations, or promises; let not thy heart be hasty to utter anything before God.

追念一位已故亲密好友

对上帝而言，什么是邪恶？就是离弃上帝，只靠人自己的能力，正如耶利米书1:16，诗篇18:21和耶利米书17:5-6所说的。

我认识超过三十年的亲密好友，是一位第三代的基督徒。在我还是个非信徒时，我们一起经历了生活上的风风雨雨，且同舟共济。我相信，神在那时已使用我这器皿，来帮助他度过一场危机。

他时常与我分享他对智障和残疾儿童的负担和爱心，不但花了许多时间来照顾他们，并为他们计划将来。八十年代，我从我们在德国的一位密切联系得知，他说过在四十岁时要当一位牧师。相反的，他却成了一名社工，最后在59岁的时候，成为一个众所周知和公认的政治家。

我知道他在我的救恩上有份，因他一直不断地为我的救赎而神祈祷。他非常的爱主。在我刚信主时，他也不断给于我指导。然而，在2004年我参加了加利福尼亚州的一个中文短期课程，经历过神的圣火（撒迦利亚书13:9，马太福音3:11）后，我从一个普通的基督信徒变成一个很积极的基督门徒。

我对神充满着的火热，并享受与主耶稣亲密的关系。透过这种亲密的关系和靠着祂的恩典，我属灵的感官被打开，得以看到和开始明白许多除非主现露给他仆人知道，否则是无法明白的事情（路加福音24:31-32，45）。从此，我们亲密的友谊也开始渐渐的疏远了。

过后，这位朋友发生了什么事呢？

在2006年，因着对他的关爱，我希望我这位亲密的朋友也能体验到与神同在的最亲密关系。因此，我们相约见面。不过，这次的相约却不能成功地完成使命，主要的原因是我们缺乏智慧和经验。对于一个像我如婴儿这般的基督徒去服事一位信主多年的基督徒，对他似乎是一种屈辱。他找了个借口，在团契还没开始之前便离开。从此之后，他便与我保持距离。

之后, 上帝给了我一个梦， 就是他有崇拜偶像的罪。同时也赐下话语要我向他转达这个梦。但是他很粗暴地回应我，并对我说了一些邪恶和非常不礼貌的话。

• “我何时指着恶人说，他必要死。你若戒他，也不劝戒他，使他离开恶行，拯救他的性命，这恶人必死在罪孽之中。我却要向你讨他丧命的罪（原文作血）。倘若你警戒恶人，他仍不转离罪恶，也不离开恶行，他必死在罪孽之中，你却救自己脱离了罪。”（以西结书3:18-19）

尽管他曾打电话告诉我要和我保持距离和维持断绝联系的状态；我还是没有放弃他，多次试图用电子邮件，短讯，电话，与他联络，甚至要求他亲密的朋友安排会面，但都不得要领。

 “他们所以不能信，因为以赛亚又说，主叫他们瞎了眼，硬了心，免得他们眼睛看见，心里明白，回转过来，我就医治他们。”（约翰福音12:39-40）

这是祂的诺言。如果我们知道我们的罪孽而要悔改，祂会医治我们。在我们的事工里，神使用了我们作为医治的工具，带领他们忏悔，并誏许多生病和被捆绑的基督徒得以释放。

 “你向神许愿，偿还不可迟延。因他不喜悦愚昧人。所以你许的愿应当偿还。你许愿不还，不如不许。不可任你的口使肉体犯罪。也不可在祭司（原文作使者）面前说是错许了。为何使神因你的声音发怒，败坏你手所作的呢？”（传道书5:4-6）

尽管他是一位非常健康的人，却被诊断出患有癌症，终在上个月病逝。我们对以上的经文应当采取认真的态度。我们必须非常小心谨慎，特别是我们临近神和向神所说过的话。“你在神面前不可冒失开口，也不可心急发言。”（传道书5:2）

The year of 2011 ended with 3 significant evenings in CKRM, hosted by Rev Liu Tsia Fang, the senior pastor of Singapore Christian Prayer House.

She preached on the End times message on 29 - 30/12/11, followed by a watch-night prayer meeting on 31/12/2011 to usher in the new year, 2012.

She was assisted by two much anointed sisters from Taiwan and they are 1st time visitors to CKRM Singapore.

One of them, Pastor Huang Li Chin, who is a prophetess and graduated from Agape Renewal Center (ARC) has a natural gift of a seer even at a very young age and could see into the Spiritual Realm of a person. Rev Liu Tsia Fang invited her and another co-worker from Taiwan. Pastor Huang released the prophetic word to Pastor Paul Ang , Pastor Esther and many of us in the congregation.

She released the following word to our co-founder, Pastor Paul Ang when she prayed for him:-

"You are God's precious son.
He will lead you to walk, your walk is not based on Earthly Way but you walk on the Heavenly Way.
In addition, He will lead you personally to work.
Because of your legs, He will personally lead you to walk step by step. He is leading you to walk.
The Lord will increasingly exalt you and He'll lift you up.
Thank you Jesus"

Through Ps Huang, the Lord called Pastor Paul, His precious son. Hallelujah!
As co-heir with Jesus Christ, Pastor Paul is God's precious son.
The given authority of son-ship is as in John 5:19 that the son only do what the Father is doing & Father God is well pleased.

Romans 8: 29 "For whom He foreknew, He also predestined to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among all brethren."

Prophetess Huang Li Chin confirmed that Pastor Paul is walking in The Heavenly Way.

Psalm 32:8

Praise the Lord!

The Lord personally leading Pastor Paul all the way.

He'll strengthen his legs as in 2 Sam 22:34 & Psalm 18:33

Father God affirmed that He exalts His humble servant.

James 4:10
Luke 18:14b
Joshua 3: 7

(Prophet John Temple has delivered a word to Ps Paul Ang recently that very few could understand and accept the ministry that God has called him but don't give up. John Temple also gave a word to Ps Esther Yap that the Lord put her to co-partner and minister with Ps Paul Ang so that Ps Paul can complete the work that God has assigned and ordained him to do. Bishop Joseph Akintunde has only given him a word that people who have misunderstood Ps Paul Ang would eventually be able to see the light in Ps Paul).

Ps Huang released the following to Pastor Esther Yap, a co-founder and ministering partner of Ps Paul Ang.

"God says you're a good co-labourer & helper.
I see the two of you and in between is a rope.
You two, each are holding one end of the rope.
The Lord personally lifts up the middle of the rope. (a triangle formation like the Holy Trinity )
Be strong & courageous, be stronger & more courageous.
God will exalt you.
You & Pastor Paul are on level ground. ( Isa 45:2)
God will personally lead you to run the race.
You have to be bold in proclaiming the work of the Kingdom of God, because the Lord has also put this burden in you. The Lord will add more to you and exalt you to a higher level."

These prophetic words -

• confirming the supernatural ministry of CKRM set up by Father God - partnership between Pastor Esther & Pastor Paul, Father God Himself uphold this ministry with His almighty hand, He's El Shaddai

• the prophecy confirmed that Father God had answered His Son, Jesus' prayer for Believers ( John 17:20-26 )

• Obviously things that are not seen or heard upsets many people - but God choose to bless His sons & daughters who loves him with things that eye have not seen nor ear heard ( 1 Cor 2:9) GOD ONLY PREPARED these things FOR THOSE WHO LOVED HIM

In CKRM, the ministry is ONE in the Spirit & ONE in the LORD, as the Father, Son & Holy is ONE

Who can grasp His infinite splendour and fathom the depth of His love?

Elder Janet Fung

(Evangelist Reinhard Bonnke - Official Page: "This world has false standards, false values, false gods, and false heroes. Its honor is a wreath of fading fame. True greatness is not bigness or spiritual prominence. It is doing the will of God).

黄丽君先知对我们两位 创办人所释放的话语 – 范丽贞长老序

2011 年以新加坡基督徒祷告院(望天楼)的主任牧师，刘再芳所带领的三个显著的聚会进入尾声。

刘牧师在二零一一年十二月二十九与三十日分享了有关末后主再来的信息后，在三十一日以通宵跨年祷告会迎进了新的二零一二年。

她也邀请了两位来自台湾，非常有恩膏的姐妹一起出席聚会。这是她们第一次拜访新加坡CKRM。

其中之一的黄丽君传道，是一位先知，毕业于爱修园。她年幼时神就赐给她先见的天赋，不但有看异象的恩赐，还能洞察属灵领域的事。黄牧师当晚对保罗牧师、以斯帖牧师和当中的弟兄姐妹们释放许多预言。

以下是她对保罗牧师所发的预言：

“你是神的宝贝儿子，祂会带领你前进，带领你走。你走的不是地上的路，而是天上的路。祂会亲自带领你做工，因为你的脚是祂亲自带着你走。所以你不是自己走，是祂一步一步的带领你走。神会更多的提升你。感谢主！”

透过黄传道，主说保罗牧师是神的宝贝儿子。哈利路亚！

与耶稣基督同为后嗣，保罗牧师是神的宝贝儿子。

神所赐与身为儿子的权柄，就如约翰福音五章十九节里说道的惟有看见父所做的，子才能做。天父非常喜悦。

罗马书八章二十九节“因为祂预先所知道的人，就预先定下效法祂儿子的模样，使祂儿子在许多弟兄中作长子。”

先知黄丽君牧师的预言再次印证保罗牧师走的是天上的路（运行在属灵的领域）。

诗篇32:8 - 赞美主！主亲自带领保罗牧师前面的道路，祂加添他双脚的力量如撒下22:34和诗篇18:33。

天父再次肯定和提升祂谦卑的仆人。（雅各4:10； 路加18:14b； 约书亚3:7）

John Temple 先知在较早前也对保罗牧师发预言说很少人能够明白且愿意接受神所托付于保罗牧师的事工，但不要放弃。John Temple 先知也对以斯帖牧师说，是神把她放在保罗牧师的身边，要她和保罗牧师一起配搭和服事好叫保罗牧师能完成神所交托和按立他去做的事。主教Joseph Akintunde 对保罗牧师发的预言说那些误会保罗牧师的人，往后的日子里将会从他身上看见光。

黄牧师对保罗牧师的服事伙伴和 CKRM 的联合创办人，以斯帖牧师发了以下的预言：

“神说你是个好同工、好帮手。我看到你们俩人之间有一条绳子。这条绳子是牵着你们，但是中间有耶稣自己亲自在拉着这条绳，牵着你们走。刚强壮胆、更多的刚强壮胆，神会更多的提升你。你跟保罗牧师俩人各站在天平的两头，是平行的。神会带领你一起奔跑这条天路。你要放胆述说神国度的事，因为神把这样的负担也放在你里面。会更多的加添给你，提升你。

这预言应征了-

• CKRM 超自然事工，保罗牧师和以斯帖牧师的配搭是父神自己所按立的。父神亲自以祂大能的手托住这事工，祂是全能神！

• 天父应允了主耶稣为信徒在约翰福音17:20-26 里的祷告。

• 的确，眼未曾见耳未曾听的事使人困扰。神却选择祝福那些爱祂和喜好那些眼未曾见耳未曾听的事的儿女。（林前2:9）甚至为那些爱祂的预备了这些事。

CKRM的事工乃属一灵、一主，因父、子、圣灵本为一。

谁能抓住祂无限的辉煌和捉摸祂爱的长阔高深呢？

范丽贞长老

（布道家布永康牧师的网站如此写道：“这个世界上有假标准，假价值观，假神，和虚假的英雄。他的荣誉是褪色的名气。真正的伟大并不是体积的庞大或是属灵的卓越地位，而是遵从神的旨意”）

Dear Readers,

Shalom & Season greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ!

Recalling the morning when CKRM Petaling Jaya commenced the Sunday morning service last year, the ray from Heaven shone upon Ara Damasara at Petaling Jaya, Selangor gloriously. It is a place where several Churches/Ministries are located. The latest to join the rank will be Agape Leadership Malaysia which will be relocated from Malacca to Ara Jaya, a 15 minute’s walk from CKRM Petaling Jaya. Praise God!

“It is God who direct the lives of his creatures; everyone’s life is in his power” (Job 12:10 GNT). Everything is made perfect in His time. Saul went to search for the donkeys which his father, Kish lost and Saul then walked into his destiny to become the king of Israel (1 Samuel 9). Hence, it took five years before the Lord could reveal that the vision I saw in 2004. This vision is for CKRM to fulfil. The Lord took another two years before He prompted that it was now the time to go ahead with the project (through the link below), a total waiting period of 7 years.

“Unless the Lord builds the house, its builders labour in vain …” (Psalm 127:1) / “若 不 是 耶 和 华 建 造 房 屋，建 造 的 人 就 枉 然 劳 力 ......”(诗 篇127:1)

Some of the greatest achievements of man have come from the outcast and the greatly misunderstood which includes a man of faith like Noah who was mocked for building an Ark (boat) in the middle of a dry land with no history of the place being flooded. In 1 Samuel 2:30 the Lord declares, “… Those who honour me I will honour, but those who despise me will be disdained.” Our co-worker in Northern China brought her friend from Beijing to attend the 8th Joshua Camp. The friend asked the Lord what to expect at the Camp. The Lord spoke nothing and gave her a vision of a donkey … read the testimony through the link below to understand the meaning of the donkey.

The Donkey -Testimony from Dr Sarah Shan / 负重的驴驹——Sarah Shan 姐妹的见证

The ‘donkey story’ did not end at the testimony. One of the participants of the recent Five Fold Ministers’ Retreat who took a photo of the Twin Towers in Kuala Lumpur saw a cloud formation of a donkey.

In his 1947 prophecy, the great healing evangelist Smith Wigglesworth said a movement was coming in which the Word and the Spirit would be combined resulting in what Stibbe describes as “the greatest movement of God’s Spirit ever witnessed in Church history.” In this move, God will display His might through his servants who are obedient and willing to be used as His vessel or a donkey.

The 4th Wave is Coming Soon - From the Editor's Desk / 圣灵第四波即将到来-编辑撰文

All our abilities come from God. “God has given each one of us the ability to do certain things well” (Romans 12:6 NLT). “Whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God” (1 Corinthians 10:31 NIV). God has led three persons of talent to be included on the Advisably Board of CKRM Leadership Training (SEA) Sdn Bhd preparing the way for development of a large convention centre (Auditorium) with a comprehensive in-housing facilities. Thus this marks commencement of School of Supernatural Ministry ushering in the revival for the region. The three persons are:-

1. Bro Gabriel Eng Song Huat, B.Sc, MBA (Hull), MBIM, MMIM. Bro Gabriel Eng was my partner in the development of the ‘Legenda Condo’ project in 90s.

2. Pastor O.K. Thian, JP is an Architect by profession. He is now the Architect for the convention centre project. He was the Architect for the following projects:-

Stadium Negara – 1983,
Full Gospel Assembly Prayer Mountain, Genting Highlands – 1993,
Education Block of Holy Light Church, Johor Bahru – 1965,
Glad Tidings Church, Petaling Jaya – 1984.

3. Rev Dr Henry Chieng Lik Ngiong. Dr Chieng was a Methodist Pastor for about 25 years. Prior to joining Agape Leadership Malaysia as a Dean, he was a Superintendent overseeing 20 Methodist Churches in Sarawak. I met Dr Chieng when both of us attended courses in a Chinese Seminary in California 2004. He has a fast growing Church in Miri, Sarawak.

To reinforce the School of Supernatural Ministry further, the Lord has led Bishop Dr Joseph Akintunde to be our Spiritual Mentor. He is the author of the book, "Realm of the Spirit" and is the President and founder of The Weight of His Glory International Ministries. An ordained Evangelist and Teacher of the Word of God, the Lord has mightily used him in bringing salvation, healing, deliverance and restoration of peace and joy to the body of Christ. He is an anointed conference speaker with an apostolic unction and he conducts specialized outreach seminar and conferences in the USA, Europe and Asia.

Wishing you and your family a Blessed Christmas and a Joyful New Year. I dedicate two beautiful songs through the link below to all of you during this wonderful time of the year :-

Emmanuel,

Ps Paul Ang

Before we went to Malaysia, Dorcas and I often prayed together for the trip. God gave us a lot of words and dreams. In one of the dreams, Dorcas saw a huge barrel of high quality oil and she was saying “This is the oil I wanted; clean and pure.” When she shared with me about this dream I told her that oil is the anointing of God and CKRM has such kind of oil. True enough, during the 8th Joshua Camp at CKRM she received a lot of grace and anointing from our Lord.

When we prayed on the plane while flying to Kuala Lumpur, God did not say anything to us but gave Dorcas a vision- which was only a donkey and nothing else. We didn’t understand the meaning of this vision until the first day of the camp.

Ps Paul was sharing with the campers why he chose to be a donkey for Jesus. He shared a testimony given by a man of God who wrote: “Our beloved Jesus went to Jerusalem riding on a donkey. The people took off their clothes and spread them on the road. It was the donkey who walked on the clothes, not Jesus. The donkey was honoured because he carried Jesus. I am like that donkey. People honour me not for my sake but because I preach Christ.”

In 1 Samuel 2:30 the Lord declares, “… Those who honor me I will honor, but those who despise me will be disdained.”

Nebuchadnezzar praised the Most High: “I honored and glorified Him who lives forever.” Then his sanity was restored, his honor and splendor were returned for the glory of his kingdom (Daniel 4:34-36).

When Pastor Paul mentioned donkey in his teaching session, I smiled and said to Dorcas. “Don’t you think that this is the donkey you saw in your vision?”

Today when I read an article from BOB JONES, I was surprised to find that there is also a vision of the donkey in his article. The Lord prompted me to link the donkey with CKRM.

God raised CKRM’s ministry to equip and empower the saints of this generation for the coming end time where the darkness and evil forces will increase greatly on the earth. But in this season, many people could not understand such ministry. Only those who know God’s will and are sensitive to the leading of Holy Spirit will recognize God's work.
-------------------------------------
Excerpt from Bob Jone’ vision:

（http://bobjonesnew.unionactive.com/Docs/Shepherd's%20Rods/SR-2008.htm）

“The Burden Bearers

In the next vision Bob saw a donkey that was loaded with supernatural provision essential for this interval of God's Spirit. Interestingly, though the little donkey was loaded with cargo, many people were mocking his appearance. We much remember, it was a lowly donkey that brought the Savior of the world in Jerusalem at the appointed time.

This will be a dangerous time to mock at the vessels God has chosen to bear His Glory, because they will be carrying all that we need to survive in this generation. Many religious leaders of the day had a difficult time comprehending John the Baptist because of his appearance and style. Nevertheless, he was God's messenger providing the essential direction for that season. We cannot afford to not recognize the day of His visitation and miss the tremendous opportunity set before us.

It was John’s directive to prepare a people for the Lord’s coming and restore the inheritance of God's children. The Lord said the spirit and power of Elijah is given to restore all things and turn the hearts of this generation back to God.

This analogy clearly identifies the symbolic nature of the donkey shown in the visions. It is a symbolization of humility and utter dependence upon God demonstrated by those who are trusted with spiritual empowerment. Furthermore, we must develop keen spiritual discernment to recognize their true value and the importance of the provision they carry."
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pastor' Footnote: Some of the greatest achievements of men have come from the outcast and the greatly misunderstood. The disciples of Jesus who were the unschooled, ordinary men (Acts 4:13) courageously went to storm and change the world preaching the gospel under the anointing of the Holy Spirit.

负重的驴驹——Sarah Shan 姐妹的见证

在多加姐妹和我预备等候参加第八届约书亚营的日子，我们经常一起祷告，神也给了很多话语和异梦。在多加的一个梦中，她看到大桶的油，并且在梦中说，她要的就是这种油，纯净的油。她跟我分享这个梦的时候，我告诉她油就是恩膏，CKRM就是有这种油的地方。果然，在营会中，她满满地得到了神的恩典和恩膏。

在来吉隆坡的路上，我们在飞机上祷告的时候，神没有对我们说什么，但给了多加一个异像，她看到一个驴。除此什么都没有。我们不明白什么意思。直到在营会第一天 。

保罗牧师向会众分享了为什么他选择做主耶稣的驴驹。他引用了一位神仆人所写的：“我们亲爱的主骑着驴驹进入耶路撒冷。人们脱下衣服铺在地上。是驴驹踩在衣服上而不是耶稣。驴子受此尊荣是因为它驼着耶稣。我就像那头驴，人们尊敬我不是为我的缘故，是因为我在传讲基督。”撒母尔记上2:30主说，“…尊重我的，我必重看他。藐视我的，他必被轻视。”

尼布甲尼撒称颂至高者说：“我便称颂至高者，赞美尊敬活到永远的神。” 他的聪明和荣耀都复归于他。(但以理书4:34-36).

当保罗牧师的分享中讲到了驴时，我笑着对多加说，这就是你在异像中看到的驴吧?

今天我阅读美国先知BOB JONES的文章，惊奇的发现里面也有一段关于驴的异像，我马上想到了CKRM。

神兴起CKRM事工是为了装备这世代的圣徒应对将来到的末后季节，就是那黑暗及邪恶势力前所未有地倾倒在全地的时候。但在这预备的季节，很多人不理解这样的事工，对之嘲笑否定。只有认识神的心意并对圣灵带领敏锐的人，才能认出出于神的事工。

-------------------------------------

附BOB JONES文章摘录：

（http://bobjonesnew.unionactive.com/Docs/Shepherd's%20Rods/SR-2008.htm）

“负重者

在下一个异像中，Bob看到一头驴驮着超自然的供应品，这些供应是神的灵间息期所必须的。有趣的是，尽管小驴子满载着货物，很多人却嘲笑它的样子。我们都记得圣经中是一头驴驹驮着这世界的救主进入了耶路撒冷。

在此时嘲笑神所拣选来承载祂荣耀的器皿是很危险的，因为他们携带着这世代存活下去的必需品。很多宗教领袖很难理解施洗约翰的外表和方式。然而，他却是神的使者，指明那个季节的必需方向。如果我们不能认出造访时间，以致错过了摆在我们面前的巨大机会，我们是无法承担其损失的。

约翰的目的是为了主的到来和复兴神的儿女预备百姓。主说要赐下以利亚的灵和能力来复兴万事，使这世代的心回转向神。

这个异像中的比喻清楚地刻画出驴子的象征性品质。象征着被神托付属灵能力的人所具有的谦卑、完全依靠神的品格。而且，我们必须培养敏锐的灵来识别出他们这种真价值以及他们所携带供应品的重要性。“

Having hosted the Five Fold Ministers’ Retreat at our newly renovated Canaan Penthouse Conference Hall for the morning session of the ‘Prayer for Malacca’ on 1st December 2011 with pastors and ministry leaders from several countries, this is my brief sharing of my encounter with God have touched the hearts of some participants.

The Lord has revealed to us that it is time now to proceed with building a large convention centre (Auditorium) with a seating capacity for 5000 people and has also identified His chosen location for the project. The project will include a multi-storey block of service apartments and other facilities in a prime location. It is such a privilege and honour the Lord has given my development, now ministering partner Bro Gabriel Eng and I the task to do something great for Him. Ps O.K.Thian who is the advisor for CKRM Leadership Training Malaysia is the Architect for the project.

Ps Thian was also the Architect for the following projects:-

Stadium Negara – 1983
Full Gospel Assembly Prayer Mountain, Genting Highlands – 1993
Education Block of Holy Light Church, Johor Bahru – 1965
Glad Tidings Church, Petaling Jaya - 1984

Attempt something so great for God, it is doomed to fail unless God be in it as per Psalm 127:1, “Unless the Lord builds the house, its builders labour in vain.”

Hence, I would like to share this testimony to give glory to God on how a man full of passion for business and the things of the world could suddenly lost all desires and give up everything to serve the Lord, learning to work with Him under His leading, guidance and protection despite being a young Christian of faith without any formal Theological training. An encounter with Lord Jesus will definitely transform life. Apostle Paul was a great sinner and the worst sinner of all persecuting and killing the disciples of Jesus. The Damascus Road Encounter changed him to a man who was full of zeal and love for Jesus. With this unceasing love he defended the gospel to his last dying days and willing to endure all kind of difficulties without the fear of men but only to obey God.

My encounter with the Lord was in California 2004 when the fire of God struck me like a lightning that swept throughout my entire body. My life was transformed. The fire burns away all the dross of my life and draws me to the first love – Lord Jesus (Zechariah 13:9, Matthew 3:11, Luke 3:16). The love for the Lord eliminates all the fear of men. After that fire encounter, the Lord began to isolate me as He closed all doors of contact with my past friends, cell group members and later even with my mentors in order to put me in the potter’s house to reshape the clay in His hand. It was during this time I was left to focus on Him alone, learning to work with Him as He taught me many things like He isolated and taught Apostle Paul in Arabia for 3 years.

I learn from a great revivalist, Bill Johnson of the Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry, California and the Bible, never to compromise with men out of fear and I witness and experience how true this is and I see the ministry of God grows without any lack of provisions, resources and funds. Ps Esther and I were being blessed by Bill Johnson in his supernatural school in Redding, California in 2007. We came back to set up CKRM Singapore.

Through these few years of ministry life, I identify myself with the two disciples of Jesus, Peter and John. Peter and John told the religious authority in Acts 4:19-20, “Judge for yourselves whether it is right in God’s sight to obey you rather than God. For we cannot help speaking about what we have seen and heard.” And their ministries brought in great salvation.

Peter and John did not submit to the religious authority but they chose to obey God, so neither was Daniel when he did not submit to the King’s decree but rather he chose being put into the Lion’s den.

Bill Johnson quote: "Nebuchadnezzar made a golden image that stood 90 feet high. All in his kingdom were to worhsip this thing. But the Hebrew children would not. There is a distinction between submission and obedience. Sometimes we are to go against the command of our leaders - but even then, only with submissive hearts."

I also learn how King Saul lost his calling because of his fear of men. King Saul was fearful of his men and he did not wait for Samuel to come and offer the burnt sacrifice. As a result, his kingdom could not endure as in 1 Samuel 13:13-14, “You have done a foolish thing,” Samuel said. “You have not kept the command the LORD your God gave you; if you had, he would have established your kingdom over Israel for all time. But now your kingdom will not endure; the LORD has sought out a man after his own heart and appointed him ruler of his people, because you have not kept the LORD’s command.”

The great Evangelist Reinhard Bonnke quote: "True greatness is not bigness or spiritual prominence. It is doing the will of God."

The article through the link below will provide some understanding of my calling:-

The "Fire Anointing" and It's Purpose / 圣火的恩膏及其目的

Being set apart and consecrated for His use, I have become obedient to His voice. Rev Dr Henry Chieng, a Methodist Pastor for more than 25 years and overseeing about 20 Churches as a Superintendent was my college mate in a Chinese Seminary in California. He testified about my absolute uncompromised obedience in an article through this link: http://www.ckrm.org/?p=566

Anyone whom the Lord has ordained and commissioned for a fire ministry has in fact a very controversial ministry where only a few could understand unless they have a similar encounter with the Lord too. My testimony has blessed and encouraged many Christians. Many testified through our website http://www.ckrm.org/ how they witnessed the awesome move of God in our ministry and have been blessed. Praise God!

I share two of their testimonies posted through the link below:-

http://www.ckrm.org/?p=2433 (by Rev Dr Joyce Tai, co-founder of a Seminary School)

http://www.ckrm.org/?p=546 (By Pastor Isaac of a Church in Irvin, California)

The Lord gave me a choice when my life was in a mess, saying that if I am willing to be consecrated and set apart for Him, leaving everything behind and carry the cross and walk with Him, He will make everything perfect in my life. Now, I can witness how true and faithful He is.

All my four children are very close and very supportive of my ministry. Our relationship today is so close compared with my sinful past. My three sons have graduated from Australia. My daughter is in USA, married a very devoted Christian. Elder son, George left his banking career to set up a food business. The business commenced in 2002 and expanded to several countries. I have posted an article about his business vide

All Glory to our Lord Jesus Christ!

Thank you, Jesus, my Lord and my Saviour. Hallelujah! Amen!

与主耶稣相遇，生命必得着更新

2011年12月1日的上午，来自数个不同国家的牧师和执事领袖借用了我们在马六甲新装修的迦南园顶层会议厅，主办了一个五重执事退修会。一大清早，牧师和执事领袖们就齐集一堂为着马六甲的复兴来祈祷。以下是我在聚会中的简短分享。我这与神相遇的见证触摸了好些参加聚会的牧师和执事领袖们的心。

主已启示我们，现在正是时候进行一个可容纳五千人聚会的大型会议中心（大礼堂）的建设工程，同时神也确定了祂所选择的建筑位置。该项目将包括一个在地理位置优越，多层服务的公寓，以及其他主要的设施。感谢主的恩典，我和我的发展与服事伙伴Eng弟兄能有这么一个机会为主做大事是何等的耀幸。Thian 牧师是马来西亚CKRM领袖训练的顾问，也是这项目的工程师。

Thian牧师也是下列项目的工程师： -

马来西亚国家体育场 - 1983年

全备福音大会祷告山，云顶高原 - 1993年

圣光教会的教育室，柔佛 - 1965年

报喜教堂，八打灵再也 - 1984年

若无上帝的同在，想要完成这么大的圣工是难以成功的。有如诗篇127:1，“若不是耶和华建造房屋，建造的人就枉然劳力。”

因此，我想分享这个见证来荣耀上帝，就是一个对企业和世事充满热忱的人，如何能够在一瞬间突然失去所有的欲望和放弃一切来事奉主。尽管没有受过任何正式神学训练的一位刚信主不久的基督徒，却在祂的带领，指导和保护下，学习与祂一起工作。与主耶稣相遇，生命肯定会被更新。使徒保罗原是一个迫害和杀害耶稣门徒的大罪人。可是在大马士革路上的遭遇，却改变了他一生，成为一个充满热诚和敬爱耶稣的人。有了这永恒的爱，他愿意忍受各种的困苦，捍卫福音直到死的那天。从来没向人的势力低头，为了只是服从上帝。

2004年在加利福尼亚州，主与我相遇。当时上帝之圣火如闪电般击中我整个身体，就此我的生命完全改变。这圣火烧去了我生命中的老我，并引领我寻着至爱 -- 主耶稣（撒迦利亚书13:9，路加福音3:16，马太福音3:11）。主的爱，能够消除人所有的恐惧。经历过主的圣火后，主开始把我分别为圣，停止我与过去的朋友，细胞小组的成员，甚至我的导师们所有的联系。主在陶匠的家中，用祂的手重新塑造我。就在那个时候，我学习如到何留心独自地专注于祂，学习与祂一起同工。主也在这段时间教会了我许多东西，就如在阿拉伯，祂亲自地教导使徒保罗三年一样。

比尔强生是加利福尼亚州伯特利超自然圣经学校的资深牧师。我从这位伟大的复兴家和圣经上，学习到永不要因为惧怕人而妥协。我见证和经历了神的信实。神事工上的增长，无论供应，资源和资金都完全没有任何缺乏。2007年，比尔强生牧师在加利福尼亚州的超自然学校为我和以斯帖牧师按手祝福后回国，我们便成立了新加坡CKRM。

经过数年的事奉生涯，我效法了耶稣的两个门徒，彼得和约翰。彼得和约翰在使徒行传4:19-20告诉宗教领袖说，“听从你们，不听从神，这在神面前合理不合理，你们自己酌量吧。我们所看见所听见的，不能不说。” 他们的事奉带来了极大的救恩。

彼得和约翰从不向宗教领袖低头，并单单选择了服从上帝。即使是但以里，情愿选择被送进狮子坑里，也不妥协于国王的命令。

比尔强生说：“尼布甲尼撒王建造一座九十英尺高的黄金偶像，命令全国人民来崇拜，但是希伯来人的孩子却不这么做。这就是服从和顺服之间的区别。有时我们违背了我们领导人的命令，即使如此，也只有顺从的心。”

我也从扫罗王如何因着惧怕人而失去神的呼召里学到功课。扫罗王惧怕他的手下，没有等到撒母耳来，就独自献上燔祭。因此，正如在撒母耳记13:13-14所记载的他的王位必不长久。撒母耳对扫罗说，“你作了糊涂事了，没有遵守耶和华你神所吩咐你的命令。若遵守，耶和华必在以色列中坚立你的王位，直到永远。现在你的王位必不长久。耶和华已经寻着一个合他心意的人，立他作百姓的君，因为你没有遵守耶和华所吩咐你的。”

伟大的布道家布永康说：“真正的伟大，并不是权高或灵性的突出，而是遵循神的旨意做事。”

通过以下网页的文章，将使你更清楚神对我的呼召: -

The "Fire Anointing" and It's Purpose / 圣火的恩膏及其目的

除了被分别为圣和奉献于主用之外，我学会如何服从祂的声音。詹立言博士，是一位在卫理公会事奉超过二十五年的牧师，也牧养过将近二十间的教会。他是我在加利福尼亚州参加中文会议时的室友。在一篇网页的文章中，他见证我是一位不折不扣绝对服从于神的人：http://www.ckrm.org/?p=566

任何被委任和按立为神圣火恩高的执事，除非他们有类似感受，否则他们不会明白的。我的见证祝福和激励了许多基督徒。很多蒙受祝福人也通过我们的网站http://www.ckrm.org见证上帝在我们的事工上奇妙的运行和作为。赞美上帝！

以下是我与大家分享的其中两个见证： -

http://www.ckrm.org/?p=2433 （Joyce Tai牧师/博士，学院的创始人之一）

http://www.ckrm.org/?p=546 （加利福尼亚州，欧文教会的以撒牧师，）

当我生活在糜烂时，主给了我一个选择。祂说，如果我愿意奉献和跟随祂，离开一切属世的，背起十字架与祂同行，祂将会让我过着美好的生活。现在，我可以亲眼看到祂是多么的信实。

我有四个孩子，他们都与我很亲密，也非常支持我的事工。我们今天的关系比以前更加密切。我的三个儿子都毕业于澳洲的大学。我的女儿在美国，于一位非常虔诚的基督徒结了婚。长子，乔治离开了银行的工作，成立一家食品企业。该业务在2002年开始发展，并扩展到几个国家。我在以下的网页写下了有关他的业务发展的文章：

所有的荣耀，都归于我们的主耶稣基督！

谢谢主耶稣基督，我的救主。哈利路亚！阿门！

The 8th Joshua Camp was held on the 2nd December to the 4th December at Canaan Penthouse Conference Hall, Legenda Condo, Klebang Kecil Malacca. The Biblical meaning of number 8 : comes from my understanding that it normally deals with one who abounds in strength. The number eight is also used in reference to fertility. It has also been used when referring to the Resurrection or new beginnings.

Prior to the 8th Joshua Camp a Five Fold Ministers’ Retreat was held at Canaan Penthouse Conference Hall where pastors and leaders from all over the world came to pray for a spiritual breakthrough in Malacca. True to the meaning of eight which refers to a new beginning, the Lord led a group of young boys and girls from Banting and a sister named Docus from Beijing, China to this Camp.

Pastor Paul shared about the importance of Fire Anointing and Spiritual Weapons so that we can be effective disciples of Christ. The new comers received many spiritual gifts when Ps Paul prayed for the impartation of Fire Anointing. Sister Docus who hardly spoke English burst out worshiping our Lord Jesus Christ with songs of praise in English. Before this encounter while in Israel she noticed many Chinese spoke fluently in English and she desired deeply in her heart to be competent in this language. The Lord graciously gave her new words like “rain”,” “worship”, “bless Fire” and “follow me.” She spoke all these new English word without knowing its meaning.

Ps Thian commented that “the word of God is signs and wonders. If there are no signs and wonders you cannot go very far. So don’t belittle the signs and wonders. We need to learn and able to perform signs and wonders.” Pastor Thian concluded that the teaching about signs and wonders is the hallmark of CKRM.

Ps O.K. Thian who is our Advisor for CKRM Leadership Malaysia shared yesterday in our Joshua Camp that he is so privilege and excited that God has chosen him to work with us in this new Auditorium project as an Architect.

The Lord led a very senior minister who is a PhD holder and his wife to our Joshua Camp. A senior minister in healing and deliverance ministry, he is a certified and licensed as ordained minister by Covenant Ministries International, Inc USA. He said that “many people may not know the implication of signs & wonders but these are the last days of the outpouring. He looked forward to working with us in the healing & deliverance ministry."

Bishop Rev Dr Akintunde the President and Founder of The Weight of His Glory International Ministries, in Lagos Nigeria who has travelled widely around the world shared how God can use us more than He is using us now. In our lives we are vessels to God. 2 Timothy 2: 20-26 says that God wants to use us but we must be clean. He further preached that in Luke 6:27-28 the Lords expect our lives to be different from others. When our hearts are purified completely, then we are special to the Lord. Bishop Joseph a man of God who is sensitive to the leading of the Holy Spirit affirmed that we should not reject the new spiritual things that the Lord is doing in churches today. On the last day of the Camp he preached about the fullness of God to the campers like the mind, the power, the wisdom, the nature, the pattern of God, the character, etc. This means what makes God to be God was all found in Christ himself. When love is in our hearts, then we will have revelations from God.

In conclusion, Bishop Joseph Rev Dr Joseph Akintunde told us to expect a new beginning after this Camp. The Lord would release a new strength in us, so do make a new covenant with Jesus. When there is a covenant from our hearts, expect to see great miracles to happen. We must make up our minds to follow God even though we cannot see Him. People become very afraid if they have not seen new moves of God before. Even when the speaking of tongues started in the 60s, the churches took more than 10 years to accept that speaking in tongues are biblical and it is from God. We need to know the truth so that the truth will set us free (John 8:32).

Being involved with some building projects and properties in Malacca and Kuala Lumpur in the 90s, I would never have imagined that the Lord would bring me back from Singapore to Malacca again to develop properties. After all, I had left the development industry after selling my 50% shares in a company that owned a high rise commercial office building in 2002.

In 2004, the Lord gave me a vision of a beautiful Auditorium with a very large seating capacity. I felt that this was for Malacca as I recalled that Lord said to me in 2003 that revival is coming to Malacca.

I had an extreme encounter while attending a short course in California in 2004. This experience was something like Apostle Paul's Damascus Road Encounter with God. After the course ended, the President of the Seminary invited me for lunch. He shared with me that the Lord has put a burden on his heart to set up a training center in Kuala Lumpur. After that, I shared with him the vision I had received as well as a word given to me by the Lord that there would be a revival in Malacca 500 years after the Portuguese came to Malacca in 1511. Malacca was the old entry point for Christianity through the Portuguese.

I thought it was a divine appointment to meet with this man of God who has the experience, connection and the resources to build the Auditorium which was the reason we visited Malacca together few years ago. After the visit he set up a leadership training center in Malacca.

The Lord sent me & Ps Esther to Malacca in 2009. We came with so much passion to build a supernatural training center. The Lord then told us to cut off contacts with our past associates and He closed all doors in order to put us in the Potter's house to reshape the clay in His hand. At the end of 2010, He revealed that it was time to re-establish contact with my past associates and permitted me to contact my old development partner, Bro Gabriel Eng. Bro Gabriel Eng and I had a joint venture in the development of the 'Legenda Condominium' project in the 90s (Photographs of Building & Penthouse Conference Room).

It is through this molding period that I realize that the vison of building an Auditorium is actually for me to fulfill.

I had my doubt when the Lord told me that my ex-developing partner is now a Christian so when I met him, I was indeed surprised that this 'Temple Towkay' has become a God-chaser. It is indeed true to what the Lord has told me.

In the 90s, we were partners pursuing fame, status and money but today, He put us together to faithfully serve in His kingdom. The Lord said that how He had used us in the natural way, He is now going to use us in the supernatural way. In the 90s, we trusted in chariots and horses, but today we trust in the name of the Lord our God.

With both of us now young in faith and full of fire, zeal and love for our Lord Jesus, we are both so willing to dedicate our lives to the Lord and also to dedicate our properties for His ministries. Recently, the Lord puts a burden on Bro Gabriel Eng's heart concerning a certain ministry. When Bro Gabriel shared with me about the burden, the Lord then brought my memory to the vision given to me about the beautiful Auditorium. Now I could understand now that the Lord has called both of us to build His kingdom and to promote greater unity among brothers and sisters in Christ.

The Lord has prepared us well in past development where we have acquired the skill, resources and connection to do the task that He has given to us. As in Isaiah 55:8, "For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways" declares the Lord.

The 8th Joshua Camp marks a new beginning of CKRM ministry in Malacca.

After completing six Joshua Camp in Malacca and one at CKRM Petaling Jaya, the Lord has begun to reconcile significant servant of God like Rev Mary Eu ( Liu Tsai Fang ) to CKRM. Rev Mary Eu is currently the senior pastor in charge of Singapore Christian Prayer House ( SCPH ). She is now leading the Tuesday 9.30 am Christ Kingdom’s prayer group at CKRM Singapore. Besides Rev Mary Eu, the Lord has brought anointed preachers like Bishop Dr Joseph Akintunde and Prophet John O Temple to connect with CKRM. Dr Joseph Akintunde used to conduct seminars & meetings at our Manhattan House, Singapore in 2004.

In this coming 8th Joshua Camp , Ps Paul Ang will be sharing on 3 important topics:

i)   Ministering Fire Anointing

ii)  What do Manifestations mean quoting Scriptural references and with demonstration of the Word
      in signs & wonders (Mark 16:20 "And they went out and preached everywhere, the Lord working
      with them and confirming the word through the accompanying signs.")

iii) Spiritual Weapons

Manifestation of the Holy Spirit as per the link below:-

It is time to usher in our King of Glory into Malacca. Psalms 24 “Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in. Who is this King of glory? The LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle. Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in. Who is this King of glory? The LORD of hosts, He is the King of glory. Selah.” It is time to come as one Body of Christ so that His will be done in this city. 1 Chronicles 12:32 says “And of the children of Issachar, which were men that had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do; the heads of them were two hundred; and all their brethren were at their commandment.”By having spiritual discernment and putting our differences aside let us put our hands on the plough and labour together for the coming King of glory.

Are you desperate to experience the Lord? Experiencing personal spiritual dryness? Wants to be baptized by the Holy Spirit and fire? Do sign up for the coming Joshua Camp. To avoid disappointment please sign up early as only limited places are available at the moment. God Bless.

I came on board as leader of CKRM Christian Centre about three years ago opened a door of great adventure and opportunities for me. Never in my life I would imagined I would be writing a book "Experience His Glory" for the Lord although the Lord did impressed on my heart that I will write a Christian book full with picture illustrations when I was 24 years old. In addition the Lord also gave me a taste of life as a leader in a Christian ministry that moves in the Supernatural and also in the prophetic.

When I first came to CKRM Christian Centre, I was more interested in soaking in the Kavod presence of the Lord as much as I enjoy going to spa. Being a leader and to be equipped with gift of prophetic was the last thing in my mind. To me, to move in the prophetic and be endowed with spiritual gift was too much a price to pay. I preferred a life of easiness.

Nevertheless the Lord appointed me as a leader much to my surprise, and hence has been trying to obey the Lord in doing what He wanted me to do. If you understand CKRM ministry, the founding pastors will not appoint me as a leader base on my natural talent or my seminary background (in fact I do not have any seminary training). But they will appoint me when the Lord told them to do so, even though they do not know much of me and I do not know much of them. All they do is to obey the Lord and just do it.

In 2010, after spending a hectic one year in publication of my book, I thought I would have a life of easiness in 2011. I was not interested in even taking the pulpit. I think to many leaders they would think I am the most laid back of all.

In April this year I have a dream from the Lord. In this dream the Lord revealed that I would have a change of portfolio in a month's time. Not knowing what the Lord was referring to, I thought He was referring to my secular job. Then in mid of May, one day while I was sleeping, I saw the Jesus holding a tray and coming towards me. I was excited when I saw the Lord and the tray. But when I looked that the tray, the tray was empty. "Where is the gift/present ?" I thought. So the tray was actually a gift / tray for me. The tray represents it is time for me to be serious with my calling and it is time to serve, just like a waiter or a waitress.

So when Ps CM Tan came on board, I was there to assist her. But it was only for a short while as I was very busy in my secular job and being sick often. In fact out of 11 months this year, I was sick for 6 months. Nearing my birthday in August, another surprise came to me. Ps CM Tan resigned as the Lord only wanted her to stay for 3 months, the Lord prompted Ps Paul and Ps Esther to appoint me as the leader for CKRM Supernatural and Anointing Ministry. Here I am, the life of easiness that I have been looking for kaput again.

Since I took up the ministry, the Lord has been good to me and to the leaders. I have a group of worship team that are getting better and better. The anointing in the power ministry has grown. The Lord revealed through different channels including myself how to increase the anointing in the power ministry. I would not contribute the increase in anointing as my own achievement. I must thank the elders, the leaders and the members that have been patiently serving the Lord selflessly. There is power in unity.

Through my three months as the leader of the ministry, the Lord bestowed new function for the Sword of the Lord. The Sword of the Lord is also now being used to slay dragons and strongmen in the spirit realm I slayed two dragons while I was in Bali for holiday in October. Thus the slaying of dragon anointing is like an upgraded software version. While Sword of the Lord is software version 1.1, the Dragon slayer anointing is software version 1.2. In fact just last week I used the Sword of the Lord to break the witchcraft which someone has put on a Muslim friend. This friend is not just a normal girl. Whenever things it is going to happen to her, it will be just somehow revealed in her dream.

In addition, I imparted to the the leaders and some members a new weapon I received from the Lord in April 2011. It is a inner healing gifting. A prophetic act of sewing of the human heart with a spiritual threat and needle set a person free from emotional hurts. We saw many people were ministered to with this inner healing gifting. When I imparted to Sis Ruth the thread and needle gifting, she saw a needle and three threads in different colors on her hands. God is so amazing!

When there is unity, the anointing grow. Unity is a powerful weapon. Thus I treasure this unity greatly. Just this morning, a pastor who has a church in India and Malaysia lamented to me. He said that a certain member of his congregation do not agree on the pastor's practice that Holy Communion should be served to all Christians including new believers and not just to water-baptised Christians. He asked me my opinion. I said I understand some churches only serve Holy Communion to water-baptised Christians and some churches serves Holy Communion to all believers including new believers that yet to be water-baptised. So this particular member with the traditional mind accused the pastor of teaching wrong doctrines and even spread the false accusation around. I comforted the pastor and told him nobody can claimed that he/she has 100% understanding of the bible. The person who can claimed to have all knowledge either think he is God or he is full of shortsightedness. The person that tries to divide the church with his own thinking has a religious spirit which is as destructive as a Jezebel spirit.

Just like Rick Joyner said " We should know the God of Truths rather than the truths of God.". The war on who has the correct doctrines is never ending. If we focus on the differences, we are standing on the devil side to divide the church. When the church is divided, the most happy being is Satan. Why do men so oftenly and foolishly fall into Satan's trap and being used by the enemy?

Are you one of them being used by Satan to criticise the church of God and attempting to bring division to the congregation? If you do, repent!

In my book I wrote about the Warwick dream. The dream talks about Christians fighting with one another using the bible. It is never ending in today's churches and God is grieved. So I told the pastor to preach on the warwick dream to give a wake-up call to his members. In addition I told him if I am a pastor of that church. I told him I will tell that member with the religious spirit to leave the church if he is disagreeable. I was surprised at my own answer as I am more well-known to be a peaceloving person. But coming from a leader of the church, I would think this would work best for any ministry.

Dear Friends,

Good news! 

On 1.11.2005, Rev Mary Eu (a.k.a Liu Tsia Fang) commissioned the opening of our place for the 1st Prayer Meeting with about 95 people including pastors and Church leaders attending the meeting.

Thereon, there were storms and trials. "A bruised reed he will not break, and a smoldering wick he will not snuff out ..." (Matthew 12:20).

Now, exactly 6 years later on 1.11.11, HE brought Rev Liu Tsia Fang back. God is humorous. Who can understand our God? No one could as His ways and thoughts are higher than our ways and thoughts (Isaiah 55:8).

The venue for Christ Kingdom's Prayer Meeting is held at CKRM Singapore every Tuesday at 9.30 am with address as follows:-

Manhattan House #16-01/02 (Penthouse)
151 Chin Swee Road,
Singapore 169876.

CKRM and Singapore Christian Prayer House (SCPH) will be jointly organizing event i.e overnight year end prayer retreat at CKRM Singapore (29.12.11 to 1st January 2012). Will provide more information in due course.

At times, we are so blinded by our own fleshy desire that we never go into prayer to seek the Lord whether or not it is His will that we should go ahead to do a project. A few years ago, I was encouraged by my American friend who was setting up a school of ministry in Malaysia, to purchase a resort service apartment since he had already bought a unit. We even went to the property auction together.

I did not purchase the property as my fund was tied up with currency trading and Hedge Fund investment as I was still in business, not embarking into full time ministry yet.

Then, the Lord told me to withdraw from such investment. He prompted me to make full settlement towards my bank loan for my properties in Singapore. It was painful experience as I was enjoying an attractive profit from the investment but I had to obey the Lord after seeking confirmation after confirmation due to my struggle to obey by faith.

Shortly after I had fully redeemed the properties from the bank after settling the entire outstanding loan, the US Currency declined sharply in value. Had I not obeyed the Lord, my investment would have been wiped out because of the sudden turn of event which had led to an economic crisis.

Now the resort apartment cum hotel in Malaysia which I did not purchase earlier has shut down the business and power supply has been disconnected to the whole building since August this year. The whole building is now deserted. Had I made the purchase, I would have been caught in a dilemma where I cannot stay, rent out or even sell the property.

I am sharing this experience to encourage everyone of us that in whatever we do, we need to seek the Lord for His will and direction even on matter concerning to build His house as in Psalms 127:1, "Unless the Lord builds the house, its builders labour in vain. Unless the Lord watches over the city, the watchmen stand guard in vain."

In every situation, God is also speaking to us through environment or situations. Even though our ministry has the available fund to purchase a property in Petaling Jaya, Malaysia, we did not make any hasty decision by using our fleshy desire to buy the property. We did not purchase any property because God did not confirm that we should go ahead doing with what we had in our minds.

We just wait and wait upon the Lord until the Lord told us 7 months later to resume the ministry in Malacca. Then only we realized that His plan is better than our plan (Isaiah 55:8). As long as we earnestly seek His will, there will never be any lack in provision, resources and fund for the ministries that He has ordained and commissioned us to do and we also enjoy His full protection.

Jonah disobeyed the Lord and ran away from the Lord. He went aboard a ship. Then the Lord sent a great wind on the sea that the ship threatened to break up in a situation using the storm to speak to the sailors. Only after seeking the Lord using the method of casting lots that they realized that Jonah was the cause for the storm because of his disobedience to God (Jonah 1:1-7).

The Bible says that “Because those who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God” (Romans 8:14). We need to be sensitive when the Lord uses environment and situations to speak to us.

Every ministry or everyone has a calling in the Body of Christ with each part of the Body serving differently (1 Corinthians 12:12-30).

A man of God wrote: “The Church is one body.” Paul said, "We were baptized into one body in a single Spirit" (1 Corinthians 12:13). But this one body has many parts. As Paul said, "If they were all the same part, how could it be a body? As it is, the parts are many but the body is one" (1 Corinthians 12:19). Not everyone can be everything. Often we expect one member of the body to fulfil a task that belongs to others. But the hands cannot be asked to see or the eyes to hear. Together we are Christ's body, each of us with a part to play in the whole (see 1 Corinthians 12:27). Let us be grateful for our limitation but being a real part in the body.

Jesus came as a sacrificial Lamb to save the world and He became obedient till death - even death on the cross (Philippians 2:8). Hence, He remained silence and went to the cross to fulfil the will of the Father.

Moses’ calling was to perform all the wonders as a demonstration to convince the Pharaoh that God had called him to set his people free and to lead them out of Egypt. The Lord told Moses in Exodus 4:21, "When you return to Egypt, see that you perform before Pharaoh all the wonders I have given you the power to do. But I will harden his heart so that he will not let the people go."

God prepares each one He calls in a different way. In Acts 7:22 "Moses was educated in all the wisdom of the Egyptians and was powerful in speech and action." Daniel was in the Babylonian ways and he was even given a name of a Babylonian god and he was chief of the magicians, enchanters, astrologers and diviners. Daniel 5:11, The Queen told the king, "There is a man in your kingdom that has the spirit of the holy god in him. In the time of your father he was found to have insight and intelligence and wisdom like that of the gods. The Queen told the ruler that King Nebuchadnezzar your father–your father the king, I say–appointed him chief of the magicians, enchanters, astrologers and diviners."

A senior pastor of a Mega Church in Singapore humorously told his congregants not to scold or bad mouth him behind his back because of his role as a magician to draw salvation. He shared that the Lord would discipline him if he has sinned against God. As a man of God whom the Lord has ordained for a specific task to bring in salvation, the pastor was just obeying what the Lord has deposited in his heart, just like Noah was given a specific task to build a boat in the middle of a dry land. There was no biblical precedent of a virgin giving birth to a child, yet Mary was willing to obey God to do the task given to her.

Paul an intellectual and learned man of the Law of Moses was called to preach the message of the cross - the message of the cross is the power of the gospel.

John 4:34, "My food,” said Jesus “is to do the will of him who sent me and to finish his work."

Paul said in 2 Timothy 4:7, "I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, and I have kept the faith." When we finally meet our Maker, we alone are accountable to Him and not our critics for the works that He has ordained us during our lives on earth.

Jesus said very clearly in Matthew 7:21, “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven."

Let us not judge or be critical about others if we do not understand the kind of burden God has given and ordained them for the work. We should heed the wisdom of Kathie Walters when she wrote about critics: “Do what God wants you to do and stop judging ministries because you do not know how God works and you are not God.” Or at least heed the advice of Paul when he taught that we should continue to work our salvation with fear and trembling…. (Philippians 2:12).

We all fall short of the glory of God and if we really work out our salvation with fear and trembling, we would be so busy repenting that we don’t really have the time to judge others. This is the secret to our spiritual growth which is God’s heartbeat for His children to grow from glory to glory to the image of Christ. It is through repentance and His sanctification that we can be filled to His fullness as God gives the Spirit without measure (John 3:34).

Hebrews 12:14, "Pursue peace with all people, and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord." Though the Lord loves sinners, He cannot tolerate sin and though He lives in all believers, the Glory of God which is His manifested presence rests on only a few.

Much as He shows unfailing kindness to his anointed (Psalm 18:50), He will discipline His anointed when the anointed sins against God.

1 Samuel 15:3, the Lord told Saul through Samuel, "Now go, attack the Amalekites and totally destroy everything that belongs to them. Do not spare them; put to death men and women, children and infants, cattle and sheep, camels and donkeys."

In our present world, isn't killing innocent women, children and infants considered a very serious crime? Saddam Hussein went to the gallows for such genocide committed against his people.

Saul's partial obedience caused him his throne. Saul was punished for his disobedience. The Spirit of God was grieved and left Saul and Saul lost his kingdom to David (1 Samuel 16:14).

God disciplined David for his sins. David has a heart that God loves. The time he suffered greatly was when he began to count his fighting men. Sin of pride came into his life when He put his trust on the strength of the numbers of fighting men instead of God. His evil scheme to take Bathsheba as his wife took two lives but the sin of trusting on the numbers of his fighting men made God very angry and caused 70,000 lives to perish (2 Samuel 24).

We should not judge others just because they do not share the same burden God has called us. The Bible taught us not to judge. James 4:12, "There is only one Lawgiver and Judge, the one who is able to save and destroy. But you–who are you to judge your neighbour? “Hence, let us do what the Lord has ordained us and not be critical by judging other ministries.

We just do what the Lord has ordained us to do. It will be disastrous for a doctor trying to be a lawyer fighting a case in court, so don't expect a person to have the burden of a shepherd if he is not called to be one or a shepherd trying to play the role of a prophet.

Someone wrote the miracles, signs and wonders of God did not die with the prophets of old but more will be manifested in this 21st Century. God has not changed! I believe the church of Jesus Christ hasn’t seen anything yet. The best is yet to come! Supernatural manifestations will take place not only in the form of healing and deliverances, but also in other demonstrations of God’s power and glory we have not yet seen.

Rev Dr Joseph Akintunde shared a timely message from Colossians 1:12 “giving thanks to the Father who has qualified us to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in the light.” Have we asked ourselves are we really partakers of the inheritance of what God has freely given to us through our Lord Jesus Christ? There is a powerful, invisible, supernatural realm that can be reached only through the power of the spirit living and working within us! Within the body of Christ today, God’s mighty power is being manifested in pockets here and there. Miracles are happening today, but not on the scale of what is coming. Great demonstration of His power will bring in the harvest of the nations. The church, as a whole is not currently operating in the unlimited supernatural power God intends us to have. Rev Dr. Joseph Akintunde was in Malacca recently and he preached a message that until and unless the churches come in unity as in Psalms 133, the Lord will not send his anointing to His house as we have been long crying to God for revival in our land.

During fellowship with a pastor Rev Dr Joseph Akintunde shared a Biblical example from Acts 18:24 to 28

24 Meanwhile a Jew named Apollos, a native of Alexandria, came to Ephesus. He was a learned man, with a thorough knowledge of the Scriptures. 25 He had been instructed in the way of the Lord, and he spoke with great fervor[a] and taught about Jesus accurately, though he knew only the baptism of John. 26 He began to speak boldly in the synagogue. When Priscilla and Aquila heard him, they invited him to their home and explained to him the way of God more adequately. 27 When Apollos wanted to go to Achaia, the brothers and sisters encouraged him and wrote to the disciples there to welcome him. When he arrived, he was a great help to those who by grace had believed. 28 For he vigorously refuted his Jewish opponents in public debate, proving from the Scriptures that Jesus was the Messiah.

Priscilla and Aquila did not keep a distance from Apollos, or spread rumors to discredit Apollos in order to isolate him when he came as an alien in the town to preach the gospel. They did not brand him an occult. Instead, they demonstrated their kingdom's heart, mind, love and grace by inviting Apollos to their home and explained to him the way of God more adequately and Apollos was able to reach out and preach to the Jews where they were not able to.

Why should we isolate an alien who come to our town to share the Gospel when they were preaching the Gospel in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ?

A disciple complained to Jesus in Mark 9:38-39 “Teacher,” said John, “we saw a man driving out demons in your name and we told him to stop, because he was not one of us.” “Do not stop him,” Jesus said. “No one who does a miracle in my name can in the next moment say anything bad about me, Mark 9:40 for whoever is not against us is for us. The teachings found in Acts 18:24-28 can be summarized as such:

1. Room to improve

"Accurate," yes; but incomplete: work of the Spirit in regeneration; commission given by Christ to the church; indwelling of the Holy Spirit, here only John's baptism. It is the person who thinks he cannot improve his understanding who is in greatest danger. Many people know a lot about the Bible, but they don't understand the truth. As long as they hang on to their rote knowledge as substantial, they will fail in the matter of truth.

Truth is essentially the working out of the many doctrines in God's Word. There is a flip side to this when a person can learn doctrines but be deficient in their harmony and application to life.

2. Teachable

He listened attentively! This is one of the greatest needs among Christians: to maintain a teachable spirit.

a. You know you've not arrived.

b. You know that the Lord is ever teaching you through various people and means.

c. You know that it takes time to grapple with truth and to absorb it in life-changing experience.

d. You know that pride can be your biggest obstacle to true understanding.

e. You know that understanding truth is liberating.

f. You know that there is a harmony to God's truth throughout the Scripture.

3. Willing, conscientious teachers

No arrogance on Aquila and Priscilla's part. They had a genuine desire to further God's kingdom and knew that this is not done apart from truth.

a. Discretion in counselling him privately

b. Building on what he already understood

c. Passion for Biblical accuracy

d. A concern for content, the "Way of God"

4. Recognized by the body (v. 27)

a. Helped the brethren v. 27

b. Refuted the sceptical Jews v. 28

5. Bold in ministry (v. 28)

Attention not drawn to him but to Christ!

The Lord indeed has a very special plan for Malacca because this is the place where the gospel first landed 500 years ago. Our lord has been speaking but have we been listening? It is time to come together as one Body, one Spirit and one Mind to build His Kingdom. “God’s divine plan is to prepare the church for the final restoration, to the Glory He pre-ordained for her before Jesus returns”- Rev Dr Joseph Akintunde wrote in his book “Realm of the Spirit.” The church must raise its voice in unity and pray, “Lord we are one, do it again! Pour out Your Spirit! Make known and magnify Your great name and power in this generation and give us this land!
