--------
I became a Christian when I was about the age of 5. Although I have been a Christian most of my life, I do not really know who God is and the plans He has for me. Church life to me is attending services, listening to what the preacher has to say and going for lunch with my family or friends. As I grow older, other priorities in life took precedence and I backslide in faith. It was hard to stay fervent as I hardly hear or experience God till I was 26.
One of my friends, Mark, was attending CKRM and he invited me for service. He has told me a lot about CKRM and what they did there. He told me about the manifestations and what he has experienced in CKRM. Personally, I was quite sceptical and afraid. I was worried that the folks in CKRM could read through me like a transparency, and I find it hard to believe that there is a church that operates like CKRM.
The following paragraphs are extracts from my journal.
My first visit to CKRM was on the 6th Dec 2008. An unexplainable fear arose within me and I still felt sceptical about the whole thing. I have heard so much from Mark about what he saw in CKRM, and I wondered whether they were real. He mentioned “The Roar of the Lion of Judah”, “The Sword of the Spirit” etc. I have never seen “them” in any church before and struggled to believe in their existence.
Pastor Paul asked me to come out to be prayed for. I was afraid; what if nothing happens? Won’t it be very embarrassing? Nevertheless, I went forward in spite of my concerns and fears. As the pastor prayed for me, I fell under the power of God. It was as if I’m going to faint. I started to shiver and felt really cold. My hands were getting numb and my breathing began to quicken. My teeth were chattering. Pastor Paul told the people around me that I was undergoing deliverance. I was like ‘huh?’, because I had never been through or even seen one before. Subsequently, I vomited for about 5-6 times. I felt terrible, like there was a cork that got stuck in my throat.
When I thought it was all over, Pastor Paul told me to stand up, lift up my hands and look at him. I did as told and my body started to tremble slightly. I shouted with all my might at the top of my voice. My hands went numb and cold. And my fingers started to curl up like a claw. Although I could straighten my fingers, I chose not to as I wanted to experience it fully. I felt like growling but I suppressed it; it would be embarrassing and weird if I growled like an animal. My legs gave way and I went on my fours on the ground. My hands curled up like a claw or paw. Throughout the entire process, I felt anger raging within me. I have never experienced or known such anger in me; the source of the anger was not me but the “thing” within me. I do not know what it was angry with but I was sure it was not angry with me.
That was how my first deliverance went. Pastor Paul told me to come back the following week. I assumed that I had been imparted with the Roar of the Lion of Judah but I was wrong ...
So I came to CKRM again on the 12th Dec. Something interesting happened on that day as well. Pastor Paul mentioned that he will hand over the pulpit to Brother Timothy at 6pm. As Pastor Paul was talking to the congregation, Brother Timothy started to manifest. His body was inclined frontwards and he moved around with his heels tilting inwards.
I was quite taken aback because I did not see that coming. I checked at my watch; it was exactly 6pm sharp! Brother Timothy wasn’t wearing a watch and I don’t see anyone telling him that it was 6pm. Mark was sitting beside me and I told him that Brother Timothy really start off at 6pm. Mark told me that the Holy Spirit is never late. I do have my doubts, but I never expected Brother Timothy to manifest at 6 pm sharp.
And so the service went on. When it was time for empowerment, I was called to the front. I was told once again to look into Pastor Paul’s eyes and to lift up my hands. After a while, I started to breathe deeply and quickly. My hands began to numb and my fingers curled up. I howled and subsequently rested on the ground out of exhaustion. The whole ordeal was similar to what I had experienced in the previous week.
Suddenly I felt “something” within my stomach moving slowly up to my throat. The whole experience was so real! And when it reached my throat, it stopped and got stuck there. I took a deep breath and howled with all my might. I recalled howling for about 7-8 times continuously. There were people praying for me and a sister was “roaring” in my ears. After a while, I stopped howling and I felt really weak. I dropped to my fours. They identified the “thing” within me to be the spirit of fear. My trembling stopped and my breathing resumed to normal. I know that it was over, and it dawned on me how real the spiritual realm is!!
I thank God that I once was lost, but now I can proudly and happily say I am a Child of God.

撒 迦 利 亞 13:9
我 要 使 这 三 分 之 一 经 火 ， 熬 炼 他 们 ， 如 熬 炼 银 子 ； 试 炼 他 们 ， 如 试 炼 金 子 。 他 们 必 求 告 我 的 名 ， 我 必 应 允 他 们 。 我 要 说 ： 这 是 我 的 子 民 。 他 们 也 要 说 ： 耶 和 华 是 我 们 的 神 。
我大概在五岁的时候就成为基督徒。虽然如此，我并不很认识神也不知道他在我生命的计划。教会生活对我而言就是出席主日学，主日崇拜听牧师讲道，散会后跟家人或会友吃午饭。长大后，生命里其他的需要占据了我的生命，使我对神冷淡。在我二十六岁之前，我也很少经历或听见神的声音，要专著跟着祂更是困难。所以后来我甚至背道了。
一位在CKRM的朋友，马可(MARK) ，邀请我去他的教会。他告诉我神在CKRM如何彰显和他自己在那里的经历。我感到害怕，担心CKRM那里的人会看透我的内心世界。同时，我也很难相信世上有象CKRM如此运行的教会。
以下是我日记的一些摘要：
我在二零零八年十二月六日首次拜访CKRM。莫名的害怕从心而生, 对所见所闻也感到疑惑。我从马可口中听了许多他在CKRM的所见所闻, 心想这一切是否属实。马可提到犹大狮子的吼叫, 圣灵宝剑等等的彰显。这些东西我在其他教会都不曾见过, 使我难以相信它们的存在。
保罗牧师邀请我到前面来, 要为我祷告。我顿时感到害怕。心想如果什么都没发生哪要怎么办? 会不会很丢脸? 尽管如此, 我仍然走上前接受祷告。当牧师帮我祷告时, 我感到神的能力降在我身上，那股力量把我击倒在地上。我感到很冷, 身体一直不停颤抖, 牙齿不停地打颤。我的手逐渐麻痹而呼吸也渐渐急促。保罗牧师告诉周围的人我正经历释放。未曾经历或见过释放的我心感惊讶。之后, 我吐了五六回。 我觉的难受, 喉咙似乎有东西哽在里头。
正当我以为一切已过去, 保罗牧师叫我站起来, 并叫我举起双手看着他。我听从他的指示, 身体又开始稍微颤抖。我大声的怒吼, 手又麻又冷, 手指形成兽类的爪形。, 原本我可以控制自己不让给彰显，但为了能更完全体验这一切，我没有伸直我的手指。虽口想吼叫, 但我压制自己, 因象禽兽那样吼叫是非常难堪和怪异的。整个过程里, 我感觉一股怒气在体内移动。我从没体验过这样的愤怒。这愤怒的根源不是我自己，而是在我体内的 东西。我不知道它在气什么，但我很肯定它不是在气我。
我第一次的释放就这样过去了。保罗牧师叫我下个星期要再回来。当时,我还以为我得到圣灵的恩赐的犹大狮子的吼叫。我十二月十二日再次拜访CKRM。有趣的事情再次发生。保罗牧师说他会在六点正把讲台交给提摩太弟兄。过会他继续和会众分享时。。。。。。。。。忽然，坐在位子上的 提摩太弟兄开始有圣灵的彰显。他的身体向前, 脚跟向内斜地在走动。没有心里准备的我看到这一幕感到吃惊。我看一看手表, 正好是六点。提摩太弟兄没戴表而我也没看见任何人告诉他时间。我就告诉坐在我身旁的马可弟兄，说：提摩太真的在六点正走动。马可回答说：圣灵从来是不迟到的。我心存怀疑但我的确没料到提摩太弟兄会在六点正彰显。
聚会照常的进行，而我又被叫到前面去。我又再次举起双手看着保罗牧师。过了一会儿, 我的呼吸开始紧凑, 手开始麻痹而手指像兽类的卷起。我怒吼一阵后,接着疲惫地倒在地上休息。整个过程就如上个星期的一样。
突然我感觉有东西从肚里慢慢移到我的喉咙。整个经历是那么真实! 当它抵达喉咙时, 它又停顿在那并哽在我喉咙里。我深深吸了一口气, 并且用全力吼叫。要给它出去， 我连续吼叫了七八次。有许多人围着我祷告而一位姐妹在我耳边向我吼叫。过了一会儿, 我停止吼叫。无力的我膝行在地上。众人辨认在我体内的东西是惧怕的灵。我不再颤抖, 呼吸也恢复正常。我知道这个争战已经结束也顿时领悟属灵界是如此真实!感谢主, 我虽曾失丧但如今能高高兴兴, 骄傲地说我是神的子女。
有一天我阅读关于圣灵的书本时得知基督徒要从圣灵那里领受超自然能力。虽然我不知道怎样才能得到这超自然的能力，
但心里却非常渴慕。我常常在家祷告神洁净我，更新我的灵；但是我的灵命还是那样的枯干，事奉没有能力， 生命也没有圣灵的彰显。神明白我的心意也了解我肉体的软弱。蒙主恩典， 不久后我在CKRM 经历了圣灵成了我生命的转泪点。以下是我的见证。
第一次来到CKRM我就不感到陌生，感觉上大家就像家人般的亲切让我感到很喜乐。保罗牧师教导有关圣灵超自然能力，神也赐给我的经文印证。我亲眼目睹神如何使用保罗牧师。每当神恩膏降下时，
许多人身上都彰显了圣灵超自然的能力。我恒心的向神祈求传福音的恩赐然后等候。 29-09-07 当保罗牧师说神降下传福音恩膏时，我毫不犹豫开口张手领受。感谢主耶稣，我终于等到了！
今年中秋节我家开放作小组布道会。事前我为失丧灵魂祷告，高举和赞美神大能的荣耀来吸人归向主 耶稣。结果总共有20多个人出席而其中有好几人接受了主耶稣。荣耀归于神。
我鼓励大家抓紧机会常常来CKRM领受恩膏，要时常渴慕，不要放弃，开你的口张手向神要祝福。
馬太福音 7:7-8
7你们祈求，就给你们；寻找，就寻见；叩门，就给你们开门。
8因为凡祈求的，就得着；寻找的，就寻见；叩门的，就给他开门。
在此我要感谢主恩膏的仆人保罗牧师，也感谢Esther牧师和弟兄姐妹的爱心，关怀和帮助。我把一切荣耀归于主耶稣。

My wait is finally over ! - Sis Lim Poh Suan
One day, while reading a book about the Holy Spirit, I realised that Christians are to receive supernatural power from the Holy Spirit. Although I did not know how to get this supernatural power, my heart yearned very much for it. I often prayed at home for God to sanctify me and rejuvenate my spirit but my spiritual life remained dry, my serving had no power and there was no manifestation of the Holy Spirit in my life. God knows my heart and understands my weaknesses. By the Grace of God, I experienced the power of the Holy Spirit in CKRM shortly after and that was the turning point. Below is my testimony:
I did not feel out of place when I first came to CKRM as everybody treated each other like family and I felt joyous there. Pastor Paul taught about the supernatural power of the Holy Spirit, and God also gave me scriptures on it. I saw with my own eyes how God is using Pastor Paul. Whenever God’s anointing falls, many have physical manifestations of the supernatural power of the Holy Spirit. Determined, I prayed to God for the anointing to spread the Gospel and waited. When Pastor Paul said that God is pouring out the anointing for spreading the Gospel on 29th of Sept 2007, I did not hesitate to open my mouth and arms to receive it. Thank you Jesus, the wait is finally over.
A cell group meeting was held at my house during the mooncake festival in 2008. Prior to the meeting, I prayed for the souls of the unsaved, highly exalted and praised God so that the people will come to the Lord, Jesus. In the end, more than 20 people attended the cell meeting and quite a number of them accepted Jesus as Lord and Saviour. Glory to God !
I encourage everybody to grab the opportunity to come to CKRM regularly to be anointed, always be spiritually hungry and don’t give up; open your mouth and arms to receive the blessings of God.
Matthew 7:7-8
Ask, Seek, Knock
7"Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 8For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.
I hereby thank God’s anointed servants, Pastor Paul and Pastor Esther, and also the brothers and sisters in Christ for their love, care and help. All Glory to Jesus !!!
2003年，主给我一个先知性的话语，他要将他的灵浇灌在马六甲。到时马六甲会有一个很大的复兴。2004年，主用异象向我启示祂对马六甲的计划。在异象中我看到一间很小的圣所慢慢的变成很大很大的圣所。当时我还在从商，根本没想到神是在对我说活，也从没想过神要用我。
2008年，神启示要用 CKRM 在马六甲成立一间超自然事工训练学校，有如美国比尔强生超自然事工训练学校的模式(Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry) 。 一直到2009年1月1日。主说是时候了，现在进入马六甲开始这事工。
靠主的恩典，我们就顺服，凭信心踏出去。神很奇妙的带领整个筹备过程，不到两个月的时间就把一切安排好。祂还给我们一个很漂亮的圣所。我们都不需要装修就可以开始启用。感谢主！
若不是耶和华建造房户，建造的人就枉然劳力。若不是耶和华看守城池，看守的人就枉然警醒 （诗篇127：1）。
现在我们宣布 CKRM 马六甲超自然事工训练学校正式开始投入服务。详情如下：

Launching of CKRM Malacca Ministry - The Malacca Vision
In 2003, the Lord gave me a prophetic word about His coming out-pouring in Malacca. In 2004, the Lord showed me a vision of of His plan. It was a small ministry full of glory grown to a large ministry. However, during that time, I was still a businessman. So I did not expect that the Lord was revealing to me His calling upon my life for the Malacca Vision.Last year, the Lord revealed that CKRM is called to set up a School of Supernatural Ministry in Malacca to be model after Bill Johnson's Bethel School of Supernatural Ministry. On 1st January 2009, the Lord commanded us that it is now God's time to proceed with the plan.
Within a short pace of two months, the ministry was set up. The Lord also led us to a beautiful sanctuary where we need not have to do any renovation at all.

灵命复兴
我要和大家分享上帝怎样恩待我。
我是慧莲，是在12月2008年参加了CKRM“权能侍奉”的聚会。在这之前，我是一位不良少女，身心充满罪恶，不饶恕和沮丧。
我是在Trinity Christian Centre接受主，当时是10岁，15岁在Hope of God被圣灵充满。但是我后退了，原因是观念的差别，我从没经历过被神触摸。
从15至24岁，9年当中我过的是挣扎，沮丧和甚至于倾向自杀的生活。得知CKRM是从马克弟兄口中诉说他在CKRM怎样被 神触摸和生命的翻转。认识马克已许多年，知道他的背景与困境。他能有这样的改变，叫我即好奇又兴奋的要去CKRM，希望自已也能被神触摸，能有机会经历神。
从不知道神是那么美好，再不能想象的情况下，第一次参加聚会， 神就在我身上开始动工释放我。当提摩太弟兄在主圣灵恩膏临到他时，我不受控制从椅子上跌到地上，并开始不断呕吐， 虽然我满身是罪，慈爱的神并没有抛弃，我不理我。相反的神的恩膏不断降下，在 长达七小时后，我终于很大被释放，当时也有好几位弟兄姐妹为我祷告赶去邪灵。
因着我身上的罪孽，神还是施下他那怜悯慈爱来触摸我。
在Ps Paul和 Ps Esther不断的向主恳求施下更多的圣火，我不但被倒空，被洁净，我也能开始领受圣灵的能力。 感谢主！我会继续来CKRM领受神的洁净与能力。
我的灵再次的被圣火点燃，并提升了敏锐度，圣灵的第一次彰显在我身上。现在的我是带着满满的信心来教会。我找到了生命的真正意义，就是为耶稣而活，不论世界有多恐怖复杂，我已不害怕，我知道要信靠耶稣，因他已在我生命掌权。
在这两个月里，神在我生命的工作没有间断, 我的父母也察觉我的改变，甚至有一天妈妈来问我那来的玫瑰香味，从厨房弥漫到客厅一整晚。我告诉她说那是耶稣爱的芳香。
神不但大大的祝福我的生活，同时也祝福我的经济，在投资上也给于帮助，我现在不能全工作，因为我还是全职学生；我凭着信心给于十一奉献，祈求神来看顾我的一切。祂是听祷告的神，在我的投资上的利润在2个月内上升了3次， 从10%至18%到6%。
感谢赞美主，翻转我的生命，带给我希望，把悲哀化为喜乐。
神是信实的，Amen.

Revival of my Spiritual life
I would like to share a testimony of God's goodness to me.
My name is Hui Lian and I began to attend CKRM Sat Empowerment Ministry in the month of Dec 2008. Back then I was a backslider and under the bondage of sin, unforgiveness and depression.
I came to accept God when I was 10 years of age at Trinity Christian Centre, and was filled with the Holy Spirit at the age of 15 at Hope of God. But due to the belief system of the church I attended back then, I had never experienced deliverance.
Hence I struggled for 9 years of my life from the age 15 to 24 with suicide and depression. I came to know of CKRM through Brother Mark, as I knew him for many years, I knew of his struggles so when he told me that CKRM had touched and changed him, I was so excited and decided to come to CKRM with an open heart.
I never expected God to deliver me when I first came to CKRM. When the presence of God and His glory came upon Brother Timothy, I manifested right there in my chair. This lead to a 7 hour deliverance, where everyone in CKRM prayed and started to cast out all the demons.
I was touched by God for He has shown His mercy, despite all my sins and shortcomings.
Through Pastor Paul and Pastor Esther who kept calling down the fire of God, I was cleansed and empowered. I continue to attend services in CKRM to be further cleansed and empowered.
After that, I was ready to receive my first impartation of God's anointing. This rekindled my spiritual zeal and sensitivity for Jesus and I began to attend church service faithfully. I found my purpose in God and even though fear and terror may grip the world, I know everything is going to be alright as God is in control now.
God's hand has moved so powerfully in my life over the course of 2 months, that even my parents notice the change in me. My mother even came up to me and asked me what was the sweet rose scent that was coming out from the kitchen the whole night. And as I began to explain to her that it was the sweet presence of Jesus, the scent began to fill the entire house again.
The Lord has also blessed me financially; as I am a full time student therefore I am therefore not working. Hence as I began to tithe faithfully and I pray and ask God to protect and watch over every area of my life, the Lord turned my investments around. In the last week of January, He grew my investment by 10%. 1st week of Feb by another 18%, 2nd week of Feb by another 6%! Praise God! I want to thank God for changing my life around. He has given me hope when I was hopeless. He has exchanged my sorrow for His joy. The Lord is indeed faithful. Praise God!

Delivered from playing Computer Warfare Game - by Geraldine Tan
Last Sunday, I brought my 14 year old son to CKRM for the Youth Service.
During Ministry time, when Pastor Paul started to pray for him, he started to feel cold and shivered and that was the first time he fell under the Power of God. One of the co-workers was quick to identify the demonic graphic on the t-shirt he wore was a barrier for him to receive deliverance. After he took out the t-shirt, the deliverance went very smooth for him.
On the same day when he went back, he was obedience to delete the software from his computer. All Praise and Glory to God.

我怎么也没想到来到CKRM是神的安排，也是我服侍新季节的开始。
在太太的带领下，我前年尾第一次来到CKRM ,记得那是一个星期六的下午，他们称为权能事奉。这是我第一次看见圣灵恩赐的彰显，如 犹大狮子的吼叫，老鹰的彰显，等等。还有其他恩赐的彰显是我以前从来没有见过的。同时被一位弟兄向我说出知慧的言语所感动，因他所说的正是我当时的光景。
我也第一次接受保罗牧师的服侍，也是第一次被圣灵击倒在地上，我觉得被神触摸 那感觉真好。这对我来说是一个突破，因为在这之前我是不大愿意到讲台前接受牧者的祷告。其中一个缘因是骄傲的心态，觉得自己不需要被服侍。后来 终于明白，被服侍也是一种祝福，以往不正切的心态让自己失去许多祝福。
我被这里的服侍所吸引，若不是亲身经历，我还真难相信所发生的事情，看到圣灵极大的作为，无论是敬拜或祷告，当圣灵来时，总是有奇妙的事情发生，我太太也一样，几乎每个星期都到，常常听到许多的见证， 很多人的生命被改变，被更新，有病得医治，邪灵被赶出去，得释放，很多弟兄姐妹被圣灵充满，灵命被挑旺，领受各种属灵恩赐，传福音时感觉更有能力，愈渴慕的，领受越多，当然也包括我本人，感谢主把圣灵的能力降在我身上彰显有如打雷闪电一样。（哈巴谷书3：4）
记得不久前我太太发高烧，我就凭着信心为她宣告她的烧就退了感谢主！
过了不久，按着神的旨意，开始了华语的聚会，感谢神的恩典让我们夫妇能参以服侍，也藉着这些服侍让我们有机会学习操练神所给我们的恩赐，我们也进一步融入CKRM 的事工中，也从一名会众变成 同工。成为 CKRM 的同工，让我再一次被装备和提升。在这里让我看到牧者和同工，在圣工上，无论大小，凡事都先祷告，寻求神的旨意，以及他们在灵里的那种敏锐，与神关系的密切是我以前没见过的。
在不断领受恩膏之下，果然看到工作的果效不同了。服侍更有信心。有一次为一位印尼的姐妹祷告，靠神的恩典，神把她带到天堂去，她醒来后在天堂所闻，印证神的真实，神是真实的。
在不断领受恩膏之下，我发觉在我预备信息时更有亮光，更有神的话语，还有在写歌，填词方面，神也给我更多的恩膏。自从来了CKRM 我也感觉到在写歌填词方面，进度也比以前快多了。感谢赞美神，祂是伟大的创作者，我只不过是祂的抄写员。把从祂那里领受的写出来。一切荣耀都归给祂。
蒙神的恩典，去年年中被按立为牧师负责方言事工，我乃是带着战战兢兢的心情领受神的恩典。深恐自己还有软弱不足之处，有负神所托，告诉自己唯有更多仰望，更多依靠，更多鞭策自己，更努力学习充实自己，更尽心尽意的事奉他。
过去一年，神在多方面装备我们夫妇领受不同的恩赐，神也通过异梦告诉我要带很多的老人进来 。今年2009是时候了，我们夫妇要全心全意回应神对我们的呼召，满足他的心，感谢主！
奇妙的神奇妙的带领，让我经历一段奇妙蒙召的过程，也让我在过去一年经历属灵生命丰收的一年，愿将一切荣耀权柄颂赞都归给他。

I never thought that coming to CKRM is God’s arrangement, and the beginning of a new season of serving.
Under the leading of my wife, I went to CKRM for the first time at the end of 2007. I remembered that it was a Saturday afternoon and CKRM was running an Empowerment ministry. It was the first time I saw the manifestations of the gifts of the Holy Spirit; manifestations such as the roar of the Lion of Judah, the prophetic eagle etc. There were also other manifestations which I have not seen before. I was also touched by the words of wisdom spoken by a brother who correctly described what I was going through back then.
It was also the first time I was ministered by Pastor Paul and the first time I fell to the ground under the power of God. It felt really good to be touched by God. This was a breakthrough for me because prior to my visitation to CKRM, I was reluctant to go to the front to be prayed for by the pastors. My pride hindered me from receiving many blessings and impartation of gifts by the Holy Spirit. Subsequently, I finally understood that being ministered to is a form of blessing and my incorrect mentality has caused me to miss out on many blessings in the past.
I was drawn to the ministry in CKRM. If not for my own experience, I would find it incredible to believe the amazing work of the Holy Spirit. Be it worship or prayer, whenever the Holy Spirit comes, wonderful things will happen. My wife who attended CKRM almost every week, heard and witnessed plenty of testimonies of lives of many people transformed, the sick getting healed, deliverance from evil spirits and many brothers and sisters being filled with the Holy Spirit. Many of them were imparted with various gifts of the Holy Spirit and felt more effective when spreading the Gospel. Those with greater hunger receive even more, and that includes me. I received the lighting anointing as described in Hab. 3:4. Praise God !
Some time ago, my wife was down with high fever. I prayed for her by faith and her fever was gone! Praise God ! Shortly after, according to God’s will, CKRM started a Chinese church service. By the grace of God, my wife and I became part of this ministry. It provided us the opportunity to learn and practice the gifts of the Holy Spirit while we served. Through serving, we also got more and more involved in the ministry in CKRM and eventually served as ministers there. As a minister in CKRM, I was again equipped and raised by God. Here in CKRM, I saw the pastors and workers seeking the will of God in all things big or small in the ministry. Their level of sensitivity and intimacy with the Holy Spirit was something I have never seen before in the past.
As the anointing increased, I receive even more revelations and God’s word as I prepare my sermons. God has also increased my anointing in song writing and I could do it more quickly than before. Praise God for He is the great Creator and I am only a vessel who pen down what I receive from Him. All glory to God !
By the grace of God, I was ordained as a pastor for the Hokkien/Cantonese church service in mid 2008. I continue to work out my salvation with fear and trembling, fearing that my flaws will let God down even as I served. I told myself that I have to cast my eyes even more on God, lean even more on Him, discipline myself even more, learn and enrich myself even more and ultimately, serve God with more of my heart.
Over the past one year, God has empowered my wife and I with various spiritual gifts. God has also prompted us to bring more elderly to church through the dreams we had at night. 2009 is the year where my wife and I will fully devote ourselves to the calling God has placed in our lives. We want to please Him … praise God.
Under the wonderful leading of a wonderful God, I experience the wondering process of being called, and had a very enriching spiritual life in 2008. All glory, authority and praise to God !!!

那天從姐姐口中得知Sarah(我的外甥女)在學 校 跌倒，她傷勢嚴重，而醫生也告知要有心里準備或許要把其中一個腎去除。我們不知如何是好，愚蠢的思想到處去求問其他的神。感謝耶穌的帶領， 從外甥女自己的口中說她要耶穌。而我也開始向耶穌禱告求他來保守Sarah的生命，只要耶穌肯醫治，我說出愿將自己獻上。神跡奇事發生了，醫治降臨，在3個月內Sarah就康復了。
因這件事情的發生，我也和家人一起去教會做禮拜。奇怪的感覺在我的內心，我并不知道這是什么，曾參加好些聚會總是不能融入，我內心的渴慕總是不能得到滿足，我內心的聲音說我要突破。神跡奇事又發生在我身上，透過一位姐妹把我帶到CKRM，經過牧師們的潔凈禱告，我開始被神的靈充滿并嘔吐釋放。
在洗禮當日，神的靈大大的充滿我，不但一直在跳舞敬拜，口中不停在叫喊 “Jesus, I love you”。
哈利路亞，這是神的旨意，因那一句“我愿將自己獻上”，他要透過我來傳揚他的道，我這個器皿要被他使用。CKRM是神的殿，我心的渴慕被滿足，我感謝天父，我已突破！我已突破！！我的父母也突破了，不但接受了耶穌為救主，也把家中的偶像移走。
腓立比書2：5 “你們當以基督耶穌的心為心”
Thank you Lord. Thank you for your love grace and mercy. I pray that more and more people will come to know you and feel your heartbeat! Amen!
