A miracle is the occurrence of any event apparently contradictory to and unexplainable by the laws of science and usually attributed to God.
For what reasons does God generally perform miracles in our midst?
A. Miracles serve as a confirmation of a person's ministry or message.
1. The minister (person), that he is sent by God.
Exodus 4:3-9, 30:7:10, 12 Numbers 16:28-35 I Samuel 12:17, 18 I Kings 17:24 Mark 9:39; 16:17-18 John 3:2:6:14, 36; 11:42 Acts 2:22 2 Corinthians 12:12
2. The message (word), that it is from God.
Exodus 4:3-9, 30; 7:10, 12 Judges 6:11-21 I Kings 17:24; 18:37-39 2 Kings 20:8-11 Matthew 11:2-5 Mark 16:20 John 5:36 Acts 2:22; 8:6 Hebrews 2:3-4
B. In the Old Testament, signs or wonders served as evidence of the one true God.
Exodus 7:17 Deuteronomy 4:35 Joshua 2:11 1 Kings 18:24, 37-39 2 Kings 5:15, 17 Daniel 3:28, 29
C. God performs miracles to meet the needs of His people.
Exodus 14:22 (the parting of the Red Sea, to save God's people in time of trouble) Exodus 16:4-31 (manna fell from the sky, that God's people might be fed in the wilderness) Exodus 17:5, 7 (water came from a rock, to quench their thirst) I Kings 17:4-7 (ravens fed Elijah during famine) I Kings 17:10-16 (the widow's cruse of oil and barrel of meal never emptied, during time of famine) 2 Kings 2:19-22 (the waters were sweetened) 2 Kings 4:38, 40-41 with Mark 16:18 (eating of poisonous food not harmful to His people) 2 Kings 4:42-44 (100 people fed in famine with a small portion of food) Matthew 16:8-10, etc. (thousands fed with the small amount of food available) John 2:1-11 (water was turned to wine at. a wedding feast) Acts 28:3-6 with Mark 16:18; Luke l0:19 (a poisonous snake bite un harmful to believers)
D. Miracles increase our faith.
John 2:11, 23; 4:53:7:31; 11:45;20:30-31 Numbers 14:11 Acts 9:42
E. God sends them sometimes as judgment upon the unjust.
1. The plagues, etc. – Moses and Pharaoh. Exodus chapters 7-12
2. Elijah and the drought of several years. I Kings 17:1, 14, etc.; 18:1, 42-45 Luke 4:25-26 James 5:17, 18
3. Hailstones sent in battle against the enemy. Joshua 10:11
4. The sun standing still during battle. Joshua 10:12-14
5. The waters turned to blood; a drought pronounced upon the land – the two witnesses of Revelation. Revelation 11:5-6
However, it must be recognized that Satan can also perform lying (counterfeit) signs & wonders. Not everything supernatural is of God.
Exodus 7:9-11, 8:17-19, Deuteronomy 13:1-5, Matthew 24:24, Mark 13:22, 2 Thessalonians 2:9, Revelation 13:13-14, 16:14, 19:20.
Satan could also do signs & wonders up to about 30% of what our God could do. The Pharaoh’s magicians could not do when Moses at the 4th level of miracle, struck the ground and throughout Egypt the dust became gnats. Exodus 8:18, “But when the magicians tried to produce gnats by their secret arts, they could not. And the gnats were on men and animals. Verse 19: The magicians said to Pharaoh, “This is the finger of God…”

马六甲CKRM 第一季报告-第一部份
第一部分: 神的国度是一个有能力的国度。神迹奇事和百般的异能 – 约耳弟兄
所谓奇事是指对科学法律相反和无法解释的事件, 而且一般是属于神的作为。
为什么神通常在我们当中行奇事?
A. 奇事乃是对个人事工或讯息的印证。
1. 印证那仆人是神所差派的。
出埃及记4: 3-9,30; 7: 10,12; 民数记 16: 28-35;撒母耳记上 12: 17, 18;列王纪上 17: 24;马可福音 9: 39; 16: 17-18;约翰福音3: 2; 6: 14, 36; 11: 42;使徒行传2: 22;哥林多后书 12: 12
2. 印证祂仆人所传的道。
出埃及记4: 3-9, 30; 7: 10,12; 士师记 6:11-21; 列王纪上17:24; 18:37-39; 列王纪下 20:8-11; 马太福音11:2-5; 马可福音 16:20; 约翰福音5:36; 使徒行传 2:22; 8:6; 希伯来书 2:3-4
B. 在旧约里,神借着神迹奇事来见证祂是独一无二的真神。出埃及记 7:17; 申命记 4:35; 约书亚记 2:11; 列王纪上18:24; 37-39; 列王纪下 5:15; 但以理书 3:28-29
C. 神行奇事来满足祂子民的需要。
出埃及记14:22 (打开红海拯救在患难中的子民);出埃及记 16:4-31 (吗 哪从天上降下,喂饱在旷野中神的子民);出埃及记 17:5-7 (水从磐石里流出来,为他们解渴); 列王纪上 17:4-7 (在饥荒时刻,乌 鸦喂养了以利亚);列王纪上 17:10-16 (在饥荒时刻,寡妇坛内的面不减少,瓶里的油也不缺短);列王记下2:19-22 (恶 劣的水被治好);列王记下4:38, 40-41, 马可福音16:18 (吃了有毒的食物却不受任何伤害);列王记下4:42-44 (在饥荒时刻,一点的食物却足够给百人吃);马太福音16:8-10 (少许的食物足够分给好几千人);约翰福音2:1-11(在一个筵席里,水变成了酒);使徒行传28:3-6,马可福音16:18, 路加福音 10:19 (信徒被蛇咬却不受伤害)
D. 奇事加增我们的信心
约翰福音2:11, 23; 4:53; 7:31; 11:45; 20:30-31; 民数记 14:11; 使徒行传 9:42
E. 神有时以奇事来审判不公义的人
1. 十灾 – 摩西和法老。(出埃及记 7-12 章)
2. 以利亚和三年零六个月的旱灾。(列王纪上17:1, 14; 18:1, 42-45;路加福音 4:25-26; 雅各书 5:17-18)
3. 天上降大冰雹打死仇敌 (约书亚记 10:11)
4. 在争战时,日头在天当中停住(约书亚记 10:12-14)
5. 启示录里的两 个见证人能叫天闭塞不下雨,又有权柄叫水变为血 (启示录 11:5-6)然而,我们必须辨认撒 但能够模仿我们真神的神迹奇事。 不是一切超自然都出至于神的作为。出埃及记 7:9-11; 8:17-19; 民数记 13:1-5; 马太福音24:24; 马可福音 13:22; 帖撒罗尼迦后书 2:9; 启示录 13:13-14;16:14; 19:20
与我们真神的神迹奇事相比,撒但最多只能模仿到三成的能力。当摩西在第四层的奇事时 - 击打地上的尘土 , 使尘土在埃及遍地变作虱子, 那些在法老身边行法术的却不能够模仿。出埃及记 8:18 行法术的也用邪术要生出虱子来,却是不能。於是在人身上和牲畜身上都有了虱子。第十九节: “行法术的就对法老说:这是神的手的作为。。。。。。
Prior to attending CKRM:
I, Chia Chong Hon was born in 1966. I am currently 43 yrs old and received Christ as my saviour at the age of 30. I have a good wife and three lovely children and we live in Klang. I was in sales till I became a full-time worker in church at the age of 38. I was in-charge of leading cell groups and discipleship of new believers. I am happy with the salary offered by the church and the pastor treated me well. I am also pleased with my ministry because I led a lot of people to Christ and miracles, signs and wonder followed me. However, after a year in ministry, the inner peace and joy in my heart was suddenly gone. I prayed 3 months about it but the inner peace and joy was not restored. In order to seek the divine peace of God, I quitted my job by faith and stayed at home to wait upon God.
In the 1st year, I steadfastly prayed, read the bible, fasted and seek God. In the 2nd and 3rd year, I began to seek God in ministries such as businessman fellowship and foreign worker ministry. In the 4th year, due to disappointment with God, I became a Christian who no longer read the bible, pray, seek God or attend church as I felt that God has abandoned me. But my heart yearned for God everyday like one who yearns for a lost lover of many years.
While attending CKRM:
On 25 April 2009, through Sis. Susan, God brought me to CKRM Malacca’s leadership training camp. This is the 1st time I saw Pst. Paul and Pst. Esther’s ministry. I saw manifestations which I have never seen before (the roar of the Lion of Judah, the stone of David, the sword of the Spirit) Naturally, I doubted these manifestations and wondered if they are of the Holy Spirit but I dare not criticize the work of the Holy Spirit. That day, I didn’t receive the anointing and just returned home.
I took part in the 2-day Joshua camp on the 1st and 2nd May. More than 40 participants from Singapore came and because of their involvement, I saw even more manifestations of the Holy Spirit (Shepherd dog, carry the cross, prophesy, speaking in foreign tongues …). I still didn’t receive anything. I was thinking, if this is not of God, it will be better not to have it. But if it’s from the Holy Spirit and since He doesn’t want me to have it, there isn’t much I can do either. After lunch on the 2nd day, I sat alone at one corner. Suddenly, I was filled with the Holy Spirit and I made a soft groaning sound similar to that of a lion which spotted prey. In my heart, I wanted to roar but I didn’t dare to do so. During the last lesson, Pst. Paul asked who has received the power of God for the 1st time so I went to the front. When Pst. Paul stretched out his hands toward me, the Holy Spirit caused me to roar like a lion with all my might. In my heart, I knew God has delivered me. Thank God, those who yearn for God will not hope in vain.
After attending CKRM:
Now, I go to CKRM Malacca every Saturday to be empowered, as to prepare myself for ministry in future. What change after I attend CKRM? (Good tree bears good fruit)
1) Nowadays, I read the bible like I used to, pray and is moved by the Holy Spirit at dawn to fellowship with Him.
2) The inner peace and joy is gradually being restored unto me.
3) My faith has increased(Even if I endure another 4 years of hardship, I will still praise God, Hallelujah)
4) There is more power when I minister because the spiritual giftings and anointing I received from CKRM is still functional when I return to Klang.
我在CKRM的见证
----------------------
没来 CKRM之前
本人谢松汉在一九六六年出世,今年四十三岁。三十岁时接受耶稣基督成为个人的救主。我有一个好妻子,三个好孩子,住在吧生。原本的职业是销售员,三十八岁成为教会全职同工。在教会我是负责新人陪训和带领小组。教会给的薪金我很满意,牧师也对我很好。我也很满意自己的事奉,
因为我带领了很多人信主又有神迹奇事跟随着我。但是在我服事一年后,突然我的内心失去平安和喜乐。我为这事祷告了三个月,还是内心没有平安和喜乐。为了寻回属天的平安,我就评着信心辞职,回家等候神。在家第一年很坚定的祷告、读经、禁食的寻求神。第二年和第三年我开始在外面的事工(商人团契、外劳事工)寻求神。第四年因对神的失望,我成为一个不读经、不祷告、不寻求神、不去教会的基督徒,因我认为神已经放弃了我。但我的心天天都思念着神,就像失去相恋很多年的爱人一样。
在CKRM时
神通过SUSAN姐妹在四月25日2009年,把我带到马六甲的CKRM领袖训练营。这是我第一次看到PS.PAUL与PS. ESTHER的服事。我看到圣灵充满所彰显出我从来没有见过的现象(犹大狮子的吼叫、大卫的石子、圣灵的宝剑) 。理所当然我会怀疑这些现象是不是圣灵的彰显,但我也不敢冒犯圣灵的作为。当天我没有领受任何圣灵的恩膏,就这样回家了。
我参加了5月1-2日的约书亚营。有四十多位从新加坡的弟兄姐妹也前来参加。因为他们的参与,第一天我看到更多圣灵的彰显(牧羊狗、背十字架、说豫言、说别国话。。。。)。我还是没有领受,所以我想如果这不是从神而来的,不要是好的。如果是来自圣灵,圣灵不要给我,我也不能做什么。
第二天的午餐后,我独自一人坐在一个角落。突然我被圣灵充满,口中发出低微狮子的鼻声,像狮子见到猎物一样。我的心里想大声吼叫,但又不敢。到了最后一堂课,PS. PAUL问谁第一次领受神的大能,我就去到前面。当PS. PAUL 把手伸向我时,圣灵使我用尽全身的力量像狮子般大声吼叫。我心里知道我被神释放了。感谢神,对神有所渴慕的,必永不落空。
来了CKRM之后
现在我每个星期六都到马六甲CKRM 接受装备,为以后的事奉而准备。去了CKRM后我有什么改变呢? (好树结好果子)
1) 现在我又能像以前一样读经、祷告、凌晨圣灵感动我起来灵修。
2) 我内在的平安和喜乐也渐渐恢复了。
3) 我的信心增加了。(再来四年的磨练我也能哈利路亚赞美主)
4) 服事人的力量也加增了,因为在CKRM所领受的恩赐和恩膏就算回到吧生也一样可以发挥功效祝福他人。
谢松汉
My journey started when my dad came back from Joshua Camp on 1st May 2009. He was excited and told us (my mom & I) about how he saw the Power of God moved in the camp. He said that the pastor did not even lay hands on any one but they were slained. Dad asked me to go to CKRM on the next day. I really wanted to study since my final exams will be in 2 weeks time. So I make a deal with him. If the meeting is not interesting, I will want to go back during lunch break. That was my plan.
I reached there about 9am on 2nd May 2009. During the morning session of Joshua camp, what amazed me was when Pastor Paul called out 7 people to sit in front facing the audience. All these 7 individuals are highly sensitive to the Holy Spirit. They were there to confirm Pastor Paul’s words. I was amazed because all of them manifested in different ways but they can agree on the same things. It was something I have never seen before in my life.
Bro. Timothy was in charge for the afternoon session. The meeting started with the Fire Anointing. While I was focusing on God, my hands started to shake. At one point, I felt like someone was covering my ears with warm hands. My body was trembling and I was screaming my lungs out. I did not know what was happening to me. Later, I fell down on my seat. I was really exhausted.
Next, Pastor Esther was in charge of the 2nd half of the afternoon session. She was explaining the difference between the gift of prophecy and the calling of to be a prophet of God. When she finished the session, Pastor Paul called me up. He said that God has given me the gift of prophecy. I lifted my hands up and received it. Later, I was down on the floor. My hands were shaking and my body was trembling. At one point, I was happy and laughing very loudly. I have never laughed so loudly in public before. It was the Joy of the Holy Spirit. I soon discovered that I was confirming Pastor Paul’s words by nodding my head while I was on the floor. I was truly blessed in the meeting.
When I was at home, I recalled that a visiting prophet who came to my church in February 2008. Pastor Thomas Cheng anointed my ears and prophesied that God has given me a gift. At that time, he did not say what the gift was about. About a year after God begin to confirm the gift he mentioned to me. Indeed, I have been truly blessed by my 1st visit to CKRM Melaka on 2nd May 2009. I have encountered the Lord and the Holy Spirit. I count myself blessed to be chosen by the Lord at such an early age of 20 in a couple of days’ time. I hope that all the young people of my generation will have a hunger for the things of God and believe that God will reveal his plan and purpose for their lives.
"Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks, the door will be opened.” Matthew 7:7-8

How Lingli
----------------------------------------------
Pastor’s Footnote:- The rapid spiritual growth within a short period is indeed awesome for Sis Lingli and she has been attending the CKRM Saturday Meeting faithfully since her 1st encounter with God at the Joshua Camp. God has called CKRM to set up a School of Supernatural in Malacca.
At the recent Prophetic Conference held at the Church in Malacca where Lingli attends, Ps Thomas Cherian, an anointed prophet from India very much like the prophet Samuel of the Bible gave a word to Sis Lingli that God has given her a gift and that she is attending some sort of training in School of Supernatural. He couldn’t have known about CKRM, least about Lingli attending the supernatural ministry, if the Lord has not revealed to him.
-----------------------------------------------
踏进马六甲CKRM已经有三十一天了,旅程的开始是从我父亲在五月一日;参加了约书亚营回家后开始。那天他兴奋的向我和母亲诉说神的大能如何在营中运行。他说牧师为人祷告时没有按手在任何人的身上,但是人们仍然被击倒在地上。父亲叫我隔天去CKRM 。但是在两个星期后,我有年终考试,所以我想在家复习功课。于是, 我与父亲立约。如果聚会淡然无趣, 我就会在午餐时间回家。那就是我的计划。
我在二零零九年五月二日大概早上九点抵达哪儿。约书亚营早上的时间是教导圣火的恩膏,由保罗牧师教导。 让我感到惊讶的是: 一开始保罗牧师先叫七个人出来坐在讲台下面大家面前。(他们都面向会众)这七个人的灵对圣灵非常敏锐。他们坐在哪儿印证保罗牧师所说的话。让我惊讶的是:虽然他们每个人的彰显都不同, 但他们都在不同的事物上有同样的认同。这是我一生从未曾见过的。
提摩太弟兄负责下午的部份。聚会一开始就谈到圣火的恩膏。当我专心仰望神时,忽然发现我的手开始颤抖。在其中一段时间, 我觉得似乎有人用温热的手盖住我的耳朵。我的身体在不断发抖,同时我不断大声地喊叫。我不知道在我身上发生了什么事。后来我筋疲力尽的躺卧在坐椅上。
接着, 以斯帖牧师负责下午剩下的时间。她解释先知启示性的恩赐与先知的呼召是有分别的,是不一样的。她教导完后, 保罗牧师把我叫出来。他说神给了我先知启示性的恩赐。我举起手来领受。接着, 我发现自已躺卧在地上。而我的手不断在颤抖,而身体在发抖。有一段时间, 我感到喜乐,并且大声地笑。我从来没有在公共场所那么大声笑过。那是圣灵的喜乐在我身上。当我躺卧在地上时,我发现自已很自然会点头印证保罗牧师所说的话语。真的,神在这个营会非常祝福了我,我非常的蒙福。
在家中, 我想起在二零零八年二月时有一位先知名叫 Thomas Cheng的拜访我的教会。Thomas Cheng 牧师恩膏我的耳朵并且向我发预言说神给了我一个恩赐。当时, 他没说是什么恩赐。一年后, 神开始向我印证 那预言。确实, 我在二零零九年五月二日首次拜访马六甲CKRM 是很蒙福的。我与主与圣灵相遇了。二十岁的我觉得自己很蒙福, 年纪轻轻的,在几天里就被神拣选。我希望我这一代的年轻人对神的事物有渴望。我也相信神会显明祂在我们生命里的计划和意义。
"你们祈求,就给你们;寻找,就寻见;叩门,就给你们开门。因为凡祈求的,就得着;寻找的,就寻见;叩门的,就给他开门 “。马太福音7:7-8

How Lingli
I was a non-believer when Celeste first brought me to CKRM church. I was very skeptical of everything. I thought the power ministry was like a movie, it was as if when i walked into the church, someone at the door declare ' camera!' and the whole 'movie' started playing.
However, I gradually started to have better faith in God. It was because during the initial period of believing in God that certain small things that i prayed for, did happen. 50% of me, was probably trying to 'test' God to see if He is real.
Right now, i have to believe that the Lord is very real because He helped me stopped smoking!I have been smoking for the past 13 years and I know that if I would to quit on my own, it would be a near impossible task, in fact I didn’t want to quit at all.
It was on a Wednesday night (20/05/09) at around 12am, I was in my room and for no particular reason I prayed to God to be with me and help me overcome my smoking, and so I started saying short prayer (about 2- 5mins). I said to Him : ' Dear God, i pray that you would help me overcome this slavery to cigarettes and give me 100% victory.
I would stop smoking for the next 7 days, and if I endure 7 days without smoking one stick of cig, I will pray to you Lord that you would take away my urge to smoke. However, I can't do it on my own, I need your help Lord especially during my 7 days of not smoking. I have faith that with your help, I will overcame the urge to smoke because I know You have always been faithful to your people, in your most holy and precious name Jesus, I pray, Amen.
Over the next few days, i was surprised that the urge to smoke was not that strong, even if my friends were smoking in front of me I could easily overcome the urge, and when there moments that I was afraid that the urge of smoking will overcome me, I called out our Lord's name Jesus and it worked! The urge would disappear gradually.
Up till now, I have not smoked and I thank God for being with me and I continue to pray that the Lord would be with me to overcome the urge of smoking. I could not have done it on my own, it is God's work and i have faith and believe that God would answer my prayers when I ask for help to quit smoking.
GOD IS GREAT!!! WOOOO HOOOOOO!!
Dearest Pastor Paul,
Thank you so much for your encouragement. The anointing has changed me totally. It has created in me a deeper longing for God and His presence.
The anointing was so great at the fellowship table last Saturday. When you asked me to pray “Lord I call the anointing for a bolt of lightning upon me” I felt like my body was going to “explode.” It was an experience no words can describe. It was so much that I had to call my sisters and brothers in Christ to come and receive the overflowing anointing from me! All who came, freely they received. Freely I received, freely I gave. Even my wife received and she began to tremble when the Glory of God fell upon her. When I held her hand the second time, she fell under the Power of the Holy Spirit.
I begin to walk in awareness of the Lord. The desire to watch television has decreased and when I watch I begin to be selective. Any scene that portrays things which are not of God I will not watch. There is an uneasiness in me if I continue to watch.
I begin to want more of God. As you mentioned in your article “The Fire Anointing and its Purpose”, you said the fire will draw our hearts back to our first love. The fire of God is awesome as it begins to purify my life and it creates in me a longing for God. I begin to discard habits and things which are unholy. I tried many times before this but just couldn’t find the strength to throw away all these things. Now I find that it is much easier, but there are still a lot of things to be dealt with. I begin to watch my words. If I have said anything not good, I quickly ask God for forgiveness. Begin to talk less or gossip about other people. I also begin to watch my heart and my mind.
Pastor, you continuously reminded us to treasure the anointing. Now I begin to understand why David Herzog said, “If you try to cast away darkness but you yourself are not full of light, chances are it will take a long time to do it. When you are full of the Glory of God, often one word from God will expel the darkness.” As in the Bible Jesus always used short commands like “Begone”, “Come out”, “Come” when he called Peter to walk on water, “Be still” etc. When I do not sense the presence of God in a Christian meeting I feel so miserable. With His presence it is so wonderful as we are having a Holy Spirit party at CKRM every week without fail.
Begin to feel the anointing is becoming stronger and stronger and it’s so effective. Now I just need to point at my daughter and she begins to tremble because she senses the anointing in her spirit. I am always looking forward for Saturday to go to His house to soak in His presence. As the Bible says, “In His presence there’s fullness of joy and in His right hand, there’s pleasure forever more.” Earma Brown shared that we must acknowledge our zeal. Anointing may have decreased, if we find ourselves not doing the things we first did. Decide today to repent and go back to your first love (Christ). Our Father God awaits us with open arms. I have never confessed and ask for forgiveness so much as I am doing now. Each week at CKRM I go with a repentant heart and God never fail to touch me.
I am so thankful to God for His Hands upon me and my family. Yesterday after watching my second son’s final project (Film and Animation degree in MMU at Cyberjaya) before graduation, he wrote that his project is dedicated to God, dad, mum, bro and sis. As I have deposited God in his life, I am so pleased to notice my son remembers God in the things he does even in his studies at Multimedia University. It is so important to acknowledge God in everything we do.
Blessings,
Deacon Joel How

He further wrote that after an encounter with the Living God at CKRM Malacca, everything else is no longer important.
A moment of favour from the Lord is better than a lifetime of labour. Deacon Joel had that favour at the Joshua Camp by the grace of God.

亲爱的保罗牧师,
感谢你的鼓励。神的恩膏完全改变了我, 使我对神和祂的同在更加渴慕。
上星期六, 圣灵的恩膏在我们茶桌交通时是如此强烈的同在。感谢主!当你叫我祷告 “主, 我求祢如闪电的恩膏降临在我身上” 时,我感到我的身体好像就要” 爆炸” 了。这个经历是没有言语可以形容的。恩膏的厚度强到我受不了必需分出去,不然就要爆炸。所以我敢快呼叫主里的兄弟姐妹来我这儿领受恩膏! 当我握着前来的弟兄姐妹的手时,恩膏就传递过去,他们都领受到恩膏。 圣灵大大地祝福我, 我也大大地祝福他人。就连我的妻子也领受恩膏, 就在神的荣耀里颤抖。当我第二次握她的手时, 她被圣灵的大能击倒在地上。
我开始在神的意识里行走。以往爱观看电视节目的欲望已不断减少,而我也挑选节目不随便观看。任何带有不属神东西的情景我就不看。如果继续看, 我就感到不自在。
我发现自己开始更加渴慕神。就如你在“ 圣火恩膏和它的用途” 这篇文章 提到圣火会将我们爱世界的心转回我们对神起初的爱。神的火开始洁净我的生命, 使我愈来愈渴慕神。真是神奇! 我开始丢弃不圣洁的习惯和事物。以前我也尝试过这样做,但始终找不到那个力量把它们丢掉。如今我觉得要丢弃这些东西比以往容易了,真是感谢主!但需要处理的事情还是很多。不知不觉我开始留意我的话语。如果说了不好的话语,我能马上知道并极快求神饶恕我。更少讲闲话或讲别人的是非。我开始警戒自己,保守我的心思意念。
牧师, 你一直在提醒我们要珍惜神的恩膏。我现在开始明白为什么。DAVID HERZOG 说过” 如果你试着赶走黑暗但你自己却没被光充满, 你将需要很长的时间才能赶走。但当你被神的荣耀充满时, 通常神的一句话就足够驱走黑暗。“在圣经里, 耶稣时常用很短的话如”离去”,” 出来”, 祂对彼得说” 来” 或” 安静” 。事情马上成就。现在当我在基督徒的聚会里感觉不到神的同在, 我就会感到难受。我渴慕在祂的同在里。
开始觉得恩膏越来越强而那恩膏是很有果效的。现在,我只需要指着我的女儿, 她就会在她的灵里感觉到。时时想往每个星期六在CKRM的聚会。在那里浸泡在圣灵的恩膏中,是何等享受,何等美好。就如圣经说的 :在祂的同在里满怀欢喜,而在他右手里, 喜乐永常在 。 “EARMA BROWN 说: 我们必须承认我们对神的热诚。如果我们没有继续,恩膏也许会减弱。今天就决定悔改,回到对主耶稣起初的初爱。我们的天父正敞开着双手等候欢迎你。在我生命里,我从没像现在这样,常常那么被感动要认罪和求神的饶恕。每个星期带着悔改的心去CKRM而神不断地感动我。
我很感谢神, 祂的手触动我和我的家人。昨日, 观看我第二个儿子毕业前的最后一部作品(戏剧与卡通文科 MMU 在 CYBERJAYA), 他写到这部作品是他献给神, 爸爸, 妈妈, 哥哥, 妹妹。因我在他的生命里存入神,我很高兴我的儿子在他学业里紧记着神。无论做什么都要紧记着神, 认同祂是何等的重要。
祝福
