After an encounter with God, I am a new person – Nathanael Tan / 与神相遇后, 我是个新造的人 - 拿但业

It was indeed a very sad moment of my life when the people whom I loved began to leave me one by one. Both my parents have passed away and to add salt to my wound my girlfriend broke off with me recently. This led me to great hurt and depression and I began to smoke and drink to bury my sorrow.

On 31st Aug 2009, I received a SMS from my eldest sister who was suffering from depression invited me to follow her to CKRM, where she received healing from God. I was very happy to know that she had recovered so I decided to join her after my trip back from Germany.

On 25 Sept 2009, this was the first time I stepped into CKRM; I felt the peace which I have never experienced for a very long time. During ministry time, many brothers and sisters were touched by Holy Spirit but not me. However I was happy to see my eldest sister was totally set free. This was a miracle and I started to have faith in God again because I had seen what the Lord had done to my sister. I started to recover from the sadness and I was able to quit smoking after 7 years with the power of God.

Ps Esther from CKRM gave me a personal ministry session on Monday fortnightly. I felt so thankful to God, for giving me this privilege. During the session, Ps Esther will pray for me, advice and guide me through bible study. I learned how to be obedient and submit myself to God. I really thanked God for giving me the chance to join CKRM which is like a big family of God where I could really feel the care and support from all the brothers and sisters in Christ.

In my company, God also did a miracle. I had a project which deadline was end of November, but due to the past incidents, I wasn’t able to focus on the work and complete it. Praise God! the boss from Munich extended the deadline to June 2010, where I would definitely have enough time to complete the project. Praise the Lord for helping me even though I didn’t pray, but God knew what I needed most. Besides this, whenever, I felt worry and in doubt, God would send people to minister.

On 14 November during the ministry in CKRM Melaka, God touched me and filled me with Holy Spirit. I fell to the floor, I held both of my hands very tight till my fingers started to turn purple and I couldn’t open my fingers. I felt so painful and cold. I realized that actually deep down my heart, I was still harboring hatred, anger and jealousy toward my ex girlfriend and my ex close friend. Then I begged God to give me a heart of forgiveness. Immediately, I was able to move my fingers. I knew God wanted me to learn that by holding on the past it would make me suffer more. On 15 November, I followed my sister to CKRM in Banting. I went to the altar when Ps Paul asked who wished to be baptized by the Holy Spirit. When Ps Paul said the Holy Spirit was coming to perform the baptism. I was filled by the Holy Spirit again. I fell on floor and I could feel that something was flowing into my body, I felt warm and heavy. Then my tongue started to move and make sounds that no one understood. I received the gift of tongue! I knew I was born again in the Spirit.

On 21 November, during the CKRM ministry, I was invited by Ps Esther to go to the front and she said God had prompted her to give me a Christian name, Nathanael, which mean “Given by God”. I was very happy to receive this meaningful Christian name which marked that day as a new page of my life where I finally started my new life with new name in the Kingdom of God.

Now when I looked back what had happened, actually God was always with me and he had never forsaken me although I was full of sin. Who am I to be able to receive so much love of God? If not because of God’s grace, I don’t think I would be able to go through the darkest moment of my life. My life has totally changed since last few months. In the past I would spend all my time in shopping center or cafe. But now, most of my times are in church. I am happy to be able to occupy my time in God’s presence. Although sometimes I still feel lonely but I do not feel afraid anymore because I know God has provided a much better life and will arrange a better partner for me. I really thank and praise God for what he had done to me. I believe with the help of God, I will fully recover from depression and become a stronger man. After an encounter with God I am a new person, (2 Corinthian 17) Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is new creation; old things have passed away; behold all things have become new. Hallelujah!

看着所爱的人接二连三的离开自己,确实是我生命里最难过的时刻。我的父母都已经去世了,而最近女友跟我分手的决定, 更是在我的伤口上撒盐。这为我带来了很大的伤害和使我掉入了忧郁的谷底。我开始以抽烟和喝酒来麻醉自己和隐藏内心的伤痛。



在二零零九年八月三十一日, 我接到我患有忧郁症大姐的手机简讯, 邀请我跟随她到CKRM因她在那里被神医治。我很高兴得知她已经康复,所以决定从德国回反后跟她一起去看看。

在二零零九年九月二十五日是我第一次踏入CKRM。我感受到很久都没有经历过的平安。聚会时, 很多弟兄姐妹都被圣灵充满,但我却例外。我很开心看见我的大姐完全被神释放。这确实是一个神迹。看见主在我大姐身上的作为,使我从新对神有了信心。我开始从忧中逐渐康复起来和靠着神的大能也戒掉了七年的烟瘾。

CKRM的以斯帖牧师每两个星期一会个别服事我。我很感谢神给我这格外的恩典。在那段时间里以斯帖牧师会为我祷告和通过查经辅导和指引我。我学会如何顺服和降服于神。我真的感谢神给我机会加入CKRM的大家庭因在那,我可以感受到主内弟兄姐妹们的关怀和支持。

神也在我的公司里行神迹。我手上的工程原本在十一月尾的期限必须完工,但因为过去的经历使我无法集中精神在所定的时间里完成工作。赞美主! 慕尼黑的老板竟把期限延迟到二零一零年六月,让我有足够的时间完成这工程。赞美主如此恩待我!我虽然没有为这事祷告,但是神知道我最需要什么。除此以外, 每当我感到担心疑惑时, 神总会差遣人来服事我。

在十一月十四日马六甲CKRM权能事奉聚会时, 以祂的大能和圣灵充满我。我躺在地上并且紧握双手直到我的手指头变紫色。我无法张开双手并且感到极其痛苦和冷。我发现我的内心深处对我的前女友和好友依然存有怨恨, 愤怒和嫉妒。我求神给我一颗原谅他们的心。之后我马上能张开紧握的双手。我知道神要我学习,紧紧抓住过去不放只会使我受更多折磨。在十一月十五日, 我跟随姐姐到CKRM万津教会。当保罗牧师问谁要领受圣灵时, 我去到台前。当保罗牧师说圣灵要来为众人施洗时, 我又再次被圣灵充满倒在地上。我感觉到有一股又热又重的力量流入我的体内。我的舌头开始懦动并且发出没人能理解的声音。我领受了方言的恩赐! 我知道我已经在灵里重生了。

在十一月二十一日聚会, 以斯帖牧师邀请我到前面并且说神启示她给我一个新名字叫拿但业, 意思是神所赐 我非常高兴能领受这么一个有意义的名字作为我生命在那天掀开新一页的标记。我终于以新的名字在神的国度里开始新的生命!

我回顾过去所发生的事, 纵然我沉迷在罪孽中,神依然与我同在没有撇弃我。我是谁竟能领受神如此深广的爱? 如果不是神的恩典, 我想我是无法遨过这生命里最黑暗的时刻。我的生命在过去的几个月里完全被改变。在以往, 我会把所有的时间花在百货商场或者咖啡厅里。如今, 我大多数的时间都在教会里。我感到高兴能把我的时间花在神的同在里。虽然我偶尔感到孤单但是我不再感到害怕,因为我知道神为我预备了更好的生活和一位更好的伴侣。我感谢与赞美神所赐予我的一切。我相信靠着神的帮助, 我会从忧郁中完全康复起来和成为一个更刚强的人。与神相遇后, 我是一个新造的人!若有人在基督里,他就是新造的人,旧事已过,都变成新的了。(歌林多后书5:17哈利路亚!


God's will to fill His House with His glory so His children will again shine in darkness / 神定意以祂的荣耀充满圣殿使祂的孩子在黑暗中再次绽放光芒

The Lord revealed to Debra Lowe, “there is a people that is rising ….. They are His unique and powerful breed, a company of anointed believers that are unstoppable. These precious ones are dedicated and set apart for His holy purposes. They respond only to His voice and they will not bow to man's voices.”

(http://victorgal.blogspot.com/2009/11/company-of-anointed-believers-debra.html  (A Company of Anointed Believers - Debra Lowe)

If you are called to be part of a revival team, don’t think that when the Holy Spirit starts moving, people are going to love you. Just like in the Book of Acts, when the noise of stirring and moving of the Spirit begins, so does persecution. People will accuse you of being a cult and speak evil about you. They will want to destroy you, like the history of past revival faced by people like John Wesley, the famous evangelist John Sung, and many others.

The religious leaders would spread gross lies and rumours about anointed men of God perhaps out of fear of losing some of their congregation to the person. However, Jesus told his disciples “Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me” (Matthew 5:11).

Professor Jack Deere wrote: “Think of the controversy that swirled around Jesus, then around the apostles, and since then around every major move of God in history. No man of God has carried a great anointing without having to bear the kind of accusations.”

Bill Johnson wrote: “Before the Messiah came, the religious leaders prayed for and taught about His coming. There was a worldwide stirring, even in a secular society, about something wonderful that was about to happen. And then in a manger in Bethlehem, Jesus was born.

The stargazers knew who He was and travelled a great distance to worship and give Him gifts. The devil also knew, and moved Herod to kill the first-born males in an attempt to stop Jesus’ plan to redeem mankind. After he failed, he tried to lure Jesus to sin with temptation in the wilderness. What is more startling is that this visitation of God did not escape the notice of the demon-possessed. Such was the man at the Gadarenes. When he saw Jesus, he fell down before Him in worship and was soon set free from his life of torment (Mark 5:6-8). Yet the religious leaders that prayed for His coming didn’t recognize Him when He came.

Paul and Silas preached the gospel through Asia Minor. The religious leaders said they were of the devil. But a demon-possessed fortune teller girl said they were from God (Acts 16:17). How is it that those who are thought to be spiritually blind are able to see, and those who were known for their insight didn’t recognize what God was doing?

History is filled with people who prayed for a visitation of God and missed it when it came. This happened even though some had a strong relationship with God.”

Pastor's Footnote:-
Some who are attending the 4th Joshua Camp on 27/28th November 09 have gone into fasting prior to the trip. However, for those who are attending the Joshua Camp for the first time, perhaps the article through the below link may be useful to prepare their hearts:-
http://pastorpaulang.blogspot.com/2009/09/power-of-clean-hand.html  (The Power of a Clean Hand / 圣洁手的大能 )
We cannot have the power of God without purity of priests (Revelation 1:6).
We recite the Lord’s Prayer almost daily. The last sentence of the Lord’s Prayer, “… for thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever and ever.”
Most Christians are contented when they arrive at the kingdom level. That is, when they are saved. However, the difficulty is crossing from the kingdom to His power & glory. For, “… without holiness no one will see the Lord” (Hebrews 12:14). At the burning bush, God told Moses, “Do not come any closer; take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy ground” (Exodus 3:5).

神定意以祂的荣耀充满圣殿使祂的孩子在黑暗中再次绽放光芒


主启示Debra Lowe说:“有一组人正被兴起…他们是祂独特和大能的品种, 一群势不可挡的恩膏信徒。这些宝贵的人全然献身于主,并且被神分别为圣。他们只回应神的声音而绝不向人低头。

(http://victorgal.blogspot.com/2009/11/company-of-anointed-believers-debra.html (一群恩膏的信徒 - Debra Lowe)

如果你被呼召成为复兴团队的一分子, 当圣灵开始运行时, 不要以为人们会喜爱你。 就如使徒行传所记载的, 当圣灵运行的浪潮和声响开始时, 逼迫也跟着开始。人们会诬蔑你是邪教,并且在言语上毁谤你。他们会设法毁灭你, 就如以往复兴历史里记载的约翰•卫斯理, 著名的传道人宋尚節博士和许多其他人所面对的一样。

有些宗教领袖或许因为害怕会失去他们的一些会友而撒播谣言和捏造谎言来伤害神恩膏的仆人。但是耶稣对祂的门徒说“人若因我辱骂你们,逼迫你们,捏造各样坏话毁谤你们,你们就有福了” (马太福音5:11)。

傑克迪爾博士写道: “想想围绕着耶稣的争论, 还有使徒们的遇际和之后在每个神大能运行的历史里,没有任何带着神极大恩膏的仆人不必承受类似的毁谤”。

比尔强生写到: “弥赛亚来临之前, 宗教的领袖祷告和教导祂的来临。那时全球骚动, 就连庸俗的社区, 也感觉有美好的事即将发生。就在伯利恒的马槽, 耶稣诞生了。

占星家知道祂是谁并且千里迢迢前去敬拜和献上礼物给祂。魔鬼也知道, 并且激动希律王杀害出世不久的长子以阻止耶稣救赎人类的计划。他失败后, 就试图在旷野里诱惑耶稣犯罪。更不可思议的是, 神的造访竟避不过被鬼附的人的注意力。就如那格拉森被鬼附的人。当他看见耶稣时, 他俯伏在祂面前敬拜并且不久后从生命的折磨中得释放 (马可福音 5:6-8)。然而,那些祷告祂来临的宗教领袖却在祂来时无法认出祂。

保罗和西拉在小亚细亚传福音。宗教领袖却说他们是来自魔鬼。但是一位被巫鬼附的占卜女子却说他们是至高神的仆人 (使徒行传 16:17)。为何那些被认为是灵里盲目的能看见, 反之那些被认为应有属灵见解的人,却不晓得神在做什么?

历史里充满着祷告呼求能与神相遇的人,但当神到访时却又错失良机。这甚至发生在一些和神有密切关系的人身上。

牧师留言:
有些即将在十一月二七/二八日零九年,第四届约书亚营的出席者, 早在启程前便禁食了。但,那些初次参加约书亚营的可以阅读以下网址的文章, 对预备你的心或许有帮助:
http://pastorpaulang.blogspot.com/2009/09/power-of-clean-hand.html  (The Power of a Clean Hand / 圣洁手的大能 )
我们如果没有祭司的圣洁就不能拥有神的大能 (启示录 1:6)。我们几乎每日都阅读主导文。主导文最后的句子是,”…因为国度、权柄、荣耀,全是你的,直到永远”。 很多基督徒进入国度(那就是当他们已得救恩)的领域后就心满意足了。但是, 难处就是从国度要跨越进入权能和荣耀。因为,”…非圣洁没有人能见主” (希伯來书 12:14)。在荆棘火焰中,神对摩西说 “不要近前来。当把你脚上的鞋脱下来,因为你所站之地是圣地” (出埃及记 3:5)

Since setting up CKRM Leadership Training (SEA) Sdn Bhd in Malacca 8 months ago, we have been experiencing the abundant grace and blessings from God. Not only do we witness congregation growing, but CKRM has also made further inroad into Selangor, where a CKRM Banting Church (July 2009) and a CKRM Klang ministry (September 2009) have been set up.

We cannot do anything without God. By His grace & mercy, spiritual lives were changed, restored, bodies were healed, divine encounter increased in amazing proportions at CKRM Malacca. With miracles increasing in astonishing ways, there is also no lack in provision, finance with God leading many co-workers to our ministries in Malacca. Praise God!

Now, we are pleased to announce that CKRM English Church Service will commence on Thursday 7th January 2010 at 7.30 pm in Malacca and we would like to invite you to come and stand with us on this blessed occasion.

All glory to God!

Obedience to God's Voice - Absolutely No Compromise / 顺从神的声音 – 绝对好无妥协

自从八个月前设立了马六甲CKRM 超自然事工训练学校,我们就不断历了神许许多多的恩典和祝福。

我们看到神自己如何超自然把人带进来,而且人数不断增长,CKRM也迈进了雪兰莪, 在万津成立了一所教会 (2009 年七月) 和在巴生设立一个CKRM超自然治疗事工 (2009 年九月)。还有一所教会将在2010 年一月被成立。

在2009年十一月三日, 我们第一次被邀请出席在伯特利教会举办的马六甲牧师团契的聚会。当天,大约有二十位牧师出席这聚会而我们也是第一次会见他们。

我简短的自我介绍。分享了我以前从商的背景,和在蒙恩得救之前所过的罪孽生活。虽然在主里的年日并不长, 我对顺从神的声音是绝对好无妥协。就如但以理那样, 我宁愿去狮子坑也不愿因讨好人而违背神。是的, 我们宁愿被批评,论断或弃绝也不要妥协或接受任何违背神成立CKRM旨意的意见。

倪柝聲写道:“我们虽然需要服从所有的执政掌权者,神却没有命令我们要屈服于违背祂旨意的权势。

因着这坚定的信念, 我们不但被批评甚至连我们认识的唯一学院也和我们脱离关系。尽管如此, 我们见证了神如何祝福这三十一个月大的事工, 其成长是荣上加荣的!因“我知道你的行为,你略有一点力量,也曾遵守我的道,没有弃绝我的名。看哪,我在你面前给你一个敞开的门,是无人能关的 (启示录 3:8)。”

因此, CKRM的事工成为许多人的祝福, 有的被医治, 有的从不良习惯和捆绑中得释放, 还有属灵生命被恢复和复兴等。

如果我们总是因人而妥协, 我们就无法行在神的旨意里。行在神的旨意里是我们的呼召,所以我们要珍惜神在我们生命里的呼召。神在我们生命里的呼召是我们与生俱来的权利,所以我们要义无反顾,绝对好无妥协的持守到底。

在希伯來书12:16-17 恐怕有淫乱的,有贪恋世俗如以扫的,他因一点食物把自己长子的名分卖了给弟弟。后来想要承受父亲的祝福, 竟被弃绝, 虽然号哭切求, 却得不着门路使他父亲的心意回转。

神要祂的子民成为刚强的基督徒。因此祂将他们放进火里, 熬炼他们, 如熬炼银子;试炼他们, 如试炼金子 (撒迦利亞 13:9)。施洗约翰预先告知说耶稣将用圣灵与火给人们施洗 (马太福音 3:11)。火代表清除, 净化, 洁净, 燃烧我们生命里的碎秸和渣滓。

没有经历过圣火试炼, 考验和诱惑, 我们不能成为刚强的基督徒。我们可以蒙召和被拣选。但是如果我们因惧怕人而妥协,不忠心于神, 当魔鬼和羔羊争战时, 我们就不能与主一同得胜 (启示录 17:14)。

Bob Jones, Sr讲道:“顺从神的话语是我们爱祂的严峻考验”。 因此, 我们的属灵生命的成熟度不是以成为基督徒时间的长短来衡量,而是以我们对神顺服的程度作为鉴定




Since setting up CKRM Leadership Training (SEA) Sdn Bhd in Malacca 8 months ago, we have been experiencing the abundant grace and blessings from God.

Not only do we witness the congregation growing, but CKRM has also made further inroad into Selangor, where a Church has been set up in Banting (July 2009), and a CKRM ministry in Klang (September 2009). Another Church will be set up in January 2010.

On 3rd November 2009, we were invited for the 1st time to attend the Melaka Pastors’ Fellowship held at Bethel Church. There were about 20 pastors, and it was our 1st time meeting all of them.

I introduced myself briefly. I shared about my past background as a businessman, who lived a life of sin before I was saved by His grace. Though I may be young in Christian faith, I would never compromise with obedience to God’s voice. Like Daniel, I would rather go to the Lion’s den than trying to please men. Yes, we would rather be criticized, discredited, or rejected than to compromise, or accommodate advice which is contrary to what God wants us to do.

Watchman Nee wrote: “While we must submit to all authority, we are not commanded to obey those authorities contrary to the will of God (Scripture).”

Due to this firm believe, we have been criticized, and even disassociated by the only school that we have known. However, we witness the blessing of God upon the 31 months’ old ministry, which is growing from glory to glory. For “I have placed before you an open door that no one can shut. I know that you have little strength, yet you have kept my word and have not denied my name (Revelation 3:8)”.

Hence, CKRM ministries has been a blessing to many people, who have been healed, set free from addiction and bondages, and whose spiritual lives have been restored and revived.

We cannot walk in the will of God if we are so willing to compromise with men. Walking in the will of God is our calling so we must treasure the calling God has for our life, and the calling of God upon our life is our birthright so we must protect it at all costs without compromise.

In Hebrews 12: 16-17, Esau was being described as godless, who for a single meal, sold his inheritance rights as the oldest son to his younger brother. Later, when he wanted to inherit this blessing, he was rejected. He could bring about no change of mind, though he sought the blessing with tears.

God wants his people to be strong Christians. Therefore, He will place them into the fire, to be refined like silver and tested like gold (Zechariah 13:9). John the Baptist foretold that Jesus will baptize the people with “Holy Spirit and with Fire” (Matthew 3:11). Fire symbolizes purging, purifying, cleansing, burning up the chaff and dross.

Without going through the fire, trials & temptations, we cannot be strong Christians. We can be called and chosen. However, if we are not faithful to God by compromising with men out of fear, we are not qualified to be with the Lord when devil make war against the Lamb (Revelation 17:14).

Bob Jones, Sr quote: “The acid test of our love for God is obedience to His Word”. Therefore, our spiritual maturity is not determined by the length of time that we have been Christians, but by our obedience.


Miracle of Instant Weight Loss at CKRM Malacca - Bro Thomas Ong / 马六甲CKRM 急速减肥的神迹

“But forget all that—it is nothing compared to what I am going to do. For I am about to do something new. See, I have already begun! Do you not see it? I will make a pathway through the wilderness. I will create rivers in the dry wasteland.(Isaiah 43:18-19 NLT)

During CKRM Malacca service, I have been asked by Pastor Paul Ang to share and minister to the congregation. When I prayed for miracle of instant weight loss. Our Sister Deborah, Vice-Chairman of CKRM Banting, received miracle of instant weight loss! Deborah said "I am filled with the power of Holy Spirit and I have lost 6kg, from 65Kg to 59Kg! My hips has been reduced by 8 inches miraculously in the Glory!" She then added 'As a professional beautician it has been a part of my job to help people to lose weight, and now, the miracle of instant weight loss will help me to evangelise to my customers that God can do all things!"

Praise the Lord for the new wave of signs and wonders!

马六甲CKRM 急速减肥的神迹


“你们不要记念从前的事,也不要思想古时的事。看哪,我要做一件新事;如今要发现,你们岂不知道麽?我必在旷野开道路,在沙漠开江河”( 以賽亞書43:18-19)

在马六甲CKRM的聚会时,保罗牧师叫我与会众分享并服事他们。

当我祷告神向会众彰显急速减肥的神迹时,我们的底波拉姐妹 (CKRM 万津 超自然治疗中心的副主席), 竟神迹般的领受了超自然的急速减肥!

底波拉姐妹说:“我被圣灵大大地充满并减少了6公斤的体重,从65公斤 减到 59公斤!我的臀部在荣耀中神迹般的减少了8寸” 。她继续说:“身为一位专业美容师,帮助顾客瘦身减肥是我工作的一部分。现在这急速减肥的神迹将在我向顾客传福音述说神凡事都能行上给于很大的帮助!”

为着这新一波的神迹奇事赞美主!
