Finally, I started my personal spiritual journal, after being inspired by this simple site:
http://www.cwgministries.org/Four-Keys-to-Hearing-Gods-Voice.htm
Started on Thursday. So, today will be the 5th day already~ :D
And I trust that God will motivate me to keep going on.~
So, all the best to me.. hehe.. and my spiritual journey =)
Father God, lead me as I continue to seek You more and more.

God is gonna shake the earth again.
Prophecy from Cindy Jacobs:
This is what the Lord spoke to me yesterday (April 5th, 2010), “Cindy, Pentecost. Check out the dates for this year’s Pentecost and call my people to cry out on that date.”Pentecost this year is May 23 and it is an unusual one in that there is a convergence of the eastern and western traditions with the celebration being held on the same date. This does happen, but rarely. Then I noted that the last Global Day of Prayer event (these prayer meetings have been going on for ten years and this is the last one), will be held on Pentecost Sunday in Capetown, South Africa.God wants His winds of Pentecost to blow at Pentecost. The Lord says, “I want my people to pray in a new Pentecost that will sweep the face of the earth for I am coming with divine visitation that will touch heaven and earth. Many will be swept into the Kingdom of God and my glory will pour our with signs and wonders both in heaven and the earth!”In the Russian Orthodox tradition, the night of Pentecost called for a special “Kneeling Prayer” service in which everyone makes a full prostration, touching their foreheads to the floor.Let’s all participate and call for a day of fasting and prayer as the Holy Spirit is speaking and a Pentecost of wind, fire, and glory will break out across the face of the earth in unusual ways.
Pentecost is coming back ~!
Be on your guard !
Repent, for the kingdom of God is near.

Please read the full article here.
And read the earlier prophecy on this event.
Reflect on it, and ask God how should we Christians in Malaysia respond to this.
Seriously.
I repeat... this is a serious matter.
Taken directly from Jaeson Ma's post on Easter Day:
Some of you have heard, but just about an hour ago at 3:40PM in Baja California a massive 7.2 (some say 6.9) earthquake hit. We felt the earthquake at 3:44PM on 4/4 in downtown LA right while I was speaking about God’s coming revival and glory to LA with three friends at a cafe. When the table begin to shake and the ground began to quake, we knew it was not only an earthquake, but a SIGN from heaven that God’s kingdom is coming! I don’t believe anyone needs to be afraid as long as we are walking with God. He gives us warnings in order to prepare us, to protect us because He loves us. We must always live each day as if it were our last, live like were dying, nothing new for anyone who follows Christ as His disciple for He calls us to deny ourselves, take up our cross and follow Him daily… with this recent earthquake on 4/4 Easter my thoughts…What does this mean? Many people were questioning my prophetic word written on 3/25 about 4.4 Earthquake on 4/4 read here. I never predicted directly in my prophetic word it would happen today, but I alluded to the prophetic confirmations and not mere coincidences that it was possible and that God is coming into Southern California once again with His glory and all flesh would see it. That I believed there was not a coincidence with the 4.4 earthquake occurring at 4:04 and Easter being 4/4 this year. Now that the earthquake has happened on 4/4 here in Southern California…I write this still with a burning heart, but sober mind set.Here I am, with my heart burning within me as I write this, knowing that we are about to enter into a sweeping move of revival and awakening like this city, this generation has never seen. I spent the whole day yesterday walking the beaches of Malibu praying to my Savior, for I knew that what He revealed to me in that time was significant and a confirmation to the earthquake today….I am exhorting us and challenging us all, don’t take these supernatural signs as mere coincidence, they didn’t in Biblical times neither should we. In these times, when God reveals His heart and His incoming presence we must meditate on God’s Word and remain holy, humble and hidden…“Once more I will shake not only the earth but also the heavens.” The words “once more” indicate the removing of what can be shaken—that is, created things—so that what cannot be shaken may remain. Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe, for our “God is a consuming fire.” Hebrews 12:26-29

ATTENTION: Prophecy by JMA : Earthquakes + #4
Here's an excerpt from a recent post by Pastor Jaeson Ma.
Please, I beg you, to read the full article.
In another part of the same post:
.
Please, I beg you, to read the full article.
I woke at 4:03AM one minute before the earthquake. As I was walking into my bathroom the room began to shake. I knew it was an earthquake. I began to pray and the Lord spoke to me that it was a “wake up call” to His people. In the morning, I find out that the earthquake was 4.4 at 4:04AM and happened on the 16th (4×4) day of March (3/16/10). Where also this year Easter falls on 4/4/10. Coincidence? I don’t think so. Why is this prophetically significant?
I looked up these two verses in the morning understanding them from a cprophetic standpoint:
Psalm 4:4 In your anger do not sin; when you are on your beds, search your hearts and be silent. Selah, Offer right sacrifices and trust in the LORD.
This verse is to remind us that we are to check our hearts, while everyone at 4:04AM was on their beds we were to search our hearts of any sin, any unrighteousness and to be silent before God’s almighty presence. We were to remember not to put our trust in our own riches, possessions or power, but to put our complete trust in the Lord.
Isaiah 40:4 “Every valley shall be raised up, every mountain and hill made low; the rough ground shall become level, the rugged places a plain. And the glory of the LORD will be revealed, and all mankind together will see it. For the mouth of the LORD has spoken.”
Can this Scripture be any more clear? God is coming in His power to level and destroy every mountain and hill, any demonic or unrighteous stronghold that puts itself up against the Lord. In a city where Hollywood shuns the name of Christ, puts itself up against the name of God, perpetuates sin, darkness and wickedness to the nations, a city where sexual immorality, homelessness, and drunkenness abound, all these demonic strongholds of fame, fortune and false gods will be brought low and the valleys shall be raised up. Those who stand for righteousness will be raised up in the land. So we are to get right with God, or get gone when judgment comes. It is a wake up call! Why, because in verse 5 it clearly states “And the glory of the Lord will be revealed.” God desires to reveal His glory, but He can’t come in His glory without first humbling the land, cleansing the sin and unrighteousness, so that the land can be healed. This can only happen if we as His Church will humble ourselves, turn from our wicked ways, seek His face and then He will heal our land (2 Chronicles 7:14).
It so happens this year Easter lands on 4/4. God is warning us, waking us and urging us to wash ourselves clean of all sin and unrighteousness to prepare for a great glory that is about to be revealed in our land, but it will not come without impending shaking and possible judgement.
In another part of the same post:
I can not get into prophetic details, but the past months the Spirit has been leading me and others prayer intercessors to pray for specific Hollywood strongholds in the media, music, porn and other communities with tangible and specific confirmations from God that these industries will fall apart very soon…
Then in just the last 3 weeks I have met with key Christian leaders all across LA who minister in the Hollywood industry to link hearts in unity and prayer for the revival of this city. We all felt in our meetings that God was calling us to unite for a greater outpouring…. something in the Spirit realm has been brewing.

Accurate?
A friend posted this short article on facebook:
First of all, I would like to say that this article is quite a dangerous article; simply because it can be interpreted differently depending on how you see it. If a non-believer or even a believer is convinced that this is how church works, then, God have mercy upon them, because they only got the smallest part of how church works. This article only shows a small portion of how church works, and it will be misleading if people simply just take it as the major role of a church.
In the first paragraph, there is this guy that goes to church for 30+ years already, and has listened to 3000++ sermons, and yet he did not remembered any one of it. This clearly shows that this person is NOT a Christian at all. A born-again Christian has been given the Holy Spirit as guide and mentor, and the Holy Spirit WILL teach the person on every sermons he hears. And with the discipline of God, the spiritual lessons learnt will be integrated into the life and character of the person.
So, if the person did not get anything from the 3000++ sermons after 30+ years, he does not have the Holy Spirit. If he does not have the Holy Spirit, he is not a born-again Christian. If he is not a born-again Christian, he is NOT a Christian at all. Having "Christian" written as your religion does NOT mean you are a Christian. For further readings, please study the book of Hebrews. It's just a short book, but contains very heart-piercing words.
However, if we are to assume that the person is not a Christian, then it's totally fine. A churchgoer do not necessary mean a Christian, simply because any non-believers are welcomed to attend church anytime, as frequent as they want. But,
Next, let's examine this statement from the 2nd paragraph:
The purpose of going to church is not for ourselves, but for body of Christ as a whole, for corporate worship, and to uphold one another. So, if our purpose is for nourishment, we do not need to go to church for that. We can do it anywhere, anytime, because God is omnipresent; He is everywhere at everytime. So, practically, if you do not go to church, you will NOT necessary decay spiritually. No doubt that it is true you will get nourishment if you go to church. But church is just one day of a week; not even one day; just half a day. What matters more is how you live your life the rest of the week. Do you continue to seek God, longing for Him consistently?
So, in conclusion, the article above is misleading and can be very dangerous if we do not understand the truth of the Scripture and what God wants of us.
And I am NOT against attending church. I'm just trying to rectify and complete the meaning of the article.
Soli Deo Gloria!

Why Go To Church?
A Churchgoer wrote a letter to the editor of a newspaper and complained that it made no sense to go to church every Sunday. "I've gone for 30 years now," he wrote, "and in that time I have heard something like 3,000 sermons. But for the life of me, I can't remember a single one of them. So, I think I'm wasting my time and the preachers are wasting theirs by giving all those sermons as well."
This started a real controversy in the "Letters to the Editor" column, much to the delight of the editor. It went on for weeks until someone wrote this clincher: "I've been married for 30 years now. In that time my wife has cooked some 32,000 meals. But, for the life of me, I cannot recall the entire menu for a single one of those meals but I do know this. They all nourished me and gave me the strength I needed to do my work. If my wife had not given me these meals, I would be physically dead today. Likewise, if I had not gone to church for nourishment, I would be spiritually dead today!"
When you are DOWN to nothing.... God is UP to something! Faith sees the invisible, believes the incredible and receives the impossible! Thank God for our physical AND our spiritual nourishment!
First of all, I would like to say that this article is quite a dangerous article; simply because it can be interpreted differently depending on how you see it. If a non-believer or even a believer is convinced that this is how church works, then, God have mercy upon them, because they only got the smallest part of how church works.

However, if we are to assume that the person is not a Christian, then it's totally fine. A churchgoer do not necessary mean a Christian, simply because any non-believers are welcomed to attend church anytime, as frequent as they want. But,
1 Corinthians 2:14 The man without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned.Thus, non-believers who attends church will find it very hard to understand the sermons. Thus, this supports that the person mentioned earlier is NOT a Christian.
Next, let's examine this statement from the 2nd paragraph:
"if I had not gone to church for nourishment, I would be spiritually dead today!"That is not true. Going to church is NOT the ONLY way for nourishment and it is not even the best way. The best way to keep yourself in-tune with God is have a consistent heart that seeks Him; consistent in a way that you continue to long for God and to seek Him EVERY MOMENT of your life. And by seeking Him, we will be nourished.
The purpose of going to church is not for ourselves, but for body of Christ as a whole, for corporate worship, and to uphold one another. So, if our purpose is for nourishment, we do not need to go to church for that. We can do it anywhere, anytime, because God is omnipresent; He is everywhere at everytime.

Miracle
Just sharing a blog post of pastor Jaeson Ma:
Read the original post here.
Pastor Jaeson is the coolest pastor evar!.. lol.
.
You will either see nothing as a miracle, or you can choose to see everything as a miracle. You can choose to use your logic, or you can choose to have faith. When logic no longer has an answer for your problems, that is when faith is most needed and that is when miracles happen. Everyday, if you pay close attention you will recognize that many things that happen are more than mere coincidence, but possibly a divine orchestration of God’s intervention. A few ways to experience a miracle in your life…
1. Believe in a Good God ~ miracles happen when have faith in a God that can make the impossible, possible. When we believe that God is good, anything can happen! The Devil is always bad, God is always good, put your faith in God’s goodness & you will expect good things to happen to you!2. Pray Often ~ when you begin to pray about everything your spiritual eyes began to see past logic and into the realm of faith. You enter from the natural into the supernatural and this creates an environment around you for miracles to happen.3. Look for Signs ~ many times we recognize miracles when we pay attention to divine signs that appear in our lives. When you realize that something you just prayed for happened, or something is too good to be true, it’s probably a miracle on the rise.4. Be expectant ~ miracles happen to those who believe, those who exercise their faith and desire to see uncommon hopes accomplished. A pastor once said, “Impossible situations can become possible miracles” Every challenge is opportunity for a miracle to happen!
Remember that, “Everyday holds the possibility of a miracle.” We got to believe that in every challenge of life that we face, it presents an opportunity for miracles to take place. After all, just the fact that we are alive is a miracle in itself…Yes, you are the greatest miracle of all!

Human Nature
I just read the recent post of two blogs on my sidebar.
Please read these two posts first before continuing:
http://art-harun.blogspot.com/2010/02/just-what-kind-of-bull-shit-is-this.html
http://rantingsbymm.blogspot.com/2010/02/this-is-injustice.html
Again, please read the two posts above first before continuing... thanks.
Incidentally... even though those two posts are talking about different events, the idea I get is the same. By the nature of human, we always get mixed up between justice and compassion. We get our mind mixed up with our heart. The mind says justice, the heart says compassion. Then, both clashes can causes confusion within us.
But you know what? What Jesus did on the cross was 100% compassion & 100% justice. It's FULLY compassion and FULLY justice at the same time. Unthinkable? Think about it. God is the chief judge. All of us are guilty of our sins. No one escapes that. So, to be 100% justice, all of us deserve full punishment from God. But, with 100% compassion, God the father sent His son Jesus to take ALL of our sins upon himself, and therefore receive ALL the punishment upon himself, alone. Imagine.. All the wrong that we did, and we should receive the punishment. But, Jesus came and took our place of the punishments, instead of us.
So, in the end, 100% justice was done, because ALL the sins of EVERYONE was punished. Yet, it is 100% compassion, because Jesus took the punishment for us, and spared all of us. How amazing was that?!
Another way to understand is through this famous story from Josh McDowell's book:
So, relating to what's going on recently, what I can say is.. Jesus is the answer. We need to have the mind of Christ. Human by nature is full of flaws and inner confusions. And guess what? The master of confusion is Satan himself. Sigh. So, what else can I say? Have the mind of Christ and God will guide and discipline us to do the right things and do the things right. He will take control of our minds and hearts.

Another way to understand is through this famous story from Josh McDowell's book:
A young woman was stopped for speeding. The police officer ticketed her and took her before the judge. The judge read off the citation and asked, "Guilty or not guilty?" The woman replied, "Guilty." The judge brought down the gavel and fined her on hundred dollars or ten days in jail. Then he did an amazing thing. He stood up, he took off his robe, stepped down from the bench, took out his billfold, and paid the young woman's fine. Why? The judge was her father. He loved his daughter, yet he was a just judge. She had broken the law, and he couldn't simply say to her, "Because I love you so much, I forgive you. You may go scot-free." Had he done such a thing, he would not have been a righteous judge. He would not have upheld the law. But because of his love for his daughter, he was willing to take off his judicial robe, step down to her position, assume his relationship as her father, and pay the fine.
So, relating to what's going on recently, what I can say is.. Jesus is the answer. We need to have the mind of Christ. Human by nature is full of flaws and inner confusions. And guess what? The master of confusion is Satan himself. Sigh. So, what else can I say? Have the mind of Christ and God will guide and discipline us to do the right things and do the things right. He will take control of our minds and hearts.

Peace
Really love how pastor Jaeson Ma describes peace. Simple yet powerful words.
Quoted from his website:
I dedicate this text to all my coursemates currently struggling with their final year projects. These few weeks will be the most critical weeks for us as the deadline quickly approaches. It will be stressful for many. But, in God and only in God will we find the true, perfect peace. It is my prayer that you will catch the meaning of this text and learn something new; this promise; this assurance. Wish you guys all the best!
.
Quoted from his website:
Every person in this world is searching for some kind, some form of peace. We want peace in this world of chaos, we want peace of mind, peace in our relationships, we want peace in our souls and we want to be at peace with ourselves. But peace does NOT come from without, it does NOT come from within, peace comes from ABOVE. Know God, know peace. No God, no peace. It is that simple. Peace is a state of BEING, it is being one with God and one with ourselves. Peace can only be achieved through understanding. With God, we need to LET GO of our understanding and gain HIS understanding. He's got it under control and we just need to trust. It is then and only then can we find peace.
I dedicate this text to all my coursemates currently struggling with their final year projects. These few weeks will be the most critical weeks for us as the deadline quickly approaches.

Just Woww!
Before I share my story, please read this recent experience from a great man of God, Jaeson Ma.
Read the rest of the story here.
-----
So, my part now. It's just a short one though...
Interestingly, I read this article yesterday... And this testimony of Jaeson touched me so much; it inspired me to do the same as well.. So, last night I asked God the same thing. I prayed to God, please let me help someone tomorrow, the way You would help them. And the next morning, which is this morning, I asked God again. I prayed to God, please let me help someone today, the way You would help them. I didn't know how this would work, but I just trusted God...
And guess what? Out of expectation, around noon time, I found myself helping out a coursemate with her final year project (FYP)..! Sounds typical? Nope. This one is different:
(1) I do not know anything about what her project is all about.
(2) I was not helping her to get the outcome; I taught her how to do it. (not to give someone a fish, but to teach the person how to fish)
(3) The thing I taught, I learnt as well... God taught me on the spot.. I myself never done it before.. ever.
(4) This happened at a weird, unexpected time. It was 10mins before 2pm class starts.
In detail.. I helped her do some macro-ing on MS Excel 2007, which myself never done it before, ever! Seriously! I tried on the spot, and God just made it work.! It's such a joy to bless others with what we have and sometimes even with what we do not have. In this particular case, I've blessed someone with something I DON'T even have. I self-learnt on the spot and I helped..!
Jesus, You are just plain awesome! I asked and You granted!
Thank you, Lord, for bringing me to pastor Jaeson's website in the first place!
So, Wow! I tried what pastor Jaeson did, and it worked !
God works.. again.. always..
.
You just never know what might happen everyday when you put yourself out there to love somebody. I had a long day and decided to cancel my last meeting of the night because I was seriously too physically exhausted. Before I went home though, I prayed to God, please let me help someone today the way You would help them. I didn’t know where to go, but I needed to go get a screw for my car’s license plate so I pulled up at a hardware store parking lot. Right when I came out of my car a man walks up to me and says, “Sir, I’m sorry to ask this but would you be generous enough to get me a hamburger and a drink? I said, “I would be happy to!”
He seemed very sheepish. His name was Billy. I could tell he was not your normal pan handler so I got to know him more. He told me had been out of work for 4 months, by trade he was a mason, but times were hard and he didn’t have enough money to eat that night. When we got to the counter of Mc Donald’s I asked him to order whatever he wanted. He ordered a #1 Big Mac meal. I told him to order more, to get anything he would like, but he simply said that would be enough. So I at least super sized the meal for him. I ended up getting my order and sat down and had a “happy meal” together haha.

Kris Allen wows Malaysian fans
“A year and a half ago, I was in my small apartment, not really doing anything. Who would have thought that I’d end up here?” said the soft-spoken singer, whose self-titled post-Idol album has sold about 245,000 copies to date.He added that he preferred not not to seek publicity but focus on his music.
“(Being low-key) is the way I am. I’d rather hang out with my wife or go out to dinner (than attend red-carpet events),” he told a press preview here yesterday.

Spiritual Gift Test
I just took this newly added, Spiritual Gift Test by New Life Church.
And here's my result:
Your Top Five
There is a "sweet spot" of ministry that God has designed for each of us. Often, your top 5 highest scored gifts can give a clue to what your area of ministry can be. Below you will see the top 5 spiritual gifts based on the answers you provided. This will be a help to you as you serve to use more of what God's given to you. It can also be helpful for you to look in the right direction of how you should serve.
Helps: You love to help others, nothing is too much to ask, and others seek you out when they face a practical need.
Mercy: You feel the needs of others and you do what you can to help them.
Discernment: You have a sense of what is motivating a person, and can discern whether that is from God or not.
Faith: You believe God will do it before anyone does and long after others have given up, you believe until it happens!

Mercy
Although Haiti has a history of being directly involved with the devil and the practising of evil acts, we cannot simply conclude in anyway that the recent disaster is a punishment from God. Even if it is true, it is none of our business; "For the battle is not yours, but God's" (2 Chronicles 20:15). Whatever that is happening in the spiritual realm is beyond our human comprehension, and is not for our concern. Instead, we are to continue to love the people there as our neighbours. For those who still believe the nation deserves to be punished, we are called to love our enemies as well.
Here, I pray Father God, that You break the ancestral bondage from the current generation. Let this generation start fresh again with Your strength and guidance; free from the practices of their ancestors. Have mercy upon them, and be gracious to them, Father God. Give them peace and strength as they endure through these difficult times. Let them work together, live together as a family, and share with one another all the help and aids provided for them; not being greedy.
As for the political powers around, I pray Father God, that You'll take control of them. Do not let them take advantage of this situation for self gain. Instead, let them feel this same situation of being in the shoes of the people in need. I trust in You, Lord, that You are still in control of everything that happened. You ways are always perfect. I commit these people, the nation of Haiti, and the whole situation, into Yours hands.
Thank You, Lord, for all the help, support, and concerns from people throughout the world for the nation of Haiti. Bless them and reward them, O Lord, for all the genuine concerns for these helpless souls. Thank You, Lord, for moving many hearts to bless this nation. Continue to provide for them, Father God; in Jesus' name, Amen.
