Title of the day: Breaking the Da Vinci CodeI guess those whom love to read books specially those fiction ones will heard about this very famous books by Dan Brown, "The Da Vinci Code" wooo.. sounds like a thrilling and interesting right? and I guess those whom had read it will admit that the books challenge alot of our human thinking... but one thing I will like to causion all my friends whom read it is that there is a "trap" laid behind this book... But I thank God for Christians like Collin Hansen, whom help to correct the concepts about the book and to restore the truth. www.christianitytoday.com/history/newsletter/2003/nov7.htmlWell personally I havent read the book but certainly one day, I will like to read this book. I believe that there are others such books which challenge our faith in Christ.. this is one of satan's weapon to temp us believing that our Lord Jesus is not real etc... so stand firm my fellow brothers and Sisters! let no false accusation of our Lord shaken our faith in him! "Heaven Father, I pray for forgiveness to those whom had falsely accuses about your own son and also question about the reliability of your words. forgive them as they dont know what they are saying. They think that they are smart.. but those fools didnt know that they have begin slowly consume by the pride, arrogant which is inside them. I pray that those whom had read the book or others false accusation book that lord you may open up their eyes and soften their heart so that they will know that you are the truth God, God of Moses, God of Abraham. I pray for the blood of Jesus to cover and protect my fellow sisters and brothers in Christ whom had readed the book, I pray that they will not stumble but grow stronger and deeper in you! I gave thanks and praise you in Jesus Name. Amen!"

Title of the day : War of the "World"....phew! what a long time since I have updated my blog! well was very busy then... didnt really want to update.. (okok I admit I am a little lazy too ya!) well.. was a up and down week.. same thing... I just pray that God will have mercy upon us... Stay overnight at Tim house (not ps Tim) together with Kenneth, watch movie and play game! whahaha.... till 330am then we slpt. Church was as usual, everything was as usual, nthing much happen.. but I was quite worried for wendy as I was shock to see her pale face today during STEP class, then later part, I received an sms by PC that Karen Or (my da sao) was having high fever.. Stanley was sick too.. He got dirrhoea but still he did a wonderful job for praise and worship! Today I hv a wonderful discipleship with Ps Tim and tat tong. One thing that Ps Tim encourage me is that "it is ok if u have been knock down, but you are not Knock Out yet!" which means it is ok if you find yourself always been knock down by situations but.. the most important thing is that you are not knock Out of the rink yet! Father of Love, I pray for your healing hands to be upon my fellow brothers and sisters, Karen, wendy, stanley whom are feeling ill that may their health be restored in the name of Jesus! I give thanks for the different people you have put around me to encourage me, to guide me spiritually. I just pray that Lord you will mould me and use me to be a guiding star to help others also in the future. I give thanks in Jesus name Amen!

Title of the day : The day where God's fresh anointing is upon me!
Today I was late in church... I didnt want to go church today.. I dont know y but i just dont feel like going... I was awaken by my HP alarm clock. I switch it off.. and went back to sleep, but only not long after I found myself awaken again. This time I could sense two "side" of me are persuading me. "Do go to church today, is ok one cause u are sick mah... and yesterday u sleep at 3am due to filming... is ok one" another side (I believe is my holy spirit) "Come on Jonathan, you got to get up and go to church!" "but I am late!" I replied "then dont go lor! no point!" said the other "Come on Jonathan, you got to get up and go to Church!" said the holy spirit. So after much debate, I finally got up... wash myself and set off to church. Along the way I though to myself...."Oh no.. I am late again.... this time very very late..." "is ok.. better then u dont go!" I somehow ans back myself. Thank God that when I enter the church (through the back door) the sermon only just started!! wao.. then I sat down beside tim, whom are alone behind. The sermon today was very gd... specially to me... This week was quite a tough week for me as I am always enage in "spiritual warfare" against satan's deceiving thoughs... It is tough.... but God is faithful, he still holding on to me not letting me fall... Father, I give thanks that you are always holding on to me even when I fall into holes of Sin. I give thanks for your unfailing love for me, I give thanks for the strength to overcome, I give thanks for the friends, mentors, churchmates u hv given to me. They are truely a blessing. Father, forgive me at times when I wanted to give up the fright... forgive me when during trails and difficulties, I want to quit.. even to the extend of giving up my faith in you! oh how foolish I will be if I do that!! Lord... I pray fresh anointing from the holy spirit each time when I face a trail, I pray that I will always be reminded to trust u when I do not understand the difficulties I face.. I pray that I will be like Job, a men that will still praise God and give thanks to you even facing trails.. I pray that I will be like Jesus! my saivor, your son, that even ask for forgiveness to those nail him up on the cross! Fill my heart with thanks giving and forgiveness, love and grace, so that I will be able to be strong and still praise you when trail stuck me.. thank you father, I commit this prayer in Jesus name... Amen!

Title of the day: Spiritual Warfare....."To Arms!! I shouted, as the battle cries fill the whole air.... I was under attack! The "enemy" storm towards me at all direction!! attacking at my emotion, my faith, my stronghold of God, I was able to recognise the enemy fast, it is them again!! The army of low self esteem! both armies put up a ferious battle.... but I was losing... just then... a bright shining light come towards me.... "Do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed. for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my rightous right hand." - Isaiah 41:10
Everyday in the office is like going to a battle field... a battle not against my colleauges (they are all very nice people!) but against the spiritual "dark forces" in me... The army of "Low self-esteem", one of the greatest enemy I have since sec 3.... But Glory be with the Lord! Victory had given to us through Jesus that I am able to withstand outwits all the attacks by satan, although sometime I was "badly wounded" but I thank God I was not defeated and I am able to be heal instantly!
Gracious father in heaven, I give thanks for the word you hv promise in the bible, that we shall have victory not only over death! but also over other weak areas in our lifes! Father, pls forgive me as many times I allow myself got "beaten up" by the enemy badly, many times I wanted to give up my faith... many times... but Lord u nv forsake me all the while... u are like the father carrying the son on your comfort arms...there is nothing comparing to yr ever last love... I gave thanks, I pray that after each trails... I will be stronger, stronger in you and I believe one day, I will be a Man of God! I gave thanks and pray this prayer in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ! Amen!

Title of the day: United Families... United in Christ...Today was a up and down day of me... down as in I fail to do my given tasks well and cause some disturbance to some of my colleauge at an event..... hai... I went off early because I am going to my 3rd Aunt (father's 3rd brother's wife) birthday celebration. Almost my entire father's side family had gathered in a resturant @ Chervon. Most of my cousin attended the celebration. It was a very happy and fun occasion! I enjoy the company of all my fellow cousins! A few of my older cousins say that I have change alot, slim down and look more handsome!!! whahaha... guess is because we hvnt met each other for a very long time, alot of my family gathering, I could not attend. I could see the unity of my father's side families, between brothers and sisters.. I got a chance to talk to one of my cousin, his name is "Ming Zai" nickname... he is my father's sister (my 2nd Aunt) son. We chat for quite a while cause he was sitting beside me.. then suddenly, we talk about Christianity... and I found out that he heard about the gosph through youth for Christ movement and he actually believe in God!! praise the Lord! but he had not yet "offically" accepted Christ in prayer yet... and I heard from him also that his parent (my 2nd Aunt) objected strongly against him and infact, her elder sister, my another cousin, to believe in Jesus!! I try talking to him and explain him about it is not just becoming a Christian... it is believeing that matters... I wanted to lead him into a prayer to accept the lord... but I dont hv the courage to do so.. I also dont know y... but I send him a prayer sms, asking him to accept the Lord by praying the prayer I send to him.... I begin to see God's hand to be in my family, I pray for more salvation among my cousins and even my own sisters... families... that one day, we will be a united family... United in Christ! Heaven Father, I give thanks for blessing u hv given me... Father, I give thanks for such a united cousins I have.. I am glad to hear from one of my cousin that he believe in you.. not only him... and his elder sister as well... but due to their parents strong objection... they do not dare to acknowledge you... Father I ask for forgiveness to their sins, and also their parents, as they do not know you.. I pray that you will protect them and increase their burning desire to know u more!! I pray all this and give thanks in Jesus name.. Amen!

Title of the day : The Power of our Lord Jesus Christ!Just got back from the Prayer Concert @ Expo! It was very powerfull concert and indeed the our Lord Jesus was with us!! Hahaha.. during the concert and the prayers, tears just flow from my eyes like a running tap water, people may say that I am emotional which I agree I am, but today, it was the touch of the holy spirit that I shed my "Men" tears!! hahaha
One of the prayer was to pray for East Timor, the worldest youngest country but yet was the poorest in Asia... I still remember during the fever 05 concert not long ago... they are also sharing with us about East Timor. We were given each a small bag and inside the small bag, there is a card which state a nationl, each card state different nation that we are praying for... I was quite surprise that mine was East Timor!! Y? haha.. a sudden mind come into my head... "Is God trying to tell me that I should go to East Timor to comfort his lost sheeps??" hoho... cause during the fever 05 concert, I was very touch on how God had use some of our brothers and sisters in Christ as his healing hand, to comfort those East Timor people... I too, wanted to make a different.. and I can feel a calling from God to go there for mission trip.. but I hold the though knowing that I am at times very emontional, and will do things without even thinking if it is really my calling!! but today, I dont know... by getting the prayer card, hearding once again the healing mission for East Timor.... God? do u want me to do my mission work there?? I will let him decided... Heaven Father, let your will be done upon me... you know my desire to spread your love and share your word to those whom are lost.. are u calling me to East Timor to make a different in the lives which are broken and lost? I dont know... father, I pray that one day, through the sensitive of the holy spirit.. you will let me know where my mission work will be... Father, I pray also for my second sister Kai Feng, I ask that you will forgive her as she dont know you... I senes that you want me to tell her about your love and wanting to come into her life... father, forgive me of been not able to break the "unknow" wall between my sis and myself, I pray that you will soften my sister heart, that she will be willning to listen to me sharing your gdness and mercy.. I give thanks for everything in Jesus, most powerfull name.. Amen!
