pray for the unreached!


"Am I in the place of God? You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives." Genesis 50:20


Joseph's perspective on the sovereignty of God gave him a powerful lens through which to interpret both his life and world history itself. Scripture tells us that in Christ the same perspective Joseph had is assured for us today: God causes all things to work together for good . . . to those who are called according to his purpose (Rom. 8:28). That purpose is to bring the blessing of a covenant relationship with the Creator God to every nation, tribe, people, and language. When we are walking in the light of that purpose we can be sure to always have the proper perspective on everything that happens in our lives and in our world.

Pray that God's redemptive plan for the Khondh people will become so apparent to them that they turn away from the worship of false gods, and embrace their Creator

praise & pray for John (KOR)





scanning through my phone's contact list, i came across one of many friends i haven't called in a long time, even though he's move far away to work, thankfully he's not out of range of the optus phone network! ;)



:D the gospel is REAL .. & TRUE~!!


:D blessing John to live long enough to hear the gospel! [considering the thousands who are dying every second without ever hearing the precious Good News of Jesus Christ . . . that anyone lives long enough to hear is a HUGE BLESSING!


:D keeping contact is so easy in this day & age~!


:D providing good phone deals. FREE CALLS = THE BEST THINGS IN LIFE ARE FREE!


... sharing the gospel scary & hard ?. . . NO WAY!!! THIS IS THE BEST NEWS IN THE UNIVERSE!!!


:D Jesus seeks & saves the lost .. and chooses to use frail, weak, common vessels like you & me!


:D giving John understanding of the gospel as we shared!


*PRAY*


* Christ manifest His victory & preemimence over every obstacle hindering John from coming to Jesus in repentance & faith!


* reveal Christ as INFINITELY desirable & INFINITELY satisfying to John, bringing him to True Repentance & Faith before it's too late!


* we'd see John in heaven worshipping The Lamb because He's Worthy!! along with others there because he in turn passed on this gospel & didn't keep it to himself!


* have mercy on John, work supernaturally in his heart to forsake sin, follow Jesus, the Son of God in a life of faith! & not let him waste his life giving glory to any other than The One who made him & gave His life for him!


* bring more Divine Appointments his way as he works & lives in Australia to help open his blind eyes, unstop his deaf ears & enliven his dead heart to receive Real Life!

pray for the unreached!

"Abraham had become very wealthy in livestock and in silver and gold." Genesis 13:2



One of the surprising and yet widely misunderstood principles in Scripture is that God has no problem with making people wealthy. All throughout the Bible God raises people up to positions of power and influence. However, the purpose of this blessing must always be understood in the context in which God has placed it. He said to Abraham, I will bless you . . . and all peoples will be blessed through you (Gen. 12:2-3). Without the purpose behind the material success, that which was intended to bless can become a curse. The solution to this dilemma is to understand that we are but stewards of blessing for the purpose of redeeming all peoples to Him.

Pray that the Haddi people will soon realize that their blessing comes from Christ, not from entering a Hindu temple.

* PRAY - as The Spirit leads you! - *

... often i don’t 'feel' like I'm a missionary to these people .. i'm definitly NOT an English teacher but Father seemed to be affirming from our 10th yr celebration of English corner that i'm better suited to just welcoming & befrirending them nyway, even though i'm Not straight out preaching the word to people :S

Chandala People In India


The concept of a name bears a lot of weight in Scripture. God chooses to reveal Himself to different people with different names that have a unique meaning to that person or people group. A prominent feature of the Old Testament is God encountering people and giving them a new name, meaning their character was forever changed as a result of the confrontation. In the New Testament we read of those who overcome being given a new name, which only God knows (Revelation 3:12). Names have significance, for good or for bad.

In India, the name Chandala is a derogatory expletive used to describe the untouchable Dalit communities in the Indo-Aryan speaking regions. Imagine what these people must feel like to know that their very name is used as a curse word! Upon arriving in different nations, it is not uncommon for people to change their name to a more user-friendly version according to the traditions of their new country. Yet some Chandalas have changed their name when they go to neighboring Bangladesh to escape the negative effects of the word. Life is hard for most people of lower castes in India, but the Chandalas bear their reproach everywhere they go. (To find out more, see: http://www.hinduwebsite.com/hinduism/h_caste.asp)

Pray for this group of so-called untouchables in India, where even their shadow is said to defile someone. Much like the lepers we read of in the Gospels, Jesus wants to touch the "untouchables" who have lived on the outskirts of society. Pray that they may come to know and identify with Jesus Christ, the One who Himself was "despised and rejected by men…one from whom men hide their faces" (Isa. 53:3, NIV).-MB

Christian Identity and Christian Destiny


** too good to keep to myself ;)**

following on from my last post, a brother recommended i look into my identity in Christ, so rising early, [not really by choice - i had to go to the toilet! :P] i searched "my identity in Christ" at one of my favorite Christian resource sites, http://www.desiringgod.org/


Who am I?


How did I get this identity?


What's it for—Why am I here?


The Anwer is there for those who will seek Him!


check it out!

rejoice with me & pray for me~!!


Today it feels like I’m drowning in a messy pool of sinful self-contradictions between all that I know in my head to be true & the disgusting way my thoughts & actions go directly against all i “know” to be good & true. :(

So once again, I come humbly asking your prayers as we journey on toward HIM! :)while it’s definitely not an easy journey, it is ever full of promise =)

if you have any questions / comments, please let me know!
just ask~! Don’t be shy~! my life's an open book ;)
:D rejoice with me! :D :D using all my sinful failures to humble me again & again, driving me to the foot of the cross to find mercy & grace I need so desperately in my timeS of need (i.e. all the time!!)
:D Father is still in the business of turning failures into princes, sinners into fishers of men =D
:D He made me weak as I am so He gets ALL the glory in me!
:D pouring out super-lavish grace through loving, supportive friends & family ~! [i.e. YOU!] ..
*PRAY* - prayer points from previous prayer mails still apply, but for the sake of space I’ll leave them out :
-- prayer burdens He’s been giving me:
* FILL me with The Holy Spirit!
* raise up more laborers for the ripe harvest of souls worldwide!
* baptize me in obedience in all do, think & say!
* send persecution! Bless us with sharing in the fellowship of His sufferings!
* give me tears! -- i don’t know how my eyes could be so dry given the tragic way things are all around me & in myself! :~(
* He’d be the supreme hunger of my heart!
* change my appetite so the food that keeps me going is to do the will of Him who sent me & finish the work HE started! (John 4:34)
* keep exposing all the subtle but deadly substitutes for God i make so that they’d be DESTROYED!
* i’d passionately resolve to resist anything that lures the heart away from an all-consuming satisfaction in God.
* I’d be so preoccupied with Jesus, not self!!!! – too often I’m more aware of my own weakness, inadequacy, & sin than I am mindful of His strength, adequacy & perfect righteousness that covers me!
I’ve been considering moving on from the international student ministries I’ve been involved in for the past 7 years … probably because of reasons related to the previous prayer point, but at a recent 10 year anniversary celebration for English corner, Father seemed to be saying “continue … “ pray I’d obey!
* His wisdom & purity would shape all my thoughts and conduct towards women!
~thanks~!! please tell me how i can best support you before His throne of Grace too
!
if Father so leads you to be my regular prayer supporter, do check out this prayer blog every now & then :)
Looking forward to hearing from you how i can best support you in prayer & praises!!

Lyrics of a song Father brought to mind in my struggles with sin.. search it on youtube to listen to it :)
Rebecca St James go and sin no more

Verse 1: I've sinned, come on my knees For I'm not worthy of Your love How could You die for me Such grace can only come from God Oh Lord, You search and You know me You see me inside out God, You alone can forgive me Erase my fear and my doubt Father, You pick me up I feel like a child in Your arms I don't deserve this love, but I hear Your voice, Lord Jesus *CHORUS* Go and sin no more He said "I will not condemn you, I'll forgive and I'll forget it all Go and sin no more My child, let me remind you it is I who'll lead and guide you as you go
Verse 2:You are my purpose - You are the reason that I live I want to be like You - Help me to love and to forgive God, let me not be distracted Lord, help me focus on You Keep sin from ruling my life, Lord - make me holy and pure Father, You pick me up - I feel like a child in Your arms I don't deserve this love but, I hear Your voice Lord, Jesus *CHORUS* Go and sin no more He said "I will not condemn you, I'll forgive and I'll forget it all Go and sin no more My child, let me remind you it is I who'll lead and guide you as you go
Wipe, wipe away Take, take away Break, break away Fill my life, make it right Father, help me, Father, help me go
*CHORUS* Go and sin no more He said "I will not condemn you, I'll forgive and I'll forget it all Go and sin no more My child, let me remind you it is I who'll lead and guide you as you go I've sinned, come on my knees, how could You die for me You search my heart - know my thoughts See me inside out and all throughout me You alone can forgive me You always pick me up - like a child in Your arms I could stay with Your forever here

why is Revival delayed?


i've been blessed to read "why revival tarries" by Leonard Ravenhill -- SUPER-CHALLENGING, SUPER- CONVICTING STUFF!

here's a man who was NOT afraid to go against the flow, to speak out against the spiritual deadness & rot of today!

go here!! http://ravenhill.org
a sample:
"Men are now so occupied with getting to the moon that they have forgotten how to get to heaven. They are so bent on inventing new ways to liquidate cities that they have lost sight of living. Some scientists spend their lives inventing death.
This troubled age so relentlessly broadcasts its groans over worldwide radios every hour on the hour that men have forgotten that there is a Prince of Peace.
Honesty is hard to come by even in the church of the living God. We believers are so preoccupied with the lesser things of the church that we have starved our own appetite for the moving of the Spirit.

If we were not so preoccupied with lesser things, we would be grief-stricken that we have failed to inherit our possessions in Him. In failing Him, we hurt His dear heart day by day.
We are too preoccupied!

Tell me in the light of the cross, isn’t it a scandal that you and you & I live as we do?

as soon as we cease to bleed, we cease to bless

praise & pray for So Eun, Andrew, Sophie, Owen, Elma, Zoe [KOR, TW]



- those i met through conversation corner today -
:D PRAISE! :D
:D God brought them here!
it was rather slow going today, as usual, students would go to the other teachers instead of me because i look like one of them. :
i could've just stewed in feelings of negativity, but by His grace, He helped me to trust HIm & just be available =)
:D the Divine Appointments & conversations had when you just avail yourself to Him!
:D giving me bibles to pass out to bless others - gave one to So Eun. =)
:D providing another sister to meet with Youngha & So eun, so allowing me to avoid a potentially unwise meeting arrangement with them!!
:D blessing me with a phone to bless another brother with who was having problems with his phone. .. even though this particular phone has cost me much to fix ... i'm wondering if i should give up helping in this way as it's not very economically viable. then again, i always opt for the cheapskate option for serving people.
maybe i should just quit being so stingy!! >_<

* PRAY - as The Spirit leads you! - *

* Andrew - here in Aus to escape the boredom of hectic living in Tw, only to find himself entrapped in more boredom in Brisbane! now he wants to escape, again, to another city!
* Sophie - asked many questions, one of which "do you believe God wants you to do this?"
without thinking much, given my recent doubts, i don't know why, maybe just not to look too stupid, i replied "yes" :P may i follow Father to where He wants me to be His fragrance to a lost & dying world!
.. she said she believes in buddha & Jesus, has many Christian friends, and felt closer to Jesus recently.
* may Father seek & save their lost souls for His own glory!
* work by His Spirit through all the 'English corners' globally to draw lost souls into Living, Personal Relationship with Himself! see http://www.youroztown.com/ - look for the "World Free English Classes Timetable"
* Nations would be impacted as they send their bright future leaders abroad to study English!
* have mercy on them & send them back to 'home' eternally-changed souls, to join the missionary force He's raising up there!
* provide them with friendships / accomodation/jobs/ that will go towards the ends prayed for above

pray for the unreached!

"Seth also had a son, and he named him Enosh. At that time, men began to call on the Name of the Lord." Genesis 4:26
Here in Genesis chapter four we find an interesting contrast between two groups of people. The first descend from Cain, and they are identified by their careers, by what they are able to do. In this group are musicians, herders, metal smiths, and builders of cities. But the second group's identity is found in their relationship with the Lord. Today is no different. Most people, when asked to say something about themselves, identify who they are by what they do. But a few choose to identify themselves by Who they know.

Pray that the Ghatwar people of Orissa will cease to be known by what they do (prostitution), and will soon be transformed in such a way that they will be known by Who they know.

. . . really need Fathers' direction for what HE wants me to do, where & how!
was on the bus going home afterwards, started talking to the guy i sat next to, but he seemed so UNinterested in talking .. he was probably unsaved. how could i have just sat there, silent, holding the only cure for eternal death?!
my cold, passionless heart is crazy!
when time is so short & eternity is at stake, WHY do i waste so much of this precious God-given life like this?!
*sigh* .. i need prayer!! :

"God blessed them and said to them, 'Be fruitful and increase in number; fill the earth and subdue it.'" Genesis 1:28
The mandate to fill the earth and subdue it has clear parallels to the Great Commission. As we go forth in His Name, we are reclaiming this vision of seeing worshipers, who worship in spirit and in truth, giving glory to God in every time-zone on this planet, among every nation, tribe and people. The end result is that at any given time on this planet, praises to God are going forth. While in one time zone a session of praise and worship is coming to a close, in another it is just getting started. Built into the solar system itself is all the technology required for an entire generation to pray and worship without ceasing. Truly our God is an awesome God!

Pray that the Oriya speakers of Orissa might reflect back to God the beauty and majesty of all that He is.

praise & pray for So Jung [KOR]

i was told that So Jung needed a mobile phone.
thank God for those i can bless through these phones others leave behind - many visiting internationals use mobile phones while in Aus but no longer use them upon returning to their homeland
. . . being the big anti-waste man i am, i can't let opportunities for one person's trash to become another's useful treasure~!
not only for those who've broken or lost their phone, but even those fresh to the country & yet to buy one~!
we are SO blessed~!!
if you/ or anybody you know has any old or unused BUT STILL FUNCTIONAL mobile phones, it'd be a nice gesture if we could help supply them with a phone in Australia, potentially saving them lots of $$ !!
please:-
* have a dig in your drawers, bring any phones WITH THEIR APPROPRIATE BATTERY CHARGERS whenever you'll next see me or just drop in if you're in the area to: 6 Maisie Place Eight Mile Plains, Brisbane QLD AUSTRALIA 4113 [or else post to me!]
[note: if phone is broken, bring anyway, I may be able to get it fixed then pass it on? just let me know what's wrong . . . ]
* delete any contacts / messages you don't want the next owner to know about ;)
* leave any contacts / messages that would be helpful for the next owner to know about ;)
* call anyone you know who's recently upgraded their phone & might've kept their old one but won't use it anymore & would prefer for someone to actually use it vs. letting it sit in your drawer doing nothing!
just an idea, if you have other useful /unused items to bless any internationals with, let's keep being blessings with what we've been blessed with!
PRAY! these phones can be a true blessing to those who receive it in the eternal sense!
remember what Jesus said:
In everything I've done, I have demonstrated to you how necessary it is to work on behalf of the weak and not exploit them. You'll not likely go wrong here if you keep remembering that our Master said, 'You're far happier giving than getting.'" Acts 20:35
WE'RE SOO RICHLY BLESSED ... TO BE A BLESSING!!
~PRAY~!!

* this phone would be used to help connect So Jung with people who'll connect her to Father in a real & personal way~!

;';';';';';';';';';';';';';';';';';';';';';';';'
we are only blessed to be a BLESSING to OTHERS.
we can never out-give God,but there is MUCH JOY in trying~!
the more I shovel out of my life to God, the more He shovels into my life
...and God's shovel is BIGGER THAN MINE~!;';';';';';';';';';';';';';';';';';';';';';';';'

Gwen (Tw)

- met at conversation corner yesterday - she caught me when she was in a very low state over life in a foreign land with dwindling confidence in her English ability ..
tried my best to cheer her up, which seemed to work.
as her newfound friend we exchanged phone numbers & emails, i don't know why, maybe because it's my usual custom with international students, but i tend not to make this offer to girls much : it was probably an unwise thing to do -- i told her she could call me anytime.

[which, despite their gratefulness, rarely gets taken up!]
i'm definitely super-paranoid things could get too friendly too fast! >_<
.. even though i warned her to be careful about Aussies who're too friendly because they have some dirty ulterior motives [which seems to be going on more! :],
i know i'm not excluded from falling into temptation.

yikes!

please pray for Gwen. may Father give her friends to connect her with Jesus!

and for me too .. to excercise greater wisdom, conducting myself with all wisdom maintaining all purity for His glory!

Charles [KOR]

- met him at a post-English corner dinner two days ago .. he was looking for a tutor, a brother sitting next to him at dinner was a tutor! ;D
had lunch with yesterday, over which he told me he "received salvation" 10 years ago but doesn't give God the time of day now to even think about HIm much ...

.. it triggered off alarm bells mmediately in my head!
see this sermon i recently listened to "How Do I Know Im Saved" by Paul Washer.

he thinks he's going to heaven because he believes in God ... i told him the devil believes in God but he sure isn't goin to heaven!

and so we kept going around in circles .. by the end he was unsure of where he'd go after he dies.. i challenged him to be sure because it's cazy not to be sure!

*sigh* .. in hindsight i really should've pointed him to The Saviour ... maybe in a not-so-convicting way .. how could i be so soft when so much is at stake?!

the unreality i live in really is appalling :[

perhaps i need prayer as much as Charles does!

please pray for us as The Spirit leads you.

praise & pray for Youngha & So eun [KOR]

AAAHH!! HELP! :
yesterday, Youngha told me she'd like to meet me to read the Bible in English together.
So Eun, sitting next to her, was also interested to join.

please understand that given my lifelong struggles with lust, i'm especially hesitant to spend extended time alone with girls, even if it's around a "spiritual activity" :
wish i wasn't so incredibly weak in this area, but i think Paul's patterns for this in Titus 2 were spot on & wisest to be adhered to!
:D PRAISE! :D
:D Youngha & So euns' [and i'm sure many other sisters too!] desire to know Father better through His Word, even in a 2nd language!


*PRAY*
* provide sisters further ahead in this journey than they are who'd avail themselves to help Youngha & So Eun in their walks with God!

* keep growing Youngha & So Eun in their relationships with Him, to love & trust Him more!
* help me see what He's doing in this situation & partner with Him in what He's doing!
* i'd have ears to hear what He wants me to do in this situation & obey i even if i don't like it!

DOWNLOAD, BURN, LISTEN!!

just being extra cautious & wise ..

pray for Woo Sung [KOR]

- met on bus. [woh, feels like =such= a looong tme since i last initiated a conversation with someone on the bus~!]
he says he's a christian because his parents are [catholics] . . .

do pray for him & the many others who wrongly think they are "christian" because of family heritage!

... i didn't get enough time to share the gospel with him ... the only gospel tracts i had on me probably weren't the best for his English level.
.. tying to find some better gospel tracts usng God's law as it should be used, that communicates the gospel effectively using more basic English .. any ideas anyone?!

pray for the unreached!

"In the beginning, God . . ." Genesis 1:1


One of the most remarkable truths the Bible tells us is that the One who created the heavens and the earth didn't do so anonymously. He desires to be known, and can be known, and has revealed all of His divine attributes in creation itself (Rom. 1:20). Indeed, God did this so that men would seek Him and perhaps reach out and find Him (Acts 17:27). That men in every nation have sought to find God is evidence of this reality. Bible translators have yet to find a dialect that is without a word for the Creator God! At the same time, all peoples have found that there is something that separates us from our Creator. The ruins of our decaying bridges to reach Him are there to remind us.

Pray that the whole earth, and every nation, might be filled with the knowledge of His glory as the waters cover the sea.


"Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the water. And God said, 'Let there be light.'" Genesis 1:2-3
When compared with the vastness of the universe in which we live, our planet is but a tiny speck of dust. But it is God who takes something that is formless, empty and insignificant bringing order and purpose. The first thing he does in this process is speak words that bring light. Here in this light we come to see that it is God, our Creator, who gives everything its significance. That is why the message we bring is so powerful: we have the ability to connect every nation's story, and indeed every person's story back to God's story, with its light-giving introduction and eternal conclusion.

Pray that all unreached peoples might find their purpose and identity in their Creator.

praise & pray for GiHo, Sora, Yuka, Ali [KO, JAP, IRA]






those i met through English corner yesterday! [discussed an Fathers Day]
:D PRAISE! :D
:D bringing them here!
:D there is a Father in Heaven who loves unconditionally!
:D reconciling me with Ali over a misunderstanding that went horribly wrong :)
*PRAY*
* stir up a hunger in these precious souls to want to know The God as Father~!
* GiHo claims to have been a Christian but was turned off by the many bad examples he's seen ... may Father open his eyes to see Jesus & not be distracted by bad representatives!
* we'd see these dear lost souls in heaven, loving Jesus much because they received revelation of Jesus, along with others who're there because they didn't keep the treasure of His Kingdom to themselves!!
* work by His Spirit through all the 'English corners' globally to draw lost souls into Living, Personal Relationship with Himself! see http://www.youroztown.com/ - look for the "World Free English Classes Timetable"
* Nations would be impacted as they send their bright future leaders abroad to study English to add to the multi-cultural beauty of Christ's Bride, The Church!
* have mercy on them & send them back 'home' eternally-changed souls, to join the missionary force He's raising up there!
* provide them with friendships / accomodation/jobs/ that will go towards the ends prayed for above :)
* raise up laborers for the harvest to help in these English Corners, especially for the new one starting in the Gold Coast!
* keep getting a nagging feeling English Teaching is NOT for me . . . really need Fathers' direction for what HE wants me to do, where & how!
~thanks~!GOD WORKS WHEN WE PRAY~!!*** ETERNITY WILL SHOW THE FULL FRUIT OF OUR PRAYERS- BE ENCOURAGED!!***
