praise & pray for Colt [KOR]













had lunch with Colt  yesterday - posted on him last week [23/10] he'll be leaving  Brisbane soon!

after enjoying a cheapskate lunch ($6.50 for the 2 of us!) i asked him if he'd ever understood The Good News. he hadn't. :(

after going through the commandments, [which he was guilty of breaking all] i got to the Qn of 'when God judges you, will you be innocent or guilty?" . . . and he replied "innocent" :|

he has some weird idea that so long as he realises what he did was wrong, he'll be innocent before God . .. ??!!


just his thoughts. he admitted to not being sure why he believed that [could've just been language difficulty], unsure whether it was true or not ..

has some bizarre beliefs about heaven & hell.

since he couldn't be convinced of his guilt before a Perfect & Just God, i didn't move onto sharing the Good news .. is that considered "throwing pearls before pigs?"

i left the time urging him to seek out The Truth found in Jesus Christ, to go to The Bible. he was thankful for our time together :)

a lost soul needing to be found & rescued by The Good Shepherd!:D PRAISE! :D


:D we're not manufacturers of God's Word & Gospel.. just distributors!


*PRAY*

* Holy Spirit would bring conviction of sin to Colt's heart, that he would flee to The Only Saviour before it's too late!


* open Colt's  blind eyes to see Jesus!

* open Colt's  deaf ears to hear Jesus!


* breathe life into Colt's  dead soul so he can live to glorify Jesus!

pray for the unreached!

"Then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve." Joshua 24:15



Choice is a great privilege-and a fearful responsibility. The greatest choice any individual or group will ever make is which god it will serve. In days in which personal freedom is exalted over all virtues, the call to serve another sounds like foolishness. Yet even when carnal men think themselves most free, they find themselves in bondage to lust, greed or materialism. Scripture reminds us that God has created people for Himself, to love and serve Him. If we reject God and worship someone or something else, bondage and idolatry results. When we serve God wholeheartedly, we experience spiritual freedom.

Pray that the hearts of the Burmese people in Bangladesh will be turned to serving the living God and His son, Jesus Christ. Pray that they will destroy their Buddhist idols and embrace Him.




At first, Joshua's response to the defeat at Ai predictably focused on the shame and reproach it brought to Israel. Then Joshua realized that the defeat would encourage the peoples of Canaan to despise Israel's God as well. Are we, as God's people, aware of the impact of our sin and disobedience on the nations of the earth today? Are we concerned about the scorn our spiritual weakness brings on the name of our God? Are we concerned enough to repent, confess our sin, and seek holiness?

Pray that we will bring glory, not shame to His great Name, so that unreached peoples STILL WAITING TO HEAR THE NAME OF JESUS! will be drawn to Him.

rejoice with me & pray for me~!!

Lately, I’ve been feeling grossly apathetic. :=(


There is SOO much around me that ought to drive me to tears, yet my eyes remain so dry :-(

So once again, I come humbly asking your prayers as we journey on toward HIM! :)


while it’s never an easy journey, but 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 ;)


- praise & prayer points from previous prayer mails mostly still apply, but for the sake of space I’ll leave them out ;)

:D rejoice with me! :D


I liked this paraphrase of Psalm 4:6-7 :)


“Psalm 4: 6 Why is everyone hungry for more? "More, more," they say. "More, more."


I HAVE GOD'S MORE-THAN-ENOUGH, Psa 4:7 MORE JOY IN ONE ORDINARY DAY THAN THEY GET IN ALL THEIR SHOPPING SPREES!


:D the more I taste of this world’s “goods” the more i’m dissatisfied & long for heaven & all He is!!

:D providing well in advance a replacement phone & sim card for the phone I lost recently [the one i usually use for international students who can call me for free on that number] . . . i’m sooo amazed at His goodness to me!!!– it already factored in all the stupid things I do!


[I think this is the 2nd or 3rd phone I’ve lost now?!]


So if you ever contacted me on 0413-203-978, don’t! if you want an optus prepaid no. to contact me on, try


0401-624-031 ;) [thanks to my brother-in-law’s dad who left his sim behind after a short visit to Aus! My optus contract number is still ok :) 0421-338-214


Pray I’d stop losing the gifts Father’s entrusted to me! :=(

*PRAY*


* give me tears!! – a soft heart that would overflow with compassionate love for my neighbor as myself!

* He’d keep showing me any areas of unbelief OR areas of stubborn resistance I need to repent of!

* I’d cooperate with Father in His work of making me more like Christ!!

* I’d know how to be in friendship with my earthly father!


Listen to this great podcast: http://thegodjourney.com/2009/07/03/rightly-treasuring-what-matters

* I’d know where I’m weak or where i’m just putting limits on what He can do in / through me!


* doing Fathers’ will would be my constant desire, highest joy & true food!

* I’d wait for the Spirit of God to save myself lots of time, effort and energy in.


“A worker who indiscriminately throws precious seed on rocky ground and gives pearls to pigs is not being a wise, faithful, and profitable servant.” <-- so often i feel like that’s what I’m doing! :(

* I’d live out my indebtedness to everyone around me to give them the gospel!


-- prayer burdens He’s been giving me:
* give me revival in my soul / church / nation or give me DEATH!!

* I’d live in fear of Him to have True Wisdom & insight to seek good & flee evil!

~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!!


pray for Madel - optus customer service rep! (PHLP)



Madel was the the optus customer service rep i spoke to about blocking my service [the phone i lost yesyterday!] all went well, then at the end she asked "is there anything else i could do for you today?"



i told her that i had an important message to share with her, referring her to www.fathersloveletter.com which is translated to many languages which is perfect as most customer service reps i talk to are from all different parts of the world!
:D PRAISE! :D

:D the ways He's used the internet to communicate His gospel to the lost!


* Madel's soul be drawn [deeper] into Fathers' love & this would be highly contagious to all around her!!

why not share this (or your own favorite evangelistic website) with those strangers Father brings you into contact with? on the internet / phone etc?!

The Lord isn't slow to do what he promised, as some people think. Rather, he is patient for your sake. He doesn't want to destroy anyone but wants all people to have an opportunity to turn to him and change the way they think and act. 2 Peter 3:9


i wonder how many lost souls Christians speak to, yet we just let the opportunity slide without directing them to Jesus in some way?!


TIME IS SO SHORT -- LET'S PASSIONATELY REDEEM THE TIME IN THESE EVIL DAYS!


Make the most of your opportunities because these are evil days. Ephesians 5:16

pray for Michael [VTNM]






i was _sooo_ distracted today .. from the start, i dropped one of my phones (the one i usually use for international students who can call me for free on that number] .. i kept thinking about how could i do this yet *again* :[~~
. . . where could it possibly have dropped..

so i wasn't really focussed at the prayer meeting this morning .. Father graciously lifted my downcast head to see He was in control, He'll take care of it ;)

actually a week ago He povided me with a SIM card that'll be handy to call international students for free!
... maybe Father knew in advance i'd lose that phone! :P
... even though i stored lots & lots of reminders in that phone :S
 so for now i'm using other old old phones that've been out of action for ages ..
may His will be done with that phone i lost. :|

so went out for a walk on a simply divinely beautiful afternoon, calling my lost phone [silly -- i left it on vibrate mode :S] trying to retrace my steps, but all in vain. :(

yesterday i read an email from Elijah Company Mentorship Network on Prayerwalking.
now, Fathers' given me a love for prayer. + a love for walking. what better thing could i 'indulge' my soul & body in than Prayerwalking?
the email talked about: "Take time to listen to what He is saying. Move slowly. Be friendly. Greet people along the walk, and offer to pray for their needs."
[great stuff! subscribe by going to: http://www.elijahcompany.org/
elijahcompany-mentorshipnetwork-subscribe@strategicnetwork.org]


i could post the entire email but its quite long - email me at  HaHaikHa@gmail.com if you want the full email ;)
 
after walking about an hour i came across Michael, sitting by himself & thought of what i'd read in that email mentioned before.
 
we chatted about mostly insignificant stuff, then he had to go ..


he's non religious, to which i told him i was too. this surpised him.
[does that suprise you too? i belong to the "recovering pharasees" club . . . i'm still in the process of getting a pharasectomy]
 
i don't know why but i seemed hesitant to 'steer' the conversation to the gospel :S
 
what was i thinking??!! :|
 
just wanted to share i have my off days too :S
 
really praying to focus back on Him
i felt this phone was becoming a bit of an idol for me . . .  iv been praying He'd show me any idols i still hold onto & _crush_ them so i might worship Him exclusively as He deserves.
maybe this was His way of honoring my prayer?! ;)
 
anyhow, He will provide. i just gotta stay focussed & trust Him :D
easier said than done, but sometimes its easier done than said! [because we like to complicate everything & live in the imagined realm - REALITY = GOD IS TRUSTWORTHY. PERIOD!

praise & pray for Sandra, Alice, Tom, Coti, Jennifer, Ari, Joohan, Kevin, David, Hassan, Takashi, Colt, Aaron,Albert, Joni, Paula, Elijah [SPA, CHI, KOR, TW, JAP, AUS, PNG]

MORE AMBASSADORS FOR CHRIST NEEDED ON HURSDAYS!!!

"The harvest is vast, but the workers are few. So ask the Lord of the harvest to send out workers into his harvest." Matthew 9:37-38



























- those i met at conversation corner yesterday ...

it felt like an unproductive day so far as the gospel going out . . . :"( BUT! i'm thankful! :D

:D PRAISE! :D

:D God brought them here!

:D bringing Joni, Paula & Elijah to come & help!! =)
:D blessing me with a really encouraging time with Elijah!

(usually we get up to 8 students per table, with only one teacher/ leader .. NOT a good ratio for practicing English conversation!!)

* PRAY - as The Spirit leads you!

* Elijah & i were able to have a good dinner with Colt - a nominal catholic who doesn't know where he'll go after this life is over .. he'll be leaving Aus soon~!
* 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 '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!

it felt like an unproductive day so far as the gospel going out because i was going around telling people about this outing we're having on Oct 31st, so i didn't get much time to sit down & talk with people.. but Elijah reminded me to "give thanks in all circumstances -- this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus!" -- 1 Thess 5:18

pray for:* fruitful friendships to be established & strengthened at this outing that'll draw these precious souls into His love!

~thanks~!GOD WORKS WHEN WE PRAY~!! *** ETERNITY WILL SHOW THE FULL FRUIT OF OUR PRAYERS- BE ENCOURAGED!!***

pray for the unreached!

"See, I have delivered Jericho into your hands, along with its king and its fighting men. March around the city once for six days. On the seventh day, march around the city seven times.... Have all the people give a loud shout." Joshua 6:2-5


This certainly seemed like a strange formula for victory. Usually the men would simply go to the battlefield and fight. So it is when we take the gospel to the peoples of the world. Sometimes God will move in unusual ways to bring sinners to repentance and faith. At other times His messengers must work for decades before seeing fruit from their labors. It may appear that God will use medical workers or the JESUS Film to reach the Aguiri people. But He might do something else that will surprise us all.



Pray for God to show workers how He wants them to reach the people He's called them to serve!

* bring more Divine Appointments their way as they study & live in Australia to help open their blind eyes, unstop their deaf ears & enliven their dead hearts to receive Real Life!

:D the privilege it is to use English to win friends who'll welcome you into eternal dwellings!


:D Jesus' pomise in John 12:32 "And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself."

pray for the unreached!

"Moses my servant is dead. Now then, you and all these people, get ready to cross the Jordan River." Joshua 1:2


What fearsome words: Moses is dead. Moses was the man through whom God had done great and mighty works in Egypt and in the wilderness. Joshua, to whom God spoke these words, had been simply an assistant, and now he was to lead the Israelites. Today, our generation stands in awe of the missionary giants of previous eras. William Carey, Hudson Taylor, Cameron Townsend, Donald McGavran, and Ralph Winter are no longer walking among us. Nevertheless, God's challenge to us today rings as clear and sure as this word to Joshua centuries ago: Get ready to move! Thus the torch of responsibility passes from generation to generation. Are you ready to take the torch?

Pray for His anointing for those who will take the torch and reach Bangladesh for His Kingdom.

pray for David & Pedro [CHIL]


since the Aus. government was offering $1600 rebates to get houses insulated, my dad applied for it, and 2 Chilean brothers came over to install the free insulation.

was praying - really wanted to witness to them in some way.
tried being helpful, which they appreciated . . .
before they left i gave them 2 big money gospel tracts.

sometimes i really feel like my attempts to share the gospel are so small & weak. :|

* pray they'd read it at a time their hearts are soft & receptive to The gospel & the seed would yield an abundant harvest of 30, 60 or 100 fold!

order the tract to spread the gospel for yourself! just $5/ per pack of 100!http://www.operation513.com/shop/product_info.php/products_id/28?osCsid=8af41da56b89b36f58be2e5092341057

pray for the expansion of His work!

a fellow worker in English Corner went to Auckland, New Zealand to run a TEAM day - Teaching English as Mission. Then onto the YWAM Backpacker's DTS school! please pray for them - the churches in Auckland will be encouraged and inspired to continue to Teach English as Mission. Also for the YWAMers that they will be inspired to reach out to the sojourners they meet on the trail!

may His people continue have their eyes lifted up to see the harvest is ripe NOW to harvest!

"The people are bringing more than enough for doing the work the Lord commanded to be done." Exodus 36:5b

This is the kind of problem we want to have! There was too much being brought into the Lord's storehouse. The people of Israel were so grateful for God's deliverance that they were willing to give their all for the tabernacle. Many view Bangladesh as a poor country with not much to offer. But when the hand of God transforms a nation, that nation can become a source of both spiritual and material blessings to others.

Pray that believers in Bangladesh will bless the Lord by giving generously of their time and money to His radio work.


"Did I conceive all these people? Did I give them birth?" Numbers 11:12


Though this complaint to the Lord about his responsibility to the children of Israel may sound almost comical, it is a common feeling missionaries experience. Moses was overwhelmed with the responsibility and the burden. In one of their prayer letters, GRN staff note that "It's hard work; it often involves difficult travel and living conditions." In the flesh, it would be very easy for workers to consider the job un-do-able, and give up. But God is greater than any situation.

Pray for the Holy Spirit to refresh and encourage GRN staff in Bangladesh this month by adding to their numbers, just as He did for Moses (See tomorrow's Bible portion).

rejoice with me & pray for me~!!



An encouraging devotional:

. . . But I bring you good tidings of great joy, dear Christian friend! failure of Self is the very key to living the Christian life. As painful as it is, the bitter tears of failure provide the water for nurturing the Precious Seed that is planted in your heart of hearts and making it grow. To despair of ourselves is the very key that opens the door to all the power, the victory, and fruitfulness in Christ that we seek. "I KNOW that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwells no good thing." I KNOW IT, Paul says. No good thing. I know that in me, in my flesh, in my Self, there is nothing. Apart from Him I am nothing. He is Everything. CHRIST IN ME is my only Hope.


In one part of me, my flesh, dwells no good thing. In the other part of me Christ lives.

Lately, Father has been doing lots of His awesomely gracious work in me, through & because of my frequent failures!
So once again, I come humbly asking your prayers as we journey on toward HIM! :)


while it’s never an easy journey, but 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 ;)


- praise & prayer points from previous prayer mails mostly still apply, but for the sake of space I’ll leave them out ;)


:D rejoice with me! :D


:D He sees me as His beloved child, ALWAYS, because of Jesus!


:D His opinion of me (which is the only opinion that counts!) is “in Christ!” :D


:D because of Jesus, He forgives AND forgets ALL my sins!!! So there is NO record of them in heaven!


:D super-abundantly supplying for all my needs!


:D frequently humbling me so I despair in myself & trust in Christ alone!


:D healing me from my cold & using sickness to draw me closer to Himself!
(thanks for praying!!)


*PRAY*
-- prayer burdens He’s been giving me:


* he’d revolutionize every area of this life He’s given to me so anything of myself is thrown out & all that remains is of Him!


* I’d listen ONLY to Jesus and STOP listening to myself!


* i'd live by FAITH IN HIM! & STOP living in fear!!


(He showed me way too much of my life is lived in the realm of imagined failures & fear of it!)


* my fears of possible sin won’t keep me from doing what Father wants, but I’d resolve to obey Him anyway!


* i’d stand firmly on The Truth ((all that Jesus has done for me at the Cross!),unshaken by the lies of the enemy


* i’d see past my failure the way Jesus does. [my HUGEST struggle!]


* I’d deliberately be vulnerable so others might be saved! ... following the example of our Lord & Saviour!






~thanks~!! please tell me how i can best support you before His throne of Grace too!

Looking forward to hearing from you how i can best support you in prayer & praises!!
