praise Jesus for His wadrobe!



Hand-me-down clothes...  they’re my favorite! All my best clothes have been given to me, and they seem to last longer than any I’ve gone out to buy. I wore Jack Wang’s left-behind clothes to a baptism today.. Iris & Sherry recognized them as Jack’s & called me Jack. What a compliment! ;) It made me think about how, to a certain extent, wearing someone else’s clothes gives you their identity. As those trusting in The Perfect work of God’s Son & King, Jesus Christ, and been immersed into His death & resurrection, He gives us His very best “clothes”!!

pray for Young Peoples' Teams!

10 days later & i i've not heard from Ellel India yet but The Grange & SpringHill [WA] both advise it'd be better for me not to join the YPT given my health concerns .. :S


.. but, i'm still keen to join!!

so i'm looking into going to their next trauma / healing retreat?
or maybe i'm chasing a "good" idea thats not yet a GOD idea?!

.. appreciate your prayers~!
an exciting opportunity to join the Young People's Team with Ellel ministries has been brought to my attention! :D
more info here: http://www.ellelministries.org/india/support/ypt
 ... this is the same ministry i joined a short course eaerlier in the year with - see

http://lifesshortprayhard.blogspot.com/2011/05/rejoice-with-me-pray-for-me.html

i have hesitations about joining,  (health related) .. otherwise i'm all-keen to join!!
the Qn is: where to join & when?

am waiting on Papa for His will ..  
.. my heart leans toward India .. since I'm storing up treasure in Heaven there [sponsoring missionaries & Dalit children through Gospel For Asia]
see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JVqAjZxqPAI&feature=youtu.be
but have been advised by my spirirual big sister thjat it may be most fruitful to join the YPT @ The Grange [UK] .. just thinking of the higher cost of travel etc repulses me :S
but, if this is Papa's way ... :)

do pray with me Papa keeps resourcing Ellel with staff/volunteers/financial/prayer supporters to keep the ministry flourihing all over the world, fulfilling His great Commission!
thanks!!
please tell me how I can best support you before His throne of Grace too!

pray for Sho [JAP]

... Sho is seeking a dentist open today [Sunday!] .. his teeth hurt ..

pray with me for Dr. Jesus to meet him in his pain!

Jesus, show yourself 2 Sho in his pain. if he can know U better by taking away his pain or taking him through the pain, let it be. i speak LIFE & HEALING 2 him!
... 20 minuts later he replies by sms:
thanks for your pray. they got better now ^.^ and see you soon

 [pray for His appointment!]
i replied "JESUS LOVES YOU SOO MUCH!!! you've experienced Jesus 'love & goodness.
He wants to show HImself to you in deeper ways. will you let Him?

... after words: i realised he was referring to his knee which my dad worked on when we met last Tuesday & not his teeth.. thy still hurt.

he'll go into the dental hospital tomorrow to find the problem .. if it needs major surgery,
he'll have to negotiate with his insurance company as he's not covered for dental :[
.. i just talked to him on the phone & prayed for him.

this is all quite new to me, i'm thankful Papa doesn't need me to have a PhD in prayer ministry before i can pray for others ;)

Jesus, show yourself 2 Sho in his pain. if he can know U better by taking away his pain or taking him through the pain, let it be. i speak LIFE & HEALING 2 him!

***UPDATE*** pray for Yoshi[JAP]

thanks for praying!!



:D rejoice with me! :D


:D thank Papa again for the *blessed* time we had resting & enjoying Father in His Creative beauty!! :D


:D bringing another brother from RBC around last night to join the conversation & share his story of Papa very real & powerful intervention in his life & his families'!



- i think he's hindered from having relationship with God because he's yet to experience God for HImself. :[

*PRAY*


* he gets a personal revelation & experience of Papa God's love, that doesn't demand control but frees him to truly live!


* overcome all his that holds him back from truly turning from self & sin, to throw the full weight of his confidence onto Jesus!!

* Yoshi, & many, many others held captive by mental blocks be completely set free -- free to live fully in Christ, and free to live fully for Christ!!!

GOD IS WORKING AS HIS CHILDREN PRAY!! =Dhow about for you ? anything i could pray for you? :)


pray for B.A.R.?? [AUS]


.. i was out last Thursday getting my bus day cap saver [hooray for Translink's bonus for disability concession card holders!!] .. as i normally do as i get off bues, i thanked the driver & told him i really appreciate them ;D
he told me i could be a busdriver too.
i replied, "not with my disability!" 
that got into a whole conversation of how i got my brain injury, how i nearly died but because Jesus is alive & still does miracles today, I'm alive :)

he took that as me preaching to him [[?!]
he shared how he thought religion was all man made garbage, to which i fully agreed.

.. he's nearly died from some health issues hmself, but thinks God's not taken care of him

... *sigh* .. we don't wrestle against flesh & blood!
i couldn't seem to find a way to draw his attention to Jesus .. it seems "religion" has really corrupted his whole view of God. 

pray with me for him & all who are Bitter. Against. Religion. [i didnt get his name] to be found by The Good shepherd who knows how to seek & save His lost sheep ... and show them who He really is!
GOD IS WORKING AS HIS CHILDREN PRAY!! =D
 

pray for Setha [THAI]


.. following on from my episode of losing money last Tuesday, silly "free money addict me" was at it again yesterday! :S
:D but thankfully, this time there was no loss of money :D XD

.. i was served by Setha, who i must admit was a work of God's art :D [i.e. she was very "pleasing to the eye"] .. Papa knows how to create beauty!!  .. praising Him is a great preventative to lust!
she counted the right amount but entered in $1000 less than the total into the system.

:D thankfully, Papa let me notice before i left the shopping centre & she corrected it with much apology ;P

naturally i'd chuck a spack & change banks for all the mony i've "lost" with them .. but i decided against it ;)
... so i left her with a "women only carpark" gospel  tract ;) .. if Papa can keep using my ability to get free money yet lose money in the process to help bring a lost son or daughter home to Him, then i figure it's worth it ;)






please pray with me for the salvation of Setha, her family & her people!!


GOD IS WORKING AS HIS CHILDREN PRAY!! =D

pray for Theresa [AUS]

i was going about getting my EFTPOS cashout bonus in the city on Tuesday ... when i got to the bank to deposit it, it was $50 short
[ARGHGHGHGH NOT GAIN!!!!]
 .. i was served by Theresa who was quite friendly, helpful & very apologetic about it.

i dont know how i keep losing money doing this

 .. thinking maybe it's Papa's way of telling me to stop wasting my time & energy juicing my special account for all the free money i can get :P
but i left the encounter with Theresa on a friendly note, and gave her a $1,000,000 gospel tract ;)

.. if Papa can use my ability to get free money yet lose money in the process to help bring a lost son or daughter home to Him, then i figure it's worth it ;)  
please pray with me for the salvation of Theresa & her family!!

GOD IS WORKING AS HIS CHILDREN PRAY!! =D

rejoice with me & pray for me!

My dear precious siblings in Jesus:



so many people fail to enter into the wholeness and healing that the Lord longs for them to enjoy, because they’re hanging on to unclean trash, thinking that God wouldn’t want it!


But the truth is, He really does want the bad and the ugly of our lives, as well as what we believe to be good! That way we really can be whole.


“it was the mess that I died for and unless you give it to Me, it will always be your master.” - Peter Horrobin

:D rejoice with me! :D


:D Habitual sin does not need to be a part of my identity anymore after an encounter with Papa, Jesus & His Spirit!

:D I can walk into each day without guilt & despair & wariness of diving into habitual sin that sucks the colors of life out of everything!!

I’ve believed so many lies. .. :D BUT I don’t need to believe them anymore!!


:D I’m loved for who I really am, mess & all!


:D I can be finished holding onto my junk... & give it all to Him, that He’d make whole all that’s broken in me!! =)


:D I’m a new creation in Christ!


:D it’s not my job to change or convince people. I’m free to love with no agenda!!!


*PRAY*

* strengthen me to persist in allowing the old to die and let new growth happen, so I’ll be more fruitful for Your Kingdom!


* I’d stop protecting my sin & pain, hiding it from Jesus, so I’ll know the real joy of what it’s like to be free!


* free me to live to love fully by healing the lie I’ve taken on & lived out for far too long that ‘to be [relationally] close is to be hurt, to be [relationally] distant is to be safe’ :[

* kill my independence!! That I’d wholly depend on His Life, to see with His eyes, hear with His ears, touch with His hands, and think like He does.

* help me live as part of the church Jesus is building that’s all about relationships and simply sharing life.



* help me be open and available to others around me. “His church is all about people and life is all bout relationships we can’t build. That’s His job & He’s the best at it!”

* I’d keep living in the simplicity & purity of a growing friendship with Jesus & those He puts around me!



* help me trust Him with the little faith I do have, and grow in loving people around me with the same love He has loved me with.


* I’d not give up on working through the possible pains of relationship before I’ve even begun!! ;P



* keep me living to give, not to get!!


~thank you~!


What a joy it is to be journeying with Abba Yahweh, Jesus The son by His Holy Spirit!! XD 8D =D

please tell me how I can best support you before His throne of Grace too!

love Aye-bul, Your Friend in Prayer =D
The one concern of the devil
is to keep Christians from praying.
He fears nothing from prayerless studies, prayerless work, and prayerless religion.
He laughs at our toil, mocks at our wisdom, but trembles when we pray.

We have to stop looking at prayer as the spare tyre in the boot - - and start seeing it as the steering wheel!

***UPDATE*** pray for Sho [JAP]

.. wish i had something spectacular to share ..
but i don't :"(
it's a strange feeling, to be *saturated* in Eternal, Unconditinal, Unbounded Love, and yet to hold it in instead of just overflowing with it to those around me!!

.. as i was out & about yesterday, i felt awkwardly silent at bus stops / on buses ... wanting so much to share His love & Life .. but feeling like my butt was superglued to the ground or my lips superglued shut :"(

***ARGHGHGH!! ***

meeting with Sho didn't *seem* to go anywhere, he injured his knee [again!] last weekend & thought he needed surgery .. i took him home to see my dad, even though he knew he couldnt afford it. 
i'm so thankful to have a dad who can heal [using natural therapies] .. whose heart is more to heal than to make money from other peoples' misfortune!
so after treatment, Sho felt much better & pain-free!
he cposted on my facebook: "thanks bro, for today!!"

i replied: "my pleasure mate .. i pray one day you can also join God's family & really be my "bro" ;D
 
.. pray with me that it be so!!

pray for mormon missionaries


.. it was a strangely hot spring day, i was waiting for a bus home to escape the oncoming "severe storm warning" looked over to watch for it, a strangely dressed-up guy smiled . i smiled back .. dressing so formally in shirt & tie on such a hot day rang the "cult missionary" bells in my head. ah well, he was also incredibly loved by Papa :)
conversation started, he talked about Jesus & religion, i talked about Jesus who came to bring Life, Liberty & Love  through Relationship, NOT through religion that only seeks to control people.
my bus came, left him with a gospel tract. pray for these precious souls who're so deceived that they'd travel the world to convert a soul then turn him into twice as much a son of hell as they are! :S
may The Lamb that was slain for their salvation receive the full reward for His suffering!

***UPDATE*** pray for Yoshi[JAP]

:D giving us a great conversation on relationship, living, loving & the deadness of religion!


GOD IS WORKING AS HIS CHILDREN PRAY!! =D


- he's hindered from having relationship with God because of all the 'religious baggage' in his mind that comes with it ..

*PRAY*

* overcome all his that holds him back from truly turning from self & sin, to throw the full weight of his confidence onto Jesus!!


* Yoshi, & many, many others held captive by mental blocks be completely set free -- free to live fully in Christ, and free to live fully for Christ!!!

pray for Yoshi [JAP]

... we didn't meet today as planned :[
i [intentionally] forgot to take my anti-epileptic meds last night
[and have been doing fine the past ~2 weeks?!] 
.. but for some reason last night i think i was on the verge of a seizure .. totally broke my sleep & woke up this morning really sleepeee & weak .. :"(
"oh no, can i still spend the day with Yoshi?"
my heart said yes but my brain said no :[
my spirit urged me to trust Him - He is The Saviour, not me!

. .. though i was more than a little disappointed i wouldn't be able to play my small role in helping to nudge Yoshi towards The Saviour today, i knew i my spirit Papa had better plans for me, and that i could trust Yoshi in His hands :D
.. so do please keep praying with me for His Saving work to be miraculously active in Yoshi's spirit ... i look forward to the next time i'll have the joy of catching up with what His Holy Spirit is doing in in Yoshi's life ;D
stay tuned!

pray for Yoshi [JAP]

meeting with Yoshi this Wed [5/10] - covet your prayers for us. he really needs an encounter with The Risen Lord Jesus!
:D i'm increasingly encouraged at how our conversations more naturally go into the spiritual ... evangelism is beautifully unforced! :D

~thank you~!



please tell me how I can best support you before His throne of Grace too!

restoring hope conference 15/10


... better to get this topic out in the open light because i know far too many of us hide it in the dark ..




the purpose of those who run this conference:

"Freedom from sexual brokenness, not through a method, but a person, the Lord Jesus Christ."

more info see: http://www.libertyinc.org.au/



while sexual brokenness is not *the* biggest issue in my life at the moment, it has been an ongoing problem for far too long & could easily go out of control if i dont get help!

also, i guess this is part of wanting to seriously repent rather than treat my sexual brokenness as a light matter. :[

:D we can know The One who is Truth, and be set free!
:D where The Spirit of The Lord is, there is freedom!

* The Spirit draws people that need to hear this information and be in this environment

people won't be afraid to come, and clearly understand this is a safe place

* His spirit transform people in mighty ways on the day & afterwards!

* set many captives free from pornography addiction, sex addiction and love addiction!!

* the venue be filled to cover all costs in putting this event on

* the video recording of the speakers goes without technical hitch!
 

pray for family holiday 7-9/10]

.. going away on a family holiday this Fri-Sun. it's been decades since our last family holiday!
all of a sudden i feel like a little kid all over again :P
... we'll be staying somewhere in this picture, i think :P

:D praise Him! :D

:D Abba Yahweh wants us to bring *everything* to Him in prayer!
:D the blessed gift of family :D

*PRAY*
* precious, quality interactions that'll encourage & deepen love in our relationships with Abba Yahweh & each other!
* especially treasure prayer for mending of the relationship with my older brother ... for as long as i remmber things have been awkwardly silent in our interactions :[
i long for meaningful connection with him, but am pretty clueless as to how to go about it :S
.. and i fear how i have gone about trying to mend our relationship may have made things worse?!
.. it really doesn't help when i reach out to him but i get no response / a negative response :( :( :( :( :( :( :(
* at very least pray for grace on my part to keep loving him, not always thinking the worst about our relationship & creative ways to bless him!

~thank you~!



What a joy it is to be journeying with Abba Yahweh, Jesus The son by His Holy Spirit!! XD 8D =D
please tell me how I can best support you before His throne of Grace too!

* please keep praying with me for Sho & all Japanese people to have a real, personal *revelation* of The Resurrected Jesus for himself -- that'll undo all the damage that's been done by baaad misrepresentations of Jesus by organised religion!! >.<

* may they see the all-urpassing preciousness & worth of Jesus Christ, that 'd they'd leave all their old ways / beliefs behind for good!


* supernaturally work through the miracle of his mothers' 7 year surival since diagnosis with cancer to eternally transform his his whole family!!
