Dear God Seekers,

I am greatly blessed by Pst Kong bible study on Song of Solomon. So much to absorb.. As I worship God, He brought me back to moments when I was a youth, how I loved to linger in His presence and seek His face without any agenda. I often prayed “God show me who you are, I want to know you more, I want to encounter you, I want to know what you will for me" and etc and each time He never fail me. I encountered His love, warmth and assurance that He will never leave me and how much He love me. The collections of my walk with God brought me to where I am today a leader and a full time worker for God. But deep in my heart, they is a cry for more of God, a cry for greater breakthrough for God to show me His calling upon my life.. I know the answer can only be found in prayer so I am determine to seek God for greater breakthrough so that I can serve God in my generation. As such, I want to encourage all you to continue to grow and be always hungry and thirsty for more of God in your lives. One encounter with God our lives will not going to be the same. Desire to seek His will in you. He called all of you to greatness ya… Let delight ourselves in Him as we draw near to God He will draw near to you.

John 5:20 “For the Fathers loves the Son and show Him all things that He Himself does and He will show Him greater works than these, that you may marvel.” Let expect God to show us things that we will marvel .. “ greater work that He has called you to do”

weeeee here are the pictures,finally.

the presence of God,

2 Samuel 6:3-23 talks about the Ark of the Covenant which represents the presence of God. Uzzah was struck dead by God when he touched the ark with hand, intending to steady it while on the moving cart. Did God deliver too harsh a judgment on Uzzah? After all, his act seemed a natural one. The truth is that Uzzah had become too familiar with the presence of the ark in his life. His act of touching the sacred ark was an act of disrespect to the presence of God.
In verse 9, David asked, "How can the ark of the Lord come to me?" How can the presence of the Lord come on to a person? Who has the presence of God? It should be the heart's desire of all God's people to carry the presence of God in our lives.

There are two truths about the presence of God: one, we can never get too familiar with His presence and second, everything will start to change when His presence falls upon the situations which we are in and upon our lives. It is the presence of God that can make us do awesome things. Sin is going to stop the presence of God in our lives and so we need to watch our lives carefully.

In order to carry the presence of God in us, we need to:

1. Serve the Lord with gladness

2 Samuel 6:12
"so David went to the house of Obed-Edom to the City of David with gladness."

Religion binds and restricts who we are in God. The church needs to be set free from any obligation towards God and instead, serve Him with gladness in their hearts.

2. Sacrifice

2 Samuel 6:13
"that he sacrificed oxen and fatted sheep."

Without sacrifices, we are not going to impact the city for Christ. God is interested in your heart.

3. Be enthusiastic

2 Samuel 6:14-15
"then David danced before the Lord with all His might…brought up the ark of the Lord with shouting and with the sound of the trumpet."

Forget about what others think of us. There is no such thing as 'private Christians' and we need to live our lives being excited for Him. People will be interested to find out what is this 'special person' who is within us that make our lives so interesting.

4. Remove personal judgments

2 Samuel 6:16
"Michal, Saul's daughter, looked through a window and saw king David leaping and whirling before the Lord; and she despised him in her heart."

Don't judge too fast. It is easier to find fault with others than to look at ourselves. God is not interested in our judgment of others. Man's judgment is not going to affect how God looks at the person. We need to travel light as Christians. We need not carry these extra baggages in our walk with Him. Remember this, our judgment is not going to affect God and the person we judge but it is going to affect us. This root of bitterness in our lives will stop us from being fruitful for Him. Michal was barren as the result of being bitter towards many things in her life.

-----------------------------------------------

There are seasons for everything. Sometimes, we will not understand why God allows things to happen in a particular way. Good things we have prayed for and yet we do not see any results ...that might be a time of pruning. Time of pruning and testing is going to make our roots go deeper into Him. The Bible tells us about those lives who are not faithful in Matthew 25:14-30. In verse 29, "… for to everyone who has, more will be given, and he will have abundance; but from him who does not have, even what he has will be taken away." Always be reminded that we are all working in His vineyard. We are going to bear fruit for Him and not for ourselves. As we carry His presence on our shoulders as men and women of God, He is going to show forth Himself and awesome things will start to happen!!

hi God seekers,
here's this week's pictures!

do check out the upcoming events on the right side of the blog. (:

significance thru relationships,

Whether we like it or not, every one of us has a lifespan. Some people live long enough to see their great grandchildren but some don't. If we have an hour-glass in front of us that represents our life, seeing the sand going through the tiny little hole every second without stopping, we can imagine how fast time passes. A statistic has shown that an average person who lives long enough to 70 years old would have spent 23 years sleeping, 17 years working, 11 years in entertainment like watching television and playing computer games, 7 years traveling, 6 years eating, 3 years preparing or getting ready such as make-up and the last 3 years going to church
Time is life. We can choose to spend it, waste it or invest it.We can find significance in our relationships with others when friends and the people around us are blessed. Mother Teresa left a legacy in this world by giving her life to bless and serve millions of people in India and her name is well praised among all. Luke 18:18-24 tells us the story about the rich young ruler. He has done what was supposed to be done except only one thing, he was not willing to sell his possessions to bless the poor.

first key to find significance through relationships:
1) Bless others!

Don't be a taker. Be a giver! Jesus Himself has set the example by given His life to us for our sins to rescue us from the present evil age, Galatians 1:4 and 2:20 and He is remembered by millions of people! God Himself gave His only begotten son to die for us in John 3:16. God called Abraham who was a very wealthy man in his time to leave his country in Genesis 12:1-3 so that he can be a blessing to the nations. He is remembered as the man of great faith not only in Christianity but also in the other 2 great religions of the world, Judaism and Islam. How can we bless others? We can choose to bless others by serving them. Mark 10:42-45 tells us that in order to be great one must be the servant. Verse 45, even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve and to give his life as a ransom for many. There is a story about the people living in heaven and hell. In both places all people were seated at a banquet table laden with food however the forks and spoons had very long handles. In hell, the situation was messy because everyone was trying to eat with the long spoons and forks and they ended up being frustrated and hungry. The opposite happened in heaven. The people there have chosen to feed one another with the long spoons and forks and they were all happy and satisfied

Money spent can be earned but not our time! The choice is ours. We can choose to invest our lives in others and finding significance and fulfillment in this life or choose to spend it on ourselves. What is our mindset today? Do we want to be successful like the rich ruler in Luke 18:18 or to be significant in the lives of others? Success does not ensure that you will leave a legacy. If we live for success only, we will be frustrated men. Our primary goal in life should be to move from success to significance. The key is to be a blessing to other people! Give our lives, our time, our energy and our talents in helping others to become successful, happy and fulfilled!

(devotional archive from chc)

Dear God’s Seekers, let make a decision today to be a blessing to others. My prayer is that as we fall in love with God more, He will give us His nature to love and give to people and we will leave a legacy for His glory.

Blessings
Suzy
