AUG 08 POTS.
Pre POTS prayer meeting:
God To Me:
Pslam 27:8
Confirmation:
Pastor Wong announced Pslam 27 is to be used for tonight.
During POTS (Group Prayer):
Pastor Chin prayer for me and a 'New Assignment' from God is coming my way .... :)
Psalm 27:8 (Amplified Bible)
8You have said, Seek My face [inquire for and require My presence as your vital need]. My heart says to You, Your face (Your presence), Lord, will I seek, inquire for, and require [of necessity and on the authority of Your Word].
Psalm 27:8 (New Living Translation)
8 My heart has heard you say, “Come and talk with me.”
And my heart responds, “Lord, I am coming.”
I've noticed that God has been sharpening my 'sensing' over these weeks ... times has come for me to truely Seek him for and spend time talking to him to receive instructions for my New Assignment.
Praise Be To God!

God's promise never fails!
I can go for GE08 .... God never fails in his promises! Praise the Lord!
When God gives us a Promise:
It usually requires:
- Obedience
- Faith
- Action
He enables us to do all the above through the power of the HS that is already dwelling in us. To me his WORD is the clear guiding direction and source of encouragement for me as in my previous post.
Very often its The Flesh Vs The Spirit. Romans 7 14:25 briefly describes this struggle between the spirit and the flesh .. but we should always remember that the Victory is already ours!

GE08? God Encounter or Greatest Error I made?
God's promise:
You will make it for GE08.
Hence I paid in full for the camp ... believing in Faith his promise for me.
Situation:
Few weeks ago my Boss rejected my leave application for GE08.
My immediate reaction:
To take MC or not to take MC for GE08?
To Do:
Option (1) Take MC and just go for the camp (The flesh)
Option (2) Trust in the Lord and seek approval again (The spirit)
After much struggle I choose Option (2) today.
In the Morning:
Mark: Option (1) is the best.
God:
Proverbs 10:23 (New International Version)
23 A fool finds pleasure in evil conduct,but a man of understanding delights in wisdom.
In the Afternoon:
Mark: Option (1) is the best and least troublesome.
God:
Psalm 131 (New International Version)
A song of ascents. Of David.
1 My heart is not proud, O LORD,
my eyes are not haughty;
I do not concern myself with great matters
or things too wonderful for me.
2 But I have stilled and quieted my soul;
like a weaned child with its mother,
like a weaned child is my soul within me.
3 O Israel, put your hope in the LORD
both now and forevermore.
Proverbs 13:5 (New International Version)
5 The righteous hate what is false,
but the wicked bring shame and disgrace.
Mark: God you win!
I decided option (2) and minutes before seeking my boss i sought God and God re-confirmed:
Proverbs 3:5 (New International Version)
5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;
Did i hear God wrongly when he said I will make it to GE08?
In two days I will know if I can make it for GE08 ... while waiting ... keep the faith and cast any doubt away!
You will make it for GE08.

War ... Victory ...
Been a long time since Got woken up in the middle of the night. At 2am plus, was awoken with some fear, uneasy-ness but prayed with confidence in tongues and was lead to read Psalms 83 and Psalms 98.
Psalms 83 - War/ Protection/ Victory
Psalms 98 - Victory / Praise
When u draw closer to God .... the devil will always try to oppose you .... however ... live on this earth in Faith that the victory is already ours!
Psalm 83:18 (AMP)
That they may know that You, Whose name alone is the Lord, are the Most High over all the earth.

Listening To Him
Last night was our second meeting with the youth group. Its was a good time of sharing and ministering to each other. However, I should have released what God had told to and not hold it back doubting him and waiting for confirmation from others.... not the 1st time this happened ......
Luke 22:31-32 (New International Version)
31"Simon, Simon, Satan has asked to sift you[a] as wheat. 32But I have prayed for you, Simon, that your faith may not fail. And when you have turned back, strengthen your brothers."
Our Faith and trust in God is something which is so very important. If we don't act or speak it out when God prompts us too... there's nothing much he can do ..... and we end up looking back regretting.

Hebrews 12:1-2 (New International Version)
1Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. 2Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.
