Running With The Horses
Jeremiah 12:5 says, ‘If you have run with the footmen, and they have wearied you, then how can you contend with horses?’ This verse has been quickened to me on many occasions, especially as I was going through a difficult patch. Each time I felt the urge to complain, the Holy Spirit would bring it to my attention. The prophet is complaining about the ministry, and does not understand why some things were happening in his life. To which he’s […]
Perfect Will vs Permissive Will
Most Christians want to live and function in the will of God. They want to know who the right partner is, if they are in the right job, if they are in the right ministry. They want to know where to live, if they should have children, and how many children. Unfortunately, the majority of Christians often find themselves outside of His Will or perhaps in the permissive will of God. How do we align ourselves to His Perfect Will? […]
Living With An Unveiled Face
I don’t know of anything I desire or long for more than this. This is my one consummate desire – to see His Face. A face-to-face encounter with God is the longing of every saint in every generation, and His promise to us is we shall see His Face. While this is a future promise, the challenge is for us to appropriate it right here and now. We can see His Face and we must!
A Plumbline For The Singaporean Biblical Worldview
Is there a crisis in the Singaporean Biblical worldview? If the Lord would drop a plumbline to measure how straight the Singapore Church is, I wonder what we’ll discover. Will we be found wanting? And if so, what areas do we need to align with His Word? What would we be commended for, or rebuked? The Bible speaks not just of the judgement of individuals, but churches, and cities as well. Matthew 11 speaks of The Day of Judgement, where […]
The Grand Homecoming Party
The Great Homecoming Party reveals the heart of God in Luke 15, showing that heaven rejoices when the lost return home. The prodigal son’s journey demonstrates repentance, restoration, and the Father’s extravagant grace that restores full sonship, not partial acceptance.
The Gift Of Holy Curiosity
It’s staggering that Jesus asked a total of 339 questions recorded in the four Gospels. He knew all the answers, yet focused much of His interaction with people by asking them questions. If the One who knew all things asked questions, shouldn’t we be more curious? If we stop asking questions, we will find ourselves in the ‘LAND OF SETTLE’ and trust me, it’s a dreary place.
The Rapture Isn’t Late – It’s Right On Time
Once again, millions of Christians were deceived by the false hope of the Rapture that left many wondering if the Bible is true. Why are we so gullible as Christians? Why don’t we take a good long look at what Jesus had to say about the ‘Parousia’ or the ‘Translation of the Saints’, so that we’re not shaken by every wind of doctrine.
No More Powerless Christianity
The first Church in history found in Acts 2 was Pentecostal. There was no alternative or ‘Plan B’, and you couldn’t leave to be in a ‘non-Pentecostal’ church. Pentecostalism is not the fringe but the New Testament pattern of Christianity. Neither is it a denomination nor a doctrinal position. The Baptism of the Holy Spirit is an experience with God intended for every believer. May we never drift away from our Pentecostal roots!
Fulfilling Singapore’s Destiny As An Antioch Centre
60 years ago, Singapore was a sleepy trading outpost of the British empire at only 736 sq. km in size; with no natural resource, farmland, nor hinterland. Today, Singapore is a 1st world nation with a GDP of US$501 billion in 2023, ranked by IMF as the 4th richest nation per capita GDP in the world. WHY has God blessed us so richly, and in such a short time? How is this all tied to our call as an Antioch […]
The Lion of the East: Singapore’s Prophetic Mandate
Singapore is not called ‘Lion City’ by accident or coincidence – but because of our destiny. We were conceived in the mind of God as the ‘Antioch of Asia’, to be a testimony to the nations in this last hour. God’s plan will not be thwarted, but our continued prosperity and blessings depend on us fulfilling our destiny as a nation. What is God saying to the Singapore Church as we approach our 60th year of independence?
