How often do we think of our future?

How frequently do we think for ourselves?

Then, how often do we care for the Lord’s needs?

Do you even know that the all mighty God who created the heavens and the earth has a need?

If yes, again I would like to ask you, how much do we care for His need today on earth?

Luke 12:7 “But even the hairs of your head have all been numbered….”

Dear saints and friends, even our hairs have been numbered, which ourselves have never counted or could never count, what more is our future which we’ve counted over and over again. I’m sure the Lord has already counted and preordained it for us long before the foundations of the earth. Since our future is in His sovereign hands, what is there that we should be anxious and worried of? What we should focus on now is what the Lord needs and not ourselves.

I will elaborate further on this matter in the upcoming blog. As for now, there are lots of assignments and labs to be handed in for the following weeks. Not forgetting that the semester exams are around the bend. So, see you guys a few weeks later.

p/s. Ryan, you don’t have to worry about your hair anymore. ;p

Full Time Training Malaysia (FTTMY) graduation meeting

Well, I’ll keep things short, cause gotta study for psa. Test this coming Wednesday.

I attended the Full Time Training Malaysia (FTTMY) graduation meeting this afternoon. I was really reminded by what Br. Lee said to the graduates in the video. He said, each of us can be useful to the Lord. But in order for us to be useful to Him, we first need to be a functioning member of the Body of Christ. So, how do we become a functioning member? One of the ways is by preaching the gospel regularly, with a burden.

This really reminds me that I should not regard preaching the gospel as a duty. Instead, I should make it part of my living. Only then will I have the burden in preaching the gospel. O Lord Jesus, may the Lord gain each and every one of us to live for the gospel’s sake. Amen.

Following is a hymn I enjoyed during the FTTMY graduation meeting.

O Jesus Lord, You are my love,

My life, my hope, My all in all.

O Jesus Lord, I call on You,

Make home in me, Make me just like You.

Chorus:

O glorious indeed, I can serve my King!

No tongue can tell, No one ever know,

Yes, I’ve made my choice: My Lord and my God.

Consecration

Just came back from campus meeting, decided to blog about what the brother shared earlier during the meeting.

As young people in the Lord’s Recovery, we need to consecrate ourselves to the Lord in order that He can carry out His will through us. Dear saints, we need to be aggressive in this matter of consecration. Don’t be passive; grab hold of every opportunity to offer up ourselves for His Recovery. If we do not see this, it will be too late for us to do so in the kingdom age. It’s our right that we can consecrate for the Lord’s Recovery in this age of grace. We are old enough to bear such responsibility. May the Lord open our eyes and gain us for His Recovery. Amen.

p/s. don’t be the doraemon in the hole. No one can find you and change the battery for you.

What kind of person ought we to be?

2 Peter 3:10-11 " But the day of the Lord will come as a thief, in which the heavens will pass away with a roar, and the elements, burning with intense heat, will be dissolved, and the earth and the works in it till be burned up. Since all these things are to be thus dissolved, what kind of persons ought you to be..."

Following is a portion of words taken from the Ministry Magazine which i enjoyed,

" In our fellowship with the Lord we need to consider what kind of persons we will be at the end. Will we be persons in a holy manner of life and godliness? Will we...be found by Him in peace because we are right in the sight of God with everyone and everything? This is the way we want to end our course....Eventually, God's ultimate governmental dealing will be upon the material universe, which will dissolve in intense heat. Everything will be dissolved; nothing will remain. Then there will be new heavens and a new earth permeated with God's righteousness. Since this will happen, what kind of persons ought we to be? We must say, " Lord, we ought to become the reproduction of Christ."

Dear saints, in order to become a reproduction of Christ, we need to experience Christ as the One living in us, being formed in us and making His home deep down in our being so that He can spread from our spirit to all the parts of our heart. The more Christ spreads within us, the more He settles down in us and makes His home in our heart; in this way He occupies every part of our inner being, possessing these parts and saturating them with Himself so that we may be filled unto all the fullness of God. As Christ lives in us, is formed in us, and makes His home in our hearts, we become a reproduction of Christ.

O what a privilege that we can hear such a word in these days. Therefore, we must be the more diligent to pursue the growth and development of the divine life within us in this age. We don't want to be those who will be weeping and gnashing our teeth in the outer darkness.

Dear brothers and sisters in the Lord's Recovery, today, almost all of the high peak divine revelations are opened to us, are we willing to dive into them or do we prefer to be in that pitiful situation just like the others from the denominations when the Lord comes back?

May we all be encouraged to redeem our time, pursue and equip ourselves with the truth with those who call on the Lord out of a pure heart. The Lord be with us all. Amen.
