three days of the presence of God; salvations and healings commonly as one.

day 1

i was extremely excited about Rev Benny Hinn's healing crusade at the Singapore Indoor Stadium and i couldn't wait to experience and see God's amazing power displayed right before my very own eyes.

Rev Benny Hinn has his own entourange of body guards and most of them were formerly seals or marines. super tough looking and huge, their presence was greatly felt wherever they went. i was even stopped by one of them because he suspected that my pass doesn't belong to me =.-''

anyway, the healing crusade at day 1 was an eye-opener for me. on the first day itself, many people were healed by the power of God and touched by the presence of God. personally, i held 2 sisters when they stood up from their wheelchair.

when they started walking about, they were so overwhelmed that they kept repeating, i'm healed i'm healed!! thank You Jesus!!

even myself was overwhelmed and almost teared when i started to praise God with them.

Day 2

at the 4.30pm service, the presence of God was SO rich that i started to tear a little, though i was serving. during that period of time, i decided to focus only on God and don't bother about my surroundings. the presence of God came in such a mighty wave that its something i never felt before.

its like the Glory of God desending into the Indoor Stadium and when Rev Benny Hinn asked us to receive the anointing, the entire stadium was slain. i really wished that i fell under the power of God, but because we were serving, the security personnels didn't get slain.

but i believe that our Spirit Man received the anointing!!

even Rev Benny Hinn said that the presence of God was so rich that he never felt it so strongly before. praise God!! and with that, Rev Benny Hinn promised to come back near year, at the NATIONAL STADIUM!!

the power of God came and many were healed again! unusual miracles indeed and praise God because some received their salvation too!!

day 3

i felt really exhausted by now. for the past few nights, i've slept less than 8 hours. i really couldn't think fast enough and Venetia even said that i was stoning, which shouldn't be the attitude when i'm serving God.

when we're serving God, we MUST give our best shot no matter how tired we are. Pastor Kong sleeps very little at night, but we don't see him preaching with a stoned face. we serve God with all our heart and with joy! not with force!!

serving comes from the heart, not mind.

our physical body can be tired, so thats why the bible says that we must discipline our body so that we wouldn't listen to our body but instead, listen to our Spirit Man! this is something that i really need to work on and there's a verse that keeps appearing everywhere that says -

great are those who are humble in the kingdom of God, with childlike innocence and trust.

okie. its a mixture of 2 phrases but i'm sure that written somewhere in the bible, there's such a verse. i think that's my bible verse of the year, a rhema word from God, for this year.

to trust God with all my heart, with innocence and always expecting something different from God. not guessing what God would do, but just submit to His authority and will for my life.

serving in security now has a different meaning. usually we would know the flow of the service and what to expect, but with this word from God, i believe so that He wants to challenge and enlarge my capacity in Him.

i've a feeling that its gonna be tough, but i'll keep fighting the fight of faith. even when i'm walking through the shadow of death, i DO NOT fear because He's with me!
