It is officially four months now. Looking back I can really see the sovereign hand of Elohim working deeply and mightily in my life, leading me up until this very point. Truly it is a great blessing to be in the hands of Yahweh. Though sometimes the dealings of Yahweh in and through me are anything but pleasant, I have seen time and time again Romans 8:28 come to life in my very own life. Surely all things, whether for initial good or bad shall work together for good to them that love Elohim; to them who are the called according to His purpose. And praise Yeshua that not only am I called, I am chosen. Out of billions of people more capable than I, He chose me the least of all to abide in His house to serve Him before the throne night and day.
This year is truly that of change, first and foremost. It has only been 7 days and yet great changes are occurring in GP, Mantin as well as in Semarak. One major change is that one of the full time staff of Semarak had left for Sandakan. What to make of this though? On one hand it is on the pretext of setting up a prayer house in Sandakan, on the other he has no sense of spiritual authority. Even when Pastor Jean adamantly asked him to stay at least until the end of the upcoming seminar, he went and up off just like that. Sigh, well in the end Yahweh's great dealings tend to sift and divide between the tares and the wheats, the sheep and the goat. In the end, we must come to the realisation that we ourselves will not be able to remain steadfast until the end save by coming to Yeshua. We cannot hope to continue standing against the forces of darkness presiding in the world and those around us unless we have He who has overcome the world in us. Thus, no man is able to glory before Yahweh simply because they can't. No man relying on man can do the works only Elohim can do, we are called to rest in Him and He Himself will do it, period.
The second major change, well the full picture has yet to be revealed but in due time perhaps I will share when the issue irons itself out. Truly, praise Yahweh for what He is doing. As He gives, He takes away. What right have we to hold on to something that does not belong to us? All things come from Elohim through Messiah Yeshua. It is only right that all things should return to its Owner. As Job says, "What? shall we receive good at the hand of Elohim, and shall we not receive evil?" (Job 2:10b) Yet in all things, He does it for our own good whether we like it or not. Blessed be the name of Yahweh!
