Remembering His Goodness

We're nearing the end of the year 2020 in just a few days now and it's in these moments I recall back all the things that had taken place in my life, both the good and the not so. And all I have is to give thanks to Yahweh for once more leading me to the end of yet another year of being able to still continue to serve Him in the place where He has called me and I'm so grateful for that. The year most assuredly had its ups and downs however it all pales in comparison to my own personal journey with the Lord Yeshua and how He has brought me once more further and further and deeper and deeper unto Himself. 

As we are about to enter the new year in but a few short days' time and again as I remember what has transpired throughout this year, surely a lot has taken place even things which I would consider to be highlights and the lowlights of my time. However as I've said now the Lord Yeshua is bringing me to a point where everything else doesn't matter any more, even the things which I go through both the joys and the pains it all loses its glimmer in the light of His countenance. This truly has been the year where I could say I have come to such a personal level with the Holy Spirit that even when I feel like I'm making my own choices somehow it always turns out to be the leading of the Holy Spirit. 

As example of just recent events, we of Glory Place were invited to worship and share the Word of Elohim in Trinity Sanctuary AG, Semenyih this past Sunday. I for one had prepared myself to sing a few particular songs and was ready that day however the Holy Spirit had a different agenda. After the 1st Service I had received the call to prayer once again by the Holy Spirit and after much struggling and wrestling I yielded and allowed Him to wake me up to pray. I didn't get a wink's sleep that day and I was scheduled to worship in the morning in a different church?! Truly it is only Yahweh Himself that can take over now! And He did, the presence of Yahweh was so tangibly felt and the Holy Spirit was moving so powerfully that day. Throughout the night time I kept asking the Lord as to why and what I am praying for specifically but I had received no answer in that time other than to continue to wait and tarry with Him in prayer. It was only after the Sunday worship that He answered me and told me that He wanted to takeover and to do that He had to bring me to the end of myself even in the things I was enabled by Him to do. And so I praise Yahweh that He did thus, it could never have turned out as glorious as it did had he not taken over and it was just me. 

And even just yesterday once more there has been a breakthrough. While we were worshipping and just listening to the Word of Elohim last night our senior pastor, Pastor Jean sensed that the Holy Spirit was moving so mightily in our midst and in the midst of the nations, especially China. On that night itself there was a great leading of the Holy Spirit that I could count myself so blessed to be led by Him and to be chosen by Him. Let me explain: 

After the meeting was over, I intended to go back home to see my family so I had requested aunty Florence to not put me on the after meeting harp watch as I wanted to go back. She said okay, but just before the meeting began she mentioned to me that I should at least do 11pm-12am before I head back home to which I said alright. So it was around 10pm that the Holy Spirit began to move very powerfully although I couldn't really sense it or follow along. But I just believed that He is here in the midst of us and that He is bringing a great change in everyone of us present and online at the time. It was after much praying by different people to respond to His mighty move tonight that I went to do my harp watch at 11.20pm. And just seconds after I had begun the Holy Spirit began to speak through Pastor Jean again to us. 

"I've seen your cries and I've seen your patience especially those of you who takes the watches both for worship, prayer and reading My Word. Blessed are you because I shall work mightily in your life. It is not a coincidence that you have your watches because I am watching over you and I shall bless you and release you and set you free completely so that you may serve Me and worship Me and be a pleasure to Me. I remember you." (I'm paraphrasing the words spoken and while it was going on I was laughing and so joyous because I'm on watch exactly at that moment when the word was being released. So I took it for myself to which I believe it was meant for. Even aunty Florence saw that and told me I'm truly blessed by Yahweh.)

And it was only today that I sensed in my spirit a release. A release of what I do not know yet but this is a release that I've never experienced before. It felt like blocks of weights in my heart just fell and I was feeling so light and carefree. Everything that I have and know is of no concern to me and all that was on my mind was that I can just concern myself with being together with the Lord Yeshua just as it is His desire for so. 

Mark 3:13-15

[13] And He went up on the mountain and called to Him those He Himself wanted. And they came to Him.

[14] Then He appointed twelve, that they might be with Him and that He might send them out to preach,

[15] and to have power to heal sicknesses and to cast out demons:

John 17:24

[24] “Father, I desire that they also whom You gave Me may be with Me where I am, that they may behold My glory which You have given Me; for You loved Me before the foundation of the world.

Such is my calling, such is my pleasure, such shall be my life. Praise Yeshua for calling me unto Himself. What a privilege it is to serve Him and to give up my life for Him and His Word.

Grace

During the overnight once again I was going through something. I had felt that my sins had caught up with me and I just felt one kind, I didn't really have the heart to worship that night. Yes, I realise what the Word of Elohim says and speaks of, that anyone in Messiah is a new creation and old things have passed away. That there's no more condemnation to those in Messiah Yeshua who do not walk according to the flesh but the Spirit. I realised all these but yet the feeling persisted and persisted and I couldn't shake that uneasiness forming within me. But as I worshipped especially for the song John 4:23-24 the Holy Spirit once again spoke and ministered to me. As I was feeling weighed down by my own thoughts and mistakes He spoke clearly to me. "I didn't choose you to worship and serve Me because you were able to. I am the One Who makes you able to worship and serve Me. I don't choose the qualified, I qualify those I have chosen." 

It wasn't an audible voice by the way, but a clear cut of His Word in my spirit that I knew without a doubt that it was the Lord Yeshua Who had spoken to me just now. When He told me that gradually I felt as though wave after wave of His presence just coming upon me and cleansing me from all my thoughts and my sins. As I began to worship more I felt more and more released and set free and as we sang in the Spirit after John 4 I just felt so grateful and humbled that Yahweh would choose someone like me to be able to worship and serve Him all the days of my life. I felt that giving my entire life to Him was but the least that I could do for all that He has done for me. And He gave me this Word as well: 

1 Corinthians 1:27-31

[27] But Elohim has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and Elohim has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty;

[28] and the base things of the world and the things which are despised Elohim has chosen, and the things which are not, to bring to nothing the things that are,

[29] that no flesh should glory in His presence.

[30] But of Him you are in Messiah Yeshua, who became for us wisdom from Elohim—and righteousness and sanctification and redemption—

[31] that, as it is written, “He who glories, let him glory in YAHWEH.”

And when I received that word from Him I realised that He is right and just in all that He says and does. I am so humbled that despite all my flaws, the areas in my life that I still need a breakthrough yet He would still choose me and cause me to draw near to Himself by the blood of Yeshua. That despite all that I am, I can still stand in His presence with the hosts of heaven by His grace, mercy, and love towards me. At that point in time I am glad that I had chosen to serve the Most High, there's really no greater pleasure or place to go besides. Praise Yahweh for the breakthrough and for His Holy Spirit always with us in whatsoever we go through.

Once Again, Breakthrough

Just a quick update about what's been happening lately in my life and pursuit of the Most High and to attain to the oneness that is in Messiah Yeshua. During the previous Friday overnight 2 weeks ago as I was worshipping on stage I felt a very strong impression upon me by the Holy Spirit that in such times of revival and breakthrough like these that He wants me to fast and to seek Him earnestly like never before. So He has called me to fast for a lengthy period of time, for the month of December and Elohim willing until January 20th. That's actually a long time to fast and normally I'm not so keen as to be fasting ever so often. But I know that this is the prompting and the leading of the Holy Spirit because I would never have thought of fasting for such a lengthy period of time. So I have steeled and readied myself for this fast and I have already begun it actually with our monthly Staff and Helpers Fast & Pray. 

During the Esther fast I was feeling very, very irritated and annoyed. It was not that anyone had said or done anything to me but for two days ever since I woke up I just felt so annoyed and troubled in myself, there wasn't any peace nor any rest for me but I kept feeling like everyone and everything was getting on my nerves. It was almost to the point where I was just in a state of unrest and trouble. And I didn't know what it was, that was perhaps what irked me the most. Was it my character? Was it something that I had not settled with Elohim or with someone? Was it cleansing and deliverance taking place? Was it I was simply tired or didn't have enough rest? Despite it all, although I had such thoughts I had never once questioned leaving nor running away from the presence of Yahweh because I know in my heart that as long as I continue to persevere that I will indefinitely receive my breakthrough from Him. I was greatly soothed every time it was my turn to worship on the harp and particularly Daniel 7. As I kept singing it over and over again I felt the weights and the burdens in my heart being lifted from me. I almost didn't want to stop although the time for my watch and worship had come to an end. 

But this issue persisted against me until the last day of the Esther fast. Even after I had broken fast with dinner I was still somewhat annoyed and disturbed in my spirit. My breakthrough came as was promised during the recent Friday overnight just yesterday. I couldn't worship at all that night because I was just so out of it but as I cried out to the Holy Spirit to take over before we began to worship He responded and said that He will do so. After that I don't know how to explain but the way that I sang and worshipped that night was completely different. It was like I was looking at myself in a 3rd person view. I just saw myself worshipping and worshipping and as I just kept worshipping I was caught up. The Holy Spirit just took over and I felt such a release in my spirit that I could just relax and let the Holy Spirit lead the worship. Even as we continued worshipping for a long time I didn't even feel tired but rather the longer we did so the more I felt strengthened and refreshed. 

And then again while singing Daniel 7 the Lord answered me as to what was happening to me. He told me that He was cleansing me and then suddenly my eyes opened and I realised that over the course of this Esther fast I had been set free in another major area in my life. I won't say as to what it is but there was a time where I was addicted to it and had the desire to do it again and again but during this Esther fast the Lord Yeshua opened my eyes to see that He had set me free. I had no more desire for such things and even when I think about it, it becomes more of a burden than a boon to me and it turns me away from it. Amazing. 

I am free at last! After so long, it is done! And when He had told me that during the worship I felt a rush of His presence just fill me and such joy and thanksgiving burst forth from me because He has set me free. 

I am truly grateful for the times I can worship especially during the Friday overnight meetings because that's when I'd usually receive my breakthroughs looking back on it now. Despite what anyone may say, I will not let anyone deny me the work that the Holy Spirit does in my life. If all but me should receive something that night I would consider it to be a night worth remembering and giving thanks for because He has looked upon me and heard my cry and saved me again and again. Such an Elohim so mighty and awesome, is He not worthy of all our lives and our service every moment? 

Psalms 34:1-10

[1] I will bless YAHWEH at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth.

[2] My soul shall make its boast in YAHWEH; The humble shall hear of it and be glad.

[3] Oh, magnify YAHWEH with me, And let us exalt His name together.

[4] I sought YAHWEH, and He heard me, And delivered me from all my fears.

[5] They looked to Him and were radiant, And their faces were not ashamed.

[6] This poor man cried out, and YAHWEH heard him, And saved him out of all his troubles.

[7] The angel of the YAHWEH encamps all around those who fear Him, And delivers them.

[8] Oh, taste and see that YAHWEH is good; Blessed is the man who trusts in Him!

[9] Oh, fear YAHWEH, you His saints! There is no want to those who fear Him.

[10] The young lions lack and suffer hunger; But those who seek YAHWEH shall not lack any good thing.

Praise Yahweh!

Beholden to the Maker

I don't have much to speak of at this moment other than the fact the the days are being spent here quite enjoyably if I do say so myself. Although in a way what we're doing here everyday is but the same thing, really isn't it the same elsewhere or rather anywhere? The only difference is that because the Holy Spirit is involved everyday is new, fresh, exciting. And although we might be doing the same thing physically, as being led by the Spirit of Yahweh brings about new changes and delights each day. Everyday is a fresh anointing and a fresh encounter with the Lord Yeshua for me, here in Glory Place. 

The coming month of December holds many events and things to be taking place. Appropriate since we have now come to the end of the year and also the end of a decade. We begin to prepare ourselves to close this exciting year and begin a new one in the presence of Yahweh. And at the same time to remember the marvellous works which Yahweh had done and all the great promises which He had spoken He has fulfilled by His own hand and time. More so for myself that this year was truly exciting, although I didn't really go or travel anywhere but rather just stayed here in Glory Place for the majority of this year, I greatly benefited and enjoyed it. It allowed me to really take time and examine myself more and to find pleasure serving my Lord Yeshua in the things to which He had called me to. 

I have no regrets in my choice to serve Yahweh and no intention to deviate from it any time soon, but rather I have much hope for the days to come that they will be much more glorious and wonderful than they are now. In fact, having given my life to serve Yahweh I realise that as the years go by the glory, blessings, and riches, and every fulfilment of His promise toward me become a reality each time. The longer I continue the greater things I shall bear witness to because I am His. Praise Yahweh, that's it for me for this brief excerpt.

Quick Update

There's not much to write about at this moment. Maybe just as a quick update that everything is going swimmingly in Glory Place and I of course, am enjoying my time and my service to Yahweh. Although I do think that there is an incident I can journal down here... 

Last Saturday morning, 14th November 2020 at around 4am or so as we were worshipping the Lord Yeshua during our Friday Overnight prayer meeting a car rammed into our gate and completely mangled it. It was a drunk Indian man in his 30s out celebrating his god's festivity and was driving at breakneck speed. All of a sudden he lost consciousness at the wheel and swerved into our gate. Needless to say the damage was extensive, our left pillar was completely demolished and our metal gate literally flew a few feet forward into Glory Place. Some of the boys hurriedly went to check up on it but I couldn't as I was leading the worship. During that time I know that this is nothing more than the reality of spiritual warfare earlier that night we were coming against the gods that have held our Indian brothers and sisters captive for so long and have blinded their eyes to the true saving knowledge of Yeshua Messiah. And we know because it was plain to see and as clear as day that this is a retaliation of the enemy trying to shake the pot. So we once again took up our authority which we as believers all have in Yeshua Messiah to bind especially the spirit of death and bloodshed from working that morning. We realised life to flow and for Divine protection upon everyone who steps into the gates here at Glory Place, which I of course subtlely meant for the driver of that car. 

You wouldn't believe it but although the car was completely trashed, engine oil was leaking out and the car was folding in on itself; the driver himself although dazed and in shock was unharmed with only a small bruise on one of his arms. Praise Yahweh. He hears our prayers and protects His people and those to whom they cry out for. Such is His mercy towards His own children. Us. 

And also what is amazing to me is that in one day we were able to erect a temporary gate and to seal the breach in the wall. To me this is the anointing that the Holy Spirit has given us that we can experience the Word of Elohim coming alive everyday. Everything that has been spoken and written of in the Bible we are privileged to experience being made manifest before our very eyes. Praise Yahweh.

Revival Fire

You know we're living in exciting times and we are seeing the revival that has been promised all this time taking place right in our times and generations. Truly the glory of the latter will be greater than the former. I'm sure we all know what is exactly happening in the nation of North America but to us believers as I believe the results or even what we see is happening doesn't matter in the slightest at all. Revival is being birthed for and despite from the opposition of the enemy's camp we are going to see the glory of Yahweh revealed in and through each and everyone of us. 

Looking and reading back to all of the past revivals that have taken place before and to my own understanding most if not all of them were birthed through prayer of the saints of Elohim. Long, continuous prayer day and night and thus at the appointed time the revival fire came. But what I've noticed is that this was limited in the sense that only a region or a country or a city was found to be praying before the revival came. And although the effects of many of them permeate still throughout the world it never really had any lasting or eternal effect. True, I am not discounting the fact that it had truly caused a further expansion of the work and kingdom of Yahweh here on earth but what I'm trying to say is that it was always but a part of the body of Messiah that was directly in the revival work. 

But now, because of the current state of North America not just a part but the whole Christian world is praying for them right now, the whole body of Messiah regardless of denomination, doctrine, traditions, or beliefs are doing the one thing our Lord Himself in heaven is doing day and night for His saints: praying. We are in the midst of birthing revival that we have never experienced nor seen before until now. And this will not only be in America but as we believe the fires of revival shall spread all across the world and change the very course of this world. We are in the midst of the greatest work of the Holy Spirit that we have yet to seen. 

So even now there is a cleansing work that is going on. Things kept secret, skeletons hidden in the closets for many years are being dug up and exposed and all those deep hurts and complications overtime are being dealt with. And now is the time when the work of the Holy Spirit is truly cranking up His intensity and pace, it is on us to yield to it and be thoroughly cleansed. Truly it is as the Word says: 

Luke 8:17

[17] For nothing is secret that will not be revealed, nor anything hidden that will not be known and come to light.

Luke 12:2-3

[2] For there is nothing covered that will not be revealed, nor hidden that will not be known.

[3] Therefore whatever you have spoken in the dark will be heard in the light, and what you have spoken in the ear in inner rooms will be proclaimed on the housetops.

Love of Messiah

You know today I really came to understand perhaps a little bit more about the depth and the expanse of the love of our Heavenly Father for His sons and daughters. By His grace and mercy I have seen but a small glimspe, experienced but a fore taste of what the Bible calls love from the Divine. 

Ephesians 3:17-19

[17] that Messiah may dwell in your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in love,

[18] may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and depth and height—

[19] to know the love of Messiah which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of Elohim.

Just recently I was having an argument with one of my brothers and sisters serving here together in Glory Place (through no fault of mine, may I add. Well in the end when someone gets into an argument it takes two to do so, so partly I am...) and we both left that talk feeling quite unhappy with one another. I can't say for the other party but I particularly was feeling mighty hurt and offended at what was spoken to me and I had made plans to scorn the person the next day should I see them by not talking to me the whole day. Such plans I had but throughout the entire day I just kept feeling the touch of the Holy Spirit telling me to yield and submit and to reconcile but I fought back, I refused simply because I didn't know what I would say or do when I saw that person. Ultimately in the end it was my own choice that I chose to continue to harbor such feelings within me under the pretense that I would release said person just before the night ended, even when I didn't know what might happen. 

Anyways just before the 8pm meeting the person came looking for me and apologized for the things spoken out of emotion and that hurt me. At that moment my heart literally melted, I could feel it melting in my chest. Like the whole top layer of my heart just liquified and slid off my chest and instantly the moment I heard them say "sorry", I wasn't feeling angry or hurt or upset anymore but I just felt like I wanted to once again be friends with the person and have peace with one another. So we made up then and there and after the meeting just now as I was just meditating on the goodness of the Lord Yeshua in releasing such grace and love towards me and my friend that He suddenly said that this is His love towards His people. At that moment I cried, having not cried for a long time it felt good. It was tears of joy knowing that this is how the Heavenly Father feels and loves me. Everytime I stumble or sin or fall short of Him, though He may be hurt by what I've done He also is ready to forgive when we come to Him always for forgiveness. Anytime, any moment when we approach Him then He will remember our sins no more. No matter how large or how numerous the sins and shortcomings may be, all of it has been forgiven me already. I'm so blessed and amazed at the expansive love of my Lord Yeshua. 

Isaiah 43:25-26

[25] “I, even I, am He who blots out your transgressions for My own sake; And I will not remember your sins.

[26] Put Me in remembrance; Let us contend together; State your case, that you may be acquitted.

1 John 1:7

[7] But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Yeshua Messiah His Son cleanses us from all sin.

1 John 4:12

[12] No one has seen Elohim at any time. If we love one another, Elohim abides in us, and His love has been perfected in us.

John 16:27

[27] for the Father Himself loves you, because you have loved Me, and have believed that I came forth from Elohim.

Blessed be His glorious name which is exalted above all blessing and praise.

To Earnestly Pray For

There's nothing much to take note of at this moment for myself. I'm doing absolutely great in the Lord Yeshua. I'm enjoying my time serving Him in various means and ways and delighting myself in worshipping and ministering to Him daily night and day. Although at first I was a bit tired out but now everytime there is a refreshing and there is enjoyment and great pleasure coming before Him everyday. 

Perhaps now my greatest concern would be for my brothers and sisters in Messiah serving together with me here in Glory Place. Particularly the Choong family here. All of them are going through their own battles and struggles and I've seen now that there is nothing anyone is able to do to alleviate in the least for them. Talking doesn't work, to discuss, to counsel, to encourage, all of it that involves ourselves in it brings no avail. The most effective is of course prayer and I myself have seen the power and the reality of our prayers. They are close to my heart and it is my desire to see that all four of them able to breakthrough their situations, particularly now that there's such a stronghold in the mind that shuts out every other word and especially the Word of Yahweh. But praise Yahweh: 

2 Timothy 2:9b

[9b] but the word of Elohim is not chained.

Having spoken to them I realize that for a long time they have had their situations pent up within themselves until it came to a boiling point. And for a long time they have been using their own strength even in serving Elohim when it is clearly said in His Word: 

Romans 1:9

[9] For Elohim is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of His Son, that without ceasing I make mention of you always in my prayers,

Romans 7:6

[6] But now we have been delivered from the law, having died to what we were held by, so that we should serve in the newness of the Spirit and not in the oldness of the letter. 

 The Lord Yeshua has given me a burden for them and so I obey. I want to see them breakthrough and I write this not to speak about their situations per se but rather to remind myself again should I reread this that I am called to pray for them until the Holy Spirit takes over them completely. Sometimes it pains me to see what they're going through and that all that is needed is for them to rise up and not allow the enemy to subject them to such things. But in the end it's their stand, their faith, their choice to remain in it or to come out of it. All I can do is to pray and hope and continue to have faith. And doubt less I will see my prayers for them answered shortly, one way or another... 

But I really want to praise Yahweh that I am so privileged to be able to experience Him day after day. Everyday I see miracles, I see the Lord exalted and His Spirit taking over me gradually more and more. I am truly enjoying myself because the Lord is so real to me. When I speak to Him He answers me as you would to a friend and I have my counsel with Him and all my thoughts, concerns, even my complaints He takes it all when I pour out to Him and He gives me an answer of peace to which I may take heart to. I always leave from my communion with Him alleviated and refreshed. Praise Him always. 

1 Peter 5:7

[7] casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.

I won't be putting the different verses from the Book of Psalms into here since there's so many and doubt less that what David experienced so am I. Praise Yahweh.

Continue, Most Certainly!

Looking back at when I had last written anything I didn't realise that it's been more than two weeks now. I honestly didn't feel that it was two weeks but rather that it was just recently that I had written. Time is truly flying by very quickly now. 

As a quick update on what's been happening, Yahweh is truly refining us as He has spoken often in His Word and now we're seeing it come to pass right in the midst of us. 

Zechariah 13:8-9

[8] And it shall come to pass in all the land,” Says YAHWEH, “That two-thirds in it shall be cut off and die, But one –third shall be left in it:

[9] I will bring the one –third through the fire, Will refine them as silver is refined, And test them as gold is tested. They will call on My name, And I will answer them. I will say, ‘This is My people’; And each one will say, ‘YAHWEH is my Elohim.’ ”

Malachi 3:3

[3] He will sit as a refiner and a purifier of silver; He will purify the sons of Levi, And purge them as gold and silver, That they may offer to YAHWEH An offering in righteousness.

As I see all that is taking place in the midst of us I am truly grateful and thankful that I can still continue to stand in the Lord Yeshua. By His grace and mercy, I remain standing and faith unbroken to this day. Truly Elohim has prepared great and mighty things for us the likes of which no one can comprehend or fully understand except those whose minds have become the mind of Messiah. Those who have gone through the fire and the water will come out to their rich fulfilment in Messiah Yeshua. 

Psalms 66:12

[12] You have caused men to ride over our heads; We went through fire and through water; But You brought us out to rich fulfillment.

Psalms 84:5-7

[5] Blessed is the man whose strength is in You, Whose heart is set on pilgrimage.

[6] As they pass through the Valley of Baca, They make it a spring; The rain also covers it with pools.

[7] They go from strength to strength; Each one appears before Elohim in Zion.

I am truly reminded that it's not anything that I can do or say, neither is it who I am and what I represent and stand in. But it's all about Yeshua, He is the One that makes me stand and to continue standing to this day and He will be the One though He allows us to enter trials and tribulations, He will also bring us out of there into a greater measure of His fullness. So continue standing, continue believing because the promises which He has promised us will not become void but it shall have its end and fulfilment in each and every one of us. I speak this to myself inasmuch for those who are right now entering the time of their lives...

Spiritual Takeover

Truly the Lord Yeshua is good and His Holy Spirit is ever leading us and more so me. In His grace, mercy and great love towards me He is teaching me and taking over in a way that even I can tell that it is all Him and nothing of me. Just recently I've been corrected about the way I worship by my family, my leaders and my peers but I was obstinate, I was stubborn, and I didn't even knew that I was doing all of these things! But recently I was convicted by the Holy Spirit about this and He told me plainly to humble myself and learn from those around me because He wants to do the work and not me. So I yielded, I submitted to the Holy Spirit, I didn't know how He was going to do it but I just believed that somehow He will takeover and change the way I worshipped Him. And he did, praise Yahweh. All this happened over the course of this week from Monday to Wednesday, and on Thursday I'd receive my breakthrough for worship. Before we worshipped I once again committed myself to ask the Holy Spirit to takeover and at the very get go He did. I felt that the worship that night was completely different, I wasn't using an iota of my strength at all but I just a drawing of power and strength from deep within me. Even the way I spoke in tongues was no longer pushing it using my own strength but I felt so at rest, at peace, at ease. I didn't need to raise my voice to stir the worship team and congregation to worship but in fact the opposite occurred. The less loud and booming I was, the more harmonious the worship and voices became and the more everyone else worshipped. I was so rested that night and it just flowed and continued on like that whenever I am on worship now. I feel so at ease that it's no longer what I can sing or how loud I am or even thinking how the Holy Spirit's going to takeover. But I just rested and Yeshua was exalted. 

Philippians 2:13

[13] for it is Elohim who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure.

What's even more amazing was that the moment I received this breakthrough that the Lord Yeshua continued on with the next step in the will and work of Yahweh. Now, I'm given less time to worship because now different nations and Glory Places will be involved with the worship each night. Coincidentally (well, I can't really say that. It is all by the will of Yahweh and His good pleasure) the times when the nations will worship this week would be on Thursday and Sunday, days in which I should be worshipping. I'm not angry, not upset, not even a little perturbed but I am overjoyed because I can clearly see that this is His great love towards me. As though the Holy Spirit was waiting for me to breakthrough and precisely the moment I did He continued on with His work. I'm not even sad about less worship time, I'm just so in awe that it is as though the Lord Yeshua was truly waiting for me before moving on from glory to glory. 

Isaiah 30:18

[18] Therefore YAHWEH will wait, that He may be gracious to you; And therefore He will be exalted, that He may have mercy on you. For YAHWEH is a Elohim of justice; Blessed are all those who wait for Him.

Truly Yahweh is so good, HalleluYah.

Rest of the Spirit

There's not really much to write about for this month. Everything is going smoothly and well. I'm breaking through more and more and my walk with the Lord Yeshua is becoming quite exciting and enjoyable. I mean, it's always been but now it's even more so. Especially now that this truly is the season of the Holy Spirit and He is completely taking over everything. Now everyday even though I'm obviously working and ministering to Yahweh and just being here in His house of prayer, I can really feel His supernatural strength and endowment upon me. With almost every task at hand I'm needed to do whether it is worship or in the gardens or miscellaneous, it feels like I'm on autopilot or in the passenger seat of the car. With whatever work I'm involved in at the present time I can sense that I'm drawing power and strength not from myself but from within myself so I don't feel tired or exhausted spiritually. I mean, physically after hard work then of course I would feel fatigue but I don't feel drained any more but refreshed. Also now every time I step into the sanctuary to worship or pray or just hear the Word of Elohim I become refreshed, every single time. 

The Holy Spirit is truly taking over and it's not about what we can do any more. I believe that the moment we see the limitations of ourselves then the Holy Spirit can take over completely, when we come to an end of our strength or wisdom or experience then He will take over. Because if we can still do something then the Holy Spirit will do nothing, but when we can do nothing the Holy Spirit will do everything. 

John 6:63

[63] It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh profits nothing. The words that I speak to you are spirit, and they are life.

John 15:5

[5] “I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.

Philippians 2:13

[13] for it is Elohim who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure.

Honestly speaking this is the easiest I have experienced in my life, ever! By easiest I mean that I can draw from waters that never run dry and be refreshed always, I can continue serving Yahweh knowing personally that it is not what I can do for Yahweh or what I can say for Him. In actual He doesn't need me for His work to be accomplished but because He loves me He involves me in it and gives me the strength to carry out and fulfil His call and work and will. So now, it's no longer me trying to do something for the Lord Yeshua but it is the Holy Spirit Who will glorify Yeshua in and through me. All I need to do is rest in Him by faith. That's it. Praise Yahweh!

Quick Write

There's not much to write about right now. Everything is going exactly to how the Holy Spirit wants it to go so there's no real surprise there, but to say there's no enjoyment would be telling a fib in itself. Having our course planned for us removes the burden and the stress of what may be or what is to come and just allows us to enjoy the ride. Like riding in the passenger seat of a car. Having been a driver myself now for who knows how long I always need to look at what's around me to be aware since I am the driver and I can't really take in the views my passengers can enjoy since they're not the ones driving. But praise Yahweh that the Holy Spirit is my driver in a sense that I can now enjoy the things He has prepared for me as He takes the wheel and leads me whenever He wants me to go. So that's what I'm doing now, I'm just enjoying the ride. That's it, that's all...

5 Year Point

It's actually just one day before I mark it down as 5 years having begun serving the Lord Yeshua in this place here called Glory Place. Now reminiscing of what has taken place in my life and the things I've witnessed and experienced while serving Yahweh alongside my brothers and sisters in Messiah, I do not regret it nor have I any intention of slowing it down one bit. Things are truly picking up the pace even now as the Holy Spirit is moving in such a quick and brisk pace, completing the work that He had begun in each and everyone of us not just here but everywhere where the people of Yahweh are named. 

Even now I can clearly tell plain as day that the Holy Spirit is cleansing me in every areas of my life. This is something that I myself had always wanted to see for myself and now I am. In the areas where I still have yet to fully breakthrough He is taking it over one by one and completely setting me free to be able to give myself more to Him more and more everyday. For example in the area of music, I used to listen to Christian Rock because I had thought that since it was a Christian band then it was still fine but during the 10 days of the prayer advance my emotions were just going haywire and it nearly came to the point where I would have imploded and blown my top. But praise Yahweh He protected me and did not allow this to take place, because as I was reaching the boiling point the Holy Spirit revealed to me that although I had given up the world's rock music I had not yet actually confessed nor repented of it. So I did, and when I broke the curse immediately my emotions all soothed itself and I was in control once again. 

This is just one of the many areas He is concurrently working on in my life right now. As I see and remember I have been set free in many areas already but yet there is still much cleansing to be done and thankfully it is not what I can do myself to be good. 

Philippians 2:13

[13] for it is Elohim who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure.

I had not realised how timely this is, nearing the 5 year mark how quickly the time flies and things have changed. Seeing all my old posts I realised I had changed somewhat and it wasn't me myself that was the one striving to change to be a better person but it was entirely the Holy Spirit so all glory goes to Him. 

1 Corinthians 15:10

[10] But by the grace of Elohim I am what I am, and His grace toward me was not in vain; but I labored more abundantly than they all, yet not I, but the grace of Elohim which was with me.

It will only get better from here, as I continue to look unto Yeshua the Author and Finisher of my faith I can truly see His glory filling each and every one of us. Praise Him for all things He has given, that He has done, and for the greater things her to come. Truly, praise Yeshua. Halleluyah.

Liberation and Cleansing

This particular prayer advance has really been Spirit filled to say the least. Everything is being dug out from within our lives and the enemy is showing its face through different manifestations. Physical infirmity, emotional instability, spiritual dryness just to name a few but its not for just a few. At least to me I see that everyone is going through their own form of cleansing in one way or another, myself included. For myself I never really knew that I harboured deep hurts in my life but in the presence of Yahweh, when the Word was being released and the Holy Spirit was moving so I felt so many different kinds of ugly emotions just bursting forth from me for no apparent reason. Disgust, envy, hatred, resentment, sorrow, I just felt like vomiting although I didn't. As all these things came out there was a time when we were able to have the change to repent and ask the Holy Spirit for forgiveness for treating Him so shabbily and like a power and not as a Person, Elohim Himself living in us and with us as the Word says. So when it was my time I really cried and cried and as I cried I felt that everything was being released from within me. It was like a small drainage pipe was put into me and I could feel the emotions within me being drained out little by little throughout the day. By the end of the night I was so light and set free. 

And yet even now I can clearly tell that there's still more cleansing to be done in me. It's like the small residue at the bottom of the bottle that's always left whenever one finishes a drink. This is the opportune moment for me to really immerse myself and see it gone from me completely. Despite the theme of this advance being "Manifesting the Glory of Yahweh's Presence", the word that keeps coming to me is liberty. 

Luke 4:18

[18] “The Spirit of YAHWEH is upon Me, Because He has anointed Me To preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, To proclaim liberty to the captives And recovery of sight to the blind, To set at liberty those who are oppressed;

Romans 8:21

[21] because the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of Elohim.

2 Corinthians 3:17

[17] Now the Lord is the Spirit; and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty.

The Lord Yeshua wants to bring us into the glorious liberty of the sons of Elohim and for us to experience that we of course must be liberated from everything of the past especially the things which hinders us from breaking through. And this prayer advance I see that that is exactly what the Holy Spirit intends to do in each and everyone of us. It's going to be utterly stomach churning but in a good way, everything's coming out both physically, emotionally, and spiritually so that only Messiah will be left in each and everyone of us.

Wells Buried Unearthed

Today the prayer advance "Manifesting The Glory of Yahweh's Presence" begins and I truly am excited about it. The Holy Spirit is exposing all the deep hurts and uncleanness in me these past few days but really it all came to a climax last night when He revealed to me the areas in which I had hurt others through my words and my actions although I had never meant to in the first place. Really, it's been such a long time since I cried tears and as I just spent time asking the Lord for forgiveness and repenting of my wickedness the more I felt I was being released from all these things. Many times my actions and my words were harsh upon others and I didn't even realise it until it was too late. 

I'm not trying to put the blame on anyone when I say that I really appreciate those who can withstand me and tell me my shortcomings and mistakes. Because anyone can praise you but it really takes those who are really close to you to point out where you have made a mistake or have fallen down. Such people, I really appreciate them although sometimes I might not like to hear what they have to say to me about it but in the end it is for my betterment and improvement so such people ought to be held in high esteem. 

I don't like it when people characterise me. "Oh, that's just the way he is. There's no helping it, it's just the way you are." Dislike is the most polite, respectful word that I could use to barely describe how I feel when people tell me that. I really do want to change however most are content with complimenting and praising and then to murmur and say it can't be helped, when what is needed is for someone to tell me where my faults lie then I can change. 

Psalms 141:5a

[5a] Let the righteous strike me; It shall be a kindness. And let him rebuke me; It shall be as excellent oil; Let my head not refuse it. 

In the end, those are the kinds of people I value more than others because they contribute to my growth and walk with the Lord Yeshua and are not simply onlookers or yes-men. The advance will soon begin and I have been liberated, but yet I can feel intimately that the Holy Spirit is still digging up all the old hurts that I never even knew I had, and cleansing me with the blood of Yeshua, making me become truly a glorious vessel of His manifestation. Praise Yahweh.

Tree Felling; Continuation

We have entered the final preparation weeo before the prayer advance "Manifesting The Glory of Yahweh's Presence" begins. And we praise Yahweh that despite there not being so many people as in precious seminars and advances the work continues on and is being done. Truly we are witnessing the Holy Spirit taking over all the work, He is supplying us the strength necessary for each day as it may require and whatsoever is needed on that day. 

Just recently there has been high winds and heavy rain, so because of that the rubber tree in front of my room and the boys' kitchen have cracked from the roots and have begun to tilt, leaning precariously to one side. In my heart I am truly glad to see that this tree is going soon because in my heart this tree in particular has been a bane to me whenever I blow the leaves and keep the compound tidy. This tree in particular likes to be brittle and drop its rubber seeds and withered branches so it's a hassle to see this happen and I have to clean up after it. But it's happening now, this tree is going to go soon but not before I get a good night's sleep first. Which is now, praise Yahweh. 

-Thursday, 13 August 2020, 4 years 11 months 6 days, 0349

Wait, now that I get a good proper look at it in the morning, it's the wrong tree. This tree did nothing wrong, it's the other tree next to it that's been muddling the place I'm trying to keep clean. Oh well...

2nd Round of Fasting and Contemplation

So right now we're in the middle of our second Esther's fast during this 21 days and right now I'm not even sure what to expect. There isn't much to be said at this moment in time for myself but I can tell that when our prayer advance begins near the end of this month of August surely great and awesome things will be taking place. You know as of recently there have been an influx of more and more people hearing about our online meetings and wanting to join us. And what is amazing is that despite us not reaching out per se for others to come and join us, people are still hearing about us and not only around Malaysia but different nations as well. Pastor Jean was timely as I perceived it, speaking about revival and how in these last days that Yahweh is preparing we His people to receive more and more people into the kingdom of heaven and the household of faith. But to be ready means to be completely taken over by the Holy Spirit and so sensitive to His leading and guidance and teachings. 

I'm actually getting really excited for this upcoming prayer advance. I truly believe that this is the time that we will "Manifest the Glory of Yahweh's Presence" like never before and that the Holy Spirit will really take over those who are eagerly waiting for Him to do so. Truly we are on the precipice now of something great and it is ready to be birthed forth through much prayer, worship, fasting, and the Word and presence of Elohim. Praise Yahweh.

21 Days Fast, 3 Days Times 2

We're fasting now for the upcoming 47th National Prayer & Intercessor's Ads NCS called "Manifesting the Glory of Yahweh's Presence" and we'll be partaking in a 21 day fast to prepare ourselves physically and spiritually for it. And in the course of these 21 days we'll be having 2 or more Esther's fasts as well, meaning no food and water for 72 hours. And what's more it will be back to back! As I write this we are already in the last 24 hours for the first Esther's fast and next week we'll be resuming it once again, what joy eh? 

Honestly speaking, I haven't yet come to the level of fully enjoying the fasts. I mean I understand its benefits and appreciate it much but I do not relish going into it because I know what's going to happen. Cleansing, deliverance, everything that is in the heart will just be exposed because as the flesh is made weaker the spirit is made stronger and everything within is made known to all. Not just for myself but for everyone who partakes in these fasts, after all... 

Isaiah 58:6

[6] “Is this not the fast that I have chosen: To loose the bonds of wickedness, To undo the heavy burdens, To let the oppressed go free, And that you break every yoke?

We have a song about it now, although we haven't sang it yet. But going back to what I was saying, it seems that in this particular area my mind needs to be renewed some more to the point I can actually look forward with joy to fasting. I look forward to the end, but everything leading up to it not so much. May Yahweh have mercy on me because I am found lacking in His sight, there's still so much more for me to grow into in Him. 

One thing is that during fasting the spiritual warfare is very real. As the flesh weakens our connection to the physical also weakens and we become more sensitive to the things happening spiritually. Because of that, the warfare becomes intensified and when there is seemingly no strength, this is the time where we truly learn what it means to fully trust Elohim for all things. 

Zechariah 4:6b

[6b] ‘Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,’ Says YAHWEH of hosts.

Isaiah 59:19b

[19b] When the enemy comes in like a flood, The Spirit of the YAHWEH will lift up a standard against him.

Even so today the enemy was really bombarding me with so many different thoughts and accusations and condemnations that my mind felt like it was so heavy and on fire but praise Yahweh that as I persisted in the presence of the Lord Yeshua and continued to read His Word I was set free. My mind returned to its clarity but the heaviness and oppressive heat, like the heat of a midday sun beating straight down on me was still there. But praise Yahweh that when it was time for me to worship just now with the harp I was completely set free. Praise Yahweh. There were so many times that I just felt I wanted to run away from the sanctuary but I knew that this was the enemy within me coming out and being exposed. So as I continued to stay in the presence of Yahweh and read His Word and worship Him, the breakthrough came. Now it's as though I'm not fasting, meaning that while I am fasting I am neither hungry nor thirsty but instead I feel full and sated. That's the power of the Word of Elohim for you. 

Matthew 4:4

[4] But He answered and said, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of Elohim.’ ”

We also have a song about this. Truly praise Yeshua for His mercy upon me. I'm not there yet, not by a long shot and yet He continues to look upon me favourably and keeps me in all my ways. Truly this is His grace and love towards me. Praise Him.

Anticipation

My goodness, it's been a really long time since I've updated. What I've spoken has indeed come to pass, the trials and the tribulations are here. The enemy like I've mentioned likes to come and intrude when we are at our highest because that's when our guard is the lowest. But if you are watching, praying and are ready when he comes then you will not be caught unawares but you will be ready to stand and face him. Well, the good news is that I did that but still I was still found lacking, having chinks in my armour here and there. I wasn't fully prepared and because of that I really had a time of spiritual warfare. The incident I'm referring to happened only just yesterday. Having been riding the high hills of Yahweh I was having the time of my life but because of that high I was careless with my words and inevitably went up causing offense and misunderstanding to occur with my carelessly spoken words. But I praise Yahweh that everyday I have watches on the harp (worship) and the bowl (prayer & intercession) so I have every opportunity to make right with Elohim and with the people I've wronged with my words and I did and boy, does it feel good... 

When I carelessly blurted out my words I realised I couldn't take it back, even if the people knew that I didn't mean it the damage was done already. The sword cuts deep and deep wounds need time to heal but the healing process is sped up in the presence of Yahweh. I felt quite perturbed and uneasy until I made right with the Lord Yeshua for simply mouthing off my words like that and having made right with those I've hurt, I was finally set free from the knot in my stomach and oppression in my mind. Praise Yahweh. 

It really just goes to show that everything the Bible speaks of and the Holy Spirit brings to our remembrance is true, every single one of it. Especially when it regards to our walk with Him, He warns us of every pitfall, every trap and snare, every hurdle that runs our way and He gives us the means to escape and overcome each and every single one of them. 

1 Corinthians 10:11,13

[11] Now all these things happened to them as examples, and they were written for our admonition, upon whom the ends of the ages have come.

[13] No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but Elohim is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it. 

Really I want to praise Yahweh that all things work together for good to them that love Him, to us who are the called according to His purpose. And I praise Yahweh that (and this is personally for me more than anyone else) majority of my warfare and my struggles have a one day time period. As it comes I know that as I continue to fight the good fight and to stand on the Word of Elohim, within a span of 24 hours majority of them will be resolved. Such a wonderful mercy the Lord Yeshua has given me and to which I will always remember. 

Psalms 30:5b

[5b] Weeping may endure for a night, But joy comes in the morning.

Isaiah 21:11-12

[11] The burden against Dumah. He calls to me out of Seir, “Watchman, what of the night? Watchman, what of the night?”

[12] The watchman said, “The morning comes, and also the night. If you will inquire, inquire; Return! Come back!”

Praise Yahweh.

The Hiding Place

It's been yet another week since I had last written but again there's not much else to write about at the moment. Everything is going smoothly and well but that just means that I need to stay on high alert and keep my guard up at all times. Because it is usually when I'm at a high point that the enemy likes to come in and sweep the rug from under my feet. In fact I've been noticing that that's become a trend that the enemy, that it is usually when we have just experienced breakthrough or something miraculous then the enemy will always come in to attack. When we relax after a victory in warfare then that's when the deadliest of strikes come, when we let our guard down. So that's why now after many times falling for the same trick over and over again, I've finally learnt through arduous experiences to keep my guard up especially high during the times of peace and rest in Yahweh. 

You know everyday I've been experiencing the great and awesome presence of the Holy Spirit leading me and guiding me every step of the way. Everyday He empowers me to go through the work given to me with joy and gladness and everyday He refreshes me and takes over the worship during the night sessions when we meet. And everyday He speaks to me and reveals more and more things, everything that the Bible says concerning Him is true. 

John 14:16-17

[16 ]And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever—

[17] the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you.

John 14:26

[26] But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.

John 15:26

[26] “But when the Helper comes, whom I shall send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, He will testify of Me.

John 16:13-14

[13] However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come.

[14] He will glorify Me, for He will take of what is Mine and declare it to you.

This is the season and the time for us to draw closer to Elohim. He has given us His Holy Spirit as a witness and the seal of our hope for eternal salvation through our Lord Yeshua Messiah. In Yeshua we have the fullness of the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit, being made complete and perfect in Him. As such, we should make full use of the fact that we are so close to the Lord Yeshua now and draw deeper and closer to Him. Because the days are coming when our relationship with Him will be put to the test and through the daily trials and troubles that we have. The enemy will only intensify themselves against us so we must go deeper into the Lord. 

Psalms 32:6-7

[6] For this cause everyone who is godly shall pray to You In a time when You may be found; Surely in a flood of great waters They shall not come near him.

[7] You are my hiding place; You shall preserve me from trouble; You shall surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah

Mount Zion

There isn't much to write other than the fact that everything is truly glorious. I cannot begin to explain or describe the exceeding joy that I am experiencing right now as I write this. As I write and remember what has transpired for the past week and prior to that such joy just wells up from within me. I am truly glad to be a son of Elohim, and to dwell in the house of Yahweh and to serve Him all the days of my life. 

Everyday the glory of Yahweh is being poured forth abundantly in such great measures and I am so blessed to be able to be here right now. In this generation, in this time and right now at this place and moment in time I can bear full witness to the confirmation and the glorious revealing of my Lord Yeshua Messiah, in me and in all of us here at Glory Place. When I remember especially the works of Yahweh that He had manifested already in my life and the great work He's doing in me I cannot help but smile and rejoice. Because I remember, as He has brought into my remembrance what He promised me when I first began my journey now He is bringing it forth and it is glorious to behold indeed. Everything and I do mean that. Our Lord Yeshua is faithful, even when many times I must confess that I have doubted or thought it was misguided. 

Because of that I am so glad and I rejoice that I can be found in His presence and that now my fruit is found in Him. 

Hosea 14:8b

[8b] I have heard and observed him. I am like a green cypress tree; Your fruit is found in Me.”

And when I read I begin to understand more and more the story of Jacob turned Israel. From a deceiver, supplanter turned Elohim contended, Wrestled with Elohim, Triumphant in Elohim. And when I read his prayers I find that I can relate to that because having started out knowing not one single thing about my Lord but being superficial about it, I now have become so intimate with Him and everyday now He is here with me. Even now.. Praise Yeshua. 

Genesis 32:10

[10] I am not worthy of the least of all the mercies and of all the truth which You have shown Your servant; for I crossed over this Jordan with my staff, and now I have become two companies.

Words Spoken, Words Confirmed

Everything is going swimmingly. With every night session that passes the anointing and the glorious presence of Yahweh gets stronger and stronger and more tangible than ever before. With every session it's even more easier to tap into the presence of the Lord Yeshua and to be able to worship Him freely taken over by the Spirit. The end is coming now and soon everything that is written in the Bible will come to pass and it is our pleasure to see it take place before our eyes. 

The durian season is almost over now. As we wind down for the next few days we no longer need to rise up as early as 7.00am to go and pick durians, now we can wake up at 8.00am instead! Hallelujah. This season has been special because throughout this entire season only the good trees had been bearing good fruits and I'm not sure whether I've mentioned it in a previous post but we also now have a new tree that has been bearing excellent qualities of durians for us and also in quantity as well (I just remembered, yes I did...). During this season I've seen many miracles of healing, divine protection and divine provision by the Lord Yeshua for us, especially during the times where we needed the fruits to bless others. Whenever there was a need for an influx of durians we would pray and true enough in a morning collection we would collect more than enough to satisfy the quota and have extra in balance. And this is only in the morning, another team would also go up in the afternoon for an equal amount so we have been divinely provided for all the time. Another recent one would be when Pastor Jean out of the blue asked us for a fresh durian from the new tree but there were only 4 left on it and it didn't look like they were going to drop any time soon. I remember discussing this with uncle Sam day at 2.00pm just before my harp watch at 4.00pm. When we heard the news we immediately went to the tree and prayed and cried out for Yahweh to shake the tree so that a fruit will fall just for Pastor despite the tree although having fruit on it have not dropped any for a while already. Praise Yahweh that at the end of my watch at 6.00pm and just when the pastoral and leaders meeting had just ended as well, we found that one fruit freshly dropped just for Pastor. 

It is beyond doubt that we serve and worship the living Elohim Who created the heavens and the earth and fills them with Himself. 

Genesis 14:19

[19] And he blessed him and said: “Blessed be Abram of Elohim Most High, Possessor of heaven and earth;

Jeremiah 23:24

[24] Can anyone hide himself in secret places, So I shall not see him?” says YAHWEH; “Do I not fill heaven and earth?” says YAHWEH.

It is beyond doubt that He heard and answers prayers and the cries of His people. 

Psalms 20:1

[1] May YAHWEH answer you in the day of trouble; May the name of the Elohim of Jacob defend you;

Psalms 145:19

[19] He will fulfill the desire of those who fear Him; He also will hear their cry and save them.

It is also doubtless that whatever He has spoken will come to pass no matter how long it may take for it to do so. 

Genesis 28:15

[15] Behold, I am with you and will keep you wherever you go, and will bring you back to this land; for I will not leave you until I have done what I have spoken to you.”

Ezekiel 12:25

[25] For I am YAHWEH. I speak, and the word which I speak will come to pass; it will no more be postponed; for in your days, O rebellious house, I will say the word and perform it,” says the Lord YAHWEH.’ ”

Ezekiel 12:27-28

[27] “Son of man, look, the house of Israel is saying, ‘The vision that he sees is for many days from now, and he prophesies of times far off.’

[28] Therefore say to them, ‘Thus says the Lord YAHWEH: “None of My words will be postponed any more, but the word which I speak will be done,” says the Lord YAHWEH.’ ”

Why I say this, perhaps I'll share in another time and in another season. For now, we all must know that everything and I do mean everything that He has spoken about us and our lives shall all come to pass. One way or another... Praise Yahweh.

Durians and His Spirit

So we are now in the second week of the durian season here at Glory Place once again and this time around, at least for me; the workload has increased by plenty. We start our mornings at 7.00am to pick the durians and then we continue with our daily duties up until 2.00pm. From there we rest and then the boys together, we take the harp, bowl, and Bible reading watches from 4 - 6.00pm every weekday as long as we're working. After that we have our dinner and get ready for the night meetings which go from 8pm - 12am and more as the Spirit leads us. Soon after we have some free time before lights out and we get ready for the new day ahead with all its joy and challenges together. 

Honestly, although the workload has increased exponentially I don't really feel tired at all. What I mean is that although my body may be fatigued but my mind and my spirit still remains sharp despite there being close to no time to fully rest before the next event begins in our hectic schedules. It truly is the Holy Spirit of our Lord Yeshua taking over. I remember praying over and over and over again to have the Holy Spirit just take over my life entirely so that I will not need to expend myself and expend my strength. I can testify as we have begun to really go into overdrive now that He has taken over. Although my body may feel fatigued but every time without fail when we gather for the night sessions and as I soak in the presence of Yahweh my body becomes refreshed as though it had a nice, long rest. It is biblical... 

Acts 3:19

[19] Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, so that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord,

And this time around all the durians that we have been harvesting and collecting have been good. Usually there would be a few slightly off fruits here and there, but for this season it's been nothing but the best. In fact, according to uncle Sam 15 years ago he had planted a durian tree which then grew but never bore fruit for many season. It was just a large tree with no fruits to show for itself. But after he was called to return by the Holy Spirit to Glory Place, this particular tree now bears much fruit. In fact, the fruit that it gives is classed as one of the best that we have now. Praise Yahweh. 

As the whole world continues to turn round and round, slowly sinking into a cesspool of wickedness and rebellion; the Lord Yeshua is turning up His anointing, His presence, His work. With every session that passes I can sense that truly the anointing and the presence of our Elohim is manifesting stronger and stronger still. All this must come to pass and all this points to the fact that He is nearer to us now than when we first believed. 

Daniel 12:8-10

[8] Although I heard, I did not understand. Then I said, “My lord, what shall be the end of these things? ”

[9] And he said, “Go your way, Daniel, for the words are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.

[10] Many shall be purified, made white, and refined, but the wicked shall do wickedly; and none of the wicked shall understand, but the wise shall understand.

Haggai 2:6-7, 9

[6] “For thus says YAHWEH of hosts: ‘Once more (it is a little while) I will shake heaven and earth, the sea and dry land;

[7] and I will shake all nations, and they shall come to the Desire of All Nations, and I will fill this temple with glory,’ says YAHWEH of hosts.

[9] ‘The glory of this latter temple shall be greater than the former,’ says YAHWEH of hosts. ‘And in this place I will give peace,’ says YAHWEH of hosts.” 

The days are coming now, where everything shall come to a climax and soon the world must choose their sides. But praise Yahweh that we are with Him and always with Him, to our Lord Yeshua be the glory. Hallelujah! Hasten your work, o Lord!

Glorious Imminence

The glory of Yahweh is really being poured out night after night, meeting after meeting. And it's only increasing with each and every single day. And because of His glory which we are now seeing we too are all being transformed one way or another. 

2 Corinthians 3:18

[18] But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the YAHWEH, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the YAHWEH.

Even just recently I can sense in my spirit that I am changing once again. Being in the presence of the Lord Yeshua day and night is really doing wonders for me and my walk with Him. He's been exposing the deep hurts and darkness in my life that even I had not know were there, He's granting me more and more desire to read and study His Word, He's causing me to be so in tune to His Holy Spirit, and He's been empowering me with strength and much more. Everyday here at Glory Place now is truly as its namesake, the glory of Yahweh is here and He is in the midst of us. Even the young children are catching the revival and the awesome, tangible presence of Yahweh. 

The Yahweh is at last bringing to pass what He has promised so long ago. 

Haggai 2:9

[9] ‘The glory of this latter temple shall be greater than the former,’ says the YAHWEH of hosts. ‘And in this place I will give peace,’ says the YAHWEH of hosts.” 

Acts 2:17-18

[17] ‘And it shall come to pass in the last days, says Elohim, That I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh; Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, Your young men shall see visions, Your old men shall dream dreams.

[18] And on My menservants and on My maidservants I will pour out My Spirit in those days; And they shall prophesy.

The time is now dear readers, where we must learn to quickly tap into His presence and allow Him to change and transform us. Because now the entire world is broiling over and everyone will soon be seeking for refuge for whatever comes next, but we praise our Lord Yeshua that He has made Himself a refuge and a strength for all those who put their trust in Him. 

Isaiah 4:4-6

[4] When YAHWEH has washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion, and purged the blood of Jerusalem from her midst, by the spirit of judgment and by the spirit of burning,

[5] then YAHWEH create above every dwelling place of Mount Zion, and above her assemblies, a cloud and smoke by day and the shining of a flaming fire by night. For over all the glory there will be a covering.

[6] And there will be a tabernacle for shade in the daytime from the heat, for a place of refuge, and for a shelter from storm and rain.

Isaiah 25:4a

[4] For You have been a strength to the poor, A strength to the needy in his distress, A refuge from the storm, A shade from the heat; 

The time is now, where we must learn to fully immerse ourselves in His presence more and more because He is real, He is alive, and He is coming again very, very soon. 

1 John 3:2

[2] Beloved, now we are children of Elohim; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is.

24

I'm 24 now. It's been an adventure, a journey to remember indeed. I've noticed the previous posts I've made in my blog and I see the progression, the upbringing, the experiences, the highs and lows, gaining and losing many things. I've had such an exciting journey especially since being born again all those years ago and now here I am serving my living Elohim and I gladly do so. 

I praise and worship the Lord Yeshua Who has called me into His service and His presence. That I can spend my time just learning from Him by the spirit. And perhaps the most important thing that I've seen progressed throughout my time spent, especially now when I'm 24 is that I've learnt to hear the voice of the Holy Spirit speaking to me. Whether by others, His Word, situations around me, or even just by His still small voice I realise that He is always there and He has never left me alone. I give the credit to my Lord Yeshua firstly that I am who I am now because of Him and His guidance. Of course, there is my family and friends who have spurred me on to continue to serve and be fervent for Yahweh, they have my sincere thanks and gratitude too. 

But it is well that once again I am reminded that even though I have received so much I still have much to learn. That sobering that truly is what continues to urge me on, I desire the fullness of Messiah and all His riches, glory, splendour and majesty. His life more so I want to become my life and that He will be seen in me and not me myself be known. And I thank the Holy Spirit that He has been the One guiding me along all this time. Even now actually, He has revealed to me that I still have undesirables in my life and that I must resolve them before I can continue forward with the next step. And by His grace and mercy that is what is happening now. There's been a change, but Elohim willing I would like this to be a permanent fix and not just something that comes and goes. Thankfully now, its: 

Zechariah 4:6b

[6b] ‘Not by might nor by power, but by My Spirit,’ Says YAHWEH of hosts.

Hallelujah. I have much to look forward to because the blessings of Yahweh makes one rich and He adds no sorrow therewith. Praise Yeshua.

Cleansing The Temple

The Cleansing The Temple seminar is over but honestly it feels like an everyday, ordinary day to me. What I mean is that as soon as the seminar is over there was no rush for people to go back home or to the airport, no huge clean up to do, no extra work to finalise and to complete but we just had dinner, rested for a while and continued with the regular night meetings. It was simply like every other day and that truly amazes me. It's come a long way already that now even sitting in from 9.00am until 5.00pm and then from 8.00pm until midnight or so becomes no more a hassle or a chore but a longing and a delight to look forward to. 

I truly am amazed at what Yahweh is doing in the midst of us that we are able to day and night soak in His presence and allow Him to change and transform us into the image and likeness of His Son, Yeshua Messiah. This seminar has truly been enjoyable for me because I hardly had any work at all, the most that I had to was to man the laptop and the projector besides the usual times to worship. Other than that, day in and day out I can sit here in the sanctuary and just immerse myself with the Word of Elohim as it's being shared by Pastor Jean and the young people. It was so much fun. 

Really, thinking back on all these times I can see the sovereign work of the Holy Spirit in my life. I remember the times where I would get so bored and tired during these long hours and just dozed off again and again but now I have found such joy, contentment, and enjoyment with just sitting down for nearly half a day doing nothing but worshipping, praying, reading His Word, waiting upon Yahweh and other things as the Spirit leads us. It's so exciting. But more so I realise once again that inasmuch as I have gained so much that there is still so much more for me to receive and to learn. I have not attained to it yet, but everyday there is opportunities to tap into His presence and receive thus. 

These 5 days have really zoomed by like nobody's business, and I found myself enjoying every moment of it. Praise Yahweh, in fact the longer I stayed in the presence of Yahweh the more I felt my mind becoming loosed and relaxed and at peace with myself. No longer always thinking so much that my mind and my attention is elsewhere but I could just concentrate on the Word being shared and receive to the fullest. Hallelujah. Truly this was Cleansing The Temple. And having it during the lock down enabled me to lay aside so much work and just be in His presence. How awesome, praise Yeshua.

Seeking Yahweh

There isn't much to speak of at this moment in time. But perhaps one thing is that the times and the seasons are changing again and soon enough the changes this time around will truly be life changing. So the need right now is to seek Yahweh for His good way and allow His Holy Spirit to lead and guide us all. The coming of His Son Yeshua Messiah is very soon and every day I can sense the urgency of the times and understand the need of it to seek Yahweh and to always remain in His presence. 

Now is the time to hold our tongue and to wait and see what the Lord Yeshua shall do in but a few short days ahead. 

Isaiah 26:20-21

[20]Come, My people, enter your chambers, And shut your doors behind you; Hide yourself, as it were, for a little moment, Until the indignation is past.

[21]For behold, YAHWEH comes out of His place To punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity; The earth will also disclose her blood, And will no more cover her slain.

It is also appropriate that we are fasting in these times as well, truly the Lord Yeshua is giving every and all opportunity to return and seek Him in these last days. 

Revelation 3:20-22

[20]Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me.

[21]To him who overcomes I will grant to sit with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne.

[22]“He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.” ’ ”

Seeking Earnestly; Continuation

The MCO will soon be ending, Elohim willing; next week's Tuesday and for one I am looking forward to cutting my long hair, it's rather getting in the way during the times where I tend to the gardens of Glory Place. But beyond that there isn't much to write about other than the fact that we are drawing nearer to the halfway point of 2020 ever so quickly and when that time comes, Elohim willing; nothing will be the same ever again. 

Well, after the lockdown is over nothing will ever be the same already. The world can never go back to how it once was because of this pandemic but in the way I see it that's a good thing. For the rest of the world it will only become harder and harder and more vexing, but for the people who know their Elohim shall be strong and carry out great exploits. 

The meetings going on daily are really picking up pace with each session the presence of Yahweh just multiplies and grows exponentially. We really are on the cusp of something wonderful and it is Elohim Who has prepared it for those who love Him and long for the coming of the Lord Yeshua Messiah which is imminent. 

As for myself as I see my own birthday approaching during the halfway point of this year once again I am really seeking Yahweh for His guidance and leading in the days to come because I believe that something amazing is about to occur. What it is is anyone's speculation but regardless I truly feel the stirring to seek Him diligently for the days ahead. And such I have been doing so for the past 2 months. This lockdown was timely because it allowed me to really be still and focus my entirety on worshipping and ministering to Yeshua. The call is sounding and it is time to seek Yahweh until He comes and rains righteousness on us. Praise Yeshua. 

-Wednesday, 6th May 2020, 4 years 7 months 29 days, 1728

Well now, having written this I think that the Lord Yeshua is confirming the words of His servant. Because for this entire night now I just couldn't sleep, I tossed and turned and was so restless. I thought at first that I had slept too much today but that wasn't the case, I had only slept for a couple of hours only today and so in the night I was just awake on my bed, eyes wide open. The more I remained in my room the more restless I became, I was also struggling with Yahweh about this because I needed to wake up early tomorrow for the morning watch at 8.00am so I needed the rest but apparently not. After a while of struggling with the Lord I finally yielded and went to the sanctuary to read some Bible and wouldn't you have it the moment I entered the doors I felt the peace, the comfort, the rest, the joy of Yahweh becoming my strength. So for hours on end I remained here just silently reading and prayer in a corner of the place and amazingly I am refreshed, strengthened, energized. I'm not even remotely tired but the more I read the Word of Elohim the more awake I became, no fatigue whatsoever. Even while I was reading it became so personal to me because it was as though the Lord Himself was speaking to me directly from His Word. I felt the conviction, the revelation, the power of His Word. I truly am in awe of Him, what an Almighty Elohim I serve and minister to. 

Oddly enough as well when I think of wanting to go eat and drink something immediately the smell of that particular food or drink I'm thinking of hits me. Even as I write this I can still smell the aroma wafting around me, it's even coming from my hands somehow! Even more amazing is that just the smell alone is enough to sate my hunger and thirst so that I remain here in His presence. As I write this the sun's coming up now and I think to myself how awesome and marvellous the Lord Yeshua is, that I can find what I need when I need it all in His presence. I count it a special moment that day and night I can just come into His presence and receive from Him, such is my privilege being His own son. Praise Yahweh, hallelujah.

Psalm 27:4-6

Yahweh has been really conversing with me by His Holy Spirit recently and it's as though He has become a friend closer than a brother. Well, that is Biblical and all but honestly it has been a very exciting that I've been having here at Glory Place. 

The Movement Control Order for our nation has extended yet again to another 2 weeks, that means more time for me to seek Yahweh unhindered. Hallelujah. I really want to praise Elohim because I can be here to worship, minister, and serve freely in this house of His and that everyday I can converse and just intimate myself with Him things not shared with any other. I truly believe that this lockdown is of the Lord Yeshua and that He has given us so much grace period to seek Him like never before, so it of course falls that I should take full advantage of it then. 

The more time I spend in His presence, the faster the time speeds on like nobody's business. The more time I spend intimately with Him the more I hear and can discern the leading and the guidance of His Holy Spirit upon me. Not to say that I've perfect knowledge, but even the times where I mess up all things worked together for my good and for my betterment. So in this time of apt solitude I can just go to the secret place of the Most High and be so one with Him. It's a feeling indescribable. To be able to confer all that I am going through to Him and to be able not just to know He listens but that He answers me speedily and to the fulfillment of His purpose for and in me. So in this time of lockdown I can really tune myself into His presence and just soak in Him and allow Him to work in me both to will and to do for His good pleasure. 

I really cannot begin to describe just how much I cherish this time that I can spend in the house of Yahweh. 

Job 23:12 I have not departed from the commandment of His lips; I have treasured the words of His mouth more than my necessary food.

Truly He is so good to those Who seek Him, such as are in His house for a perpetual season. 

Psalms 84:4 Blessed are those who dwell in Your house; They will still be praising You. Selah

Psalms 65:4 Blessed is the man You choose, And cause to approach You, that he may dwell in Your courts. We shall be satisfied with the goodness of Your house, of Your holy temple

Praise Him forever more...

In Remembrance of Him

There's nothing to really take note of at this current moment in time other than of course the imminent sensation that our Lord Yeshua has not left me but rather it has intensified even more so these past few days. I'm spending more and more time in the sanctuary than I had ever before and I am enjoying it to the fullest ever. I praise Elohim that He has allowed me to stay in Glory Place during the lockdown so with nowhere else to go I go upwards towards the throne of Yeshua in the heavenly places. Such is my right, my privilege, my pleasure. 

As we draw near to the halfway point of the year 2020 I look back and see that it truly has been a very quick paced 4 months already. How fast the time is flying and I believe it will only get faster and faster as the day of His return approaches more and more. I am truly blessed to be able to spend my days in the house of Yahweh serving and worshipping Him. People everywhere are stuck in their homes for the duration of nearly 6 weeks already but I am privileged to use such times to seek Yahweh and to soak in His presence more and more. 

I believe as well that the days are coming when we can no longer enjoy such times like this but that doesn't matter. What matters is what we do with the time in our hands now at this present moment. Because the days will most certainly come that we will desire the Word of Yahweh but will not find it, His presence but He will be in the secret place. Now is the time to get connected to Him and to be of one spirit together with Him so when troubling times arrive we will not be shaken neither perturbed. With that said, I am so glad I'm here in this place able to seek Yahweh indefinitely. Such liberty has been gifted to me so it is right I use it to the fullest measure possible. Hallelujah, onwards!

Imminent Arrival

Well, it has most certainly been quite an eventful few days for me. Firstly of course would have been the crushing of my current hand phone. As I exited the van to close the gate to Glory Place when I returned from throwing the rubbish my phone slipped out of my pocket without my noticing. And I rolled over it with the van, hence crushing it. At first I could still see but half of the screen, but as the day drew on the black screen crept onto the rest of my phone. It was a sheer miracle that I was still able to make calls and do some WhatsApp messaging since I could only see but the corner of my phone and that didn't give away much, I had to trust in Yahweh and muscle memory to type and to make calls to the right people. Praise Yahweh that I was able to find another replacement phone at an affordable price, quite practically half of what I had before. 

But that is enough of that, great change is coming and now it is not just the Christians who are sending it. When our Prime Minister announces the extension of our lockdown until the end of April he mentioned that we can never go back to the way we once were ever again despite how much we want to. This virus has changed things and that we can never go back to how we once were. The world has taken notice that now is the time of great change, but the church of Messiah had foreseen this already and had begun to move beforehand. 

Revival is coming, this is but the beginning of the closing of the age and the soon return of our Lord Messiah Yeshua and everyday it becomes even more apparent. I don't know about you dear readers but everyday I am sensing the urgency of the times and that now is the time to lay down our lives for the Kingdom of Yahweh. What we want to do, our desires, dreams, ambitions, and even needs pale in comparison to the imminent coming of our Messiah and King. And everyday I am ever so grateful that I am found in the house of Yahweh serving and worshipping Him day and night. I cannot begin to express just how much now everything is leading up to revival and the soon coming. There is a power outage in Glory Place as I write this, everywhere in Glory Place has gone dark save the sanctuary where miraculously the lights and power are still running. Note that it is not that it is connected to a different generator, it is joined with multiple rooms and the White House adjacent to it and if the White House has no power then neither should the sanctuary at all. And yet, the White House has gone dark but the sanctuary remains shining brightly amidst the darkness. So what are we doing? Almost everyone has gone up to sleep and rest in the sanctuary, myself included and let me tell you that it was such a wonderful and refreshing sleep these past few days. 

Back to the point at hand, Pastor and as I believe many of us share in the sense that something great and marvellous is coming direct from heaven to earth but only those who are watching and waiting will be able to receive it and see it firsthand. I don't know what this is, but it is something unlike anything we have seen before. All these events are really causing me to examine myself. Am I perfect? Hardly. Have I reached far? Far from it. But by the grace of the Lord Yeshua I am who I am today because He made me so and I can only believe in Him that He will me through to the very end. Of this hope I cleave unto like an anchor for my very soul, that He Who had begun the good work in me shall perfect and complete it unto the coming of our Lord Yeshua Messiah. 

Honestly, we are near the end of all things. It's at the doors now and we must be all the more connected to Elohim in these times more than anything else. May Yahweh be with us all.
