4th March 2006- A Remarkable Day
Ever wonder how God's works in one's life? Through the ministries or through people that care for you so much?
I've never fail to go for Wednesday night prayer meetings and Saturday for Intercession, H & D, Evening Worship Service and TSF since the day I joined FGA! It is just a month back or so I've been there. Well, my Saturday has been filled with church programs and I want to confess that there are times when I feel so reluctant to go for those services as my exams were just around the corner. It's just a temptation to stay back home and study but God just want me to be in church, so I went!
4th of March 2006 was a Saturday and I was in church from 1.30 p.m. - 9.30 p.m. and you guys know what? Monday was my Methods in Human Services exam and I haven't finish studying as there's so much to study for! Lecture notes, textbook (which is so wordy) and the case studies & I've got an exam on Tuesday (which is today)- Intro to Research Methods!
Putting all of these aside, I wanna share my sweet and lovely encounter during the H & D service. I was there for the 3rd time and I gotten the breakthroughs that I've always wanted! It's my victory in Christ! Tears overwhelmed during the praise & worship and during the alter call, I went out for prayers. The H & D team, a few of them came over and prayed for me. Well, I felt so light and relieved after that and when one of them said, "Lord, feel her with joy"... and guess what? I was laughing non-stop and I was slained thereafter. God knows my desires of my heart so much until He comes to rescue me from the power of darkness! In fact, God gave me the gift of speaking in tongues. Seriously, it was a great Saturday that I wouldn't forget. Instead, I just want to keep it close to my memories and heart forever and knowing God is a God of Strength, Shield and Refuge! He is my ultimate Deliverer and Comforter that I will not find anywhere! He is the One and the Only One that I will put my whole heart to trust Him more and more each day!
Despite my long hours I spent in church, it's really worth of my time and energy. Though I'm so tired and restless after coming back from church, I can still give thanks for what the Lord has done in my life. Speaking of which, I have to admit that I hardly focus on what I'm reading and I spent most of my time at home sleeping. My mind is exhausted and so is my body. I just keep reading the Word of God instead of reading my books. However, God is so GREAT! The exams aren't that horrible afterall. It's just the 'young faith' that I have in the Lord that He will perform miracles and will pour more blessings upon my life. Well, don't get me wrong that without studying, God can perform miracles! I did study, just that I didn't have much time to cover every single chapters in the textbook and reading every single words in the text. I just run through everything and just do my best and leave the rest to God!
I'm just waiting for the day my exams are all over and I wanna spend more time seeking the Lord and today is the day that I'm waiting for! I'm just rejoicing after having to go through so much obstacles and challenges! It's by God's grace and mercy that I've managed to strive and thrive in the face of adversity for His Grace is sufficient for me!
Proclaiming God's word in Psalm 91 & 139 over and over again is definitely a MUST! God is just so GREAT! Joshua 1:8,9-- Fear not! Be strong and Courageous!
Wonderful Jesus. . . . ! ! ! ("._.")
