Morning Lord,
Proverbs 30:
7 "Two things I ask of you, O LORD;
do not refuse me before I die:
8 Keep falsehood and lies far from me;
give me neither poverty nor riches,
but give me only my daily bread.
9 Otherwise, I may have too much and disown you
and say, 'Who is the LORD ?'
Or I may become poor and steal,
and so dishonor the name of my God.

Father, I hold fast to my prayers Lord,
1) Thank you for your Grace and Mercy in my Life.
2) Let me enjoy all the Days of my life, anyway according to your plan.
3)Keep me from evil and extend my boundaries.
4) Keep me wise.

Thank you, Lord.

Dear Lord,
I love you. Please help me meditate on your word as much as possible. My mind idle is not only like an empty pot but like a weak fotress, losing to the enemy. Your word is like a roof over my home, the walls around my home, and its my sword.

Lord, help me repent(change) and be a fotress that glorifys you. Anyhow, someway, just make it your way. Let my Church be a light to its people group. Thank you Lord that its by your grace that I am alive and can interced and worship you. I love you, Lord. Lord shake this country, thank you for the revival. Thank you for the grace you have showed Singapore. Thank you for healing Singapore. Praise you Lord!

2 Corinthians 10:4-6 (NIV)
4The weapons we fight with are not the weapons of the world. On the contrary, they have divine power to demolish strongholds. 5We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ. 6And we will be ready to punish every act of disobedience, once your obedience is complete.
(AMplified)
4For the weapons of our warfare are not physical [weapons of flesh and blood], but they are mighty before God for the overthrow and destruction of strongholds,
5[Inasmuch as we] refute arguments and theories and reasonings and every proud and lofty thing that sets itself up against the [true] knowledge of God; and we lead every thought and purpose away captive into the obedience of Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One),
6Being in readiness to punish every [insubordinate for his] disobedience, when your own submission and obedience [as a church] are fully secured and complete.

Hallelujah

"Yield to the Word of God and yield blessings", yes Lord, as your word commands
Praise God.

Morning Lord,
I am feeling fresh and alert, I read your word, ate breakfast with my Dad, and I feel good, Lord. I was pondering during breakfast, Was Jesus apolitical, detatched from the political arena and how should we emulate that.

Other things that I have been pondering about is covenant we have with Jesus paralleled with the Marital act. Because if it is, than "self-gratification" and artificial contraception or any othe perversions of the act would be profane. However Lord, such a view is congruent with the Catholic view. I know I was a heretic in GP class back in college but Lord not in the church I love. The marital act is sacred and it is paralled to communion. No that I am legalistic but any comprimise of this act would lead to a multitude of grey areas. Luther and Calvin held the view of the sacredness of the marital act.

Lord, I regard the marital act as sacred. If it is viewed in any other way but sacred, provision for perversion will seep in. These conviction are for me to live my life, a life that is prudent, wise, prosperous. It is scriptorial, not from any other authority. It is not my way, but yours. I have set my mind on things that are of above where Christ is seated at the right hand of God. Not by my strength but by prayerful abstinence and pre-marital celibacy.
Lord, let thy will be done in my life as it is in heaven.

Even more importantly Lord, keep me from evil and extend my boundaries. take not thy Holy Spirit from me. Praise you Lord.

And Father, I believe Lord that Evangelical Newly Reformed, Five Fold Ministry Orientated Christianity is Biblical Christianity at its most potent. Not because I sort of grew up in such environment but Lord because, in my opinion, it is at the cutting edge.

When practiced, there is equal emphasis in the Word, Spirit. For from your word you are magnified, and from your word that resides in our minds your Holy Spirit convicts, counsels, encourages us.

I got to get ready to go to church Lord, I ponder when I write again.
Some key points in case i forget: autonomy, harmony, ...

I had a wonderfultime in church, one thing importnt I learn today is that we come to church to give to you, and worship you not to get anything.

Moving on Lord, yes, there is more autonomy between the self and the church, thus there is more opportunity for spiritual growth.

Maybe Lord, I should dwell upon this somewhere else not in this letter. Its just that I feel this is the foundation of my ministry for you. Dear Lord, I want to serve you. Thankl you for your wisdom. I love you Lord.

Wah! Lord,
Now I know what you mean, when you said you dislike lukewarmness. Let me be infinity degress hot. I have a feeling Lord that the world finds me weird because I follow you.
My mind to your Word;
My will to the will of Christ;
My emotions that of your Holy Spirit.

What Pastor Pritam told me is true, I cannot focus too much on your word and neglect the will/duty of Christ and conviction of the Holy Spirit. I'd have lose my Wisdom because of my foolishness.

The world sees meekness as a weakness not as characteristic treasured by you. I can not find that many people who are honest teamplayers. Everyone seems to be focused on their Self - ambitions. Lord, the wisdom of this world is different to yours.

Lord, I am not bold enough, I keep myself back confusing myself that I have to be meek in wisdom. You have given me a spirit of boldness Lord, so give me wisdom to gain it.
I use to be so bold but now most of the time I am struggling to be politically correct. It is not for my mind to know if I am double minded but maybe I am, but I am making every effort to be complete for you. So that I can do work you have called me for well.

I love you Lord, you know I do. Keep me from evil. Extend my boundaries. let my actions and speech glorify you.

You are Holy Lord

Dear Lord,
Thanks for the hunger, that you have given me for your word. Dear Lord, I love you. I enjoy my preoccupied busy life, because I know an empty mind is the devils workshop but Lord I really need to organise more. Please give me the wisdom to organise myself.
Cause I know Lord when i organise I maximise.

Dear Lord,
Its been a good day. I should have read your word while comming back home rather than listen to that music, I would have felt better now. The music was temporary. Your word last for a long time. Especially when I read it in that 'lectio divina' way.

Lord, my mind always gets mess up in thoelogical philosophy and struggles and in the searching and reflecting, and along with praying, worship and intercessing my mind gets transformed. Its that called spritually growing or will I one day be complete and emulated to you Lord. I want to be like you. I feel like I have completely overcome some of my struggles. I shared with my close friend that my eyes no longer covet. Well, he said it was only natural and instinctive, but thank you Lord that you allow us qualities of divinity through your Son Jesus. God your amazing. I seriously am amazed, never thought i could ever get over it. And you know what Lord now I truly see why we are made in your image cause we can get over our struggles and be Holy because You are a Holy God. and I love you.

My days of being like an 'animal eyeing any mate' is over. And praise you God. Haleluyah! I feel so free. But God, I know the battle issint over, for I know when the devil will tempt. I'll be prepared.
1st defense: Break into silent prayer, close my eyes, sing worship songs.
2nd defense: Evacuate.
Set.

You know what Lord, when i was entering the lift, a sudden craving for cold beer suddenly arouse. I was quite appalled because just when I thought I had gotten over something, now I have this demon in my closet. Thankfully it was juat a moment. But why Lord? when I entered the lift? Was an alchoholic there before me? Whatever it is Lord, I am not going to focus on it because only you are worth my focus, not battling the Devil. I do the praising, you do the fighting. Prasie God.

I love you Lord

Dear Lord,
I worship you with all my strength and resources and I am enjoying it. Again I pray that in your grace Lord that you extend my boundaries and keep me from evil. Take not your Holy Spirit from me. I thank you for healing and the wonderful work you have for this small but great nation for Singapore.
Lord heal the vice that is like a gangrene and the cancer of self- ambition and bitter envy. Lord I thank you for civil society in accordance to your word, that all the Uncles and Aunties and fellow Brothers and Sisters may live in fraternity in Christ Jesus.
Lord thank you.
Thank you for the national healing rally.
And God, lead me to the apt passages in the Bible everyday.
Praise you Jesus.

Dear Lord,
It has been a calm week. I enjoyed the strom. Thank you so much for being kind to me. Been thinking alot of the future, What an I going to study? and everything. I love you Lord. I know you have a plan for me.

It is important that I always remember that "knowledge without zeal is useless". So Lord, I shall seek it as much as I can to make an impact for you. And Lord, keep me from evil because I struggle eveyday. It is out of my ability to be holy for you. I really have to depend 200% on your Holy spirit. Dear Lord, have mercy on Ted Haagard. Everything that comes to light will be made Holy, so Lord, I know he has been healed of his afliction.
Lord of Holiness
Lord of Justice
Lord of Grace
Lord of Mercy
Lord, let your light shine in your church, in this age of societal enthropy. Dear father, though I am meek Lord keep my chin up, chest out, back straight to be assertive of you.

Lord, you know how some people think it skeptical that I can change and be born again into your light, wel Lord, I dont care what they think. I just care about what you think. Lord, I cry out to you. let your way be done in my life.

Lord, let me not be lead into the Babylonian system but let me be of you.

Jesus I love you, i cant stand struggling anymore. I havent even started my ministry and I am suffering. I have patterns of victory and freedom and periods in the doldrums like Ted Haggard did. Lord, I am not a hypocrite, I love you with all my mind, soul, but my body Lord though I try to emulate you Lord, is my weakest link. Dear Lord save me. I dont ever want to fall.

Lord, bless me as i sleep, I wana breath for you.
