Two weeks ago, the Church embarked once again on 7 days of 1hr prayer. This time round, we could choose between the morning or evening sessions, held at several locations: our Jurong West building, Heart of God Church & Church of Singapore (Harvest) for the mornings (0630 - 0730hrs), and Jurong West & Riverwalk for the evenings (1800 - 1900hrs).
During one of the morning sessions at HOG, Pastor Tan led us to pray for our cell groups - for growth and revival. We could really feel that something was happening in the spirit realm.
After that meeting, as I was walking into the MRT, I grabbed a copy of the day's TODAY paper. What I saw on the front page really stopped me in my tracks! No, it wasn't news on a major crime or accident, but it was these words in bold:
How does growth and revival start in N415???
"It Starts In Me"!
Although this tag line is from an advertisement for Dutch Lady's new Shine yoghurt drink, it appeared as a revelation to me!
We can only experience growth and revival in our cell group if we first experience revival in our own spiritual lives! So let's not be satisfied with where we are at. If we're stagnant, we're not moving forward...
God can speak to us through an audible voice, through an impression in our heart, through another person, through the Word and even through a newspaper advertisement!
Let's all hunger and thirst for God to speak deeper revelations to us each and every day of 2009!!
sincerely Yours,
