busy week ahead

next week will be a supernatural week
everyday we will be meeting up with brothers and sisters

i am thinking of practicing fast and pray every night

i do not know how committed i would be

but i would like to give it a try

if i want to increase my faith
to believe of the miracles happening during the supernatural sunday
i need to start small

just now at ministry house
i was looking at a devotional material written by Joseph Prince
at first i thought, "another gimmick book."

i looked at the biography
senior pastor of new creations church
with members growing to 150,000
my eyeballs bulge

i read through hoping to catch a glimpse on what
is the mindthology of a leader to grow a church to such a limit

what is the distinction / difference marker between a normal and a mega church

the passages are speaking into my heart

as if God is talking to me

fulfilling my inner needs

answering my doubt

calming my stormy heart

the points that i caught are:

(1) when bible mentions that Jesus dies for us and carry our every trangressions, " surely" is mentioned

(2) God does not keep record of our shortcomings example of David, Samuel (the many biblical giants) but recall their victories in God as is written in Hebrews

(3) Sometimes, we are compulsed to help out someone in our heart, but is it God's will? (Jesus healed some but not all as God has His Purpose of doing in whatever is done)

(4) A woman had a bent back and had to look at the dust on the ground all her life, until one day she saw the feet of Jesus and He healed her. the devil slides on the ground eating dust. Dust signifies sin and evil abiding.

What do they mean to me?

(1) I need to be affirmed that i am not condemned by sin and overwhelming sense of guilt.

(2) Good or bad happenings are in God's hands and God comforts all
