What the Anointing Oil is & Prayer for the Anointing Oil
By

Pastor Prince from New Creation Church has recently called upon the church members to use the Anointing Oil to bless every area of our lives. He had gone to Tiberius Church in Indonesia and seen how the anointing oil has made a difference to the Christians there. The senior pastor of Tiberius Church, Pastor Yesaya Pariadji, had been led by the Father to get his church to use the anointing oil radically. He had a vision of a biblical quotation when he was still not yet a Christian - he had no idea what it was. When he became a pastor, he finally understood what it meant. He felt very led to get his church to use anointing oil so they went ahead and used it; their testimonials are plentiful and amazing. Pastor Prince being a huge believer in Sola Scriptura, decided to discern further, pray about this and read up on the scriptural references on Anointing Oil before telling us to use it. He believes in doing things biblically - meaning we can be radical in our faith (for example our churc...
The Babel Connection

The earliest Chinese Writing dated back to 2700 BC . It is estimated that the Tower of Babel incident took place around 2700 BC . A coincidence??? Definitely not!!! In fact, waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay before there was Taoism or Confucianism in China, the Chinese worshipped the one true God - 上帝 (Shang Di) or LORD on High, the Supreme God. The similarities between Shang Di of the Chinese and Yahweh of the Jews is astounding. They are definitely the one, same God. Let's find out more about who Shang Di of the Chinese people is - According to Wikipedia - Shangdi is first mentioned in Chinese Literature in the Five Classics, (五經, pinyin: Wujing) allegedly compiled by Confucius in the 6th century BC. The Wujing was a collection of five books that represented the pinnacle of Chinese culture at that time. The oldest parts of the Wujing were first written around 1000 BC, apparently relying on older texts. All of the five classics include references to Shangdi. Taoism, probably the most embraced...
Hi Geri,
ReplyDeleteJust a few days ago, a regular customer (who is a Christian from another church) greeted me at my stall with this weird greeting:"Is God good?"
It sounded almost like a challenge rather than a greeting ;-) I actually hesitated for a split second before the reply came to me: "All the time!" I answered :-)
Hi Geri,
ReplyDeleteYou are truly a daughter of Zion!
The comics brightens my night! It is midnight now!! The start of a new day and surely I am going to rejoice in it.
We can choose to rejoice whatever comes our way. While Paul was in prison, he wrote this verse:
Rejoice in the Lord always and I will say it again: rejoice!
The prophet Habakkuk wrote this:
Though the fig tree may not blossom,
Nor fruit be on the vines;
Though the labor of the olive may fail,
And the fields yield no food;
Though the flock may be cut off from the fold,
And there be no herd in the stalls—
Yet I will rejoice in the LORD,
I will joy in the God of my salvation.
The LORD God is my strength;
He will make my feet like deer’s feet,
And He will make me walk on my high hills.
(Habakkuk 3:17-19)
Cheers,
Joo
Amen! God is good all the time indeed!
ReplyDeleteI praise Jesus that the comics brightened your day =)
AND AMEN! We can always rejoice in the LORD for even though we have trials to go through, the LORD always redeems us from them because of His love, tender mercies and grace. Hallelujah!
Hi Geri,
ReplyDeleteOur Daddy God really has a sense of humour :-)
After I read this comic on Monday and posted a comment (18/8), yesterday (i.e. 19/8) I had the worst day of biz for months. Then I hear this inside my heart:"Am I still good?"
"YES! Daddy God." I know You are good because of Christ, not because of my circumstances.
