A Testimony!

Hi all, its been so long...ong that I last posted something on our cell group blog. Just wanted to share a testimony that I hadn't got a chance to share during cell group meeting.

This weekend is Mother's Day! And about 2 weeks ago, we were all given invitation cards to invite our mothers and friends who are mothers for this event. Well, in the last service, Pst Tan spoke about being spiritual adoption, that is being pregnant with a vision for our loved ones, friends and collegues to be saved. He shared about how we should start conceiving the salvation of our loved ones in our spirit by committing to pray for them everyday until their salvation becomes a reality.

Well I decided to start conceiving and imagining my mum, my younger sis, my parents-in-law and my 2 brothers-in-law coming to Christ, praying for them everyday since then. Last Sun morning, I felt led to write some heartfelt words on the Mother's Day invitation card, one for my mum, and another for my sis. I then took the courage to give them the invitation cards the next day at my mum's place before I left. And when I returned on Thurs night, I felt something broke in the atmosphere and it was unlike the usual routine dinner gathering. There was an air of liberty and joy throughout the entire fellowship! Although they are not coming for the service yet, I felt that I have entered into a greater intimacy and connection with them, and their hearts were more open than before.

It's the power of prayer, as Dr Kim says, Holy Spirit can give us the power to build relationships - even with our family members whom we are so familiar with. Holy Spirit can anoint us to be sensitive, wise and a fun person to hang around with! At the same time, He can soften the hearts of our loved ones such that they can receive and feel the love of God that is in our hearts.

It's also the power of obedience to the leading of the Holy Spirit! He gives us strategies and ideas to open up hearts and as long as we hear and obey, it will bring us a step closer to the breakthrough we desire in our hearts. The Holy Spirit knows the exact doorway to the hearts of our loved ones.

I have witnessed the power of prayer in just days of praying for my family, and until they are all physically birthed into the kingdom of God, I am committed to impregnate them in my spirit through prayer!

May all our loved ones experience a walk with our Lord Jesus Christ in this lifetime, while they are yet healthy and strong!

Hallelujah!
