Kau membayar dosaku You paid for my sins Dengan darah yang mahal But with the priceless blood
Tiada noda dan cela which is pure & holy
Bukan dengan emas perak Neither with gold nor silver
Kau menebus diriku You have redeemed me
Oleh segenap kasih With all the love
Dan pengorbananMu and Your sacrifice
Kutelah mati dan tinggalkan I have died and left
Cara hidupku yang lama the old way of living my life
Semuanya sia-sia dan tak berarti lagi Everything was useless and meaningless
Hidup ini kuletakkan I put this life
Pada mezbahMu ya Tuhan On Your Altar Oh Lord
Jadilah padaku seperti yang Kau ingini be it unto me according to your will
-Ivan ^^ God bless you! Lyrics for "seperti yang kau ingini" which means "According to God's Will"

Ooh, I like the skin of our blog. Jesus is all bout love. (:
I thank God for everything in my life. Especially Dorcas. She's so cute just like sugar, spice and eveything nice! M blessed with a leader like you. I watched simpsons yesterday and there was this particular line in the movie that says, "a leader is born to lead not to read" Muahahahahaha! And this has nothing to do with anything I just feel so random. Oh wells, randomosity. The main thing is, I LIKE DORCAS. Cause she's wise and she shows me the image of God. HEHEHE I WANT TO BE GOD TOO (:
My holidays are boring. The days walk extra slowly but wooops, it gives me more time at home alone with God now that my maid is gone. She stole our money, grr! Muahaha, I love I love the quiet times with my LORD.
Yayness to one more thing. I call it the SEOW WEI'S ACHIEVEMENT! Muahaha! There was one day I had private time with the Lord. And yes no one's home. As I prayed, I could feel something hit in my mind. Somehow it gave me the inspiration to sit in front of the piano and start playing the church songs i've been humming to myself lately! And so I did. Whoohoo whoohoo! I coordinated the notes, started singing and playing the piano! Of course I needed the help of some coordination so I searched for guitar4christ. I cant play the guitar but the chords were useful. For hours the presence of God kept flowing.
Best thing in world was IT WAS JUST YOU AND ME LORD. I could express it all just the way I want. (:
Thank you Father for everything in my life presently. Hahaha I can't seem to express how much you did but it's so much. You're the greatest love. Yes yes, yes you are! M so proud of you my Lord, I love you I love you I love you I love you wholeheartedly.
God bless the one posting this for me! xoxo
MY GOD IS GOOD (: Love, seow wei.

today i had my individual presentation for a particular module. before it's my turn, i was really nervous and i hardly practised my speech. so, i was pretty unprepared and i prayed to God that he would bless me with confidence and i would be fluent and clear during my presentation.
even when i was walking up to the front of the class, i was literally shaking a bit.
BUT!! once i started, i did not feel scared anymore. i just went on and on without much mistakes and i could memorise most of the planned speech of mine. furthermore, my friends said that i was quite natural and they enjoyed the topic.
so i thank God for guiding me during the speech and providing me the confidence that i needed most at that point of time.

HEY GUYS! Hope your week has been great so far. I know mine was :) I just want to share a short sweet simple and tasty testimony. As I am going to go back camp tonight, so while I was using the computer I had a sudden thought of hope that my dad would buy back durian tonight. Well oh well, indeed GOD will provide. HE hears the whispers of our heart. PRAISE THE LORD. My dad really brought home durians! I can't contain my joy, its ecstatic! Because I believe in the Bible.
Ephesians 3:20 (New King James Version)"Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us."
Come lets all lift up our Bible and confess! THIS IS MY BIBLE. I AM WHAT IT SAYS I AM. I HAVE WHAT IT SAYS I HAVE. I CAN BE WHAT IT SAYS I CAN BE. THIS IS THE WORD OF GOD, AND IT'S GOING TO CHANGE(and transform) MY LIFE!
Great is our GOD and greatly to be praised. GOD is real today =)

Last Satuday we went for Richard Robert's service. To be honest, i forgot that he's coming that week for healing service until we reached there and saw the bulletin. This healing service is one of the best i can say. That day, Auntie Susan, Annabelle and i were sitting on Delta terrace as Auntie Susan can't sit to near to the stage as she'll feel giddy when the music is too loud. So both of us volunteer to sit beside her. Though we are sitting at the back, the presence of God was so strong!
After the sharing of words by Richard Roberts, we start praying and Richard Roberts start healing people. Even when he's sharing the word of God, people already get healed by him too. I believe those who went for it did visual it yourself. It was so amazing. While we are praying in groups and praying for one another, goosebumps starting acting on my body. i know it very clearly that it is God. My right hand is on Auntie Susan and i can feel that something is producing in my body, which is heat.
At the beginning, the heat is just on my right hand, slowly, it moves toward my right arm and towards my right leg. After awhile, my entire right side seems to be on hot. I know and i know, something is working. so i get closer to Auntie Susan as it seems like my right hand is passing the heat towards her. Never did i experience such things before, that's why i know it very clearly. I know that the heat in my body, the goosebumps i had is warmth and comfortable. I know it's God who is doing something in my body! Praise the Lord!
So after the entire service, Auntie Susan told me that there's a "pop" sound on her right ear just now and her body is feeling better! I got so happy! Not that i'm boasting, but i know that God has use me to heal her somehow. Though it's not totally healed, at least she's feeling better now. I got so amaze that even i myself, is able to heal someone through Christ. I am so happy that God uses someone like me to heal Auntie Susan.
That experience... is really hard to explain. It was so Great, so Amazing, it's like Miracles! It'll be even clearer when you guys experience it. Thank you God for using me. You've allow me to grow stronger in Christ. Continue to pray for Auntie Susan and pray that she'll be alright soon. Amen.

Hey guys after last Monday prayer meeting, I really felt great. However, one thing that I have learnt is that being able to flow is not rushing but flowing in the presence. At times we may think that praying loud and forceful will draw down the presence of God which I think is not totally always the case.
During the time when we broke into 2 groups and pray, at first I was praying quite loud and forceful because I really want to press in and get into the presence. However, I felt rather irritated when I don't feel it. Then God just spoke to me to slow down can calm my spirit. When that happened, God's presence overwhelmed me.
As we are living in a very fast paced society and we tend to rush through the things that we are doing. And we become stressful when things are not done fast enough. It's true that at time we do not have the liberty of time. But I truly think that we should always take time to flow in the presence of God. After all we want to receive from God don't we? Therefore if rushing and couldn't receive/impacted by God don't you think it is a waste of time? Therefore I strongly encourage that we should flow with the Holy Spirit even more; be sensitive to the spirit and we will be able to grow even more.
So God bless you all and have a great week ahead. See ya.
In His greatest LOVE aNNa[b]eLLe <=^a^=>

Dear ALL N161 members,
Since I’m flying off tomorrow, I thought of just dropping you guys a good-bye message. (ps. I’ll be back on sun noon but not sure what time it is)
Before I leave, I would like to say how privilege I am to be able to serve in N161. Please forgive me for the times when I was not sensitive to your feelings. If I had offended anyone in the cell group, please forgive me. Being in N161 has bought me great joy, love and sacrifice at the same time.
As I’m not around this weekend, please continue to give Dorcas all your support! Continue to build up the spiritual and faith atmosphere during cell group meetings! We are one body in Christ through the same Holy Spirit. I would like to challenge all of you to give all your best during praise and worship! Seriously, praise without actions and joy isn’t praise at all! To give praise means to be joyful and to fully express yourselves. Let’s all break the awkwardness as we jump and clap during praise in cell group meetings! Only when we step out of our comfort zones then will we be able to draw down even greater presence and anointing of God!
Also, Dorcas has mentioned that we need to be accountable to our leaders. Accountability to our leaders (Dorcas, in this case) is of importance as our leaders need to know what is going on in our lives and also other member’s lives. Please understand that letting Dorcas know what is happening in other member’s lives is not gossiping. We are simply reporting facts to Dorcas without any personal opinion and judgment of that person. This is highly important because Dorcas is our leader and we have to let her know if any member is going through any rough times so that she can intervene with Godly wisdom. Trust me, anything that you say to Dorcas will be confidential and won’t be passed around unnecessarily. Only when we truly open up our lives to Dorcas then can we be impacted by God through Dorcas!
As we remain accountable to our leaders in everything that we do, we are under our leaders’ spiritual covering. It is something like a spiritual umbrella. As we remain inside the spiritual umbrella, the cold rain from the outside can’t drench us though it might wet us slightly. Similarly, we remain protected when we remain accountable and when satan attacks, we would not fall that easily. I would strongly urge everyone of you to remain accountable to your team leaders and most importantly Dorcas.
I’m really honored to be able to lead the Prayer Meeting at my house just now. I hoped that everyone of you had a great time praying and worshipping out God Almighty. Let everyone of us never give up this good fight of faith! Let’s all run together united as a cell group with the same vision!
Have a great week ahead!
God Bless, Joel

Hey hey guys, got testimony to share! LOL. Something amazing happen to me this week. God really answer my prayer even though it's a last minute one. Everytime, i will be taking bus 969 from Tampines bus interchange to Khatib, then thereby cross over the overhead bridge and change to either but 851, 852 or 853 to school. Unexpectedly, after ending my attachment and heading back to school to do my Final Year Project(FYP), the queue for 969 is so long! Though bus 72 queue as well as the journey is always long, it comes faster an more on time. So i planned to take 72.
The journey from Tampines interchange to my school is long, that's why i must have a seat. First few days i did get seats, but it's not the seats i want as i feel so uneasy when sitting as well. so starting from this week's tues, i prayed to God that i want a seat and specify all the requirements(for double deck:seats on upper deck, on the left side, the inner seat, facing the wrong and not side, and regardless of front middle or back) for the seats i wanted. One of the days i even prayed last minute as the bus is already here. But God always answer my prayer and fulfill them.
Tues,i got the seat at the upper deck, at the last roll, just beside the window. Wed, i got the same seat ast Tues, Thurs, it came a single deck and i prayed last minute for the seat(for single deck:any seats will do), and God gave me one even the bus was pack. Fri, which is today, the bus that came was a double deck bus and i got the same seat as what i have on Tues & Wed, PRAISE THE LORD!
God is really amazing, everytime when i queue for bus 72, it was always so long, but yet, i still get the seats i wanted. As long as you have faith in God and be specific with what you prayed for, definitely God will be there to answer and fulfill your needs. God is a good God and He'll always take care of us no matter what as He is our shepherd and we are His sheep.
I believe this blog will be full with wonderful Testimonies and Revelations as our God will always be there to provide for us and create miracles and wonders that you never think or expect before. God will be doing something great in your lives as well my dear brothers and sisters. Have a great day ahead and God bless all of you...
Thank you my Lord, my Saviour... Giving You all the Praise and all the Glory!
Cheers! ^^ Ivan

Hi guys, This blog is really nice, so lets all fully utilise it with our positive thoughts, dreams, vision and encouragment to one another.
Last service with Dr Peter wagner was awe-inspiring, was truely blessed by his sermons, church in the workplace and the 7-M mandate. He brings the whole cutural mandate we've learnt into a better understanding, a whole new level of understanding how we as christians should shine in our market place.
On sunday service, he mentioned about our GOAL in life is Transformation, both personal and corporate. We must first focus on the kingdom, Matt6:33-seek first the kingdom of God and all desires shall be added upon you. The 7-M(mountain) which is the 7pillars pst kong taught us, we saints should all be at the top of your mountain to influence the people below. Anyways if u wanna get what i mean, grab Dr Peter Wagner's audio cd, haha.
I as a student used to think the marketplace is not so much for the youth, but Dr Peter's message made me think otherwise now, i may be a student now praying to be the head of my campus but i will not stay as a student forever, the marketplace is equally as important for us in a few years down the road. So students let us all not only shine now in just our campus but let us also pray in future when we step out into the workplace we too be the head of which ever mountain we're in, be it media, arts and entertainment, business etc.
We will be at the top being a great influence of the society.We will SHINE ,N161, we'll be of great value in society. =)
