I Am A Rebel For God!

I am on leave today. I was out with three other siblings-in-Christ to Johor Bahru. We did the usual stuff that Singaporeans would do - eating, shopping and then more eating again. Oh yah, we did something else - we went to watch a movie "Iron Man." The price of each ticket was only RM11 (S$4.80). We also found out that on Wednesdays the ticket costs only RM6 (S$2.60). That's it! I am going to boycott all cinemas in Singapore as of now.

I am actually quite tired now from all the walking and eating. When I came back just now, I was all set to wash up. As I was walking to the bathroom, I saw the pile of creased clothes in the hall. I ended up ironing all twenty of them. It felt good though as I have more clothes to wear now.

Anyway, I wanted to blog last night after coming back from the Global Day of Prayer but decided to shelf it till now. I was struggling whether to go or not as I was very sleepy towards the late afternoon when I was in church doing some Missions Ministry stuff. In the end I went and it was a decision I did not regret.

I was simply refreshed from the singing and praying. I went into the Singapore Indoor Stadium lethargic and all but I left the place recharged! Thanks be to God for that! We did nothing but praising God with songs, listening to the Word being preached and interceding for the world and also for Singapore. Throughout I could sense the presence of the Lord in the stadium as there were goose-bumps all over me... seldom do I experience this but yesterday was one of those moments. I asked the rest of the youths who were with me whether they felt the same way and they nodded.

Well, I know God has heard the cried of His people all over the world and there is going to be a wave of blessings poured out upon all nations!

Just before I left the hall, I have decided to continue to be a rebel for God as shared by my Assistant Pastor to the youths when we were in church in the morning. Not those rebellions which make one go against governments, families or people of other religions but to be a rebel against sins, the devil, the spiritual forces, the injustices, prejudices, discriminations, etc. It is time I stand against all these and not be indifferent to them thus causing myself and many others to sink deeper into the pit of death.

It is time to free ourselves from the cluthes of Satan and really live our lives pleasing in the sight of God.

Well, I shall end here for now!

"... if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then will I hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and will heal their land." 2 Chronicles 7:14
