Joshua: Blessings

Matthew 6:33

But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.

When I thought of this verse, a revelation came into my mind. This verse reminded me that if you want to receive God's blessings upon your finances, family, health, ministry and all the other needs or wants you hoped for, you must first seek the kingdom of God and His righteousness. After you've done that, God promises you in this verse that all these things shall be added to you!

Right now, it's our church arise and build period where many sacrifices will be made to fulfil their pledges, therefore, always keep this verse in mind, Matthew 6:33, because God promised if we seek him first, we will receive his blessings. During this arise and build period, there will be trials and tribulations, you might not be able to give the same amount as others but unequal amount equal sacrifice and God will always look out for us be it in our finances or studies, so W320-ians, lets ARISE AND BUILD GOD A HOUSE!

Elvis: Serving Wholeheartedly

Serve wholeheartedly as if you were serving the Lord, not men, because you know that the Lord will reward everyone for whatever good he does, whether he is slave or free.
Ephesians 6:7-8(NIV)

In our lives, we are expected to serve but not to be served. Jesus the Son of God came to serve but not to be served by the multitudes. So, we should be more like Jesus!

Serving comes in many ways. By doing the chores your family ask you to help with, you are already serving your family! But as you do the chores, you should do it as if you are serving God! Do it with all your hearts but no with a sulky face. It also applies in your cell group. Whenever you are given a task to do, don't sulk and complain while doing it. Instead do it with a cheerful and willingness to serve attitude because God will reward you accordingly based on how you do the task. Given the right opportunity and the right time, God will rise you up as you serve faithfully and humbly! So, you should start to serve wholeheartedly as if you are serving the Lord, not men!

God will see your effort and He will reward you accordingly, whether you are serving your families, your cell groups or even in your workplace! AMEN!

Jin Seng: Trust towards God

A lot of Christians do not trust God because they do not have faith in God.
For example, building fund.
Most of us give all our best to God,
but some Christians feel that
if they give their money to God,
will God really bless them back?
The answer is YES!
However, some still don't trust God.
God always use His staff to lead us the way
but the point is,
do you want to follow God?
The bible says that "with God all things are possible."
From now, I encourage all of you to trust in God more. =)

Seow Ting: Loving People

John 3:16

" For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. "

God do not only love people who believed in Him, but God too loved the world. He loves everyone the same, and this is why He gave His only begotten son for the world, and not only for believers.

Matthew 22:39

" And the second is like it: ' You shall love your neighbour as yourself. ' "

The first commandment is to love God wholeheartedly, and the second is to love people around you the same as you love yourself.

As a christian, why is it so important to love people?

1) Because it is the character of Jesus. (We represent God)

At the start when we accept Christ, when we receive the Holy Spirit, Jesus lives in us.

And the lost in the world, they build their impressions of Jesus by looking at christians around them, and this is why it is important to love people, because we represent Jesus, and Jesus loves them.

2) Because the lost needs Jesus.

1 corinthians 13:13

" And now abide faith, hope, love, these three ; but the greatest if these is love."

Everyone needs love, no one will reject love. And the world needs God's love, because the love of God is neither an embracing love, nor a pampering love, never a biased love, but God's love is an unconditional perfect love.

3) Because we are to be a blessing to the world.

When we love people, when we accept them, we are spreading God's love into their heart. Who will don't want someone to love them truly?

Many people love because they themselves can gain benefits. And this is not true love. When we truly love someone, we love him/her without expecting he/she to love us back. We bless the people around us by loving them, by cherishing them, by letting them know that they are worthy, that Jesus loves them with an unconditional love.

When we love people, we should never do selective loving. We should love everyone the same, because God loves everyone the same, and everyone deserves the same amount of love.

SO, LETS LOVE PEOPLE MORE!

Terecia: Bringing people to Christ

Why is it so important to bring unbelievers/our school classmates to Christ?

God created us in His own image and He loves everyone.
Whether you are a believer or not,
He say that when one is saved into the kingdom of God, angels over heaven rejoices and celebrates,
and when one sheep is lost, God will look for it no matter what.
Here is a story of the lost sheep :

Luke 15: 4-7
What man of you, having a hundred sheep, if he loses one of them, does not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go after the one which is lost until he finds it?
And when he has found it, he lays it on his shoulders, rejoicing.
And when he comes home, he calls together his friends and neighbors, saying to them, 'Rejoice with me, for I have found my sheep which was lost!'
I say to you that likewise there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine just persons who needs no repentance.

Let's all do our best to reach out to all our friends that have not heard the gospel out there! :)

Joshua: 'Have FAITH in God!'

What is Faith?
Hebrews 11: 1 (NKJV) - Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

Why do we need Faith?
Hebrews 11: 6 (NKJV) - But without faith it is impossible to please Him, for he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.

Here are the 4 points of Faith
1. Faith is our connection with God
2. Faith changes the negatives in our life
3. Faith will frame your future
4. Faith is an action

There are a few ways that we are able to grow our Faith in God
1. Must have 100% trust in God which means 0% doubt
2. Read the word of God daily (Bible)
3. Speak in tongues more
4. Do your quiet time daily
5. Believe all things are possible

I believe that as a new generation, we must have complete Faith in God in order to do greater works in the Kingdom of God and we must be bold to step out of our comfort zone.

Seow Ting: 'We need to be a leader as a new generation'.

We've got to be the influential in the marketplace. It is only when we are influential, then people will follow us, and then we can have a better chance in spreading the gospel to them.

Being a new generation, we should learn how to be a leader, so that in future we are able to make disciples. Jesus said that all of us will go out there to the world and make disciples. If we are not leaders, and we do not know how to lead people, then how are we going to make disciples?

In each of our world, whether is it in school or at work, we should all be the one that people will ask opinions from, that people will look for, that our presence is something that matters. We should not be the one that is following others, doing what other people do, but we should always be the one that is leading, doing the right thing despite others doing the wrong thing. We need to be the head and not the tail, above and not beneath. Not only in our studies or our work achievements, but in every area of our life, in our character, our attitude, our love and concern towards others, our selflessness, we need to be someone that resembles Jesus.
