My God can do all things

The lives we lead is a reflection of our spiritual journey in Christ.
Our lives, especially our private lives, has to be well led.
God uses those who faces up to painful failures in their personal lives, who confront it and become conquerors. Think Jacob, Moses...
This is especially important to those seeking to enter public ministry, esp those who labour in the Word and prayer, of which the latter should precede.

Compare Pst Kong's words and his life.
His life has great progress, he has so much to share with the congregation.
His sermons has great power.

Lets bring it down to a lower level.
To those who desire to be Shepherds, Teachers of the Word or the current In-Thing which is marketplace ministry, character and its integrity has to be number 1 priority. To last through all adversity and stay true to Jesus.

Because as a person progresses in life, personal weaknesses and inadequacies become painfully obvious, even small ones.. You got to suck in all your pride and deal with the issues in life and confront it, no matter what smart noble excuses you gave yourself in the past. Dun siam, no matter what that is. U may think siam better, dun embarrass ourselves.. but think.. better now than later.. when u wanna confront it? when u r already a senior in school? a father? stepped into a workplace? or even worse, in public ministry? (Well, i do really wanna siam contact lenses, but that is another story)

The true question is whether you want to be a powerful Christian or not.
For true power to flow through you by the Spirit and birth forth true fruits, you gotta be more than jus surviving. Conception. Pregnancy, Birth... Only a healthy and attractive woman give birth to healthy strong babies. When you are attractive to the Holy Spirit, He will become intimate with you. Conception. Without this start, nothing is really very fantastic.. How many of us know tt a lady gotta prep herself real well to attract a very good husband?

More so when u are trying to draw near to God..
If not He will love u from a distance, fine.. things will work out jus fine.
But is that all u want?
Or do u want to hold Him tight and get real close? Know Him and know the people He loves to draw near to.

The strength of our personal lives is directly related to our level of anointing. The sensitivity we have to the Voice of the Spirit, our fruitfulness. Our ability to draw near to a place of intimacy with God. Treasure every time you go to service, CG, prayer meetings... and for that matter, go to school, go work, go meet friends, go play, go fellowship, go courses... I admit I often forget to treasure them... esp the "secular ones"..

God, You can do all things...
My flesh and my heart and my plans they fail...
but You are the strength of my heart and my portion forever.
