The Meaning Of Wilderness and 40 Days & 40 Nights

Jesus was led by the Spirit up into the wilderness, to be tempted by the Devil. And when He had fasted 40 days and 40 nights, He was afterwards hungry. 

Understand what the Bible means by wilderness and the number 40, and you will have a different point of view on this highly controversial topic in the body of Christ...

Revelation on Fasting in The Light Of New Covenant

It is written, "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.", for the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit. So do not be carried about with different and strange doctrines, for it is good for the heart to be established with grace, not with foods, in which those who have walked in them were not helped.

The revelation on fasting came to me about 3 years ago before we started our first teaching session in Celebration Bible School in Medan, Indonesia. This revelation took the Lord a flick of a second to reveal but it is by no mean conclusive and the revelation on this contractual topic in the body of Christ is still growing.

This is the link to the original post on the topic of FASTING written on 13th February 2009.

Established In Jesus' Righteousness

Christ is the end of the law for righteousness for everyone who believes and the just shall live by faith. It is the glory of God to hide a thing; but the honor of kings is to search out a matter.

Medan 2012 - Good Foods

The Bible says faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the Word of Christ. The more we hear the Word of Christ, the more faith we have. It is because the Word of Christ talks above Jesus' finished work at the cross.

It is the same for our visit to Medan. The more you come to Medan, the more good foods you can find in this city. As far as 'fooding' (Singlish) is concerned, this trip is the most fruitful trip.

Terong Belanda Juice

Medan people are very creative in making fruit juices and they have all kinds of juice. Their creativity go to  an extend that they even mix the juices to create a juice.  Their juices are cheaper than what we can get in  Kuching, but their foods are more expensive. For example, a bowl of noodle would cost IDR28,000.00 which is about RM9.00.  A plate of BBQ Pork with rice is IDR32,000.00 which is equivalent to RM10.50. These are double the price in Kuching.

Medan 2012 - Good Classes

This is the forth time that we are here in Medan to teach in Celebration Bible School. There are an increase of students in the school this year and many are enlightened with the gospel of grace.

This is the forth day of our stay and we find time really flies. I was given a chance to share in four lessons on Jesus' righteousness. I personally find that I am more composed when delivery the messages and is tapping well in the flow of the Spirit.

It is an encouragement to receive feedbacks from the students that they are enjoying the classes and are blessed with new revelations.
