Gifts of Holy Spirit

This week we were taught on the Gifts of the Holy Spirit bible study.

The lessons were great and Pastor Ming really imparted a lot of knowledge to us.

There are 9 gifts of the Holy Spirit and they were classifed under three categories: Vocal, Power and Revelational gifts.

Vocal gifts
- Interpretation of Tongues
- Different kinds of Tongues
- Prophecy

Power gifts
- Faith
- Gifts of Healing
- Workings of Miracles

Revelation gifts
- Words of Wisdom
- Words of Knowledge
- Discerning of Spirits

A normal christian living should be moving in the supernatural

The doorway to the gifts of the spirit is through the Holy Spirit =)

Yesterday we had a short practical session on intepretation of tongues.
During the last 45 mins before lesson ends, we were told to form into groups of 7. From each group, there will be 1 person who will speak in tongues and another person will interpret that person's tongue. My group consists of mainly the brothers from team 4 (Jason, wenfu, teng hong, enoch, myself). Robbie and Johnny who were from other group joined us in this practical session.

It was really awesome and amazed to experience the moving of the Holy Spirit.

After the first pair who had done the practical, my friend (wenfu) and I volunteered to be the next pair. Haha in the end, Pastor Ming said that the next pair will depart and join other group. So wenfu and myself joined a new group that we do not know each other. This is the first time I move in the power of the Holy Spirit to interpret tongues.

God is good and His presence was tangible. Through the Holy Spirit, I interpreted and managed to speak a word of comfort and encouragement to a sister in her late 40. She was touched and broke down in tears. Indeed our God is alive. He loves us and knows what's going on in our life. He is always faithful even when we are faithless.

More to come....stay tune!

Exams over!!

woohoo...exams had finally ended yesterday! It has been an enduring 3 weeks of revision and preparation. =) I'm praying for good results for all my 5 exam modules.

Went out with my uni friends (mel, ryan, terence, stevie qiaowen, angie, lynn, evelyn and peiyan) to relax after the last paper. We had japanese sushi at Cathay, arcade gaming at PS, watched "What happened in Vegas" at PS, and finally supper at bugis. We had fun and went home about 1 plus in the mornin!

Attended SOT this morning! Santhi woke up early, bought breakfast (nasi lemak) and waited for me at cafe. It was a pleasant surprise and realli realli thank her for the effort and time spent =) She's not only a good leader but also a good friend to me.

Pastor Ming taught in SOT today. He brought us into a time of prayer and worship before starting the lesson proper. All of us were so touched by God's love towards us and what He had done in our life. The presence of God was so strong this morning. During the lecture, Pastor Ming stressed the importance of puntuality to us. According to the late Ed Cole, he mentioned that if you reached an appointment on the dote, you are already considered late. However, if you reach 15 mins earlier, it is then considered as early.

I take punctuality very seriously. It has slowly integrate and become one of the virtue of my life. I want to respect people's time and hope that people would also respect mine =) It's important to keep your word as well as your time.

Last but not least, Today is my BIRTHDAY!! I am 2_ years old. Hahaha for me to know..for you to find out.
Wanna thank God for putting friends in my life. Although there are good times and bad times, I believe that it's part of life experience and have faith that God will continue to put loyal and faithful people into my life!

Great weeks ahead!!
