the break thru

After days of fasting, i think i had finally found my primary (stage 1) breathru. Last night i attended 'Walking In The Word'. I had attended YAS before but honestly i felt the teaching to be to 'easy'. It is directed at the Young Adults that was either studying or had worked for a couple of years sort. The way the service is conducted is very suitable and easy to follow for the age group. The worship is very 'hip' and energised, the sermon is done in a very light-hearted manner, even the people on stage don't wear ties!

But i guess i am still the semi-old fashion. I still prefer my adult service where the worship is 'hip' but not so hyper-engerised and the sermon done in a little more serious note. (of cuz not the hyper serious ones lar.) My hubby on the other hand loves YAS, cuz the worship engages him and he felt that he could related to the sermons. So last night, i decided since i can choose between YAS and Walking In The Word, why don't i go down to chapel rather than grumble about YAS again after service. It was a wise choice. haha... I felt very ease in Walking In The Word. God spoke to me and i finally gain the insight that was very much needed to help me proceed to next level of my personal growth. It took me at least 2 years to finally see the root of the problem!

I can sit and grumble why didn't God reveal it to me earlier or i can rejoice at the great mercy and timing of God. I am choosing the later. I am rejoicing and holding God's hand into the next level.

What is the great revelation that i recieved leh? Oh... it is something that i loathe so much... 'knowledge puff up and love builds up'. I always dislike people who have great knowledge of the Bible and can qoute verses without having to check the Bible. I think they are big stuck-ups, empty vessals without the spirit of God. I always pride myself as a Spirit-filled believer. But last night i realised that being Spirit-filled is not just seeing vision and having dreams! It is always about applying all that i have learnt about God into practise into my own life. Anchoring myself to Him not to the gifts that He had graced me with. For a moment i saw myself as that empty vessal and i repented. I believe this will be a great step of faith in my journey with Him and towards the finishing line. There is so much more to learning and i thank Him for keeping my life smooth-sailing thus far. He is my JEHOVAH-JIREH, my JEHOVAH-NISSI, my all in all...my Lord. =)
