HI National Seminar in Ulaan Baatar, Mongolia

I arrived Ulaan Baatar last night about 2300 hrs, after 10 hrs if flight and transits. Two brothers Bolt and Henti, were at the airport to receive me. What a joy to see them again.
Today I had four sessions of Biblical Mandate with 26 participants. They are en exciting group participants, very engaged.
During the last session,  had to discontinue the class as the spirit of the Lord moved very powerfully. Most everyone in the class were in tears. Some sound sobs were heard as well. I decided to close in prayer and let the Holy Spirit deal with the participants.
This lady of the name of Pugi was my interpreter. She is very fluent in English and she has such a pleasant personality. She was so full of joy that you won't have the slightest clue of her challenges. When I heard her story and what she was going through in life, I was almost at tears. She and her husband were planting a village in a remote village when suddenly the child she was carrying was born premature. To cut a long story short, her four yearly daughter has a nervous disorder and she can only move her eyes and nothing else. She can't talk and needs  constant medical care. With so much of challenges in her life, she showed no sign of any anxiety in her life. She explained how she overcame this extremely difficult pain in her life. Now her faith in the Lord, in spite of the severe challenges is strong. I was encouraged and blessed to know that there are faithful people, still sold out for God, like Job. Praying that God will do a miracle.

"It is finished" - Jesus Christ

Image
John 19:30 - When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost. It's Good Friday again. The world pauses and recollects the events that changed the course of history. For me it was a time to reflect on the finished work of our Lord on the cross. He paid the price for my redemption. But it dawned on me that Jesus, himself, had a task to do while on this earth, He was on a mission. There was a time frame. There was a script to follow. In military terms , there was an objective he had to capture. Anything short would have been a disaster. But towards the end, in spite of the agony at Gethsemane, the unfair trail, humiliating and torturous journey via Dalarosa, Jesus cried, "It is finished". What an achievement. What a fitting eulogy.  Jesus was faithful to His mission - Hebrew 3:2 Jesus was focused on His mission - Luke 9:51 Jesus finished His mission - John 19:30  Judas towards th

What a trip to Nepal

Image
I am sitting at the airport restaurant in Kathmandu, checked in and waiting for my departure to New Delhi and from there, onward to Singapore.  Just sipping and enjoying the Americano coffee and a slice of cheese cake as I reminiscent my last nine days in Nepal. It has been a incredibly tough trip but one filled with joy, great satisfaction and challenges. Tough because of the bad roads, tracks and mountain trekking that really tested my endurance and my back was sore.  Couple of knocks on the head as the vehicle danced to the tune of the undulating terrain. Days when I had terrible diarrhoea, running from one mountain toilet to another. Thank God I had Dr Mike Ong on this trip who is a medical doctor from Singapore, who attended to my condition. Times when we had to sleep on the cold floor with thin sheets of cloth, with rodents in the vicinity. Temperatures dropped to a low of 10-12 degrees centigrde in the nights. Eating the food offered by the villagers as we were up in the mounta

Devotion - Psalms 44: 6-7 - Its God who gives the victory

Image
Psalms 44:6-7 - I put no trust in my bow, my sword does not bring me victory; but you give us victory over our enemies, you put our adversaries to shame. Any soldier will know that the basic weapon of warfare, in those days, were the bow and sword. Without which no soldier will not venture into the battle field. Even the famed Goliath was geared in full battle order when he faced David with the stones and the sling. Isn't it a paradox then that David, one of the finest soldiers Israel had ever produced, proclaims that its not the bow and the sword that gives the victory. Its is the Lord, Jehovah, that gives the victory. I don't think David is trying to say that we should not prepare ourselves for warfare. His concern is that we recognize that ultimately its the Lord that gives the victory. A few things we need to remember: Human efforts are necessary in the God-man partnership Human efforts alone does not guarantee God intended results Recognize that its God that always gives u
