The last saturday before UNSTOPPABLE
Do you guys know that if we do not 'revise' or 'reflect' about what we learned during the day (especially a lesson etc), we would forget it within 24 hours? It might not be 100%, but more than half- yes. That's what i heard from a teacher who taught me math last year. He often asked my class to revise what we learned in the day when we get back home. We asked why, and he told us this logic. I don't know if it would work since i do not have any scientific evidence, but, i can be a living testimony about forgetting more than half of what i'd learned in the day. LOL! (maybe i've a lousy memory) In addition to yesterday's entry:
Reflecting of sermon/teaching that you'd learned from today's service/meeting can leads to MEDITATION.
Just to share what i'd learned today. In my own conclusion, i'd said that there're 2 types of repentance. 1 is called 'simple' repentance and the 2 is called 'genuine' repentance. Simple repentance is just repenting, trying to stop yourself from repeating the same mistake again and again. I'd thought that 'genuine' repentance should be a type of repentance that really gives it all and put it to a force of stopping from the mistake to happen again. Sound contradicting.. Hmm.. What i'd mean is that, genuine repentance is a heart that really want to cease all kind of connection with the mistake that it made, a heart that would give all out to see it from happening even if caused discomfort.
Another that i'd learned is about the big difference between individual and group repentance. It reminds me of a cheer leading team. It doesn't sound exactly the same as what i'd learned. A little twisted. Lemme share about what i'd learned first. Group repentance is explosive. I'd thought it might sound more like a rocket. The fire that push it upwards is like what group repentance means, i guess? (:
Talking about the cheer leading team. Imagine with me, that there're a few stacks of human, stacking on one another. The 1st stack on the floor contain the largest amount of people followed by the 2nd stack on top of the 1st stack, containing a few amount lesser than the 1st stack. And the pattern goes on. This type of team work lead to one conclusion. The last stack is always ONE person standing on top, giving a victory or 'yay' signal. Isn't that what you often see in TV? Maybe not, but i did. As i twisted the perspective more towards the spiritual realm, i feel as if that all of us who are working hard are that few stacks of human. WHY?
The 1st stack on the floor containing the largest amount of people are like our leaders. The many leaders that built our foundation strong and hold us on. Followed by us, all of us who are being led by the leaders, being hold by the leader, to stand firm on their shoulders, hands or whatsoever that lead us to move on higher. And guess who is the last single one standing on top? That's God. As we stack on, we lift Him higher and higher. Higher and higher to show the world who is the Victory, to show satan who's the King.
However, there's always a disadvantage in this. If one fell, maybe the rest could hold on. If many fell, that's it. But the thing is, should we even fall? Unity is shown in this type of cheer leading team and we're part of the 'cheer leading' team. This show that we're not going to fall, we're going to stay on, we're going to lift God higher and higher. We're gonna share all up and down together despite spiritual warfare, persecution or many more.
We'd UDMM that talked about spiritual warfare (i think i'd shared what i wanted to share above already). Followed by some of us who left for shepherd's meet before heading home.
How are you guys feeling? Whole body pumped up for camp? Hah! Me too, and guess what? It's just few more days time from now! Do prepare yourself well for the camp :D
jiayou peeps! :D

Repentance that leads to revival
Joel 2:12-17
1) I need to personally repent (v12-14)
a: I need to repent now (v12)
b: I need to repent bcos of God's grace (v13)
2) I need to repent together (v15-17)

2) The breastplate of righteousness- Proverbs 4:23
3) The shoes of preparation of the gospel- 2 Timothy 4:2
a: Intellectual preparation
b: Spiritual preparation
4) Shield of faith
5) Helmet of salvation- Proverbs 23:7

As today worship's song was being sung, it goes..
In my life be lifted high
In our world be lifted high
In our love be lifted high
In my life be lifted high
In our world be lifted high
In our love be lifted high
[high yeah high yeah..]
In my life be lifted high
In our world be lifted high
In our love be lifted high
[be lifted be lifted high..]
In my life be lifted high
In our world be lifted high
In our love be lifted high
It rly awes me when i felt Father sitting at the highest in His throne.
When i sung it, i realised my heart had a strong urge of lifting God higher and
higher. I felt my hand trying to reach up higher and higher to the King who is
sitting at the throne. My heart was filled with awe and gratitude that cannot be
explained. A type of joy and happiness overwhelmed me.. God is so much higher
than anything..
jiayou peeps! :D
