MIRACLES ON THE ISLAND

I am so happy to return to the island of Labuan in East Malaysia. The last time I was in Labuan was in 2005. It is a beautiful island with nice beaches and people.

Here is a picture of me standing in front of a restaurant on the beach.

I am having steam boat dinner with the leadership team in Hope Labuan on the last night. We had so much food! Thank Kevin and everyone for the yummy food and fellowship. (below)

Miracles on the Island...

7There was an estate nearby that belonged to Publius, the chief official of the island. He welcomed us to his home and for three days entertained us hospitably. 8His father was sick in bed, suffering from fever and dysentery. Paul went in to see him and, after prayer, placed his hands on him and healed him. 9When this had happened, the rest of the sick on the island came and were cured. 10They honored us in many ways and when we were ready to sail, they furnished us with the supplies we needed. Acts 28:7-10

Apostle Paul and his friends were shipwrecked on Malta Island but they did not allow this incident to stop them from moving in the power of God. Apostle Paul prayed for the chief official's father on the island to be healed from fever and dysentery. God performed a miracle upon Apostle Paul's laying of hands and prayer. Then words spread like fire on the island that there was a man who could heal with the power of God. Many sick people on the island flocked to receive prayer for healing.

I am reminded of this story when we were conducting three healing meetings on Labuan island. Words spread all over town that we were conducting healing meetings. Many people, both young and old, came to receive prayer for healing. A family even caught a plane to the Labuan for the healing meeting. We shared a message of God's love and prayed for miracles to happen in the lives of people. We witnessed the power of God healing many people, emotionally and physically.

There was a young girl who suffered from vision impairment for the past year. She could not read from a long distance. After prayer, God healed this young girl's vision. She went all the way to the back of the church and was able to read every word on the PowerPoint. The whole church rejoiced at the mercy and grace of God.

If God used Apostle Paul and his friends who was shipwrecked on Malta island to perform miracles. God can use us to do great things wherever and whatever situation we are in. Glory to Him.

SUNSET IN KOTA KINABALU, SABAH

I had a wonderful afternoon on the beach with Ps Anthony and Moi Moi in Kota Kinabalu. I love the sea and beach. We had fresh coconut drinks and relaxed on the beach. Since I bought a new SLR camera, I was very eager to take photos of the sunset. I am still learning how to use my SLR camera. Anyone want to give me free tuition on how to use SLR camera? Ha-ha.





Guess what we had for dinner in Kota Kinabalu? Seafood! KK is famous for seafood. It is very fresh. At this restaurant, all the fish, prawns and crabs were in the water tanks and still alive before the chefs cook them. Wow! The crabs were tasty!

One of the things that God spoke to me lately is "Intimacy with Him". Jesus was very intimate with His Father when He was on earth. Jesus said, "I and the Father are one"

25Jesus answered, "I did tell you, but you do not believe. The miracles I do in my Father's name speak for me, 26but you do not believe because you are not my sheep. 27My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. 28I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one can snatch them out of my hand. 29My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all; no one can snatch them out of my Father's hand. 30I and the Father are one." John 10:25-29.

I want to be like Jesus who had a close relationship with God. Jesus did what God told him to do on earth. Jesus performed all the miracles through His relationship with God.

One of the great healings that took place in Kota Kinabalu was to see three totally deaf and mute people be healed by God at Sunday service. After prayer, they could hear the sounds of music and people praying for the first time. The whole church rejoiced at the mercy and grace of God upon their lives. Let's expect God to do more miracles at we draw close to Him.
