Dear Brothers and Sisters,

Belated Blessed Christmas to everyone in here! smile.gif

I shared this earlier in another thread but I guessed I posted in the incorrect thread (or maybe God sent me there to awake the souls of others). I just found out there is a LYN Christian Fellowship V6 (Group) from one of the fellow members in here. And here I am. Thank God for sending me a messenger smile.gif


Would like to share with everyone my life-changing testimony that God changed me and came into my life. If you don't believe it, I don't mind. You may choose to mock me, or call me a liar, or maybe I need mental psychiatric help (tanjong rambutan), or maybe I am telling the truth...? You may share your own testimony too. smile.gif

If you are currently living a life of bondages - drug addiction, sex addiction, alcohol addiction, gambling addiction, jealousy, hatred, fame, fortune, money; feeling spiritually empty (you have done all there is in this life, feeling physically satisfied, but you feel something is still missing.... what else is there to life?? You wake up in the morning thinking, is this all there is to life? This testimony is destined by God for you to read. It is not by accident or coincidence you are reading this. JOHN 8:32 – THEN YOU WILL KNOW THE TRUTH, AND THE TRUTH WILL SET YOU FREE


All Glory to God! - by Allan Phang


20 Dec 2012, by Allan Phang:

Firstly, I would like to thank God for His grace and mercy for giving me this opportunity to share my testimony. I come humbly before God as I share my testimony on how God has touched my life. It is a bit long… sorry about that but what needs to be said has to be said. "He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God." (Micah 6:8).

All Glory to our Lord Jesus Christ!

Why am I sharing this? After my late grandfather’s death recently, I realized that if I don’t share my testimony, I will be doing a great injustice to everyone I know. Our life on earth is short. Although this article is only a summary of my testimony shared during my church baptism, I would like to share this testimony to everyone out there– my friends, associates and especially everyone who is facing difficulties in your life. There is hope…there is a God.

Ever since God came into my life, friends and family members alike used to frequently asked me this question, "Allan, what changed you? You're a changed person for the better. How did it happen? Why now?"

Most of the things that I did in the past were for my own self indulgence and personal glory (Please read this part carefully. There are many of my generation – Generation X and Y who suffer similiar bondages). I was too engrossed in and blinded by the lifestyles of the world – MONEY, FAME, FORTUNE, PARTY and GIRLS were constantly on my mind. These were the trophies I was well-known for among my friends. My peer nickname back then was 'Party King', 'Player' and 'Playboy'. I used to go clubbing, partying or raving, sometimes up to seven days a week! I was addicted to drinking alcohol, opening bottle after bottle of liquor, yamseng* glass after glass, getting drunk, talking like a samseng or gangster, swearing and cursing with many languages like there is no tomorrow, gambling in casinos, playing 4D, hacking computers, involving with designer drugs and illicit underworld activities and worshipping satanic forces unconsciously. Despite me having the fast and glorious lifestyle, I was still jealous of those richer than me, living in bigger houses and had hotter girl friends. I was also revengeful and hateful to those who hurt me and the list goes on.

I used to be very proud of myself. In my line of work, I meet a lot of VVIPS, including billionaires, millionaires, people with high authority, ministers, heads of state, the cream of the crop of the powerful people in the country. I felt that I was on top of this world until I met God.

Photo References: The VVIPS I meet in my line of work: http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.3...33963578&type=3 (Just some photos. Not all are in here)

So when my friends asked me, “What changed you?”, my reply was, "It's not me. It’s all GOD’s work." When I became a believer, I was constantly judged and smirked upon for upholding my new found faith. My reply to them was: "You, then, why do you judge your brother? Or why do you look down on your brother? For we will all stand before God's judgment seat." (Romans 14:10)

Talking about faith, I have heard testimonies from Malaysian non-believers who used the name of JESUS to cast away evil spirits and demons that were disturbing them. They felt helpless using chants of other faiths which didn’t work. But when they used the name of JESUS, the demons disappeared instantly! And after their personal encounters, they became believers of Christ. The Bible says that the Name of Jesus is above every name! "Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and give Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father" (Philippians 2:9-11). When our words have become His Words, every evil force around us must bow to that Name. Jesus has given us the authority to use His Name.

I’ve also heard the testimony of a previous gang leader in Kuala Lumpur who accepted Christ and is now serving the Lord. And just a couple of days ago, I had the opportunity to listen to a testimony of a person who was involved in the navy, special forces and organized crime. He was in the country’s Most Wanted List and ended up serving jail time. But now, he is serving the Lord in many nations! Friends, God has no favourites in the world we live in. He uses people in the most mysterious ways, regardless of one’s material wealth or popularity. "But if you do what is wrong, you will be paid back for the wrong you have done. For God has no favorites." (Colossians 3:25)

Testimony of Bro Owen Pomana (was on Most Wanted List for 17 charges, ie: armed kidnapping and carjacking of a wealthy businessman’s son, robbed the biggest drug dealers in the state). “That night I went down to the beach in front of my apartment, and I cried out, ‘If there is a God, you need to help me. You know my life. If you help me, I promise to give up the guns, the drugs and the violence’.”

My dad passed away when I was only two years old and I was the only child. I didn’t have any fatherly figure to look up to. But I thank God for my mum who single-handedly raised me up as the sole-bread winner of the household. Born in a Christian family, I was practically 'dragged' out of my bed every Sunday morning and forced to attend Sunday school untill I was 12 years old… Sound familiar? I also attended Bible classes untill I was 15 years old and served in ministry. In college, I attended the college's Christian Fellowship. Once I started working, God was completely out of my life. I was lost for approximately 10 years, only seeking and praying to God when I faced problems during that time… Sound familiar again?

Although I made my yearly visit to church during Christmas and showed other's that I am a Christian, I was only a Christian on official papers, but deep down inside me, I had no clue, and I did not understand what and who Jesus Christ is all about. I did not read the Bible because I couldn’t understand a word in the Bible at all. And every time I suffered a bad relationship– heartbroken and dejected– I would go out and drown my sorrows away in alcohol and clubbing thinking that it would make me feel better, which did leave me feeling good for awhile. But when the next day came, after a hangover, the cycle repeated itself like a “repeat button” on the remote control. I was in a downward spiral effect. In short, I was lost for many, many years walking in the wilderness. I had no direction in life, no hope, and felt very lifeless. I was spiritually empty, if not negative already.

Then, one day, a friend of mine from Glad Tidings PJ shared the gospel to me. I was deeply touched and convicted by the Holy Spirit that I was not walking right with God at all. It seemed like God was giving me a tight slap!! Thank God for it!

THAT WAS MY TURNING POINT OF MY ENTIRE LIFE!

That Sunday itself (April 15th, 2012), I went to Glad Tidings PJ. The moment I stepped into the church, I felt a sense of serenity and joy that descended upon me. When Pastor Vincent Leoh called for an altar call, I went out, said the sinner’s prayer (with the help of Pastor Michael Tan too) and committed my life fully to Christ on that day itself.

Without wasting time, I joined a cell group the following Friday and ever since then, I have been attending the cell group every week, rain or shine. I enjoy the fellowship! The members are very encouraging and I learned so much about the Word of God. I also started attending BSF – Bible Study Fellowship. If someone told me about it earlier, I would have given them the “you must be kidding me” kind of look because I was the last person to ever go near a Bible back then!

Since then, I have attended a few courses conducted by pastors in the church. I also went to the Glad Tidings PJ church camp this year and it was indeed an eye opener for me. It’s great to be in the family of God and enjoy God’s wonderful presence in the camp. During the camp, I wept in front of a crowd of a few hundred people. Never in my life have I cried publicly like that. I later realized that I was touched by the Holy Spirit.

My decision to accept Christ was not easy. I felt as if I was rowing against the multitude current of waves. I faced a lot of resistance when I accepted Christ. People close to me said “Allan, you (still) stand to lose the inheritance of this world (even) if you are baptized and become a born-again Christian." But a little voice in my heart replied automatically, “Allan, you are inheriting the Kingdom of God”.

Now, it has been about 8 months since I stepped into Glad Tidings PJ. Let me share with you what has taken place :


Firstly, I find so much love, joy and peace in God now overflowing in my heart that I cannot help but share the gospel and my experiences with my friends. As for my family, I am still praying very hard to share the Good News to them too. Hopefully, there will be more and more of my friends, especially the “yamseng, talk like a samseng” ones will come to know Christ.

"Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. The second is this: Love your neighbour as yourself. There is no commandment greater than these." (Mark 12:30-31)

Secondly, now, I can speak in tongues. Praying and talking to Jesus daily is what I love to do now. His presence is so real and tangible in my life. Many of my friends even teased and made fun of me. Some have even nicknamed me Pastor, although I know that it is not man to be appointed as one but only by a calling from God.


Thirdly, reading the Bible is no longer a problem anymore. Now, the Word of God just pops up like a 3-D effect. It’s really awesome! Praise God!

user posted image


Fourthly, as I keep reading the Bible daily, God’s truth has indeed set me free– away from my old self, wrong beliefs, wrong lifestyles and bondages of the world.

JOHN 8:32 – THEN YOU WILL KNOW THE TRUTH, AND THE TRUTH WILL SET YOU FREE

I now seek to have the fruits of the spirit in me:

"But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against these things!"(Galatians 5:22-23)

I am free now to be who and what God wants me to be. Hallelujah! Praise the Lord! The lifestyles that I enjoyed last time, now I find no fulfillment in them anymore. I believe this is what our Pastor Vincent Leoh has been talking about, dying to the old self and now I am a new creation in Christ Jesus.

I used to think that people who listen to Praise and Worship music were “crazy”. I thought in my heart, “Isn’t there any better music to listen to like Lady Gaga or rave music?” Now, I beg to differ. I realized what I have been missing out all this time! I now play Praise and Worship music to the max whenever I am driving! Ironic but true.

Now, on Fridays, no more clubbing for me but I have a new place to go, to my new found family in Christ and that is my home cell at Bandar Utama.

God has indeed blessed me with every spiritual blessings – physically, mentally and many areas of my life. I have witnessed how He has answered my prayers, touched and transformed me.

The 3 minutes youtube video below by Billy Graham basically sums up what I believe in. People from the worldly world get the most famous misconception that Christianity is just a religion. It is MORE than that. It is about having a RELATIONSHIP with GOD. I never expected my life to change… being released from the bondages and darkness of this world and living in the light. Definitely not some new-age theology or my own willpower could help me overcome my bondages and sins (They say only time heals. Incorrect. Only God heals). I am not perfect. Nobody is perfect. We are all born sinners. Please don't look at me, for I am just another human like you too. Look towards God. I am saved, ONLY by God's grace and mercy. All Glory to our Lord Jesus Christ!!

God will bless you and your desires in your heart. Seek Him. Seek first the Kingdom of God.



Thank you for reading. God bless you.


From a Child of God,
Allan Phang
P/S: Thank you to all the pastors from Glad Tidings PJ and every brother and sister in Christ whom have came into my life.

QUOTE(Jedi @ Dec 26 2012, 03:31 PM)
Per pehkay,

just to remind our christian bros n sis, bible context:

“all Israel will be saved” from Romans 11:26  (Israeli murderers, robbers, sorcerers, fornicators, etc., who do not repent will not be saved)
I appreciate this sharing, however to poster: I maybe younger than you, but I hope I can help you in anyway I could.

THerefore I cut short your article to quote the most important parts which you believe now. I am sorry for not providing full advice as I am on a rush I have a plane to catch to Rome in 3 hours.

When a person accepts Christ, yes, Glory be to God, he is often on ecstacy.

1) Not everyone who says Lord Lord will enter Kingdom of Heaven. 'Matthew 7:21'

Anyone can do things in Jesus' name. And it can have an effect. It does not equate the person is a true follower of God. Some does things for fame, for self-glorification, for power. Yet Jesus allows it, Yet God allows it. But the power belongs to Christ alone.

THerefore, it works.

and Praise be to God to all those who come to believe after divine intervention. Which is in the case of your sharing.

2) 'now i can speak in tongues'

Dear brother u must understand that, the Lord desires us to be humble. Even if u have the power to speak in tongues, we should not boast of it. Maybe Unknown Warrior brother would elaborate and help you further in this one.

Also in the past, miracles are aplenty (Biblical miracles) bec Christians are evangelising. The early Christians. Ppl need to see in order to believe (Blessed are those who believe when they dont see)

Now in todays world, really, miracles like casting demons, visions of angels saints and Christ, Speak in tongues are rare. Not everybody has that. And blessed are those who have, but those gifts are to serve Christ.

THerefore we must be mindful of our speeches and be humble.

3) Everyone has fruits of the holy spirit, but not everyone has gifts of the holy spirit - refer http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gifts_of_the_Holy_Spirit

It depends on Gods will, and how God intends for us to utilise us to serve Him and bring others closer to Him. Everyone has different vocation.

4) BE careful when you read the Bible. Often encourages group discussion, ask brothers n sis when you are doubtful, and have a bible which provides commentaries.

Be careful when choosing materials to listen to. Billy Graham may be good, but Early Church Father's writings are the best. (Google ECF writings)

Do not read Billy Graham's antisemitic articles and books though. Some are not in compliant with Bible or Christ's teachings.

5) Peace be with you, Merry Christmas and God be with You.
Last advice: We rejoice at Resurrection of Christ, but we must also remind ourselves of the Passion of Christ, because it is His Blood that redeems, His Life on earth is a model example to us all.

Never forget about it. It helps us when we face spiritual physical and mental warfare everyday.

Dear All,

I am a normal joe just like everyone else out there. I believe there are others out there like me who faced similar problems and bondages, and I would like to share how God helped me overcome those problems and struggles in my life. Below i will talk about my sex addiction, alcohol addiction, drug addiction, bondages of the world, dabbling with the occult - Freemasons, etc). I could never have overcome all of this alone. All glory to God!! smile.gif

You won't find the following in-depth testimony written by me below anywhere else on the internet. Why did I bother typing all this, I also don't know. Nobody instructed me to type out all this and share it. Maybe God? I hope it will help those who is in need of help, especially those with problems and struggles in your life. Those who feel they have a perfect life, please stop reading this. My writing might seem ridiculous to you. smile.gif


My purpose of being in here in this religion thread:
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «



Part 1 - Sharing the Good News

Part 2 - Sharing the Good News - Why can't we stop death? Adam & Eve

Part 3 - Sharing the Good News - Why is there evil on earth? Who Is Satan?: What Does the Bible Say About the Devil?

Part 4 - Sharing the Good News - Who is Jesus Christ?


Part 5 - Sharing the Good News - Unresolved Bondages and Deliverance

Before I accepted Christ as my personal Lord and Saviour, I had no idea or clue about this at all:- Unresolved Bondages and Deliverance

Little did I know there is more than meets the eye. "What you don't see, you don't believe. When there is no proof, you don't believe". This is the understanding of the worldly world. In fact, I began to realise and understand that the spiritual world is more real than the "what you see world". What you are about to read below is my personal true account. These are details that Satan, the devil and the world of darkness and evil forces do not want you to read (ever!)


This is my personal account of my testimony on the bondages I personally faced and experienced deliverance. All thanks and glory to God !!

deliverance (dictionary meaning)
1) The action of being rescued or set free: "prayers for deliverance".
2) A formal or authoritative utterance.
3) The act of delivering or the condition of being delivered.
4) Rescue from bondage or danger.


Have you heard of this below?

"My boyfriend cheated on me. My girlfriend cheated on me. My wife cheated on me. My husband cheated on me", having affairs (single men with married women, single women with married men, married women with married men, girlfriend cheating on boyfriend, boyfriend cheating on girlfriend, etc.).

_______

Unresolved Bondages and Deliverance:

Note: Think back over your past as far back as you can remember and mark any of these things that you have practised, been involved in or experienced. In order to be fully released from your struggles, everything must be brought out into the light. If anything is hidden (do not hide), then neither the help of God nor human counsel can be forthcoming.

Are you walking in the darkness or walking in the light?

Walking in the Light

Word of God:
"This is the message we have heard from him and proclaim to you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all. If we say we have fellowship with him while we walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. 7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin. If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. (1 John: 5-9)

"To reject the law is to praise the wicked; to obey the law is to fight them." (Proverbs 28:4)

All the above-mentioned are some of the bondages of this world. We are all born sinners. We are not born to sin, but we are born with sin. I have experienced some of them and I'm sure many people out there (especially the Malaysian youths and young adults) may have gone through similar or even more than me.

I would like to share my experience and how I managed to overcome the following bondages below with God's help, grace and mercy.

1) Sex addiction (pornography, visiting vice dens / brothels, freelancers / escorts)
2) Alcohol addiction / clubbing / rave / party like a rockstar (drink until drunk)
3) Gambling addiction (casinos, lottery, 4D, "mah kei", etc)
4) Drug addiction (ecstasy, bong, "fai cai", cocaine, heroine, etc)
5) Occult - Freemasons (indirectly involved)


1) Sex addiction
It started off with watching pornography on the internet. Then it wasn't enough. I was going out of control. I used to visit those vice dens / brothels / unhealthy karaokes in KL and around the world. I even ordered foreign freelancers/escorts when they came to Malaysia. In KL, some of the popular vice dens treated me like a VIP (that's how regular I was). I would even get sms on the latest "stock" arrivals and FR (field report - BJ, CIM, etc). Let me tell you this, I believe that the urban male community (approx. 8 out of 10) have visited these places before. Have you visited? Only God knows. When I enter those places, it is packed with guys, like a "shopping mall on year-end sale". To name a few places in KL; S*yrver, S*boon, E*, 3 star hotels, etc. After a while, it was boring as it was too easy. I needed the thrill of chasing - after a girl. That's when I started to hit the club scene.

There are so many people out there committing adultery (guys and gals). Be it prostitution, or having affairs. The belief is that "It's OK cause everyone is doing it". And "as long as i don't get caught by my wife / husband / boyfriend / girlfriend, it's alright". Then there are those that give the reasoning: "what's wrong with it? It's legal in some countries; Holland, Thailand, Singapore, etc. It's good for the economy, etc". That's exactly what the power of darkness wants you to believe. I thank God, being given a second chance at life to share this with others.


2) Alcohol addiction / clubbing / rave/ party like a rockstar
I used to to be addicted to drinking alcohol especially during my clubbing days and used to party like a rockstar in some of the most happening spots in the world with VIP treatment - Hollywood, Orange County (O.C) USA - (yes exactly like in the movies The O.C), KL, Singapore, Germany, Thailand, Taiwan, Philippines, Indonesia, etc. Also attended rave parties, etc. I even got drunk talking nonsense about politics and economics with an A-list Hollywood celebrity in Hollywood in a residence filled with A-List celebrities. I used to hit the clubs whenever I broke up in a relationship. Spending more money opening bottles, binge drinking (5 seconds, 10 seconds), and getting even more girls from the clubs. After accepting Christ, I realised that alcohol addiction is not good and can only get us into more trouble.

Explain why alcohol is good? "Allan, because it relieves me of stress and calms me down when I'm worried or face troubles with my boyfriend/girlfriend/work/husband/wife/etc". Another lie of the devil. Drinking is definitely not the solution to solving any stress and worries. You just get a hangover the next day and the cycle will continue on and on. Alcohol damages the liver and and can cause death (drink driving, etc.). Clubbing and raving, majority of the music you hear are all worshipping satanic forces. And the signs clubbers and ravers do are all worshipping satan (esp. all those photos you see of clubbers). Unfortunately, they have no idea what they are doing. I am thankful to God that I've stopped worshipping satanic and the forces of darkness:

Now, I don't need alcohol to de-stress me. I give all my worries to God now. I do the praying, and trust that He takes care of all my worries be it big or small. If the worries are solved, I give all my thanks to God. If the worries are not solved, I still give thanks and it means God has his reason and other plans for me.

Word of God:

"Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you." (1 Peter 5:7)

For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. (Jeremiah 29:11)

"Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you who belong to Christ Jesus." (1 Thessalonians 5:18)



3) Gambling addiction
I used to buy lottery tickets, 4D, gambling in casinos, "mah kei", etc. Gamble on football, gamble on almost everything and anything possible!


4) Drug addiction
I am thankful to God that I did not have to experience heroine and cocaine addiction like some cases you hear in the newspapers. But that doesn't mean bong and "fai cai" and ecstasy are not a drug. I used to be a social drug user, ie during raves and full moon parties.


5) Occult - Freemasons
I was previously indirectly involved with the Freemasons. I won't go into details. They say "A picture is worth a thousand words". Here's one:

Wow! I felt on top of the world back then, doing all the things of this world (and some that most people could only dream of)....until God came into my life. I woke up one day realising money, girls, fame, fortune and status, is not everything in this world. Yes I've done charity work before. I used to be involved with Leo Clubs, Circle-K (Kiwanis Down's Syndrome), etc. I felt my life was no longer fulfilling. Physically I felt fulfilled by the pleasures of this world. Spiritually I felt a total zero (Even though I do good works and deeds and help people out). Am I gonna wake up and live the rest of my life and die a life chasing and enjoying material wealth, girls, money, fame, fortune, power and status in this life? That same week, I went to church (April 15th, 2012) and accepted Christ as my Lord and Saviour. All my close friends were indeed culture-shocked. 180 degree life-changing. No more swear words coming out from my mouth, all the above bondages and more, etc. I feel peace and joy in my life now. Not afraid of dying anymore. Living a meaningful life. Why? Because I know the TRUTH.

I am really happy to be freed from all these bondages. I give thanks and all glory goes to God!!

Word of God:

"Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” (John 8:32)


"When you follow the desires of your sinful nature, the results are very clear: sexual immorality, impurity, lustful pleasures, idolatry, sorcery, hostility, quarreling, jealousy, outbursts of anger, selfish ambition, dissension, division, envy, drunkenness, wild parties, and other sins like these. Let me tell you again, as I have before, that anyone living that sort of life will not inherit the Kingdom of God." (Galatians 5: 19-21)

"But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against these things! Those who belong to Christ Jesus have nailed the passions and desires of their sinful nature to his cross and crucified them there. Since we are living by the Spirit, let us follow the Spirit’s leading in every part of our lives. Let us not become conceited, or provoke one another, or be jealous of one another." (Galatians 5:22-26)


Important:
I am not a saint. All the above can happen to both believers and non-believers as well. Doesn't mean you are Christian that you are "protected" from all this. Temptations are always there till we die. It's how strong our walk with God which will enable us to flee from it. If you think you can withstand all the temptations with your own willpower and without God's help, Satan and the devil will prove you wrong.


Summary:

1) God saved me from the darkness and bondages of this world.


2) We can make the most important decision of our life. The choice to believe or not to believe in Jesus Christ. Not even the decision of getting married, having kids, choosing your girlfriend/boyfriend/husband/wife is as important as this.

Word of God:

"For God loved the world so much that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not die but have eternal life." (John 3:16)

"Go in through the narrow gate, because the gate to hell is wide and the road that leads to it is easy, and there are many who travel it. But the gate to life is narrow and the way that leads to it is hard, and there are few people who find it. (Matthew 7:13-14)



3) Please do also google the following below for further knowledge on the spiritual realm related to the above bondages (These spirits are very real! If you think it's a lie, you have a choice to continue living believing that it is a lie. I have already shared this. That is the best I can do):

- Incubus and Succubus Demons
- Jezebel Spirit
- Principalities and Powers
- Soul Ties
- Generational Curses


4) Nobody told me to share all this in here. Not my friends, not my family, not my pastor, nor my church. I just felt like sharing, coming sincerely from my heart on how God changed my life. And I'm not proud at all, but instead grateful and happy to share it. I speak humbly before God.


Thank you for reading. It is not by accident, coincidence or fate that you are reading this.


Everything mentioned in here has to be made cross-referenced with the Word of God. This is to discern from the truth and those not of the truth.


Dear God,

I pray that those whom are reading this that You will open their spiritual eyes. Word of God: "Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.” (John 8:32). And that by Your grace and mercy, you come into their lives and touch their heart and lives. I come humbly before you God in sharing the Good News and the Word of God. Anyone who understands from the sharing in here is not by my own doing or works. For all glory goes to you God!! Word of God: "For the word of God is alive and powerful. It is sharper than the sharpest two-edged sword, cutting between soul and spirit, between joint and marrow. It exposes our innermost thoughts and desires." (Hebrews 4:12). In Jesus most precious name I pray, Amen.




Thanks and God bless you,
Allan

Hi skydrake,

Before you sleep, pray to God to protect you and cover you with the blood of Jesus Christ in your garden of dreams.

Also pray to God to fill you with the Holy Spirit in your dreams.

When we sleep, we are not in control physically, that's one of the most vulnerable times when the forces of darkness and evil spirits are most active.

Try playing praise and worship music while you are sleeping too. It helps.

God bless,
Allan
