Reaching Out To You.


Praying For The Lost. 1. “Why pray? If God wants them to come, they will come. I don’t have to pray for them.” 2. “Why pray again? I prayed for them long time ago already.” 3. “Prayer is useless, I will rather invite my friends to church personally.” 4. “No point praying, there is no improvement at all.” 5. “When should I stop praying? I’m busy with my exams and work. I can’t be praying for them forever right?” 6. “Don’t worry. They will come to know God when the time is right. Rather, I should worry about myself first.” 7. “I don’t care about the rest, that’s their business. As long as I’m saved, I’m OK.” 8. “Why pray now? The evangelistic meeting is held next month. It’s too early anyway.” Sounds familiar? Have you ever have such thoughts in your mind before? What is wrong with them? Well, they are all self-centered thoughts which portray prayer into a chore, thoughts that have no place for love, a lack of love for the lost. One will pray for his or her loves one out of love, persistently and regularly. Praying for the lost does not happen only when the evangelistic meeting is around the corner. It is the love of God that we experience that compels us to pray for our loves one, friends, relatives and the needy. We love God because He first loves us. Look back into your life and be grateful how God has helped you in your darkest moments, moments where no man is able to save you but only God, through Jesus Christ. How awesome is the love of the Almighty God! Start sharing this love with the lost, through prayers with the love of God in your heart of hearts. “This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him.” 1 John 4:9 This Week @ Detonate: Come and hear the Word of God by Brother Weston this coming Saturday at 4.45pm sharp!

In this world that we are living in, we often heard people talking about "me, myself and I." Sadly, people are often caught up in this individualistic society that they pay little or no attention to the needy. In the Parable of the Good Samaritan, Luke 10:25-37, the Bible teaches us to love our neighbour as ourselves. To help and serve others who are in need. We can see this in other similar verses, “Nobody should seek his own good, but the good of others.” - 1 Corinthians 10:24. “Each one should use whatever gift he has received to serve others, faithfully administering God's grace in its various forms.” - 1 Peter 4:10. If you are still not convince, “For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” - Mark 10:45. We must not be like the priest or Levite who do nothing to help the victim. They were the ones who understood the law well, yet being righteous on the outward appearance, they acted otherwise. Are you acting like the priest or Levite? Do some soul searching and we will know the answer ourselves. Confess and ask God for forgiveness. Let us walk our talk and obey Jesus. Just as He has said, “Go and do likewise.” This Week @ Detonate: Come and hear the Word of God this coming Saturday at 4.45pm sharp! See You!

Labels: Impacting Lives, Love love is. Last Sunday I was sharing on the lesson of love for discipleship class. Though I have been through the same lesson for umpteenth time, He never fails to reveal another depth of this thing called LOVE. Impacting lives is about love, isn't it so? Loving people matters so much to God that it becomes the second greatest commandment that Christ speaks about in Matthew 22 (verse 37-39). "Now that you have purified yourselves by obeying the truth so that you have sincere love for your brothers, love one another deeply, from the heart." 1 Peter 1:22 We are called to love one another with the same kind of agape love that God first love us with, from the heart. God did not love us with His mind, because loving people is not from thinking logically. In fact, it is the opposite! He ask us to love our neighbours and our enemies, much more than ourselves! Love is acceptance (and many more...). If we wanna impact the people around us, we love them with the love of God, from the heart. More so for our brothers and sisters in the same body, because by our love for each other that all men will know we are His disciples:) Look forward to!: Counting down 15 days to our youth/church camp! 15 days to answering the call of our lives!
