Our dear brother, Dachuan just got baptised last Friday. He is now John Luo.

Indeed, having known him for the past 5 years, he has changed so much…and this journey towards baptism has been arduous; nevertheless, he pressed on and lived by his convictions.

Baptism is an outward sign of an inward change; it’s a call towards obedience, discipleship. I encourage you, if you are not yet baptised, to take up this step of obedience and discipleship.

Read about his testimony:

Before I came to know Jesus Christ personally, Christianity was a kind of culture and religion to me. I heard about Jesus Christ many times, but it was never a reality to me. My attitude then was like: it would be good if I know more about it; but if I don’t, I won’t feel like I would have less than any other. And my mind-set then was like: if there is God, then prove it to me.

However, as time went on, more and more, I feel the need to address certain issues in life. I need to have answers to questions like “why am I so busy for? What on earth am I here for? Where can I find my sense of security?  Does it lie in my social status, my ability to earn money, or in other people’s opinion of me?” I didn’t have the answer. As a result, there was emptiness deep inside. I know that something was missing in my life.

Until I turned 16, I came to Singapore. I met a group of people, and later on they became my friends for life. This bunch of people is like no other I’ve ever met before. They are Christians. They believe in God. As I get along with them, I see and experience something more in their lives. And that is that they have a sense of purpose in their lives. And they are secure and content. They are willing to give and help others. However, as they tried to convince me that: hey God is a real, and God loves me and He loves me so much that He sent His one and only Son Jesus to die for me on the cross. I didn’t understand. Actually, I didn’t care because I’ve heard it so many times that it sounds cliché to me. And but I kept my mind open, I did not mind to know more.

I hang around with them. I followed them going to church every Sunday. And I realize that church is not like what I thought previously, like boring or whatsoever. There is so much joy and fun to be in a Christian community. And so many times I shed my tears because of joy and because I’ m so touched. And I realize that that was the something that I’ve been searching for all the while. And the emptiness is the God-shaped vacuum that only Jesus can fill. Since then my lifestyle started to change. I started to spend time together with them praying and caring for others. I started to read the Word of God. More importantly, I developed a personal relationship with God. I know God is so loving and faithful that He’s always there for me, carrying me through the ups and downs.

And now as I look back the days when I did not have Jesus in my life, I realize I was so lost. Without Jesus, I might still be searching for my sense of security and  identity, but it would be like running on a treadmill, that getting me to nowhere. It is only in Jesus that I found these answers.

I realized that many times “If Only” statements are part of faith

“If only I touched His robe, I will be healed” - The woman with the bleeding thought (Mat 9: 20 - 22)

“If only Jesus laid hand on my sickly daughter, she will be healed” - The Jews ruler thought (Mat 9:18-19)

“If only Jesus saw our paralytic friend, he will be able to walk” - The 4 dudes who broke somebody’s roof to lower down their paralytic friend’s mat thought (Mark 2:1-12)

“If only Jesus knew where I am, He will heal me” - The blind beggar who shouted ‘Jesus, Son of David have mercy on me’ at Jericho thought

These people thought “If Only” believing that Jesus is able to do something and He wants to do it. It’s a desperation, yet knowing that if we ask hard enough God will give it to us (because it is His will and within His power).

All of us know that it is God’s will for all men to be saved (1 Tim 2:3-4). All of us know that God has the power to save our friends/relatives. However many times we do not have the “If Only”. Or worse we have the “if only” but we do not want to do the “if only” (the beggar needed to shout, the woman with bleeding need to make her way through the crowd, the 4 friends made a hole on somebody’s roof). What are these “if only” needed for you to see God works in your life and your marketplace?

I would like to suggest the following “if only”s

“If only my friends come to good Friday party, If only I invite them, If only …”

God Bless! :)

During the G12 conference, both Ps Cesar & Ps Khong talked about this powerful verse from Revelations 12:11 “We overcome by the blood of the lamb, and word of our testimonies….”

And when Delirious sang their song “Jesus’ Blood”, it really brought us to a place of new revelatory experience of the victory of the Blood of Jesus. Confess every day the blood of Jesus over your life, over your mind, emotions, spirit, body, family, studies, workplace, relationships, ministry etc.

I post their youtube video here: watch?v=-CmZOHtFQFM&feature=related

Let us put our faith in the victory of the Blood of Jesus. Then we shall overcome.

Isn’t it mind-boggling…what God can do with someone who is totally yielded to Him?

Look at Ps Cesar’s daughter, Sarah. She’s only 17 years old. Yet when she preached during the G12 conference, she was so anointed. She has 3000 cells under her charge. Wow…she believes God, and gives herself totally to the vision. And the amazing thing is that she is only 17 years old.

Lesson: God can use youths to influence the multitudes. :-| Rise up young people.

Just yesterday, SP shared about this man from Bogota. He tried to commit suicide 10 times, but he failed. And after the 10th time, he finally realised that there must be Someone up there who was trying to prevent him from dying. He went to Ps Cesar’s church, and gave his life to Christ. God set him free from drug addictions.

However, after years of drug abuse, his mind became quite wasted. He could not sit still and concentrate for a long time. Hence, he could not attend School of Leaders. Miguel became very sad and desperate, for he wanted very much to serve God. He came before God one day, and opened up the bible and put over his head, crying out to God to heal his mind.

And God did that. His mind became good…he could memorise Scriptures and understand the Word of God.

Today, he has 10 000 cells under him. And he became one of Pastor Cesar’s 12. :-|

Lesson: God can use anyone who gives his life to Him totally.

Let us rise up in faith in our mighty God, that He will use you and I to implement the Vision successfully. Will you yield to Him totally?

SP preached an anointed message last Sun about faith. I came back after YN144 Leaders’ Batam Retreat, and went online and listened to the message…2 times. My heart was stirred. Indeed it is true. Without faith, it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to Him must believe that he exists and he rewards those who earnestly seek Him (Heb 11:6).

We need to activate our faith in God’s person. in his power, and in his purposes every day of our lives. We need his anointing. We need to tap into his supernatural power to live a victorious life; to live a transformed life. Only a transformed life can bring transformation to others.

If u have missed out this anointed sermon, checkout www.fcbc.org.sg/faith_sermons.asp

Listen with a humble heart this message from God. This is the message for this season. Respond with all your heart.
