absence online

re-visited past entries

thankful that i'd been journaling testimonies of God's goodness from the beginning of my salvation

am much encouraged myself as i re-read some entries

not posted any entry for past 4 mths..

what a journey

so much grace, so much forgiveness.. unforgivenesss, so much evil, so much love..

watched the documentary movie furious love in mar, was bowled over by God's love all over again

God's protection is so apparent through so many things

i hadn't had to do anything or say anything except pray and obey when things go wrong, or when bad things happen

He hears our thoughts and answers our prayers and he is the One who makes and allow things to happen, for our good

He is always good and faithful

thoughts this morning (sat 24th)

what's the significance of the mulberry?

it's the way of warfare
coz battles are not ours but the Lord's 
we can't rely on our skills n experience, but we need to inquire of God what to do in battle.
victory belongs to God

2 Sam 5:18-25
David won his battle repeatedly when he waited at the mulberry tree, for the sign that God gave him, to advance, n it was in his obedience, n reliance on God's wisdom that he won the battles.

he did not assume that the battle can be won the same way as how it was won the previous time. he didn't go into battle on his own, but asked God whether he shld fight the battle, and waited for God to show him how.

even though we have past success and achievements, we are not to do the same thing again the same way, without first asking God..

do not assume that we have done this before and it works so this is how we should do it again..

situations change, God knows best
