"...but of Love, of Joy and of a Sound Mind."

Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling, and to make you stand in the presence of His glory blameless with great joy, to the only God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion and authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen. Jude 24-25

Good morning

I am posting this from the production house that I working with today. I asked the production assistant for persmission to use her PC. I spent the morning reading Leonard Ravenhill's "Revival God's Way". Just three pages and I found myself closing the book to reflect what he just shared. I am very inspired by his passion in living for God, esp in the area of prayer. He spoke against "easy-believism" which was so rampent in today's "instant-noodle" Christianity. This is the second book on revival written in 1983. His first book, "Why Revival Tarries" was written in 1958, but the that he talked about, the condition of some churches was so prophetic. I guess he wasn't a popular dude in Christiandom, but he sure fired up some people such as Keith Green. I bet he will not be popular if he is alive today for the stand that he took for God.

Last week in the leadership conference. The speaker encouraged the leaders to build clocks and not be a leader that only tells time, but time and time again, we need people to rise up at certain time to stand up when it's needed. Just like in the days of Elijah when the priests of God were either executed or in hiding, out came Elijah who stood tall among the pagans. He was the man of the hour.

What kind of leader do I want to be? I want to be clock-builder indeed, but I also believe that I need tell the time and point my finger to the clock. The time indeed is not far before the Lord judge not just the world, but also the church. I pray that God's word will pierce the hearts of every reader and hearers so that they may be engulfed by the spirit that guides and empowers us to walk in the light of His glory.

I am having a hangover from playing last night's version of "In You" in my head. Shiok man! U have to be there to experience it. I hope we can replicate what we did in future, or better still let every experience be a brand new expression of praise, worship and thanksgiving to God!
