The Overcoming Power of God's Love

Been listening to Pastor Prince' message titled 'The overcoming power of God's Love' for the past 2 weeks.

This message took place in January 2001. Pastor Prince mentioned that times of recession is times of progression for believers.

Amen to that!

Flip the newspapers and almost every page got screaming headlines of how countries, companies, families were badly affected by the economy downturn.

What we need is good news, good news of the gospel, good news of miracles, good news of edifying testimonies.

Good news can be found in His Word, His love letters to us which speaks into our lives in all seasons of our life.

Walking in Jesus love is our very first love, wanting to know more about Him and reading His love letters to us over and over again.

And it is only His love that fills and lifts us so high up that the problems that once seem so big and ugly to us now seem so small, like an ant that cannot be seen as it is now part of the scenary over shadowed by beautiful flowers and trees that God have marvelously created that we failed to notice, appreciate and enjoy its beauty as we have been focusing on our problems all the time.

Situations will turnaround as Jesus' perfect love have casted all fear out of our lives.

I blogged myself happy!

Ante natal class..

Today we attended ante natal class at kk again..

The facilitator gone through some relaxation exercises and breathing techniques with the class. Its amazing to see how some to be fathers are more involved by discussing with their spouse their experience and how to improve breathing techniques while other passive husbands just passively sat there and observe how their spouse are doing and ensure their wife did the right thing with little or no encouragement.

Some used encouraging words while others used words like 'you should have done this or tat' or simply, 'do this or that'

I think its the upbringing and the degree of bonding between spouse that differentiates the high level of spouse support even in mock breathing techniques exercises like this morning.

Some guys would give their spouse an encouraging touch while most will just sit there and cross their arms with a 'do me, i am here for the sake of being here, when do i get out of here!' attitude.

Spousal support is really important at all times.

Johanan' summer hat

Oh boy! I am excited over this new gift for baby! Got this as free gift from the magazine-.Mother and Baby'

Just realised that we have not started to buy anything for Johanan hehe..

We were so blessed to have people blessing us with gifts for baby and we have not really started on what baby needs.

God's promise for Johanan

Abba Father will take charge of Johanan' development and that He would knit and form Johanan perfectly within my womb.

Pregnancy and childbirth prayer extracted from chapter 16 of nerida walker's - God's plan for pregnancy'

'Thank you heavenly Father that the work that Jesus Christ did on the cross has redemed me from pain and complications, and by His stripes I am healed.

Body:you will carry my baby the way God designed you to until the perfect time for birth. Then you are to function efficiently throughout the labour and delivery without any complications or pain and harm.

You are then to recover quickly and effectively to a healthy condition and be restored from all wounds!

Amen!

Johanan's progress-6 months

How time flies, Johanan is now into 6 months old in mummy's womb.

He is mummy's alarm clock in the morning when mummy decided to sleep a little bit more.. And he will gently tap on mummy's belly and will stop once mummy is awake..think he woke me up cos my bladder is full and its giving him less space to move around..

Now mummy got some problems in a good sleeping posture, sleeping on my sides means Johanan will start kicking.. Cos he is uncomfortable..so far he is happy with mummy sleepin on her back.. Until he gets bigger then mummy have to sleep on the side liao..

When mummy is going to eat.. He will kick a couple of times..

He sleeps quite early nowadays , at about 10pm, how we know? Cos he did not respond to us when we placed our palms on our belly..hehe..

He will usually respond with a few slight taps on mummy's belly..

My identity in Christ

Extracted this from chapter 8 of Nerida Walker's -God's plan for pregnancy on How to exercise our authority.

When you understand who you are in Christ, you will realise that you no longer need to struggle with any spiritual attack or anything else that you are bound by because Satan's power and hold over you has already been broken.

This is why knowledge of who you are in Jesus Christ is so important. You can't exercise your faith and authority if you don't know what is available to you. When you pray with your authority in Jesus you are not praying in vain!

Things will happen! Sickness will flee, bodies will be healed, babies will be conceived, and lives will be changed forever!
