Hey GOP-ers!
So this saturday was our CFC COMBINED PRAYER, TRUE HEARTS! It's in replacement of our annual overnight prayer in conjunction to our 40 day fast =) It was a really hardcore prayer night and the atmosphere was just so charged up. Before prayer, Shaunster shared about AAA! Access to All Areas of God's kingdom!
God wants to make CHAMPIONS out of us, we have to live life like we have the kingdom within us because God lives in us!
[Matthew 26:41] [Isaiah 59:1] [2 Chronicles 7:14]
God listens to ALL our prayers. Sometimes NO is His answer but He still answers all our prayers in His time. Our flesh does not understand the need for prayer but our Spirit Man is SUPERNATURAL and has to built through PRAYER!! Our prayer has to change from silent to VIOLENT because it says in the bible, the violent will take the kingdom by force!
[Matthew 7:7-8]
Ask! we have to realise who has the power and we have to be persistent in asking!
Seek! we have to keeep seeking til the object which we persue is found!
Knock! it is a violent and aggresive action that we all have to take!
[Acts 4:31]
THERE MUST BE SHAKING IN THE PLACE WHEN WE PRAY!!
[John 7:37-39]
Drink from Jesus! We need the power of God to achieve the impossible!
The Holy Spirit was described in the bible as gentle and pure, unseen but felt, the living water, an atmosphere. In other words, the Holy Spirit can be experienced! We create a spiritual environment when we pray in the Spirit which is praying in tongues! When our flesh is weak, it is when our Spirit Man is strongest!
Prayer enlarges us! We may be small on the outside or have no status, but when we pray, we are a giant inside!! Prayer empowers us! He gives us the strength to shake the place we pray at!!
[Psalm 24]
The earth is the Lord's, He owns EVERYTHING. And He gave everything He had to His son, Jesus, who now lives in us! We thus have an ACCESS to ALL AREAS of His kingdom! We have the power to claim the souls of those around us.
So GOP-ers, we have the power to claim our friends' lives. God lives within us and has given us the access to every part of His kingdom which now lives in us! In Shaunsters words, Do not be afraid like a small anorexic kitty but be the large saber-tooth tiger!!
After the sharing, we had an hour plus of praying which was split into 3 segments: praying for ourselves, for the people around us and then for Singapore. It was such a powerful time of prayer and the atmosphere was so filled with God's presence. So GOP-ers, never forget the importance of prayer =) Do come down next saturday for an awesome sharing!
Loves.
A Generation called to be deployed into ministry,
building the house of God.

Ushers
Ushers, like how the name suggest we usher people, welcoming them into the house of God. We tend to be the very first person you see before you enter the service hall.
Here in ushers ministry,we hope to bring joy to all who comes in, to give them a smile in the worst day and a warm hand shake with much love.
To put it simply,we want carry God's joy and love and spread it to everyone else.
Other than that, we provide direction to all the people who are new and lost or ensure that they are going the right place for service. This helps to ensure that they feel a sense of belonging and not helpless, wanted and not ignored.
And of course,passing the offering bags and giving out materials for sermon or events are also part of our wonderful ushering job. :)

The L.A Unit is divided into 3 different departments, all of which are inter-dependant on one another, which are Admin and Accounts, Manpower and Security.

Sound
Having an almighty God gracing our service every week and the bonus of a wonderful music team on the frontline to usher us through the gates of praise, youth service is often the place anyone would want to be at on a Saturday evening.
While the music team's role is to usher the congregation through the gates of praise, the sound ministry is hidden behind the scenes and is responsible for delivering the message and the music with clarity to the congregation.
Your job is mainly to provide and help out in the technical areas throughout the service.
