5th LYPG '10 Report

Time: 1400-1530
Date: 17th April
Place: FGC main sanctuary
Number of people who showed up: 14
What we did: worship and prayer, group prayer and waiting on God, sharing

This time we actually split into groups to wait, pray, and share what we received from God personally.

This is what Missy reported from her group:
*We need to be rooted in the Word of God.
If not, our faith will be shaken easily.
We cannot evangelize (mentor, work in ministry etc.)

*Being complacent in our comfort zones.
Crime and chaos that are happening so rampantly are not affecting us because of the “It’s happening to everybody what. It’s no surprise anymore.” and “It’s not happening to me.” mindsets.
SIN OF OMISSION IS JUST AS BAD AS SIN OF COMMISSION.

*Do we really want God to strike something bad at us before we can be aware of what’s going on in Malaysia?
Do we really want God to do something drastic to us in order to get our attention and concern?
We need to question ourselves whether we care enough about His people, whether we have a burden to love His people.
If we care enough, we wouldn’t be just sitting back as audiences only.

This is what my group received:
*Parable of the Rich Man.
The rich man didn’t do anything wrong, but he went to hell because of what he didn’t do what he should and could – sin of omission.
IT TAKES ONLY ONE PERSON TO MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE.

*We sometimes feel unimportant like if you’re the only Christian in a class.
We just go with the flow and not do what we should (like praying) because we are not shaken.
We are not rising up until we are shaken, and THEN only we rise up – shouldn’t be that way.

*空(empty) – prayer/ spiritual atmosphere is empty
命(command) – We have to obey God’s laws and commands, and He commands us to pray
挣(throw) – God or you yourself have to throw yourself out of your comfort zone
崩(shaken) – Warning, if we don’t start to pray or rise up we’ll get shaken; it’s a process we have to go through if we do want to continue praying and doing God’s work, could be an experience that will shake us, maybe scare us

*Mindset – wrong mindset of the people
Bad things are happening in the world because of wrong mindset (eg. Abusing young children, even babies)
Churches are having wrong mindsets of unity (eg. They welcome pre-believers but do not welcome believers from other churches)
People don’t see the importance of interceding for their own nation (eg. Old and young generations alike take prayer lightly)

Be convicted and encouraged!
