Weekend with Rev Richard Roberts

God spoke to me in S5

service was great....healings signs and wonders indeed followed e Word in EVERY service. mans...i shldve gone for every svc. anywaez...e messages were good. dun really have e notes bcos e messages are rather short but impactful.

was late for svc today T_T. left hse at 1040, missed bus bcos of 'modified' time lapse and SBS timetable due to the downpour. worse still, waited 30min for e next bus and when it came, it was full! so i phoned my mum to drive me dere.

by e time i reached dere, praise has ended...but e worship was good. i was deeply touched by e presence and e power of God durin worship. after wad happened yesterdae...that long fight with e devil and e long fight with myself....tink i only shared with seth and kexin. and only God knew my struggle yesterdae. as i was worshippin God....His presence touched me and God said to me,

"Andrew, you are stronger than a lot of people. Through these times you were in your worst, but u still regarded Me as your best....you are strong, and I will do great works through you..."

those 3 words that melted my entire being...."YOU ARE STRONG" at tt point of time...e painful memories of wad happened last night....e painful memories and the battle scars i fought with e devil last night, flashed in my memory. and when i heard God spoke those 3 words...YOU ARE STRONG...

i began to cry....tears flowed down my eyes...and i told God...even though all will forsake me, I will still love you, even though i maybe goin through hell, i still love you and your praise shall continually be in my mouth. even though my world collapses around me, i will still say to you I love...even if i dun feel you...i will still say i love you...

Service 5

-mk 10:46-52, mt 4:24

-a complete message/sermon/service shld be like this:
1. Praise and Worship
2. Preaching and teaching of the Word
3. Miracles, signs and wonders

-faith has to be stirred up
-you dont need to be a minister to witness...we are ALL called to be witnesses until the day He comes back again.

-People are just instruments, not your Source.
-when there is an answer, we CRY OUT for it.

-its time to change our stinking thinking. take off your beggar's robe! (blind beggar)
-God did not put the robe on you (sickness, poverty, failure, disappointment, depression, etc...), He created u in HIS image.
-God is not a beggar God...Hes your savior, your provider, your redeemer, your healer! and your friend.

SERVICE 6 (prophecy: changing gears frm seed realm to e Lord of the Harvest!)

-luk 10:2

-God wants you to SHIFT GEARS in your beliefs in the Scripture.
-'labourers' = people who focus on the HaRVEST.

-God did not ask you to climb mountains, but to SPEAK TO IT....be removed! e.g. when praying for e sick, u dun pray TO the person, but u pray and rebuke (to say, "Stop it! That's enough!") the SICKNESS that is IN the person.

-God wants you blessed

- 000 - Seed and Soil Illustration - 000 -

when u plant a seed, e soil (Devil) overwhelms it and tries to discourage you frm ur dreams/visions; attacks u in e area of your DESIRED RESULT of the seed.

but NEVER despise your seed, the NEVER despise GOD who GROWS the seed. continue to be faithful and sooner or later, your seed will shoot frm e ground and no longer will e soil (devil) have a hold on ur life but ull be e head and not e tail, above n not beneath!

ur seed will eventually penetrate e soil and bear forth FRUITS! -> Dont just desire gifts...desire FRUITS. e.g. a true pastor doesnt need people's money thru offerings, bcos a true pastor desires the FRUITS and the HARVEST of the seed tt e church has planted. (besides, a true pastor desires the spiritual and e supernatural...)

-John 3:16
-God GAVE because of a DESIRED RESULT.
-What is your DESIRED RESULT today? in e area of ur studies, career, relationships, etc? start sowing!

But more than sowing, indeed we have done plenty of sowing of seeds oredy...its time to FOCUS on the Lord of the HARVEST. its time for e church to CHANGE GEAR, and move frm the realm of e seed, to e realm of the harvest!

indeed e harvest IS plentiful, but e labourers are few. lets PRAY to God, that we will be THAT labourer, for His kingdom and His glory.

THOUGHTS

many a times, we sow and we sow and we sow, but in order to see e fruits, we must start changing gears frm e seed to the HARVEST!

jus came back frm a great time at orchard with my cg. loads of cold jokes and plenty of outbursts of laughter frm wayne hahaha.

really want to take this time to thank God for:

1. seth. someone that i can talk to because without him, i wouldnt have won e battle yesterdae.

2. kexin. for sending me e malestripper which made me laugh until i cried and until my whole face turned RED!!!! lols...

3. And to thank God for being with me, even though i maybe going through hell, but because of what Hes done on e Cross, HEAVEN is IN me! and no weapon formed against me shall prosper! ;)

lookin forward to combined PM with S5 and S6 on tues 7.45pm, and BS on wed, ministry on Friday, CG on saturday and service on Sunday! yeah!!!! =)
