     What I got from Jesus is: Don't be afraid, just believe!

     

     Most Christians remember this famous saying, but when times come most Christians do not know how to live it out. You know why? Because this is a relational and incarnational question.

     Relational is because you need to have an intimate personal relationship similar to a father and a son to experience the power of what Jesus says. Without that relationship, it's just like you have a powerful loving father who will risk his life to save you when you are drown but you have gone too far away from him. 

     Incarnational is because we have the Lord within us when we received Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior. The new life leads us to exercise the faith in us to do what Jesus wants us to do right away. Jesus is just one step away! Do you believe that? If you believe and experience, then you won't be afraid even on your death bed! Right?

     Do you have that relational and incarnational pieces of puzzle inside determine whether you are going to be afraid or not.

     Remember, Jesus says, "Don't be afraid, just believe!"

Dear Lord Jesus,

Lead us into that relational and incarnational path so that we won't be afriad of anything but to believe in you totally. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.

**NEW link for the 12th 100 days 24 hours prayer campaign (from December 04, 2012 to March 14, 2013)

The easiest way is to take one hour slot for the whole week. What you need to do is very simple. Choose one dayThe easiest way is to take one hour slot for the whole week to pray for me, my family and my ministry, remembering the ministry of ACiC(ACiC has two Networks: ACiC, Anglican Coalition in Canada and AI, Asian Initiative). You may use the whole hour in prayer or you can still do you work in your office but use as much time as you can to pray and the other time work prayerfully that hour to pray for our ministry. This campaign is also to teach you that you need somebody to pray for you daily. I have been prayed for hourly the past 1,200 days and I have never experienced this kind of peace and protection before. It's just beyond words can express. If I did not listen and obey to Jesus call 1,200 days ago to start this prayer movement, I think I would be pulled into darkness and discouragement already! I deeply believe that this is a way to draw as many participation as we can in prayers. I encourage you to participate. We need you to join us! Trust in the power of prayers!
