Sharing from MG leader Cherry Wong Pastor Joshua and C-Mo are my role models in discipleship. They regard every staff and each of their spiritual children good. Despite our lowly lives, they trust that we are good. Therefore, I learn to treat all my spiritual children the same way, believing that they are excellent, humble, gentle and kind. I love them and take them as my own biological children. We share jokes, play together and go on retreat to Taiwan and Korea. After retreats, my relationship with my disciples has deepened a lot. Out of my love for my disciples, […]

The early spring of “Acceptable 2019” has brought warm weather, and two couples’ day camps held on the same day. One was tailor-made for the medical sector. How pleased I am to see the Couples’ Camp reach its 18-year milestone! Our disciples Chak Man and Elaine are doctors who long to disciple doctors: therefore, we organized a dinner meeting with some doctors. During the dinner, it was mentioned that 611 highly regarded family and marriage relationships. The “Couples’ Camp” is considered a signature camp of ours which appeals to many of them. Therefore, we promptly decided to hold a couples’ […]

My name is Juliet Lu, a cell member of Jerylyn Baligod in ANEW. In the past, I was in deep fear and worries. At the age of 15, I was told that I did not have long to live. But by God’s Grace, He preserves my life. When I turned 17, I was working in Manila and met my Taiwanese ex-husband.I moved to Taiwan and we had some happy times, but that did not last long because my husband beat me up after he was drunk even when I was pregnant. After much struggle, we are divorced leaving my child […]

Last Sunday, the seventh and final message of the “Jacob series” titled “Acceptable 2019: Jacob who Passes on the Promise” was preached. Thank God! The life of Jacob is just like the lives of many of us. It’s only by the mercy and election of God that he was able to enter into blessings and inherit the promises. Declaring in the first message of 2019 (6th Jan) that “God accepts us,” I have been walking in faith and beholding the Works of God! Especially in the beginning of this year, He led us to purchase a field of over 160,000 […]

During Chinese New Year, Saturday and Sunday ANEW cell leaders seized the golden opportunity and spent time together in Shing Mun Reservoir, what a precious time it was to us. We laughed, delighting ourselves in the beautiful scenery as well as the Word of God. Reading Proverbs 1 together, we shared our life struggles, family needs, financial burdens and marriage issues. From the Living Word of God and the sweet fellowship, we receive insight and wisdom we desperately need. Hence, we are renewed in faith, strength, hope and love for one another. May God continue to grow us to be […]

Starting from last week, we read the book of Revelation in morning devotion which we have done a few times before. As I revisit it again, I am deeply touched. Holy Spirit shows me that the Church is the Tree of Life. In the era of turbulent, turmoil and unrest it shall arise and speak out. It shall also bear fruits just as the Tree of Life, bringing hope, revival and transformation. In 2005, prompted by the Holy Spirit and for the sake of reviving Asia, “Holy Spirit 100” took place where we studied the bible and prayed for 100 […]

I am Fevilyn Manuel , a disciple of Pastor Roxan Lapitan. Years ago, I accepted Jesus Christ and decided to follow Him. Having little faith in God to provide for my financial needs, I took a part-time job on Sundays in order to provide for myself and my family. In my heart, I knew that I should keep my day off holy to the Lord and also, it is illegal to work part- time. Yet, I was happy with the extra money I earned. Before long, I lost my peace as I feared my employer would find out what I was […]

Entering the first year of “Planting Trees of Life everywhere in 52years”, the first thing God wants from us is to make every effort to enter His rest. Regardless of the positions held in church, all of us must adjust our pace in life to enter His rest. From de-cluttering our homes, to physical training, to restoring relationships, to connecting with God; we strive to be physically renewed through rest. From 26th of January till the end of October this year, the church shall enter rest in all areas. Apart from main meetings, all ministries will be reduced by half […]

With the coming of Chinese New Year, may I wish my family in Christ a blessed New Year! In Acceptable 2019, may we find peace and joy at home and at work; may we be hugely prosperous in everything we do; may we be greatly strengthened in discipleship as our lives continue to be uplifted! I especially bless our single members to meet their godly partners and be greatly accepted by God and man. At the end of 2018, I retreated with the “Curator Staff” to Kuching. In sheer amazement, we watched the galaxy God had created. Psalm 19 came […]
