Following God

The coming weekend will be the last sermon in the “Hospitality” series, and the beginning of Phase 5 of the “Zechariah Church Building project”. From these, I am made aware of the good will and the guidance of our heavenly Father, and His acceptance of us. Phase 5 of this revival project includes building of the “Garden of Eden” on our purchased land in Cheung Chau, and renovation of the Multimedia Centre at Young Ya Industrial Building. Renovation at Young Ya has taken a long while because we had requested to change the usage of the site, and government approval […]

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’ […]

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 […]

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 […]

As we returned from Australia on the morning of the 4th day of
Chinese New Year, I am thankful to have spent the first service of
Chinese New Year with you all.

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 […]

26th Jan marks my wife Delphine’s 60th birthday. In my life, Delphine is truly the 360 degree (all-round) wife God has given me. From knowing each other, dating, discipling, building church, to planting Trees of Life everywhere etc., she has always been my most important partner in life.

Last week, C-Mo and I took a few of our disciples to Taiwan, so as to exhort and fellowship with the local branch churches in Douliu, Tainan and Kaohsiung. We made special allowance for a trip to visit Elder Chang Ching, who is the eldest working master of sculpture in Taiwan and indeed a national treasure. His artworks for our church include the magnificent “Spirit of the Almighty” placed before the Mercy Seat, and “Ancient Cross” situated at the ground floor entrance. Hearing the vision of “Planting Trees of Life everywhere in 52 years” and seeing how God has been […]

“Acceptable 2019” also means “Favorable 2019”. It was “Return 2018” last year, meaning that as we return to God, He shall accept us and return to us. This year, through Psalm 19, God tells us that He accepts us, and that 2019 shall be a year of Lord’s favor upon us: where God shall be gracious to us, bringing down many blessings on us. As 2019 begins, good news starts to pour in! On the 1st of January, right after Morning Devotion, several brothers and sisters came to me, to joyfully tell me they are now starting relationships. How happy […]

Happy Year 2019! Praise the Lord for His overflowing grace from the beginning to the end of the year as good news keep pouring in. Over 1700 brothers and sisters took part in year-end prayer meeting of 2018, jam-packed the Mercy Seat and main hall of Wealthy Garden. Together, we counted the many gracious returns from God in “Return 2018”, welcoming 2019 which is forecast to see Holy Spirit flowing freely among us.

Last week, C-Mo and I brought our MG Leaders and Steering Committee to Kuching and Sabah in Malaysia for a year-end retreat. The Holy Spirit was with us, enlightening us in the Word of God and leading us to build deeper relationships in Him. I am grateful for the pastors and co-workers of our daughter church in Kuching, who took very good care of us in both catering and accommodation. We felt truly at home. Through living together and interacting with one another, we delighted ourselves in the abundance of God. Some of our MG Leaders sentimentally shared their life […]
