Our Little Warrior

Yesterday morning, Trinity was mumbling some words off the posters outside her room when out of the blue, she exclaimed, "I want to go prayer walk!". That was a total surprise! 

And today, she had a little chat with me about fighting Goliath! We were sitting at the dining table and she was finishing her orange juice when she turned and told me she wanted to fight Goliath. She said in her cutesy yet firm voice, "I hold the sword and fight Goliath." After reminding her that she's holding the sword of the Spirit, she went on to say, "I put on the armor of God, hold the sword and fight Goliath...I hold David's hand... David's hand is small, I hold David's hand and fight Goliath!"

This little sweetie of ours, at the age of 2 years and 5 months, has already learnt the full armor of God, exclaimed she wanted to go prayer walk and wants to fight Goliath. I knew God gave her the special personality that she has for a special purpose!

"I Love God"

Skye drew this on last sat morning. My heart is so comforted, so extremely overjoyed, when I saw the words "I love God" on the truck, it's like God sending us a message saying we're on the right track in imparting to our kids, the faith and love for our Awesome God!

Prayer Walking Warriors!

A few months ago, God spoke to my heart about intercessory prayer for my neighbours. I asked the Lord, "There's so much work to be done, so many people to pray for, You have to show me how to do that." The Lord answered me - bring the kids for prayerwalk. So ever since then, my two little darlings have been my prayer partners in this "Prayer Walking the Estate" project!

We have completed Block 652 (that's our block) and 651. Today, we started on 649. Before we began, we held hands and pray for covering. Then on the way to the battle ground, we sang "In the Name of Jesus." Skye always likes the part about demons fleeing in the Name of Jesus. (And he likes showing us how the devil runs when he quotes from the Amour of God chart "The sword of the Spirit is the word of God. Speak it and watch the devil run........"). Sometimes, the kids will "blesssss....." the neighbours. Today, I enlisted Skye's help by getting him to pray in tongues for a couple of muslim houses.

After finishing six floors, we ended with power declaration!

Power Declaration!

I have started stirring the kids to declare praises aloud at home. Today, after lunch, (randomly again), I looked at them and said, "C'mon, let's say 'Praise the Lord' three times." And together, Skye and Trinity shouted with all their might, "Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord!" Then we ended by giving the Lord a clap offering. 

Even with their kiddy voices, I felt as if the heavenly and earthly realm shook! The power declaration not only gave God the praises that He deserves, it also met the enemy and declared that Jesus is the Lord of this household!

Heart of Worship 2

This morning i woke and the first thought that came to my mind was to give praise to my God. So i did and I spent just 1-2 mins in bed praising Him in whisper praise when skye entered the room worshipping aloud and this time he was not aware i was awake yet, so i kept silent and pretended to be alseep so i could hear what he was saying to God. This is some of what i heard: "O God You are wonderful. Praise You Lord. God is good. I praise You Jesus. *tongues.............* You are marvellous. You are Redeemer. I love You Jesus. ... " was what he went on and on and on for the next 5-10mins while figuring out a wooden puzzle game! I thought it was quite funny multi-tasking the 2 things, but isn't that the way our lifestyle should be? worshipping God so naturally that it becomes continuous even whilst going about our daily tasks... wow! what a powerful lesson indeed!

Thank You, Father, for using my son to teach me such a valuable trait You desire to see in my life as well. Pour out a double even triple anointing on my children, let Lynda and I see a generation of youths and young people turning to You becos of what You purposed in my children's lives.

Thank You, Lord Jesus.

Heart of Worship

Two nights ago (sat), when we settle down for prayer time before bed, Skye started bursting out, speaking in tongues. This is not is his first time, but we were totally surprised at this sudden outburst without our prompting. At that time, I had barely gotten far from "Dear Heavenly Father..."

It was amazing! He went on praising in tongues and singing in the spirit "Hallelujah, praise You Lord..." Was "heaps" amazing! The praises were like flowing out from his mouth, and he was real serious about what he was doing, with his eyes closed and his voice going loud and soft, could almost hear the intensity in his voice.

Then finally after more than 5 minutes, he collapsed, saying, "Mommy, I'm tired of praying already. " At that moment, I just thought to myself, "Wow, what a wonderful way to end the day, praising God till we fall asleep in His bosom."

That was the longest ever we've heard Skye praising in tongues. It is always our prayer that God will put in our kids a heart of worship for the Sovereign God. 

"Thank You LORD, for allowing us to witness the answer to our prayers."
