Spiritual Warriors!


Maybe because we have begun to do warfare these days (at home with kids and in prayer meeting), our kids have kind of tap on the warrior spirit.
Three weeks ago, we had an amazing time during the Youth Cell Meeting. The Spirit came upon the entire meeting, and the youth received the gifts of the Spirit. We even had a time of warring in the spiritual realm. It was something we did not prepared for but have been praying for it to happen. It was just awesome! And at the end of the meeting when we prayed for Jason, who was leaving for UK, everyone had a vision and a word for him (yes, they boldly spoke forth even though they were "newbies"!)
After we ended the meeting, Skye told Josh that he was fighting the devil earlier on. And after fighting for a while, there was this picture of him and Jesus standing next to him. I asked him about his vision later to confirmed if it was a picture he drew on paper. He replied it was a picture he had in his mind! 
Maybe I should take it by faith that he was warring for his daddy and mommy during the meeting, and that he saw victory even before we did. It is also a great assurance to know that our son knows Jesus is the victory and Jesus is always with him.
Last Sunday service, both of them were sitting in during the sermon, listening to their grandfather preach about Spiritual Warfare. And Trinity caught him saying "fighting the devil" and promptly turned to me and said firmly, "I can fight the devil also!"

Bible Reading

(Skye fixed up this model of the moon rotating around the earth on his own just by reading the manual. I wasn't even aware till it was done!)
This morning, Skye took out his bible (my NIV bible which I gave it to him some time back) and proudly showed it to me, telling me he's going to read the bible. So he sat on the sofa, doing his own bible reading, reading out in a voice. After reading, he showed me the verses he read 1 Corinthians 9:20 and Obadiah. 
I managed to keep cool while cleaning up the milk mess Trinity created. But having Skye read the verse to me (while I was cleaning), brought a sense of indescribable peace. My good Lord always gives me the portion I need, and this accentuate the truth that God's Word is living and full of power in its own.
