Miracle encounter is drawing really close now! This time next week, everything would have changed! The amazing signs and miracles that will be happening next week is still slowly trying to make sense to me.. We had a good time of prayer today at worshipnet, and im glad that so many there were so many words and visions released to us as we were praying. Thank You God.
Then we hit the streets for prayer walk, and this time it was in the city! I think i made a bit of progress this time because i actually managed to open my mouth and speak to a few people..although i got rejected, i felt pretty good after talking to them and wasn't really too worried on being rejected. For me i think this was a pretty big step for 'stepping out of my comfort zone' since i'm never used to the idea of speaking to strangers, even more sharing the gospel woth strangers. I know i should be, but i've never really done it before.. But i can safely say that i had lots of fun at the prayer walk today, and i'm just glad that im one step closer to being a more obediant child of God.

On a side note, as we were praying at worshipnet this morning, God just started reminding me of all the crazy amazing miracles that He did in the Old testment. I mean waaay back then, it was just God, and the things He did was totally whacked, like it is out of some fantasy story book or something. He made the parted the red sea, guided the Israelites with a pillar of fire, sent the 10 plauges to free the Israelites out of Egypt, opened the earth to swallow people, made the sun freeze in the sky for an entire day, caused fortified walls to come crumbling down, fed hundreds of thousands of Israelites with mana and quail in the middle of the desert, made water come out from rocks, killed armies by sending large hailstones from the sky, and sosososoo many more amazing things. God is the same yesterday, today, and forevermore! That is the same God that will be doing crazy things at next weeks mircale encounter, so we should never try to limit God to what He can do, because He can call forth things into existence that has never existed before. He is God!! I can't wait for next week because anything can happen, literally ANYTHING!! Expect the Unexpected!

Day 85.

Today i read of Joshua passing away at the age of 110 years old, and after that, the Israelites slowly fall back into their old sinful nature, and return to idol worshipping.
As i was reading, a verse stood out to me, and that was Joshua 24:14a

14
“Now therefore, fear the LORD, serve Him in sincerity and in truth

I always knew that we had to worship God in spirit and in truth, but this time it said to worship Him in sincerity and in truth. God wants sincere worship from us, we are to be honest when we are worshipping God. How often do we sincerely and honestly worship God with our heart? We can worship Him by singing songs and praising His name, but are we sincerely doing it? Or are we doing it because we're just used to it, or because everyone else around us is worshipping God too? So i guess one thing that i learnt today was that God wants us to worship him in sincerity, honestly, and not just giving lip service, but really mean every word we sing, and that it comes from the heart.
