Prophetic Word for Pr. Ron & Grace on Sunday (Aug 17, 2008) by Kindah Greening:

For even as in the natural a man has keys, and that key is for that lock and that key is for that door. I declare unto you that not only in the natural but in the realm of the spirit that I have given unto you keys. It shall unlock situations that appear to be unlockable in times gone by. But I declare unto you that I shall give you a key that should unlock that situation. Hear the Word of the Lord, that there shall be keys, not one key but keys that shall unlock, unlock, unlock. The Spirit of the Lord hears the cry of your spirit. Handmaiden of the Lord… He’s with you. He’s with you.

There’s a new anointing. You’ve got hearts that are hungry for God, hungry for His appearing, hungry for the Spirit of God. Commitment is a word that I see inscribed over your hearts. God’s gonna give you people. He’s gonna give other people as well. They’re gonna join with your spirit and they’re gonna lift these hands that hang down low. Amen. They gonna lift them up.

Prophecy Over New Life by Kindah Greening

I want to tell you this, dear friends. this church is a powerful church and there are shafts that have gone out in the Spirit of the Lord. He sees the burden of your spirit. He’s heard the cry of your spirit into the air. But the Spirit of God would say, “There is more. There is more. There is more.” And you have known levels of the anointing. You have known what it is to be bathed in the Spirit and knowing levels of receptivity when the Spirit of God has hovered over your mind and your spirit and your heart.

And even as of old when the servant, David, knew one level of the anointing and he behaved himself wisely, then he knew another level of the anointing as he began to preside over one tribe, the tribe of Judah. But hear the Word of the Lord that there came a greater level, a greater expanding level of the anointing when finally, David was anointed not over one but over 12 tribes.

And I declare unto this house that if you should allow the Spirit of God to plumb a depth of relationship in the deep cry of your spirit, that I declare unto this house that there shall be a moving upward to another level of the anointing. You shall know what it is to move under the power of the presence of the anointing of the Holy Ghost. Your hands shall break through the prison house.

(Pic- John Jacks, a prophet from Australia/United States. Got to know him much better over the last two years although I have known him for a long time. He prophesy with great integrity and accuracy. I have great confidence in his prophetic word)

Faith for Life #29

I am not afraid.

The love that God has for me removes all fears.

God is for me.

Nothing can be against me.

I will overcome all challenges.

I am above and not below.

I will lift my head in victory because Jesus is the lifter of my head.

I win because of Him.

(Pic- Praying together with one of my oldest friend and fellow minister. Pastor Lawrence's support and
wisdom has been invaluable to my ministry. His influence on my life has been significant)

THE POWER OF CHEERING

Dear Church,

I was watching both the Democratic and Republican National Conventions on TV last week and was amazed at the reception and cheering that both Senator Barrack Obama and John McCain got from their supporters when it was their turns to address the gatherings.They were visibly thankful and touched by such overwhelming and thunderous support as they kept clapping and cheering despite nearly more than 10 'thank you's from the two candidates to get them to settle down so that they can start their speeches which were frequently interrupted by more cheering and clapping. The cheering seemed to impart greater and greater hope as the convention went on.

On the flipside, there is an equally great power from criticism which has plunged our national morale to our lowest level since independence. Instead of hope, the citizens of our country are feeling greater and greater despair.

Folks, cheering or encouraging one another can make or break a person or a nation or it can propel us into greatness. There is such a fine line between greatness and defeat that lends great credence to the power of cheer or encouragement.

We read in 1 Sam 23 how Jonathan encouraged David when the latter was relentlessly being hunted down by King Saul and often despaired of life eventhough the prophet Samuel had anointed him as king. David rose above his discouraging situations in life and soon achieved greatness in the annals of Israel. In part, he has Jonathan, his cheerleader to be thankful for.

For decades, China has been criticized for their lack of press freedom, religious persecution, pollution, corruption, trading red-tapes etc. China's leaders rose above the world's criticism and through the Olympics showed the good side of China that critics have overlooked. Criticism have a tendency to cause us to focus on what is bad and forget that there is a lot of good in the situation.

But you asked, 'Pastor, what if the person is wrong? Should we not criticise so that he/she will change?'

Folks, the biblical solution is to speak the truth in love. Eph 4:15

We only earn the right to correct a situation if we do it out of love for the person and not just because we want the other person to change. The operative word is 'love'.

Each of us have the power of cheering and encouragement to take another brother or sister to greatness. You have the power to bring our church to the next level of destiny that God has meant New Life to be.
Grace and I attempt to be your strongest cheerleaders which is one reason why we take the trouble to write birthday greetings to our leaders year after year. We never get tired to say the same things over and over again if they can cheer or encourage you on. Our desire is for our church to be a church made up of the most encouraging people the community has ever known.

We cheer for you because we believe in the great destiny our folks are heading for and we hope you too will cheer for us so that together we can build New Life into a great church.

Cheering for you,

Pastor Ron and Grace Hee

I want to share an email from one of our church folks that reflect the positiveness of the life that God has given us. Thanks, Mei Ling!! You are touching folks in Malaysia even when you are in Vietnam!!

Malaysia is 51

Our church believes that God has placed us in Malaysia for a purpose so for the last 8 years, we have been fasting and praying for our nation during the months of July and August.

We just completed another marathon 40 days of fasting and prayer for Malaysia.

It was no small feat.

Our beloved country is going through much disarray and it is really up to the church to determine the future of Malaysia.

We have the power of our almighty God to make a real difference.

Merdeka Weekend with Intercessors

Grace and I spent part the Merdeka weekend at P.D. with our intercessors to let them know how much that we appreciate them.

I wholeheartedly believe that prayer is the most important key to a healthy church.

Nothing can be accomplish without prayer because prayer is the spirit of humility that releases God's grace.

Every victory is due to God's grace.

I know that our church is destined for greater things because we have a group of folks who are so supportive of us and have such a love for the church.

They are of one mind and one spirit with us.

The spirit of oneness in this team just cause me to have a prayer of gratitude and thanksgiving to the Lord.

We saw such a beautiful sunset in the evening. It was as if God was showing forth His pleasure to us.

Thank you, Lord!!

One of those songs that expresses my heart is 'In Christ Alone'. It goes like this:

In Christ alone

I put my trust

and find my glory in the power of the cross

in every victory

let it be said of me

my source of strength

my source of hope

Is Christ alone

'CAN DO' CHURCH

We had one of the best camp gatherings with Pastor Kindah Greening of the King's Christian Centre at Port Dickson's Avillion Admiral Cove. The hotel has quite a picturesque surroundings with yachts parked at the piers. The food was in abundance and the rooms were 5 star. Our New Life folks responded extremely well to Pastor Kindah's animated, humorous style of ministry. This is his first overseas ministry since his quadriple bypass so this in itself is quite amazing. I got to know this remarkable man over this short period and greatly enjoyed the times of fellowship with him over meals. We contimue to text each other since the camp to keep our friendship going.

The following comments testified to the impact the camp has on our folks:

I believe that my faith is being raised to another higher level. Unity in our church has been strongly strengthened. Also, I believe that my attitude to commit myself and submit my undertakings to the Lord have been greatly energized…that there is nothing that cannot be done.- Paul Choong

It is great! My heart just feels like Pr. Ron’s favorite song… "There’s anointing in the air, I can feel it everywhere".- Simon and Annie

I have learned more about overcoming obstacles, generosity, unity and breaking through limitations. We can be a ‘Can Do’ church only if we learn to apply all those aspects in our lives.- Vi Vian Soon

The messages brought to light how we need to accentuate the good in others and the need to forgive as this leads to progress. I was also energized by the word on faith. What I took away from that was that worry causes us to panic and lose control. It distracts us from God who gives faith and vision for us to do great things. We serve a great God who will do great things through us, if we would only believe.- Gary Liew

v(^.^)v Camp was AWESOME. Not only was the place awesome, the people there was awesome, Pr. Kindah’s messages were awesome, the fellowship was awesome, the worship was awesome, the fun was awesome and God is totally Awesome!- Jing Ling

I felt there is an impartation of the ‘Can Do’ spirit and culture through Pr. Kindah’s anointing. The ‘“Can Do’ spirit is characterized by enthusiasm and confidence in taking on tasks and challenges. Simply put, everyone can do anything by ‘doing it one at a time in smaller size’…Philippians 4:13 really stands out.- KY & Angie Lim

I’m very glad to have attended such an awesome event. Pr. Kindah imparted valuable teachings to strengthen our walk of faith with Christ – the ‘Can Do’ factor. On top of that, it was a very special point of my life as a new chapter unfolds (my baptism/being born again). I’m glad to be part of this church, to have received so much joy, care, love and knowledge.- Amy Mah

I conducted my first water baptism as a Cell Leader. It was especially meaningful to me cos the one I help Pr. Lawrence baptize is the little sister (long lost) that I was united with through the grace of God. I am still amazed at how the love and grace of God is ever so merciful; to bring up people (from whatever depths of darkness and despair) to their full measure and potential that God sees in them. The church and the Body of Christ are thus subsequently being built up slowly but surely this way.For His Glory, we CAN DO it.- Yee Mih

Besides the great fun and fellowship with one another, one area that impacted me was the chapter on ‘The Power of the United Mind’. The Bible kind of unity is more than passive unity. Rather it is an aggressive teamwork! It is unity in action. Unity may be prayed for, hope for, but unity will never be achieved unless it is worked for.
I learnt that each of us need to put our actions (not just our talk) together in order to build a strong ‘Can Do Church’ as to accomplish the vision that God has for us and experience the power of teamwork so that the enemy will definitely be unable to divide us and God’s name can be glorified!- Lai Hing

I believe we believers have the first priority to catch the spirit of Can Do if we are close to Jesus because He initiated the spirit and the power of Can Do is flowing from within Him. God longs to gather the Can Do people to build a Can Do church with His Can Do spirit to glorify Him through His Can Do power and authority by God’s Can Do faith. Amen.- Lisa Yap (Puchong Church)

I have learned a lot from the camp, especially on the topic of ‘Generosity’. I think a lot of people view generosity as being generous with money but I definitely agree with the speaker that generosity also covers the way of thinking, the way of seeing and the way of living. The venue, the food, the fellowship and most importantly the presence of the Lord was just awesome.- Jennifer Chan

My room mates, Carolynn and Jennifer, and I have learned that we need to pray effectively and spend a lot of time in deep prayer to receive God’s ‘Can Do’ power and faith to be united to lead a successful Christian life.- Mdm. Wong

The message where Ps Kindah shared about unity truly opened my eyes and made me realize that without unity, really, we are nothing and we will be easily broken. I found the worship sessions good too! Not because I was part of the worship team but God's presence was so strong and the congregation was really filled with energy and excitement to praise Him like He deserves it. Food was okay but the rooms were really comfortable! :)- Sheena Soon

Bottom line, I learnt from the camp- Stephen G

I have learned that unity is very important in the church through Pr Kindah, picking up & collecting the sticks from us. - Tan Kwee Choo

An effective message on positive thinking to break walls of limitations to become overcomers.- JT Lim

Pr Kindah Greening's teaching challenges us to inculcate a CAN DO culture to increase our faith to do God's work.- Yau Wei Chung

The church camp has impacted our outlook and perspective of life, we need to uphold our faith in God steadfastly regardless of the circumstances, to think and act positively and adopt a never give up attitude in our walk with God has further affirmed our belief. Generosity, inculcation of values of generosity not merely projected outwardly but from the inner soul, instil generosity as part and parcel of our mindset and culture in our mission in enlarging the Kingdom of God.- Khong Jing Chang

The Word I received is those who believe in the promises of God and be CAN DO people will experience God's power working through them. HE is continually looking for people who will say-we CAN DO. God has showed us that we have the strength, abiding in HIM and put into action, we CAN become stronger and do all things through Christ who strengthens us.- Chay Wai Ling

CAN DO messages were down to earth. I love the fresh revelations on unity and generosity especially the visual part done by speaker and also the part on leaders’ declaration. Team activities were great too! Personally, the take home message for me is don’t underestimate the power of unity in our church. - Joanna Wee

The faith building messages shared by the speaker had caused me to believe in God for the seemingly impossible situations and also to have a more positive and CAN DO outlook. God taught me to be an overcomer and also experience a real breakthrough in my spiritual and financial blessing for HIS purpose. - Bobby Wee

The news about Pastor Mike Guglielmucci of PlanetShakers shocked many. My son, Nicholas, who is a big fan still could not believe it. To the many who have been touched by MG's ministry, I want to assure you that what God have done through his ministry is real and should not be taken away just because the vessel is faulty as all vessels are.

WHAT A WONDER YOU ARE!

Dearest Church,

Recently members of the Spanish Basketball team the players posed with their index fingers stretching their eyes to a thin slit in an attempt to look more Chinese as they posed for an advertisement next to a picture of the dragon.

This caused an uproar as many Chinese were offended as they regarded it to be racist.

Paul Gasol, one of the more reknown members of the team could not understand why and said, “If anybody feels offended by it we totally apologize for it. We never meant anything offensive by it.”

To him and many i suspect, imitation is the best form of flattery so why the hulabaloo.

One of the most powerful demon that could wreck marriages, separate friendships and destroy churches is the spirit of offence.

This demon is actively at work in Malaysia. The Chinese and Indians are hurt and offended that the Malays get all the government benefits despite working hard in nation building. The Malays are offended that the other races regard them as lazy and this hurt is a thick wall of separation between the races in our country.

The spirit of offence is also actively at work in churches where members can take offence at a wrong sentence or word a leader or pastor could have used in a sermon or in a conversation. They can be also offended that they do not get the praise and recognition they wanted although they knew that everything done is for the Lord and not for man.

This demon often manifest itself in pride (for e.g. pride in your own race, dialect etc), envy (we envy those who gets the breaks in life or get the commendation, success etc), inferiority (many Asians think that the whites are better than them) and insecurity (we often need to prove that we are better or the kiasu syndrome- ‘the fear of failure or losing out’).

One Christian brother who has known the Lord for many years, recently shared with tears in his eyes, how he had to struggle much with insecurity all his life. He related how he had difficulty relating with certain people who intimidated him.

Folks, the solution is to see how God sees us. In the book of Psalms chapter one hundred and thirty nine, the author tells us that we are wonderfully and marvellously made and that God has crowned us with glory and honour (Ps 8).

Once you accept yourselves fully and realised that God was thinking about you even before He made the world, all inferiority and smallness will vaporise from our minds. God chose to make you- the shape of your eyes, your height and the shape of your toes. You are a wonder conceived in God’s mind!!!

The spirit of offence will have no effect on a person who is fully assured of the wonder of his personhood and who knows that he is loved by his creator.

May the Lord grant us a revelation of the wonder and the marvel that we are.

Love,
Pastor Ron Hee

YOU GROW BY MAKING DECISIONS

"It's not what we know but what we do with what we know that changes us. We are the sum total of all the decisions we made in life." Bro. Jeremiah Yoong

A person may be many years going to church but if he does not make the decision to become a Christian, then it will not make any difference to his life.

What we know in our heads must go to our hearts for any transformation in our lives. That journey can only start with a decision.

You have a wife because one day you made the decision to commit and marry the person that you love.
Those who do not want to commit will bring no change to their marital status- they will remain single all their lives.

Your decisions indicate your commitments. The committed ones are those who bet their lives on it. The Bible tells us that those who lose their lives will save it.

Mat 16:25 If you try to hang on to your life, you will lose it. But if you give up your life for My sake, you will save it.

Not getting your hundredfold yet?

"And the Lord turned the captivity of Job when he prayed for his friends" Job:42:10

Oswald Chambers wrote:

If you are not getting the hundredfold more, not getting insight into God's word, then start praying for your friends, enter into the ministry of the interior. "The Lord turned the captivity of Job when he prayed for his friends." The real business of your life as a saved soul is intercessory prayer. Wherever God puts you in circumstances, pray immediately, pray that His atonement may be realized in other lives as it has been in yours. Pray for your friends now; pray for those with whom you come in contact now.

Secrets of Giving

.

Giving is not losing something you have but a seed you sow for gaining much

.

The type of seed determine the harvest

.

The size of the seed determine the size of the harvest

.

When we let go of what is in our hands, God will let go of what is in His hands... and God's hands are huge

.

Giving is a privilege enjoyed by only the few who have successfully wrestled the spirit of poverty to the ground

.

Isaac sow in the time of famine and he reaped a hundredfold

.

Sow even when in need

Have you a Cause?

Greatness comes to those who have found a cause to live for

and something to die for.

.

The Centre of your cause is the Lord Jesus

.

The Target of your cause is the world

.

The Power of your cause is the gospel

.

The Engine of your cause is the church

.

The Force of your cause is compassion

.

The Enemy of your cause is satan

M.A.D

Dear Church,

I hope you were as touched and inspired as I was last Sunday watching the video clip of Dick Hoyt's dedication and love for his son. Err….I cried. Don’t laugh… many of you cried as well.

Instead of surrendering to the hopelessness of the human condition, the father and son pair were able to turn their circumstances around to touch and inspired many lives all around the world…including mine and yours.

If you examine the lapel of your DNA make-up, you will find the words 'Made in Heaven'. Furthermore you might discover some instructions telling you that you are 'Created to Touch Lives'.

Jesus affirmed it when He commanded us to touch lives just before He ascended into heaven.

Mat 28:18-20 Jesus came and told His disciples, "I have been given all authority in heaven and on earth. (19) Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations (or touch lives for me everywhere- Ron Hee’s interpretation), baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. (20) Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age."

Just last week a new sister in Christ told me that my prayers for her made a difference in her business as well as in her relationship with her husband. That amazed and humbled me to think that a simple prayer offered in love can make such a difference.

I do not even remember the full name of the Hong Kong lady missionary (I only knew her as Madam Chan) who touched my life because she was daring enough to start a church in my town which was hitherto filled with hostile idol worshippers who are often her persecutors.

Hopefully, I in turn, am touching other lives and when I get to heaven, I hope someone will say, ‘I was a life that was changed (From ‘Thank you for giving to the Lord’ by Ray Boltz) and touched by God because of you.'

I borrowed the acronym M.A.D. (Make A Difference) from one of our church brothers, Jack Tan who last month, cycled 480km from Kuala Lumpur to Kuala Trengganu for charity to three organisations with New Life being one of the beneficiaries. We benefited an average of RM50 for every kilometer he cycled. Not bad, eh? Our brother has caught the spirit of making a difference and touching lives.

Folks, you too are making a difference if we persevere with the spirit of love for one another and help each other grow in the Lord. Your presence, your commitment and your dedication make a difference to God’s work in building His glorious church.

Your giving is making a difference to many nations and your prayers are transforming our nation. The results of the last election did not just happened. It happened because you and I have been praying for the last seven years.

Folks, let us determine that our lives here on earth will not be lived for ourselves but like the Hoyts, let us touch lives and make a difference with our words (power of life and death), our deeds (acts of faith), our prayers (supernatural grace that can move mountains), our hospitality and friendship (‘only love can make a miracle’) and our giving (the key to an overflowing barn) etc.

Stop right now and ask God to use your life to make a difference and touch lives.

Touching Nations, Touching Lives,
Pastor Ron Hee

God is MOVED by your needs but will ACT on your faith.

Your needs are not the issue; your faith is.

If you can believe it, you will receive it.

The Red Sea did not part when the Israelites cried in panic

but only when they went forward in faith. Walk by faith and not by feelings.

Love, Ron & Grace Hee

Healing Anointing on New Life

Two weeks ago, we were connected with Rodney Kirkpatrick from Durban, South Africa and he ministered to our full time staff and pastors on Tuesday morning. His prophetic word of knowledge was excitedly accurate as he pointed and prophesied on every staff present. I am sharing mine here because I believe this word is not just for me but for the New Life church in P.J.:

"I thank you for Ron, for his heart of compassion; for his shepherding gift; for giving him the grace and portion to preside over a real healing anointing in and through this place in the days ahead. Ron, I just hear the Lord saying that there are people healed that are here but the Lord is going to begin to bring to this place people who need healing especially in their hearts. I hear the Lord saying this place will be known as a place for binding up the broken hearts in the days ahead. God says one of the things that He is requiring of you is to teach and to emphasize is transparency. The church has become too religious and we are not willing to get the bad out so that it can be dealt with but I hear the Lord saying to you that if you teach the people that they need to be transparent; the things that are keeping the hurt from being healed will come forward; will get out of the way; and God will make this place a real flame of fire for His healing presence; a real place of refuge in increasing measure and in increasing degree in the days ahead."

Enraptured in God's Presence

I praise God for a wonderful worship experience this morning.

I am so thankful to the Lord for my prayer group that meets with me daily from 11am to 12.30pm or thereabouts when we worshipped and pray for the needs of the church or the nation.

This morning was one of those wonderful times when were so caught up and enraptured in God's presence that we felt we could go on worshipping the Lord Jesus forever.

Those who have experienced it would never complain that there is nothing to do except

to worship the Lord when we get to heaven.

And to think that we had just a mild taste of it compared to actually being in God's presence around His throne.

We started with an old song 'Ah Lord God' which seemed so inappropriate at that time but from then on we seemed to tap into God's wave which led us into the depth of the Lord's presence.

Pastor Patrick's worship anointing with the guitar is God-send.

The Bible said that we enter into heaven's gates with thanksgiving and into His courts with praise.

Pastor Lily explained that the Lord showed her that the gates of heaven were truly opened to us as we worshipped and that the blessings of heaven were ours to possess.

No wonder 'Worship-Intercession' is so effective.

Sis May felt that we were on 'holy ground' and that there were angels all around.

To those who have an ear let them hear. Let us believe and not doubt

No wonder after we ended the time of worship, I was led by to Spirit to bless the different areas of the church- the leaders, the Youth, the Children, the Myanmar ministry, Puchong Church etc

I thank God for this 'Heavenly' encounter.

Key To Answered Prayers

The Key to Intercessory prayer is for God to get us to the place where the well-being of others is more important than your own.

Faith works through love.

The most effective prayer is one that is offered in love and compassion.

When you feel that 'cry in your heart' and not just 'words from your lips', you will have the assurance that God has heard your prayer.

A broken heart prays the most powerful prayer.

Are we willing to be brokened for others?

I recalled an incident that happened when we still had our Myanmar service in Dengkil some years back.

One of the Myanmar brothers came seeking for prayer for a huge goiter on the side of his neck.

When I saw his condition, any ounce of faith that was in me flew out of the window.

No clever sounding prayer was sufficient for the situation and subsequently my prayer was feeble and weak. However I did recall a wave of compassion came over me and all I wanted was for God to touch this man.

Many months later, I was told that this man was asking around for me and I found out that the huge goiter shrivelled up during the night after the prayer and the man received a miracle from the Lord.

That is the power of compassion in our prayers.
