Hi guys!!!! It’s been a while hey 
So, here i am now, back in Perth – Australia. I just got back from Indonesia 4 days ago.
God has been doing AMAZING stuffs in our journey in Indonesia. When we were in J-City, we did lots and lots of evangelism in slump area and prostituion area. Here is the highlight;
One me and my team went to some slump area under the bridge, we were wondering around and just greeting the people there. And then some lady greeted us and we had small chat outside her house. She told us that her daughter was missing since July 2008 and she hasn’t able to find her. I asked her if we could pray for her, and she said “Yes!!”. She invited us to come into her house, and i prayed for her. I was able to shared with her about some scripture in Luke 7:24,
For whoever wants to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for me will save it.
I encouraged her that the way to win something is to lose it. Laying down our right to God (FYI, she wasn’t a christian) and that God also understand what she felt because He also lost his son, Jesus at the cross. She felt so blessed and encouraged after i prayed for her. And then the next week we came to visit her again. She said that the night after we prayed for her, she felt so much peace in her heart and when she prayed to God (whom she doesn’t know the name, our God) she was crying sooo hard and felt that her pain in her heart was taken away, she felt sooo LIGHT!! It was amazing!!!!
On our 2nd visitation, i told the lady that in order to get the FULLNESS of God, she needs to be under His authority, meaning she needs to give her life fully to God, Jesus Christ. And guess what???
SHE DID IT!!!! WOW!!!!! That was the FIRST TIME ever in my life to help someone come to the lord!!!! I am so HAPPY!!!! Praise GOD!!!
After she finished the salvation prayer we asked her if she wants a bible or not, and she said yes. she just jumped out into reading the bible right away. I was able to led her into clear understanding, it was John chapter 1. 
Seeing her like tht was soooooo encouraged me and my team!!!
WOOOW!!!
So far for the last three month, the theme of my life is “Knowing the Love and the FULLNESS of Him”. God has been speaking to me heaps of time about love and knowing Him more in LOVE.
It’s from,
Ephesians 3:19b
…that you will able to KNOW that Love (Christ’s love). Then you can be filled with FULLNESS of God (NCV)
We need to FULL with God’s love which is Christ and be whole and content with that. After we are filled with, our cup (heart) will be FULL with EVERLASTING LOVE – the source of love. And because God’s love is everlasting, our cup must have to be overflowing!!! Now, from that overflowing of love we can share and give it to others!!!
I had a BIG, BIG problem with this love issue, cause my heart was so used to receives hatred, pain, rejection, mocking, and other bad stuffs. I seldom receives love, affirmation and positive comments. Turned out that my heart was FULL with BAD STUFFS.
Proverbs 4:23 said that we need to keep our heart with all vigilance, for from it FLOW the SPRINGS of LIFE (ESV).
So, i could say that my heart is the SOURCE of my life, and because i allowed bad stuffs came into my heart i can only PRODUCES bad stuff which are rejecting people, being critical, etc. An apple tree could only produces apples fruit, a mango tree could only produces mangos fruit. Same like me, my heart could only produces bad stuff cause i didn’t know the FULLNESS of God’s LOVE and i didn’t acknowledge His Love in my life!!!
Colossians 1:28c said,
To be mature is to be basic. Christ! No more, no less. (the message) And in Colossians 3:14b said “…wear LOVE. It’s your basic,..” (the message)
So, friends in order to get the FULLNESS of God we NEED to know God’s LOVE first, which Christ the PERFECT EXPRESSION of God’s love through the cross.
It’s so amazing how God gives me revelations to revelations, it’s like the best things ever!!!
I just wanna informed you that i got Rp 15.000.000,- (approx. AU$ 1,875) on 12th March 2009 from the Lord!!!! Someone just gave it away for me!!! Yeaaaaaaaaaah!!! PRAISE GOD!!! So AMAZING!!! The moment i least expected, blew my mind away!!! Also an update about my financial needs regarding to the school of worship that i’m about to do in 5th April 2009.
We’ll be going to Mexico city and Cape town for outreach. And since both destination is pretty far, we need a huge amount of money too for accommodation too. I’m gonna need approx. AU$ 6,500 and the due date is 10th June 2009.
I really TRUST GOD for this needs, and i BELIEVE that He will PROVIDES (as always) cause He’s the one who called me to do this, so He’s the one who will equip me with everything that i need. It would be SO WONDERFUL if you could PRAY for ME and just support me everyday through your prayer. Here are the things that you could pray for me:
- School fee AU$ 2,900 left (due on 5th April 2009)
- Outreach fee AU$ 6,500 (due on 10th June 2009)

Well, it’s been a blessing so far to have EACH ONE of you in my life for the last 6 months. There is EXTENDING 6 months ahead too, hopefully you will be able to keep stand together with me and i will pray also for all of you to know God in a deeper way everyday of your life.
Blessing and Love from Perth,
