WE SAW ANOTHER ANGEL FEATHER TODAY!!! It was about 2 inches long! It's a long and skinny one! (I think I forgot to wrote in the last blog about the feather)
Today, Deanna, the preschool teacher at bethel, brought us to different places at her session. We went and met Jesus at different places, we were brought to the prophesying realm, went to heaven and got soaked in God's presence and Spirit. It was fun and not as hard as you'd think!! God is not complicated, ok? =)
God told me three times through different people today that He calls me, "Faithful". Around 6 people prayed for me for the children ministry at IMPACT and the summer camp. A lady got a vision for me, and she said, "I see you kneeling and were just covering your head with both of your arms because you were so overwhelmed and troubled by the huge cliff that's right in front of you. However, that cliff turned and it became Jesus' cloth. Then, He picked you right up from the ground." The other two ladies said, "When you say 'yes' to the Lord, no matter how lost you are, just got for it and He will got you covered." Amen Amen!!
Since Monday evening, my right feet has been hurting as if I've sprung it, when I don't remembering springing it. Oddly enough, when I got home, I found out that Amy has sprung her right feet a day before I felt the pain. However, today at the end of the conference they had a healing service. I went forward and a lady named Jama prayed for the feet. It was still hurting after the first praying, but after the second time, it was healed! Praise the Lord!! Hallelujah! Then I asked her to pray for me about the mandate that God wants to give me for my children ministry. She prayed and then she told me that she saw the story of "Peter Pipers". It's a story where this young man who has a magical flute, and whenever he plays the flute, children from every household would start to follow him. Jama said that I'm going to have this magical, special sound from God that would draw the children to God. They would not be able to resist that power from the sound. Now, Jama didn't know I play any instruments or sing, so it's totally God! After what she said to me, I told her that I actually lead worship at church and it's been a prayer on my heart that God would release a new dimension of worship in me, that when I sing or when I play instruments, the music I make will bring down His presence and draw people close to God. The Lord just answered my prayer through Jama! Wow, it's amazing!! I can't wait to find out what kind of sound that God is going to release in me that would draw the kids to Him. It's exciting stuffs! :)

Pastoring Kids in Revival - Day 1
LET ME KNOW IF YOU WANT ANYTHING FROM BETHEL!! :)
Last night I had a dream. It was the first dream where I killed people, and it was violent. I was with a guy, we were trying to kill an evil woman, who was a school principal, and her helper man. They were trying to kill us as well. During the fight, the woman hid and I saw the tip of her socks sticking out from underneath the bed, so I stabbed it with my sword. (I had a huge sword) However, it was only the sock and the woman was actually behind me. She tricked me! In the end I slew her with the sword, she was on the ground covering her heart with her hand, and I stabbed right through her hand and her heart. (I even remembered how it felt holding the sword and stabbing through her body) She died, and I just folded the body and kicked it aside. I was so exhausted so I laid right next to the body for a little rest. The guy who was with me woke up. He went unconscious during the fight, and I put a bandage on his head where he got injured. He saw the dead body and felt the bandage on his head. We had a glance of affection towards each others and the dream ended.
Crystal, the girl who also lives here temporarily, interpreted the dream for me in the morning. She said, God sometimes play with words. The principal means the evil principalities. The sock trick she put would be the deceptions that the enemies always put up before men to lead them into the wrong places. And the defeat of the evil principal would be God promising my victory over the principalities of the enemy through Him. Mona, the mama of the house, said that the guy who was helping me might symbolize Jesus. Helping me and us having affection towards each others at the end of the battle. (This part wasn't that clearly interpreted, need to pray about it)
It makes so much sense to me after the interpretation. At first I didn't even think that much, I just thought that was a very bloody and violent dream. Yet, again, the kingdom is to be taken by force violently. During the first session of today's messages, Mike Seth, talked about Hebrew 12:26, "At that time his voice shook the earth, but now he has promised, "Once more I will shake not only the earth but also the heavens." Mike said the heavens it talks about here is the 2nd heaven, which is where the spiritual warfares take place. God is going to fight the principalities of satan's kingdom!! Later in the evening, Lenny LaGuardia, talked about the importance of having our own sword in slaying the evilness. He said it's important we have our own sword and not other people's sword.
Me and Alice went to the prayer room before the evening session. I was praying for the W.R. kids, UCR, myself, IMPACT... etc, when the Spirit of the Lord came upon me and I could not stop weeping. My arms were shaking uncontrollably, and my tears were streaming down my face uncontrollably as well. I didn't understand where these tears came from. I think it has something to do with God's love, not quite clear on that. However, I went and prayed for a Korean lady, she wept as I prayed. I'm glad I obeyed the Lord and went up to her. Mike Seth said that the love language of heaven is "obedience". It really hit me, you can go read my previous post about my "disobedience" if you want to know why. Another thing that really moved my heart was what Deborah Reed talked about. Her session was to release the power of prophetic to children. She said, "When prophetic words come down to church, true love from the Lord would be brought out among sisters and brothers. That is because when we started to see people from the Lord's perspective, an honor would rise up from within us, which would cause the people who we are prophesying over to have an affection towards us." Man I was just weeping continuously throughout the first half of her workshop. The love of God was so thick in the room, it was so good.
Ps. There's too much to type if I were to share everything. Will share on Sunday more! :)
Pss. Our host family, the Simmons, were so nice! Their house was so nice too! (Even got a huge deck and a small garden and a huge pool.) We will bring back tremendous pictures we got from them. Pictures that captures glimpse of God. Totally exciting stuffs!!

Taiwan belongs to You, God!!
So many bugs!! They are everywhere! >< God never told us to LOVE bugs, so I can totally hate these little creatures. Humph! However, this also means that Summer is near!!! Yay!! :D
Awesome news... 馬英九won the presidential election yesterday!!! Woohoo~ Hallelujah! Alice and I started to pray for the result of this election and the revival of Taiwan right after we got home from MGM. It was crazy, we were praying for hours till 2, 3am! I believe God stirred up our hearts to pray hard for this island, because we really couldn't sleep and couldn't stop praying. More than the reason of being a Taiwanese, I think God is showing us His desire for this island to be returned to His embrace. I've been asking God to give us a Christian president who He can really use to impact Taiwan and bring revival to that land. Surely, He has answered the first part of the prayer, a Christian president, YAY GOD! I believe He will answer the second part soon enough if we would really cry out for it. Just like what Johnny shared today at the Campus Ministry Meeting, "You could get to where God wants you to be so much faster when you cry out with such hunger and desperation." God has showed us many visions and revelation during our prayers for Taiwan.
Here's a list of the visions I got...
1) Glorious Angel spreading out its wings with such glorious gleam all around it and behind it.
2) Skull - Spirit of death.
3) A huge cross pressed unto Taiwan, and made a huge mark.
4) Iron gates - Very hard-to-break strongholds.
5) Army of the Lord fighting against the army of satan.
6) A perfect heart, then you see the heart getting a lot of deep deep cuts.
7) A huge needle falling from heaven and burst through the huge bubble of LIES.
8) A heart that's covered with yucky black stuffs, so it cannot feel God, His love, and His Spirit.
9) Lots of the ghosts you see in Asian movies.
It was crazy! The Lord just kept on pouring out His heart and giving us visions and revelations for this island! Keep praying for our homeland! Though we don't live there anymore, we got lots of family members who are still over there, suffering! For their sake, pray for Taiwan! Pray for this president! Especially right now, pray for protection over him. (Some rumors are saying people are planning to assassinate him.) Lord have mercy on this land, I plead Jesus' blood over the sin of this island and bring revival to Taiwan!
Ps. 4/12 Water Ranger outing!! Knott's Berry Farm! Who would like to come and... um... drive and help watching over the kids? ^^||| I would really really appreciate it if you can help me out! Thank you so much!! Or any other suggestions for locations are welcome! Thanks guys!

Holy Spirit - Best Song Writer of All!
Yesterday I wrote another song, this time it's a FULL song! Wow. I finished it in 2 hours too! This is the first time that I actually finished one song with music AND lyrics! It's amazing. Before I started composing I prayed a short prayer that God would increase my music talent and let my heart be in one accord with His heart, and my spirit with the Holy Spirit. Teach me how to write songs and make music that would bring down His presence, Holy Spirit! Then I started playing the piano, and just playing with the keys and stuffs when a rhythm started flowing out from my fingers. Pretty soon, I got the background music for the entire song. Then God showed me Psalm 34, which is where my lyrics come from. It fit greatly with the music, and then VWOLA~ a song is done! :) I recorded with just the voice, because I can't play and sing at the same time on the piano. Grrrr.... Need Annie/John/Andy to help me arrange it a bit. Please~ guys~!! =)
When I was worshiping in the morning, I knelt down and I could feel my ears were really really hot. I'm going to write another song today, Lord I pray that You have already opened my ears and anointed me with the spirit of David, the heart of a true worshiper. Empower me to write yet another powerful song, Lord. Thank You God, You are AWESOME in Your deeds and GREAT in Your power! Hallelujah! Praise You God!!!! Blessed be Your Name for Your Name is worthy to be praised! Amen Amen!!

City Invasion + First Day
Just wanna share something funny that happened during City Invasion on Tuesday afternoon. Me and Tina went to the Ontario Mills, with no purpose but to relax a bit to start with. After walking around aimlessly for 2 or 3 stores, we decided to pray for people. Because that question that Jack/Annie kept on asking us is stuck in my head forever now, "What's your purpose?" Hehe. We started to pray and see if God wants us to pray for a particular group of people, and we both felt we should go pray for pregnant women. It's amazing how many pregnant women we encountered at the mall. I've never seen so many of them. It's as if all the pregnant women all planned to shop at that mall that day. lol. We were taking turns in praying for these moms, while one person is praying, the other one is being the intercessor. Ok, so then Tina spotted a woman paying at the cashier at a store, and she was like, "Hey there is one! Go pray for her!" So we waited for her to come out of the store, then I approached her and told her what we're doing and without giving her a chance to explain anything, I kept on going in telling her how much God wants to bless her and the baby in her stomach and such... when she cut me off... "I'm not pregnant...." *0* Oops!! That was such an embarrassing moment, my goodness!! Thank God the woman and her entire family are Christian, so then we get to bless the entire family. She has 6 kids! Wow, can you imagine that!! Anyway, that was Tina's first attempt of City Invasion, c'mon give her some hands! She was so brave and I didn't even know she didn't have any trainings. Couldn't even tell she was inexperienced. Tina you are one prayer warrior of God! Don't lose heart, keep running towards Him! And He will show you so much more! :)
Today... first day of the 20 Days New Song Project. Worshiped God in the morning with shouts of joy! (Played Hillson London DVD) For some reason I wasn't able to worship as freely as I could at the beginning, even though no one was home and I knew the neighbors' kids were all at school at that time. I guess it's because I had all the doors and windows opened, too much open space. That still is NOT an excuse!!! Anyway, later on I was just completely focusing on God and nothing else. Dancing and singing, shouting and praising the King! Wept as I sang with all my heart and soul for my God, asking Him to completely empty me and work in me and through me. The Holy Spirit gently pushed me down. There I was laying on my carpet, weeping. "I won't relent until You have it all." Amen, Lord. That is my cry.
Encouraged Crystal with this verse and she said "Thank you for being such a huge encouragement!!" Praise the Lord! I was just thinking about her in the morning when she called at noon. Prayed for her and all. She is coming to the encounter retreat, o yay! :)
I will write a song per day, using the verse of that day. Recorded today's little song. Pretty hillsong style, lol. Lord, give me the anointing to compose, and the ears of heaven musicians! Hosanna!!
Ps. Guess what? My mom is reading the Bible every day now, using the study guide Alice gave us at LTC!! She reads the Bible by herself!! Isn't that amazing? She has already crossed through about 7 or 8 boxes, and you know how much chapters are in one box... definitely more than 3. Amazing Lord, keep speaking to my mom, showing Yourself to her, moving her heart, and working in her. Hallelujah! Lord, let my entire family be drenched in Your rain! Amen!
Pss. IHOP sent me a book, "The Rewards of Fasting", don't know if you guys got it or not. It came at the perfect timing. This exactly what I needed right now, thank you God for this special and perfect gift! <3
