You Will Go Over Not Under

On the same day, when evening had come, He said to them, “Let us cross over to the other side.”
Mark 4:35
You Will Go Over And Not Under!

Jesus was in a boat with His disciples and they were caught in a great windstorm. Water was coming into the boat and the disciples, fearing that they would drown, cried out to Jesus, “Teacher, do you not care that we are perishing?” (Mark 4:38).
The Lord arose immediately from His sleep and rebuked the storm—“Peace, be still!”—and there was a great calm. Then, He turned to His disciples and said, “Why are you so fearful? How is it that you have no faith?” (Mark 4:39–40).
Now, why do you think Jesus questioned His disciples about their absence of faith? I believe that it was because they didn’t believe what Jesus had said to them earlier: “Let us cross over to the other side.”
My friend, Jesus, through His finished work, has given you victory in all things. Even if you are facing giant waves of adversity today, His Word promises you that you will get over to the other side victoriously. And when Jesus tells you that you are going over to the other side with Him, you are going over! You will not go under! Whatever situation you are in now, put your trust in Jesus, who is always with you, and arrive safely on “the other side”—to your breakthrough!

Health Through His Redemptive Work

The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, and by His stripes we are healed.
Isaiah 53:5
Health Through His Redemptive Work
I encourage you to meditate on and visualize the redemptive work of Christ every day. In fact, it is especially when you are sick that you need to focus on the fact that Jesus was scourged for your healing. When you are experiencing disturbing or painful physical symptoms in your body, see Jesus taking all the stripes on His back for your healing. See His back being lacerated and shredded as payment for your wholeness, and every stripe will be healing to you.
Beloved, instead of meditating on the symptoms and how bad the condition is, meditate on what the Son of God has done for you. Say, “Thank You, Jesus. By Your stripes, I am healed.” All of heaven stands behind the work of the Son of God. And the Holy Spirit, who is the Spirit of truth inside you, will bear witness with the truth of God’s Word by giving life to your body. Hallelujah!

Born To Save You

Then the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people. For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.”
Luke 2:10–11
Born To Save You
Meditate on the first words of heaven to man at the beginning of the New Testament: Don’t be afraid.
What encouraging, hope-giving and empowering words of grace! And what were these precious words a prelude to? The proclamation that Jesus would come to be our Savior.
My friend, whatever you are facing today, hear heaven’s encouragement to you—“Do not be afraid.” Do not be fearful. Do not be discouraged. Why? Because Jesus is your Savior.
He came to be your Savior. He didn’t come to be your judge to condemn and punish you. He didn’t come as a lawgiver to give you more laws to fulfill. No, He came to be your SAVIOR. That’s what Jesus is and wants to be to you.
So what does a savior do? If you’re drowning, will a savior condemn you for having fallen into the water and laugh at you for not knowing how to swim? Will a savior throw you an instruction book on how to swim? Of course not! He will jump right in to save you, no questions asked!
Beloved, when it comes to saving you from whatever puts fear in your heart, Jesus is the best there is in the entire universe. He didn’t come just to save you from hell just so you can enter heaven when you pass from this earth. No, He wants to save you every day from anything and everything that you need saving from! See His mighty hand reaching out to you, powered by a heart that has no condemnation, but only love for you!

Ignore The Winds And Waves

But when he saw that the wind was boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink he cried out, saying, “Lord, save me!”
Matthew 14:30
Ignore The Winds And Waves
Peter got out of the boat and walked on water at the command of the Lord. But when he felt the boisterous winds, he panicked, started sinking and cried, “Lord, save me!”
Immediately, the Lord stretched out His hand and saved him.
Let me ask you this: If the winds weren’t boisterous that night, would Peter have been able to walk on water? Of course not! Peter’s feat had nothing to do with how strong the winds or waves were. It had everything to do with Jesus. As long as he fixed His eyes on Jesus, Peter was able to do what he saw the Lord doing.
In the same way, my friend, when the boisterous winds of painful symptoms or bad medical reports clamor for your attention, remember that receiving your healing has nothing to do with how bad they are. It has everything to do with how Christ has already paid the price for your healing and health. It has everything to do with how He is right now, above every disease that can plague your body. So keep your eyes on Jesus and walk in His strength, healing and life!
The same can be said about receiving provision from the Lord. Does it really depend on how well the economy is doing? So why pay attention to the bad reports and get all worried? Keep your eyes on Jesus and step into His abundant supply!
My friend, don’t let the stormy winds and waves of your challenges distract you. They have nothing to do with whether you walk victoriously over your circumstances or not. Just keep your eyes on Jesus—and receive your miracle!

Be Gloriously Transformed

But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord.
2 Corinthians 3:18
Be Gloriously Transformed
Good things happen to you when you look to Jesus and behold His glory. The woman who had a bleeding condition for 12 years received her healing when she looked to Jesus. Peter did the supernatural and walked on water as He looked to Jesus. Even blind Bartimaeus received his sight when he “looked” to Jesus by crying out to Him.
What does it mean to “behold Jesus” today?
I asked the Lord a similar question once and His answer to me was, “Emmaus road.” Immediately, I knew He was referring to the experience two of His disciples had when He spoke to them about things concerning Himself in the Scriptures while walking with them on the road to Emmaus. Their hearts burned within them as He opened the Scriptures to them, showing them how the Scriptures were talking about Him (Luke 24:27, 32). The experience so energized the initially depressed disciples that they were able to walk seven miles with Him to Emmaus and later seven miles back to Jerusalem!
My friend, the way you behold Jesus’ glory today is to see Him in the Scriptures. He is there in the stories, in the prophecies, in the parables, in the laws, in the rituals and even in the temple design. When you find Him, the Scriptures come alive. When you see Him, you see His glory. And as you behold His beauty, you are transformed from glory to glory!

Christmas Eve Special Live Performance



Everyone are welcome to Christmas Eve Special Live Performance with full year of Shining Favor. RLC, Jalan 221 PJ on 23 & 24 Dec 2013 from 8.30p.m.








Look To Jesus And Live

Then the Lord said to Moses, “Make a fiery serpent, and set it on a pole; and it shall be that everyone who is bitten, when he looks at it, shall live.”
Numbers 21:8
Look To Jesus And Live!

People have asked me what the value of seeing Jesus is. They say, “Pastor Prince, you talk about seeing Jesus all the time. What value is there in doing that? I’d rather you give me principles for success. It’s more practical.”
Well, the wonder of it is that when the Israelites in the Old Testament were bitten by snakes and were dying, those who looked to the Lordwere healed (Numbers 21:8–9). Actually, they looked to a bronze serpent on a pole, which typified our Lord Jesus on the cross, as He became a curse for us on that cross (Galatians 3:13). Isn’t it amazing that these people were healed just by looking? They simply looked to the Lord and they lived!
So I pray in Jesus’ name that you’ll have a hunger to see Jesus. Every time you hear a sermon or read the Bible, you want to see Jesus and behold His glory. Ask the Holy Spirit to open up the Scriptures to you so that you can encounter Jesus. And as you fix your eyes on Him, you will be transformed from glory to glory (2 Corinthians 3:18). You will find peace for your soul, strength for your body and clarity for your mind. Symptoms of death will give way to manifestations of His abundance and resurrection life!
