as of last Sunday, we had an excess of $400 000 in our building fund kitty. More are still pouring in. WOnderful and encouraging testimony of the Lord's faithfulness. I also learnt that Covenant @ Woodlands is the first religious establishment in Admiralty. That's pretty cool because that means a pretty large paddy field waiting to be harvested.
I guess what keeps the pastoral team and church board trust that Senior Pastor Ed's leading is from God is because they believe that what Pastor hears is truly from the Lord, and he seeks no credit for that, He heard from the Lord, he confirms it with the Lord and then He chiongs all the way for the Lord, and the Lord has proven faithful in many circumstances.
For example, Pastor Ed was sharing about the divine appt with one of his friends last week. He finished an assignment 2 hours ahead of time and asked the Lord what to do with the 2 hours before his next appointment. He heard the Lord ask him to call this particular guy and meet up with him. Pastor Ed was pretty hesitant because to ask someone out for lunch at 11a.m. was not very sincere. SO he waited and prayed for the Lord's confirmation. 5 minutes after, Pastor received an sms from THAT friend, asking if he was free to talk. PAstor immediately called him and met up with him for lunch. That friend just needed to hear a message from God, that God loves him, and PAstor Ed's friend said he knows that, because God sent PAstor Ed to him. Amazing.
I pray for divine appointments too! And the obedience and faith to follow and act on the leading!
