What Do You Know?

Just came back from WDYK? camp from 9-12 Jun. I would say yes, it was fruitful!

Probably God's favour was upon this camp and all that praying and fasting by the camp com had been heard.



With no expectations for the camp except to do my job proper as the worship leader, I headed for Changi Resort with the mindset of helping out. I ended up being the leader of "Just Follow Marshall". It was a good experience with Joel coming in and out as a leader too. Thanks going out to Marshall, Luke, Yong Jian, Eugene, Raina, Dione and Sherry for making this camp so wonderful together. They were a sporting bunch who were willing to follow instructions given to them quickly.



As for the program for the camp, Thank God it was truly smooth. Too wonderful. With God's blessings, I tell you NOTHING stands in God's way!



Rachel Chan sprained her left ankle on day 2 while playing mass games. She had stepped into a pothole and somehow sprained it. She didn't do anything about it the whole day and was only till after the session that we found out about it. I was looking at it and I've seen how sprains looked like, she had her first sprain so naturally it was very painful for her. That night, I just prayed for her.



U. Andrew and Pastor Irene were the speakers for this camp. Uncle Andrew spoke on "Holy Spirit" while Pastor Irene brought us to the topic of God the Father and God the Son. Truly it was a simple yet knowledgeable session throughout. Highlight would probably be praying with Uncle Andrew and Aunt Shanti, Uncle Anthony and Aunt Erika. We prayed for the youth campers and helpers first who came forward. Some of the campers even got to pray in tongues for the first time. How amazing is He who can do all things.



Then after 2 hours of praying, the leaders were prayed for. Prophecies were released and Aunt Shanti gave us words from God and regards to our areas of gifts. Mine was the area of writing new songs and healing through the songs. If I got that right. It was an amazing, absolutely fabulous time praying together in the spirit! And after praying, Aunt Erika came up to me and reminded me: "Marcus, your prophecy last year has been confirmed again!" while giving me that you-know-what-you-need-to-do look.



Pastor Irene shared her testimonies and stories with God which were really encouraging. It reminded me that obedience to God should not be a no-no or later kind of attitude but YES Lord I will go for you! Here I am send me! Indeed this camp had been a firm grounding in God's word once again.. Another spiritual high, now to retain that fire that has been set alight!



A million faces I see

A thousand friendships I hold

A hundred souls I touched

Yet only few I shared



Salvation belongs to the Lord

Whom shall I fear

To share His good news



Hallelujah to the King

Hallelujah to the King forever.



Just beautiful. God the everlasting yet neverchanging Creator.
