***And you shall know the truth. And the truth will set you free!!!***

Over the wkend, I had a wonderful time at Singapore Indoor Stadium (SIS) for Festival of Praise (FOP). We had world leading christian band Delirious? and Don Moen to lead us in a time of praise and worship. It really brings down the presence of God daily from Fri - Sun. I really feel the songs like jumping into me and really speaks revelation to me as the words sink into my heart and run in my mind, it is as though God is revealing things to me. As we enter the presence of God thru thanksgiving, praise and worship, it was awesome. We also had a powerful speaker Rev. Phil Pringle who share the Word of God for the three night as each night leads us into higher glory and grace of God pour down from heaven as the word is being preached. I was so blessed for the three night. God is really Good all the times, and All the times, God is good.

The first night sermon
Rev Phil shared on walking in the Spirit.
Acts 15:16(Amp)
After this I will come back, and will rebuild the house of David, which has fallen; I will rebuild its [very] ruins, and I will set it up again,
In the old testament, God is often view as some one who is fearing in nature to human, as no one can come to Him except the High priest every year once. It is a nervous situation to enter the Holy of holies, within the veil.
However, God make a special request tt He wan to restore David's tabernacle. What is so different abt David's tabernacle compare to other tabernacles in the old testament?
When Moses started the First tabernacle of God, God is kept in this box and hidden in the Holy of Holies on the ark within the veil. Yet when King David restores the tabernacle, it is place with the veil open and oversees the whole of Israel where daily there is thanksgiving, praise and worship offer to the Lord. It is full of life and enjoy. As King David is a person who likes to worship and draw near to God, he is a happy man, who writes poet, songs to the Lord. There is a complete contrast where the fear of the Lord turns into love and longing for the presence of God. David illustrates that fear of the Lord may not lead to a distant relationship with God, in fact it can be translated with adoration of God and longing for His presence with us.
Like the song "I adore you, I adore you, I adore you my Lord". One things also show in the Bible is that, God confess that He meet with David with rejoices. God enjoys David's accompany so much that He lets Jesus become the descendant of David. Thus i is not juz religious thing that God visit us, but it is the inward attitude that God is looking for, a place of thanksgiving, praise and worship that He is able to build a strong relationship with us, juz as Jesus with His disciples.

Notice over here. God is seeking for an open heart where our soul's veil is open for Him to enter, and that our social veil is also open to the world where He can use us to shine His glory and presence to the world. So now our mandate is to open the veil and reveals who God really is and not hide Him in the veil.

The door of God will only open when we start to give thanks to Him! So stop grumble abt ur problems, instead start to give thanks. Read the Book of Psalms whenever u r sad, u will see how David even in the most distress situation still choose to give thanks to God. It is den that God deliver him thru his situation and guide him. Know that worship complete us and give us the experience to include God in our life, bring in the presence of God.

Acts 3:19 talks about the refreshing of God's presence in out life is an important things for us to continue in Him. It is not the system of the world that carry the presence of Gd into our life, not the religious things, not the music, not the sermon, but it is really people who carry the presence of God. Rmb how King David carry the ark of God using bull cart during his first try to bring it back to Israel, as compare it is carry on men's shoulders the second time. [For more information, u can read 1Chronicles 13-15] The touch of God should be living in us, we shld be the one carry the presence of God, it is not worship, it is not the music, it is not the pastors, but US.

We shld carry the anointing of God, the fresh oil from God, to be hunger to be renewed. God was so touched at King David's attitude toward Him, that He praise King David abt it. The Book of Psalms show how King David will always withdraw away from all his works to engage God, cuz he nva forgets the First anointing of oil being pour on him by the prophet Samuel, where God's presence fall on him and reveals his destiny. Thus, we need to have the pouring of oil in our life daily. Cuz when we learn to worship God daily, our strength and power will be renew with God's presence.

Let us have King David's attitude of worship, bringing down the presence of God.
*Pls look forward for the next few days post as I will reveal more on the sermon shared and revelations from God.
