O Praise Him

I hope facebook doesn't cut out the video I put in my blog, if a video is not showing as usual go to jasonkid87.blogspot.com to watch it.

Wow! This week has been fairly tough for me actually, been a bit dry, started being lazy and all that jazz. But throughout all the tough times, there's only one thing that matters... your connection with God. It was so hard for me to press in. I didn't 'feel' like lifting my hands, I didn't 'feel' to open my mouth or to even open my bible. oh boy, was I wrong, like Jonah I was trying to run away, somehow someway God just brought me into this verse

Psalm 146:1-2 "Praise the Lord, O my soul! While I live I will praise the Lord, I will sing praises to my God while I have my being!"

I love how David says 'WHILE I LIVE' I will praise the Lord.. Wow! its a lifestyle, its your everything, as long as we live, we are commited to Praise His name! To be honest, one flaw I have is that during my own devotional time I would tend to skip 'Praise' and go straight to 'worship' .I'm like yeaaa come on straight into the holy of holies! Boy was I wrong... I have underestimated the power of Praise, Phil Pringle said "Praise opens gates into the presence of God' When you choose to Praise God you're singing on how good God is, what He has done and just that choice of choosing to praise God with your soul when you dont feel like it will bring about freedom, and encourages your spirit to rise up!

The last thing you want is letting the devil silence your mouth and keep you from singing. Don't ever let the devil steal your song, its your key to victory! Whatever is causing you to hang your head down in defeat has been overcomed by the Presence of God in you! so let's start Praising Him! =)

David Crowder Band- O Praise Him

Sunday Reflections (last week and two weeks ago)

So I failed to update my blog on time and I have 30 min to spare before I leave to work so I thought hey might as well update it

Do you remember the post from 2 weeks ago on Sunday night reflections about Ps Lai Ling giving a word about me playing the guitar with anointing? well on that same week with that reflections, little did I know Ps Lai Ling came and preached at our church again and again because she moved in the prophetic she was prophesying into different ones and funny enough I got a word from her again and it was about my worship, and how the Presence of God in me is going to flow out to other people and so on. I can't remember the whole thing, (anyone has the recording or took notes?) but I was really touched on how God will be using me and confirming what he spoke to me ages ago and reinforcing the promises he Has for me. God is so so good.

On another note GSL (generation salt and light) started last week and praise God it has been going well. I'm very encouraged for the different ones who came despite their fear, exams and lack of ability but believing that what they've sowed in, they will definately reap in the near future. I want to believe for miracles, people being set free and souls saved during our time in GSL

Some thoughts from 31st and 6th Sunday

• Be a 3D disciple- Dedication, Discipline and Dilligence (it wasn't called 3d but seems like a good title tho :P)
• Fight for what is HIS
• DO NOT DOUBT God's ability to bring forth fruits
• Remember Jesus discipled 12 disciples that discipled the world.... (you can be one that will raise the next Billy Graham)
• Im excited about the new direction we're going in with the new series on gift-based ministry, everyone is gonna be equipped!
• We've heard it many times but here goes..... WE HAVE A RISEN (NOT DEAD) Savior!!
• IF Jesus was dead we might as well eat, drink, be merry and die lol
• Remember what you do IS NOT a dead sacrifice, even though you do not see it.
• Ps Lance: 'When we lose sight of how great the gospel msg is, we will often lose motivation to live it out'

Something I learnt this week was that God's love is furious and strong. No matter how far I've backslidden or how I feel of running away from God, God keeps calling me back, reaching out to me, a father's heart longing to see His son/daughter come back. How, o how much He loves Me(and you) , it brought me back to the song by Misty Edwards where the verse goes 'You won't relent until you have it all"

I am my beloved's and his desire is toward me.-
Song of Solomon 7:10

Let all....

Sunday night reflections

Woah, I haven't done this in awhile and I was planning to do this every Sunday. So here's my ill attempt to get this going again and hopefully get the ball rollin' for me.

I remember couple of months back when Ps Lai Ling came down to GC to preach and I was on the worship team, I got so discouraged and frustrated on my own ability to play that, during worship, I actually said 'what am I doing here playing? Might as well not play at all, I sound terrible with my playing and all other nonsense thoughts of just giving up'

For those who were there remembered before the sermon started Ps Lai Ling started to prophecy into different ones. Here I am sitting down, thinking of giving up playing when Ps Lai Ling pointed to me and told me that God is going to anoint me in my playing where a New Sound will come out, something along those lines but all I remember was a new sound from the guitar playing.

Guess what?
After the service many people commented that they felt the worship was different, as if there was a new sound. They said the guitar sounded different and there was anointing in the voice and musical instruments. I've been using almost the same guitar effects for worship and I have never ever change the settings but people said it sounded very good, was different and some were even thinking there was a violin playing lol. As a team we knew our playing and music was dull and dry during practice but after 15min of just worshipping God, I think an angel just pop down and fine tuned the PA system and our instruments to make it sound good, Seriously! :)
Then it pop into my head yesterday on what Ps Lai Ling prophecy that there will be the anointing to play a new sound that will come out thru my guitar playing. Praise God!

I want to believe that God will use me to play notes from heaven,
prophetically....

Other reflections

• As usual Puji really imparted his heart to us and God used him powerfully to challenge and convict me
• GSL WILL start again (watch out for this space!)
• Puji doesn't just preach, his walking it out in his own life, I love people who are being honest and real, they are such an inspiration!
• Sometimes we don't realize the significance of God's word
• Do I want to live normal life or a Supernatural life
• The HARVEST is not the problem, its plentiful! (Matt9:37) The workers are!
• And Im one of the lazy workers that got his butt whopped big time. Thx for waking me up God! :)
• I've not been good in diciplining myself to do the things I need to do e.g. Praying and during DMM Manging our Time+ Praying was taught, How awesome is that?
• got me thinking, WHAT IF I had prayed more, WHAT IF I had taken that time just to intercede..... this wouldn't have happened, this Could happen
• yea right.. no what if.. whats done is done. I need to get my prayer life to be consistent again
• its time for the unchurched to be churched!!

quick update

So I haven’t update my blog for quite awhile now. Haven’t been doing much with blogging, msn-ing, or even facebooking. Guess its a good sign.

Went on a camping trip last weekend down to Boonah and sleeping outdoors under the tarb at 0 degrees? Sick! Woke up with ice on our face..... (kiddin) Rock climbing was a good experience and I managed to conquered the rocky mountain, with my flabby tummy which was pretty cool. Didn’t get to do much waterskiing but its all cool. Speaking of flabby tummy, I think I need to start doing jogging, and karate again just to get back some muscles and tone my body up, its seriously getting so obvious that people can notice the beer belly I’m having X(

Last week was the first time in a long time where I got so frustrated and depressed by playing sports, the last time was Basketball back home 5 years ago and now I felt it again playing tennis last week, had this stupid feeling that I felt like quitting the sport because I’ve been the same and not improving at all whereas everyone is getting better. There you go again Jason thinking too much and comparing yourself to others. I still don’t have the mood to play tennis yet maybe I should go back to basketball which I haven’t touch for a month..... or maybe not do sports at all ........ far out! XD

oh... and had my first Long Island Ice tea last night... sweeett!! Happy Birthday Renee =)

got to love twitting

Psalm 100

Psalm 100
Shout for joy to the LORD, all the earth. Worship the LORD with gladness; come before him with joyful songs. Know that the LORD is God. It is he who made us, and we are his; we are his people, the sheep of his pasture. Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name. For the LORD is good and his love endures forever; his faithfulness continues through all generations.

wow wow wow, never before that Psalm 100 has spoken to me in such a real and tangible way. Tired from work and catching up I came back home so dry and weary, but I told myself, I need to spend time with God. It was so hard at first.... my heart was weary, Im almost empty but I told myself to not let my heart be weary in seeking God. crying out ' Pour out more, pour out more, im not satisfied' and true enough after awhile I fought and got my connection. ---> fast forward to free worship... I find myself dancing in my room like a crazy man, up and down, and the joy of the Lord filled me, and God told me that I was dancing in His courts. THING IS for the past 4 days at work has been busy I've been running up and down working and has not let my leg rest properly and because of that one of my muscles was hurting, it was the soft muscles tat allows your knee to bend, whatever you call it. anyway I was dancing and dancing forgetting about the pain and after the worship session I realized my muscle pain was gone and healed!!! =D

When we're dry and broken we come to God, In His presence there will be healing for the broken and thirsty. The outcome I believe should be Joy, the supernatural Joy of God when we enter His presence. Catch the revelation of His goodness and love in your worship times, God's INVITING you to enter Joyfully into God's presence :)

"YOU are His"

Wilson K Surge

Recently I've been doing my all my shopping on Ebay just cos you can get super cheap good deals on product that are new or as new. In the beginning of the year I got a new phone and replaced my trusty LG viewty with the awesome HTC Touch HD. This is my first windows phone and I can see why after reading the reviews and after using it for 2 months they say this is one phone that can go on par with the iPhone. It can play SNES games, super cool weather function, excellent battery life, and I love the GPS software that you install with it. oh I forgot to mention Mobile Office 2010? Mmmm sorry theres too many people using the iPhone and I know its a good phone but I don't like following the crowd........... annnndddd.... all the iPhone fanboys says 'Boooo'
But the main reason why I'm updating this post was to offically announced I've finally started to play Tennis again after a long 7 years of absence. Woah.. I made it sound as if I'm pro and im making a comeback tour XD Reason why I stopped playing was back in high school, 2 weeks after I pickup tennis I got tennis elbow and that killed my career in basketball which in time I developed much hate for Tennis. kidding. Fear is the right word. Fear that I would injure my elbow again because the first injury took me 3 months+ to heal.

Anyway after finishing watching Prince of Tennis and how Nadal has been popping up in my dream asking me to pickup tennis again I finally mustered the courage to pick up the racket and start playing again.... I got hooked, poisoned, and now everyday I have the urge to play tennis... not that Im good but its so much fun and im in the learning stage so its always fun to learn new things :)

So I got to ebay and got myself a racquet. A brand new genuine sexy sleek Wilson K surge rackquet. The original price is about 280+ and I got it for only $130 which is Strung with Gosen OG Sheep Micro 17 at 59lbs. Comes with a K Factor case with strap, Wilson Pro Overgrip fitted to the grip, head protection tape fitted to the head and a Wilson vibration dampener. Pretty cheap and its a darn good racquet except....... I still suck in Tennis. Actually im ok.... or better than ok.... better yet.. I'll see you in court ;)

Thoughts

There are so many thoughts running in my head on.....

-The direction of where the Church will be going
-The direction where Gen418 is going
-Whats gonna happen when some of the key people leaves, or will they be staying?
-And if the key people leaves, there's gonna be a huge hole to fill, who is rising up?
-There are some stuffs that is out of our control and we need the Holy Spirit to convict and change.
-Priorities, Balance... Time....
-How much I still have yet to learn, grow and mature.
-The health of the church.
-Whatever happened to us just 'doing life together?'
-We need more locals... especially Aussies.
-My heart yearns to see a Church thats passionate about God, yet being able to love life, love people and having that atmosphere of Faith and purity.

Sorry.... its just me babbling on a fine Friday morning :)

Shout Unto God

Overwhelmed

These past few days has been a rocky road for me, there's no landslide yet but I can feel it coming, my heart is overwhelmed and starting to feel discouraged (abit). My heart cries out and wonders what is happening? A new burden has risen, to see Men of God to rise up. Not a title of being a 'Man of God' but living that lifestyle where people can look up and say 'wow, his a role-model who inspires me, and I want to be like him' It's been too long now for the Men in church to be sleeping and not live by the calling God has for them. To be created for their original purpose which is to lead n' set a good example. To live the Prov 31:23 life where the women in the kingdom are looking for.

It even hit me when a brother is going through something and I don't even know what to say or what to do for him as I'm not so close, but my heart does feel for him to come back to Papa God. It really saddens me to see people not getting along with one another because of differences, it saddens me to see men liking to keep things for themselves thinking 'its all gonna be ok' but in reality there's a lion in the cage in their heart waiting to be unleashed. Its hard for us men to be transparent not just to our friends but even God??? really? What is happening?? (Don't get me wrong I was like that, a tough nut crack but God 'cracked' me) Its time to get out of the shell.

I'm not and expert at this but the burden for them has becoming stronger every day, and I know I have to make a stand and do something. I was also reminded about a vision someone had for me that they saw me Leading a group of men.... O'Lord help me, I need your strength and wisdom.

please send revival to our hearts,

please raise up a Generation of Men Like David who is after your heart

please raise up a Generation of Men Like Gideon who will be warriors

please raise up a Generation of Men Like Joseph who runs away from temptation and desires purity

please raise up a Generation of Men Like Daniel who have that culture of honor

please raise up a Joshua Generation that is able to lead the people.

More importantly one that models the Character of Jesus and shines forth His Glory.

I pray against the enemy that is putting the men to sleep

break the ego, break the pride, break the insecurities, break our heart

I pray that we will not be silent, its time to get out of our shell....

Give us courage, awaken our heart

Unite us that we may transform the world

A shift in the atmosphere is happening, there is an awakening...
Hearts are stirred and Hope and Freedom will released.....

The more I seek

Recently I stumbled unto this song and fell in love with it right away. I know for guys sometimes its hard to express their love to God with lovey dovey words and actions. Most Men like to look 'tough' get into the spiritual warfare, fighting the demons and these kinda stuffs but if there's one thing we can learn from the women in this generation is to just learn and sit beside the feet of Jesus and just love him, and being in His presence. Just like Mary who is a worhipper that seeks to be with Jesus rather than being 'busy' serving.

Do we often express our love to God these days? Or His love for you? We can get busy with focusing on mountains, problems, promises. I love what John Mark Mcmillan wrote on his song 'How He loves us' I don’t have time to maintain these regrets, When I think about, the way ...He loves us,

I know its weird but I just find myself laying on Jesus's lap as I sing this love song to Him and my heartcry was what is written in the lyrics of the song. Guys.. its ok to express your love to God and even through this lyrics.... its what makes Guys Beautiful, just to love Jesus and expressing your love to Him. Guys can be strong, wild, tough and yet beautiful at the same time you know? :)

So this is the song I found and thought you all might like. Be blessed :)

Trust God for who He Is

Yay finally got my internet, we just got our ADSL2+ yesterday.... so the saga of moving houses, buying new furnitures and clothes are all done. yay! Now I'll be able to update this blog and might even be thinking of changing the skin hehe.

if there's one thing I learnt through all this is that sometimes we suffer, face trials,hardships.... we pray for an outcome, we pray for God to do this and that. All these are good but there are times we can get sidetrack and focus on the outcome rather than the person. We should remember to trust God for WHO HE IS and not only What He does. consider not the situation but How much He loves us and for God to show us His character through all this, then he will reveal His greater purpose.

Trusting God for who He says He is will bring about the destiny he has for you and not force things to happen before its time.

"Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth? Tell me if you know so much

Who determined its dimensions and stretched out the surveying line?

What supports its foundations, and who laid its cornerstone

as the morning stars sang together and all the angels shouted for joy?"

Job 38:4-7

hiatus......

Yes, this blog will be on hiatus indefinately till I get my internet. It's amazing how priorities in your life changes when the internet is not there. Sounds s2pid but Two major things I noticed in the past 2 weeks without having the internet. Its amazing how clearly you can hear God more clearly without the internet =P

1.) I started dedicating to playing and practicing on my guitar more after more than 2 months of absence.
2.) I got time to reflect on my Spiritual, emotional and phyical health.

Spiritual

• I find myself at times seeking God's hand rather than His face......and........
  Learnt to trust and seek God for WHO HE IS not what He can do!
• I need to learn to grow in carrying in the presence of God, I am dreaming of this and so encouraged by testimonies from Charles Finny and even Peter when his Shadow just healed the sick.. WOW!
• Had a breakthrough in my life moving in the spirit more after that 20day fast.

Physical

• Need to set aside a time to start interceding again, havent been doing that since I've moved house
• Started playing basketball again (finally) and.... after a long 6 years I've picked up tennis again.
• I'm starting to look old and skinny. I was all skin and bones during the 20day fast and injured my shoulder+spine when I was playin the guitar in Church. (didnt know guitar was so heavy!) Need to start taking care of my skin properly, its getting wrinkly XD
• I'm adding veggies in my meal, don't worry guys!!!

Emotional

• Having imaginary arguments with people in my mind over stuffs people said to me or things they said made me go crazy
• I had issue with Pride, thinking TOO much of myself which affected my self-esteem. I should think of myself less but not think less of myself. Thank God, God's been speaking to be bout servanthood and humility (alot!!)
• Want to learn to speak life to people, encourage them and lift them up.... more

That's just a couple of stuffs that I was reflecting on anyway =) See you till I get my internet !

Oh no...

moved out!

Finally moved out, got a new place which is heaps better than the other house, had a couple of dramas here and there , some people weren't very helpful, and lets just say it was very stressful. I'm glad and happy that we moved in to the house we got, it was really a miracle how we got it within 24 hours with only 2 person applying for a 4 bedroom house. Some problems came up during the moving process.... wasn't to serious but I'm hoping God will do something that I don't deserve. With all the crap that has been going on while moving, I never thought I'll say this but I actually was looking forward and actually enjoyed my work... guess its just getting away from everything and just talking to my awesome colleagues and the friendly guests really helped alot.

anyhoooo, its a brand new place, with a brand new start and I got the smallest room in the house but its looking very sexaayyy I must say ;)

Don't have the internet yet, so won't be updating much this week.

Eph 3:20 Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us

Sunday Night Reflections, 31-1-10

Got this idea from Perry Noble and will be trying to do this regulary every Sunday. Its good to do this and just remember and reflect on the day :)

• Had one amazing gem gave his life for Christ today, yay!! one soul saved!!
• Have learnt to take risks and just go for it, thank God if you missed the opportunity God will send someone else for He holds all things together.
• Dreaming of more souls saved from treasure hunting and friendship evax
• Antitode for Conceited is Humility
• Learnt that brokeness is the key to success as you go for God, you go for Gold and God hears our cry.
• have taken the step to be more transparent and real, and not pretend "I've got it all together"
• We get spiritual amnesia forgeting God's grace
• Promotion comes from God
• Best revelation? From the Bible
• I want God to break me to make me who He wants me to be
• I've learnt to not keep words to myself and just obey His voice and give it out.
• PACKING AND CLEANING THE HOUSE IS A PAIN!!!
• Carried 60+ bags at work today alone + furnitures from house? Ouch.
• God's doing a work in my heart on humility, always checking my heart
• It's end of January and when people comes back in February they'll be wondering if they were in the same church as few months ago ;)
• Heck ya!! great things are happening in Hope Gold Coast and there are more to come, never park on your success, move on for more!!

resurrected dream

Prayer meeting between me, Jesus, God and the Holy Spirit was so awesome today hahaha. As I was praying and visioning what God has for me, God reminded me about a dream I had before.....seeing Japan be won for Christ. I then said ok " I'll pray for missionaries to go in, church planters, etc. but then God was challenging me... telling me "that was all good but those aren't big enough" Immediately I knew what He meant and I couldn't pray , I was so afraid of praying 'that' particular prayer... was so afraid of being called to do what I will be praying for. In my heart I want to see it come to pass, Its a God-size dream, Its a dream thats in my heart but I wasn't willing to pay the price for it because I was looking at my own limited human limitations.

for a short moment.. I paused and then was reminded of the teachings from Jesus Culture, reminded of Revival, reminded that im not a failure, being like Caleb going 'give me that mountain' ,then supernatural courage came in and I started praying for revival, praying for God to use me, and literally I knew God was asking "are you willing to go?" and I responded just like Isaiah did "Here I am Send me, use me, mould me, break me, to be a vessel to bring revival to the nations" (oh man, what am I getting myself into XD )and man this is huge but I want to see Japan be turned into a Christian Nation.... crazy, I know.... Impossible... with man yes, but not with God. there are so many things I can say about this dream I have for the nation but thats saving it for another time.

The Point is this.... I was afraid of taking risk, I was afraid of praying that prayer, praying for that dream because somehow I had a thought 'I cant do this, how can God use me'. I've learnt (and its true) that many men forsake their dreams because they aren't willing to take risk , or fear they arent up to the challenge, or know the desires in their hearts are good. We men have become complacent, lazy, wheres the courage, where are the risk-takers? we don't fight for the desires in us.....

HOW??? Is the big question we would ask but thats God's deparment not ours, we are to respond with a willing heart and God can use your life empowered to shake cities, to release a cry of outpouring of His spirit on the nations. the question is not 'how' but 'are you willing? willing to fight for that Dream that God has placed in you?' Start to believe God for the impossible.

Jesus Culture conference

Will be heading off to Jesus Culture conference tomorrow! woohoo~~ can't wait!! I'm so prepared for the conference, ready to have a powerful encounter with Jesus, ready to be trained and equipped to bring revival to the city then the nations......

See you on Sunday!
Get ready to bring the kingdom of heaven to earth!

2010 : Dreams- Moving ahead

There are so many things we all want to do in 2010, we say its a brand new start of the year, we are looking ahead to the great things that are about to come, no doubt about that, but there are times especially for me after the 1st or 2nd month the vision starts to die, the dream starts to fade.
Here are some things to help you kick start the year 2010

• Think positive thoughts - I love it how David says that God is our refuge and strength, always ready to help in times of trouble (Psalm 46:10) Negativity is from the devil, don't listen to it. Heck, even the devil would tempt Jesus on His identity in Luke saying "IF you are the son of God...."
  
• Forget things from the past - forget what has happened and look ahead, its a new day! and of course we need God's help for that. (Isaiah 43:18) Forget the former thing,do not dwell on the past!
  
• Visualize your dream - (Isaiah 43:19) See, I am doing a new thing! Do you not see it? The dream, the rhema word God spoke to you many years ago, or just last year or even 10 years ago. Start believing and visualizing it, know that God is good and His promise will come to pass. The dream and vision may start dying and fading of now, but its time to resurrect that dream, to believe in His promise. I bet whenever Abraham sees the stars he would remember God's promises. Oh and also Set goals and clear steps towards it!
  
• Give thanks and Praise continually to God! - Even if you haven't receive the promise, Give thanks! again I love how David in Psalm 103: 1-2(NLT) saying Praise the Lord, I tell myself, with my whole heart, I will praise his holy name......(v2) ......and never forget the good things he does for me. Remember that God is good and the good things he has done though the good times and bad times. Know that discouragement and disappointment are opportunity for miracles.
  
• Pray Pray Pray! - When you pray.. you're confessing with your mouth on what God had said. Praying also lifts up your faith, pray in a way that your faith will be lifted up just as the first time you got your rhema word. Start praying for the things you have stop praying for. As Bill Johnson said "Pray that God will resurrect prayers and promises"

What am I believing for? There are many things I'm believing for but one thing for sure is for my awesome Life group Acts29 to grow, multiply and be and influence!! (and through that the Church can grow!) I'm believing that this year I can be a leader, one that has a heart of humilty to serve, care and influence. I'm boldly saying it because I know God has spoken to me ,I'm seeing myself just how God would see me, through God's eyes not my eyes =)

I'm believing for my sheeps (ok I never really like the term sheep)*coughs* the people I'm taking care of for spiritual growth and to be Men of God and that they too can leave a legacy

I've only shared this with a couple of people but this is the promise that God had for me mid last year during my prayer times as I was dreaming of doing great things for God and of revival. The Lord told me 'Be a person of destiny that will leave a legacy' (thus my blog heading) God was challenging me to give all of me for all of Him, because I've learnt that a great calling comes with a great price and that may involve more time off the computer and more time praying, fasting, and reading the Word, wow *sweats* bring it on! I challenge you all to live the destiny that God has called you to :)

Okay there are other things but I think I've rambled on enough.... XD

EepppppYYYY Neeewwwwww YYaaahhhhh!!!!

Last post for 2009

Thanks for Bananagurl for doing this XD

Yes, as some of you may not know, I am a superstar *gasps* and I've been working secretly in the media industry for awhile. The only reason why I didn't want to tell anybody was because I don't want any stalkers or paparazzi :)

Okay.. Enough Krap.....

Happy New Years Everybody!! See you guys in 2010!!

DON: is don is good

Looking to make Pepperoni and Caramelised Pumpkin Mini Pizza or how about a simple Salami Open sandwich with tomato chutney?

DON is doing quite a bit of promotion for their meats during this Christmas-New Year season and you can check out free recipes from their website on the corner of the blog. They really have good recipes for good food ;) If you have no idea what DON is... they sell good fine quality meat and no doubt you'll see more of them in Australia. I know they're already bringing it up in Sydney and Melbourne.

DON MISS OUT!!

Christmas: Appreciating God

December is the month where we remember the greatest gift ever given to mankind. It is the gift of God’s only begotten Son for the salvation of the world. For many, it would also be a month where we express our love and appreciation toward people we love and cherish. However, the irony is that very often, Jesus, who is the reason for this season, is not the focus of our celebration. This was the case in Micah 6:3, where God’s people became weary of God.

However, I want you to look at the amazing response of the Almighty God and His great love for His people. God replied “O My people!” Is it not remarkable that such language should be used by the eternal God? It is the voice of earnestness and an appeal of love. Love injured, but living, pleading, striving and entreating. Divine love yearns for the reconciliation of the rebel.

Once upon a time, there were two boys living with their father. The younger boy had an itch to go to the big city. He said to his father, “I’ve had it with these chickens and cows … Father, you are, in one word, obsolete. You don’t know how to live. What I’m asking for is my inheritance now so I can go to the big city and really live it up!” So the father relented and gave him his inheritance and off he went to the big city.

The people who came back from the big city taunted the man as he waited for his son to return, saying, “Hey mister, you must be pretty proud of your little blue-eyed boy. He’s always drunk and spends half his time in bed with some women … he’s really living it up!” But the man waited and waited. And one night he saw his son coming home. He could tell by the walk, the stride and swing of the arms (signs that only love would notice) that it was his son. The father immediately ran out and embraced him, and in that moment, as tears ran down his father’s cheeks, the boy heard him say, “You’re home; that’s all I want.”

This is the familiar story of the prodigal son—and it’s the story many of us have personally experienced. We think that God is here to kill our joy and rob away our fun without realizing that God is for us and He really loves us. This Christmas, let’s appreciate our heavenly Father for who He is. “If we are faithless, He remains faithful” (2 Tim. 2:13). What a great God we serve!

long-awaited post (pics)

Remember I posted a note 2 months ago about me being rewarded at work to go for a rainforest cruise and going to tropical fruit world? I also mentioned that if you write a comment on why do you think Jason is cool then you just entered yourself to win this awesome experience trip with me :) but because nobody did (fail) then at the end I went there with my colleague.

Here are couple of pics from the trip and more pics in my facebook album check it out :)

Because Blogger is lame and because I'm not tech-savy I don't know how to upload and sort these pics out forgive me.

er, yes I know I look like that statue, tahts why I took it XDDid I mention I took a short trip to Mexico?Me and Sharon in Mexico

Oh and I managed to catch this huge Mud Crab and eat it too

Satay aaa satay..!!! Kidding XD those are use to catch oysters

Don't wanna shre my fruits with you hmph~! Oh wait forgot to mention I had chocolate fruit (reallY!) and it was very very good

Loved the feeling of fishing again, but as you can see the fishing rod was quite lame -.- had to kiss the fish goodbye as I put it to the oceanCan't wait to swing to 2010! Ciaoz

Pacers!! >=(

Last year, the Indiana Pacers were terrible, the Utah Jazz had a good run but got knocked out by the Lakers. I thought with the new acquisitions, the Pacers might do well this season, but with injuries and lack of defence this team is breaking my heart. Hope defered makes the heart sick..... and this team isn't doing my health very good.

A winning team will bring healing and comfort. Pacers (and Larry Bird) if you're reading this stop it with the bad offence and start playing good defence! Don't make me turn into a free agent and change to another Eastern Conference Team just as I did to the Nets (before J.Kidd got traded).

Jazz you're doing well, and I love you! just stop losing to bad teams like the Timberwolves (twice!)

What I want for Christmas

Is.............
1.) New Hairdryer
2.) Bedsheet for my queen size bed
3.) Ps3
4.) Wii
5.) Bean Bag
6.) Lazyboy chair
7.) computer chair
8.) one ticket to Japan pls
9.) oh and one to melbourne thank you
10.) and get rid of this stupid virus/spyware where when I turn my internet explorer my pc goes to blue screen and restarts. tcpip.sys error (any help?)

Breakthrough

Man, I'm in need of a breakthrough. Like a big one. God has been speaking to me in doing something and I tried before but failed. So i'm gonna try doing it again after Christmas. It's gonna be a challenge but if I want to see myself move in some areas and have victory in some areas then I'll obey what God has prompted me to do just as Luke 4

Power!!!! Vrooomm Vrooom!!! (if you were there you would understand this hehe)

on a side note

There's Christmas Evax coming up this Wednesday (16th) if you're interested, we'll be going out to the streets giving out candy cane and telling people the true meaning of Christmas (fun!) I believe christmas is a season of eGiving (extra giving) and we should go out there give what we can and most people out there needs love, care and hope even now because its shocking but people do get lonely during christmas

Then we'll be having christmas party next Wednesday (23rd) at my place, so pls do come because there'll be lots of goodies, me making ice cream cake, and gift swapping :)

oh and Christmas Service (20th) this Sunday!! Don't Miss out!

2009 >>>> 2010

Is it just me or did I now only realised its December!!! 2009 is ending soon and seriously time flies really fast this year especially when you start working.

Compared to 2008, 2009 was good... the first 3 months of 2009 was probably a struggle but thank God He helped me pull through and move ahead. I've definately gone to another level now ( played to many games hahaha.. ok lame.. hope u got the joke). This year I've gone deeper in my worship with God and my relationship with Him. Not only have I grown Spiritually but in my character as well, people have been commenting on how much I've grown Spiritually and in my leadership... im so encouraged! Praise God! I know my character still stinks but seeing the stinky Jason before and the stinky Jason now I don't stink as much :) There are of course bad times, storms that do come in and times where I've struggled but I know its not the time to give in, not the time to give up but to continue to move forward and look on whats ahead, trusting in His Grace.

alot of people has been asking me...'Jason!!!! do you have a girlfriend yet!!??' Hahaha no I haven't and I'm not planning to make that my goal next year either... and friends back home please don't call me Gay! eh guys I'm only 22 ok,still young, single and ready to mingle.... kiddin XD.seriously though I feel I still have a lot to grow in and things to focus other than that, besides I don't need one, I'm married to Ministry hahaha. The special someone is somewhere out there I know, I know in God's timing it will come to pass =)

I'm also excited that its not just me but EVERY single individual in church has risen this year and I can see how everyone has a role in God's kingdom and the impact they'll be making!

Really stoked on the upcoming 2010, with confidence I know that God IS going to do greater things in my life and the church. It isn't just me but many of us has said its a time of preparation now, getting in the word and build our wells so when the semester starts, I feel that the harvest is just going to come in and come in till we don't have time to prepare for ourselves because we'll be giving, teaching and disciplin :) aweeesoooomeeeee

"May the fire in you continue to burn, so bright and strong that it'll be infectious..."

mybrute

I've been playing this cute addictive little game called mybrute. Its a game where two cute characters smacks each other to death in a battle simulation. You don't do much in the game except for picking your characters and choosing who to battle with and you let the simulation do the rest. Little did I know it can be so much fun.

Basically if you google mybrute people whould ask you to be their pupil and you can get a Bear or Wolf.. NOTTRUE. However I do believe it gives you good item and skills for a start though. Anyway its a fun game which really takes you 5-10min MAX!!! Join the game and be my pupil!! click on this link here create a charater and challenge me :)

and look!!! *gasps* Iron Man 2!!!

very encouraged

We had life group yesterday and I was leading praise and worship. It was tough to play and sing at the same time especially when you're not naturally a good singer and musician haha.

Praise God after lots of praying and practicing it turned out good, not only musicially but the presence of God was there :) After life group I was sending one of my cool sister (and my backup singer) Paula home and she said 'I really like your singing Jason, today you sounded different, was different than practice, and I think she was 'wow' by it in a good way. I was very encouraged and touched when I heard that *cries* I mean this is coming from a person who was in the school choir its like Michael Jordan just said 'you can make it to the NBA' and your heart just beats 500bpm because of that one word

of course I know I have LOTS to improve on in my singing but that word itself really encouraged me and even my LG leader said PnW was good. I don't really get this much,the last I got was from my music teacher few years back (07) when she said that I have a good voice but need to work on my pitch. that really meant a lot to me lolz.
I've learnt one thing though... its easy to give encouragement and honor to someone you can relate with, how about someone that annoys you and someone that is so bad that you want to distance yourself and protect yourself from them so you won't cry, be hurt or whatever negative thoughts there are? Remember God Holds All things together (Col 1:17) and if your relationship with that person seems falling apart and you can't hold on to it, remember God holds all things together, He is that bridge that will bring the gap smaller therefore decide to love and honor that person just right infront of you....see them as how God sees them, the destiny they have, see them as who they will be and not who they are now.

Okay I dunoo why I started writing that part, the plan was just to tell you guys about the pnw session lolz. maybe its God :)

ohhh and let me let you in a secret ...*I've started writing a diary* Not princess diary but its the Prince diary HAHAHAHHAHA okay Jason you're lame shaddap now

till then... stay cool people, you guys are amazing!

oh and Zaraffas is awesome!

one of those small God moments :)

Just want to share one funny ‘God moment’ I had today...

I was driving on my way to work and was listening to one of Bill Johnson’s sermon and he was preaching something on Jesus being baptized and then the spirit descending on Him like a Dove further later in the sermon he came to the verse on Luke where it says "The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor." Suddenly on the podcast he asked everyone to pray for the Sprit of the Lord to fall on us with a greater anointing, that will blow us away etcetc and as I was driving and praying I don’t know why but I looked to the van on my right lane and on the back of the van it has two doves with the writing ‘Dove Released’

I can’t help but smile at this ‘God moment’ and its as if God was confirming to me that it is done but God was filling me with not just an anointing but double portion (the two doves?) hahaha. Don't you love it when you have those moments? God is Good :)

1 day to go!!

The temptation to eat is so strong >< but its all good, i'm positioning myself to receive more from God and positioning myself for greatness. I'm really praying for guidance, confirmation and even things that are greater than what I could ever dreamed of. More importantly direction for where our Church is going, its exciting and I can't wait!

So you would come

Its good to just go out there and do the things you like. I was pretty bumped for the past few days but just making the decision to go out and play basketball really refreshed me and I had heaps of fun =) Of course we must be careful not to do it till it is an 'idol' in our lives because we must have a balance between work and recreation. Rest when you should be resting, work when you should be working and always remember to continue to serve God in whatever you do.

Here's a video that really touched me and I would like you to see it too :)

Cry

Never in my life I lived in a house where you get it clean then it gets dirty the NEXT DAY and never in my life I had millions of cockroaches crawling on the kitchen floor and dishwasher, trillions of ants invading our lovely home and today for the first time ever.... gazillions of maggots lying on the floor and carpet... waddaafreakk! >=(

watch out for a video for halloween =)

prespetry!!

Ps John Jacks and Monnett is coming again in a month time and i can't believe time flies so fast! The last time I got it was somewhere end of October and now I'm actually honored to be chosen to be prayed over for. Belle said that leaders gets the first priority but she picked me and a couple of others to be prayed for so that's cool. I know I didn't get to share my prophecy from last year... well there are some stuffs you share and some you don't :) wait, I didn't actually share a single thing from last year did I? here's one of them ...

"let me(God) impart into you(Jason) the things that will give you life and others life" Sometimes there's so many things to share I only get to share some through my blog or with my shepherd and sheep, I haven't got the courage to share some stuffs with the church yet because sometimes I feel other people have better words so I can just back out. I guess its something I'm working on and being sensitive to the spirit.

anyway I'm really going to fast and pray hard for this upcoming prespetry, I need some confirmation and guidance. All in all I don't want this year to be like last year where I kinda got disappointed because other people got their confirmation and all I got was something else. Don't get me wrong, I was disappointed at first but thank God after seeking Him and I realize what was it about so its all good. I've already prepared my heart to receive whatever is coming hehe.

Here's a little something I got from my quiet time that I would like to share from 1 Thess 5:14-15
We are told to encourage one another, because at the end of the day we want help others grow. Its easy to see the whole package from the outside on their attitudes, and the way they act, in the same way we too need peope around us that are not quiet but always encouraging us and correcting us with grace that can help us grow in our attitudes as well, with this environment of encouraging and loving one another we can help each other grow in love and Godliness.

Probation performance review

I had my probation review few days ago and it was scary.... there was a chance where after my 3 months probation I might either keep or lose my job. Obviously it has been more than 3 months and so I've kept my job but my performance for the past 3 months is scary.

It's intimidating how you sit in the office in front of your manager ( + shes a female which adds more to the intense atmosphere) and we're in this wide open space anything can be said.

Overall my manager was pretty happy with my performance. Giving me VG and G in all categories. no average or below average. I won't be getting excellent because she said she's strict >=( anyhooowww, here are some summary from the review

• I'm polite and considerate internal and external, progressing well
• Willing to help customers, and I get along well with the staffs and takes cares of the 'girls' well. (there's no male in front office)
• Gaining confidence and showing initiative

IMO its pretty good review however like all reviews there are areas we can improve on and my improvement is to work on engaging guests more and coming out of my shell so the 'real Jason' will shine and start performing well. its a fair comment, and I agree strongly... yes I can do my work well however me holding back abit and honestly struggling a bit to get out and talk more to guest is a problem for me. However I really thank God for such lovely colleagues in my workplace who are so super friendly and open, so I'm slowly building my confidence in talking to aussies :)

an hour later after all that nerve-wrecking review, I was summoned to the office and my manager said because I'm such a good worker they believe I deserve a reward and they offered me a Rainforest Cruise to catch crab, eat seafood and after that a tour to tropical world farm to taste exotice fruits!!! wahhhh!!! She asked if I wanted it and I told her 'if they could get a spot for two then I'll go, if not its alright and I won't go' WHAT? HOW COULD YOU JASON to pass an amazing offer worth close to $200?? as much as I would like to go I rather go with someone so I can enjoy the tour if not im all on my own and it would be super boring.

anyway after that she said she'll see what she could do and she'll let me know.... sooooo just in case, if there's rainforest cruise trip for two , you lucky readers of jasonkid87.blogspot.com might have a chance of winning a rainforest cruise with me!! just leave a comment on 'why is jason so cool to you??' and the best answer wins the prize!!!

hahahha I'm joking (or am I), I always wanted to do that like those celebrity bloggers always having this contest thing XD In the end I just want to thank God for blessing me with this job and helping me grow and mature in my workplace, next step is to build relationships, see souls saved, and I noticed a lot of people who can't walk properly and even blind people( I don't know but there's just something about me and praying for eyes) are there which I would really love to see a miracle in the hotel!!!

Dare to dream

Dare to Dream
Go far with that dream
Don't overlook the significance of the little things as its positioning you for greatness
Don't live your dreams alone

God has been encouraging me to Dare to dream. you know the 'truth and dare' game we play? Yeah its as if God is challenging me 'c-mon Jason, dare to dream,don't be afraid to dream, my plans for you are way bigger than you can even imagine, don't settle for second best'

Michelle Tumes 'Dream'
"There's a dream in your heart
And His heart is your prayer
You can move mountains with your life in His hands
He'll tear down the walls and He'll walk where you can't
Have faith in the power to believe
He has given you a dream"

Dare to dream guys, I dare you :)

Micah 7:8 Generation Light

Times and times devil you want to push me down

to steal my joy, my worship

my love for God

to rob me off my destiny

You tried to break my bones

damage my inner spirit and soul

and suck the life out of me.

You’re scared... very scared that I will rise up,

to lead a generation to their destiny

to plunder hell and populate heaven

Do not gloat over me, my enemy!

Though I have fallen, I will rise.

Though I sit in the darkness,the Lord will be my light

There is nothing my God cannot do,

Your love and power is indescribable

Your mercies are new everyday

Your love never fails

I delight in my weaknesses,

for then the Lord will be my strength

and your grace is sufficient for me

You are the strength when I am weak,

You’re the light in the dark

You’re my feet when I can’t move on

Your whisper brings life to my heart

You’re the author and perfector of my life
You who begun a good work in me shall see it come to completion

Use me to be your hands, to be your feet and your voice

To be a mover and shaker, one that can change destinies

Never again will I live a life of passivity

Do not gloat over me, my enemy!
Though I have fallen, I will rise.
Though I sit in the darkness
the Lord will be my light

I just want you Jesus :)

Hiatus

haha my friends are all on hiatus and guess what? I think I'm going to be on hiatus as well... probably for a week or so ++

and yes I got my net back woohooo!! I have to many things on my hand right now so I won't have time to go online or FB do send me an sms if there's anything =)

Net= dead me= dead

Mmmm haven't been blogged for awhile. Net at home is dead, well actually the phone line, maybe they cut our phone lines because the bill was not paid? I don't know I'll call telstra and find out since no one in the house has been doing anything, everyone is just waiting for some miracle XD

Other than that Life has been good, because God is good, and if God is good all the time means life will be good even through the rough times. (wow I just wrote that, no idea where it came from haha)

okay I would like to write more but my friend is here so I have to go now, will update this post soon :)

Worship Leader- Leading a life of worship

Let's be honest here, how many of us has been in an awesome Praise and Worship session and said to yourself 'One Day I would like to be a Worship Leader' and the reasons can vary, from having the heart to lead people in worship to God, or just want to look good on stage singing on stage mesmerizing the crowd with your voice (kidding), but you know what I mean.

Late 2005 was the year I was born-again, and I was at the Planetshakers Conference getting pumped by good music and worshipping God with all my heart, mind and soul. It was then I saw a vision of me leading the youths back home in worship and getting them in the presence of God. I didn't understand at first but then I just had a thought maybe God has called me to be a worship leader. Most of my mates had a calling for their life and I was wondering what was it, I didn't know. Fast forward to 2006 in Aus. I was praying for 4 months 'God, what is my calling? Is it to be a worship leader? I know I desire it in my heart but I want it to be your will.. what's your will?' and one day I just cried out in desperation and I just heard God say 'I want you to be a worship leader' and suddenly I just burst out in tears. That SAME Sunday, I went to Church (2nd time in Church) and the pastor's wife was praying for me and she said 'God has called you to be a worship leader, you're like Joshua who loves to linger in the tent in the presence of God when everyone is out.... etcetc' I'm like wow! Confirmation on the same week!! Quickly I called my close friend and he said 'huh? I thought that was your calling already..' For some reason couple of people already had the impression that I would be a Worship Leader because they see the passion and the way I worship God (thats what they said, I have no idea why are they looking around during worship)

The big dilemma here is that I can worship God and I Love it! I love to sing but I can't sing well, people would ask me to shut up so it wouldn't rain, or the roof will fall. One worse case was the Senior Pastor of a church I attended asked me not to sing but to mime the words when I was serving as a backup singer (ouch!). That really left a scar for awhile but thank God that part is all healed now, but still I would have the fear of leading and singing even now.

Anyhow my point is that my eyes has opened and I think I know what God meant when he called me to be a worship leader. I always thought that my calling to be a 'Worship Leader' has to be a title. It might be, but for now it's something else. Frankly I believe it's not about the title in my case because I know how sad would it be if that was my only dream? I know God has infused bigger dreams than that for my life.

You see leading worship is not all about getting up on stage and leading people in the presence of God. Worship.... is a lifestyle. The Apostle Paul said that we must "offer our bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing, this is your spiritual act of worship." (Romans 12:1). It's not just singing, jumping, kneeling but its all about the Heart of Worship. God see's the inside of our heart if we are going through the motions or really worshipping Him in awe and reverence. In short it's 'God...Take all of me for All of You' You surrender your all to him, you live a life that is pleasing to God. That is worship, because as we do things that right, you're bringing glory to God and that itself is an act of worship. How do we react to situations? Disappointment, discouragement hits us, do we blame God? do we try to do things our own way? or do we ,in the midst of storms look to God and make the decision to worship Him and despite what we're feeling because we know God is Good and He makes all things work together for our good? God has been challening me in my walk with God to live a life that pleases Him. To live a life that has a heart that hides God's word and beats the heartbeat of God, a heart that serves one master, a heart that brings a smile to my Father's face, that is a sweet aroma of worship to Him. I'm convicted to live my life in God's way that can be an example to others so they can be a true worshipper as well. Do you know even in your house, you spending time with God in your room worshipping Him or even in Church giving your best to God in worship or serving Him is a worship to God? You never know who you can impact by doing those. I have some comments from people saying my passion for worshipping God has lead them to want to worship God even more, Praise God for that! That itself is being a lead worshipper where you make an impact in other people's lives to dwell deeper in God!

So let us start living our lives getting soaked in the Presence of God, going out there with His presence, shining His glory, bringing heaven to earth, leading our life by example that can make a difference in our city and nation! Ultimately the name of Jesus has to be magnified and glorified and us living a life that brings glory to God.

What about those singing on the stage stuff? Honestly I don't know, let God do the promotion, I'm already playing the guitar so let the music I play be anointed and will lead people to worship, but to be on upfront on the stage leading people...? That's in God's timing and if it does happen or not happen... no matter what I'm still going to be a lead worshipper in my lifestyle, its not about the title.

Getting out of my nutshell

Like I said in my previous post, I'm just so lazy and can't be bothered to spend time with my friends because of a risk of getting hurt again but during and after the camp, little did I know God changed me from the inside out and I realized I'm getting out of the shell. During the camp Belle shared an amazing revelation about love and forgiveness. After the camp , I was invited to my friends house for dinner on Monday and Tuesday night and I'm so blessed that my tummy is filled :) but whats more amazing is how I said 'ok I'll go' and during the steamboat dinner I find myself sharing to people and other people opening up and sharing. Just basically doing life with one another and investing in our friendships. I think its just one of those little things that God is doing in me and I realized, hey its not so bad afterall!

I often say 'Let's catch up next time' but that next time never comes, I have to really make the effort to arrange the meetings and say 'hey wanna catch up today?' instead of waiting for the other party to do it.

On a side note, Camp was beyond awesome and I'm infused with Christ's DNA! :)

Caleb's song

CALEB’S SONG (Joshua 14, especially verse 12)

The challenge now is here – What cause is there to fear? I will follow to the place where God has called. And though the task ahead is great, there is no need to wait;God's command is

"conquer cities fenced and walled."

This mountain I shall own, But not for me alone –For my children I shall claim this promised land.Because the Word of God is sure, The future is secure;All the power we need is in God’s mighty hand.

Take courage and be strong – We'll sing the victor's song,All the blessings God has promised we may claim.So let us hasten to obey, Our Saviour leads the way;He will help us win the battle for His name.

GIVE ME THIS MOUNTAIN
GIVE ME THIS MOUNTAIN;TO THE LAND WHERE GIANTS GROW
THAT’S THE PLACE I WANT TO GO
GIVE ME THIS MOUNTAIN, THIS VERY MOUNTAIN,
I SHALL CONQUER IN THE POWER OF THE LORD! – Frank Garlock

meet my new baby ^^

I realized one thing that has been missing in this site is PICTURES!!! No wonder its been so dead lolz. A new baby has been added into the Jason Lee Rock'star family!!

this baby came knocking in front of my door a week ago... I wonder what it is?

Gasp! *screams* Its my Podxt LiVe!!

I slowly unwrapped it like undressing.... er a salad

and I became sakai cos I've never seen this in my life ever, inflatable packagingI almost fainted when I touched it, this baby costed only $415! oh yea and it was my first thing I bought with my salary hahaLittle did I know, my little piggie was the first one that had a little play with it >.<Oh and for those who hasn't seen me with my new glasses, here it is hahaIts been awhile since I've done a youtube video, I'm going to record one soon with my new baby weee!

Introvert vs Extrovert = me

For some people who don't know I'm more of an introvert, meaning I rather spend my time on my own doingmy own things rather than going out with people. Some of you might say 'What???' Because I know I appear talkative, high, making lots of jokes and go crazywhen I'm around people. That's WHEN I'm around with people. This tells me one thing about myself is that I love spending time with myself but when I'm with people I'm an extrovert because I really enjoy the company of others and talking with them. I think as humans we need each other company at times, I think that is why only certain times I would be willing to go out. That said, I found my problem.....

I'm not willing to invest into people's lives and I find it draining and sometimes a waste of time. Furthermore from past experiences, I don't like being close to people in relationships, only the surface level, reason being is I'm afraid that I'll get hurt again if I do get close so I rather distance myself away so I choose who to share my deeper thoughts carefully.

I really thank God for making me the way I am but I know His chellenging me to get out of my comfort zone and start to 'hang out' and willing to sacrifice my time for others and be willing to invest in their lives. It was already hard enough when God challenged me to get out of my shell 4 years ago ,but I'm glad I did because of that I'm an extrovert in front of my friends =)

A horse walks into a bar. The bartender takes one look at it and asks: "So, why the long face?" HAHAHAHA

Need stamina

Things has been going on lately in my life that shows me how weak I am... praise God that I have seen my weakness through my failings. There's something I must do if I want to get serious , things that needs to be changed, hopefully after 4 weeks there'll be a breakthrough :)

Good nite

Stamina reflects how strong your heart is
