Seeing a Turtle...

In the morning prayer, we practice prophecy. We were each given a piece of folded paper with a name of one of our classmates written in it and we were not allowed to open it. We prayed in tongue, asked God what we should tell the person mentioned on the paper, and had our sharing session of what we envision.

When I close my eyes, I saw a very unusual scene. I saw something that resembles a ‘turtle’, and it looks miserable. So I asked myself, “Why God let me see this picture? How will I bless the person, and what does the turtle represent?” Since the turtle looks miserable, I explained the picture with my own words. So, I said: “I saw an animal that is heavy laden, very miserable. I felt like this animal is the representation of this person (written on the paper), he/she is stress because of the pressures. God wants this person to be liberated (let it go)”.

(At that moment, I dare not mention the turtle; logically there won’t be any turtle at that place, and turtle gives people the ‘slow’ impression, so I choose not to mention the turtle. (Please do not follow my way of elaboration!)

Later, we opened the piece of paper, ‘Yu Zheng” name is written on it. We ended the session and headed downstairs to have breakfast. After breakfast, on my way up the top floor, I saw my classmate – Wei Liang holding a bucket. He asked me to take a look inside the bucket. I saw a trionyx. I told Wei Liang, earlier this morning I actually had vision of this animal, it looks miserable. He asked me if the prophesy was for him, I told him it was for Yu Zheng. He then mentioned that the trionyx was caught by Yu Zheng.

I was dumbfounded for a moment; I thought to myself that I should have mentioned the whole vision earlier. Instead, I doubted God, used my own way of explaining God’s prophecy. Brother and sisters, God is a talking God, whatever you see, you must have confidence to speak out, do not doubt God, and do not doubt yourself if you can hear God’s when He reveals to you. May God bless you, Amen!

** I don’t know how to differentiate a turtle and a trionyx **

16-07-2009早上晨祷的时候，我们操练预言。每个同学都被派了一张纸，里面都有我们同学的名字，但是我们不能开。所以我们就方言祷告，然后问上帝要对纸上的人说什么，再来就分享我们所看见的。

当我闭上眼睛的时候，我看见一幅很奇怪的图画。我看见长得很像乌龟的一只“乌龟”，样子很痛苦。然后我就问自己说，“为什么上帝给我看见这幅图画呢？而且这幅图画是要祝福手上的那个人的，乌龟喻表着什么呢？”因此，因为我看见乌龟的样子是痛苦的，我就用我自己的方式去解释这幅图画。我说：“我看见一只动物被很重的东西压着，很痛苦。我感觉这只动物喻表着这个人（纸上的人），可能是被环境所压迫，所以感到很压力，我感觉上帝要告诉这个人出去出去（释放）。”

（当时我不敢讲乌龟，因为理智上告诉我这个地方不可能有乌龟，而且乌龟通常给人的感觉是慢吞吞的、不好的，所以我不选择讲乌龟，请大家不要学我用自己的方式去解释！）

后来，我们就打开手上的纸，里面的名字是“玉真”。之后，我们便结束祷告，下楼吃早餐了。完了早餐后，当我正要上楼的途中，我看见我的同学伟良手上拿了一个桶。他就顺手叫我看桶里面的东西，后来我看见一只鳖。我告诉伟良说，今天早上我就是在异象中看见这只东西，样子很痛苦。然后，伟良就问我今早的预言是不是为他发的，我说不是，而是为玉真发的。后来，他竟然告诉我，这只鳖是玉真抓的。

其实当时我顿时傻了一下，心想我真的不应该没有把整个异象的所见说出来。反而怀疑上帝，还用了自己的方式去解释上帝的启示，真的很不应该。弟兄姐妹们，上帝是一位会说话的神，你所看见的，就要用信心把它讲出来，不要怀疑上帝，也不要怀疑自己是不是能够听到或看到上帝的启示。愿上帝赐福于你，阿门！

** 我不会分辨乌龟和鳖...

Do you believe?

Today ( May 19, 2009 ), all of us ( students ) gathered at the library. Our pastor - Pastor Mee Eng prayed for all of us before we left for Sibu Shan Yang Mall for prophetic Evangelize.

At the mall, I kept looking for my ‘prey’, hoping to come across someone whom I will be touched and have the vision, so I can be spreading the gospel to. Unfortunately, I didn’t see anyone that gives me the ‘touched feeling’. Honestly, I was a little disappointed and lost, feeling like I was wasting my time. As I was walking, God told me “Sit down and pray to me.” Then, I decided to sit down and do my prayer.

When I was sitting down praying to God to let Him give me the vision, I saw a girl who looks very much like myself, long hair, and she lifted up her head slowly, was happily dancing. God let me see her close enough to see the ear ring she is wearing. It was vividly clear to me that it is a big shining white ear ring, looks like a diamond. Even though it was so clear to me, but I still doubted if it was me over thinking, since I am at the mall, it is natural to fantasize about ear ring.

So, I asked the Lord, “Okay… If there is really this girl, where will she be? Which floor?” Suddenly, there is a small voice in my head saying third or forth floor. I was taking it casually; I thought the voice is coming from my own thoughts and perception. Then again I asked God, if such a girl really exist, what do You want me to tell her? Then, God revealed to me that there is a function in her family. I saw a Birthday kind of party. After seeing that vision, I continued my search with the doubtful heart and partial hope.

It was kind of weird, God slowing guided me to the forth floor. Just when I was about to step on the escalator, I saw on my right, in front of a beauty salon, there stand a young non-Chinese looking girl staring at me. I had the goose bump effect immediately; she is wearing the same ear ring as what I had just envisioned. It is a big pearl ear ring. This type of ear ring is not in trend, very unlikely there will be other shoppers in the mall that would wear the same ear ring. So, I mastered the courage to talk to her, “I am a Christian, just a while ago, when I was praying, God gave me a vision to see your ear ring. The girl was surprised, replied “Really? Wow, God really let you see the vision? What a miracle?” I answered “I also think it is a miracle, God also revealed to me that one of your family members is having birthday?” When I asked that question, I was expecting her to say ‘no’, because I didn’t believe everything I saw could be that accurate, moreover, what are the chances of the ‘birthday’ guess to be right?

I could have never thought that her answer was “Wow! God really talk to you! Today is my sister’s birthday! What a miracle! What a miracle!” I was shocked to hear that! The girl said she has goose bump too, we even showed it each other!

We chatted a while about God’s miracles, she was very delighted. However, she has to attend to her salon customer, and asked me to wait for her. So, I was standing right outside of the salon, I took the opportunity to pray and asked God how should I share gospel with her and pray for her? God revealed to me on her family and relationship issues.

When she came out, she was questioning me if there is anything else that I would like to tell her. I said “Yes, God continued revealing me that you are encountering some family issues?” She looked helpless, her eyes were tearing and she told me that she and her husband have some marriage problem. Then, I prayed for her and prophesized that God will give her spirit of happiness and everything is in God’s hand, and she should not worry.

She was very appreciative to God, she knows that God loves her. Otherwise, God will not send me to her. She asked me the church schedule, as she is interested to take part.

God is so real! Because of my little believe, I have personally encountered such a real experience. Through this, God tells me He listens to our prayer, he is a talking God! This experience makes me rely and trust Him more! Now I understand why when I was first receiving the gospel, I was told “Jesus is a real God!”
God shows me her love through the people needing him. This experience has increase my longing and passion for God, and I was not afraid of the vision He gave me, because God is in control of everything, as long as my motive is to glorify His name, and for the people that He loves. God bless! ;)

你相信吗？

今天（19-05-2009），我们一班神学生在图书馆集合准备去诗巫三洋广场布道，牧师就为我们祷告，然后我们就出发了。

到了广场的时候，我不断地寻找“猎物”，希望看到某某人的时候，我会有感动和看到异象，然后可以向他布道。但是很可惜的，我并没有看到任何一个所谓“有感动的”布道对象。老实说，当时我有点失望，也感到很彷徨，觉得自己好像在无所事事的浪费时间。所以在走着走着的时候，上帝对我说：“坐下来！向我祷告。”，后来，我就决定坐下来祷告。

当我坐下来祷告求神给我看异象时，我见到一个女孩长得很像我自己，头发长长的，头慢慢的抬起来，很喜乐的在跳舞，然后神慢慢的拉近给我看见女孩所戴的耳环，它是一对闪亮亮很大粒白色的耳环，就好像钻石一样，异象中看到非常的清楚。虽然说看到很清楚，但是心中还是怀疑不知道是不是自己想太多了，因为自己身在广场，幻想耳环也并不稀奇。所以，我就说：好吧！如果真的有这个女孩，那么她在哪里呢？第几楼呢？突然间，我的思想中就有三或四楼的声音出现，当时我并不以为然，同样的我一样是怀疑声音是来自自己的心思意念。最后，我说，如果真的有这个女孩，那神你要我讲什么呢？神在这个时刻向我启示，神说女孩的家里有人开宴会。当时我所看到的异象是生日或是大寿之类的宴会。看完异象了后，我只是带着半信半疑的心情和一半的希望站起来开始去布道。

但是很奇怪的是，神慢慢的带领我到四楼，就在上电梯的那一霎那，我看见在我的右手边的一间美容院的前面，站着一个不像是华人的年轻女人正在看着我，当时我浑身的毛都站了起来，因为我看见她所带的耳环就是我异象中所看见的一样，是珍珠耳环，很大粒的。这种耳环并不流行，所以应该广场中没有任何人会带这种耳环了。所以，我就鼓起勇气过去向她开口说：“我是基督徒，刚刚我在祷告中，神在我的异象中给我看到你的耳环。”而那个女人就很惊讶的说：“真的吗？哇！神真的给你看到异象！好神奇哦！”我就回答她说：“我也觉得很神奇，还有神也启示我你的家人或家里是不是有人生日？”。其实我问这个有关生日的问题的时候，我预料她会讲没有，因为我不相信我所看到的异象全部都会这么准确，而且生日的机会这么渺茫，“猜中”的机会太过茫然了。

但是，我万万想不到她的回答是：“哇！神真的跟你讲话！今天是我的姐姐的生日！太神气了！太神气了！”。当我听到这样的回答时，我呆了一下，浑身的毛都站了起来，心想着：不会吧！就连那个女人也说她的毛也站了起来，我们还当场给对方看我们的“鸡皮疙瘩”。

后来，我们就聊了一下有关神的神迹，她也感到非常兴奋。但是，因为她所美容的顾客的时间到了，她需要帮顾客过水，就叫我一定要等她。所以我就站在外面等她，顺便也藉着这个机会问上帝我应该怎样向她传福音或祷告，后来上帝又启示我有关她的家庭、情感上的问题。

当她出来的时候，她还很兴奋的问我是不是有话要跟她讲，我就说：“是的，上帝继续的启示我，你是不是家庭中遇到了一些问题？”当时，她很无奈、眼睛当场变红、湿湿的说她和丈夫之间出现了婚姻问题。之后我就为她祷告发预言说到，上帝会赐给她喜乐的灵，万事都在神的手中，叫她不用担心。

她非常的感激神，她也知道神非常的爱她，不然上帝也不会差遣我到她那里去。她还问我的教会聚会时间是几时，因为她想参加。

神是如此真实！因为我的小信，也不相信自己的身上能够体验到如此真实的经验，所以我想也想不到神透过这次的经验告诉我，说他是一个垂听祷告和会说话的神。求神赦免！这次的经验让我更加的依靠神、信靠他。我终于也明白为什么当初有人为我传福音时所说的：耶稣是一位真神！。神让我感觉到他的慈爱在有需要他的人的身上，也藉着这次的机会眺望了我对神的那种热忱，更加的鼓励我在发预言上和看异象上不感到惧怕，因为神掌管了我的一切，只要我们的动机是为了福音，为了神和他所爱的世人，神必定满满的祝福。阿门！
