This occured during prayer meeting in City Harvest KL last Tuesday. If you are not a Christian, you might think that I am crazy and out of my mind.

Last Tuesday pastor told us to find a partner and pray for the person such that the prayer meets the person’s needs (He wants to train church members to listen to God and speak out, aka prophesying, i.e. speaking truth on other’s lives) He said that we should seek a picture or word and speak to the other person. So I partnered with a guy from Kenya who was currently studying in Sunway College. I never knew him before this, so I could not have known about his situation.

It goes like this, we held hands and prayed before speaking out. He went first. He spoke to me that he saw or visualized an airplane. He related to me that he supposed that I would be flying off from Malaysia in the near future maybe for studies or for other purposes. He told me that God would make me a person of influence and cause me to be successful to shine for Him (I’m not blowing my own trumpet). He said a few other things, but roughly this was it.

I never prophesied to another before. After praying in tongues for a while, I saw no vision, image or word. Nevertheless, I just spoke what came to mind. I told him not to worry and not be afraid of the challenges that is facing him, as Jesus says “Do not worry,” and I prayed that his family might one day be saved. I kinda forgot what else I prayed for him, but it seemed pretty general stuff for me.

After the prayer, I saw tears this Kenyan guy’s eyes. He seemed touched. Pastor asked all of us whether the prayer was really personal and meant for the person being prayed for. He raised up his hand indicating that it was really really accurate, and that he felt that the prayer was meant for him. Really man. I just spoke what came to mind.

As for me, I am actually faced with two options now. US or NUS for my higher education. I use a bus or a car to go to Singapore, but not planes. Perhaps God is telling me that I am US bound now? (I have to get admitted to one of the very competitive universities I applied to first) I raised up my hand too. Caused it concerned me and was about my future.

That aside, my previous cell group leader in Singapore also prophesied for me twice. Hers was different. She spoke in first person the first time. It felt like God was talking to me directly. At first, he told me that He knows that I have been studying very very hard in Singapore staying up for many late nights. (I didn’t tell my cell group leader that!) He told me that He would open doors for me so that I can continue running. And He also told me not to worry and he likened me to a little boy with a large sack to carry. He said that I should give Him the burden so that I can be free of it. I could not stop crying when my cell leader prayed. I felt something lifted from my heart that day in Singapore. A burden disappeared.

My God is a wonderful and mighty God.
