Came back yesterday from the Prayer Mountain. 4 of us, Samuel, Shinny, Tiffa and myself went to the prayer mountain on Monday; it was a 5 days trip, we fasted for 4 full days only on water. Did much self-reflection, rest and meditation. After all, I believe that the group receive something fresh from the Lord.
Fasting not so much of a spiritual ritual to me. I fast not because I am bargaining with God or asking Him to give me more blessing. It's surrendering myself, my heart, my will, my soul and my body to Him. It's more of setting my time apart just seeking His face and His presence.
During this trip, on Wednesday I was very irritated by a bank that kept on calling me because of my late payment; I need His extra grace to pay off my debts, I don't mean to pay late I am just not home now. My friend at Mattel called me and gave me a job lead; he wants me to go try out this position at Mattel again; I said, Ok, I will as soon as I get back home. In my heart, I already made up my mind to go back to the marketplace...perhaps it's time to face the "reality", eh? Sigh... I cried in my heart... Is that it God? Is that ALL you can do, Jesus??
Wednesday night, I got a call from Ruth, the daughter of my Korean spiritual mother; she told me that my Korean mom who prays for me everyday had a vision about me earlier. In the vision, God told my Korean mom to tell me not to be afraid and timid.
She said, "Don't be afraid. Stay in this path now, don't go left or right. God is in you midst. Don't' go back to the marketplace. Money is on the way. You are going to train many missionaries and disciples for nations. Disciple them, they are going to be a great army for Jesus. Don't be afraid." I had tears rolling in my eyes when I heard it; God is soooo good. He always comes in the best timing. His name is Jehoval Punctual. He is a faithful God!
That answered three things, one - we are on the right path, two - don't go back to the marketplace and money is on the way, three - School of Disciples is a must. Amen!
I receive. By faith.

Prayer ship...go sailing on a private yacht for a couple of days. Just you God and the Ocean. Would that work? Thats what I want to do. I have a pool. And empty one. Maybe I should camp out a few days in my backyard...in the empty pool...but it echos when I talk. People can hear. "GOD!
