Day2 
The day started off with an interpretation of Pastor Chris’ dream for the KL mission trip team during our morning devotion. He prophesized about a new generation, us, that will rise up and rewrite the reformation theology – one that tells of what a Christian who is rightly related to our Father God and empowered by the Holy Spirit is capable of. Akin to how new wine is not to be poured into old wine skin, the upcoming revival is more than just attracting new believers into the Kingdom, it will also be a time of discipleship of new believers to move in love and power in the spiritual realm.
Yesterday was one of anticipation, hesitation, and apprehension. Today saw a radical change in the KL mission trip team. There was no more testing waters; we dived straight in. Responding to Sarah Yang’s request for us to become her ministry team, every single one of us arose and shone for the Lord. We exercised our faith during Christian Fellowship at Kolej Damansara Utama (college). It was a great session, where the Malaysians responded to Sarah Yang’s call to commit their lives to the Lord, while the team experienced the Holy Spirit through prayer, worship and prophesy. We prayed for those who came forward, releasing word of prophecy and healing prayers over them. Alvin also gave a Word of Knowledge for a girl in the room – that the Lord is raising her to be a shepherd, one who is strategically placed in a position that provides her the platform to be of influence over her peers. Indeed, that is what she is, a prefect in school.
Day 3
1 Cor 14:31 “For you can all prophesy one by one, that all may learn and all may be encouraged”. We saw this verse come to life through a series of practice. The team and other fellow sisters and brothers in Christ practiced prophesizing for each other back in Antioch church before heading out to the malls for Treasure Hunt. Accurate prophecies were prophesized for us and by us. We were strengthened, encouraged, and comforted.
It’s only Day 3, and it is evident how the team has grown and developed.
It’s a time for CHANGE.
Spot the difference, in us.
Below is a testimony from Eunice:
My group of three, myself and two young adults from the Antioch Church, had with us ten clues as we headed for the mall. But we could not find any one who matched the descriptions. It was ten in the morning and no one was at the malls yet. With about twenty minutes left, I told the other two that we had to do something, anything, before we left. The other two shared the same sense of hunger and expectation to see God work.
While we were walking back, I saw a middle-aged Chinese man, and decided to approach him. I started, trying to introduce us. All I received was a blank stare and then a dismissal. We walked on. And suddenly, Ming Yue said, ‘Hey, let’s pray for that man. He’s got financial difficulties.’ Ming Yue had been experiencing a dizziness and felt the ground shaking for the last five minutes before we met the guy. So had I. I felt a pain in the right side of my head, which spread, which I knew was not my own. I was amazed. So we stopped and prayed for the man.
We had a few practical sessions within the church before the Treasure Hunt, and despite a few accurate prophesies, I realized there is no trepidation like that when approaching someone in a big mall with no boundaries and limitless possibilities. I don’t know if those people bore witness to our testimonies, but results don’t matter, as Sarah taught us. I know for sure though, that God was proud that we, a bunch of young and hungry kids, stood out in faith and spoke His word. And that’s all that matters.
