<strong>Miracle</strong><br />

<strong>Service</strong><br />

<strong>Report</strong><br />

September 24, 2011<br />

<strong>Report</strong>ed by Sarah Koh<br />

Our God not only saves but<br />

also heals. Many at the<br />

<strong>Miracle</strong> <strong>Service</strong> experienced<br />

His salvation and the following<br />

testimonies demonstrate His<br />

healing grace:<br />

Six months ago, Anthony Sng<br />

suffered a stroke and was<br />

bedridden. Three months<br />

later, when he was able to sit<br />

up, he came to the <strong>Miracle</strong><br />

<strong>Service</strong> in a wheelchair. He<br />

attended the service six times<br />

and was touched and healed<br />

progressively. Tonight, he<br />

stood up and gave glory to<br />

God for his miraculous<br />

healing. He could now walk<br />

and even drive. God had<br />

healed him totally. Hallelujah!<br />

For 10 years, Neoh Kien Kee<br />

was plagued with ringing<br />

sound in his right ear. He<br />

started attending the <strong>Miracle</strong><br />

<strong>Service</strong> since March this<br />

year to pray for his healing.<br />

Tonight, half way through the<br />

service he realized that the<br />

ringing and buzzing sound<br />

had reduced by 95%. He was<br />

indeed confident that the<br />

other 5% would be totally<br />

gone in Jesus’ Name!<br />

In June this year, Seow Lai<br />

Watt suffered terrible pain in<br />

his left cheek and nostrils.<br />

The pain would be triggered<br />

with the slightest touch on<br />

his left cheek or nostrils. As<br />

a result, washing face and<br />

even breathing hurt. So he<br />

went to a dentist and did<br />

an X-ray but was told that<br />

there was nothing wrong.<br />

He was also recommended<br />

to an ENT specialist and<br />

was scheduled to see him<br />

again in mid November.<br />

Meanwhile, he attended<br />

the <strong>Miracle</strong> <strong>Service</strong> on<br />

two occasions. After that,<br />

he realized that he could<br />

breathe easily and touch<br />

his face without any pain.<br />

Praise God, before he could<br />

meet with a specialist, he<br />

was already healed in Jesus’<br />

Name!<br />

James Quek, an 18-yearold<br />

student first came to<br />

<strong>Lighthouse</strong> when he was in<br />

Secondary 2. At that time,<br />

he had problems managing<br />

his anger. Earlier, he did<br />

poorly in his PSLE. Hence,<br />

he lost confidence in his<br />

education and wanted to<br />

give up studying. However,<br />

after he started attending the<br />

<strong>Miracle</strong> <strong>Service</strong> regularly,<br />

he realized that his life<br />

has changed for the better.<br />

Once he received healing<br />

of his chest pain and this<br />

propelled him to trust God.<br />

So he grew in confidence and<br />

began to work hard on his<br />

studies. Now studying in the<br />

Polytechnic, he did better<br />

than expected in the<br />

recent examinations.<br />

Praise the Lord!<br />

Three weeks ago, 12-yearold<br />

Matthew Chuang<br />

was diagnosed with liver<br />

inflammation. He was<br />

hospitalized immediately<br />

for more than a week. All<br />

sorts of tests and scans<br />

were done on him. He was<br />

not getting better but felt<br />

lethargic and could not eat.<br />

Then he was supposed to go<br />

for a biopsy. Matthew prayed<br />

and hoped that it could be<br />

averted as the procedure<br />

would disrupt his upcoming<br />

PSLE. Last week he came<br />

to the <strong>Miracle</strong> <strong>Service</strong> to be<br />

prayed for and after that<br />

his condition improved. One<br />

day before the scheduled<br />

biopsy, his blood was taken<br />

for liver function test and it<br />

yielded good results. He was<br />

delighted because it would<br />

mean that the biopsy was not<br />

needed and he could sit for<br />

his exams. Indeed this young<br />

boy was grateful to God for<br />

his speedy recovery. Jesus is<br />

worthy of all praise!<br />

Pastor Rony, in his sermon Acts of Lighters, issued a<br />

call for us to keep our <strong>Miracle</strong> <strong>Service</strong> [and certainly,<br />

other harvest events] in focus. Like it or not, we<br />

cannot deny this clarion call to engage in the task of<br />

evangelism. Come Lighters, gear up for the upcoming<br />

<strong>Miracle</strong> Breakthrough. Mark November 25 and 26<br />

to be a landmark event in the history of our church.<br />

join us at the <strong>Miracle</strong> Breakthrough Prayer Retreat,<br />

from November 23 to 25 (Wednesday to Friday), in<br />

the throne of God, waging spiritual warfare, casting<br />

out unbelief, darkness and sicknesses and interceding<br />

for an unprecedented breakthrough. Let’s expect God<br />

to send a revival into our land.<br />

You can sign up for the retreat at the counter after<br />

the service. Registration closes next Sunday,<br />

Touchlight<br />

Support<br />

Group<br />

The church is well aware of the profound<br />

impact autism has on families. It can be<br />

extremely demanding and draining on<br />

both the parents and caregivers of such<br />

children.<br />

Touchlight Ministry is launching its first<br />

support group on Saturday, November 12,<br />

in LE Tampines from 2.00 pm to 4.30 pm. It<br />

will be an avenue for these parents to meet<br />

others with similar experiences and to find<br />

support, share ideas and gain information.<br />

The objective of the meeting is for families<br />

to understand the power of God and how<br />

prayer can change families encountering<br />

autism and related disabilities.<br />

Next year, this support group will meet<br />

whenever there is a 5th Saturday. The<br />

venue of the meeting will alternate between<br />

LE Tampines and LE Woodlands. Please<br />

feel free to join us whenever possible!<br />

If you are interested in attending our<br />

upcoming meeting on Saturday,<br />

November 12, please fill in the Request<br />

Reachlight<br />

Young Adult<br />

Retreat<br />

December 15 to 17<br />

Title: A step of faith -<br />

in the right direction.<br />

Brother Michael Sim is no stranger to making<br />

difficult choices. A devoted father of five and<br />

a passionate Lighter who serves faithfully<br />

in church, he knows that choices come with<br />

consequences and convictions. While he<br />

candidly admits that he had made mistakes in<br />

the past, he is convicted that God had allowed<br />

him to go through those mistakes. Now he<br />

could identify with and minister more closely<br />

to others, especially young adults living in this<br />

day and age.<br />

With deep enthusiasm, Brother Michael said,<br />

“I was asking the Lord, ‘Where else can I<br />

serve You?’ and He brought into my heart<br />

people aged 18 to 35." It is to this very group<br />

that he will minister to at the upcoming<br />

Reachlight Young Adult Retreat.<br />

It's time for us to seek Him and take a<br />

step of faith to hear His gentle whispers at<br />

the Crossroads Retreat from Thursday to<br />

Saturday, December 15 to 17, at Holiday Inn<br />

Resort Batam!<br />

Please visit our registration counter after<br />

the 9.00 am, 11.15 am or 3.15 pm service.<br />

Registration closes on October 30. We look<br />

forward to a refreshing and fulfilling time with<br />

you at Crossroads!<br />

An excerpt from the book<br />

The Seven Seals<br />

written by Pastor Rony Tan<br />

$18<br />

The First Seal<br />

In the visitation by the risen<br />

and glorified Lord, John was<br />

given the awesome privilege<br />

to witness both the glorious<br />

wonders of Heaven and the<br />

horrendous judgments on<br />

earth.<br />

In the heavenly congregation<br />

of saints and angels before<br />

the throne of God, the scroll<br />

was transferred from the<br />

hand of God the Father to<br />

the risen Lamb, signifying<br />

that all power has been<br />

returned to the Lord Jesus<br />

Christ. Therefore, He now<br />

has the absolute power and<br />

authority and is in absolute<br />

control. He has the right to<br />

judge the world and then rule<br />

the entire universe with His<br />

redeemed saints.<br />

The Apostle John was given<br />

four foreboding visions of<br />

the horsemen of Apocalypse.<br />

Each one features a horse<br />

and a rider. The color of each<br />

horse was being specified<br />

and the description of each<br />

rider was given.<br />

As John saw and began<br />

to put in words the<br />

composite pictures of the<br />

four visions specifying<br />

the colors of the horses<br />

and the characteristics of<br />

the horsemen, it is God’s<br />

intention for the hearers<br />

and readers of the Book of<br />

Revelation to know the story<br />

and the meaning behind each<br />

vision. Each one is about a<br />

major coming world event.<br />

Let’s study the first vision.<br />

As we begin to look ahead<br />

of time to discover the soon<br />

coming future of this world,<br />

is it full of promise or full<br />

of dread?<br />

Revelation 6:1-2<br />

Now, watch the scenario<br />

carefully. The Lamb of God<br />

(the risen Christ) broke the<br />

first seal of the scroll, but<br />

He did not open the scroll to<br />

read. The seal breaking is<br />

merely symbolic of a<br />

hidden mystery that was<br />

being disclosed.<br />

One of the four living<br />

creatures loudly thundered,<br />

“Come and see!” Immediately,<br />

John heard and saw. It was a<br />

vision depicting an endtime<br />

event. John saw a white<br />

horse with a rider who had a<br />

bow. Conspicuously missing<br />

were the arrows. A crown<br />

was given to him because<br />

he had none. After that, he<br />

went forth conquering.<br />

Now, who is this character?<br />

This imposing personality<br />

could be easily mistaken for<br />

the Lord Jesus Christ. Some<br />

Bible scholars and preachers<br />

have quoted Revelation 19:11-<br />

16 to support this view.<br />

Revelation 19:11-16<br />

There are four ideas and<br />

imageries of similarity<br />

in both the passages of<br />

Revelation chapters 6 and<br />

19. They seem to conspire<br />

together to deceive us that<br />

the rider is Christ Jesus.<br />

They are:<br />

– a picture of a horse and<br />

a rider<br />

– a white horse<br />

– a crowned potentate<br />

– a conquering king.<br />

Take a closer look and you<br />

will see stark differences. In<br />

fact, there are at least five<br />

glaring differences.
