The 4th Joshua Camp reported by the Editorial Team
02 Dec
Bill Johnson says “The doctrine stating signs and wonders are no longer needed because we have the Bible was created by people who hadn’t seen God’s power and needed an explanation to justify their own powerless churches.” All teaching is to lead us to build His Kingdom and empowerment is not without purpose. We are to be trained, equipped, empowered to be co-workers with God for end time harvest.
Malacca is of great importance to the heart of God. The first Christian missionary came to Malacca in 1511. The gospel was brought to Malacca by the Portuguese. In 2003 while Ps Paul was attending one of Wesley Methodist Cell Group meetings, Ps Paul obeyed God and prophesized that the coming revival will spark off in Malacca. Ps Paul shared this prophecy with President of Agape Renewal Center in California, Rev Dr Ernest Chan in 2004 when he was in California. God also prompted upon Dr Chan’s heart to set up an Agape Training Centre in Malacca.
Looking back since the 1st Joshua Camp to the present camp we can affirm that the Lord poured down His Holy Spirit without measure (John 3:34). The anointing becomes stronger and stronger and God is leading more and more people to be trained for His advancement of His Kingdom. In this camp, many lives were set free from bondages, many healings took place and great empowerment happened so that those He had chosen would be more effective in serving Him. God poured out His Spirit like the river from the throne room of God as in Ezekiel 47.
We had thirty over photographs that revealed the Glory of God in the form of angelic orbs in this camp. A pastor and his wife came from Singapore to this camp believing God has a plan for them. Putting his pride aside, he and his wife stepped forward to receive the power of God with a surrendered heart. Both of them were greatly blessed by God’s anointing and Ps Paul released the word that his ministry will never be the same again. Another brother who came for the first time to CKRM was also greatly blessed. Under the Prophetic Anointing session, words from the Lord were released to him. The Lord called him to be a pastor and also be a part of this great work that God is going to do in Malacca. Many confirmations were released by the Holy Spirit to this brother. Another highlight was the ordination of Elder Sitoh from Singapore and Bro Chang from Banting as pastors to serve God in a mighty way.
Taking the step of faith to come to Malacca to set up CKRM about 8 months ago, we see the hand of God moving in awesome way which is beyond the comprehension of human logic and reasoning. CKRM has been experiencing the abundant grace and blessings from God. Not only do we witness congregation growing, but CKRM has also made further inroad into Selangor, where a CKRM Banting Church (July 2009) and a CKRM Klang ministry (September 2009) have been set up. With 2010 being the revival eve, CKRM will commence an English Church on Thursday 7th January 2010 (See Announcement http://www.ckrm.org/?page_id=1475). Revelation 3:7 “And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write, These things says He who is holy, he who is true, “He who has the key of David. He who opens and no one shuts, and shuts and no one opens”.
The camp came to a close by giving Glory to the Holy Spirit with the tremendous out-pouring and with fantastic testimonies from those who came to the Joshua Camp for the first time. It was an awesome, joyous and refreshing time soaking in the glorious presence of the Lord. Many lives were blessed, set free, healed, restored, revived and empowered to become a Spirit filled Christian walking in the Spirit. Roman 8:14 “Because those who are led by the Spirit of God are sons of God.” Two days of camp was certainly a demonstration of the Power of God Paul said in 1 Corinthians 2:4-5, “My message and my preaching were not with wise and persuasive words, but with a demonstration of the Spirit’s power, so that your faith might not rest on men’s wisdom, but on God’s power.”
The best didn’t die with the apostles; the best is yet to come. We need the Power of God to accomplish great things for God. Hopelessness leads to self –centeredness. Self-centeredness leads to powerlessness. And powerlessness Christians do not change the world.
