Empowering Others

I believe ministry is about God's presence flowing out of us in the most natural way touching lives around us.....everything else is simply activity and program.

That is the essence of what I taught in the last couple of weeks; in InSight and strategy sessions, in Young Adults group and in Focus group within Melbourne.

InSight

I was privilege to assist Kim Hai and his wife, Sook Ching in moving their sense of calling and mnistry to the next level. Kim Hai is the lastest person to subscribe to InSight and I had a great time helping, coaching and empowering this couple to re-position their lives for the minsitry.

We'll soon see a new ministry with a particular focus on Greater China blosooming in Melbourne!

Young Adults - SURGE Leadership

What a privilege to minister at a mountain resort north east of Melbourne among leaders of SURGE; a Young Adult Group of Clayton Church of Christ. The Group is led by Wayne, a member of InSight

It was wonderful time of ministering in the Holy Spirit. The Leadership was challenged to live a life in totality for Jesus so that ministry becomes an expression of God's awesome presence in our lives.

Many hearts were touched that day - and I ended up praying for needs and spoke prophetically into many lives. Many came away with a specific word from God. I believe many left the resort knowing that God is intent on showing them specific miracles for their lives.

The Living Room

I ministered to a group of young adults whose ministry focus is evangelism. They ran a project called "The Living Room" - a cafe outreach to the Clayton community. These young people are also from the Clayton Church of Christ led by Richard.

It is indeed a privilege to minister and pray for baptism of the Holy Spirit for some of them. God is awesome. He is a faithful God. This group is now empowered and re-positioned to serve with great exploit. I taught on understanding the principles of anointing...it was really good being able to lay hands and minister to young people whose future are limitless!

Australia for Christ Fellowship

I was privileged to minister at Australia for Christ Fellowship, Rowville (ACF) recently. Had a wonderful God-given time ministering and in the evening praying for many young people at the altar. Pastor Kelvin Sim was a great host. My wife, Dorothy and I enjoyed the fellowship very much.

Youth Camp - Malaysia

It was great opportunity to minister to young people at Radiant Life A/G Youth camp held at Broga.

The Broga campsite

The camp was really good. The young people had a great spirit. This church is having a wonderful team of second generations! Many new ones were saved and many more baptized with the Holy Spirit. The second night, I prayed and spoke prophetically into every single camper, including most of the adults who came to visit the night meeting. Awesome God!

Radiant Life A/G Church

I also had the opportunity to speak on Sunday morning for the church's combined service before the Youth camp. That morning, I spent an hour praying for people at the altar!

Jonny Woo and his wife Belinda were great hosts - I stayed at their beautiful home for a few nights - only to discover that they are great friends of Pastor Lawrence Seow! What a small world! I even got gifts, many gifts from this family....a birthday gift as well....Thanks Johnny....and Nick, it was good talking to you. Chase your dreams!

Managing Transitions in Life

This trip to KL was principally to publish my latest book entitled, "Managing Transitions in Life; Making the best of transitions"

This is my 5th book and is largely borne out of the many workshops I developed and conducted across many countries. If you have a chance, grab a copy and read it. It will change your mindset and position you to serve with a true purpose and a deep sense of destiny.

My printer/publisher is a wonderful man of God. Wilson Ng not only run the business in Puchong but he also carries ministry in his own rights - a true marketplace man! If you need printing, contact this man.

Year-End Retreat

It was really good that Dorothy and I were able to attend ECC Casey Family Camp on the last few days of 2006. ECC Casey is of course pastored by my brother, Ps Ken Teo.

We had over 40 people in the camp - and ministry with Ps David and Jeanette Palmer was very good indeed. It was good to be able to simply sit and receive the spoken Word - all too often I am the one speaking and ministering! So it was a very healthy change.

It was a wonderful way to end 2006 - great fellowship and being ministered to in a beautiful location. Camp was at Yara Junction.

Enjoy some photos:
