*D.* Synopsis for Daniel 7
1. The spiritual lesson is in the meaning of the 4 beasts in Daniel’s dream.
2. Lion referred to the Babylonian empire
Bear referred to the Medo Persian empire
Leopard referred to the Greek empire
The Fourth beast was the Roman and revived Roman Empire.
3. God pre-ordained each empire’s power and cessation. This shows God’s control over all the kingdoms and their rulers. All kings and emperors are put in place and removed by Almighty God in accordance with His pleasure and will.
4. We take comfort in our loving heavenly Father who is in control or world powers and empires. He is all powerful and mighty and will take good care of us.

Main Synopsis
🌈1. JOY is God-blessed feeling of His pleasure. It is one of the nine-fold fruit of the Holy Spirit, which is the mark of maturity of a disciple of Jesus Christ.
🌈2. JOY robbers have names – People, Circumstance, Past, and Worry. We must deal with these that dam up our flow of joy.
🌈3. JOY is available in Christ despite people, circumstances, our past and our inclination to anxiety.
🌈4. Let us journey together as we will be transformed by the JOY principles that are found in the Epistle of Philippians.

1.⁠ ⁠God is not only in control of our lives, but also in control of conflicts between nations and other historical events.

2.⁠ ⁠God brought these events in our lives to teach us valuable lessons to steer away from sin and to draw near to Him.

3.⁠ ⁠Through these historical events, God shows His might and power against the powerful earthly kings. Even, the greatest emperor on earth fell under God’s punishment.

4. But to those who are the righteous believers, He will deliver them from trouble in accordance with His will.

Topic: Gems of Good Friday
Preparation for Good Friday and Easter 2024
by Rev Goh Seng Fong

Feb 22: Designed by God

Feb 29: Release through Forgiveness

Mar 7: Eternity through Salvation

Mar 14: Triumph over Tragedy

We come together to remember and reflect on the suffering and death of JESUS on the Cross for our sins. It is also a day of hope and redemption, symbolising the triumph of GOD over Satan, light over darkness, and life over death, thus opening the door to eternal life and salvation.

The series on Gems will focus on GOD's eternal Design, His merciful Forgiveness, His gracious Salvation and His ultimate Triumph over death, Satan and hell.

Boundaries
(by H. cloud)

When you build a fence around your yard, you don't build it to figure out the boundaries of your neighnbour's yard so that you can dictate how he should behave. You build it around your own yard so that you can maintain control of what happens to your own property.

Boundaries do the same.

Boundaries help us stay true to who we really are. When we own our boundaries and hold to them without a question mark at the end, it helps us avoid having those boundaries violated and having inappropriate responses as a result.

Have you seen this play out in your own life? God created us to have boundaries and to respect the boundaries of others.

(a) God used afflictions and suffering to steer Joseph towards a particular course in his life. Are we also facing trials and tribulations? Is God steering us in a particular direction?
(b) Through the afflictions and suffering, Joseph continued to be faithful and obedient to God. Likewise, are we faithful and obedient to God despite the difficulties in our lives?
(c) God directed Joseph through his hardship. Are we able to sense God’s direction in our lives?
(d) God is in full control of our lives, events and circumstances. Knowing this, how should we live our lives?
The above lessons and questions will lead us in a closer walk with God, understand His will for our lives and be blessed.

Session 1 - August 3, 2023 Joseph and his brothers
(a) Joseph, the most loved son of Jacob, went through slavery, imprisonment, and victimisation by his brothers. What was God’s purpose?
(b) How do we identify with our own pain and suffering with God’s purpose?

Session 2 - August 10, 2023 Joseph’s imprisonment, dream and promotion
(a) Joseph’s imprisonment and God’s purpose.
(b) Joseph’s dreams
(c) How do we look at setbacks in life and how does God afflict us for a purpose?
(d) Joseph became prime minister of Egypt and the brothers came to Egypt for food.

Session 3 - 17 August, 2023 Joseph was reunited with his brothers
(a) Joseph’s brothers were then fearful as their misdeeds against Joseph came back to haunt them. (b) But, Joseph was gracious and forgiving and they were reunited in brotherly love.

Session 4 - 24 August, 2023 “You thought evil but God meant it for good”
(a) Joseph’s brothers thought evil against Joseph, but God meant it for good that Joseph would go to Egypt and save his family from famine.
(b) In many ways, God takes good care of us. Through affliction and suffering, God prepares a better place or circumstances for us.

TWELVE ORDINARY MEN

Jesus chose The Twelve that were inadequate in status, education, ability and capability. Jesus knew their personalities, both strong and weak.
He knew that they would disappoint and deny Him. However Jesus knew they would soon be transformed and empowered to carry the Gospel to the ends of the known world.
Let us examine our life and commitment from the ways Jesus dealt with these lives and submit ourselves to His transforming power to be and to do His will.
Please do pray and invite loved ones and friends to these exciting lectures.
God bless you and all yours as you continue for greater and better 2023, growing in faith, obedience and sacrifice to the Glory and Praise of God. Amen.

Your servant in CHRIST JESUS,
Rev Goh Seng Fong
