April 2011 Report
, Category: Reports,21 April, 2011
Hi,
In this Good Friday, we are reminded that Jesus had borne our griefs and carried our sorrows (Isa. 53:4). In all our afflictions, He was afflicted (Isa. 63:9).
How does God feel when we are suffering? God understands our pain and absorbs it to
Himself. When we suffer, He suffers also. On the Cross, God was never more human than
at that hour. God was never nearer to us than when He hurt. In that suffering, God is most
like us. Touched with our trials and sufferings, He understands and stretches out His
nail-pierced Hands to help and to hold us. In our suffering, we can see God like never
before. It may be the closest we will ever get to God. God’s effort becomes the strongest,
when our efforts are useless.

On the Cross, He stepped in and made us alive, forgave us, cancelled our debt, took
away the record, stripped the powers of spiritual rulers, won the victory and showed
the world through His resurrection. (Col. 2:13-15).

Thus we become the sons and daughters of the living God, heir of God and joint heirs
with Jesus Christ. Each of us is a new creation in Christ, of infinite worth, deeply loved,
completely forgiven, fully pleasing, totally accepted and absolutely complete in Christ
– one of a kind, a designer original.

This Good Friday, we should, ever the more, put our hands into His nail-pierced Hands.
His marvelous love is passionate, personal, purposeful and pursuing. His eternal love
is unconditional, unchanging, unending and untainted. In Him, we are saved and safe
and secured in His Hands.

May the good Lord bless His love and salvation into all our hearts!
Please pray as the pastors and leaders of a fellowship of some 60 country-side churches
gather for special training times in Tanzania. I will be there from Sat. April 23 to Tue.
May 3. There will be three days of training for Bible College students, three days for
the pastors and leaders and a graduation service on Sun. May 1st. God is given us the
privilege and joy to be ministering to them. May souls be saved, saints equipped and
pastors and leaders raised up to minister to their own.

Thanks again for your prayers and support in so many ways to enable us to train Nationals for Nationals. Please visit the blogspot athttp://faithatworksfellowship.blogspot.com/
May the good Lord bless you and all yours greatly. “For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which you have shown toward His Name, in that you have ministered to the saints, and do minister” (Heb. 6:10).
Your because of Calvary Cross,
Rev. Goh Seng Fong (John 12:24)
