Sis Vivienne's Testimony on Samuel Lim Jeng Xian
=================================================================================
When Jeng Xian fainted at school, Frank & Jo felt the need to send their son for medical tests and through the tests he was diagnosed with Aplastic Anemia - low blood count below any normal blood count and the bone marrow was not actively producing white and red blood platelet. During that period he was admitted for observation at SJMC and subsequently was administered with serum recommended by his doctor (Dr Lin). We remembered when we visited him at the hospital it was his first night for the treatment & observation, Ps Loh & I recalled Jeng Xian was normal energetic, playful, full of life & was cheerful in spirit. The second night after the serum treatment was administered the lively atmosphere was no longer felt but all we could see was lifelessness in the boy that overcome by pain he had to endured would just break our hearts. It was the beginning of the trauma. We could only pray in the Mighty name of our Lord Jesus Christ commanding the pain to leave and seek the Lord to heal him completely. When he was discharged, nightly we were at their home to pray for him and throughout those nights and days he was complaining of bad headache experience that flow from the treatment and medication. You could see the discomfort he had to go through during the time he was in and out of the hospital due to other infections. The doctor who prescribed horse serum recommended rabbit serum because the horse serum was not sufficiently effective to normalise the condition. Helplessly, Frank and Jo went along with the doctor’s recommendation and advice in hope to see their son’s recovery. Particularly in one evening when we went to the hospital knowing that he was re-admitted, it was unusually uncomfortable and sensed he was in a state of semi-unconsciousness despite his sister and brothers calling on to him there was no responses from him we knew something was wrong with his condition although the nurses whom attended to him didn’t realised if there was anything wrong with him. We asked Jo where is Frank? She mentioned that he would be here soon and just that minute Frank walked in and immediately attended to check on Jeng Xian. He too realised something was amissed and immediately demanded a CT scan to be conducted on his son. The scan on his brain revealed the virus had invaded his brain resulted in a stroke which affected his right brain.
Those were trying months for the Lim's family. Prayers from friends, cell members, pastors, church members, intercessors were mobilized and support was extended from the church. He was laid in the ICU for a month and throughout that time prayers were held at the hospital corners and waiting rooms. As leaders and friends to the family, the bible mentioned if one part of the body suffers the rest of the body also suffers with them. But we saw the Lord’s miracle at work in Jeng Xian’s life how the Lord brought him back from almost close to death. The doctor‘s negative pronouncement were cast out in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth and daily visitation were prayers of decreeing “LIFE” over Jeng Xian. When he was finally transferred from ICU to a normal ward we praise and thank God for His miracle touch over this precious life. Through the prayers of the saints from the Pastors, church members, intercessors, outreach churches of New Life the unity of believers has brought forth miracle healing process over Jeng Xian now is called Samuel (How he got his name will be left to his dad to share). All glory to the Lord. It was one hurdle after another. When he was finally home with his family his left side was semi-paralyzed. It was such a frustrating time for a young 12 years old boy who was unable to move part of his body. Being in such a state especially the child who loved sport like football (fan of Manchester United) could not move part of his body was indeed very devastating. As usual daily prayer was the only hope. Many of us have done our part to encourage the young lad. Hospital has assigned a physiotherapist to visit him every other day, and help from church member’s dad who goes daily to help him with the Chinese therapy. We could see some signs of improvement physically but his bone-marrow was then not functioning normal even after undergone the horse & rabbit serum therapy. The Lord was good and brought an angel to help the family. During the period when he was still in ICU God sent an angel in amidst of crisis, a Muslim doctor who in a way have contributed to Samuel‘s recovery. (Leave the part to Frank and Jo to continue from there). Like we mentioned it was hurdle after hurdle and at one time the boy was plagued with evil spirit which we believed may have entered his body when he was in coma. Frustration was one of the contributing opening whereby the spirit uses him to give us all a hard time and deliverance was conducted in a short period of two weeks but found no headway. Only through the Wisdom of God that was given, only his Dad (Frank) the headship over his household, a believer has the authority over the spirit of lies, deception and lust that came over his child. From thereon Frank uses the authority in the mighty name of Jesus we believed drove out the demons and the work of darkness could no longer operate or manifest itself in the child and left. To us our faith has risen to another level to know our Lord reign through all circumstances. It had been a challenging time but in His NAME – the NAME OF JESUS CHRIST the sick are healed, demons are cast out, mute speak and blind eyes see and the dead are raise to life. We have witness the works of GOD’S MIRACLE and Samuel Lim Jeng Xian is a display of His sovereign MIRACLE. PRAISE THE LORD. Today he’s back on his feet doing almost any normal activity a child would love doing And he has grown into a fine young man tall handsomely built like his brothers.

Letter from Brian (Australia)
"With the grace of God, family is fine. Joyce flew off late Wednesday and I just received an email from the church that they have landed safely y'day and they have water and electricity at the moment. Hallelujah; don't we take for granted with simple things like this. I am suppose to fly on 31.10.09 but I have not apply for my visa nor book my flight. Anyway will be having my vaccination & going to the Indian Consulate on Monday. No stress.
If all goes well I will be in New Delhi from 1.11 - 22.12. When you see Frank let him know his vision comes true because in one of our cell meeting he said he, Choong, Carin and some others in India. Well, I will be there, so the others can start packing for their calling."
So Brothers and Sisters in Christ, get ready to fly off to India lah..........Hallelujah, Praise the Lord. GB.

Denominations - What's The Purpose Of It?
As Casey was browsing through the web, stumbled upon this blog and was reading some of the comments made by the readers. I managed to browse through one or two and I did not even want to read further.
I wonder if we as "Children of God" really understand the meaning of it. Here we are supposedly spread the Good News/ Gospel which is commanded by Jesus, we are bickering among ourselves about denominations - Catholics, Baptist, Methodist ....
The thing is...does it make any difference? If I am a Baptist, Methodist, Protestant or a Catholic...does it make me holier if I am any of the above denomination?
The truth is, we are all the same - "SINNERS" and without Jesus, we are sinners without any hope of salvation. I really praise God for missionaries like Guy Peh, Thomas Cheng, Bernard Hull and others to teach, to spread and to preach the true goodness of God The Father, God The Son, God The Holy Spirit so that we are reminded who we are and what we stand for.

Mr. Peter Tan I understand your frustration but your post just made things worse and I suggest those "holier than thou" so called Christians to go back and be more spirit filled before they want to even pray for someone. Just because he is a "Catholic" you think he does not deserved to be prayed for? Anyway, the blog on that topic is a good example of "flesh" pretending to be "Spirit". The brother who said such things to Mr. Peter Tan, well, I have to say brother, you just gave the devil another gateway to create more confusion, thank you very much.

Continue to uphold Michelle's mum in your prayers
Dear bros n sis,
Must thank all of you for upholding my mum. Really appreciate it. The
X-ray showed that the spinal vertebrae was affected, meaning that the
fall caused compression on the nerve. She is now on medication but
because of her age, healing will not be be so fast. But nevertheless,
we'll trust our good Lord to speedily heal her. Thanks again. Actually
I meant to put on the blog, but due to my age, I've forgotten how to
do it, hehehe
Regards
michelle
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Not to worry, we know that God will answer to our prayers and your Mum will have a speedy recovery and will back to her pink of health very soon. Hallelujah. Praise the Lord.
