His Generation : 4th September 2009

Lessons on the book of Proverbs..

Hola dudes. Last friday worship session was lead by Chrsitina. Thanks for the wondeful time of worship. Musicians were June, Kent, Andy, Ivan and Chester. Thanks for playing^^. After the wroship session, we prayed for all His Generation alumni. We also collected offerings. Soon, we prayed for Wei Qin and Jeremaiah who are taking UPSR examination. Pls do pray for them and for the form 5 & 6 students.

Soon, pastor preached on the book of Proverbs. Guess what? This book really open my eyes. Its all about knowledge and the fear of the Lord. In Proverbs 1:2, the word wisdom is the ability to use knowledge to solve problems. It teaches bout having self-controll and discipline. We really need this to understand sayings with deep meaning. In verse 3, (for acquiring a disciplined and prudent life) Prudent here means wisdom to live discipline and successful life. We'll learn what is right and wrong. So we can make a good decision in everything we're doing. It also teaches us to be honest(very important). This is to ensure we dont cheat or lie in any situation. Fair is inculded too. We should be fair to everyone, but how? Think for yourself guys =)

Verse 4, so from these, an ordinary person like me and you all can learn to be smart. When we are smart, we wouldn't mess up our lives. This will help us to endure our hardship in this earth and in the end, we can say this " I have run this race well, I have keep my faith strong, Here I am waiting to see you Father". Young people can gain knowledge and good sense. Eg: "I had decided to do this for the following reasons..." , "he seems like a nice guy but i think he's only trying to impress me". This can help us to make a right choice and prevent us from falling into traps.

Verse 5, For those who are already wise, reading proverbs will make u even wiser. Verse 5-6, Let those with understandings receive guidance by exploring the meaning in these proverbs and parables, the word of the wise and their riddels. Guidence is really important in our walk with God and making decisions. We need to ask God to guide us in every area of our lives to make good decisions. Its really important. So those who need guidance, please pray hard^^.

Verse 7, So how do we start being wise? What are you going to do? Do you want to be a fool? Only fools reject wisdom and good advice. So what are you waiting for? Lets start being wise by Respecting and obeying God. Remember guys, keep his commandments safe.

After the sermon, we have prayed for the fear of the Lord to be in us. Then we sang a worship song and went out for dinner. Thanks guys for the great fellowsip at Mac Donalds^^
