Best Wishes for the New Year

k11114356We are now in the 2nd week of the 2013. I take this opportunity to wish all CBSI class members in Malaysia a Blessed New Year. I pray that you have had a great Christmas and New Year. We welcome back all who have been away for the holidays and trust that your time with families and friends have been a blessing.

As we enter 2013, the Lord has assured me that this will be a year of increase, a year of obedience and a year of Blessings. Thus there will be a lot of waiting upon the Lord this year. We need to hear clearly His word and command for us, so that we can walk into the blessings he has in store for us.

His word for us this year is from Deuteronomy 30.11 says “nothing is too difficult or beyond your reach”

How comforting as we begin this New Year. May I ask you to covenant to pray for CBSI Malaysia that we will grow and be a blessing to the nation. Pray that when we encounter trials and hardships, these words “nothing is too difficult or beyond your reach” will be our portion from the Lord

A Blessed New Year.

Welcome to Our Regional Director

Asia Pacific is so so big

It was a privilege to have Ps. Peter Hanscamp with us at the PJ Class on Tuesday 10 July. Peter is on his annual visit to the classes in Malaysia. This is the time that he takes to discuss the growth and development of the classes with the National Director.

Rev Fred gave the summary lecture on John Chapter 8 entitled ” The Truth is Revealed in Jesus” The challenge for us in the 21st. century is to take the truth and apply it to our lives so that Jesus will be “The great I Am” in all situations.

After the lecture Ps. Peter Hanscamp shared the latest developments in CBSI and especially in the Asia Pacific Region. He emphasized that the area was so vast and yet it is our desire to see “Everyone in the world… in the World”

Peter will be co-training with Rev Fred 15 small group leaders on Wednesday 11 July at Life Sanctuary. Please pray for this training. Our pray is to raise more men and women to lead Bible study groups well.

God is at work

Happy Labour Day

For all PJ class members, please be informed that there will not be a class on Tuesday 1 May as it is Labour Day. Class will resume on Tuesday 8 May. Have a great Labour Day holiday.

Thinking of this, should not we put a greater emphasis on “Keeping Sunday, as the Lord’s Day.” If the world can recognise and set a day for all the workers in the world, should we not take the Lord’s Sabbath (Sunday) more seriously. Can I ask you to think of making your Sunday worship a priority this year. This will greatly set in motion the revival in our land.

We are all learners!

It will be good from time to time to remind your class that we are all learners. This will help the quiet and new member not to be intimidated. We are here to encourage them to engage with God’s word and the class discussion. Our ultimate aim is to make them confident in handling God’s word. They could be your future class leaders. See that they are comfortable. Find them a seat besides a member who is gentle and patience. In this way you will be caring for them. Remember , many who come to your class need and long for love. Shepherd them well.

Easter Break

The PJ and Bandar Utama Classes will take a short break for Passion Week and Easter. Classes will resume after Easter. Tuesday 10 April for the PJ Class and Friday 20 for the Bandar Utama Class.

Have a meaningful Passion Week

Exegesis for Small Group Leaders

Please pray with us as we try to hold this training for all Bible Study Leaders (SGLs). We see that this will greatly help our small group leaders to understand the text and be able to lead exciting discussions. This is also a way of growing our leaders to be mature and confident in handling God’s Word. Pray that we would be able to source the right person to lead in this seminar.

If you are interested in this area of Biblical studies, please let us know and we will be in touch with you once date and venue has been decided,
