Ephesians 4:11-12 (NKJV) 11 And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, 12 for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ,
Donkey 1.
Numbers 22:23 (NKJV) 23 Now the donkey saw the Angel of the Lord standing in the way with His drawn sword in His hand, and the donkey turned aside out of the way and went into the field. So Balaam struck the donkey to turn her back onto the road.
God let Balaam go with King Balak’s messengers, but he was angry about Balaam’s greedy attitude. Balaam claimed that he would not go against God just for money [He said the right thing] but his resolve was beginning to slip. His greed for the wealth offered by the king blinded him so that he could not see how God was trying to stop him.
Though we may know what God wants us to do, we too can become blinded by our greedy desire for money, possessions, or status. We can avoid Balaam’s mistake by looking past the allure of fame or fortune to the long-range benefits of walking with God.
Balaam’s donkey saw clearly. Balaam’s donkey saved his life but was beaten for that.
The Prophet [blinded by greed] could not see.
Father we pray that you will enable us to see what you see like that Donkey who saw clearly and warned. We desire to warn and save lives. If there is greed, lust and pride in our hearts remove it Lord for it will blur our vision and we will not be able to see like the prophet Balaam.
Donkey 2.
Luke 19:29-31 (NKJV) 29 And it came to pass, when He drew near to Bethphage and Bethany, at the mountain called Olivet, that He sent two of His disciples, 30 saying, “Go into the village opposite you, where as you enter you will find a colt tied, on which no one has ever sat. Loose it and bring it here. 31 And if anyone asks you, ‘Why are you loosing it?’ thus you shall say to him, ‘Because the Lord has need of it.’ ”
This donkey became useful when released. This donkey carried Jesus into the city so that people can see Jesus and hear Jesus.
Amazing God's power at work through two donkeys.
Father I pray in Jesus Name that you will enable us to carry you like this Donkey to every city, town and village we go to and that the people will see Jesus and hear Jesus through our ministry.
Friends thanks once again for standing with us and sending us. Without you we will not be able to go and minister to the nations. Please pray for Paul Ong and I as we minister in Bangalore, Mumbai [India] and Nairobi [Kenya]. Vijaya will not be travelling with me in this trip.
Pray for our provision, protection and power to minister in all these places. Pray that we will be like the above 2 donkeys
1] To see clearly what is ahead of us so that we can warn the people of God.
2] To carry Jesus into all these cities so that the people will be able to see Jesus and hear Jesus.
There are 2 churches in Surabaya [Indonesia] that wants us to come over and bring the word of God. They are able to take care of our accommodation, food and love gift but not able to take care of our flight ticket. If you are able to take care of the 2 flight tickets please contact us. Thanks.
Friends, we are a faith ministry and when you are lead by God to give towards our living and ministry, please direct it to

Our Commitment to God and to the People of God
When I answered the call of God in June 1988, I resigned [gave the government 24 hours notice and gave them 1 months’ salary] -gave away my [and families medical, travel, retirement benefits. I sold my car [because the church (church was suffering from a poverty mentality) paid a low salary] and have to let go of my house [which I have bought and have not moved in -which was auctioned later]. I gave myself to the work of God and to serving my church. Our daughter who had all the potential to study [she did well in her studies] was not given a chance to go to University because we were serving God. [Any way Sarah is working hard and studying today using her EPF money]. We are still committed to build the people of God and finish the work and go home to be with HIM forever [I long to go home NOW but for the people sake I need to live impart what I have received from above.] If you think this is foolishness then bear with it please.
Friends, we are a faith ministry and when you are lead by God to give towards our living and ministry, [Please do not give because of pity, with guilt feelings BUT by faith, cheerfully, lovingly, continuously and consistent to Our God’s character] please direct it to

HE HIMSELF GAVE

Ephesians 4:11-12 (NKJV) 11 And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, 12 for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ,
Dear Friends,
If Jesus were to write letters to our local churches, what would He say? Usually He writes to the Church Elders / Messengers. What would He commend, condemn, correct, or challenge?
Before that happens
May I take the liberty that I have received from above to challenge the local church leadership?
If we want to grow healthy and strong [off course with all the challenges involved in growing] we need to receive the leadership of Jesus. First of all the Church belongs to Jesus, the Christ. The local church does not belong to the pioneering pastor, church planter or the church committee. If we accept Jesus leadership than we will receive His leaders that He has given to His Church.
Ephesians 4:11-12 (NKJV) 11 And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, 12 for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ,
Until today the local churches are being tossed to and fro. Why?
One reason is that the forth mention in the list above [the pastor] rules his flock with an iron fist. Because of fear of losing his position, and his control over his flock, he keeps his flock from other ministers and other meetings [in the name of protecting his flock]. He or she guard their pulpit from others [and ends up protecting their pulpit from God and His Servants].
The local church leaders need to receive the leadership of Jesus and receive ALL the five ministries given by Jesus [apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors and teachers]. Then the local churches will be equipped and edified and will be found doing the ministry of God. We will see the local churches united in the faith.
Ephesians 4:13 (NKJV) 13 till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to a perfect man, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ;
The leadership we have from above is a team leadership [Father, Son and Holy Spirit]. God desires to see that in His Church. A Team of leaders [with a set person (a visionary / spiritual father) leading the team] leading the local church. A team of leaders who are yielded to the leading of God.
Ephesians 4:14 (NKJV) 14 that we should no longer be children, tossed to and fro and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the trickery of men, in the cunning craftiness of deceitful plotting,

Pride keeps us blind and keeps away from God’s leadership. In the end the people of God suffer. Today I ask local church leadership to be accountable for God’s flock because ONE DAY you have to give an account for the flock that has been entrusted to you.

Proverbs 27:23 (NKJV) Be diligent to know the state of your flocks, and attend to your herds;

These leaders who are sent by Jesus might not be in the local church staff. This might be a requirement of men but not from God.
It is the responsibility of the local church to take care of God’s ministers [5 fold ministers mentioned in Eph 4:11]. Local church pastors might not highlight this because they need the finances for their welfare and their projects. BUT it is the responsibility of the church of Jesus Christ. If the church neglects this responsibility what do you think Jesus Christ will do when He returns.

Matthew 24:48-51 (NKJV) 48 But if that evil servant says in his heart, ‘My master is delaying his coming,’ 49 and begins to beat his fellow servants, and to eat and drink with the drunkards, 50 the master of that servant will come on a day when he is not looking for him and at an hour that he is not aware of, 51 and will cut him in two and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites. There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

The servant’s assignment was to be faithful in caring for the household of God and distributing food. Similarly, the priests and teachers had been given the assignment of caring for the people of Israel [including the prophets who were not staff of the temple (for example Jesus and His apostles)]. When they failed in their assignment and abused the members of God’s household, their punishment was severe.

Thanks for reading. Looking forward to seeing the Kingdom of God come fully among His People first.
