Dr Johann Melchizedek Peter

As always the night before my Singapore trip is an all night work night. One day I would need to have this organized a bit better. For now I will do my best to answer all emails. I will still answer all emails but by dictation in future 🙂 Takes longer for me to type than to speak. Unlike other ministries, I do enjoy answering them personally; have always done this in the past and still doing it today, so apologies for those whose emails took time to be answered personally.

17th day of the fast, it is almost half way through. How time has passed. Not able to retain 100% liquid as I still have to go about some activities that sap a lot of energy. After all night prayer, I feel spiritually energized even after the morning nap but by evening, I had to take some peanuts to strengthen myself. If I am all isolated without any activities and ministry, it would be possible to be 100% liquid but where there is a need for more energy, just some extra peanuts and soya bean will do. (We shall definitely not make this a peanut and soya bean feast ;-)). I enjoyed a good time of prayer the past few days. The word always flows better when fasting than when with a full stomach. This series of teachings done in a fast are going to be unique. Of course, most other times, I am already on a fasted life which means that there is normally nothing eaten too close to ministry time. I was glad to read that a number of other ministries are also enjoying a time of fasting, too. This will be a good thing for the next generation.

A lot of wonderful things are going to happen this year for those who love the Lord with all their hearts. Peering into the future from the vantage point of the Spiritual realm is exciting. While there may be shakings in the natural realm, there will be the land of Goshen for those in the Lord. The spiritual anchor is liken to the ship’s anchor which keeps a boat steadfastly moored in a storm; with the exception that it is moored spiritually upwards in God rather than downwards in the waters. How many times does the epistles ask us to look upwards in Christ. We are seated with Him in the heavenly places and we are to look to things above and not beneath. The proper place for the spirit man is in heaven in Christ and not on earth. Earth is the place where our spiritual man puts on a suit to enter into this earth atmosphere (the suit being the physical body). From time to time, we need to surface and breathe the real air of the spiritual heavens. It is our default place and home. It has been so easy to rise to the heights of heaven after the spiritual encounters like some sort of a tuning done to the spirit man once it has has experienced heaven. As I write this, the Spirit came upon me again and draws me upwards (so the pause). This intensity of light is so glorious but I do find the spiritual eyes adjusting to them. I see visions of ships (old and new) ocean liners and all kinds of vessels. The old are being collected and drawn away and the new ones launched. It is a symbolic vision. The ocean is calm but there is a sense of a coming storm. The calm before the storm. I see in the distance an angry looking cloud, menacing but prevented from drawing near. Behind me are a host of angels with great light. The two forces clash over the oceans and the angels, of course, win but the old ships are lost and gone. Suddenly, the storm clears and it is the most beautiful scene; the loveliest ocean view with myriads of beautiful colours of the sea. Grand ocean liners flow in synchrony to the furthest oceans. Who are these ships? They are the people, the nations, the businesses, the ministries – all varied and diverse; small sailings onese, giant liners, all representative of the diversities of humans, entreprises, ministries and nations large and small. This year is a spiritual battle that is foreordained from of old. The spiritual clash that must come. Its side effect on the natural world are the uphearvals of nature and entreprises and ministries and nations. It is like the old clashing of empires in the time of Daniel when Gabriel went forth to strengthen the kings of Persia but fought the prince of Persia (Daniel 10:13, 20; 11:1 – the prince and the kings are two different entities, one spiritual and the other humans). A great spiritual battle took placed in the time of Daniel during the changeover of empires; the same is beign wrought out in the spiritual realm over the whole earth. It is a war zone in the Spiritual realm above the earth. Spiritual wickedness in high places do not give up their thrones easily but they must for the time has come for changes to take place this year.

Papa God, in the fullness time you have brought all of us to the place where you want us to be; some in one country and some in another, some in cities and some in the fields. Your positioning of your church is such that it is ready for the next phase. We continue to pray for all our loved ones, friends and partners in the ministry, students and church members that you would brign all to the right geographical place, the right physical place, the right spiritual place, the right fellowship, the right partnerships that each may find their destiny in you. Thank you for the work of Your Spirit and the power of the Holy Spirit that You release now in the last days. Thank you for Your angelic armies that march forth to possess new territories in the spiritual heavens. Let Your divine secret place of the Most High b

The past few days past like a blurr as I concentrated on the fast. Today (15th) is the twelveth day of the fast. Have lost about 4 to 5 kilos but still having some strength to exercise after taking some fruit smoothies. Having interesting visions and dreams. These always increases each time I fast so it is quite normal. But some things God reveals might take time to understand and digest. This fast is going to be a powerful fast for those who partake of it. It is the season of revival and visitation and this fast can only increase our receptivity to God. For those who are fasting remember the basics:

(1) A fast is basically a surrender to the Lord and not a demand made of God. (2) A fast is a humbling of oneself before God. (3) A fast is a method of repentance before God. (4) A fast is the putting down of the flesh so that the spirit man can take ascendancy in our lives. (5) A fast is an opportunity to spend more time with God without the flesh coming into the picture.

Visions and dreams increase in most people during times of a fast. We need to take note of the messages that come through them. They are not perceived intellectually but rather received spiritually. There should be no attempts at interpreting them but rather let the message be formed and stand out on its own. There can be continuation type of dreams and visions that take place during a prolong forty day fast. It helps to take notes and write them down. The impressions and messages received during a fast are usually very important. This, of course, does not mean that every message or impression of the fast is important for part of it could be self-awarness analysis and healing-type dreams and visions. Once we are completely cleansed (John 15:3) then we are ready for the true messages of God. It takes sometimes the first part of a prolong fast to cleansed ourselves of our own thoughts, ideas, desires, ambitions, dreams, visions and plans. It takes time for those who have never fasted before to empty the trash can of our heads, emotions, desires and hearts. I know that Jesus has cleansed all of us with His precious blood. So this is more in reference to the application of His blood and Word into our lives then our own self cleaning. Truly only the pure in heart shall see God (Matthew 5:8). The same Greek word for ‘pure’ (from the root word ‘katharizo’) is used in John 15:3 when Jesus said that His Word has made them clean. Obviously this cleansing and purification takes time for we are told in Hebrews 4:12 that the Word (logos) of the Lord is sharper than a two edged sword separating spirit and soul. It is during the fast that we can put aside the needs of our flesh and body and examine the areas that lie between our spirit and soul. Most of the time when we eat three hearty meals a day, we are only conscious of our inner life and our body. Only in a deep fast can we differentiate between the levels of inner life – spirit consciousness and soul consciousness.

I am looking forward to the all night prayer tonight.

Papa God, we continue to fast and pray for all our loved ones, friends and partners in the ministry, students and members of Your church that during this time, we would all recieve an inner cleansing of our hearts, spirits and souls. Let the cleansing be so deep that we can truly hear the voice of God and see God. Reveal your self during this time of fasting and consecration to each one. In Jesus Name. Amen.

On 6th January, landed in Singapore in the early evening and had a look at the church new premises and also fellowship with a fruit juice drink as we were all on a forty day fast. On 7th January, managed to select the carpets for the new premises and also began exegetical teaching in the night seminars. There is a need for exegetical teaching especially in many churches as most teaching from pulpits are topical. Only exegetical teaching (line by line, word by word, verse by verse) can get people into the love of the written word of God. It is harder than topical preaching as it requires personal study of the passage and Bible plus one cannot go to far away from the context of the passages. It is an important spiritual diet that every pastor of a local church must aspire to to teach the whole counsel of God. Many Christians are not reading their Bible regularly because they do not yet see the beauty of every word, line and Scripture. It is the inspired Word of God and our modern church must value this. Men and women have given their lives to have the Bible freely available to us today. Let us treasure the inheritance of the written Word of God that has been bequeathed to us from previous generations.

The Bible remains the source of all our doctrine, practices and plumbline for correction of theology and understanding of God (2 TImothy 3:16). Without the Word of God, the Spirit of God cannot work for the Spirit of God is also the Spirit of Truth. Jesus was and is the Word made flesh. Man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God (Matthew 4:4). Without the Word, this present world will not have existed. All things are framed by the Word of God (Hebrews 11:3). Faith can come only by hearing and hearing by the Word of God (Romans 10:17). Jesus promised that those who love Him and His Words will bear fruit (John 15:7; 14:14, 21). We need to cultivate within ourselves a love of the Word of God. It is food for our daily lives. God’s words produce the thought energies that we need each day for our thought life to be sustained in the mind of Christ.

Papa God, we continue to pray that You would create in our hearts and minds, in the lives of all our loved ones, friends and partners in the ministry, students and members of Your church a supernatural love for the Word of God. Let this hunger for Your Word be liek that of a hunger for food so that we cannot live without

Started the 40 day fast early on 3rd January. Will still fast through to 13th Feb. The fast has been fairly easy and I look forward to having good times with the Lord. On January 3rd, preached the New Year message in Sydney and will share it again in Singapore this Saturday. On 4th January, has my first fast smoothie to keep up the energy. Look forward to the whole of the forty day fast.

The earth is in turmoil as seen in the recent volcanic activities and earthquakes. Indeed, the dream vision of the sinking islands point to a tumultuous year 2010. This is the calm before the storm. A lot of energy is in the air like a tinderbox waiting for the spark. For the believer, it will be a year of visions and endings and beginnings as the changing of the guard gets completed (the old guard giving way to the new guard). In this life, there is no real ending only the new beginning at every ending. The final ending is with Christ’s second coming. Thus we will see the end of some things and the beginning of new things like the changing of the seasons. Some things will end this year (2010) and in its place new things will take root. There may be a period of chaos during the transition but it is all under control by God who permits and foresaw this changes. In a time of change, the most important thing is to stay rooted to fundamentals – word, prayer, worship, etc. For those who have been faithful and waiting on the Lord, this season of change will be the launch of new things. I purposely use the word ‘launch’ rather than new beginnings as there is a preparation and prior beginning before launch – there is a framework already in place before a launch can take place. For those who have already prepared their boat and framework, this year will be the launch of that boat or ship. It is the season to launch into things that have been in the back burner being tested and established but now ready for the limelight.

As we look forward to this new year, we continue to pray and fast for all our loved ones, friends and partners in the ministry, students and members of God’s church that God would cause this year to be a mighty fruit bearing year. The tree has been planted, it is now ready for the firstfruits. Papa God, we pray and lift up all our loved ones, friends and partners of the ministry, students and members of Your church that they be rooted and grounded in the love of God (Ephesians 3) and that they all may bear fruit in this year of great changes. Stabilize all of them in Your embrace of love and cause the power of Your Spirit and Your works predestined from before the foundation of the earth to be manife

26th Dec – Just returned to Sydney from Singapore to enjoy a Sydney Christmas with turkey at the church; 27th Dec – Had a day of rest; 28th Dec – went with several Sydney church people to the new premises to look into the sound system and other things; 29th Dec and 30th Dec – catch up on some correspondence and church work.

31st Dec – Had a wonderful day of fast and prayer the whole day. Had a few cups of water. At night between 8pm to 12 midnight we had church members came for the prayer watch. Lovely night ending with the communion.

1st January – Open house in Sydney. Had a wonderful fellowship time with Sydney church people as they all came and cooked some meals and played some wii games together. Enjoyed talking about the importance of family and relationships with each person sharing their background. Ended that evening with a long two hour walk along the bushlands.

2nd January – Looking forward to a short trip to Blue mountains (one hour drive) with Amy and Lindy (Canberra intercessor). Have never been there and would look forward to the nature view (talk to the trees and see how they are :-)). Will look forward to coming back and finishing off Fatherly Talk and also all the rest of the correspondence.

I have been meditating on the New year message that is usually delivered on the first preaching at the beginning of the year outlining the year’s outlook. So far the Lord has shown some interesting dreams and visions. One of them that I do not have full understanding yet (takes time for the interpretation) is a dream of islands and an energy oil rig being swallowed by the sea. I have been asking God about the outlook for the year 2010 and this has many possible interpretations and I will speak of them when I have completed analyzing the interpretations from the biblical perspective. I don’t think that they are literal as the time has not yet come for seas levels to be at such levels (although there are visions given long ago from the spiritual world perspective of what the world looks like in the millenium and the borders of land mass are different from what they are today, with much of the sea levels higher than what it is today. All these could be a slow process or a sudden envelopment as I did not see how that took place but only the future existence of land mass). Certainly, in the year 2010 we will see some interesting times – much changes and dramatic shifts – some of them shocking and unexpected while others are predictable. Will be preaching on this in Sydney and Singapore on what we can expect in the year 2010.

Papa God, we thank you for Your goodness to all of us and Your great mercies shown. We continue to pray for all our loved ones, friends and partners in the ministry, students and members of Your church that Your goo

Just came back from the church camp (24th) today and back in Singapore. Looking forward to enjoying Christmas in Singapore. Will be going down to Orchard Road Christmas eve to see what Christmas is like here. Had a good camp and all the messages will be on the internet soon. Managed to provide some practical aspects of dreams, visions and interpretations in the camp.

We greet each of those reading this blog a Blessed Christmas and a Spirit-filled new year. We all know that the origins of Christmas is pagan but it is a public holiday and a good time to sing carols about the coming of Christ to the earth. In the Spiritual World there is also an increase in activities as the angels and ministering spirits go about the earth where people tend to want to do good deeds and help the poor and needy this season. Like the book of Romans say, some celebrate the Sabbath and some do not, others eat vege only while others eat everything – to each who live according to their conscience and do it unto the Lord it is acceptable to the Lord (Romans 14). Of course, there are always those who abuse the holiday season for profit making but overall there is some desire for peace and good tidings in the air which the spiritual world takes to place upon humanity a greater sense of doing good to one’s fellow human being.

Not being from a Christian background (I was born again and the first in my family to come to know Christ) we have never known the joy of celebrating Christmas. It was very strange the first time Christmas came around as a new believer but the time that I really got into the joy of the occasion was when we first open our homes to church members in the late 1980s while in Malaysia. It was such a wonderful time that we had meeting up with church people who visited the home and the whole Christmas day we had a stream of people going in and out of the home. What a joy to enjoy the hospitality of having people come to the home. I remember that Christmas as we came to midnight, there was such joy in having met the people.

At the church camp, I enjoyed the opportunity to meet up with individuals and families, hearing each story and testimony, listening to the pains, struggles and ups and downs of each person. It helps me a lot to hear so that each time when I minister the word of God, I would do my best to find practical applications to help each person and family. It is good to seek to relate the application of the Word of God to the real problems that people are facing day by day. This would be true Christianity the way Jesus meant it to me.

Papa God, we pray that You would let Your Spirit of encouragement to be upon all our loved ones, freidns and partners of the ministry

In the midst of a church camp training on Dreams, Visions, Prophecies and Interpretation. The place where we are having the camp is a resort in Johor Bahru (my home town). Took two hours out to meet members of my physical family (mother, brother, sisters, etc.). Had a good time and look forward to helping those present with connecting to the Spiritual realm.

Much of the training in our education revolved around the intellect (logic, memory, analysis and function). This train the left side of the brain but neglects the right side of our brain. Will be helping the camp participants with their soul/physical training area so that their brain and soul could be more sensitized to the spiritual aspects of their existence. God has made us spirit, soul and body (1 Thessalonians 5:23). It is important to have training in all these three aspects of our realities. This camp would be wonderful as I will be able to help the participants with techniques and methodologies that is still being refined to help the balance of spirit, soul and body consciousness. The Holy Spirit uses all the functions our spirit, soul and body to speak to us. The more ‘muscle training’ we have in these areas, the better we can flow with the Holy Spirit. This is just like swimming in water. We need the basic skill of swimming in order to be comfortable in water. There is a natural ability within us to float but the discomfort of the water can cause us react un-naturally to the water and the most basic re-active function when thrown into water (dog-pedal) is suspended without us even learning the rest of the type of swimming. SImilarly, there are basic functions of our soul and spirit that we need to feel familiar with so that we can yield better to the Holy Spirit.

Papa God, we continue to praise You and worship You from our spirits, souls and bodies; especially presenting our bodies as a living sacrifice. We ask that Your Spirit would continue to train all our loved ones, friends and partners in the ministry, students and members of Your church in the things of the Spirit. For we are here on earth to learn through this limited physical body the functions of the spirit man through a material body. Teach us, help us, we yield our all to You In Jesus Name. Amen.

Wow, the weekend has just passed by so fast with the series of meetings. Just finished the series of teachings on Prosperity through Grace and the Endtime series on Saturday. Getting ready for the church camp next week. Not sure if I can keep update next week online as I am uncertain of the internet facilities in the camp next week. Will try but depending on how much free time I get in the camp and also internet facilities. Will also try to work on the next Fatherly Talk in between. it is interesting to see how dependent we are on the internet for communication these days. If everything on earth is a shado of the things in the invisible realm, the internet would be like a physical manifestation of the thought and visual realm for it is the place where thoughts, words and pictures are hosted.

Everything on the physcial earth has its invisible equivalent (Hebrews 11:3). We all need to keep remembering that everything we see, feel and touch around us is but a shadow of the true reality beyond this physical. The things which are seen are temporary but the things which are not seen are eternal and the true reality (2 Corinthians 4:18). Sometimes that things which are seen are not the exact (in terms of shape and form) representative of its equivalent in the spiritual realm but its ideas and thoughts are expressed perfectly (as in the spiritual realm somethings do not have shape and form like in our dimensional world. Faith is the process by which we take what is in the spiritual and brings it into the visible realm (Hebrews 11:1). This ability to handle the DNA of matter and energy is given to every single one of us. However, God has withheld some of the manifestations of this power we have until we mature and grow as a human race in the love and holiness of God – otherwise we will destroy ourselves with such power. The key to tapping on this realm is the power of thoughts and visions. And this has to be sustained by the Holy Spirit and not just by our soul. One of the first things to do is to have mind that is pure and undefiled filled with the peace and love of God (Philippians 4:7-8). Be aware of every thought, every feeling and every vision for these are the three dimensions of words. This universe was made by the power of God’s spoken word. We shall be judged by every idle word which we speak (Matthew 12:36-37). Keep daily watch always over every word, thought and feeling and vision, in our conscious life. Consiousness is life and the consciousness must be directed the purest stream, which is our Lord Jesus Christ.

Papa God, let the flow of pure thoughts be mighty upon our hearts and lives, upon our loved

Arrived in Singapore yesterday after working through till 5am on 16Dec finishing up all the emails. Had a bit of rest on the plane and some rest last night.

Woke up to a nice cool cloudy day in Singapore with some drizzle, which is good as it helps to cool down the weather. Spoke of the things of the spiritual realm during fellowship time and of the activities preparing for some to be received from the natural life whose season has come to an end. There is a definite changing of the guard in the spiritual, economic, business, political and natural realm. We are in a season of change for the next move on this planet.

The Lord kept speaking of being a living sacrifice prepared to take on the new move of God – Romans 12:1-2. We are in a season where, as the old guard is being removed from the earth, the Lord is looking for a fresh group of people who will know Him and hear His voice. His eyes are running to and fro and looking into the hearts of those who love Him and seek to do His Will. It is a time to sign onto the new team that God is raising to change the planet earth. We sign on by presenting our spirit, soul and body to Him as a living sacrifice every day. It is then up to HIm to test us and search our hearts to see if we are of the calibre of recruit that He is gathering together. This is the season to spend much time waiting on God and praying unceasingly. Let us wait on the Lord (Isaiah 40).

Papa God, teach us to wait on You and sit quietly in Your presence. We bring this Spirit of waiting on You upon allour loved ones, friends and partners in the ministry, students and membe

Woke up early for the drive to Canberra (15th Dec) this morning and got back in time for the Leadership training at 7:30pm in Sydney (three hours drive each way = 6 hours of driving with prayer in tongues). Enjoyed the scenery as always. Will be leaving for Singapore tomorrow for a long trip that includes a church camp. Had good meeting with leadership training and fellowship ended towards 11pm.

The presence of God seems to be more intensified since the all night prayer and, of course, has been growing ever since the ministry started again this decade. As I ponder His presence, I realized that His presence has always been there but spiritual growth helps to activate or sense the presence of God better plust allow its manifest blessings to flow. Now it is even possible to feel God’s presence in all of His creation (the air, the water, the trees, the sunshine and stars, etc. etc.). Such presence has always been there but it is like the spiritual ear is not tuned to hear the softest whispers of the leaves, the lightest touch of the breeze, the air that one breathes. The sense of His harmony and energy flowing through all His creation is like music. One can yield to this energizing presence each day. His Word, of course, carries a tremendous powerful force when spoken and this presence seems to be manifested longer and deeper than before. In the heavens above, we are always surrounded by the presence of God and it is the life force of our spirits. In this life, the same takes place but we also receive indirectly the life force through natural foods. I spent some time in the car (while travelling) meditating on perfection. There is perfection in heaven and on this earth perfection does not exist as it should be. Yet in God perfection is the basis of all harmony – all imperfection is as sin in His sight. With God, nothing is imperfect. We can be as perfect as the image of Christ and God that we carry inside us. As we see, so are we. We need to be able to see the perfection of Christ within us and allow this perfection to flow through us. In perfection, there is perfect provision, perfect healing, perfect enjoyment in the presence of God. Nothing is wanting or lacking in the perfection in God. Perfection in God is now a gift in Christ to be grown into us. As we see, so are we; as we are, so we do. When we flow forth from actions that evoked the visions of Christ’s beauty and perfection, we release fresh flows of His life within us.

Papa God, we continue to pray that the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus without spot or wrinkle would cause us to be filled with the perfection of Christ. Let this perfection of Christ be upon our spirits, souls and bodie. Let this power of Your perfect grace be upon
