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.<\/p>\n<p>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&#8217;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 &#8211; 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&#8217;s beauty and perfection, we release fresh flows of His life within us.<\/p>\n<p>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<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>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).
