I suffered from a menstruation disorder last year which caused me to bleed more than usual. It was a really tiring, dreadful and painful experience.

At first, I did not want to see a doctor because I wanted supernatural healing. But three months passed and I did not experience healing. I finally decided to see a doctor. I was fearful so I prayed before I went. The doctor did not give me any specific reason for the disorder. I was worried yet I still clung on to the hope that God will deliver me from this. If He could deliver me from my past problems, He could do it again. I partook of the Holy Communion daily, as I would do for my meals. But I realised that I had made partaking of the Holy Communion a formula, and I was partaking of it without a revelation.

At one of the Sunday services, Pastor Gabriel shared a testimony about a lady who was healed of a pain in her neck after practising the love of God for her. It was then that I caught the revelation that God heals out of love, not because of what we do. I began to tell myself how much God loves me and to bask in His love for me. I started to meditate on scriptures on God’s love and healing.

Two days later, I went to see the doctor again. I did not know why the doctor did not give me a thorough check-up. Instead, he asked me to finish two days’ worth of medicine. Since then, I have been healed! I was really thankful that I could spend Chinese New Year in peace, knowing that Jesus is indeed our Healer and bread of life. I am so thankful that God healed me just because He loves me. Praise God!

During the first Zone service of the year, Pastor Benjamin did a detailed look at the message for the year by Pastor Prince—a year of His crowned goodness, taken from Psalm 65:11 which says that, “You crown the year with Your goodness, and Your paths drip with abundance.”

“Goodness” in Hebrew means “good in the widest sense”, while “abundance” means “to anoint”. Pastor Benjamin proclaimed that God was going to stretch our year to the widest sense, filling it with His goodness! Also, God was going to anoint our path and anoint us in special ways, such as new anointings and giftings, like we’ve never imagined before, all for His glory!

I began seeing how God’s prophetic word for the year is so encouraging and exciting. As the verse says “Your paths drip with abundance”, the reference to God’s paths shows how they are paths He has walked on before. This means that He has gone before us in 2011 and assures us that our year is crowned and surrounded with His goodness and abundance!

Praise God that this promise is neither conditional nor requires our self-effort. No, God’s work is complete and finished for the year. We do not have to earn or work for our good year ahead. All God is telling us is to hop onto His path and follow Him, for He has gone before us and said it is good!

John 19:1–3 tell us how Jesus had a crown of thorns, put on His head by the Roman soldiers, which He bore at Calvary. This means that today, we don’t have a crown of thorns, but a crown of God’s goodness surrounding us! Jesus bore humiliation and shame on the cross, redeeming us completely from it, so that we can fully receive the royalty and priesthood God has crowned us to enjoy the goodness and abundance of 2011!

Today, let us boldly claim all that God has in store for us this year. Let us stay close to our Daddy and follow Him on His paths, walking the road dripping with abundance and crowned with goodness!

Would you live the life of rest and be free of stress? As we live in a modern and fast paced society, it is easy to be caught up in so many things that we feel stressed and burnt out. Even among colleagues and friends, stress is often tagged in their conversations. I hear my colleagues talk about how stressed they are with upcoming projects and have even seen friends share about how stressed they are on social networks like Facebook. It is almost as if, it is normal to have stress. Indeed to the people of the world, stress is something that is part and parcel of their daily lives and they accept it as a norm. Sadly there are even believers who believe so.

Living our lives stressed out and in strife is not the best that our Daddy God has for us. Just because the world lives in stress doesn’t mean that we have to. God is our Heavenly Father and the blood of Christ runs in us. His Word says that we are as Christ is and that means we have a life that is higher than that of the people in the world.

Perhaps we are looking at the many responsibilities of our lives and conclude that living a life free of stress is for
