Our Faith rest.....

St Paul said our our faith is to rest not in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.

God had said many years He will enlarge my tent and give me the wealth of distant lands (Isaiah). I am investing in China and starting our project there. God has gone before us. Sure many have failed in the past, but when God has gone ahead of us to cut through the gates of bronze and walls of steel, we will succeed as long as we abide in Him.

Of course we have the best lawyers, connections etc but our faith is not in them, but in the power of God. God the Father is my Chairman, Jesus is my CEO and the Holy Spirit is my COO. I have the best people in my board! Amen.

Making a living

A famous US President once said, "The world does not owe us a living, but only the opportunity to make a living".

The guy in this picture earned >US$600,000 in the last 8 months or so in a MLM. He was very poor and he had to sell newspaper in the streets to put himself through school and college. When he came out to work he did business and when things went bad, he became a chauffeur while still striving it out in the MLM business.

Auckland

I once read in an in-flight magazine and they advertised New Zealand - "Where God Got it right!" for its breathtaking beauty, landscape and sceneries.

But the economy is sluggish, people are leaving as they cannot make ends meet. The shopping malls are empty and a lot of factory lots are for lease or for sale. So I wonder who got it wrong here? God or man?

Education

Everywhere we travel we notice that hospitals and schools were named after many saints. For instance St.Luke's hospital in Philippines, St.John's Hospital, Wesley College, St.Marks' High School etc, even in China, Malaysia, etc.

It was the church who set up schools in most countries. The Bible says "the lack of knowledge destroys my people". So education is important on God's agenda. Harvard, Oxford and Cambridge Universities all grew out as an extension of Sunday schools.

It was the church who blessed many nations. Notice where there is a church, they will be a school or a hospital nearby ie. Assunta Church, Hopsital and Assunta Secondary School.

Standing firm in Christ

I have always said in my business that Jesus is my CEO, my heavenly Father the Chairman and the Holy Spirit is my COO.

We are to fear God, not men, even though we are to respect them. We are to root our business deeply in God, not man, our main client or financier. Because if your business is deeply rooted in God, those who work with you will be blessed, and they will continue working with you. God will bless those who bless you and curse those who curse you. Even if man closes the door on you, God will always open other doors for you! He is the CEO!

Man can take away all the contracts from me, but God will have his solutions. Yes we may go through some tough times, but then which parent, earthly or heavenly, does not want his child to grow up through mistakes and experiences, rather than to spoil the child.

God is the architect of my success, not man. Therefore I do not trust in the promises of wealth and contracts from politicians, tycoons and business associates.

Some clients may think that it is because of their support I can do well. I have 3 big clients which I respect and have good friendship with. But it is not them who arranged for me to go to medical school, to develop my skills in various MNCs, and to have contacts in Switzerland, Australia, China and New Zealand, but God.

 

Remember this when you sign your cheque!

There is only one true God, just like we only have one true biological mother and one true biological father. There can be many god-parents, foster parents, but we only have one set of true biological parents.

Likewise there is only one true God! Jesus said "I am the way, the truth and the life. No one goes to the Father but through me". Either it is the truth or a lie. There is no in between. Jesus was here as everyday we sign a cheque we testify to that. Today is 15, May ,2008 AD(after death), because 2008 years ago, 5 months and 15 days ago Jesus was here. So what Jesus said is either the truth or the biggest lie in the world. There is no in between. Either you parents are your biological parents or they are not. There is no in between.

Likewise, if you have kids, then your kids are truly from your genes or they are not. If they are adopted, no matter how much you love them, they are not your biological offspring.

Think about it! Why not call this year 5303 instead of 2008? It is because Jesus was here 15 days, 5 months and 2008 years ago!

Pearl River

I took this photo while our vehicle was crossing the Pearl River on a ferry into Guangzhou city.

My roots are from the Guangdong province and this province has over 100 million people.

Look at the air quality. How are the athletes going to run in the Olympics? I pray that God will send the pollution away with winds or rain etc. Whatever maybe, I am proud that China is hosting the Olympics.

Acknowledging the Source

I have to admit I am not perfect. But God does not wait for us to be perfect or a goody goody before He bless us.

God sees us as He sees Jesus. We are a sweet aroma before Him as Jesus is our burnt offering. Before God we are spotless as we are covered with favor and we don't get what we deserve but what Jesus deserves.

I believe as long as we acknowledge the Source of our blessings we will continually be blessed by Him in our businesses, life and finance.

Yes Lord, You are Jehovah Jireh, my Provider.
Amen.
