“Perfect Prayer”
Written on: 9 August 2021
When I am lost for words
And don’t know how to pray
I can speak in tongues all day
This is the rest and refreshing.
“Holy Spirit, help me,” I say
“What now, I can’t see a way
Out of this mess
A terrible state”
“Hold on”, He says
“Don’t panic, just wait.”
“I will give you My words
A perfect prayer
Here it is
Born of love and care
Speak them forth
Let My power flow
Surely it knows where to go.”
“The night has ended
The victory won
That pain you felt
Is now long gone
I turned it around
Look and see
Restoration has come nigh to thee!”

Blessed National Day to my homeland, Singapore! This poem is dedicated to you on your 56th birthday.
In a tough time, we must stay united like our pledge says, “one united people. Regardless of race, language, or religion…”
Pray for our nation, that all who are going through difficult times will experience God’s great restoration. Even if you made foolish mistakes, God is still willing and able to restore you.
Pray in tongues if you can. The Holy Spirit will give you utterances which are perfect prayers offered at the right time. Let Him use your tongue to bring forth healing, strengthening, and comfort to all who need it.
I have an eBook about restoration if you are interested to read it. In the book, I share about God’s plan to prosper you in all things through His restoration. You can check out “All Things Made New” at this link: https://bit.ly/prosper-through-restoration

The Great Multitude in Heaven
“After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude, which no man could count, out of every nation and of all tribes, peoples, and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, dressed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands. They cried with a loud voice, saying, “Salvation be to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!” All the angels were standing around the throne, the elders, and the four living creatures; and they fell on their faces before his throne, and worshiped God, saying, “Amen! Blessing, glory, wisdom, thanksgiving, honor, power, and might, be to our God forever and ever! Amen.” One of the elders answered, saying to me, “These who are arrayed in the white robes, who are they, and from where did they come?” I told him, “My lord, you know.” He said to me, “These are those who came out of the great tribulation. They washed their robes, and made them white in the Lamb’s blood. Therefore they are before the throne of God, they serve him day and night in his temple. He who sits on the throne will spread his tabernacle over them.” (Revelation 7:9-15 WEB)
The passage above depicts the scene of the saints arriving in Heaven right after the Rapture.
The main confusion for most people here regarding the timeline of this event is because of the words “came out of the great tribulation”, making them think that it happens in the middle or end of the Tribulation.
However, I believe that the Rapture happens once the appointed time for the Tribulation begins.
Whether someone comes out of the Tribulation at the start, in the middle, or at the end of it does not matter—it is still coming out of the Tribulation.
Let me give you an example. Let’s say you go and watch a movie at a cinema. You did not like the movie immediately, so you left the cinema shortly after arriving. The fact is, you still came out of the cinema, even if it was at the start of the movie. Makes sense?
Additionally, the Tribulation saints who miss the Rapture and only believe in Jesus during the Tribulation will not receive salvation immediately, but only at the end of the Tribulation when Jesus returns. They have to endure to the end (without receiving the mark of the beast) to be saved.
Read the following passage which takes place after the Tribulation, at the start of the Millennial reign of Christ. It shows that the martyred Tribulation saints will only come alive again and receive eternal life after the Tribulation has ended:
“I saw thrones, and they sat on them, and judgment was given to them. I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for the testimony of Jesus, and for the word of God, and such as didn’t worship the beast nor his image, and didn’t receive the mark on their forehead and on their hand. They lived and reigned with Christ for a thousand years. The rest of the dead didn’t live until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.” (Revelation 20:4-5 WEB)
Jesus said the following words to the church of Philadelphia (all of them have fallen asleep since then):
“Because you kept my command to endure, I also will keep you from the hour of testing, which is to come on the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth.” (Revelation 3:10 WEB)
There is an hour of testing coming upon the whole world, which is the seven years of Tribulation, but it is not for the church. Jesus’ message is true for the church today as well. We will not be going through the Tribulation.
“But let us, since we belong to the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and, for a helmet, the hope of salvation. For God didn’t appoint us to wrath, but to the obtaining of salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ, who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him.” (1 Thessalonians 5:8-10 WEB)
We are not waiting for the Antichrist to appear. Instead, we are looking forward to Jesus’ return. We will obtain the last part of our salvation: the transformation of our mortal bodies into glorified bodies. Those who have fallen asleep will be raised from the dead first, and then we will all be transformed in the twinkling of an eye, to have immortal bodies that match our righteous spirits.
We are not appointed to go through the time of wrath. God knows how to separate the righteous from the wicked, just as He made a distinction between the children of Israel and the Egyptians during the ten plagues in Egypt. The children of Israel were preserved alive, and so were their flocks, but the Egyptians and their flocks suffered/died.
So do not fear—lift your head and confidently expect Jesus to return for us any day now!
Let me end off with a poem I wrote called “Jesus I Need You”. As you read, tune your heart to expect His imminent return. It is a hope that purifies you!
Jesus I’d be lost without Your love,
everyday would be so hard.
When things don’t go my way,
I fall into Your embrace,
I am forever Yours.
I can’t imagine life without You,
that would be Hell for sure.
I need grace and mercy that’s from You,
by myself I’m powerless.
Let me abide in the Vine,
I’ll hear of You and be fine.
Faith will rise—I’ll speak forth life,
fruitfulness is sure.
Take my hand and guide me through life,
I know you’ll never let me go.
With You I’ll walk on water,
we’ll rise above every power.
Lord Jesus,
you’ll catch me when I fall.
Amidst every trial,
You are there through it all.
I just want to see You,
I long for that perfect day.
Where we’ll meet in the clouds,
and I’ll see Your lovely face.

How to write and read Iroha | Japanese famous pangram poem | Learn Japanese
The Iroha (いろは) is a Japanese poem. Originally the poem was attributed to the founder of the Shingon Esoteric sect of Buddhism in Japan, Kūkai, but more modern research has found the date of composition to be later in the Heian period (794–1179). The first record of its existence dates from 1079. It is famous because it is a perfect pangram, containing each character of the Japanese syllabary exactly once. Because of this, it is also used as an ordering for the syllabary, in the same way as the A, B, C, D... sequence of the Latin alphabet.

[Update: HEY IDIOTS. IF YOU INSULT MY LOOKS THEN PROCEED TO TELL ME I SHOULDN’T INSULT ROSMAH FOR HER LOOKS YOU ARE NO BETTER THAN ME FUCKTARD. I HOPE YOU GROW SOME BRAINS ONE DAY OK?]
By popular demand I’ve transformed into Rosmah for Halloween! Posted a 2 second preview on Instagram and was shocked to see many people pissed off and asking me to respect Rosmah ? why the fuck would I respect crooked politicians you tell me?
I realized many of the angry comments are all saying the same old shit so I’ll answer them here:
“This is racist”
How on EARTH is this racist? Nobody is mocking all Malays, or all Malaysians. The subject here is only one nasty person. So I’m also racist against chinese because I did a Sun Ho makeup tutorial? Don’t be childish please. Singapore is half filled with Malays and Malaysians, many of them are my friends and I do not have a problem with either.
“This is rude”
No shit Sherlock I don’t see a need to be polite to Rosmah, whom I deem as a vile, evil person. If you want to know why I feel that way, you can feel free to read up on her wiki page: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosmah_Mansor additional bonus fun reads: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_of_Shaariibuugiin_Altantuyaa http://www.financetwitter.com/2018/08/jamaluddin-jarjis-rm2-billion-fortune-opens-up-a-can-of-worms-malaysia-has-at-least-two-hundred-billionaires.html
I’m supposed to be polite to her? Why? Would you be polite to hitler? Don’t be ridiculous
“How would you like it if someone did this to you/your mother?”
First up I’d be fucking honoured if someone dresses up as me for Halloween, it would mean I’m famous and iconic. Tag me in your photos if you do people! Secondly, funny you guys would bring up mothers. Rosmah’s own estranged daughter and son in law wrote long glowing articles about what a stellar person she is. NOT. You can read what Rosmah’s own daughter said about her. That poem still haunts me: https://thecoverage.my/news/rosmahs-daughter-sow-law-confession-evil-mother-torture-berhati-syaitan-berajakan-hantu/ so you ask me what I would feel if Rosmah were my mom? I’d disown her as Azrene did. And nobody would mock my mother because she didn’t (allegedly) steal millions of dollars and spend it on opulent luxuries. If she did, I’d say she deserves it.
“You look like Rosmah already”/“you will look like her in future”/“mcm Babi”
Ok sure lol
“Mind your own business Singaporean”/“why don’t you do LKY? Scared right?”
Don’t be juvenile Rosmah is internationally well known anyone can talk about her, she doesn’t belong to you Malaysians to discuss ? And I won’t do a LKY look because I respect him. Not because he is a Singaporean or Chinese but because he made Singapore what it is today and he isn’t corrupt ??♀️
“I don’t like Rosmah either but you shouldn’t mock how people look like”
Usually I’d agree with that but hey did Rosmah care about the feelings of Malaysians when she (and Najib) allegedly embezzled money? If no why must you care abt her feelings when people discuss her face? Please lah before my video her face was mocked by widespread memes of her face put next to the Snow White witch, y’all Malaysians call her Hippo etc etc. My video is just one among the thousands of insults abt her face. The hypocrisy is astounding though, you guys can in one fell swoop tell me I shouldn’t insult her face, then feel free to insult my face immediately after ? #doublestandards Besides, back to point one: Rosmah’s hurt feelings are the least of my concerns sorry ??♀️
If you are confused by the mv at the end, believe it or not Rosmah actually released an album in 2013. The voice you are hearing is actually hers ? You have to see it to believe it: https://youtu.be/gfF3_JmgkDg ft: Najib plus vintage dreamy filter lol
And the comedy gold doesn’t just end here. Rosmah claims that she actually earned millions from her album sales, despite it never being sold to the public. Apparently government officials were such fans of her singing that they bought her private album... and there is nothing wrong with spending her own money on a few bags and dresses ? #icannot (Source: https://says.com/my/news/rosmah-i-m-a-naturally-gifted-accountant-who-has-earned-millions-from-my-recording-album )
