Pains gone after rebuking the symptoms

On Sunday, 7 April 2024, I tuned in to the 8.30pm online service. That day, Pastor Prince was speaking on healing and sharing scriptures for us to hold on to. I immediately took a snapshot of the verses to save them in my folder.

I was also hoping to receive my healing as the left side of my head and neck had been hurting for months. I had gone to the doctor, but they were unable to determine the cause of it and had arranged for me to undergo a scan to investigate further.

During the sermon, I think I felt slightly better, but the pain was still there. After the service, I sat down on my bed, put my hands on my head and neck where it hurt, and repeated what Pastor Prince had said earlier, “In the name of Jesus, I rebuke this head and neck pain. In Jesus' name, I pray.”

Then, I came out of my room and felt something in me telling me to pray over my mom who had been recently experiencing discomfort and pain in her chest area.

I told my mom to stand as I wanted to pray over her. I repeated the same words, “In the name of Jesus, I rebuke the chest pain, the hurt, any growth, muscle injury, stress, whatever is causing the pain, in Jesus' name I pray.” I could feel the presence of the Holy Spirit as I did that.

After the prayer, my mom went to bed and when I checked on myself, I noticed the pain in my neck and head was gone! I was so happy because months of suffering from it was not easy.

The next evening, I asked my mom how she felt, and she said that there was no pain in her chest too! Praise the Lord!

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for sharing the scriptures and reminding me and teaching me how to pray for the sick!

No more headache and blurred vision

Since the morning of 6 April 2024, I had been suffering from a severe headache. The headache was so intense that it exacerbated my already declining eyesight, which I had brushed off as part of the ageing process.

At 46 years old this year, I had resigned myself to the idea that my vision was naturally deteriorating. Despite taking pain relief pills, the headache persisted without much improvement.

The next day, I attended the 2.30pm service at The Star Performing Arts Centre. I was filled with joy when Pastor Prince addressed the symptom of blurred vision during the service. I prayed to receive my healing.

As the service progressed, I began to feel a tingling and numbing sensation at the back of my head, the very area where the headache was centred. Halfway through the service, I noticed that the headache had nearly disappeared, and miraculously, my vision had become remarkably sharp and clear!

I could see Pastor Prince's face on the screen with clarity—something that I could not do at the start of the service!

Praise the Lord, and thank God for this incredible healing! Amen!

Father tested negative for lupus

I've been listening to Pastor Prince's messages for quite some time. A few Sundays ago, Pastor Prince ministered God’s healing to the people and mentioned that the Lord was healing someone from lupus.

At that time, my father, who is a believer, was very ill and had been admitted to the hospital for suspicion of lupus. We were partaking of the holy Communion and believing that by Jesus’ stripes, my father is healed. So, as soon as Pastor Prince mentioned lupus, I received it on his behalf and praised the Lord for my father’s healing.

Sure enough, that week his test results came back negative, and he was discharged from the hospital.

He's had no pain or fever since then. Praise the Lord!

Thank you, Pastor Prince and New Creation Church, for being faithful to your call!

Healed from pain from degenerative discs

I had been suffering from pain in my back due to degenerative discs for about 12 years. Recently, I underwent a scan which showed that my condition had worsened. The doctor told me that I would need to live with the pain until my 60s or 70s when
my back would eventually become very stiff and I would not feel much pain after getting used to it. I was really depressed upon hearing this. I asked God when my healing would come, as I did not want to continue living my life in pain, especially when I am just in my late 40s.

Normally, I would attend the 1st service at The Star Performing Arts Centre on Sundays. However, on 7 April, I chose to wake up later to attend the 2nd service as it was my birthday. That day, I was awakened by a warmth on my back at around 9am. Thinking that it was the usual ache that I would experience daily, I did not bother with it.

During the 2nd service, I watched the sermon recording of the 1st service on the big screen, and Pastor Prince was ministering healing. He specifically said that he saw someone suffering from degenerative discs on his back and God was healing this condition. I was very delighted when I heard that and immediately claimed God's healing.

Looking back, I realised that the word was given at the same time when I was awakened by the warmth that morning. I believe my healing had already taken place through time and space!

During the week, I went for my regular physiotherapy session. Usually, I would not be able to move my back forward and backward with ease and without any discomfort. However, to my surprise, I was able to move my back without any ache or pain that day. I could even do stretches without any discomfort. My physiotherapist was very amazed at such an improvement! Praise God!

I am now completely healed of my long-suffering back pain. It is a strange feeling that I don't have any pain now!

All glory to God! Thank you, Pastor Prince! I don't play any games or soccer, but I will be training to run a marathon again.

Sharp pain in left knee gone

Recently, I experienced sharp pain in my left knee accompanied by a clicking sound that bothered me as I moved around. Additionally, I suffered from back pain.

On Resurrection Sunday, as Pastor Prince ministered in the gifts of healing, he specifically addressed knee conditions. While seated, I began to move my left leg up and down and realised the pain had disappeared.

But God didn’t stop there. During lunch with my care group after the service, I noticed the pain in my back was also gone!

I know I have been healed, just because He loves me. All glory to Jesus.

Healed from double vision

I had been suffering from double vision for about eight months as my eye muscles, tissues, and nerves were damaged due to serious hyperthyroidism. This was caused by Graves' Disease, an autoimmune disorder I was diagnosed with exactly one year ago.

As a result, I had to wear special prism glasses to allow me to see without distortion, and without them, I would be unable to go about my basic daily chores, let alone work.

On Resurrection Sunday, my family and I attended the second service at Marina Bay Sands Ballrooms. During the healing ministry time, Pastor Prince called out the condition of double vision, which he also mentioned someone in the first service had been healed of. We immediately claimed healing for my eyesight.

Nothing happened there and then. But in the afternoon, after a short nap, I realised I could miraculously see clearly, without the need for the special glasses! I managed to reach out to my ophthalmologist that same evening to check and test my condition and was informed that the muscles in my eyes had "improved vastly", which I can only attribute to the Lord's healing touch.

Since Sunday, I no longer need to wear the pair of prism glasses and have even gone out for business meetings and activities. My eyesight has been healed and restored.

It is so surreal to be able to see again after almost a year-long struggle, both for me and my family, to say the least.

Indeed, my failing eyesight has been resurrected on Resurrection Sunday!

Hallelujah! All glory, honour and praise to our Lord Jesus for His love and faithfulness. Indeed, our God is a God of time and space; even though we were not at The Star, we could still receive His healing. Praise the Lord!

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your obedience to the prompting and leading of the Holy Spirit to call out the condition.

Pain in back and right arm gone

Three months ago, I strained my right arm at work. About a month ago, I also pulled a muscle in my back. As a result, I couldn't use my right arm to lift anything, not even to open doors. Additionally, bending my back caused pain, and walking for more than an hour was unbearable.

On Resurrection Sunday, Pastor Prince ministered the Lord’s healing and declared that healing was taking place. He encouraged the congregation to do what they normally couldn't do. Immediately, I got out of bed and began moving my arm, hand, and bending my back to touch my toes.

Then, when Pastor Prince declared, “You have been made whole”, the pain in my back vanished! As others began testifying of their healing, the pain in my arm also disappeared completely.

The following day, I went to work without feeling any pain. Upon returning home, I did something I hadn't been able to do with my right hand in months: turn and press down the lock on my door, opening it effortlessly. Now, I can lift and hold things with my right hand. Praise the Lord! Thank You, Jesus, for healing me! Hallelujah!

Able to sleep well at night after reciting Psalm 92

For the past three months, I had struggled to sleep. Sometimes, I couldn't sleep at all for three days, which led to anxiety, shortness of breath, and blurry vision. This had never happened to me before, so I was devastated and afraid.

Then the Lord led me to a doctor who explained that my troubles were due to hidden stress and prescribed medication. So, I prayed that God would grant me a sound mind and refresh my soul. I also took my medication and listened to Pastor Prince's sermons every day and every night before I attempted to sleep. Soon, I was getting better but still experienced some sleepless nights.

One day, I looked at my husband's face; he looked tired and old. Suddenly, fear and guilt overwhelmed my heart. Since I couldn't sleep, my husband would try to keep me company and refused to sleep himself. I cried out to the Lord, "We're still in our 30s; should I live like this my whole life, struggling to sleep and ageing faster?"

On Sunday, 21 January 2024, I tuned in to New Creation Church's online service, and Pastor Prince invited those who found themselves becoming more forgetful to stand so that he could pray over them. I stood up because I had indeed become more forgetful lately. But then Pastor Prince quoted Psalm 92:12-15. Tears started to flow from my eyes, a warm feeling enveloped my heart, and suddenly, amidst the fear I had, I heard the Lord say, "That will never happen to you; you are the righteous."

That week, my husband and I recited the verses every chance we got, and every night before sleep.

Since then, I haven't had a single sleepless night! I wake up early, feeling refreshed and strong, with no more fear or guilt. Thank You, Jesus, for making me righteous! Now, I'm excited to declare more of God's Word and possess my promised land!

Delivered from suicidal thoughts and self-harm

Growing up, I never knew who God was. But when I finally found Jesus, I realised that my perspectives on God were different from my parents'. I had no choice but to adhere to my parents' perspectives and rules. Every time I reminded myself that God loves me and He is merciful, people around me would tell me that I was not enough and that I would still end up in hell because of the sins I had committed.

Because of that, I lived in darkness and started to experience depression. I lived my life to please others, including my parents, and I attempted suicide twice and struggled with self-harm for two years.

Some years ago, I flew to Singapore to continue my studies, contemplating ending my life here. But I still harboured a dust-sized hope. So, I asked God to give me a reason to stay alive. It could be anything or anyone, or just a specific place that I would visit once a week.

I gave myself about a year, but before that day came, I met a godly Christian friend who introduced me to the truth and brought me to New Creation Church.

The first time I went to church with him, I learned about the gospel of grace, and it blew my mind. The second time I went to church, I felt a warm sensation that compelled me to pray to God and receive His grace. I felt something inside me urging me to pray in Jesus' name, so I did, and I felt so relieved afterwards. It felt like all my burdens and negative feelings were gone. It felt so light and beautiful. The third time I went to church, I joined in the worship, singing and praying in Jesus' name.

Gradually, I found hope and a reason to stay alive. I was no longer lost in the dark because I had found the light. Without realising it, my addiction to self-harm disappeared! I used to self-harm when I felt down and stressed, but now I always seek God's help first.

I have no more scars on my wrist. I don't need to cover my scars with make-up anymore. The voices in my head that kept telling me to end my life are also gone!

Knowing that Jesus loves me saved my life. He found me when I was lost. He's a good Shepherd. I am no longer a nobody; I am a child of God. I am thankful to Jesus and grateful for being loved and saved by Him.

Recovered from psychosis by listening to the Word

About a year ago, I was diagnosed with psychosis (a mental condition characterised by a disconnection from reality) at the age of 29. It was one of the toughest times, as I was hospitalised and was not able to return home to my family.

This affected not only me but also those who love me. The doctors couldn’t fully explain why, and neither did I understand; it caught everyone by surprise. I just felt so lost in sorrow, in darkness, and trapped.

There were so many things that happened to me in the hospital that, to this day, it still feels surreal. My memory of it is vague, but I remember crying and screaming every night in the hospital and sometimes needed to be sedated. What kept me calm was the Word of God. I would either have Pastor Prince’s sermons playing in the background or worship music plugged into my ears. I even remember sharing it with other patients and nurses too. Some patients who heard it even left the hospital before me!

In one of the sermons, Pastor Prince was preaching about the importance of singing hymns. In that message, there was a doctor who went into a psychiatric ward and sang "Jesus Loves Me"; the patients started singing too and were healed and discharged!

Then, my partner reminded me that I was singing the same hymns in the hospital, and I realised God was with me every step of the way. I felt guided through the valley even though I had no control over my own mind. I thank God that eventually I was discharged, with all medical costs covered!

I continued to recover from psychosis by attending New Creation Church every Sunday. I am grateful to Abba Father for placing me in such a good church, for the anointed messages preached by the pastors, and for so many people who were praying and caring for me.

Today, I am free in my mind, have a good-paying job, a loving partner, and a church community by the grace of God. And most of all, my mind is redeemed by the Lord.

Through this, I experienced how God loves me personally, wants to take care of me, and is the God who answers prayers. He has indeed brought me out of darkness into His marvellous light!

No more evidence of lymphoma

More than half a year ago, I experienced intense pain in my stomach, which prompted me to seek a medical check-up at the hospital. However, the results of my colonoscopy and gastroscopy were normal.

Believing I might have stones, my doctor recommended an ultrasound scan. Through this scan, growths in my abdominal area were detected. This was something a normal check-up wouldn’t have revealed.

Further investigations at the hospital revealed that I had Stage 3 lymphoma, and I was immediately admitted for chemotherapy treatments. Although I had heard about the potential side effects of chemo, I managed to go through my treatments with minimal side effects.

During this challenging time, my friend shared an online sermon by Pastor Mark Ng with me. It included a healing testimony of a 74-year-old man with Stage 4 lymphoma, who received 100 per cent healing—where his body showed no evidence of lymphoma—after completing just three chemo treatments!

I was very encouraged by this healing testimony and I believed that if God could heal him, He could heal me too. So, I continued to meditate and declare healing scriptures.

After my fourth chemo treatment, a scan showed an overall improvement of more than 50 per cent in my condition. With only two treatments left, my human mind told me that believing in complete healing was not possible because of the short time frame.  

However, meditating on God's Word led me to a revelation in Psalm 41:3, “The Lord sustains him on his sickbed; in his illness you restore him to full health.” I believed that God would restore me to "full health". So, I claimed this promise that I would receive 100 per cent healing before my treatments were over.

Then, during a church service, Pastor Prince also prayed specifically for those with lymphoma. I received this prayer for complete healing from the crown of my head to the soles of my feet.

Following the 6th chemotherapy treatment, my second scan confirmed there was no more evidence of lymphoma.

Now, I am 100 per cent healed and in remission. This is truly a miraculous healing from God, and I am writing this testimony to give Him all the glory! Thank You, Jesus!

Persistent Cough Disappeared

I had been coughing for the past six months. Despite multiple visits to the doctors and trying many different kinds of medication, they were unable to determine the cause of my cough, which persisted.

Instead, the doctors discovered I had hyperthyroidism, an autoimmune disorder, and fatty liver, suggesting that my cough could be linked to my hyperthyroidism and that I might never recover.

I was devastated but was reminded of Psalm 92:12-15, which Pastor Prince had taught us. I kept declaring the verses to myself, and within a week, I experienced a recovery from my cough by 30-fold, 60-fold, and then 100-fold!

I went back to the doctor and took another blood test; the results showed that my liver was completely healed, and my thyroid had improved!

Today, I no longer have a cough and have a healthy liver. I am still declaring the verse over myself and believing for the complete restoration of my thyroid.

All glory goes to Jesus, and thank you, Pastor Prince, for sharing the Word.

Healed of debilitating endometriosis pain

About a decade ago, I suffered from a condition called endometriosis and had an operation back then. It led to many difficulties and complications, including debilitating pain.

Once a month during my monthly, I would be bedbound for a week. I would not be able to walk and had to take time off from work. I didn’t have any kind of life. I would have feelings of dread every month because of the debilitating pain I experienced. I relied on a lot of painkillers to function.

I constantly cried to my Father in heaven and asked for healing and relief. I even asked family and friends to pray for me. I just carried on praying and living my life like this, expecting to be healed one day.

About a year ago, I was extremely ill due to my monthly. I was bedbound in awful pain, unable to walk, and was extremely weak. I listened to one of Pastor Prince’s sermons where he mentioned someone having pain in their stomach. I felt like he was talking about me.

I put my hand on my stomach and prayed. I declared, “I am healed, and my body is like Jesus Christ’s.” Two days after that episode, I felt no pain. The Holy Spirit prompted me to move around the flat. I jumped up and down, singing to Jesus, thanking the Lord and my heavenly Father for my healing. My stomach felt normal to touch, and I no longer needed to take painkillers to function.

Now I kickbox, run, and can walk normally when I’m on my monthly. The nurse at the doctor’s office said everything in my body was normal after some blood tests and checks. I AM HEALED.

Thank you so much, Pastor Prince, for your life-saving and grace-filled sermons on YouTube. I came across them three years ago after having my appendix removed. I now watch your sermons daily, and I re-watch them for encouragement.

May the Lord bless you abundantly, Pastor Prince. We truly serve an awesome, amazing God. Please keep smashing it with your wonderful grace-filled sermons. The Lord is saving lives through you and the gospel of grace. God bless you and your wonderful family.

All praise and glory to our awesome God. Thank You, Jesus!

Dull pain in back gone

I experienced a slipped disc several months ago, and although I have since recovered, I remain cautious about making sudden movements that could strain my lower back. Whenever I feel a slight, dull pain in that area, I become anxious, fearing a relapse of my slipped disc.

On Saturday, 24 June, I started experiencing a dull pain in my lower back. The next day, during the church service, Pastor Prince encouraged the congregation to place their hands on any part of their bodies that had pain. Without hesitation, I put my hand on my lower back, where the pain was.

After Pastor Prince rebuked the pain and prayed over it, I decided to step out in faith and move my body in ways that would typically cause pain. Miraculously, I did not experience any pain throughout the entire day on Sunday. The pain was completely gone!

Child Now Cancer-Free

In June 2020, while the world was fighting the onslaught of Covid, my family was embroiled in another battle. My six-year-old daughter, Debbie, was diagnosed with osteosarcoma, an aggressive bone cancer in the shin of her right leg near her knee. During diagnosis, a lung nodule in her left lung was also found, which could indicate cancer metastasis from her leg to her lung.

The treatment was leg amputation to remove the tumour and 29 weeks of aggressive chemotherapy, and lung surgery to remove the lung nodule. Her survival chances were 70 per cent if there was no lung metastasis and less than 30 percent if there was. It was a great blow to me and my family. Debbie had to stay in the hospital four to five days weekly, nearly every week for 29 weeks; and due to Covid, only one caregiver could be at the hospital. So, my wife and I had to rotate taking care of her, cooking, and sending meals from home. It was tiring and stressful as we didn't get to see each other and we couldn't support each other. Also, our 12-year-old son Joseph was having his primary school leaving examinations (PSLE) in October of 2020, and he was affected by his sister's cancer as well.

When New Creation Church got the news, the church immediately stepped in to support my wife, myself, Joseph, and Debbie. They provided help, support, prayer, and even ferried us to and from the hospital when they could. The Rock Kidz leaders supported me and Debbie, and they partnered with the Chinese Ministry visitation team to support my wife. The Rock Kidz teachers also held regular Zoom calls with Debbie and Joseph, keeping Debbie entertained and encouraged during the tough chemo regime.

Debbie's leg surgery was planned for September 2020. Pre-surgery scans in August showed that the tumour in the leg and the nodule in the lung were still there, and the leg surgery had to proceed in September. To be honest, I was disappointed, but I continued to believe that God is working behind the scenes. The leg surgery, called rotationplasty, would cut off some flesh from Debbie's mid-thigh to her shin and reattach her foot to her thigh backwards to function as a knee so that she can be fitted with a prosthetic leg to give her better mobility.

The highly complex surgery would take 12 hours. Unfortunately, the surgery didn't go well. Debbie started to swell badly in her body, and her legs started to turn black and were covered with blisters. Necrosis, which is dying flesh and tissues, started to set in. Again disappointed, but I held on to God's promises that Debbie is healing and that the battle is the Lord's. Eventually, the leg swelling subsided, but so much flesh and skin had died that the doctor said that a skin graft was inevitable, and there was no guarantee of success. The doctor prepared us for a possible amputation of the hip, which would also mean that there was no chance for a prosthetic leg.

My wife started having suicidal thoughts, and we both were on antidepressants to help us go through those dark days. I knew God is real and God is true. Though I couldn't see what He was doing, I held on to His work at the cross and that He is our healer. My faith was weak, but I clung tightly to whatever God's word said.

In February 2021, prior to the lung surgery to remove the nodule in the lung, Pastor Prince mentioned in his sermon that he saw someone with a spot in the lung and that spot be dead and removed. I knew that moment it was for Debbie, and I claimed it.

It was a nerve-wracking lung surgery to remove the lung nodule. One week later, the biopsy results came out, and the report stood out clear as day, solid as rock—no viable tumour identified.

On 8 March, Debbie was declared cancer-free and was in remission. What a victory! We know that the healing had to be God and, most precious of all, through these months of pain, discomfort, and tough side effects, Debbie has not lost her joy. She was always joyful, singing and dancing, especially during Rock Kidz Online.

She's also the one to remind me to take holy Communion regularly, even during the hardest parts of the treatment—suffering from side effects of chemo, pain in her leg, ulcers in her mouth, and in so many parts of her body. She just was joyful. It has to be Jesus.

Today, my wife and I are off antidepressants. Debbie is getting ready to go to school again in April with her prosthetic leg. Despite all that we have gone through, we know right that God is the one who has given Debbie the victory.

Not only so, Debbie has been doing well academically and received multiple academic awards and is assessed to be intellectually above her peers. Praise Jesus!

Growth in jaw gone after prayer

Recently, I noticed a slight lump on my left jaw. I wasn't sure whether it was from the gums or inside my mouth. Even though it didn't cause me any discomfort, I was becoming quite concerned about it.

I asked my husband, who is a doctor, to examine it for me, and he felt the lump as well. We both prayed over it and asked the Lord to remove it, trusting in His Word and receiving healing by faith. I thought to myself that I might have to seek medical attention if it continued to bother me in the weeks to come.

On Sunday, 28 January, I attended the 8.30am service when Pastor Prince called out healing for anyone who had any growths or tumours in their body, he specifically mentioned "in the mouth or gums".

I immediately stood up in the service and laid my hands on my left jaw to receive my healing. Pastor Henry prayed over all of us as well. After the service, I checked the side of my jaw, and the lump had completely disappeared!

I asked my husband to feel for it, and he too confirmed that it was completely gone. I want to give all glory and praise to Jesus for His healing and His amazing love.

Thank you, Pastor Prince and Pastor Henry, for your prayer of faith. I feel so loved by my Abba Father. He truly is a God of miracles.

Growth below rib cage gone

On 22 January 2024, I began experiencing pain and discomfort in my upper abdomen and discovered a growth just below my rib cage.

A few days later, I consulted a doctor who, after a physical examination, confirmed the presence of the growth. I was subsequently referred for an ultrasound.

During this time, I turned to the Lord and prayed for strength to fully trust in His Word—that I am the righteousness of God in Christ, that no weapon formed against me shall prosper, and that by His stripes, I am healed. Furthermore, my husband and I continued to partake of holy Communion daily, remembering and thanking our Lord Jesus for His finished work on the cross.

On Sunday, 28 January 2024, I tuned in to New Creation Church's 11.30am online service. During the ministering segment, Pastor Prince felt led to address a condition involving a "growth" that was "recent" and located "just below the rib cage."

This description precisely matched my condition! My husband and I looked at each other, our eyes filled with joy, excitement, and hope. Standing together in our living room, with his hands on me, we thanked the Lord for His deep love, amazing grace, and a personal touch.

That Friday, I underwent the ultrasound scan and received the results the next day. The sonographer reported no growth detected in my abdomen!

Hallelujah! Praise the Lord! Thank you, Pastor Prince and Pastor Henry, for being faithful and obedient servants of our Lord Jesus in ministering to the sick. May the Lord richly bless you and your families, as well as all the work of your hands!

Assured that baby is well

On Saturday, 27 January 2024, my six-month-old son started vomiting, not once, but three times. I became worried and started blaming myself, wondering if it was the food I had fed him that caused it.

I messaged a fellow sister from church to pray that he would be well. As my family usually attends the third service, I received a text around 10.30am from her. She said that during the morning service, Pastor Prince had mentioned a baby throwing up more than once and added that God is assuring the parents that the baby would be well.

Hearing that put our minds at ease. When our baby woke up, he was extremely joyful and active! Thank you, Pastor Prince, for flowing in the Spirit!

Growths in body disappeared

On 19 January 2024, I went for my usual annual gynae check-up. During the ultrasound, my doctor detected two new growths that were not there in my previous check-up. Alarmingly, there were shadows in both of them. She immediately ordered a tumour marker test to check if they are benign or malignant.

I was concerned and prayed, telling the Lord that I hate doing operations because I do not like to stay in hospital. I was also concerned about the financial impact and the caregiving arrangements for my son when I am away. I even made arrangements to meet my insurance agent to check on my hospitalisation plan.

On Sunday, 28 January 2024, before the start of the sermon, Pastor Prince prayed for someone who has been to the doctor and diagnosed with a tumour. I was not sure who he was referring to and did not think God was talking about me. However, he went on to mention that when gifts of healing are flowing, they will overflow. He also declared that God wants to heal those with tumours, and asked them to go back to the doctor and find them no more! I received the healing in my heart and thanked the Lord.

Two days later, I went back to the doctor for another scan. The two growths were completely gone! The doctor was surprised and told me that she had double-checked to make sure she did not see wrongly. She mentioned some vague theories why they might have vanished and did not seem very convinced herself. So, I told her I had prayed, and she smiled, saying she had been worried but is very happy that they are gone.

This miracle felt like a wink from heaven, showing me how much Jesus loves me and cares about what I was going through.

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your faithfulness in sharing God’s Word.

Back pain gone

I have been suffering from pain in the tailbone and hip area for the past eight months. Both sitting and standing have caused significant discomfort. Despite undergoing treatments, the pain remained excruciating, with neither sitting nor standing offering much relief.

Earlier in the year, I underwent several X-rays for my condition, and the doctor noted that the 5th cervical vertebra showed signs of degeneration, and the tailbone displayed a slight misalignment, which may have caused the pain in the hip muscles. He scheduled another scan for me in February 2024.

On Sunday, 7 January 2024, when Pastor Prince prayed for someone with pain in the tailbone and hip area, I stood up and moved my hip. To my surprise, I could barely feel the pain. Over the next few days, I cautiously observed and realised that the Lord had truly healed my lower back.

All glory to Lord Jesus!

No more breathlessness or chest pain

Since the beginning of 2024, I had been suffering from insomnia, which led to painful migraines and shortness of breath.

I couldn’t sleep and found myself constantly waking up to remind myself to breathe. This had never happened to me before, and it persisted days and nights. I thought I was stressed, but my life was proceeding as usual.

Then, I started to worry that I might have a heart attack at such a young age and was afraid to go to the hospital for a check-up. I tried to tell myself to calm down and engage in activities that made me happy, but nothing helped. My breathing became more laboured and I experienced increasing chest pain and headaches.

On Sunday, 14 January 2024, Pastor Prince said that there were people having fearful thoughts of a heart attack, and he declared those thoughts would be cancelled in Jesus’ name.

After the prayer, I felt a warmth spread through my body and received the healing by faith. Immediately after service, and throughout the entire week, my breathing returned to normal. I no longer experience shortness of breath or migraines. I have been completely set free once and for all! Hallelujah! Thank You, Jesus, for healing me.

Prolonged pain in the buttock gone

About two years ago, I had a traumatic fall while rollerblading at high speed and landed on my right buttock.

The pain from the injury prolonged and did not improve even after numerous treatments. Over time, it began to affect my lifestyle, and I prayed to the Lord for a miracle to heal it with just one touch.

On 7 January 2024, while Pastor Prince was praying for the sick, he mentioned that someone was suffering from pain in the buttock area and encouraged the person not to doubt that God has already healed them.

Upon hearing this, I knew that it was for me. From the moment on, all the pain in my buttock area disappeared for good. Thank You, Jesus, for Your healing! And thank you, Pastor Prince, for praying for us.

Mind became sharper after memorising Psalm 92

For the past couple of months, I had been feeling lightheaded, and my mind was in a fog. I attributed it to tiredness or fatigue, but it didn’t seem to lift, no matter what I did. I tried doing my Korean language course but made very slow progress.

On Sunday, 21 January 2024, I attended the service at Marina Bay Sands Ballrooms. That day, Pastor Prince mentioned something powerful. He asked the congregation to memorise Psalm 92, verses 12 to 15.

So, I wrote down the verses and pictured myself as the flourishing palm tree and tall cedar tree mentioned in the verses. I also visualised myself being fruitful, with green leaves sprouting all around.

After memorising and meditating on the verses, I felt the fog lift and my mind become sharper. Learning Korean has never been easier. Praise the Lord!

Healed of a long-term heart condition

I used to suffer from a heart condition known as mitral valve prolapse. After years of monitoring and testing, the doctor finally discharged me with a clean bill of health. Despite this, I continued to undergo annual health check-ups, including electrocardiogram (ECG) tests, as a precautionary measure.

On 19 October 2023, after a routine stress ECG, I received a notification from the National Heart Centre, indicating the need for another heart test in a few weeks’ time due to abnormalities. This was unprecedented and raised concerns about the possibility of a deteriorating valve condition.

Despite feeling anxious, I chose to believe God for health and wholeness. During the Sunday service on 22 October 2023, Pastor Prince ministered healing, specifically addressing a heart condition and using the term “valve”. I knew it was God calling out for me. Tears welled up in my eyes as I turned to look at my wife, who was also tearing. I immediately claimed my healing, and I shouted “Amen” when Pastor Prince declared that we would receive a new valve and a new heart.

Over the following two weeks, I held onto Pastor Prince's teachings, rejecting negative thoughts and reminding myself that I am already healed, and divine health is mine through Jesus' sacrifice.

In November, I underwent the heart test and was informed that I should return for the results in two weeks’ time.

During the anxious wait, I would confess that I am a child of God and Jesus has already taken away all my sickness, and given me His divine health. I also found comfort in Pastor Prince's sermon on the armour of God.

When the results were finally out, the doctor told me that everything was fine and even said that I have a strong, healthy heart! All honour and glory to Jesus!

Knee pain gone and strength increased

At the beginning of this year, I began exercising, and after jogging, I experienced pain in my right knee. I wasn't sure if I had twisted it.

During the first service on 14 January 2024, Pastor Prince called out my condition, and I claimed the healing for myself. The following day, I went for a jog, and my condition was completely healed.

Praise God! That's not all—I could even jog three kilometres without stopping. God has increased my strength!

Thank You, Jesus, for healing me, and Pastor Prince, for calling out my condition.

Knee pain gone after attending service

I attended the 11.30am service at New Creation Church on 14 January 2024. On that day, Pastor Prince prayed for various conditions, including knee pain.

I stood in faith for a friend who was suffering from this condition, but it did not occur to me to pray for my own knees, which had been giving me pain for several years. I could not carry out certain workouts, and I would also have to take deep breaths before I climbed the stairs due to the pain.

The next day, I went to pick up my daughter at her student care centre. Along the way, I had to climb a long flight of stairs. However, to my surprise, I did not feel any pain in my knees. It suddenly dawned on me that my knees could have been healed during the service the day before!

So, I tried to climb more stairs and did squats the next day. Amazingly, there is now no more pain or cracking sound in my knees. I am in awe of this miraculous healing!

Pain caused by shingles left instantly

I had been suffering from shingles for some time. I could feel the pain in my lower right abdomen near my hip, all the way to the lower back. According to the doctor, it could take at least a month before my condition gets better.

On Sunday, 14 January 2024, Pastor Prince prayed over a condition of pain on the right side around the waist, and mentioned that the person suffering from this condition hasn’t been able to sit for long. Praise the Lord, as Pastor Prince prayed over the condition, the pain in my body went away instantly. Hallelujah! Praise the Lord!

I thank you for your ministry, Pastor Prince, you are truly a blessing to the world. Your teachings have set me free from a life of condemnation. I hope you visit Switzerland someday!

Inflammation in mouth gone

On 5 January, I visited the doctor due to pain in my mouth and throat area. The doctor diagnosed it as an inflammation and there was an ulcer at the back of my throat.  

From that day onwards, I started praying for healing, as the ulcer was making it hard for me to swallow.

On Sunday, 7 January 2024, I woke up and realised that my ulcer had multiplied! Instead of one, there were now three, and my throat was hurting even more than before.  

I was considering if I should attend church, but I told myself to go and receive my healing. When Pastor Prince came out and started praying for the people, I also begin to pray for my ulcers to be healed. 

Shortly after, Pastor Prince mentioned that there was healing for people with ulcers. When I heard that, I decided to swallow some saliva to check my condition, and I realised that the pain was gone! 

I am so grateful to the Lord for this healing, and I want to thank Pastor Prince for his prayers.

No more pain in knee

I had been suffering from pain in my knee for more than five years due to running and sports. In the past two to three months, my condition worsened to the point where I could not squat due to excruciating knee pain.

On 7 January 2024, I attended the 8.30am service at The Star Performing Arts Centre. When Paster Prince ministered healing and mentioned pain in the limbs, I quickly claimed the healing for myself.

After the service, while walking home and climbing down some steps, I heard a “click” in my knee. I thought I had injured my knee further. To my surprise, the opposite occurred—the pain in my knee disappeared completely.

When I reached home, I attempted to squat, and I could actually do it!

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for praying for us, and thank You, Jesus, for healing me.

Pain in back gone

I had been suffering from backache for several days, and it kept getting worse. One day, while on my way to work, I tried to climb up an escalator but couldn’t due to the intense pain in my back. At night while sleeping, I also couldn’t turn to the sides due to the pain. 

I tried taking muscle relaxants and painkillers and even applied plasters and ointment, but nothing worked. 

On Saturday, I woke up twice during the night due to the pain, and decided I would visit the doctor on Monday. 

The next day, 7 January 2024, I tuned in to the church’s online service at 11.30am. During the sermon, Pastor Prince called out several conditions that the Lord was healing, and backache was one of them. I claimed the healing for myself and started twisting around; I could feel that my condition had improved. 

That night, I decided to monitor my condition while sleeping. Amazingly, there was no pain at all. I was completely healed!

Pain in hips gone

On Saturday, 6 January 2024, I experienced pain in my hips that caused me to toss and turn in bed.

The next day was the first Sunday of the year. Initially, I didn't feel like attending the in-person service, but eventually, I decided to go because I believed that God had something in store for me.

I sat in the overflow room to watch the live telecast. During the ministering session, Pastor Prince mentioned that there was healing for hip conditions. I didn't expect Pastor Prince to call it out and when he prayed, the pain in both my hips disappeared instantly!

For the following nights, I slept on my sides to test if there was still pain, but there was none!  

I believe the condition will not return as declared by Pastor Prince. All glory to Jesus.

Friend’s mother now Alzheimer’s-free after prayer and the holy Communion

I am a Korean who has been attending New Creation Church since 2017. There is this friend of mine whom I have kept in touch with since high school. Though we don’t send messages to each other often, we would still exchange birthday greetings, and we follow each other on a social media platform. From her pictures, I could tell that she travels a lot with her mum, and it’s evident she cares deeply for her.

Not long ago, I messaged her complimenting her resemblance to her mum, and she immediately replied, saying that her mum was diagnosed with Alzheimer's two years ago and that is why she and her family have been making efforts to spend quality time with her. I was shocked when I heard this and asked if I could share with her about the holy Communion since she was a Christian. I sent her the prayer that our church uses to pray during the holy Communion and a short video of Pastor Prince’s message about the Lord’s Supper.

I also encouraged her to partake of the holy Communion with her mum as often as she could. She then replied saying that she prayed to God the night before and she believes that my message was an answer from Him. 

A few weeks later, she messaged me saying that a miracle had happened. That was when I remembered that she was supposed to take her mum to the hospital to see if she could be given a newly invented shot for her condition. She went on to share with me that during the examination, her mum showed no trace of Alzheimer’s, and eventually, the doctor declared her Alzheimer's-free. Hallelujah! She kept telling me that she couldn’t believe it and thanked me for sharing the Bible truth with her, and asked me to share her story.

I'm amazed and thankful for this miracle. All glory and praises to the Lord Jesus!

Scapula condition gone

One Saturday afternoon, I engaged in strenuous exercise and carried a heavy handbag throughout the day. That night, I was awakened multiple times by pain in my right shoulder blade. I am a side sleeper and tend to toss and turn frequently, so every time I turned to my right side, the pain would jolt me awake.

On Sunday morning, I woke up with incredible pain in my right shoulder blade. Everything was painful—reaching for items on my table, stretching my neck, and even sitting down without any activity would suddenly trigger intense pain.

As I prepared to serve during the third service, I thought to myself that it would be nice if Pastor Prince could minister and pray for healing in my shoulder blade.

After partaking the holy Communion, during the testimony sharing segment, I decided to search online for the causes of shoulder blade pain. The word "scapula" came up multiple times as the name for that area, and it was the first time I had encountered this term.

When Pastor Prince approached with his handheld mic, my excitement grew as it signalled to me that he was about to minister. I continued to look up more information about the scapula but put my phone away when he asked us to stand. To my amazement, one of the first things Pastor Prince prayed for was "shoulder blade pain," and he specifically mentioned seeing the word "scapula"! My jaw literally dropped as it felt like the Lord had heard precisely what I had prayed for.

Though the pain persisted, I chose to believe that my healing would come in due time.

When Monday came, I was still in pain when I went to the office. Then in the late morning, while on a video call, I noticed that my right arm was draped over my chair—something I definitely couldn't do the day before.

After the call, I began moving my arms and stretching my neck, only to realise that I could now perform all the actions that had caused me pain. I was completely free from discomfort! Thank You, Lord, for hearing my prayer and for Your supernatural healing!

Stomach discomfort gone

On Sunday, 22 October, my wife and I were on our way to GV Yishun for service when I experienced a terrible gastric pain that also triggered symptoms of indigestion.

I wanted to tell my wife to head home and watch the service online. However, I eventually decided to attend the service despite the discomfort.

When Pastor Prince came on and began praying for healing, I felt the power of God upon me, and I received my healing instantly!

The pain completely disappeared after the ministering session.

I really want to thank Jesus for His goodness and also Pastor Prince for praying for us!

Friend and her received healing while overseas

I recently went on an overseas trip with my friend. We embarked on a three-day mountain hiking trip, and on the first night when we arrived at the base camp, my friend suffered gastritis and food poisoning.

Her condition was so bad that she had to stay in the tent for the next two days, and piggybacked down the day after by the guides who were with us.
When we reached our accommodation, my friend was still extremely unwell. She was unable to move, eat or drink. The next day, Sunday, 22 October, we had to call a doctor in to give her an intravenous (IV) drip.

While she was being treated, I stepped out of our room to give her space to rest. Meanwhile, I decided that I would tune in to the online service myself. That day, Pastor Prince prayed for those who were sick, and the first condition he called out was gastritis. I was extremely thankful and wondered what were the chances! I claimed the healing for my friend and fully believed that she would be completely healed.

Right after that, Pastor Prince also prayed for a knee injury, specifically due to physical activity. I had been struggling with an old knee injury for years due to my intense dance training, and it had once again been triggered during the trip because of the hike in the mountains.

So, I claimed the healing for myself too. After the service, I returned to the room and to my surprise, I saw my friend standing up, and getting ready to go out. She was putting on her dress, applying makeup, and even laughing!

I asked her if she was feeling better given that I had only been away for such a short while, and she replied “yes”— a 100 per cent better! Initially, the doctor said that she would need to rest for an entire day after the IV drip, but she felt completely fine right after the treatment, and was bursting with energy.

I was so excited and I shared with my friend that the first thing my pastor prayed for today was gastritis and she was equally surprised! As for my knee, it was no longer sore and painful after the prayer. I believe that the pain shall not come back anymore. Amen!

We got to enjoy the rest of our holiday because of God’s grace and incredible mercy. Thank you, Pastor Prince. I am so blessed to be a part of this house. Praise the Lord!

Sore throat disappeared

I had been having a sore throat for a few days. When Sunday came, I decided to go to church at GV Yishun and wore a mask throughout the service.

When Pastor Prince started to pray for the sick, the first condition he called out was a sore throat! I was so happy that God knew my discomfort. I immediately claimed the healing because I knew that it was for me!

Despite not feeling anything out of the norm like what others had experienced, I just believed that I was healed.

That same evening, all the discomfort in my throat was gone. There was not even the slightest pain left. Thank You, Jesus, for the complete healing. All glory to God.

Spirit of Grief Lifted

I lost my ah ma (Hokkien for grandmother) over two years ago. She was the most important person in my whole life. I felt orphaned and completely alone in the world even though I still had people who loved me.

I couldn't wait for God to take me home because I had lost my sense of purpose in life. My eyes kept seeing evil around me, and my heart grew hard and cold. I had lost the vision that I used to have with God. People suggested that I see a counsellor, eat better, exercise and journal, amongst other things. I tried everything, but nothing changed.

It would take me hours to fall asleep, only to wake up in the middle of the night and have to wait for another hour before I was tired enough to sleep again.

For two years, I simply tried to get through each day, and sometimes I even had to tell myself to take it one hour at a time. There was nothing to look forward to.

Then, on Sunday, 15 October, I attended the 11.30am service at The Star Performing Arts Centre. Pastor Prince was just about to go into the Word when he paused and mentioned that there was someone in the congregation who had been experiencing depression and grief due to the loss of someone very important, and he declared that the day of deliverance and restoration was coming.

I was completely caught off guard when Pastor Prince said that. My tears just kept falling. God’s presence flowed in like an unstoppable force. I could feel the dark cloud lifting away for the first time.

I clung to Pastor Prince's words, and gradually, I felt a renewed sense of freedom. On my drive home, for the first time in over two years, I could envision a purposeful and free future for myself.

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your faithfulness to God and being a vessel for His people.

Lower back pain and numbness disappeared

I had been experiencing persistent pain from my lower back down to my feet, occasionally accompanied by numbness in my toes.

The pain was particularly intense upon waking up in the morning, and throughout the day, I would sometimes experience tightness in the muscles at the back of my lower leg. I tolerated this pain for several months, but I have never sought treatment for it. 

On Sunday, 15 October, during the 2.30pm online service, I felt the familiar tightness in my right leg. But during a time of ministering, Pastor Prince prayed for someone who was experiencing pain in the right side of their hip.

Miraculously, I experienced immediate relief, and the pain vanished completely! Thank You, Jesus!

Lower back pain gone

I have been experiencing sciatica pain, or lower back pain, that travels from my hip to my feet, causing numbness and weakness.

On Sunday, 15 October, I arrived at The Star Performing Arts Centre early. When I tried to sit down, the pain was excruciating. I couldn't sit still and tried massaging the inflamed area of my lower back, but it didn't provide any relief.

When Pastor Prince began ministering and praying for the sick, I prayed to Jesus for His divine healing to pour down on me. At first, I felt like crying, and then I experienced a tingling or shivering sensation that travelled from my crown to my feet.

Suddenly, I noticed the inflammation disappearing until it was completely gone!

Praise Jesus!

Pain in knee gone

During the early morning hours on Saturday, 26 August, I jammed my left knee while reading the Bible facing down in bed. Though I could feel the ball of my knee move and get jammed, by the grace of God, I was able to walk around.

On Sunday, 27 August 2023, I attended church. As Pastor Prince led in a time of ministering, the ball of my left knee rolled back in position, and I heard a cracking sound.

Praise the Lord! Thank You, Jesus. Thank you, Pastor Prince.

Voice restored

On Saturday, 26 August 2023, I had a karaoke session with a few friends at home. By the end of the day, I lost my voice and felt that my throat was burning.

Soon after, I also felt cold and when I checked my temperature, I was surprised to find that I was running a temperature. I quickly took Panadol and went to sleep.

The next morning, my voice remained gone, and it was painful for me to even swallow my saliva.

I tuned in to New Creation Church Online and when Pastor Prince said that God was healing those suffering from a sore throat and could not swallow, I lifted my hands up to worship Him.

As I opened my eyes, I realised that the pain in my throat was gone. I was able to swallow my saliva without pain and was even able to eat and drink!

Praise Jesus! Thank you, Pastor Prince, for ministering the Lord’s healing, and thank You, Jesus, for healing me!

Pain in knee gone instantaneously

I had been experiencing pain in my left knee for more than two weeks. When I went to the doctor to get it checked, I was told that the cause was a strained knee ligament.

As I hadn’t done any sports, this sudden onset of pain was quite unexpected.

On Sunday, 27 August 2023, I attended church and when Pastor Prince called out healing for knee conditions, I moved my knee vigorously. I also jumped up and down only to find that there was no more pain!

All glory to Jesus! He heals not only in the past, but in this very present day too. Praise the Lord!

Pain in shoulder gone

I had been experiencing pain in my right shoulder blade after my gymnastic class on 25 August 2023.

Two days later, I attended church and Pastor Prince started praying for the sick.

At that moment, I decided to move my arms and I could sense the pain in my shoulder gradually diminishing. I continued to move my arms in faith, believing that God would heal me completely.

Soon after, I could feel the pain leaving my shoulder and I was completely healed!

Praise the Lord for healing me!

Able to move neck with ease

On Tuesday, 22 August 2023, I was experiencing pain in my neck and I couldn’t move it with ease.  So, I went to the doctor and got some medicine. However, it wasn’t very effective.

On Sunday, I had intended to take the medicine again, but somehow forgot about it.

Then, I attended church and during the service, Pastor Prince mentioned that there was healing of neck conditions, and I claimed it for myself.

Almost immediately, I felt much better, and by the next day, I was able to move my neck with ease. There was no more pain and I did not take any medication for it.

Thank You, God, and thank you, Pastor Prince!

No more stiffening of throat muscles

A few months ago, I experienced some throat issues and consulted an ENT specialist to see what the problem was. I underwent a series of tests, including X-rays, MRI scans, and blood tests.

The doctor delivered a troubling diagnosis and said that my throat muscles were hardening and tightening due to past radiation treatment. As a result, I would feel discomfort and was even at risk of choking on my food. He told me that there were lots of bubbles and liquid forming around my throat, which was not good.

At that moment, my heart sank as the doctor continued to advise me that this condition could not be improved and would only worsen until I am unable to swallow safely and would need to use a feeding tube to get my nutrition.

Thankfully, having been well taught by Pastor Prince and many of the other New Creation Church pastors, my inner man turned my attention to the Word, particularly John 10:10, which reminds us that the thief comes to steal, kill and destroy, but our Lord Jesus came to give us life and life more abundantly. This scripture lifted my spirit, and despite the grim diagnosis, I felt a sense of peace and security, knowing that everything would ultimately be alright because my Lord Jesus has redeemed me from all these sicknesses and pains at Calvary.

Subsequently, I was referred to another doctor who specialises in the stomach and he required another scope to examine my throat and stomach for any abnormalities. As I prepared for this procedure, I immersed myself in praise and worship, and mediation of the Word.

During a Sunday service on 27 August 2023, Pastor Prince called out my throat condition and prayed for my healing. I was watching the service online and was going to see the stomach doctor the following day for my scope results. I was no longer afraid and even had the confidence and expectation of receiving a good report from the doctor.

Thanks and praise to God, I really received a good report from the doctor. The doctor was surprised that my throat was not narrow and stiff as diagnosed earlier. He also told me that there were no more bubbles or liquid accumulation in my throat, and the tissues around my throat were all good. This was a marked difference from the earlier scope taken by the ENT specialist a few weeks prior.

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for ministering to the sick during the service and always pointing us to our Lord Jesus in the Word!

Acute back pain gone

For over a month, I had been experiencing back pain due to an old injury that had displaced my spinal discs. Using a therapeutic device, I was able to control the inflammation and walk around. But the device could only do so much as the alignment of my discs was already compromised.

Every morning, I would hesitate to get out from bed as I would feel a sharp pain in my nerves when I attempted to stand up. I would sit at the edge of the bed and pray for help.

I would read the Bible and pray for healing. Once, I even thought that my experience mirrored the biblical account of Jacob when his hip was dislocated.

Then, on 13 August, during a time of ministering, Pastor Prince prayed for healing over the people. Although I was at the third service where there was no live preaching, he called out my exact condition! He even described my situation where I pondered about Jacob’s plight and sat on the edge of the bed, being hesitant to get up due to the pain.  

Then, Pastor Prince encouraged all of us to move in ways that we hadn’t been able to. So, I decided to bend backwards—something which I have not been able to do for the longest time as it would cause my discs to push against my nerves. But this time round when I did that, the sharp pain was gone!

Praise the Lord! Thank You, Jesus, and thank you, Pastor Prince!

Neck pain gone

I have been suffering from a stiff neck for a month. Every morning, I would wake up with pain and discomfort.

I visited a doctor for pain relief medication, tried traditional Chinese medicine treatments, and even went for a massage, but nothing could help me alleviate the pain.

On Sunday, 13 August, I woke up again with pain in my neck. Despite the discomfort, I still reported for my serving duty with our church’s children’s ministry, Rock Kidz.  

After serving, I attended the service where Pastor Prince prayed for the sick. I claimed my healing and began stretching and rotating my neck. There was no more pain or discomfort! I was healed!

Lower back pain gone

For the past few weeks, I have been experiencing lower back pain that would come and go.

There were times when I found relief after praying over this condition. However, the pain would return whenever I had to stand and work.

On Sunday, 13 August 2023, while watching New Creation Church’s 8.30pm online service, Pastor Prince encouraged the people to check the areas where they felt pain and move them by faith.

When I moved my back, I realised that the pain had disappeared!

I believe it won’t return, in Jesus’ name. Thank you, Pastor Prince for your ministry. Praise the Lord! All glory to Jesus!

Pain in heels gone

I have had really bad pain in my heels for the past two years. Every time I got up from a sitting or lying position, the pain would intensify and I would have to walk around with a limp.

On Sunday, 13 August 2023, I was tuning in to New Creation Church Online. During a time of ministering, Pastor Prince said that God was healing those with leg pain.

When my husband heard that, he encouraged me to check my feet. It was then that I realised the pain had completely disappeared! Thank You, Jesus!

Son’s acute stomach pain gone

I am writing on behalf of my son who attends DARE, our church’s youth group for secondary school students.

For the past few years, he has been experiencing stomach aches every morning. I have tried giving him medicine and medicated oil, but nothing seemed to work.

On Sunday, 13 August 2023, my son went to church with his stomach still hurting. When Pastor Prince called out healing for those with gastric conditions, to our surprise, my son felt the pain vanishing.

At first, he thought it might be just a coincidence, but days have passed and the pain has not come back!

God is so good! Thank You, Jesus, and thank you, Pastor Prince.

No more shortness of breath caused by bloating

Throughout my working life, I have experienced intermittent bloating in my stomach. It reached a point where I would experience shortness of breath and wheezing during these episodes, making me irritable all the time.

Later, I found out that the bloating was due to a gastric issue. Doctors advised me to monitor my diet to alleviate the symptoms. However, the situation would improve only briefly before returning, leaving me gasping for breath once more.

During the service on 13 August 2023, Pastor Prince spoke about gastritis and mentioned how someone had faced such issues from time to time in the past. As I listened, I felt a warmth in my body. Since then, my condition has improved and I no longer experience breathlessness.

Praise God and blessings to Pastor Prince!

Blood sugar level dropped to normal range

Some time back, I was diagnosed with prediabetes during a routine blood test. Though worried, I believed that by Jesus’ stripes, I am healed.

On Sunday, 23 July 2023, I attended the 11.30am service at GV Yishun. That day, Pastor Prince specially prayed for people with prediabetes. I strongly believed that the word was for me and received the prayer.

A few weeks later, I went back for another blood test and this time, my sugar level dropped back to the normal range!

Thank You, Jesus, for healing me. And thank you, Pastor Prince, for your wonderful ministry!

Pain in fingers gone

For the past six months, I had been experiencing pain in my fingers, especially in my right thumb, which would produce a cracking sound whenever I bent it.

Every week, I would pray that Pastor Prince would call out my condition during the service. While waiting for that to happen, I also followed Pastor Prince’s teachings to partake of the holy Communion and believed Jesus for healing. Gradually, I began to notice an improvement in my condition.

On Sunday, 25 June, I felt led to wake up early to attend the first service at The Star Performing Arts Centre.

That day, Pastor Prince prayed for healing for individuals with heart and liver conditions, as well as those experiencing finger pain.

I received the healing for both of my hands and praise the Lord, all the pain vanished!

A few days later, I examined my fingers again and there was absolutely no pain! Praise the Lord!

Body pain disappeared after prayer

Occasionally, I would experience unexplainable pain in my neck and on the left side of my body next to my heart.

On Sunday, 25 June, I woke up with a sharp pain next to my heart and it was really uncomfortable. I tried massaging the area and taking deep breaths, but the pain just didn’t go away.

Then, I tuned in to the online service where Pastor Prince invited everyone to worship together. He even prayed for those with bodily pain. I received the prayers and thanked God for the healing.

Gradually, the pain started to disappear. By the time Pastor Prince began asking the congregation to testify of their healing, all the pain was gone. I could watch the sermon without any discomfort.

Thank You, Lord, and thank you, pastor!

Instantly healed of back and hip pain

I had been struggling with hip and lower back stiffness that came with extreme pain. To make things worse, my job requires me to spend hours sitting behind monitors.

So, on Sunday, 2 July 2023, when I tuned in to the 8.30pm online service, I decided to stand throughout the service.

When Pastor Prince began praying for the sick and said that God was healing someone who was watching the broadcast, I knew the Lord had identified me.

Miraculously, the pain in my back and hip just disappeared. I don't know how, but the pain is completely gone!

I have been a church lad since my teenage years, and I'm now 36, yet this is the first time I've experienced an instantaneous miracle during a service. Thank You, Lord Jesus!

Inflamed finger joints healed

I am a Singaporean living in Germany. My fingers joints had been inflamed for weeks, and I could not bend my fingers.

On Sunday, 2 July 2023, while watching New Creation Church Online, I was hoping that Pastor Prince would pray for healing and I would step out in faith to claim the healing for my finger joints.

So, when he started praying for the people, I began to open and clench my fist by faith, believing there would be no pain. Praise the Lord, I could straighten and bend my fingers without discomfort!

All praise and thanks to the Lord God Almighty! Thank you, Pastor Prince!

Received healing for neck pain

I am from Malaysia but migrated to the United Kingdom a decade ago. Some years back, I started to go through menopause and experienced all the symptoms, such as brain fog, hot flashes and moodiness. They made me feel lethargic.

Then, I remembered that a sister-in-Christ had shared with me about Pastor Prince and his teachings on the holy Communion. So, I started partaking of it, and by the second day, all the symptoms were gone. Thank You, Jesus!

Since last year, I also started experiencing neck pain. I couldn’t fully move my neck to the right as it was very tight, and whenever I tried to turn my neck, I would hear a cracking sound coming from my cervical spine.

I went for chiropractic treatments and physiotherapy, but nothing could fix my condition.

On Sunday, 2 July 2023, Pastor Prince prayed for neck conditions, and by faith, I received the healing and moved my neck to the side. I felt the area loosen, and I could move my neck to the sides without stiffness! Hallelujah!

Back condition healed

I am 19 years old and have been suffering from a back condition, otherwise known as gamers’ back, for several months.

On Sunday, 2 July 2023, I attended the first service with my parents at The Star Performing Arts Centre. When Pastor Prince started praying for the people to receive their healing, I tried to bend downwards by faith. Normally, I would experience pain in my back when I did so, however, this time around, there was no more pain.

My gamers’ back condition was gone! Thank You, Lord Jesus, and God bless you, Pastor Prince, and your family!

Sense of taste and smell fully restored

Recently, I contracted Covid and was down for seven days. During that time, I experienced sore throat, high fever, flu, and a loss of taste and smell. After recovering from the illness, all the symptoms disappeared except for the loss of smell and taste.

On 2 July 2023, I attended the English service at Marina Bay Sands. When Pastor Prince started ministering God’s healing over the people, I stood in faith believing that I too would receive my healing, and indeed, it happened!

I experienced an accelerated healing from God, and my sense of taste and smell were fully restored.

Glory to God!

Left shoulder condition gone

For about a week, I had been experiencing pain in my left shoulder which extended to my chest, neck and upper back areas. The pain was so intense that it affected my sleep for several days.

On 2 July 2023, I tuned in to New Creation Church’s online service. That day, Pastor Prince went into a time of ministering. When he mentioned that someone was suffering from pain in the left shoulder and asked the individual to move the shoulder up and down, I immediately began moving my shoulder. Miraculously, the pain was gone!

I thank God for the healing ministry of Pastor Prince which impacts lives.

Lower back pain gone

Several years ago, I hurt my lower back due to a minor accident. I underwent physiotherapy and was given an exercise routine to do at home. But I wasn't consistent, and the pain dragged on. As a result, my weakened back prevented me from carrying heavy things.

I only started exercising again a couple of weeks ago. During my workouts, I would declare the promise in Isaiah 53:5 that Jesus was wounded for our healing.

On 2 July 2023, at 11.30am, I tuned in to New Creation Church’s online service. I enjoyed the praise and worship and partook the holy Communion with the rest of the church.

When Pastor Prince started ministering healing for lower back pain, I stood up and claimed healing for my condition. Miraculously, I was healed! Praise the Lord!

Thank You, Jesus, for healing me!

Healed of left shoulder injury

I injured my left shoulder about a year ago. On 23 July 2023, I tuned in to New Creation Church Online. During a time of ministry, Pastor Prince called out to those with left shoulder injuries and declared healing and restoration for them. I believed and received the healing by whispering a soft "Amen."

A few days later, I did my usual exercise that helps with my shoulder condition. Normally, I would experience pain and weakness in my shoulder. However, that day, I felt no pain. It seemed that my shoulder had become stronger and was no longer causing me any issues.

It was then that I recalled the moment from Sunday and realised I had been healed! To God be the glory and praise!

Neck Condition Healed

A few days before the service on 23 July 2023, I suddenly developed neck pain. I tried stretching and even consulted a pain relief specialist, but the discomfort persisted.

On that day, Pastor Prince proclaimed there was a healing anointing for neck problems. I believed I had received it right there and then, even though my neck was still aching as he spoke.

I clung to the promise that God’s words are life to those who find them and health to all their flesh. I believed my condition would improve as I listened to the sermon.

By the end of the service, I noticed my neck felt much better, and by the end of the day, all the discomfort and pain had vanished. All glory to Jesus! It's by His stripes that I am healed!

Delivered From Depression And No Longer Diabetic

I am 28 years old this year, and I am working as a doctor in India. I grew up in a Christian household, but I never felt connected to God. Additionally, I was diagnosed with diabetes.

A couple of years back, I suffered my first panic attack, accompanied by depression. I fell into a downward spiral of sadness and self-pity, and it led me to self-mutilation and even contemplating ending my life.

I became convinced that meeting Jesus was the only way to achieve peace in my life, so I attempted suicide but miraculously survived. Later, I left my job and went home to live with my parents.

Over the next year, I began watching all of Pastor Prince’s sermons, and I am happy to share that he has opened my eyes to Jesus all over again. Over time, the Lord healed my heart, and I feel so close to Him. He delivered me from depression, and now I live every day to worship Him.

Not only that, all my diabetic symptoms have disappeared, and I am resuming my work once again. Praise the Lord!

Water Retention In Feet Subsided And Pain In Back Gone

I just returned from overseas where I experienced swollen feet due to water retention, making it difficult to stand or squat for extended periods. I had also been having pain in my right back.

On Sunday, 23 July 2023, I decided to attend the 11.30am online service at home. During the service, Pastor Prince prayed for those with pain in their left shoulder, right back, and swollen feet.

Remarkably, after the session, the swelling in both of my feet subsided tremendously, and the pain in my right back was completely gone.

I am grateful that Jesus didn't forget about me and that His healing power reached me even as I tuned in from home.

Thank You, Jesus, and thank you, Pastor Prince.

Pain In Stomach Gone!

Recently, I had been experiencing a combination of menstrual cramps and a sore tummy, aching almost constantly with varying degrees of intensity.

On Saturday, 22 July, I had a dull ache and when evening came, it became so painful that I had to bend over and hold my abdomen.

The next morning, my tummy was still slightly sore, but I decided to attend church at Marina Bay Sands Ballrooms. During praise and worship, the pain in my abdomen intensified, making me feel increasingly uncomfortable.

During the service, Pastor Prince called for healing for stomach pain. He mentioned that the person had been experiencing pain that became more acute the previous evening, and it progressively increased as the night went on. This exactly mirrored what I had gone through the day before!

When Pastor Prince prayed for stomach pains, I simply said, "Yes, God," and immediately, and I truly mean instantly, the pain vanished. I want to praise the Lord and thank Jesus for loving me so deeply and taking care of me!

Received Double Healing

A couple of months ago, I had a fall while playing football, resulting in scrapes on my left knee, shoulder blade, and elbow. While my knee healed, I continued to feel pain in my shoulder blade and elbow.

On Sunday, 23 July 2023, during a time of ministering in church, Pastor Prince called out left shoulder blade pain. I was stunned because it was so specific! I received the healing and placed my hand over the affected area. Immediately, I noticed an improvement. The pain that I would usually feel when rotating my shoulder was completely gone. I was amazed!

However, my elbow was hurting and it was more intense than the pain in my shoulder. So, I prayed and told the Lord about it. At that time, Pastor Prince was praying for other conditions. Then suddenly, he mentioned that God was healing elbows. I was beyond stunned and completely flabbergasted!

Gradually, the pain in my elbow began to dissipate until it vanished entirely. I had received double healing!

This experience left me in awe because there was no possible scientific explanation to it. All I could do was give thanks to God.

Cleared Of Liver Condition

I watch New Creation Church Online every Sunday.

On Sunday, 23 July 2023, as Pastor Prince began to preach, he shared a word of healing regarding a liver condition.

During that time, my stomach had been hurting a lot, and my doctor had recommended a computerised tomography (CT) scan for my stomach and liver. Hence, I received the word of healing for myself.

That very week, I underwent the scan, and everything turned out well. My condition also improved.

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for sharing that word for me.

Found Hope In The Gospel

I am a Singaporean living in England for the past 25 years. Some years ago, I went through a divorce. During that period, my brother who is living in Australia, would download Pastor Prince sermons and send them to me on USB sticks. Listening to Pastor Prince speak about God's grace and favour gave me hope.

The Lord sent help and brought people into my life and the lives of my children. It was because of my God's faithfulness and love for me, that I was able to raise my children here in England.

A few years back, I was diagnosed with a brain tumour. I was transferred to the nearest hospital that had a neurology department. I felt cold, afraid, alone, sad, and confused. I missed my children and wondered if I would ever see them again. I was deeply discouraged and absolutely terrified.

The doctors saw me immediately and I was told that I needed emergency surgery. I was also informed that I could lose the vision in my right eye during the surgery.

On the day before my surgery, I was woken up by a hospital worker. We got chatting and she told me she was from another country. She asked me if I would like to watch TV. I politely said yes, but really only wanted to go back to sleep. I closed my eyes, but I could hear her talking to me, telling me that none of the channels were working, except for one.

With my eyes shut, I heard a voice coming from the TV—a voice I had heard many, many times, over the years. It was Pastor Prince speaking on my hospital TV!

I opened my eyes, stunned, and the lady said to me, "You should listen to this man preach. My daughter listens to him all the time. God healed her from stomach cancer. Have you heard of this preacher?"

I laughed and said yes, and told her this preacher is from the same country I came from. Hearing Pastor Prince’s voice, seeing his face on TV, and hearing a woman from another country speak about him, just made my day!

It gave me hope again. I knew then that the Lord had not forgotten me, and He was with me. And as He has always done, He sent people into my life to aid me and to give me courage.

I went for my surgery the next day and it was very successful. And now I live to tell of His goodness, with perfect vision in my right eye.

Dad's Heart Perfectly Well

On Saturday, 24 June, my dad experienced sudden acute pain in his chest. Since it was late at night, he refused to go to the hospital and thought that he would get better after resting. I prayed for my dad, but I was worried and unable to sleep. So, I listened to the audio of Pastor Prince's Healing Scriptures to fall asleep.

The following day, I attended the first service at New Creation Church. That day, Pastor Prince ministered healing, and the first condition he called out and prayed for was chest pain and clearance of artery blockages! In my spirit, I knew that God had orchestrated this for my dad, and I immediately received the healing for him.

After the service, when I returned home, my family told me that my dad had gone to the emergency unit in the morning as the chest pain had worsened. He was admitted for further tests. I was very worried, but I knew and believed that my dad was completely healed. I watched the church’s online services, claimed healing for my dad, and partook of the holy Communion.

That evening, when I visited my dad in hospital, he looked very lively compared to the previous day. He told me that his chest pain had subsided and there was almost no pain. The doctor said that the examinations and blood tests revealed no signs of a heart attack or artery blockage, and his heart is very healthy! Hallelujah!

The following day, the doctor discharged my dad as they could not find any issues with his heart and could not determine the cause of his chest pain.

I truly believe that God completely healed my dad when Pastor Prince prayed for this condition during the service. Praise the Lord! Thank You, Jesus, for healing my dad! Thank you, Pastor Prince, for obeying the Holy Spirit, ministering His healing and preaching the true word of God!

Healed From Chronic Fatigue

Twelve years ago, the Lord delivered me from Stage 4 cancer after going through multiple sessions of chemotherapy, which left me with unexplained chronic fatigue even years after the treatment had ended.

The fatigue I experienced for the past 12 years caused me a lot of physical and mental distress. I was not able to carry out my daily duties or care for my children and family without experiencing extreme tiredness that does not go away with sleep or rest.

There were many times when I sat at a bus stop or bench with my young children, afraid if I would be able to make it home with them given the extreme fatigue I was experiencing.

My doctor had no explanation for it and told me that I should just be glad that I am still alive. However, being under Pastor Prince’s ministry has taught me otherwise;  I am not willing to settle for just being alive and that because of Jesus’ finished work at the cross, I shall be able to experience complete restoration in my body.

I had been waiting for my chronic fatigue condition to be called out each time Pastor Prince led the congregation with anointed healing sessions. I once received instant and total healing for the pain in my right knee during one of those sessions, and I strongly believe that I shall be able to experience the same for my issue of chronic fatigue as well.

Finally, on Sunday, 25 June, Pastor Prince called out the condition of chronic fatigue. I knew that it was for me and trusted God that I shall be healed from this long-term affliction.

It has been close to a week now, and I have never been able to accomplish as much as I can now in a day for the last 12 years, without experiencing symptoms of fatigue.

What a typical person could do in a day, I could achieve as well and, in fact, much more! I am thankful for what the Lord has done for me. Indeed, those who trust in the Lord shall never be put to shame.

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for these anointed healing sessions and constantly reminding us of our true inheritance in Christ. God bless you and our church.

Shoulder Pain Miraculously Disappeared

I had been experiencing shoulder pain for a very long time. Despite taking oral medication and using medicated plasters, nothing helped.

On Sunday, 25 June, I tuned in to New Creation Church Online. When Pastor Prince asked those who had pain in their bodies to place their hands on the afflicted area, I immediately placed my hands on my shoulders.

Then, as Pastor Prince prayed for the conditions, I stood in faith and believed that all the symptoms that I was experiencing were lies from the enemy. I took authority and confessed that I have perfect health because of Jesus’ finished work on the cross. 

Even though I was seated in front of my TV, I could feel my body trembling. After that, the pain in my shoulders completely disappeared.

Thank You, God, and thank you, Pastor Prince!

Dull Pain In Back Gone

I experienced a slipped disc several months ago, and although I have since recovered, I remain cautious about making sudden movements that could strain my lower back. Whenever I feel a slight, dull pain in that area, I become anxious, fearing a relapse of my slipped disc.

On Saturday, 24 June, I started experiencing a dull pain in my lower back. The next day, during the church service, Pastor Prince encouraged the congregation to place their hands on any part of their bodies that had pain. Without hesitation, I put my hand on my lower back, where the pain was.

After Pastor Prince rebuked the pain and prayed over it, I decided to step out in faith and move my body in ways that would typically cause pain. Miraculously, I did not experience any pain throughout the entire day on Sunday. The pain was completely gone!

No more inflamed appendix, abdominal pain gone

One morning, I woke up with nausea and excruciating abdominal pain. When the pain persisted for 14 hours, I made a trip to the A&E (accident and emergency department). While waiting at the hospital, I read two praise reports on the Joseph Prince app on healing from abdominal pains to build my faith. After blood tests showed there was inflammation in my body, I was admitted into the hospital. The gynaecology team performed an ultrasound scan and found an obscure shadow in my digestive system.

The surgery team conducted some tests and concluded they would need to perform a keyhole surgery to remove my appendix. A patient within close proximity overheard this and with good intentions, showed me a scar she had from removing a cancerous growth from the very same area I was experiencing pain. She also shared post-surgery tips for a quicker recovery.

Despite the advice to undergo surgery and the discouraging sight of a post-operation scar, I continued to behold Jesus, my bronze serpent. As Jesus was pierced at His side on the cross for me, I firmly believed I did not need to experience the same thing, and I began to experience a shalom-peace I could not explain. I also applied anointing oil to the affected part of my abdomen and the pain supernaturally subsided.

Before the surgery, I had to undergo a prerequisite scan. From reading the praise reports the night before, I was emboldened to request for a computerised tomography (CT) scan of my abdomen to confirm the state of my appendix. I hoped against hope that similar to the praise reports I’d read, my scan would be clear.

When the results were out, they confirmed that all my abdominal organs including my appendix were normal. Hallelujah! I believe the Lord has given me a new appendix, which obviated the need for surgery.

I’m in awe to have experienced healing like those healing testimonies we hear in church every Sunday and to be able to send mine in to testify of medical facts that align with biblical truths. By His stripes, we are healed and truly as Jesus is, so are we in this world!

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for faithfully magnifying Jesus, His love, and His finished work. All glory to Jesus!

Experienced acceleration in school and work while resting

Every year, Pastor Prince would share the theme of the year for the church, and in 2022, it was rest and acceleration. Usually, we will not know exactly how the theme would personally apply to us until we go through the year and realise how it has always been so on-point, and this is my testimony.

In early 2022, I was in London for a school exchange programme. Everything was going as planned until I caught Covid one week before my return to Singapore. It was also the week I had to submit the final assessment for one of my modules, and I could not do so as I became very ill.

It was one of the scariest moments in my life as I was all alone. But my family and friends stood in faith with me and sent me food supplies. I grew stronger by the day and felt restful on the inside. On day seven, I tested negative and could fly home as planned.

Not only so, but by the grace of God, I got an A- for the module for which I did not complete the assessment. I rested, and God accelerated.

Then in late 2022, three weeks into my new school semester, I had to go for surgery to remove my appendix. The Lord had protected me from the get-go as I had been involved in two full days of activities, but my inflamed appendix did not burst. It was only on the third day when the pain got so severe that I decided to visit the emergency unit.

Choosing the surgery was a tough decision as I had to rest for two to three months after that. But my school and work schedules had already been planned out till the end of the year.

On top of that, I was worried that I might not be fit enough to take on specific school modules and that my education awards would be clawed back as a result. But I knew that the Lord would not fail me.

Glory to God, the school's dean proposed a plan where I did not need to stay back for another semester, and he even ensured that my education awards would not be clawed back. Not only so, I was even able to showcase my final project for grading. 

I believe that the Lord had made me "rest" mentally and physically through 2022, and He accelerated my grades and work, giving me good bosses who kept me employed throughout my ordeals.

Glory to God, and thank you, Pastor Prince, for letting God use you to remind us of His love.

Blurry vision gone

I was born with a defective left eye with scars across my retina. Hence, for 55 years, I could only rely on my right eye to see. My only good eye, however, is highly myopic, and I had also suffered from acute glaucoma in that same eye once.

My eye doctor fears that over time due to severe myopia, my retina, which has become stretched and thinned, will develop scars too, termed myopic degeneration, which could lead to blindness.

I work in an international construction company, and my job requires me to do close-up work on the computer and read construction drawings.

Recently, I suddenly could not see clearly with my right eye. There was a diagonal patch across my visual field, and my vision became so bad that I could not read texts on my phone and laptop, and I could not walk down the stairs because I could not see well. I had to inform two of my colleagues of my situation so they could help me, as I was seeing very little and my eye was in pain.

During this very tough season, I was listening to Pastor Prince’s various sermons on Gospel Partner. In one of his sermons in 2002, he mentioned the higher way is to believe what God said in His Word, just like the centurion who approached Jesus for the healing of his servant. God also led me to meditate on His promises.

Faith arose in my heart as I kept hearing and hearing the Word of Christ. A couple of weeks later, during one of the Sunday services, Pastor Prince prayed for people with eye conditions, and I received the healing for myself.

The next day, I realised the diagonal patch across my visual field was gone. I could read the texts on my devices and even type out this testimony to testify of the amazing miracle of God in my life.

May all praise and glory be to our heavenly Father, and thank you, Pastor Prince, for teaching the Word of God to bless so many people!

Neck pain gone

I suffered from a recurring pain on the right side of my neck that goes up to the bottom of my skull. I went for an acupuncture treatment recently, but the pain somehow shifted to the left side of my neck.

The pain lingered for a week, which was unusual, and it worsened over the next few days. On Saturday, I asked my husband to apply pressure on my neck to get some relief.

The next day, I attended the 2nd service at Marina Bay Sands Ballrooms. When Pastor Prince ministered in the healing flow, I stood up to enjoy the precious corporate anointing, and was in awe of God's love for us all.

Then, Pastor Prince started to pray for those with neck conditions. When he did that, I could feel the Lord's presence in the ballroom and received an instantaneous deliverance! All pain in my neck was gone! Praise the Lord!

Since I was at Marina Bay Sands and could not wave to testify of God's miraculous healing, I am writing to share my testimony here. Glory to God!

Pain caused by whiplash gone

About 10 years ago, a car accident left me with severe whiplash in my neck and upper back.

Fast forward five years later, my condition was aggravated after going for a CrossFit training. It caused severe headaches, and I would vomit for hours. I was advised to consult a chiropractor who could help me relieve the pain for a few days until the next flare-up.

Recently, as my chiropractor went on a holiday, I was left to my own devices. However, no amount of stretching could help me relieve the pain, and I lost sleep at night.

On Sunday, 26 February 2023, Pastor Prince started to minister to the sick and shared that there was healing for upper back conditions.

When I heard that, I could feel the pain in my back subsiding. Then, I tried to lie down and there was no more pain bothering me!

Incidentally, I also suffered from an inflamed ankle after fracturing it the previous year. But after the pain in my neck and upper back was healed, the pain in my ankle disappeared too!

Shoulder pain gone

I had been experiencing pain in my shoulder blade for years.

On Sunday, 26 March 2023, I attended the first service at Marina Bay Sands Ballrooms. Before his sermon, Pastor Prince prayed for people suffering from joint and shoulder conditions. After he prayed, people in the congregation started testifying of their healing.

However, I was still in pain. But shortly after Pastor Prince started preaching, I felt a cool sensation in my left shoulder blade which then spread to the surrounding area.

Then, I realised the pain in my shoulder blade was no longer there, and the tightness in the area was also gone after so many years! 

God has healed me! Praise the Lord!

Grandpa’s body aches gone

My grandpa had been having body aches for over a week and had difficulty moving about.

We attended the online service from home on 26 March. When Pastor Prince prayed for those with joint conditions and mobility issues, my grandpa stood up to claim the healing for himself.

When Pastor Prince asked the congregation to check their afflicted areas and do what they could not do previously, my grandpa felt slightly better.

As the service went on, he continued moving his body. After the service ended, he realised he could move without pain and even jog around the room!

He has asked me to write in to testify of the Lord’s goodness! Praise the Lord!

Toenail growth accelerated after prayer during service

Some time back, I hurt my toe while going on a brisk walk wearing a pair of tight sneakers. My toe became bruised and infected. Over the weeks, my toenail dropped off, and the new nail was barely growing. On top of that, there were still signs of blood clot on the sides of the toe.

My pedicurist said it would take a long while for the new nail to grow, and I should go for at least 10 sessions of treatment to stimulate the growth of the nail.

On Sunday, 26 March 2023, I attended the 1st service at Marina Bay Sands Ballrooms. That day, Pastor Prince ministered to the sick and prayed for the resurrection of nails.

I received the prayer and that evening, I noticed that there were some changes to my toe. The blood clot had disappeared and the toe looked completely normal. The following day, a white patch of toenail started to appear, and in just four days, it became very obvious.

Praise the Lord, my toenail has been restored and I don’t need to go for treatments anymore!

Soreness in neck gone after three years

I had been experiencing soreness in my neck for the longest time, and over the last three years, I had been praying for healing.

On 26 March 2023, I was tuning in to the online service when Pastor Prince called out healing for necks. I turned and twisted my neck, but I could not tell the difference because it had been sore for so long.

So, I knelt down and leaned my head backwards. Praise the Lord, I could hold that position without feeling any strain on my neck!

That was how I knew that God had answered my prayer! The healing came at such perfect timing as I am currently part of the pastoral care team in Rock Kidz, our children’s ministry, and we have been asking God for the gift of healing to heal the sick. I am so grateful that God moved in my life first!

Praise the Lord!

Mum’s condition improved significantly

A couple of years ago, my mother suffered a stroke that left her bedbound. As my siblings are in different parts of the world, we had no choice but to put her in a nursing home in Nigeria.

It broke my heart, and I cried every day. Things got to a head when I received pictures of my mother with bed sores. She was also diagnosed with dementia.

I broke down mentally and emotionally because I am a qualified nurse, but I could not care for my own mother. I knew I could not fight this battle with human effort, so I began to listen to Pastor Prince's messages, and I would partake of the holy Communion on behalf of my mother, declaring wholeness to her body.

During that time, I tuned in to New Creation Church Online, and one of the pastors, Pastor Lian, declared total healing over every kind of memory loss. When I heard that, I fell to my knees in tears knowing that Jesus wanted me to know I was loved.

The following day on a video call, my mum smiled when prior to this, she had been paralysed on the left side of her face. Within a week, she was visibly using her right hand, in which the doctors said there was very little power. The doctors also reversed the diagnosis of dementia, and they said the strength in her left hand is greatly improving.

Every day my mother gets better and better. No man could have done this; it is the work of Jesus. His love, His grace and finished work have made us whole. Praise Jesus!

God Healed My Back Pain

I had been experiencing lower back pain for a few days because of long hours sitting in front of the computer and lack of exercise.

On Sunday, 5 February 2023, I attended the second service at The Star Performing Arts Centre. Before his sermon, Pastor Prince prayed for people suffering from joint and shoulder pain. After he prayed, people in the congregation started testifying about their healing.

However, I was still in pain and kept asking the Lord, “Why am I not healed? I want to be healed too!”

Shortly after Pastor Prince started preaching, I felt a cool sensation in my lower back. After a while, the feeling spread to my thigh and calf, and I realised the pain was no longer there.

Today, I am healed. Praise The Lord!

Thank you, Pastor Prince!

Backache Gone

I had been experiencing severe pain in my back, which then spread to my abdomen.

I could not stand, sit, or even move normally, as the pain would be excruciating when I tried to move. At night when I lay in bed, I could also not turn myself as it would aggravate the pain. I tried using hot water bags and painkillers to ease the pain but to no avail. This went on for a few days.

Then on Sunday, 5 February 2023, Pastor Prince ministered to the sick and prayed for those suffering from backaches.

When he was praying, I could feel the power of the Holy Spirit and warmth descending on me.

When Pastor Prince asked us to move and check our afflicted area, I bent down, and there was no more pain in my back! The pain vanished entirely, and I was healed!

After that day, I could resume work and was fit again. All glory to Jesus for healing me!

A couple of years ago, while changing a nappy on a baby at work, I felt an excruciating pain in my lower back when I turned to take a fresh nappy off the shelf. The pain travelled down my left leg. 

Though I completed my task, I was hobbling and bent over. Somehow by praying for strength and courage, I managed to complete the day while hiding my pain. 

That was the last day I worked for the next seven months. During those days, I could barely walk without crutches and had lost my independence as I was no longer able to drive. 

I was prescribed painkillers which did not help, and was signed off work with sciatica, a nerve pain that runs from the lower back to the feet. I was sent to weekly physio but could not perform the exercises.

I felt very low and frustrated as I could not work, play with my grandchildren, or perform simple tasks. 

I made an appointment to see a back specialist several months later, and I was banking on them to fix me. But by the end of my appointment, I was at the lowest I had ever been, as the specialist told me that my spine was so damaged that there was no way she could operate on me, and that I needed to accept that my previous active lifestyle would no longer be possible.  

At that time, my daughter had been watching New Creation Church Online and asked me to watch it too. 

One Sunday, I tried to go online to watch the service but encountered a problem. By the time I tuned in, I had missed muchof the service. But after about 20 minutes, Pastor Prince went into a time of healing. 

He told the congregation to place their hand on where the problem was. So, I put my left hand on my lower back and joined the prayer. When he finished praying, Paster Prince said to do something that we could not do. 

Although I had not felt anything, I bent and touched my toes. Praise God, I was able to touch my toes! I jumped, hopped, and cried tears of joy and wonderment. God had healed me. 

I returned to work a week later. I can garden, drive, and live my active life once more. I forgot to say I am now 71 years old!

Cyst in throat disappeared

Some months back, I discovered a cyst in my throat. According to the doctor, I would need to go for an operation to have it removed if the cyst starts growing or when it affects my breathing or eating.

That day, I went home and had some quiet moments with the Lord. Then, I recalled a testimony that Pastor Prince had shared several times in his messages. It was from a sister whose lump in the breast disappeared after writing on her medical report that as Jesus is without lumps in His body, so is she.

I decided to do likewise and wrote down "As Jesus does not have cysts in His throat, so do I!"

Around a month later, I went back to the doctor. Before the doctor could check my throat, I asked him if the cyst could go off by itself and he replied that the possibility is very slim, and that it has to be removed surgically.

Then, he took a photo of my throat and we looked at it together on his computer. I remember him looking puzzled as he compared the latest photo with what was taken a month ago. Finally, he said that the cyst was gone! 

I told my doctor that God had healed me! Thank You, Jesus, who never fails to perform miracles in my life!

No more high cholesterol

Some time ago, I went for a body check-up as I was turning 40 years old. When the report came back, the doctor told me that I had high cholesterol, but other than that, my body was 99.9 per cent healthy.

I was given some medication and advised to return for another cholesterol test two months later.

I took the report and wrote, "As Jesus is without high cholesterol, so am I in this world."

Shortly after, I went to church, hoping Pastor Prince would minister in the healing flow, and he did just that!

That day, I was also suffering from heartburn. So when Pastor Prince called out for stomach and chest conditions, I stood up to receive the healing by faith, and immediately, all my heartburn symptoms were gone!

But that was not all. The next day, I decided to visit the doctor to retake the cholesterol test. Before the visit, I also partook of the holy Communion.

When I saw the doctor, he was reluctant to do a retest for me as it was only 22 days away from my last test, and he recommended that I come back again after two months. But I told him I wanted to take it there, and he agreed.

The next day, I returned for my results, and the doctor couldn't believe the report! He said my cholesterol level was normal, and I do not have high cholesterol! He even asked me what I did, and I told him it was Jesus!

He told me that he had never seen a patient like me whose cholesterol level would fall back to normal within 22 days and told me to continue doing what I had been doing.

That day, I left the clinic 100 per cent healthy and whole. It also dawned on me that the 22nd letter in the Hebrew alphabet is "tav", and I believe that Jesus is the "aleph and the tav". He has the first and the last words in my life.

I want to thank Pastor Prince for revealing Jesus and sharing that this is the Year of Rest and Acceleration!

Two-year lower back pain healed

I’ve had a pain in my right back for about two years. The pain was so bad that whenever I walked, I would lean towards the left side. The pain would be there all the time no matter what I was doing, be it walking, bending over or lying down.

Throughout that time, I tried every pain-relieving patch that could be found on shelves, but nothing helped. I even tried different types of stretching exercises that can be found online and sought treatment from a chiropractor, but they did not help either.

A few months back, I decided to go get it checked. I went for an X-ray and the doctor told me there was something wrong with my nerve. However, I was busy with work and did not bother to do anything about the pain.

On Sunday, 9 October 2022, Pastor Prince prayed for healing during the service. I received the prayer, but I did not notice any difference that day. However, the next day, when I was at work, I realised that the pain was gone. I have been healed!

All glory to God. Thank you, Pastor Prince.

Shoulder and back pain gone

My back had been aching for a few weeks after I fell down the stairs and injured myself. On Sunday, 9 October 2022, my back was still hurting even when I was sitting upright. That day, I tuned in to New Creation Church’s online service.

Then, Pastor Prince started praying for people with back and shoulder pains, and I immediately raised my hand to receive the healing. Right there and then, I felt a sense of relief in my back.

Next, I stood up and moved my body, and stretched my back. Praise the Lord, I could not feel the pain and I could sit upright without having to lean to one side. Praise the Lord. Indeed, the Lord is my healer!

Healed of multiple conditions during ministering

I had been experiencing stiffness in my neck and shoulder, and soreness in my right arm for a prolonged period of time. Despite going for a massage at a medical centre and doing regular stretching, the conditions did not go away.

On Sunday, 9 October 2022, I attended the first service at The Star Performing Arts Centre and Pastor Prince went into a ministering flow. During the service, he pronounced healing over those who were suffering from stiffness in the neck and shoulder area and soreness in the arm.

On top of that, he also prayed for those who had constipation. It was a condition that I had had since young. So, I claimed my healing from head to toe.

By afternoon, I felt that my stomach was no longer bloated and I was no longer constipated. When Monday morning came, all the stiffness in my neck and shoulder was gone, and so did the pain in my right arm.

Praise the Lord!

Received Christ And Healing

I was invited to New Creation Church by my friend a few months ago. I was very blessed by the messages that I heard in church, and I felt a sense of peace whenever I attended the services. Eventually, I received Christ.

Recently, I injured my leg while doing a long-distance run on a rainy day.

As that was my first time getting hurt, I did not have the patience to wait for it to be healed completely. I continued to run for long distances regularly. As a result, my condition got worse and the pain bothered me very much.

One Sunday, I attended the first service in church. While Pastor Prince was preaching, I experienced a soothing sensation run down my leg. I quickly told my friend next to me and he was amazed! God healed my leg there and then. Today, all the pain in my leg is gone and I am so thankful to God and Pastor Prince.

I also want to thank my friend who brought me to New Creation Church!

No More Growth On Chest

My husband and I are grace covenant believers and have been married for more than fifty years. We believe in the power of the holy Communion and have seen miracles happen through partaking the Lord’s Supper daily, but over the years we had stopped doing it regularly. Recently, I told my husband we needed to start receiving Communion again.

I have had a mole on the left side of my chest for the past forty years. It started out about the size of a pea but over the years, it enlarged to about two inches in diameter. It bothered my doctor more than it bothered me. I insisted it was fine, so long as the color didn’t change. Lately, the growth began to change. It started thickening, crusting, and even bleeding. It was painful and irritating, and I was concerned.

One day, my husband and I were watching Pastor Prince’s broadcast on television. He called out someone who had a growth on the left side of the chest and said, “God wants you to know He is healing that now.” He then cursed the growth to its roots and commanded it to die. I knew that was for me! I told my husband, “I feel God healing me now. I feel it happening!” We both praised God for His healing.

After that day, the large, ominous mole started to die slowly. It began flaking little by little every day, to the point where there are only a few tiny specs of it left. There is now new skin under where the mole was!

My husband and I have been partaking of the Communion daily. We so enjoyed reading Pastor Prince’s books Destined to Reign and Eat Your Way to Life and Health, listening to his broadcasts daily, and attending Grace Revolution Church’s online services. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for teaching the grace message!

Delivered from breast cancer after her name was called out during service

In October 2020, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. Devastated by the news, I cried there and then. I didn’t want to die. I was 50 years old, and I was so looking forward to enjoying a wonderful retirement life. This couldn’t be happening to me. It shook me to the core. My mind refused to accept it, and I told myself again and again that I am going to live to glorify God.

When I lived in Singapore, I had been attending New Creation Church, but since returning to Malaysia, I had not been attending any church service. One day, I met a sister who told me to attend New Creation Church’s online service.

At that time, I did not know about the online service. So I quickly tuned in, praying and hoping that one day, my condition would be called out, and God would heal me.

Three weeks later, on 15 November 2020, towards the end of the service, Pastor Prince said that there was someone who has a tumour in her body and has been praying for God to heal her, and the person’s name is Jennifer! That’s my name! My jaw dropped. I was praying that he would call out a patient with breast cancer, but I didn’t expect to hear my name. I felt a great whoosh from my head to toes as if God sent fire through my body. I was shaking even as I was holding my phone to record Pastor Prince’s prophetic prayer for me. I believe God had healed me and also set me free from my fear.

I went for a surgery to remove my tumour and after that, all my tests would come back clear. I continued to go for treatment over the next 18 months, partaking of the holy Communion every time. Throughout the treatment, I experienced no side effects. I went for radiotherapy 25 times without having my skin burnt! All my tests consistently produced a clean report. Today, I am delivered from cancer.

Throughout the ordeal, I would often watch the video where Pastor Prince called out my name. I even shared it with other cancer patients to encourage them, to let them know that God knows them by name too. And most importantly, I shared it with my dad, who was not a believer then. Today, I am delivered from cancer and my dad has also received his salvation. Hallelujah! Thank you, Pastor Prince!

No More Eczema On Daughter's Skin

My daughter, Darlene, is four-and-a-half years old and she has had sensitive skin since she was born. She also developed eczema on her legs since she was around three years old.

Last year, the eczema spread to her hands. For at least two to three months, Darlene was not able to sleep as the eczema was extremely bad. She would wake up many times in the night crying badly as her skin felt itchy and hot.

I had brought Darlene to see the doctor many times, but her condition remained the same. I would apply moisturising cream on her skin and pray. At times, it seemed like Darlene's skin was getting better, but then suddenly, it would worsen.

Recently, I brought Darlene to Rock Kidz children’s classes. We had attended the class two Sundays before, but that particular Sunday, I felt really helpless about Darlene’s condition, and didn't know what to do anymore. So when I checked Darlene into the class, I asked the teacher there to pray for her.

After class, Darlene came out feeling looking very happy. She was very happy when she shared how the Rock Kidz teacher gathered another teacher and another girl, whom she now calls a friend, to pray for her.

Two days later, when I was going through the normal routine of applying cream for Darlene, I realised that her hand was amazingly healed! In fact, it was completely healed!

In the past, Darlene would get better for a brief moment, but this time around, it is not the same. The healing is spectacular!

Darlene has completely healed. She is so happy, and she is able to sleep soundly at night, and has grown in her consciousness of Jesus. She even said that she wants to share this testimony so that everyone can receive and be blessed. To Jesus be all the glory!

Sense Of Grief And Anger Lifted After Prayer

I had been struggling with grief and anger for over 20 years.

Recently, I came to Singapore for a vacation to visit my friend’s family. I have been watching New Creation Church’s online service back home, and I decided to visit New Creation Church while here.

On Sunday, 8 May, I woke up feeling depressed and told my friend that I had lost my will to live. I specifically said, “I no longer want to wake up, but I also find it hard to sleep.”

That day, I attended New Creation Church. I was blessed by the powerful sermon by Pastor Prince, and felt that the message was for me. Then, Pastor Prince paused before closing the service and said that there was someone who was in need of healing. After which, I assumed that he would close the service, but he paused again!

This time around, he said that there was someone thinking of hurting herself or taking away her life, and that the person had been battling with depression for some time. Pastor Prince also encouraged the person to receive healing and be released from that bondage.

When I heard that, I received the prayer. At that moment, I felt all the grief and anger within me being lifted from my body! Hallelujah. God is so good! Thank You, God, and thank you, Pastor Prince.

Pain in nerve gone

I had been suffering from a nerve pain for a year.

Not long ago, I attended the online service where Pastor Prince started to pray for the people and mentioned that there was healing for all kinds of conditions and sickness. 

He also mentioned that someone had been suffering from a nerve condition for a long time. When I heard that, I knew that Pastor Prince was referring to me!

Pastor Prince also described all the symptoms that I had been experiencing, and he went on to pray for the person. I immediately received the prayer for myself. 

At that moment, I felt God’s presence with me, and I knew that I was healed. The next morning, I woke up without any pain in my nerve for the first time in a year! I would usually wake up with a dull pain, but the pain was gone! 

Praise be to God! Thank you, Pastor Prince!

Years of back pain healed after reading a devo

The first time I attended church was at The Star Performing Arts Centre. Back then, I remember crying uncontrollably during worship. I was told that I was touched by the Holy Spirit. Though I didn’t fully understand the sermon, I accepted Christ as Saviour. 

At that point in my life, I was suffering from a backache which I later found out was caused by a bulging vertebra. I had to learn to manage the pain and wear a back harness. Over time, the back pain worsened as I went through three pregnancies and two bad falls. I had been undergoing chiropractic treatments for years, but they could do nothing to relieve the pain. 

I remember when I was completely down, I would lie in bed for days. I was emotionally affected as I could not spend time with my children. 

One morning, I was awakened by a sharp pain on my back. I felt so lost and helpless by this pain that had incapacitated my life for years. At that instant, I received an email on my mobile phone. 

It was a devotional from Pastor Prince titled, “Get God’s Medicine In You”. The passage for the day was Proverbs 4:20–22, “My son, give attention to my words; incline your ear to my sayings. Do not let them depart from your eyes; keep them in the midst of your heart; for they are life to those who find them, and health to all their flesh.”

In the devo, Pastor Prince shared how George Muller, a man of God, enjoy a long and healthy life by following God’s ways.

I remember reading this devo and telling myself that I needed this. Then, I went back to sleep. When I woke up in the morning, the pain in my back was completely gone. 

I could get up from bed without any assistance! I had received a miracle healing from the Lord!

From then on, my family and I have been listening to Pastor Prince’s teachings and we have experienced many miracles, healing, and restorations in our lives. It has been an enriching journey. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your teachings. May our good Lord bless you and your loved ones with much, much more. Amen!

Healed of polycystic ovary syndrome and gave birth to second-born healthily

After giving birth to my firstborn in 2019, my doctor found out that I actually had polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), a condition in which the ovaries produce an abnormal amount of androgens. Due to this, the gynaecologist told me and my husband that it would be very hard for us to have another baby.

It got me troubled for a while. However, there was also a peace within me. I believed that if God could do it the first time, then it is possible for Him to do it again.

At the end of the last year, I penned down my prayer requests on my Three Prayer Requests card. One of them was to have another baby in 2021. As Pastor Prince prayed over our prayer requests, I felt assured and knew that God could and would make it happen.

True enough, I found out that I was pregnant a few weeks later and in September, I gave birth to my second baby! At our post-partum check-up, my doctor also confirmed that I am completely healed of PCOS. Thank You, Jesus!

Both knees healed miraculously

I had two car accidents in my life, and both of them damaged my knees badly. The first one was in 1999, and the second one was two years ago. For almost two months after the recent accident, I could barely walk, could not bend or even do my job properly.

I would often work through this pain by speaking the promises of God. I believe that He took all the infirmities at the cross and by His stripes, I am healed.

During an online service (9 January 2022), Pastor Prince asked the congregation to place their hand on an area of the body that needed healing. I touched my knees immediately. As I did that, Pastor Prince said that he saw someone who had injured knees, sitting down all the time.

At that moment, I closed my eyes, and asked the Lord to take away the pain in my knees. I said amen to all that Pastor Prince declared, and was at rest.

I then stood up and walked, and realised that I was free from pain! I started to walk around with joy in every step, giving praises to Jesus. As I write this, tears of joy are flowing. Thank You, Jesus, for using Pastor Prince for Your glory. Praise and glory to Jesus!

Excruciating knee pain healed

One Saturday (26 February 2022), I went on my weekly cycle of about 60km. Halfway through the ride, I felt a dull ache in my left knee which worsened into a sharp pain later on.

The pain kept increasing and I was worried that I could not make it home. I started praying, declaring that the pain would not get worse.

I managed to make it back home. At that point, I could not walk up the stairs or bend my knee without pain. Before going to bed, I asked the Lord to heal my knee.

The next day, I tuned in to New Creation Church’s online service and the pain was still there. At the end of the service, Pastor Prince prayed for someone with a knee condition, and asked that person to try bending the knee.

I did so, and placed my hand on my affected knee. Later in the day, I took the stairs from the ground floor to my house, and realised that the excruciating pain was completely gone! Praise the Lord!

Knee pain gone

Several years ago, I had a fall and hit the left side of my right knee on the pavement. I held on to God’s word and believed God for healing. After a while, I noticed that my knee didn’t hurt anymore.

However, a few months ago, I was at the gym and felt some discomfort in the same spot again. Over the last couple of weeks, the discomfort became more frequent, to the point I became concerned again. 

During an online service (27 February 2022), Pastor Prince said that the Lord was healing someone who was having trouble with his or her knee and I knew it was me! 

I received the healing and began bending my knee, and there was no more pain! Hallelujah!

Knee pain healed

I had been experiencing pain in my left knee for quite some time. It impacted my daily activities, including simple movements such as sitting, standing, or climbing the stairs.

I also could not engage in exercises that were too vigorous. Early this year (27 February 2022), Pastor Prince prayed during an online service for someone with a knee condition.

As I heard that, I received the prayer for myself and in a few short minutes, my left knee instantly felt better. The next day, the pain was significantly less.

Now, as I am writing this testimony, the pain is no longer there and I can engage in more activities! Praise the Lord, and thank you, Pastor Prince!

Healed of genital warts after partaking of the holy Communion

About one and a half years ago, I was diagnosed with genital warts. I tried applying topical creams prescribed by the doctor, but to no avail. I also went through painful treatments to freeze the warts, but they kept coming back. The condition affected my confidence and marriage, and I was devasted. 

One day, as I was listening to Pastor Prince’s preaching, I heard him say that when we partake of the holy Communion, we ought to discern the Lord’s body. He also went on to say that we can partake of the Lord’s Supper every day. 

That statement spoke to me and I started partaking of the holy Communion daily. I would proclaim the finished work of our Lord Jesus Christ, and confess that as He is, so am I. I would also declare that by His stripes, I am healed. 

After I started doing so, the first thing that I experienced was a greater sense of peace. I stopped worrying and was confident that the Lord would take care of my situation. 

Gradually, the genital warts started to disappear. Today, I am happy to share that I am completely free from genital warts! I also thank God for restoring my marriage. Praise the Lord!

Back pain gone instantaneously

Two days after Resurrection Sunday, I woke up with a dull pain in my lower back. The pain was so excruciating that I had difficulty moving around, or even getting up from a chair. I suddenly felt like an old man, hanging on for help with every move I made. 

It is a habit of mine to turn on sermon messages when I’m working at home. So I tuned in to the Resurrection Sunday worship experience on YouTube. 

When Pastor Prince started ministering to the people and declaring God’s healing, I decided to receive the healing. 

Pastor Prince said, “If you’re afflicted in any area, place your hand on that area right now.” So, I laid my hands on my affected lower back. Though I did not feel any warmth or tingly sensation, I sensed that God did something to my body. 

When Pastor Prince asked us to check our bodies, I stooped down and stretched myself to loosen up. When I tried to get up, I realised I could stand without any support. By the time Pastor Prince started preaching, my body was back to normal! I felt like joining the in-person church service to wave my arms and testify of God’s healing! I have been healed!

Thank you, Pastor Prince, and praise the Lord!

Right shoulder pain gone in an instant

For nearly half a year, I had been experiencing pain in my right shoulder. It was so painful that I could not move my arm. 

On Resurrection Sunday, I tuned in to the 2.30pm online service. When Pastor Prince started praying, I boldly claimed the healing for myself. When Pastor Prince said that God was healing someone suffering from a frozen shoulder, I was already able to move, stretch, and rotate my right shoulder without any pain!

The healing was instantaneous and I did a big wave in my room! Indeed, by Jesus' stripes, I am healed! Thank you, New Creation Church and Pastor Prince. Praise the Lord!

No more dengue

In mid-April, I went to see a doctor after developing a fever. I tested negative for Covid, so I simply took some medicine and rested.

The next day, I went back to work. But a few days later, my wife noticed that I had developed rashes on my arm and tummy. I went to a hospital’s  emergency department that evening and was diagnosed with dengue fever.

By then, my platelet count had dropped below the normal range, and I was advised to return two days later for another blood test. When I returned two days later, my platelet count had dropped even further, and I was told that if it continued to decline, I would have to be admitted to the hospital.

The next day was Resurrection Sunday, so I decided to attend the 1st service at The Star Performing Arts Centre. Halfway through the service, Pastor Prince started ministering to the people. When he mentioned that there was healing for dengue fever, I stood up immediately to receive the prayer.

After the prayer, I checked my arms and found that the rashes were all gone! Praise Jesus! And the next day, I went for another blood test and my platelet count had risen back to the normal range and I was discharged on the spot. All glory to Jesus for this supernatural healing! Thank you, Pastor Prince, for the prayers as well!

Years Of Knee Pain Completely Healed

My knee had been hurting for a few years. Although I love to exercise, the pain restricts me from anything too vigorous. Late last year, the pain also affected my sleep as the intense pain would wake me up in the middle of the night.

As I tuned in weekly to Pastor Prince’s sermons, I often wished the Lord would heal me through Pastor Prince’s ministering calls. Recently, my daughter and I attended the online service. At the end of his sermon, Pastor Prince prayed for the sick to receive their healing, and he mentioned my condition!

I stood up, lifted up my hands, and received the prayer for myself. Before Pastor Prince finished his prayer, the pain in my knees was completely gone. My daughter also witnessed the entire healing that took place. Now, I am able to exercise freely, and walking up to 10 km every day! Praise the Lord for His wonderful healing

Healed From Incurable Disease And Wrong Beliefs Turned Right

I was saved at 16. However, I never felt like I was God’s child. At times, I even thought that God hated me. When I sinned, I felt condemned, and would hurt myself, thinking that I could appease God that way. I would also fast, hoping that in doing that, bad things would not happen to me.

It went on for 15 years, and all that time, I was bitter towards God. Then, I was diagnosed with an incurable disease that caused me to lose almost all of my hair. I tried many treatments, but to no avail. I cried almost every day and wanted to end my life. It was like hell on earth for me.

One day, my colleague from another department approached me and asked if I was okay. I told her what was troubling me and she said she would pray for me. Later, she introduced me to Pastor Prince’s sermons and also invited me to New Creation Church.

Although I had initial doubts, as I continued listening to the sermons, I began to see and think differently. I started to attend New Creation Church and listened to Pastor Prince’s sermons every day. I also partook of the holy Communion three times a day, declaring that by His stripes, I am healed.

Pastor Prince talked about how condemnation is the root of many diseases, and that spoke to me. I stopped condemning myself, started to speak good over my body, and ceased causing self-harm as well. Today, I am healed of the incurable disease!

It was solely by God’s way, understanding His finished work and His grace. Thank You, Daddy God, for your love towards me!

Swollen Lymph Nodes Of A Few Years Gone

I had been experiencing swollen lymph nodes on my neck for the past two to three years. They were growing, which was a concern as the doctor told me that swollen lymph nodes should subside in weeks, and at most, months.

My doctor ordered a biopsy for me and the results were normal. We continued to monitor the situation frequently though, and it caused me and my family a lot of stress as we didn’t know what might develop.

We prayed for healing to manifest, but at each follow-up, the lymph nodes still appeared to be swollen. At the end of a recent online service, Pastor Prince prayed over those with growths on their necks. I decided to receive the healing for myself, and listened to it again during the replay of the service in the evening.

When I did that, I felt a sense of peace flowing through me. At the next appointment with my doctor, the report showed that the swollen lymph nodes were gone. Hallelujah, praise the Lord! He is indeed a miracle-working God. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for allowing the Lord to use you to minister to the people in the world.

Elbow Condition Fully Healed

I had been experiencing pain in my elbow for about a couple of weeks. On Sunday, 27 June, during the online service, Pastor Prince prayed for those with elbow conditions and even mentioned how it was like.

He said that someone was experiencing pain when they move their elbow up to a certain angle. He also said that God is healing that elbow, and invited the people to write in to the church if they have been healed. Although that was exactly how I felt, I did not pay too much attention to the prayer.

On Friday, I was listening to the sermon again and heard Pastor Prince’s prayer a second time. I was excited to hear it again as I was starting to feel soreness around my elbow. There and then, I paused and received the healing and declared that my elbow was fully healed.

Two days after that, as I was returning home from a walk, I realised that I had not been feeling pain in my elbow! It was completely healed. Praise the Lord!

Pain In Joints Completely Gone

Earlier this year, I felt pain in my elbows, hands, and fingers. I initially thought that it was due to the maintenance and repair work I had been doing in my house.

The pain went on for more than a month and it was hard to fall asleep with it. My hands felt weak, and I could hardly lift them up for more than a few minutes.

During one of the online services, Pastor Prince prayed over our joints and marrows. There and then, I realised that it was my joints and marrow that needed healing. I received the prayer for myself and felt some relief immediately. I continued to pray and partake of the holy Communion. I listened to sermons by Pastor Prince and kept on declaring that “by His stripes, I am healed” and that “as Jesus is without pain, so am I without pain.”

Since then, day by day, the pain in my joints continued to subside even more. Now, I am completely healed. Praise the Lord for all that He has done for me!

Healed Of Thirty-Eight Years Of Chronic Skin Disease

I suffered from folliculitis (an inflammation of the hair follicles) for over thirty-eight years since I was fifteen years old. I saw over a hundred doctors and every single one of them told me that this condition could not be cured. I did everything. I bought every kind of cream and medicine available and most of them made my condition worse. There were thousands of red dots all over my back, chest, and arms. I could never take my shirt off in public and avoided going out because people would think that I had an infectious disease. They cringed when they saw my skin.

The condition was itchy and it would worsen when I perspired. If it got cold and dry suddenly, the skin on my back would tear and bleed when I reached for something quickly. I lost track of the number of times someone told me that my back was bleeding through my shirt. It was horrible but the real damage was emotional. Throughout my school days, I rejected pool or beach party invites. When I did go to the beach, I would visit a remote one at an unpopular time to avoid people.

I have also been a Christian since 1982 but stopped attending church in the last five years because every sermon seemed to say that I had to try harder. After thirty years of trying to work my way to heaven, I was exhausted.

Then two years ago, I started listening to Pastor Prince’s sermons during long morning walks. This went on for months and things began to change. I started to believe that God blesses those whom He loves, and started to rest in what He has done for me and not what I was trying to do for Him.

Today, my skin is miraculously healed! It is perfectly clear and soft like a baby’s bottom! Even my wife is completely amazed. For the first time in thirty-eight years, I can take off my shirt when I play tennis with friends.

Pastor Prince shared that 2015 is a year of the Lord’s restoration and I have been restored. My new skin is the least of the blessings. God has also restored to me His perfect peace. I no longer worry, but I just cast my cares on Him and receive His favor. Fear and oppression are far from me. Thank You, Jesus, for going to the cross for me.

Experienced Speedy Healing From Shoulder Pain After Vision Sunday

I had been plagued with a nagging stiffness in my right shoulder joint since August 2021. Initially, I did not give it too much attention thinking that it would go away soon.

However, two months later, it degenerated into a constant excruciating pain not only at the joint area, but also around my chest and forearm. At one point, the pain got so bad that I could not even raise my right arm or use my right hand to touch my shoulders.

I would apply medicated plasters on my shoulder, and even resorted to going for therapies and taking anti-inflammatory supplements.

It was a roller-coaster ride. On good days, I would just experience a dull ache, but on bad days, I would be totally wasted. In the last week of December, my condition worsened due to the cold weather, and I could not even sleep properly for many nights.

Then, on Vision Sunday, Pastor Prince declared that 2022 is The Year Of Rest And Acceleration, and he went on to share that forgiveness and healing were provided for when the blood of Jesus was sprinkled on the mercy seat. Immediately, I could sense the Lord’s hand on my shoulder and I uttered a simple “Amen” to receive His healing touch and rested in His finished work.

That afternoon, I took a nap and when I woke up, I realised that the pain in my right shoulder was all gone! I received my healing manifestation in my sleep!

I was overjoyed when I could reach for my left shoulder using my right hand after such a long while. I was also able to turn my right forearm without experiencing any pain! Praise the Lord for His healing touch and I believe that this is the first of many accelerations of His grace and blessings to manifest in the year 2022!

Blessed with twins after prayer

My husband and I had had a desire for a baby for many years. In 2019, I decided to go for in-vitro fertilisation (IVF) as I was getting older. However, it was not successful. In 2020, I tried again, and failed again.

I was sad and also lost. During that period, my boss encouraged me in the Lord, and reminded me to turn to Him.

During an online service on Sunday, 8 November 2020, Pastor Prince prayed over someone for a fruitful womb and I immediately claimed the blessing for myself. He also mentioned that God would resurrect the womb, regardless of age.

I felt so encouraged after the prayer. In late 2020, I received the news that I was pregnant with twins! My baby boys were born healthy in July this year. God has completed my family with not one, but two babies. Praise Him!

Daughter Healed from Anorexia

My wife and I have been attending New Creation Church since 2003. We have three children — two girls and a boy. At the beginning of 2010, my teenage daughter started developing an obsessive fear of gaining weight. She would refuse to drink or eat regularly and lost 10kg in three months, from 42kg to 32kg. She looked frail and run-down, which was a far cry from her cheerful appearance in the past. We could even see her bones protruding from her body. She would also experience severe stomachaches. We were really worried about her, especially since she only had one kidney at birth. A trip to the doctor confirmed that she had anorexia, an eating disorder. We sought help from her school and church teachers but nothing worked. We were very frustrated and felt helpless.

My wife and I had signed up for an Israel trip that would take place in March 2010. We believed that it was God’s divine arrangement for Pastor Henry Yeo to be our Israel trip leader. We had previously brought our daughter to him to be prayed for after one of the Sunday services. On the trip, we would SMS our daughter regularly to check on her condition and to pray for her. Pastor Henry also prayed with us for our daughter’s healing during the trip. The Israel trip really grew our faith to put our trust in Jesus. Pastor Henry also reminded us of the power of praying in tongues and meditating on the Word. We prayed using the anointing oil and believed that no weapon, plague, or sickness formed against us shall prosper.

True enough, we received our daughter’s text messages in Israel assuring us that the Lord is with her and that she is feeling much better. When we came back to Singapore, we witnessed a gradual change in her food intake. Since then, she has gained more than 15kg! She looks great now! She eats well and indulges in many types of food, even ice cream. What a miraculous healing from God! Thank you, Jesus! Thank you, Pastor Prince, for teaching us that our part is to simply trust and believe that God is the same miracle-working God yesterday, today, and forever!

Healed from Hip Muscle Wear and Tear

Ten years ago, I had a fall. The doctor found muscle wear and tear in my left hip, and there was nothing he could do about it. From that time onwards, I was not able to balance myself properly and would fall easily. Finally, I had to rely on a walking stick to move around and could not do a lot of things.

My back and hip hurt. When I mop the floor, I had to sit down or use the mop as a walking stick to prevent myself from falling. I was so afraid of falling down when I go to the toilet, I would use the wall as a support and sit down very slowly. I couldn’t squat and it was very painful and difficult to stand up.

During the Grace 2016 Trinity Broadcasting Network Israel Tour, I had to rely on my walking stick and a wheelchair that my friends on the tour got for me. They took turns to wheel me around and one of them even carried me up the mountains.

When Pastor Prince was praying for healing for the people at the event at Caesarea Maritima, my friend encouraged me to stand up. So I did and we prayed together. I remember that Pastor Prince told us to let go and not struggle. So I told myself to let go and said, “Lord, I believe You can heal me.”

After the prayer, my friend told me to try walking without the walking stick and praise the Lord — I could walk and even dance! Now, I am healed! Thank You, Jesus!

Able To Give Birth To Healthy Baby Girl After Years Of Trying

My husband and I had been believing God for a baby since 2018. We were not able to conceive as we had hoped. In early 2019, I went through a minor procedure to remove a suspected polyp in my uterus. A few months after the procedure, I realised I was pregnant!

However, the pregnancy ended in a miscarriage. We were heartbroken, but continued to trust God and believed that we would have our breakthrough.

In July 2020, I had an intrauterine insemination (IUI), a procedure to treat infertility, but the procedure was not successful. We decided to rest before trying again. During the online service on Sunday, 16 August 2020, Pastor Prince gave a word of knowledge to a couple believing God for a baby. We claimed the blessing and were very touched when we heard him say, “Don’t give up.”

A month later, I discovered that I was pregnant again! This time, everything went smoothly and I conceived naturally. It was all happening in God’s perfect timing! Our healthy baby girl was born in May 2021, and we give God all the glory!

Back Pain Gone

The right side of my upper back had been hurting for a long time. Towards the end of June, the pain worsened and it affected my sleep. I would wake up in the middle of the night due to the pain, and would listen to sermons until I fall asleep again.

During the online service on Sunday, 27 June, Pastor Prince said that God was healing back conditions and I immediately claimed it for myself.

After the prayer, I felt the pain in my back subsiding, and a few days later, it was completely gone. I am now completely healed! Thank You, Lord Jesus, for healing me.

Severe migraine gone after prayer

I've been listening to Pastor Prince's sermons for a long time and I would like to thank Pastor Prince for preaching the gospel of grace which has transformed my life.

On Sunday, 11 July, I developed a severe migraine. That day, I tuned in to New Creation Church Online and towards the end of the service, Pastor Prince told those who were sick to put their hands on the area where they were hurting and he proceeded to pray for them. 

I followed what Pastor Prince said and after the prayer, I could no longer feel any pain in my head. I was completely healed!

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your ministry! I pray that more people will get to hear the gospel of grace and be transformed by the Lord Jesus Christ.

Healed Of Incurable Neuromuscular Disease

Several years ago, I was diagnosed with myasthenia gravis (a chronic autoimmune disorder characterized by muscular weakness). It started with weak eyelids, and I couldn’t open my eyes fully. This made me look as if I was drunk or doped up on drugs. I was told that in the advanced stages, I could lose my ability to walk and eventually not be able to swallow.

An eye specialist and 2 neurosurgeons confirmed the diagnosis. There is no known cure for the condition and the doctors told me they could only help delay its progression and manage the symptoms with lifelong medication. I cried and found it hard to trust God for healing.

However, my husband and I continued to listen to Pastor Prince’s sermons in church and while commuting to work every day.

My husband would sit me down every night to pray for healing, and we would partake of the holy Communion together. In spite of my fears, I found great comfort each time we partook of the holy Communion. Some days I had no words to pray, and he would encourage me to repeat after him, giving thanks to God for the priceless and powerful sacrifice of Jesus at Calvary. We claimed God’s promises in Psalm 23 that we would have no lack and that we would lead healthy and fruitful lives.

Two days before my appointment with the neurosurgeon, I was taken off all my medication. To our surprise, the neurosurgeon noticed that my eyelids were not drooping. He next asked me to stand so he could check my muscle strength. Then looking perplexed, he asked if I had stopped taking the medication. When I said yes, he commented that without medication for more than 24 hours, it was impossible that my eyelids were not drooping. So he canceled the further tests that were to be conducted and confirmed that there were no symptoms of myasthenia gravis.

I was overjoyed and declared that I was healed by Christ Jesus! That was the last time I needed to see a doctor for myasthenia gravis. All glory be to God! My husband and I are so grateful for Pastor Prince’s ministry that has opened our eyes and ears to the wonderful gospel of grace.

Son delivered from allergy to peanuts

Two years ago, my son who was 3 years old suffered a serious allergic reaction after consuming a peanut butter sandwich. After that episode, he was given doses of emergency medicine and an EpiPen to carry along whenever he went. We were also advised to not consume peanuts in the household and to minimize eating out to reduce the risk of my son being exposed to the allergen, and having a life-threatening allergic reaction.  

Last year, during a routine annual test, we were elated to know that his allergy score had dropped drastically. We were even hopeful that he would outgrow his condition. However, in December 2020, we were informed that our son’s allergy score had gone up. Seeing the result, the doctor shared it was highly unlikely that our son would outgrow his allergy and therefore, recommended that he go for an immunotherapy treatment.  

I was reluctant for our son to undergo the treatment as it would require him to eat increasing amount of peanuts to build up his immunity. By doing so, he would be at risk of having an allergic reaction.  

Our church (New Creation Church) has a custom in which every individual is invited to write down 3 prayer requests at the end of the year. During that period, the church came together virtually to pray for their 3 prayer requests. So, we also asked our son to prepare his prayer requests and he told us that he would like to be able to eat peanuts again. We encouraged him to “see” himself eating peanuts as a faith picture.

On the day our son was due to go for his first immunotherapy treatment session, we partook of the holy Communion and declared that he would be able to eat all things that the Lord has created. 

At the session, he underwent a test to determine his threshold for peanuts, starting with a tiny amount of peanut powder. We were told that as long as he was able to consume one full peanut, he would have passed the test. 

At the end of the test, he ate a total of 17 peanuts and did not show any signs of allergic reaction! The doctor then cleared him of his allergy and even called it a miracle! Praise the Lord for His faithfulness!

At-Risk Foetus Born Healthy, Whole And Strong

When I was around 11 weeks pregnant, my gynaecologist discovered through an ultrasound scan that my baby had a worrying swelling from an unusually high measurement of fluid behind the neck. She explained that the normal measurement of the swelling should be less than 1.5 mm but my baby’s measurement was over 3 mm. This meant a high risk of a chromosomal abnormality such as Down’s syndrome or a congenital heart defect.

A second scan the next day revealed that the swelling had spread to my baby’s abdomen. Another gynaecologist was even invited to make yet another ultrasound scan and the diagnosis remained the same.

My husband and I were asked to consider if we would like to go for further tests or terminate the pregnancy. Our gynaecologist’s preference seemed to be for the latter. It was a difficult weekend. When Monday came, we decided to go for the chromosomal abnormality test. By then, my baby’s head, abdomen and limbs were all swollen.

As we waited for the test result, I started writing down healing verses from the Bible and meditating on the truth in Psalm 139 that the Lord is my baby’s creator. Thank God for Pastor Prince’s teaching on the holy Communion. It was the one “medicine” that I could take countless times without side effects. Whenever I got worried or wished I could “do” something, I would partake of the holy Communion and speak over my baby.

Surprisingly, that helped me to let go and rest. Sitting under Pastor Prince’s ministry over the years has also assured me that the Lord is not only able to perform a miracle for my child, He is also more than willing to do so.

On New Year’s Eve, my gynaecologist informed us that the chromosomal abnormality test turned out fine. However, she said that my child could still have a congenital heart defect, which was no less severe.

After the New Year, we went for a review and my gynaecologist was shocked to find that the swelling had subsided tremendously. She performed an extra-long ultrasound scan, flipped through her notes multiple times, then told us that she would have no objections if we wanted to continue with the pregnancy. 

And so we did. By the fifth month of my pregnancy, all the swelling had disappeared. On 30 June 2016, our son was born healthy, whole, and strong. He hit his physical development milestones earlier than his older brother. He sat up before he was 6 months, pulled himself up at 7 months, started walking at 10 months, and was literally running even before he was a year old. A cardiac specialist also confirmed that his heart is perfectly formed.

Our son is a living, walking, drooling, super adorable testimony of Jesus’ incredible power and unimaginable love for our family. All praise, glory and thanks to our Lord Jesus!

Accelerated Recovery from Breast Cancer, Now Cancer-Free

In late 2018, my mom had a biopsy done on a lump in her left breast. The biopsy confirmed the lump to be cancerous. A further body scan also confirmed that the cancer had spread to her lymph nodes. 

The oncologist planned for 7 rounds of chemotherapy, followed by either a lumpectomy (excision of the lump) or mastectomy (excision of the whole breast). However, we knew the most critical thing to do was to receive from the One who according to the Bible, would never disappoint. From the day of the diagnosis, my family began receiving of the holy Communion daily.  

In January 2019, I got a copy of the Vision Sunday sermon. When I heard that the theme of the year was the Year of the Latter Rain, I was ecstatic! It was going to be the year that God profusely showers us with the latter rain that we may gather our grain, wine, and oil. What perfectly timely good news it was! 

I immediately shared this with my family and our faith was further strengthened. We stood together in faith and in agreement that by Jesus’ broken body, my mom would receive complete healing for her breast cancer. 

After the 7 rounds of chemotherapy, my mom opted for the lumpectomy. The surgeon excised the lump, which had shrunk considerably, along with a millimeter of extra tissue surrounding the lump. The surgeon also excised a lymph node. All tissue samples were sent to the lab. 

A couple of days later, we received the results and they showed that the lump, including the surrounding tissue and the lymph node, were completely cancer-free! 

After the surgery, my mom was scheduled to go through a year of maintenance therapy. During her latest visit, her oncologist was pleased with how well my mom has been doing and said my mom could actually finish this treatment 6 months earlier than planned!   

We thank our Savior, the Lord Jesus, for His perfect sacrifice on the cross that has qualified us to freely receive all of the Father’s blessings. Daddy God has been good and faithful to us!

Broken Leg Bone Healed in Time for Professional Fight Through the Holy Communion

I am a 25-year-old professional fighter living in Colorado, USA. I’m writing in to share a recent experience of God’s healing and favor.  

I grew up learning the grace message from my father who heard the message of grace while he was serving time in prison. Coincidentally, my father also owned a carpet-laying company called New Creation.  

Growing up in a low income family with my father as an ex-convict, I have witnessed the power and glory of the Lord throughout my life. Things that should never have been possible for my family, God made a way, and my life is a testimony to the loving kindness and grace of our Lord. I am far from perfect and probably make more mistakes than your average Joe, but thankfully, it’s not my righteousness but Jesus’ that makes me righteous. 
 
As I mentioned I wanted to share my testimony of a recent healing I experienced that I am so grateful for. This isn’t the first time I’ve witnessed God do such a thing in my life but this time was special to me. It also confirms that the holy Communion teaching Pastor Joseph Prince preaches is from the Lord. 
 
In August, I was preparing for a fight scheduled in October when during one intense sparring session, I was kicked hard in the calf. I didn’t know at the time that my fibula was broken but the pain was pretty intense.  

For the first 2 weeks of the injury I could barely walk. I thought that I had just seriously strained a muscle or ligament so I never went to get the injury checked out. In fact, by the third week of the injury, I was back to training, though not at 100 percent capacity. I was intent on competing and even though my leg wasn’t fully healed, I was determined to step into the cage.  

However, because of some complications, the fight I was scheduled for was moved back by a month and a half. This was truly God’s favor. Not only did it give me more opportunity to heal but the event ended up getting a better contract with a different broadcaster that would help further my career more than the original one would have. Also, since, the fight was pushed back, it meant I would also be able to see my favorite pastor, Joseph Prince, live in a worship service in New York City in October.  

When I attended service, I had a seriously annoying pain in my back on the right side that reached all the way into my neck. Being a fighter, I always seem to have injuries and pain that I’ve learned to deal and train with until they hopefully go away. But during the service Pastor Prince started calling out certain areas that the Holy Spirit was leading him to address. He looked out into the audience and called out exactly that painful spot in my back. He said that the Lord wanted that person to roll the shoulder a particular way and it would be healed.  

Initially, I didn’t really think anything of it because I figured the pain I had was another injury that I had to work through. But because it was the exact spot where the pain I was feeling was located, I felt that maybe the Lord was talking to me. Right as I rolled my shoulder I felt a pop in my back that literally pushed me forward…and the pain was immediately gone! When I went home to train again, I was feeling very confident about my body being able to perform. 
 
That is, until I was kicked in the same spot as before and I felt like I had to completely start over in the healing process. The pain was severe again, and again I could barely walk. I started to doubt that the fight had been moved specifically for me and that all the good things that had happened were all part of God’s plan for me.  

During this time I was watching a lot of the messages on Josephprince.org and for what seemed like a week straight, the ministry continued to play the message of the power of the holy Communion. I took this as a sign from the Lord and started partaking of the Communion each day, sometimes multiple times a day. It seemed to get better but not enough to where I was confident in competing.  

The pain was still there as the fight approached, and was severe enough for me to get an X-ray on my fibula. Sure enough the images showed a break, not just a little one, but a full-on snapped bone. Everyone in my corner was telling me I should pull out of the fight and that it wasn’t worth risking my record to fight this time. A part of me agreed but another part of me believed that the Lord makes all things work out in our favor to those that trust in him.  

I continued taking Communion for about a week and asked the Lord to make it glaringly obvious if it was in his will to allow me to compete. The next day I had a follow up appointment with the orthopedist. I limped into his office where he had images of all the previous X-rays on my fibula.  He looked me dead in the eyes and said, “You are healed. You’re fine.”  

I was a little shocked because the pain was still there, the previous images had showed a break, and I could barely walk without a limp. He informed me that the bone itself was healed and there had been “a lot” of healing. He told me that the reason it was still hurting was that I had a hematoma and still some damage around the affected area but that I was cleared to compete. I had asked the Lord to make it obvious and he did. The fight was nearly here, the pain wasn’t gone yet but I knew the Lord would make all things work out in my favor.  

I continued to take the Communion until the day of the fight. By the time it came, my leg felt the best it had felt in 2 months. It was just like God’s timing too—right on time. During the fight, I was kicked in the leg 3 times and while it doesn’t feel good to get kicked in the leg it didn’t hurt any worse than it should have. 
 
I know now why God had moved the fight for me and why all of these things happened the way they did. I ended up winning in the first round via submission and the fight opened up a lot of opportunities for my career just like I knew it would. God is true to His Word and makes all things work in our favor (Rom. 8:28).  

I believe also that He has set aside the holy Communion for His people. I believe that while it didn’t happen overnight, the reason my leg healed as strong as it did was Pastor Prince’s teaching us to discern Jesus’ broken body in the holy Communion.  

God says He will use the weak things of this world to confound the mighty. It’s confounding how just a cracker and grape juice can manifest healing through the finished work of Christ. How He can take a broken family and a broken kid and demonstrate His might and glory like He has in my life.  

I have seen God do these types of works time and time again but this particular time was special to me and my journey. I believe the Lord wants me to share my story so that others can know He would do the same for them.

No More Bladder Cancer with Treatment and Communion

Pastor Prince, I am from Kenya. My family loves watching your sermons on the gospel of grace. I was diagnosed with bladder cancer following a miscarriage after 5 weeks of pregnancy. The doctor had requested for an ultrasound and noticed a 5cm-by-5cm tumor infiltrating my bladder wall. 

After a few MRIs and CT scans, I was rushed to surgery as they were concerned it might have been an ectopic pregnancy. It was, however, as they had earlier suspected, a huge tumor in my bladder, which they did their best to debulk. They didn’t remove it completely since it was near important organs. 

I thank God for supernaturally ensuring I received top care from a team consisting of gynecologists, the head urologist, and the head surgeon, who were all available for my case. This was a rare occurrence in the busy referral hospital I was at. 

After the long surgery, I woke up in the ICU feeling really shaken. While I was in the hospital, my brother reminded me of Pastor Prince’s sermons on the holy Communion—the secret to complete healing. We started to partake of the Communion together almost daily, and I also got to read the first chapter of Pastor Prince’s book Eat Your Way to Life and Health for free before it was officially released. 

The lab reports revealed that I indeed suffered from a sarcoma that was aggressive in nature and that I needed chemotherapy. I remained calm as I learned about the power of the holy Communion and how healing can be slow and gradual at times.

Eight months later, after many MRIs and scans, my oncologist advised that I no longer need chemotherapy or radiotherapy. There is no residual mass left and the cancer did not metastasize! Isn’t God wonderful?

Cancer-Free and Extremely Healthy

My wife and I have been attending Grace Revolution Church in Dallas, Texas. It has truly been a year of greater glory in every area of our lives— our marriage, finances, career, and physical bodies. One of the many demonstrations of His amazing love came not long ago. 

One Saturday evening, as I was preparing for bed, I noticed that my left testicle was enlarged and hard. I decided to make an appointment to see our family doctor first thing on Monday morning, as I knew that something was not right. I began to be worried and fearful.   

But at church the next morning, I felt the Lord encourag­ing me through Pastor Prince’s broadcast message. I was also prayed over and anointed with oil. When Monday came, my wife and I went to the doctor in a state of peace as we rested in our Father’s love.  

After I had an ultrasound and a consultation with a urolo­gist, I was diagnosed with testicular cancer. Despite the doc­tor’s report, we chose to cling to the report of the Lord. We knew our heavenly Father would guide us in the decisions we needed to make and we sensed an overwhelming peace in the midst of the storm. We felt so at rest in the finished work of Jesus and were filled with an unexplainable joy. We believed that just as Jesus is, so was I in my physical body.  

The doctor wanted to move forward with surgery that Thursday to remove the mass in the left testicle. That would be followed up with a computerized tomography (CT) scan on Friday to assess what further treatment would be needed. During the consultation, we felt very restful about mov­ing forward with the surgery and decided to schedule the procedure, believing that I was already healed because of Jesus’ finished work. We also continually reminded ourselves of our righteousness in Him as we partook of the holy Com­munion daily.  

On Thursday, the surgery went very well. However, after the surgery, the doctor spoke to my wife with much concern, as the cancerous mass was very large and belonged to the mixed germ cell tumor category. Despite the doctor’s concern, my wife and I continued to believe that I was completely free of cancer in my body.  

On Friday morning, I went in for another CT scan to see if the cancer had spread to the nearby areas. I went in believ­ing that I was healed and that nothing would be found. When the doctor looked over the report, he was astounded. The CT scan confirmed that I was completely cancer-free and extremely healthy. 

The doctor found the report very shocking because his expe­rience had taught him that cancer cells of the size and type that I had would certainly have spread to the surrounding areas. He had actually already made an appointment for me to see a specialist to discuss the options for chemotherapy and radiation therapy even before the CT scan. However, after looking at the report, he agreed that it was no longer necessary and canceled the appointment! 

The doctor was very pleased to see how quickly I recovered and was able to return to my normal activities. The surgery took place right in the midst of my off-season training program, which meant there were no setbacks in my training whatsoever. This was important to me as a professional athlete.  

My wife and I know that our heavenly Father had pro­tected me and kept the cancer contained, and subsequently had it removed. What the enemy tried to use as a setback, our heavenly Father used as a divine set‑up. Now, as I share this story with people I cross paths with, I am able to use it as a glorious testimony of the health and wholeness that we have in Jesus. Through the whole experience, my wife and I were able to remain at rest because we knew that the Father sees us as righteous through His Son, Jesus, and we are completely loved by Him. 

Glory to God!

Delivered From Stage 4B Cervical Cancer

My former wife, Kay, was diagnosed with Stage 4B cervical cancer when her scan showed grapefruit-sized masses in her body. She was told she only had a year to live and that chemotherapy might only extend her life for a few more months. 

The cancer research center also refused to accept her because her case was deemed to be hopeless. Then, Jesus came into our lives in an awesome way through Joseph Prince’s ministry and we began to bask in the gospel of grace. We decided that we didn’t need a second medical opinion but to trust the Lord’s opinion. 

We also began to partake of the holy Communion while discerning the Lord’s body after hearing Pastor Prince teach on it.  

Six months after the diagnosis, we received the latest scan results that showed no trace of cancer anywhere! The report reflected zero tumors and cancer cells. I can hardly write this testimony through my tears. 

Praise the name of Jesus! His grace and love are so much bigger than our sins. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your boldness to preach the truth. We love you so much.

Freed of 25-Year Smoking Addiction, Healed of Pneumonia and Tuberculosis

I have been watching Pastor Prince’s sermons and reading his daily devotionals every day. Last year, a chest X-ray revealed that I had pneumonia and tuberculosis.  The doctor advised me to 

consult with a lung specialist. The doctor’s report made me so discouraged.  

That night, I partook of the holy Communion and asked the Lord to help me quit my 25-year smoking habit. I said, “I can’t, Lord, but You can.” The next morning, I woke up with no desire to smoke and was freed from my addiction. It was an effortless breakthrough. 

I continued to partake of the holy Communion every day right through to the time I had to see the lung specialist. During the consultation, the specialist said she could not detect any pneumonia or tuberculosis in me, and simply told me to take regular cough medicine to dilute the mucus. 

I am so amazed by God’s grace! God is a living God! Thank you, Pastor Prince, for blessing me with your preaching. I have come to know more about Jesus. Praise the Lord.

Delivered from Breast Cancer

In September 2019, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. The doctors found a 6 cm tumor in my breast and detected cancer in a nearby lymph node. My family had already been partaking of the holy Communion on a regular basis but after this diagnosis, we partook of it daily, declaring what Jesus did for us on the cross. 

I studied and read many books on healing, including Joseph Prince’s book Eat Your Way to Life and Health. I started chemotherapy and shortly after, I could no longer feel the tumor. I knew I was healed but it would be a while before I could confirm it with the doctor. I stood firm on what Jesus said in His Word and when doubt crept into my heart, I would listen to sermons.  

Two weeks before my surgery to remove what’s left of the tumor, I was quarantined at home. I was getting headaches and was afraid and anxious that it was a sign the cancer had spread. Then I happened to chance upon Pastor Prince’s live sermon Dwell Safely in the Secret Place on Facebook.  

At the end of the service, he called out someone watching who has a growth in her breast and declared healing. He also ministered to people with migraines who were afraid of telling the doctor about them. I was sobbing! My headaches stopped, and I knew that message was for me. 

I went for my surgery and despite all the doctors telling me it was unlikely all the cancer would be gone, the pathology report came back showing I had no cancer left in my body! They called it a full pathological response (disappearance of all invasive cancer in the breast after completion of chemotherapy). God has healed me, praise be to the Lord! 

Since then, God has been prompting me to share the message of grace and the holy Communion with someone every month. I gift them with Pastor Prince’s devotional and the Communion elements along with my testimony. I’ve already heard back from several people that the Lord is changing their situations too!

Delivered from Deep Depression After Partaking of the Communion

I left an abusive marriage of 12 years, and my kids live with my ex-husband. I only am able to see them twice a year because I live 12 hours away. 

After my last visit to see my kids last year, I fell into a deep depression. I couldn’t get out of bed and slept up to 20 hours a day. Medications didn’t help me. I lost 58 pounds in 5 months because I couldn’t eat.  

Pastor Prince, I have been listening to your sermons on the holy Communion, literally for 24 hours on some days. I let them play as I sleep and listen for the few hours I am awake.

The revelation I received on the Communion has helped me step out of such deep darkness and depression. God showed me while I was standing in a line at Walmart waiting for my medication that His daily bread was my daily healing—for today, not yesterday or tomorrow, but today. Like with the mana that fell, if the children of Israel tried to keep it for the next day, it would spoil. Every day God provided new mana.  

God told me it is the same with the Communion. That today He supplies all my healing through the elements of bread and juice, the simple things that represents what His Son did on the cross. And He said to me that when tomorrow comes, He will provide me with new bread and new healing for that day. So I began to take the Communion every day, and especially when I had really dark moments.  

And here I stand depression-free. God has restored hope in my life. Understanding the Communion better has given me hope and showed me that without Jesus hope is just an empty word.  

All praise to God for His revelation! And thanks to people like you who never stray from preaching His truth.

Developed Antibodies Against Hepatitis C After Receiving Communion

I was heavily addicted to drugs and alcohol for about 10 years before God delivered me in July 2012. Praise God, I have been clean and sober ever since. But I was tested reactive for hepatitis C in 2012. In 2013, I was again tested and found to be still reactive with the virus.  
 
Over this past year, I began listening to Joseph Prince and attending Grace Revolution Church in Dallas. I also began partaking of the holy Communion at home. A couple on the prayer team prayed for healing for me one Sunday after church, and I continued to stand in Jesus’ finished work whenever I took the Communion.  
 
Sometime later, I went to see an infectious diseases specialist to do blood work in order to find out what genotype of hepatitis C I had to get the right treatment. A few weeks later, I received a call from the doctor to say she had good news for me: I was a rare individual because I had developed antibodies against the virus and am immune to it. She told me that my body had fought the virus off and I don't need any treatments. Praise Jesus! All glory to Him! As Jesus is, so am I in this world. As He doesn’t have hepatitis C in His blood, neither do I! 

 

What is so neat about this is I have not been spending as much time as I would have liked to with God. I felt like I had fallen short this year as a Christian. I haven’t even been to church that much. This is a strong message for me—that there is nothing I can do to earn my healing or right standing with the Father. The fact I have felt less spiritual over the past year but was still healed is a powerful testament to the radical grace of our Lord Jesus Christ.  
 
On top of that, I have not gotten sick with a cold or anything else all year. Normally, I get sick at least 3 to 4 times during the winter months. Every time I felt like I was starting to get sick, I would claim Jesus’ finished work over my body. I would wake up the next morning healed and refreshed! Praise God!  
 
Thank you so much, Pastor Prince, for the amazing message of God’s grace that changed my life. Thank you for opening my eyes to the power of Jesus’ finished work and His agape love for us.

Healed of Kidney Stones

My wife and I are residing in Australia and we have been following Pastor Prince's sermons via his books, DVDs and the Internet.

Back in mid-2010, I came back to Singapore for a routine CT scan for my back pain which revealed a small renal stone in my right kidney. However, it wasn't giving me any trouble then. Two years later, I detected blood in my urine on a number of occasions and was referred to an urologist in Australia. After further examinations, I was told that there were 2 kidney stones measuring about 4mm each! I was monitored through yearly check-ups as I wasn’t prepared to consider further medical intervention.

Everything seemed fine until one night when I experienced severe back pain that radiated all the way to my lower abdomen. The pain was unbearable and I broke out in cold sweat.

The pain and discomfort continued for days. By God's grace, I happened to share my condition with my mother, who has been deeply impacted by Pastor Prince’s teachings. She reminded me to pray over my condition and partake of the holy Communion, and also said that she would pray for me.

Heeding her advice, I partook of the holy Communion before my afternoon nap. I declared that because my body is the temple of God, the condition could not remain in me anymore.

I woke up from my nap feeling extremely peaceful. I went to the toilet and passed out numerous dark specks including a piece of stone measuring around 4mm! I did not even know the stone was passed out initially as there wasn't any pain at all!

Subsequently, I consulted my family physician who was very surprised by the whole episode. He said that it was a miracle that a kidney stone of that size could be removed from the body without undergoing surgery! He added that for me to pass it out would have been very painful and morphine would be required to manage it.

I am very grateful to Pastor Prince for his wonderful teachings on God’s grace and divine healing through the holy Communion. Now, my symptoms are gone and I am well again! Hallelujah!

Cystic Hygroma Completely Gone Without Surgery

Pastor Prince, I’m a 15-year-old from the Philippines. My family and I have been watching your sermons since 2009 and I enjoy all of them! 

A couple of years ago, my teacher noticed an abnormal growth on the left side of my neck. I told my parents about it and we went to the doctor. Tests showed that it was a cystic hygroma—a benign but potentially disfiguring condition. It usually affects children, but mine manifested in my teens. 

Surgery is the only cure and the entire growth must be removed to prevent it from coming back. In some cases, it may not be best to remove the growth if there is a risk of certain veins being affected. 

Months passed and the cyst was still there. The doctor once again recommended surgery, but we chose to aspirate it instead to temporarily remove it from my neck. 

After a month, the cyst came back. We returned to the doctor and he advised surgery once more. It was a stressful time for me and my family. I didn’t want a knife cutting me open. I knew God would heal me miraculously. 

I continued to listen to your teachings on healing and wholeness through Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross. I also partook of the holy Communion with my family. By the following year, the cyst had shrunk but it didn’t completely go away. Nevertheless, I considered it gone. 

Day after day, I spoke to the lump and commanded it to leave. I knew my words had power. I also spoke in tongues whenever I was alone or in prayer. Unfortunately, the following year, the cyst became infected and grew larger. 

We went back to the doctor and was told that surgery was the only way to fix the problem. Still, I didn’t choose surgery. I knew the Lord was my doctor and healer. I believed He had already healed me when He hung on the cross. 

I continued to rest and take my antibiotics and vitamins. My family and I also partook of the holy Communion every night and did not worry about the lump. One day, a basketball hit me during training and it aggravated the swelling. But less than two weeks later, the lump somehow disappeared completely! I finally had my normal neck back after 2 years! 

I know and am confident that Jesus Himself removed the lump. He’s the only one who can help me look wonderful! Thank you, Pastor Prince, for bringing the grace message. I hope your ministry will continue to bless people around the world. To God be all the glory!

Son Healed of Scoliosis, 17-Degree Curve in Spine Straightened

My youngest son was diagnosed with scoliosis when his X-ray showed a 17-degree curve in his spine. Upon receiving the news, fear, doubt, anger, sadness, worry, and condemnation began to set in our hearts. We were also concerned about potential disabilities and surgeries for my son in future. 

As a pastor, I found myself struggling with my Christian beliefs. Nevertheless, I could feel the Lord’s loving embrace and peace as I prayed for my son. My church also prayed for him and we believed the Lord could, and would, heal him. 

The doctor referred him to a children’s hospital and arranged for an appointment. By faith, we decided to go for the appointment to confirm the healing that had already begun. Even though doubt, condemnation, and fear crept into our hearts, we kept declaring the finished work of the cross and partook of the holy Communion. 

During the appointment, the doctor examined my son and took more X-rays. Then she said, “I have good news for you!” and showed us the X-rays that displayed no trace of scoliosis. Our son’s spine had straightened out. The Lord had healed him! There is victory and power in the cross indeed! 

We now distribute a copy of Pastor Prince’s book, The Power of Right Believing, to every new member in our church. We believe miracles happen as we fill ourselves with the good news of the gospel.

Experienced Sweet Sleep After Prayer

5 September 2021 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

I had been having really poor sleep for almost a year. There were times when I could not sleep for two to three days and would literally be awake for 72 hours!

When I slept, I would only be able to sleep for one to three hours. I knew that the problem was due to stress and depression. I tried everything to help, but nothing worked. My head felt like it was going to explode and my eyes were hurting badly.

On Sunday, 5 September, Pastor Prince called out to those who were facing sleep issues. He mentioned that they shall be healed and have a very sweet sleep.

That night, I laid my head on my pillow and slept immediately. I had nine hours of sleep and woke up fresh. My body also began to feel lighter. The wonderful thing was, that night, I did not take any medicine or do anything. I simply trusted God to give me rest.

Since that day, I have been sleeping very well at night, and I no longer need to take any medicine to help me fall asleep. All glory to Jesus!

Set Free From Depression

22 August 2021 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

I had been struggling with depression since 2017 and never really understood what was happening to me. I felt hopeless and did not look forward to anything. I often felt as if there was a dark cloud over my head and I was unable to feel any joy.

I battled against it by reading books and watching videos, but the depression did not completely go away. In 2021, I started tuning in to New Creation Church’s service every Sunday and believed that God will set me free because I am the righteousness of God in Christ and my healing was already paid for at the cross. All I had to do was believe.

Gradually, I began to experience joy. My complete deliverance came when Pastor Prince spoke during his sermon on 22 August about someone being set free from the darkness over his or her head and brought into light. Immediately, I knew that the prayer was for me and claimed it for myself.

From that day on, I felt as though a weight had been lifted off of me and my moodiness was gone. Glory to Jesus, and thank you, Pastor Prince, for your messages of grace!

Knee Condition Healed

11 July 2021 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

I had been suffering from a major knee injury that lasted for more than a year. I tried every possible way to make the pain go away, but to no avail.

It made me uncomfortable and I could not sit for too long. I also could not do any leg exercises without feeling a burning pain. At times, the pain would last for hours. My affected knee was also swollen.

About a month ago, Pastor Prince, during the end of his sermon, prayed for those who were experiencing pain in their knees. He declared that the pain was gone and I received the prayer in faith.

After some days, I realised that I had not felt pain in my knee for a while and was able to do my leg workouts without feeling any stress in my knees. A few weeks later, my knee was no longer swollen and the pain was completely gone. Praise Jesus!

Marriage life transformed, delivered from vices and getting stronger through the Communion

I was raised in church, but never really understood what it meant to be a Christian. When I left my hometown to further my studies, I started to smoke, drink and gamble. I was even addicted to pornography.

Eventually, I got married and had a baby boy. In order to support my family, I had to work overseas. When I was abroad, things grew worse, I started living in adultery and my wife also got involved with another man. That crushed me. I was so hurt and felt that my life had no more meaning. Nonetheless, for the sake of my son, I still applied for my family to join me in Canada.

Months after we reunited, my love for my wife rekindled. However, the pain and hurt was still present. I realised that I needed God’s intervention and we started going to church where we learnt to forgive each other.

One day, I came across Pastor Prince’s sermons on YouTube. His preaching was so profound yet straight to the point. I had never heard anyone share such amazing revelations and anointed words that imparted grace to the listeners. I have learnt a lot from Pastor Prince, including being conscious that we have been made the righteousness of God in Christ. I would listen to his sermons all day long.

Since then, I have been delivered from my drunkenness, stubbornness, and sexual immorality. My physical body has also gotten stronger after partaking of the holy Communion daily, discerning the Lord’s body. My wife was even healed of scoliosis without any surgery!  

We have also been practising the Lord’s presence and love together. Now, our marriage is completely restored.

Today, whenever I am asked to share the word of God, I make sure that the message only points to Jesus, the reason for our living, and nothing else.

All glory and praise to the Lord! Thank you, Pastor Prince and New Creation Church!

Gum infection healed

27 June 2021 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

In the month of June, I had a very bad toothache and an infection in my gums. I remembered seeing a dentist a year before regarding the same issue, but was told then that there was no clear diagnosis for the pain.

This time, after a couple of visits to the dentist, he suggested that I do a scan to find out the cause of the toothache and the infection in my gums. A root canal was later done to my aching tooth, and the dentist further suggested that I check with a doctor regarding the infection.

When I visited the doctor, I was told that my gum infection had to be operated on. I was exhausted, having to visit so many doctors and paying so much through the course of it.

On 26 June, I spoke to the Lord and told Him to take care of me. On Sunday, 27 June, I tuned in to the online service and heard Pastor Prince call out my condition. He even said that the Lord is healing that infected area and it shall be gone!

Amazingly, my tooth no longer aches and my infection has cleared completely. I can now eat, drink, and talk without pain or discomfort. To God be the glory!

Blurry vision healed

11 July 2021 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

In February this year, I went for an eye check-up after experiencing blurry vision. I was told by the doctor that such conditions are sometimes caused by brain tumours. But she assured me that it was highly unlikely in my case as my eyesight had always been good.

However, about a month ago, I experienced severe sharp pains on my right temple which caused me to worry as I thought that there was a problem with my brain. I partook of the holy Communion and the sharp pains did not recur. However, the blurry vision remained.

On Sunday, 11 July, Pastor Prince prayed for those with blurry visions and he also called out those with worries or concerns about their brains. I knew that he was referring to me, and I received the healing prayer with tears flowing down my eyes.

That week, I was watching television and realised that my blurry vision was gone. Normally, I would have to close an eye to see clearly when I was watching television but this time, I did not have to do that! Praise the Lord for healing me, and thank you, Pastor Prince, for faithfully sharing what the Lord spoke to you!

Elbow pain healed

27 June 2021 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

Since April, I had been experiencing a condition called “tennis elbow”, which causes pain around the outside of the elbow. This was due to me frequently playing badminton.

I went and saw a doctor for some basic medication and continued to play badminton, albeit less frequently. However, the pain did not go away. When Singapore entered into a period of heightened alert in May, I stopped playing badminton for the entire month but still, the pain did not go away. There was also a soreness in my elbow when I pushed it to the limit.

On 27 June 2021, I tuned in to the online service and Pastor Prince prayed for someone with an elbow condition. I received the prayer for myself and began to move my elbow, stretching it out and proclaiming that I am healed.

At that moment, I felt the presence of God come upon me and as I began to swing my elbow, I realised that the pain was completely gone! Thank You, Jesus, for healing me!

Healed of bad upper back and shoulder aches

27 June 2021 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

I had been experiencing really bad upper back and shoulder aches for about two weeks. It got so bad that I could not sit for long periods of time.

I contemplated going to see a Chinese physician as I was aching even without putting a strain on my back.

On Sunday, 27 June 2021, I tuned in to the second service online and at the end of the sermon, Pastor Prince called out my condition and pointed out exactly where I was feeling the pain—at my upper back, in between the shoulder blades, and slightly to the right. I knew the healing was for me and I raised my hands to receive the prayer. At that moment, the pain immediately disappeared.

It felt as if the pain was never there! Praise the Lord for His tender mercies, and for reminding me that nothing is too small for Him.

Healed of Multiple Conditions Including Swelling of Gums

27 June 2021 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

I had a metal crown done on my tooth last year. It became painful early this year, and the gums also began to swell. I visited the dentist multiple times to reduce the swelling, and was told that if the swelling persisted, I would have to remove the old crown and put in a new one.

Being a person who enjoys food and has a low tolerance for pain, I was filled with dread. Every day, I would declare that by His stripes, I am healed. My son also encouraged me to partake of the holy Communion daily, just as preached by Pastor Prince.

I also kept on listening to Pastor Prince’s sermons. On 27 June 2021, I noticed that my gums had swelled even more. It was an ugly sight. However, I still prepared to tune in to the service online. That day, Pastor Prince preached on how God’s word brings forth life and healing. I received the message and believed for a hundred-fold healing for myself.

At the end of his sermon, Pastor Prince prayed for those with swelling of gums! I stood up to receive my healing. He even prayed for a spinal pain condition that I had been having for a month, which affected my right arm.

Today, I am completely healed. I can bite a guava, and there is also no more pain in my back and arm! Glory to God!

Chest Pain Healed

27 June 2021 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

I had been having sharp chest pains periodically around my heart area for quite some time. It would usually come when I got stressed at work. I tried multiple ways to ease the pain, but it would always come back. The pain would happen every day and last for a few seconds.

I was extremely worried about my condition as the pandemic had worsened in Taiwan, and I did not want to step into a hospital for a check-up for fear of being exposed to the Covid-19 virus.

On Sunday, 27 June, Pastor Prince specifically prayed for someone with a chest pain condition. He mentioned that this person had been having it for some time and was worried about it. I knew then that Pastor Prince was referring to me and I stood up from where I was immediately and received the healing!

I teared at that moment because I knew the Lord was reaching out to me. During that time, I also declared the Lord would strengthen my heart.

It has been a couple of weeks since that day, and the pain has not come back—not even for a second! Praise the Lord!

Youth healed of anorexia and accepted into medical school

In 2017, at the age of 15, I was diagnosed with anorexia nervosa, an eating disorder. There was a voice that kept telling me that food was bad for me. I became so severely malnourished and underweight that my muscles lost almost all their strength. My organs were failing, and my blood pressure and pulse rate were extremely low. My mind was also filled with negative thoughts, including suicide.

When I went to the doctor, I was told that my condition was very critical. My liver enzyme level was on the rise, and the doctor told my parents that if my condition didn’t improve, I would need a liver transplant. My parents were devastated.

That night, my aunt's family came and asked us to partake of the holy Communion together. My uncle prayed for me and that started our journey with God. My family and I started listening to Pastor Prince’s sermons and by God’s grace, I got well enough to be discharged. We also started attending New Creation Church as a family.

However, my mind was still filled with negative thoughts and I would get into arguments with my loved ones. I had to stop school for half a year due my physical condition, and could only return in 2018. Even so, I had trouble focusing during lessons. This caused my grades to go downhill. I felt very lousy and condemned.

But God never gave up on me. As I continued to listen to sermons and put my trust in Him, my miracles came—one after another. I woke up one day and the voice that kept tormenting me disappeared! From then on, I was able to eat normally. Eventually, I was healed of anorexia. My relationship with my family members began to improve. As for my studies, I managed to graduate with high distinction and was accepted into a local medical school. Praise the Lord!

God not only restored to me what I had lost, but gave me superabounding grace! This is only possible through our Lord Jesus Christ!

Healed from neck pain

2 May 2021 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

I have been a Christian since I was 19 years old, but only started listening to Pastor Prince from 2019. His messages about our Lord Jesus Christ and His finished work have delivered me from depression, anxiety and panic attacks, and years of addiction to pornography.

Recently, I had a pain on the left side of my neck. Every time I moved it, the pain would go all the way from my neck to my head. I also could not fully turn my head without feeling extreme pain. For about a month now, this pain would persist, often from noon until evening.

I was puzzled, and tried different ways to relieve the pain but to no avail. It robbed me of my joy as I could not operate normally.

On Sunday, 2 May, Pastor Prince called out my neck condition and proceeded to pray over it. I jumped off my seat in tears and confessed that I am healed. I then moved my head around as instructed and realised that the pain was gone!

I am now completely healed. Thank you, Jesus, for using Pastor Prince to preach the gospel of grace so powerfully!

Back pain for a year healed

6 June 2021 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

I visited New Creation Church in 2018 as a tourist. Since the pandemic began, I started watching the services online every week and have been immensely blessed.

I had been having a back pain for a year. The pain kept on returning even though I tried many therapies to help ease the pain. On Sunday, 6 June 2021, Pastor Prince called out a back condition and proceeded to pray over it. He also turned and pointed to the exact location at the upper back where I was experiencing pain in.

I knew that the prayer was for me and claimed it immediately. I knew that God was healing and setting me free from this persistent pain.

It’s been more than a week now, and the pain has not returned! Thank You, Jesus, for healing me and making me whole. All glory and praise to Him!

Healed From Fibroids And Polyps In The Womb

At the end of last year, my doctor told me that I had fibroids and polyps in my womb. The condition caused me to bleed a lot and also resulted in a lack of iron in my body.

I was concerned and worried as my mother had the same condition previously and died of cancer.

Through Pastor Prince’s messages, I’ve learned about the finished work of Jesus on the cross and the gift of righteousness that I’ve received from Him. I decided to believe in God’s will to heal me and make me whole, and rejected thoughts that I’d end up like my mother.

In the first service of this year, I was amazed by God’s grace and goodness when Pastor Prince called out my condition during his sermon. Immediately, I claimed the healing for myself. The Lord also encouraged me during the service on 17 January, when Pastor Prince said that the growths found in wombs would shrivel up and die. He also said that they would be found no more during future visits to the doctor.

I was excited because I was about to visit my doctor. When my appointment came, my doctor ordered for another scan. This time, the scan showed only fibroids but no more polyps. Then, the doctor called for a medical procedure to investigate my condition more thoroughly. The night before my procedure, I felt a cooling sensation around my lower abdominal area that lasted for a while. At that moment, I felt loved and taken care of.

The procedure went smoothly and when the results came out, there was no mention of fibroids! The growths were gone and I am completely healed.

All the doctor could say was that the previous scans could be wrong although I have had two different scans done at two different radiology centres that confirmed the fibroids. Praise the Lord for His faithfulness. Hallelujah!

Healed From A Ganglion Cyst On The Wrist

I have had a ganglion cyst on my wrist for more than 10 years due to repetitive stress injury from gymnastics training in the past. As the cyst grew over the years, I experienced frequent wrist pains, sometimes needing to wear a wrist guard to alleviate the symptoms. I could also no longer engage in exercises requiring wrist agility.

On Sunday, 11 October 2020, Pastor Prince prayed for those with wrist conditions. I immediately claimed the healing for myself, and although the healing did not manifest instantaneously, I knew that God was going to heal me. As such, I snapped a photo of the ganglion cyst on my injured wrist as an act of faith, knowing that one day I would be able to give a visual testimony of my healing. This also became a part of my nightly prayer.

Gradually, the pain became less frequent. Unbeknownst to me, God had already begun His miracle. On Resurrection Sunday, as Pastor Prince pronounced a blessing over the congregation, I felt led to declare healing over my wrist. But when I took a look at my wrist, I realised that the cyst was gone!

I was overwhelmed by God’s love for me. Praise the Lord for His finished work on the cross. By His stripes, I am healed!

Healed of chronic neck and shoulder pain

11 April 2021 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

I had been suffering from a chronic neck and shoulder pain for about seven to eight years. Last year, I realised that the pain had intensified and during a check-up, I discovered that I had a few bulging cervical discs. This was likely the reason why my upper right arm was always hurting and at times, I would also experience numbness in my right arm.

I went for numerous shockwave therapy sessions which helped to subdue the pain. However, when the pain became unbearable, I would go for another massage therapy session.

A few days before Sunday, 11 April 2021, I was experiencing pain again on the right side of my neck and shoulder. During the sermon on Sunday, the pain was still there.

During ministering, Pastor Prince called out a few symptoms that the Lord was healing His people of and the first one he mentioned was a shoulder condition that stemmed from the neck. He pointed exactly at the area where I was feeling the pain and encouraged those with this condition to move the area.

I was surprised when Pastor Prince called out my condition and started moving my shoulder. When I did that, I could feel a mix of warmth and coldness in my neck and shoulder. Then, miraculously, the pain was gone!  Thank you, Pastor Prince, for boldly proclaiming the gospel of grace!

Stones in gallbladder gone

11 April 2021 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

Since the middle of 2019, I had been having abdominal pain once every few months. In September 2020, I went for an ultrasound and I was found to have four gallstones in my gallbladder.

The doctor immediately recommended that I undergo keyhole surgery to remove them. As I didn't want to have surgery, I asked if there were other options and I was told that the alternative would be for me to be on medication for a few years. However, that would not guarantee that the gallstones would go away.

Finally, I told my doctor that I would try controlling my diet and stop eating oily food to avoid a flare-up. However, a couple of months later, I went for a holiday and ended up eating some oily food which triggered my abdominal pain. I went back to my doctor and he insisted that I undergo surgery.

The next day, on 22 November 2020, I tuned in to New Creation Church Online and towards the end of the sermon, Pastor Prince said that someone had recently been diagnosed with gallstones and God was healing the person.

I believed that Pastor Prince was speaking about me and God wanted to heal me. So, I claimed that healing. For the next few days, I started to feel different and all my past symptoms disappeared.

I requested to go for another ultrasound and was scheduled to do so in March 2021.

During this time, I patiently waited and gave thanks to our Lord Jesus Christ every night believing that He has healed me.

On 8 March 2021, I went for the ultrasound and the report came back saying that my gallbladder is all clear! According to the radiologist, my gallbladder is normal with no gallstones! Praise God for completely healing my gallbladder. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for preaching the message of grace!

Intensifying left hip pain healed

11 April 2021 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

I had a pain in my left hip that was intensifying over the past few months. The pain was constantly and persistently with me.

On 28 February 2021, Pastor Prince spoke a word of knowledge about my condition. I stood up and received the healing for myself. He also mentioned that our youth would be renewed like the eagle’s. I am already in my seventies, and really needed to hear that!

The next morning when I woke up, I realised that the pain in my left hip was gone! The Lord Jesus has healed me completely. If not for the Lord’s healing, I would probably not be able to walk in the near future. Praise the Lord!

Days Of Stomach Pain Gone In An Instant

4 April 2021 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

For three days prior to Resurrection Sunday, I had been suffering from a pain on the left side of my stomach. I had tried all kinds of methods to get rid of the pain, but nothing worked.

During the service, the pain was still there. Towards the end of the sermon, when Pastor Prince started ministering, I decided to trust the Lord for my healing.

Praise the Lord. The pain in my stomach was gone! I was healed instantly! Hallelujah!

What a wonderful Jesus we have. Thank you, Pastor Prince and New Creation Church!

Received Jesus and thyroid level fell back to normal

On August 2020, I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism after being admitted to the emergency room for a panic attack. According to the doctors, my thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) level was extremely high. A normal TSH level is between 0.5 to 4, but mine was at 9. Subsequently, I sought treatment from a specialist and was prescribed some medication which I was told that most patients would have to take for life.

I was disheartened when the doctor explained the symptoms of my condition which included chronic fatigue, poor memory, weight gain, anxiety, and depression. He also shared that having a TSH level of 9 meant that it would be nine times more challenging for me to lose weight as compared to a normal person.

At that point in time, I had not received Jesus as my Saviour. So, my mum encouraged me to tune in to Pastor Prince's sermons. Though I found peace during the sermons, I still found myself struggling with the symptoms. I ended up seeing a psychiatrist and was diagnosed with anxiety disorder and depression. In November 2020, I was admitted to the emergency room again due to hyperventilation.

That day, I decided to seek help from God by loading up a sermon video by Pastor Prince. I was eventually discharged as my blood tests came out fine. From then on, I was convinced that God was telling me there is nothing wrong with my health. The very next day, when I was alone and had the feeling of falling into another panic attack, a voice told me, "You cannot break this panic attack cycle by yourself. Let God fight this battle for you." From that moment, I decided to receive Jesus as my Saviour and began listening to sermons every Sunday and partake of the holy Communion daily. The more I listened to Pastor Prince's sermons, the more I am assured that I can cast my worries on God and let Him fight my battles.

Two months later, I went back for a check-up and discovered that my TSH level had dropped. But I still had issues with my weight which the doctor suspected was due to some hormonal complications. So, I was sent for another blood test. Despite hearing all that, I believed that I was already healed, and continued to partake of the holy Communion and feed on God’s Word.

On 8 April 2021, I went for the follow-up, and my TSH level dropped further down to 2! The blood test report also confirmed that my hormones were perfectly fine too! But most importantly, for the first time in years, I lost weight! Hallelujah!

Healed of cyst in right lung

10 January 2021 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

In November 2020, I found out that I had a whitish cyst in the lower part of my right lung. My specialist advised that I wait for a month to see if the growth would disappear on its own.

A month later, I took another x-ray and the growth was still there, roughly the same size as before.

Since the diagnosis, I had been praying to Jesus, and partaking of the holy Communion in faith every week with my husband.

Every time Pastor Prince ministered, I would tell myself that I would be the next one to be healed. I also called upon Jesus, prayed in tongues daily, and strengthened myself in the Lord.

On 10 January 2021, during the online service, Pastor Prince mentioned that someone has a whitish growth in the lung, and proceeded to say that Jesus has healed it. Tears welled up in my eyes when I heard that. Jesus didn’t forget about me! I immediately received the healing for myself.

Three weeks later, I went for a scan and the whitish cyst was no longer there! Thank You, Jesus, for healing me, and Pastor Prince, for your guidance and grace-filled teachings!

Months of intense neck pain gone

7 February 2021 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

I had been experiencing intense pain in my neck for several months and could not tilt my head backwards.

On 7 February, I watched Pastor Joseph Prince online. At the end of the sermon, Pastor Prince said that there was a lady who had been experiencing pain whenever she moved her neck, and even demonstrated how the pain would be triggered.

He then went on to say that the Lord was healing that very area, and I knew in my Spirit that the healing was for me and I received it.

Next, I moved my neck and discovered that the pain was completely gone! I could even tilt my head backwards without any pain at all. The Lord has healed me in an instant!

Praise the Lord, He is so, so, so good! Thank you, Pastor Prince!

Healed of a 15-year knee condition

31 January 2021 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

I was diagnosed with Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (PFPS) 15 years ago. It is a medical condition also known as “runner’s knee”, which causes pain under or around the knee caps. I could not carry out activities such as walking up the stairs, climbing slopes, and sometimes even standing up, for prolonged periods of time.

On 31 January 2021, Pastor Prince called out healing over knee conditions. He mentioned that the healing was not only for one knee, but for both knees! The words spoke to me, and I felt a great sense of love and warmth. I knew that the healing was for me.

I stood up and did a few squats, and realised that my knees no longer hurt! Later that day, I even carried my three-year-old twins up the stairs as they had fallen asleep when we were out. Glory to God, I could do so without feeling any pain in my knees!

Blackened toenail healed

10 January 2021 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

When I went to see my dermatologist, she noticed that I had a blackened toenail. She advised me to see her again the following month for a review as there might be a small possibility that it could be a cancerous growth.

I was worried, but prayed and trusted God to heal me. My girlfriend also asked for prayers from a few of our close friends and family members.

On Sunday, 10 January 2021, my sister-in-law alerted me excitedly about what Pastor Prince said during the online service that day. Apparently, he had prayed for someone with a toe that was blackened and dead. He even mentioned that the person had been concerned about where this condition was leading to.

As I happened to miss the sermon, I went to listen to it during the week and was deeply touched by God’s grace towards me when I heard the words Pastor Prince prayed over my situation. I claimed the healing for myself.

True enough, when I went for the scheduled review with my dermatologist, she confirmed that the old nail seemed to be dead and a new nail was slowly growing underneath! She also confirmed that there was no cancerous growth.

Praise the Lord for His healing. He never misses out on anything we care about.

Miraculous Recovery After Bone Marrow Transplant

When our son Jonas was 11 months, he was diagnosed with a rare form of leukemia. The doctors advised for Jonas to go for a bone marrow transplant as there was no cure for the disease and chemotherapy might not work.

When Jonas underwent chemotherapy, we were so grateful when the doctors said that the treatment was successful, and a transplant was not needed.

However, in September last year, during Jonas’ follow-up, we were informed that he had suffered a relapse. This time, the doctors said that he had to go through a transplant. We felt really discouraged and disappointed.

So, in December last year, Jonas went for his transplant. We were told after the transplant, that before he could be discharged, his immunity count had to hit at least 0.5 for three consecutive days.

However, his immunity count remained low at 0.2. At times, it went up to 0.4 and then it would drop again, never hitting 0.5. Jonas’ stay at the hospital dragged on past one month and then past 50 days. We were so drained and tired but we held on to Isaiah 58:8, which says, “Then your light shall break forth in the morning, your healing shall spring forth speedily, and your righteousness shall go before you; the glory of the Lord shall be your rear guard.”

On Sunday, 7 February, we received bad news. We were told that as Jonas’ immunity counts had remained so low for so long, another transplant would be required. This was one of the lowest days in our journey.

During service that day, Pastor Prince suddenly mentioned that bone marrows are important for our immune systems and ended off saying that God’s Word would penetrate into the marrows and give His people healthy blood cells. Pastor Prince even mentioned terms that we heard the doctors used. He even mentioned “bone marrow donor”. I felt so loved knowing that God was working mightily through Pastor Prince’s teaching. We were overjoyed to hear him say that “God’s word is going into the marrow to revitalise our immune system”—exactly what Jonas needs. Another heavenly wink was that that Sunday also happened to be day 58 after Jonas’ transplant, and it reminded us of the verse we held on to from the onset—Isaiah 58:8.

The next day, doctors were shocked that Jonas’ immunity count went up from 0.2 to 0.72. It went up again on the following day to 0.82 and the doctors informed my husband that Jonas could be discharged! Finally, Jonas was discharged on Chinese New Year’s Eve, just in time for our family reunion, with an immunity count of 1.3. How we all rejoiced!

On his follow-ups, Jonas’ immunity counts remained healthy and the doctors even said that his counts were beautiful. This is truly a miraculous recovery, and my husband and I saw God’s word come to pass for our family. Praise Jesus!

Gave Birth To A Healthy Baby After Miscarriage

In April last year, I suffered a miscarriage and found out that I had a molar pregnancy, an abnormal form of pregnancy where the embryo fails to develop completely.

Our doctor advised us to wait for a year before trying for another baby. At the same time, I also terminated from a new job when my employers found out about my pregnancy. Nothing in my life seemed to be going smoothly.

One night, as I was in despair, I remembered my mother sharing with me about Pastor Prince and his sermons. I decided to attend New Creation Church with my husband. We started attending regularly and were renewed with strength each week. Despite all the bad things that were happening, we experienced an unspeakable joy and peace in our hearts.

I also received a new job offer during that time.

In September last year, we found out that I was pregnant again. I was initially worried as it had only been five months since my miscarriage. Then, at week 12 of my pregnancy, the doctor also told us that our baby could be at a high risk for Down syndrome and advised me to go for further tests.

My husband and I continued to pray and believe for a healthy baby, and we also partook of the holy Communion regularly. Praise the Lord, eventually, the results showed that the baby and I were both healthy.

Our baby Eva was delivered on 10 May 2020, healthy, and full of life. Praise the Lord, and thank you, Pastor Prince, for your grace-filled teachings!

Lower Back Pain Gone After Prayer

Over the last two years, whenever I bent forward for a prolonged period of time, I would experience an ache in my lower back.

I would feel pain whenever I had to squat down to do my household chores, and would not be able to quickly stand up. At times, my back would feel uncomfortable even while standing up.

However, on Sunday, 11 October 2020, Pastor Prince called out for healing of those who were experiencing lower back pain. Immediately, I knew that I had to receive the healing. So, I cried out to Jesus and gave thanks to Him.

Now, I no longer suffer from backaches after bending down for prolonged periods of time. Hallelujah!

Heart Condition Cleared

I went for a heart check-up last month as I wanted to increase my exercise intensity. However, the doctor revealed that my heart was pumping weakly. The report showed that the amount of blood that my heart was pumping was 15 per cent lower than normal—a sign of heart failure.

The doctor suggested that I go for an angiogram to check for heart artery blockages and go for a procedure if needed.

I was discouraged because I loved outdoor activities. Nonetheless, I believed that Jesus’ finished work has redeemed me from the condition with my heart.

The following Sunday, I tuned in to New Creation Church’s online service and Pastor Prince called out for heart arteries to be cleared in his closing prayer for the congregation. I was encouraged and received the healing for myself.

A week later, I went for my angiogram, and the doctor told me that they found no blocked heart arteries or any other condition that could weaken my heart! In fact, my condition had improved so much so that I was discharged on the spot. I was overjoyed. All glory to Jesus and His finished work!

Received Healing For Shoulder And Abdomen Pain

For a long time, I have had a shoulder condition that restricted my shoulder mobility. I play squash occasionally and whenever I play, I would not be able to hit the ball hard because of the pain in my shoulder. 

Every Sunday, I would tune in to New Creation Church’s online service. On 27 September, Pastor Prince prayed for people with shoulder conditions.

After the prayer, I tried to move my right shoulder. At first, I could still feel the pain, but I chose to believe that I was already healed. So, I continued to move my shoulder and the pain left!

At the same time, I was also suffering from pain in my abdomen area. In the past, the doctor had found some ulcers in my stomach. But when Pastor Prince called out stomach conditions, I placed my hand on my abdomen to receive the prayer and the pain left. Praise God for a double portion of healing!

Right Shoulder Pain Healed!

I had been having a pain on my right shoulder for three weeks. It was uncomfortable and caused a lot of pain on the front and back of my right shoulder blade. At some point, it even affected my back as well. I also had trouble sleeping due to it.

While watching the service online a few weeks ago, I thought that it would be really cool if Pastor Prince called out my condition.

To my pleasant surprise, that was exactly what he did! I was amazed and received the prayer with gladness.

The pain did not disappear right away. But a few days later, I woke up, moved my shoulders and discovered that there was no pain at all! Praise the Lord for His healing!

Redeemed From Sleepless Nights

For the past two months, I suffered from insomnia. I would wake up in the middle of the night at 3.30am and could not go back to sleep.

It was especially stressful for me as I was looking after my daughter. My husband had to work in the office so I was left on my own to take care of my daughter and the house.

I had to take pills in order to fall asleep and was fearful that once I stopped taking them, the insomnia would return. One night, I felt led to stop taking the pills, and had peace as I did so.

I read Pastor Prince’s Eat Your Way To Life And Health and partook of the holy Communion before I went to sleep, declaring that sleep is a gift from God, and I am redeemed from insomnia. I kept meditating on Psalm 127:2, where it says that the Lord gives His beloved sleep.

After doing this for a few nights, I woke up one morning pleasantly surprised. I slept more hours and the quality of sleep was good, even without the sleeping pills! Subsequently, I had more good quality sleep. Thank you, Jesus, for redeeming me from sleepless nights!

Healed Of Shoulder Pain

I have had a left shoulder pain for about a year. Although I had been doing stretching exercises, the pain did not go away.

Nevertheless, I kept meditating on God's word, partaking of the Communion, and declaring that I would see a manifestation of my healing.

When the pain refused to go, I started to consider visiting a specialist and even made plans to do so. On Sunday, 31 January 2021, I was greatly encouraged by Pastor Prince’s sermon. Towards the end of the service, Pastor Prince started praying for people with shoulder pain. By faith, I raised my left arm even though the pain was still there.

Then, during the closing prayer, Pastor Prince asked everyone to raise their hands again. When I lifted up my arms, I realised that the pain in my left shoulder was gone!

I started moving my arm around to check if there was any pain and praise the Lord, I was completely healed!

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for faithfully sharing the Word with us. Glory to Jesus!

Pain In Right Knee Gone

I need to share this. Daddy God is so good. 

My right knee had been giving me a lot of pain for a long time. In fact, it was getting from bad to worse. 

Whenever I straightened my legs, I had to do it carefully to avoid twisting my knee cap. When I sleep, I would not able to move my legs much because of my knee. It would also hurt very badly when I get in and out of the car. 

During the online service on 31 January 2021, my knee was so painful that I started thinking of seeing a doctor and going for a surgery to fix it. 

Towards the end of service, Pastor Prince started praying for knee conditions. I told myself that it was for me! 

So, when Pastor Prince asked those with knee conditions to bend their knees, I did just that. Amazingly, there was no pain at all. I kept bending my knees to show my husband. I was overjoyed and even started jumping up and down. There was no pain at all!

Praise the Lord for His instantaneous healing! Thank You, Jesus, for this miracle!

Toothache healed

I have had a pain in my front tooth for almost two years. Whenever I drank something cold, I would experience an excruciating pain from my tooth to my head.

My dentist could not find any decay or crack in my tooth, and told me that my condition could be due to a worn-out filling. He then replaced my filling with a new one, but shared that I might have to undergo a root canal surgery if the new filling didn’t help.

Unfortunately, even after the new tooth filling, the pain was still there whenever my tooth touched something cold. I learned to live with it and was careful not to allow my tooth to touch anything cold.

On Sunday, 27 September, Pastor Prince called out various conditions and one of them was a toothache. He then pointed to his front tooth and declared that the Lord would seal it. I could not believe what I had heard and received the prayer for myself.

Over the next two weeks, I tried drinking cold water to test if the pain was still there. Praise the Lord, since that day, I no longer experience any pain in my tooth! All glory to Jesus.

Headache gone after prayer

I had been suffering from a pain in my mouth and a runny nose for about two months. I eventually went for a medical examination when I began experiencing severe headaches that greatly impacted my daily activities.

I was diagnosed with acute sinusitis and was placed on medication. But I was still experiencing sharp pain in my head whenever I stood up to walk or even tried to turn my neck.

On Sunday, 1 November, I decided to tune in to New Creation Church’s online service despite the pain I was feeling in my head. When Pastor Prince got to the end of his message and began calling out various conditions, I remained attentive.

Then, Pastor Prince mentioned a case of someone with a bad headache, and commanded the headache to go in Jesus’ name! I said Amen! Immediately, I noticed that I was no longer feeling the sharp pain in my head.

When I stood up for the blessing at the end of the service, the headache was gone! I can now turn my neck and move around without any pain in my head. I want to thank the Lord Jesus for healing me and also Pastor Prince for making himself available to be used by God to bless this generation.

No more droopy eyelid

On 13 October, I woke up with a slight discomfort in my left eye. However, I dismissed it and went about my daily activities.

The next day, I felt my left eyelid becoming heavier and droopy and I started experiencing blurry vision in my left eye. I went to see a general practitioner and was referred to the emergency department where I was sent for blood tests and an MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) scan.   

Subsequently, I was warded for observation. Thankfully, all my test results came back normal and the specialists ruled out the possibilities of stroke and neuromuscular diseases. According to them, the only possible explanation for my condition was tiredness or ageing.

I was discharged the next day without any medication or treatment, and was required to return for follow-up checks. While I felt better, my left eyelid was still droopy. I was concerned as the cause of my symptom was still not known. So, I continued to partake of the holy Communion with my family.

Then on Sunday, 18 October, my family attended to my two young boys in the morning, allowing me to sleep in. The broadcast of the first service was playing in the background and I remembered asking God to heal me.

We subsequently went out for brunch before returning home to catch the later service. While we were out, I received a text from my church leader saying that Pastor Prince had called out my condition. Both my wife and I were surprised.

We got home before the 2nd service ended and heard Pastor Prince calling out my condition! Immediately, I raised my hands to receive the healing in faith. My family was amazed and they too prayed for me.

About two weeks later, when I went for my follow-up check, the neurologist gave me a clean bill of health. My symptoms were all gone. Knowing that the neurologist was also a Christian, I showed him Pastor Prince’s video and he was amazed. He commented that in all his years of practice, he had never encountered this before. Praise God for His overwhelming love for me and for allowing the people around me to reaffirm their conviction that God is real!

No more meniscus tear in knee

I had a knee injury five years ago and it sort of healed. In August this year, my knee problem came back when I went for an evening run.

I was limping in pain and my knee was swollen. I saw a doctor and was referred to an orthopaedic specialist. He did some procedures and concluded that it was a meniscus tear and surgery might be the only option.

For two weeks, I was grimacing in pain and had difficulty walking. I was on high dosages of painkillers and steroid injections.

Then, during one of the online services in September, Pastor Prince called forth healing for knee joint conditions. I received the prayer for myself.

Over the next few days, the pain subsided and I was able to walk without any discomfort. Subsequently, I did my MRI scan and went for my scheduled medical review. Praise Jesus, the doctor told me he could not find any meniscus tear at all and I was discharged on the spot.

Delivered from multiple addictions & depression

I had been a believer for over forty years but I was miserable. I was addicted to wine and taking medication for insomnia. I was also depressed and hated my life.

I lost my godmother, my father, and my best friend of over 25 years. I also lost my job, house, and other family members.

I have a 25-year-old son who ended up in jail for doing and selling drugs. He has been stealing from others, including me, since he was 12. I also have a 42-year-old son who is an alcoholic and a marijuana user. He also sold drugs for a living.

But I still trusted the Lord. I brought my children up in church but we were under wrong believing and lived under the law. I knew life had to be more than this and that God had a calling for me, but I couldn’t find a way out of the mess. Eventually, I depended on medicine, marijuana, and wine to help me sleep and go about my daily life.

One day, I saw Pastor Prince on television talking about how as believers, we can declare that we are the righteousness of God in Christ even when we’re still in our addictions and trusting Him to break free. He also taught about the holy Communion. My spirit came alive—I’d never heard God’s Word preached like that before.

I began to declare that I am the righteousness of God in Christ and partook of the holy Communion daily. Today I have been free of alcohol, medications, and drugs for over a year! I no longer have any desire for drugs, alcohol, or pills.

Pastor Prince, ever since I started watching your television broadcast, my life has changed. I’ve also been teaching my two sons about the gospel of grace. They have been born again. My younger son in jail will be coming home any day now.

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for preaching the gospel of grace. Because I believe right, I now live right! I continue to pray for you and your family. Because of the message you preach, lives are being changed. Hallelujah!

Knee Condition Healed And Career Blessing

For the past five years, I had been having a right knee pain which resulted in difficulties getting up after sitting down.

I had consulted doctors and undergone various treatments, including taking a steroid jab and flushing out excess fluid around the knee joint. But the condition did not get better. The doctors diagnosed it as wear and tear due to my age, which is 55.

Seven months ago, my knee condition deteriorated after I had a fall at the wet market. To help with the pain, I took medication.

Around the same time, during one of the online services, Pastor Prince prayed for those with knee conditions. I stood up to receive the healing for myself.

After Pastor Prince prayed, I moved my knee and realised that the stiffness on both the front and the back of my right knee was gone! Miraculously, the area which was painful due to the fall also disappeared completely. There was no more pain in my knee!

In addition, Pastor Prince also mentioned that someone would receive good news regarding his or her career in two weeks. At that time, I had applied for a therapist position and right after the prayer, my application was granted and I started at the role exactly two weeks after. Praise the Lord!

Left Shoulder Pain Completely Gone After Accurate Prayer

I had been experiencing pain and discomfort in my left arm recently.

On Sunday, 30 August, I watched the 11.30am service with my friend. At the end of the service, Pastor Prince prayed healing over those with a right shoulder blade condition. It was not the exact area where I was experiencing pain, and I was disappointed.

Pastor Prince continued praying for healing over joint pains, and I said “Amen”, receiving the prayer for myself. But little did I know, close to the end of the ministering session, Pastor Prince described the exact position of my pain!

His description was accurate, word for word, and I was caught by surprise and joy when I heard it. When I tried to raise my left arm, there was a loud cracking sound. Those around me witnessed God’s instant healing in my life! After that, the pain was completely gone.

Praise Jesus for His loving heart, so willing to heal!

Left Shoulder Condition Healed Instantly

I had been suffering from a frozen left shoulder for years due to an injury sustained from playing the violin. There was limited mobility in my left shoulder joint, and I could not lift up my arm nor reach to the side. I had spent lots of money and time on physiotherapy, but nothing worked.

On Sunday, 27 September, I tuned in to the online service and during the sermon, Pastor Prince shared that the Lord is able to heal from a distance. He also cited an example from the Bible where Jesus healed a man from a distance by simply speaking the Word.

Pastor Prince then went on to call out various conditions, one of which was a left shoulder pain.

Immediately, I started moving my left shoulder—rotating it and lifting my arm repeatedly. Then, I heard two loud cracks and there and then, my shoulder was instantly healed!

Jesus healed me in an instant, from a distance! Thank you, Pastor Prince, for helping me fall in love with Jesus more and more each day. God is good!

Baby daughter sleeping well without nightmares after prayer

21 July 2020 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

For two years, my daughter had not been sleeping for more than four hours each night. As a result, my husband and I also did not sleep well. Our daughter would wake up in fear, and would cry and cling to us throughout the night, affecting all our family members.

A few months ago, I asked the leaders of New Creation Church to pray for me and my family regarding our sleep. We also anointed our daughter and partook of the Holy Communion together as a family.

We started to see an improvement and managed to get five to six hours of sleep. Though grateful, we continued to declare the word of God over ourselves and kept on hearing Pastor Prince’s sermons on grace.

One Sunday, Pastor Prince called out to a group of people who could not sleep well for a long time and prayed over them. Thereafter, our daughter was able to sleep well for a few days before her nightmares returned again.

The next Sunday, 26 July, God spoke through Pastor Prince once more! And this time round, Pastor Prince addressed and prayed for a lady whose child was suffering from nightmares! I received the prayer for my daughter.

Since that day, my daughter has been sleeping peacefully every night! Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your powerful words from our loving Father!

30 August 2020 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

On Sunday, Pastor Prince prophesied healing over many conditions, one of which was mouth ulcers. I knew that the healing was for me as I had been going through that for a few years.

Pastor Prince declared that God wanted me well and healed, and I received it in Jesus’ name. Subsequently, the pain in those ulcers left completely, and by the following morning, the ulcers were smaller!

All glory and praise to Jesus! I know that when Jesus heals, He heals completely and I’ll never have this problem again.

Pain Gone From Twisted Knee

30 August 2020 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

I twisted my knee about a week ago and it had been hurting. The pain got more intense on Sunday morning, and the thought of going to the Tradtional Chinese Medicine doctor crossed my mind. I dismissed it and declared that by His stripes, I am healed.

During the service at 11.30am, Pastor Prince was calling forth healing for the joints. The moment he mentioned the knee, I shouted to receive the healing, and the pain immediately went away!

Healed From A Pain In The Right Shoulder Blade

30 August 2020 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

I had been having pain in my right shoulder blade for many months. Whenever I applied pressure on it, there would be pain and the pain would extend to my neck.

On Sunday, Pastor Prince called out and prayed for someone with a pain on the right shoulder blade. I lifted up my hands to receive the healing. Pastor Prince then told us to move our shoulders and check to see if the pain had left. I ignored it as my shoulder blade would only hurt when I applied pressure on it. Even after the prayer, the pain was still there.

At 5.30pm, I tuned in to the service again. When Pastor Prince prayed for the healing of the right shoulder blade, I lifted up my hands again and received. This time, I did as Pastor Prince said and moved my right shoulder. As I moved, the pain seemed to go away. I tried massaging the area, and realised that I did not feel any pain at all!

God had indeed healed me, and I shared the good news with my wife immediately. Praise Jesus!

At the end of the service on Sunday, Pastor Prince called out for those who had pain in their shoulders, and proceeded to pray for them.

Healed Of A Right Shoulder Condition

16 August 2020 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

For two weeks, my right shoulder would ache badly whenever I moved it. On Sunday, 16 August, I had a very hectic day and was very tired when I reached home.

It was ten minutes before the start of the last online service. I was struggling to keep myself awake while waiting for the service to begin. However, deep in my heart, I felt that I needed to hear the sermon that day.

At the end of the service, Pastor Prince said that there was a man who could not move his right shoulder, prayed for him, and asked him to stand up and try moving it. I knew he was calling out to me, and I immediately jumped out of my bed and started moving my right shoulder. I could hear the bones and joints clicking into place, without pain!

I was so touched that I cried and raised my hands to praise Jesus, forgetting about my tiredness. All glory to our Lord!

Pain In The Chest Gone

16 August 2020 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

On the day of the service, I prayed for God to use Pastor Prince to call out my condition and pray over me. I had been experiencing a pain that comes and goes in the middle of my chest for three months.

I was worried that it could be my heart. That morning, I was feeling the pain again and it was the third day in a row that I felt it. I continually confessed that by Jesus’ stripes, I am healed, and that the work is finished on the cross!

Sure enough, Jesus answered my prayer! Pastor Prince called out and prayed for my condition as he ministered and specifically mentioned to not worry, as it is not the heart.

The next day, I woke up with no pain at all! It has now been three consecutive days and the pain has not returned. Jesus has borne all my sickness and disease on the cross!

Pus On Gum Gone

16 August 2020 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

I had been having pus on the gum of my left wisdom tooth for several years. I consulted several dentists and most of them advised me to extract the tooth. The extraction was scheduled to be later this year.

On Sunday, towards the end of the service, Pastor Prince called out to someone who had pus on his gum, and said that God wants to heal that area in particular. I put my finger on the gum and received the healing for myself.

A few days later, I went to the dentist for a review and asked the dentist to check if there was still any pus. He checked and could not find any remaining! Praise the Lord for His healing!

My right neck had been stiff for months, and I had trouble turning my neck to the right. This made driving and working on my computer difficult and painful.

During the service on Sunday, Pastor Prince prayed for those with a right neck condition, and even mentioned the part about not being able to move the neck to the right!

I immediately jumped up from where I was and received the healing. I was healed instantly and can turn my neck to the right without any pain now! Praise the Lord, and all glory to Him!

Healed Of A Neck Problem

16 August 2020 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

Two weeks ago, I woke up unable to turn my neck. I did some stretches and dismissed it, as I’ve had conditions like this before and they normally go away after a couple of days.

That night, while sleeping, I woke up in pain and I could not go back to sleep after that. I tried all sorts of stretches and medicine over the next few days, but the pain did not go away.

On Sunday, when Pastor Prince mentioned and prayed for someone with pain in the right neck, I jumped up to receive my healing and the pain just melted away. I turned my neck from right to left, and the pain was no longer there!

The pain did not return and I can now do my morning stretches without any pain. Praise the Lord!

Healed From A Severe Stroke

My brother-in-law had a severe stroke and was sent to the hospital’s emergency department. He was weak and his right arm was stiff and subject to involuntary movements. He also suffered a speech impairment.

When my care group members rallied around us and prayed for him, he became better. Later that evening, he seemed weak again with the same symptoms and his doctor called for another scan.

At that time, I boldly proclaimed that there would be no death in my family. I flipped open Pastor Prince’s book, Eat Your Way To Life And Health, and landed on the page with a testimony of a stroke patient’s miraculous healing. I knew then, that God was there with us, caring for us.

That night, my brother-in-law slept through the night and was transferred to the normal ward the next morning. I visited him the following day, only to find him perfectly well, sitting down, with no apparent symptom of stroke. The doctor also told me that he was confident that my brother-in-law’s strength would return to him.

Through this episode, the goodness of God was experienced. My sister told me that she believed Jesus healed my brother-in-law when my care group members came together to pray for him. She has also started to listening to songs of worship and is receptive to Pastor Prince’s teachings

God’s got us in His mighty hands!

Healed From Body Aches After Prayers From Care Group Members

I had been experiencing an ache in my left shoulder and neck for the past month. The pain radiated down to my upper arm. It was very painful and bothering me greatly, especially with the household chores and cooking that I had to do, all of which seemed to aggravate the condition.

I partook of the Holy Communion daily and declared the Lord’s healing over me. I also did some stretching exercises.

During an online care group session, my leader asked if any of the members needed prayer for healing. I knew then that the Lord wanted to heal me. I felt a warm and tingling sensation along my left neck, shoulder, and arm, as the care group prayed for me. While we were praying in tongues, I started massaging my arm and felt that the pain had significantly reduced.

There was a marked release of the tightness in my shoulder and neck muscles, and I experienced more mobility when I moved the affected areas. The familiar soreness was gone! The pain progressively eased over the next few days and completely disappeared after a while.

Praise the Lord. He has healed me and I believe that the pain will never return.

Healed From A Backache That Affected Sleep

28 June 2020 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

I had been having a pain on the upper part of my back for more than three weeks, which affected my sleep. I could not lay down straight and tried positioning my body in different ways to soothe the pain so I could sleep, but none of them worked.

On Sunday, I was hoping that Pastor Prince would declare God’s healing over my condition, and he did! He called out a few conditions and mentioned those who had pain in the top area of their backs, affecting sleep. I identified with it immediately and jumped up with joy saying, “It’s me! It’s me!”. Then, I stretched out my hands to receive the healing.

Nothing seemed to happen initially. The pain was still there as I stretched my back. I went about the day as usual and when it was time to sleep, I felt a little fearful to lie down. I eventually did so gently and to my surprise, the pain was gone! I tossed to the right and to the left, I got up and lay down again, and there was no more pain!

All glory to Jesus!

Healed From Persistent Headaches

I had been having headaches daily for a few months. I would often wake up in the middle of the night and not be able to go back to sleep. Most of those nights, I would go to the kitchen to get pain killers. Even after that, I would still wake up in the morning with throbbing headaches.

During that period, I would take pain killers four times per day. I would also partake of the Holy Communion daily.

On 27 June 2020, I could not sleep because of the headache. When I tuned in to the service the next day, Pastor Prince called for someone with a headache and declared healing over the condition.

As he prayed, I felt warmth all over my head and received the healing! I went to bed that night and slept through until the next morning without experiencing any pain. Praise the Lord!

No More Pain In The Head!

28 June 2020 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

I had been experiencing pain in my head, near my left eye. Whenever I engage in certain exercises with my left hand, there’d be a stinging pain in my head.

On Sunday, near the end of the service, Pastor Prince called out to those who had headaches and proceeded to pray for them. I quickly touched the area where I would experience pain and believed for the healing to manifest.

When Pastor Prince told us to try doing what we could not do before, I immediately tried doing the exercise that would normally cause pain in my head. Amazingly, I could not feel the pain at all!

Knee Pain Caused By Meniscus Tear No Longer Hurts

31 May 2020 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

I suffered from a meniscus tear in my right knee late last year. After three months of physiotherapy, I was able to walk without pain.

However, I would experience pain every time I tried to get up from a squat. Hence, for the past six months, I did not squat.

On Sunday, Pastor Prince prayed for those with knee pain during the online service. I stood up to receive my healing. When I tried to squat, I could still feel the pain. But when evening came, I was able to squat and get up without any pain. All glory to Jesus!

Lower Back Healed Supernaturally Quickly

31 May 2020 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

On Sunday, I woke up with a lower back pain due to overexertion during my exercise. It was not the first time I had experienced this, and usually the pain would go away within two to three days.

That same day, I tuned in to New Creation Church’s online service. At the end of the service, Pastor Prince called out various conditions, including lower back pain, and prayed for those who were suffering from it. I stood up to receive the healing.

That night, the pain began to reduce. The next day, it was completely gone! This is one of the rare times I have ever recovered so quickly from a back pain. All glory to God!

Back Pain Gone

31 May 2020 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

Last Saturday, I spent the whole day lying on the sofa as I had sprained my lower back during a workout. I could not sit for more than an hour before I had to lie down.

I was in constant pain and could not turn, bend or walk properly. Even though I had gone for an acupuncture treatment, the pain was still there.

The next day, my mum had to lend me her heat pad so that I could sit through the service. Towards the end of the sermon, Pastor Prince prayed for those with lower back pain. I knew immediately that it was for me, and jumped up from my seat to claim my healing.

That afternoon, I was able to walk without much pain, but there was a bit soreness. In the evening, I tuned in to the 8.30pm service just to hear the prayer once more at the end of the service. This time round, I could turn my back, squat, and move about with ease! There was no more pain! Praise the Lord!

Mum's Instant Double Healing

31 May 2020 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

My mum and I were introduced to Pastor Prince’s sermons by a friend a few weeks ago. Since then, we have been tuning in and listening to his sermons. At times, we would watch his messages two to three times a day.

My mother, who is close to 70 years old, had been finding it difficult to get up from a sitting position. And when she finally gets up, she would have to keep her back bent for a few minutes before she could straighten up and walk. In addition, she also had a pain in her right arm and had difficulty raising it.

On Sunday, Pastor Prince called out to those with backaches and said that there was someone experiencing difficulty getting up from their seat and would experience pain while doing so. Then, he invited the person to stand. 

My mother, who was sitting next to me, sprang up from her seat to receive her healing. I was astonished that she stood up so quickly! She kept sitting down and getting up over and over again with the ease of a child. There was no more pain in her back! She was completely healed.

Then, Pastor Prince started praying for those with pain in the arm, and my mother raised her right hand, and it shot straight up. It was a double healing for my mum! Praise the Lord!

Eighteen-Year Chronic Knee Pain Gone!

31 May 2020 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

Eighteen years ago, I had a fall and my right knee landed on a concrete pavement, causing me to stay in bed for a week. 

Since then, I would often experience pain in my right knee. Last month, the pain returned and it radiated to my right hip and ankle. My whole leg was swollen and I would experience excruciating pain whenever I moved.

My doctor suggested that I go for further tests. Meanwhile, I continued to partake of the Holy Communion daily and declare healing over my knee.

Last Sunday, I tuned in to New Creation Church Online and Pastor Prince prayed for those suffering from knee pain during the service. He also mentioned that there was someone with an old injury on the right knee, and the condition had worsened during this period.

I knew that the healing was for me. I stood up and starting walking, bending and straightening my knees. I am completely healed! Praise the Lord!

Healed From A Right Knee Condition

31 May 2020 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

Two months ago, my right knee became sore after I stood for too long helping my wife in the kitchen.

It didn’t feel too bad at first, but as the days went by, the tightness around my right knee got worse. Recently, even crouching or kneeling down was painful. I would get a cramp after getting up from a crouching position.

Last Friday, the pain became so bad that I did not go to work. On Saturday, I still felt the tightness around my knee, and bending it or crouching would worsen the condition.

On Sunday, 31 May, I woke up early and was singing praises to give thanks to God for His provision in my life. At that time, I was not particularly concerned about the pain in my knee. However, I felt in the Spirit that someone was going to pray for me that day. I tuned in to New Creation Church’s online service and towards the end of the sermon, Pastor Prince prayed for those with back pain, and asked them to place their hands on their back to receive the prayer.

Pastor Prince then reached down to touch his right knee and prayed for those with right knee pain. Even before he said “right knee”, my hand was already on my own knee as I knew that God would heal it.

Pastor Prince then asked those who received the healing to move their knees slightly. I did so and felt that the tightness surrounding my right knee was gone! I walked around with a painless knee and joy in my heart. Praise the Lord for healing me!

Old Injury In The Right Knee Healed

31 May 2020 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

About three months ago, I triggered an old injury in my right knee while exercising. There was a discomfort in my knee which made me stop going for runs. I waited for my condition to improve, but the discomfort showed no signs of going away.

On Sunday, at the end of Pastor Prince’s sermon, he called out to those with an old injury in their right knee and prayed for them. I was surprised and proceeded to stand up and shake my right leg as directed by Pastor Prince. The discomfort from my knee was gone!

That evening, I went for a run and noticed that my knee was fine, and I could run comfortably. Thank You, Lord, for healing me!

Healed From A Chronic Back Pain

29 March 2020 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

In 2000, I sprained the lower right side of my spine when I was going down a slippery flight of stairs.

I sought professional medical treatment, but the pain remained. In the last two years, after hearing healing testimonies, I also started partaking of the Holy Communion more regularly. Recently, in light of the COVID-19 situation, I decided to wait upon the Lord for healing instead of visiting my chiropractor.

Towards the end of the 11.30am online service on 29 March, Pastor Prince prayed for those with lower back pain and asked them to respond. I stood up immediately, and in a split second, the pain left my back. It was such a relief.

I know that it was the Lord’s doing. All I did was to rest by listening to Pastor Prince’s sermon and act on God’s directive. All glory to His name!

Toothache Healed Immediately

22 March 2020 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

Recently, I went through reconstructive dental surgery. Although the procedure went well, I had a toothache where the dental implant was. I was afraid that it was due to inflammation and asked God to heal me as I did not want to visit the dentist before my next scheduled appointment in July.

Last Sunday, my wife and I tuned in to New Creation Church’s online service. During the time of ministering, Pastor Prince mentioned that someone who was watching the service had been struggling with a toothache.

When I heard that, I knew that the prayer was for me. Then, I felt a tingling sensation on my face, and my toothache disappeared! Praise the Lord!

Severe Toothache Healed Through A Video Excerpt From A Week Before

On the first Sunday of April, I woke up with a severe toothache. I remembered Pastor Prince praying for those who were suffering from toothaches the previous Sunday during the online service. I had the thought that if that prayer was prayed this week instead, I would be healed.

Still, I partook of the Holy Communion along with the church, and declared healing over myself. Amazingly, when Pastor Gabriel was reading out the testimonies from the previous week, an excerpt of Pastor Prince ministering from the previous week was shown, and I got the opportunity to hear it again.

When Pastor Prince declared healing over toothaches through that video excerpt, the pain in my tooth left!

It truly reminded me of the theme of the year, which is “Time And Space”. Even though the ministering happened a week earlier, I got healed this week. Even though Pastor Prince was speaking from Singapore, I still got to receive my healing in India. Thank you, Jesus, for paying the price for my healing!

Migraine Healed After Partaking Of The Holy Communion And Applying Anointing Oil

From the age of 15, I had been having bad migraines every month. It came frequently and I depended on paracetamol to ease the pain. At times, I would even vomit.

I became a member of New Creation Church about two years ago, and  ever since I heard Pastor Prince preach about the Holy Communion, my boyfriend, who recently became my husband, and I would partake of it daily.

For two years, my migraines miraculously stopped. A pain I had endured for many years went away naturally!

However, last week, a bad migraine hit me out of the blue. I was worried that it was coming back again. I partook of the Holy Communion, and prayed for it to go away. I was also in the first trimester of my pregnancy, and did not want to take pain medications that were not suitable for my condition.

Then, I remembered I had the anointing oil. I immediately applied it on my forehead and temples before I prayed for the pain to go away. I then rested on my sofa and amazingly, within a few minutes, the pain was completely gone!

I was so happy, and I knew it was God who had healed me.

No More Pain In Elbow And Jaw

I have been having a persistent ache in my jaw for a month, making it painful for me to chew. Recently, I went for a wisdom tooth surgery to treat the pain, but it only made things worse and I couldn’t eat properly after that. I was also nursing a muscle strain in my elbow.

On Sunday, when Pastor Prince ministered healing during the online service and called out both my conditions, I was pleasantly surprised, and stood up to receive the prayer.

I did not feel any difference immediately after that, but that night, I applied the anointing oil on my elbow and jaw, and trusted that it was just a matter of time before the healing manifests. The next morning when I woke up, I realised that all the pain in both my elbow and my jaw were gone!

No More Heart Palpitations

For two weeks, I had been experiencing heart palpitation every night when I lay down to sleep. I did not know the cause of it.

The condition would stop whenever I prayed and applied the anointing oil. But the heart palpitation would always return the following night.

On Sunday during the online service, Pastor Prince prayed for those with heart conditions at the end of the service. I knew then that he was referring to me. I put my hand on my heart and received the prayer.

Since then, I have not been experiencing any heart palpitations! All glory to Jesus!

Relative Healed Of COVID-19 Symptoms And Parents Protected From Virus After Partaking Of The Holy Communion

I am living in New York City, the epicentre of the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States.

Recently, a relative who stays with my parents, developed a cough and fever that refused to go away. He was tested for COVID-19 and days later, the results were found to be positive.

My parents were scared and panicky when they received the news as my mum has asthma, and my dad has a heart condition. When my mother called to update me, I encouraged her to partake of the Holy Communion as often as possible with my dad as taught by Pastor Prince.

That evening, my mother also asked the relative who was not a believer if he would allow them to pray for him and partake of the Holy Communion together. He agreed, and everyone in the household partook of the Communion together.

The next morning, the relative who was sick woke up soaked in sweat. And his cough, fever and congestion in the chest were gone!

Since then, it has been more than 14 days, and no one else in the household got infected with COVID-19. I believe partaking of the Lord’s Supper had healed my relative and delivered the rest of my family from the virus. Glory to God and thank you, Pastor Prince, for your teaching.

No More Eczema

I have had eczema since young. It was a persistent condition that affected my fingertips, causing blisters to form. My skin would also become dry, and would crack and bleed. Doctors would prescribe me with medication such as steroid, but they could did little to help my condition. Over time, eczema became something that I had learnt to live with.

But things changed after I heard Pastor Prince preach on the power of Jesus’ sacrifice and the Holy Communion. He explained that when we partake of the Holy Communion, we should rightly discern the Lord’s body which was broken for our healing, and His blood that was shed to make us righteous.

His teaching caused me to realise the power of Jesus’ sacrifice, and the importance of making a distinction between the bread and wine. So since last year, I started partaking of the Holy Communion regularly to receive my healing which was paid for by Jesus.

At first, my eczema did not go away, and even grew worse. It spread from my fingers to my palms, and at one point, it became so painful that I could not even type on my laptop without my skin cracking and bleeding.

Thankfully, Pastor Prince always stressed that our healing does not always happen immediately. It can come gradually, but there will surely be healing. So, I persisted and stood firm on partaking of the Holy Communion.

At times, I would ask the Lord why He was taking so long to heal me. Thankfully, my friends from church would encourage me to stand firm that by Jesus’ stripes, I am healed. Listening to Pastor Prince’s messages also strengthened my belief, and assured me that I would see my full restoration.

One day when I was worshipping in church, I saw a vision of dirt specks flying away from my hands and felt a cool breeze. At the same time, Pastor Prince also affirmed that there was a breeze sweeping across the place and that was the Holy Spirit sending healing.

As weeks passed, my condition got better and better. Now, my skin is completely healed. My fingers no longer itch, and there are no more blisters! Praise God and thank You, Jesus!

Protected From COVID-19

Last month, four of my colleagues and I attended a business meeting. About two weeks later, we were informed that two attendees at the meeting had contracted the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19).

We were assured that the two attendees were seated far away from us. I did not think much about it since I did not experience any symptoms and 14 days had passed.

The next day, we received news that one of the colleagues who was with us at the business meeting, returned to work after being away for Chinese New Year. He was observed to be very sick, and was coughing and running a temperature. But he continued to report for work at another worksite. He was then asked to leave in the afternoon, and go to the National Centre for Infectious Diseases (NCID) to be tested for COVID-19.

That same evening, the rest of us who were at the same business meeting with him were asked to go for the tests as well. That day, we were cleared to go home, but the colleague who was sick remained for further testing. Eventually, he tested positive for COVID-19.

Contact tracing was carried out, and three other colleagues who had close contact with him were put on Quarantine Order. More than 30 colleagues who worked in the same building with him on that day were put on Leave of Absence for two weeks. I was also required to work from home as part of the measures taken by the company.

During this time, fear crept into my heart as I kept hearing about new cases in Singapore each day. I also started to get paranoid. So, I listened to Pastor Prince’s sermons and also read his book Eat Your Way To Life And Health again. I prayed that my colleague who was tested positive would be the last person from the business meeting to be infected. I also claimed the promises of Psalm 91 over me and my family.

Eighteen days later, my family and I remained healthy, and none of us came down with the virus. God is truly our protector!

Healed By Jesus, The Lord Of Time And Space

Since December last year, I’ve not been in the best of health. It started when I went for a minor surgery. A couple of days later, I had difficulties clearing the pressure in my ear. As a result, I felt dizzy.

The doctors could not find anything wrong with me, but the condition persisted. Then, a chronic backache returned and I was in pain for several days, which required me to lie down for long periods of time. When I was feeling better from the backache, I came down with a bad bout of cough and fever. The cough was so bad that it kept me awake most nights. I even pulled a muscle due to it.

The cough got better after a week on antibiotics. Two days later, I started feeling unwell again. I felt so weak that even doing simple housework would leave me breathless. Due to the health issues, I was unable to go to work. I got really worried as I’d missed four weeks already. I’d never been this sick before.

I felt disheartened and wondered why I was sick so often. During this period, I took the Holy Communion more than once a day, each time declaring that by Jesus’ stripes, I am healed. However, I did not seem to be getting better.

Just before Chinese New Year, my family planned a short trip together. Tickets were booked in advance, but I was unsure if I could make it for the trip. Even on the day of departure, I was feeling unwell. Nonetheless, I went ahead as I did not want to disappoint my family. I did not attend church that day as we had to be at the airport.

My sister, who attended the first service, sent me a text telling me that Pastor Prince said, “If you find yourself falling sick often, know that the Lord is bringing you to a new level of health.” As I read the text, I said amen, receiving this timely word for myself.

Immediately, I felt the weakness and symptoms of my sicknesses leaving me and I felt my energy restored. I did not have any ear problems during the flight. Throughout the trip, I was able to do everything with my family. The word was given in church and I had received it at the airport. Jesus is indeed the Lord of time and space. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your faithfulness in revealing the Word of God and for bringing us closer to Jesus!

Healed From Backache During Service

In July last year, I started to experience a sharp pain on the right side of my bottom after a night sleeping in a bad position. It happened on a Saturday. By Monday, I could not move about freely due to the pain. Standing, walking, and driving became difficult and I had trouble sleeping as well.

Throughout the week, I partook of the Holy Communion with my family, believing for the pain to go. However, it persisted.

On Sunday morning, during worship, I had a feeling God was going to heal me.

Halfway through the sermon, Pastor Prince stopped and pointed to exactly where I was feeling the pain. He then called for those who are experiencing these pains to stand up and receive their healing. He even mentioned about not being able to sleep well.

I hesitated to stand but Pastor Prince kept calling out the same condition. I knew that there was no running away, and felt the Lord prompting me to stand.

Pastor Prince turned towards me as he was praying for those who stood up and declared that I was free from backaches. I remember feeling a numbness running through me, from my right waist all the way down to my right foot. There was also a hot sensation in my body.

I knew right there and then that the Lord was healing me completely. After the service, I could walk normally without the pain or tightness I was suffering from for the past week.

I continued to believe and pray for a complete healing for my back as I also have a slipped disc, which was causing discomfort. Today, I am completely healed from my backaches, and functioning even better than before!

Healed From Severe Eczema

Nine years ago, I was diagnosed with severe eczema. There was an outbreak on both my legs and pus could be seen on the wounds. The condition also caused me to have insomnia every night due to the itching.

Over the next six years, I tried all kinds of remedies but none of them worked. Once, I even spent hundreds of dollars to see a specialist and was given the strongest steroid cream to treat my condition. But even so, the doctors told me that there is no cure for my eczema, only prevention.

Hearing that, my hopes were crushed and I was extremely depressed as my legs used to be fair and smooth.

Since then, I completely changed my wardrobe and stopped wearing anything that revealed my legs.

Three years ago, at one of the services, Pastor Prince preached about the power of partaking the Holy Communion in faith. Encouraged by that, I started to partake of the Holy Communion daily and decided to let go and trust God for His healing.

I stopped looking at my symptoms and started believing. I do not know when it happened, but my eczema simply disappeared! It has been almost three years now and there isn’t any sign of eczema on my body.

Thank You, Jesus, for your healing. All glory to You!

Healed From Torn Ligament On Left Ankle

Three months ago, I tore my ligament on my left ankle while exercising. I only sought treatment after a month as the pain persisted. I could not take long walks or engage in high-impact exercises. My doctor was worried that the injury was caused by a bone condition and ordered a bone density test for me.

During a Sunday service, Pastor Prince invited those who were suffering from ankle injuries to stand and receive their healing. I stood up, but the pain did not go away immediately. I continued to pray and partake of the Holy Communion. Soon after, I noticed that the pain had subsided.

At my medical review a few days ago, the doctor confirmed that my ankle was healed! He was also surprised that my bone density result was normal. Praise the Lord for His healing and preservation of good health!

Healed From Skin Infection

I had been suffering from ringworm (a fungal infection on the skin that is highly contagious) on both my legs for more than a year. Even after trying various medications, praying, and rebuking the sickness, it did not go away. I was discouraged.

As I was praying one day, the Holy Spirit reminded me to see myself seated with Christ and made whole in Him through the cross.

Then, I was led to listen to a message online, titled When Life Doesn’t Make Sense by Pastor Joseph Prince. After hearing the message, I went to bed. In the middle of the night, I felt something leave my foot and I woke up suddenly. At that moment, I felt the Holy Spirit telling me that I’m healed.

Sure enough, the condition was gone and I am completely healed! I can now wear shorts and be out in the sun, play with my children and hug my wife. All glory to Jesus!

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for preaching on the finished work of Jesus Christ!

No More Heel Pain

I had been suffering from a pain in my right heel bone for more than a month. Initially, I thought that the pain was due to my shoes and got them changed. However, even after that, the pain did not go away.

On 22 September 2019, I attended the first service at The Star Performing Arts Centre. Pastor Prince called out and prayed for those who were suffering from pain in their ankle. I believed that God was calling out my condition.

After that, there was no more pain in my heel and I was able to walk with ease. Praise the Lord!

Healed Of A Knee Condition

On Sunday, 6 October 2019, Pastor Lawrence Lim asked if anyone needed prayer for healing. I stood up as I had a right knee condition that was causing me pain. I also often felt uncomfortable when I had to stand up from a sitting position.

I felt the pain ease after the service as I walked up the stairs to exit the auditorium. I climbed each step with confidence, believing that I am well. Gradually, there was no more pain!

Praise the Lord! He is truly an awesome God.

Mother Healed And Gives Birth To A Healthy Baby

Earlier this year, I received great news that my relative’s wife was pregnant. It was her second pregnancy. During her first pregnancy, her unborn child had been diagnosed with an infectious disease.

In March this year, I received a call from my relative, telling me that a parasite infection had infected his wife, and might affect the baby.

My relatives were devastated by the news, and sought help and comfort. They were not believers, but I believed and trusted that the Lord would help them.

I shared with my relative about my personal encounter with God and suggested praying together. He was so willing to listen, and I proceeded to teach him how to pray. I also shared with one of our church pastors on a Sunday, and he prayed with me for my relatives’ well-being.

A month later, my relatives called and said that the medical review showed that the infection was gone! God is so good. Their baby boy was born in September and both mother and child are well. I thank God for answering our prayers. I am in awe of His love—a love that reaches even those who don’t believe.

Multiple Liver Conditions Gone

During my annual heath screening, the ultrasound scan picked up the presence of a non-cancerous lump in the liver. This was on top of my pre-existing conditions: liver echogenic lesions (groups of abnormal cells) and fatty liver.

My family and I have been attending New Creation Church for about seven years. We would partake of the Holy Communion regularly at home, trusting in the finished work of our Lord Jesus Christ. 

About a month after the health screening, Pastor Prince ministered the Lord’s healing and called out liver conditions. I was overjoyed! But my heart sank the moment Pastor Prince said that he was referring to a lady.   

Several ladies stood up, and one of them was standing behind me on my left. And when she was being prayed for, I cried out to God and asked that Pastor Prince would also pray the same prayer over me. 

Thereafter, Pastor Prince continued with his sermon. But suddenly, he stopped and said that someone had asked God to have him pray over the same condition that he had prayed for over the lady. Pastor Prince asked who that person was. 

I stood up and Pastor Prince prayed for me. He also asked God to give me a brand new liver. During the prayer, I could feel a warmth all over my body, and was trembling. Then, Pastor Prince asked me to lay my hand on my abdomen where my liver was, and continue to do so until the warmth dissipated. He went on to share that he saw a vision of me laying hands on myself, and that the same healing that came when Jesus laid hands on the sick was on me too! Only my heavenly Father would know that I have been laying hands on myself whenever I experienced aches in my body. 

At my next annual health screening, the results showed that there are no lesions or cysts in my liver, and I no longer have fatty liver! Even my overall cholesterol level had dropped.

My colleagues could not believe the report seeing that I did not change my lifestyle or diet. Indeed when God restores, He restores everything—even a brand new liver! Glory to Jesus!

Baby Whole And Well

My husband and I have had two miscarriages three years ago. It was a difficult time, and it was also challenging for us in hoping to be pregnant again. 

The following year, Pastor Prince preached a message titled Change How You See And Change Your Life. I kept listening to it and something changed on the inside of me. The fear of miscarrying started to disappear and I stopped focusing on wanting to have a baby. Instead, I began to enjoy life. God painted a faith picture in my heart to see and believe that I would be pregnant again and be able to carry a baby to full term.

Three months later, I got pregnant and delivered a baby boy at full term! We named him Emmanuel, which means God with us.

At Emmanuel’s first check-up however, he was diagnosed with a hole in his heart. It was termed a birth defect and while it did not require surgery, the cardiologist said that the hole may or may not close by the age of five. We were told that Emmanuel could live like a normal child, except that he should avoid high intensity activities. Hearing this, we could not help but feel sad that our baby would have to live a “compromised life”.

Then, we were reminded again by Pastor Prince through his sermons, as well as our friends in church, that the promises of God are sure and true. God gave us the gift of a miracle baby, and He is continually working for Emmanuel’s good.

We began to look to the Lord and prayed for the hole in Emmanuel’s heart to close so that he would be able to lead an active life. Over the next few months, Emmanuel grew very well and it was heartening for us.

At his sixth-month check-up, the cardiologist did a heart scan and confirmed that the hole in Emmanuel’s heart had closed, and that he would officially close Emmanuel’s case! We never thought it would be this soon as the cardiologist was initially reluctant to see us this early because most holes in the heart do not close that quickly. 

God is so good. All glory to Jesus!

Running Again!

I had stopped running for six weeks due to a pain in my right knee, and I grew concerned about how long I would be unable to run. 

In June, I attended a camp for volunteers and care group members from the West Zone. On the first night of the camp, a leader gave a word identifying someone in the camp who loved running and was suffering from a knee pain. At that moment, I knew the word was for me, so I stepped forward to ask for prayer and Pastor Jeffrey Tan prayed for me to be healed.

Several days after the camp, I went for a long run and though it was quite a tough route with slopes, my knees were fine and there was no pain at all! All glory to Jesus!

Delivered From Two-Year Ankle Pain

Two years ago, I injured my ankle while taking my dog out for a walk. Later on, I realised that my ankle had become swollen. Whenever I walked up the stairs, I would cry because of the pain. I couldn't walk properly and I felt useless, to the point where I even thought of ending my life. 

In July this year, Pastor Prince prayed for healing over ankle conditions. That day, I kept touching my ankle and realised that the pain was gone and the swelling had subsided!

It was the best gift from God as my birthday was just two days later. Now, I can even wear heels!

God, My Healer

Sometime in April, I strained my neck and would feel pain whenever I turned my head. I did not see a doctor as I was believing God for healing.

Weeks later, Pastor Prince called out my symptom during a service and asked those with pain to move the part that was hurting. When I turned my head, I heard a soft "cracking" sound. Suddenly, I realised that the pain in my neck was gone!

Thank You, Lord Jesus!

Living Life Loved

I’m an international student and have been studying in Singapore for nine years. When I entered polytechnic, my mother who had been with me had to go back home, and I was left to take care of myself.

Soon after she left, I had a major emotional breakdown as I couldn’t adjust. I was also physically exhausted as I had to juggle between school and a part-time job.

Things got so bad that I couldn’t attend school for two weeks. At work, I would get angry over minute things and scold my customers, colleagues and even my managers. I felt extremely apprehensive and hopeless. There were days when little things would drive me to tears, and it was hard to see any way out. I hated myself for being like that.

I was attending a church at that time. However, I did not fully understand the Lord’s love for me. I developed a bitterness towards God as I felt like He did not care about my feelings.

During this time, Pastor Prince’s sermons kept coming to mind. Earlier in the year, I had watched his sermons and I did not expect that his messages would bear witness to my spirit, and linger in my heart and mind.

I decided to attend New Creation Church, just to try it out. On Sunday, 17 December 2017, I attended the 4th service alone. After that service, I felt an unspeakable peace. I started to attend more regularly and in 2018, I made New Creation Church my home church. I also joined a care group for youths.

Today, by God’s grace, I am receiving more and more revelations of God’s unreserved love for me. In the past, I used to try very hard to get right with God, but now, I know that I am totally forgiven, eternally righteous and forever accepted because of Jesus’ finished work. Whenever worrisome thoughts hit me, I would always remind myself that God loves me. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for preaching on the pure grace of God! It has transformed my life.

Healed From Severe Muscle Aches Through The Communion

I would often suffer from severe muscle aches due to the many physical training modules I took in school.

I had been hearing sermons about the Holy Communion and the testimonies shared in church. One evening, I decided to partake of the Holy Communion and pray for my severe muscle aches to go away as I had been having trouble walking throughout the day. Immediately after partaking of the Holy Communion, I got up from the chair and I could no longer feel the pain! My muscles were also no longer tense, and I could jump and walk normally!

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your teachings on the Holy Communion. Hallelujah! Praise the Lord!

A Father's Salvation

My father had always been against Christianity and he would scold those who tried to evangelise to him.

Around three to four years ago, he was diagnosed with late stage lymphoma (a cancer that attacks the body’s immune system). The doctors had no solution nor was anyone confident of my father’s survival.

He eventually went for chemotherapy. Things seemed fine at the beginning. I tried to share with him about Christ, but was rejected over and over again. After a lengthy period of treatment, things turned for the worse. My father was in immense pain and regularly stayed in the hospital. On top of that, the side effects of the treatment also affected his mental capacity. It caused much distress in the family.

The turnaround came when I felt the Holy Spirit prompt me that it was time for my father to be saved. I contacted New Creation Church’s Chinese Ministry and arranged for volunteers to come to my parents’ place.

The moment they spoke to my father, I could tell that there was a peace upon him. They were chatting, then a miracle happened—the volunteers invited my parents to say the salvation prayer and both of them accepted Jesus as their Lord and Saviour!

The volunteers also prayed for my father’s condition. By God’s grace, two years after that meeting, my father has no more symptoms of lymphoma. All glory to Jesus!

Conceived Despite The Negative Reports

One of my three prayer requests at the beginning of the year was to get pregnant. However, I was still breastfeeding my firstborn, and was having irregular periods. Hence, it was impossible for us to plan a conception.

In October, I bled for almost the whole month. I saw a doctor who said that because I was still breastfeeding, my hormones were going haywire, and I needed to stop breastfeeding to regulate my hormones and cycle.

When I asked about the chances of conceiving, she laughed and said that it was next to impossible. Again, she advised me to stop breastfeeding and if irregular bleeding persisted, I’d have to go on hormone replacement therapy.

I was crushed as I had wanted to breastfeed for as long as possible, and dreamt of nursing two children in tandem. Being a doctor myself, I knew that my gynaecologist was right. Nonetheless, I had to remind myself that God was sovereign and His ways are the high ways. He is above the ways of the world and He has the final say. One touch of Jesus’ cloak healed the lady with the issue of blood and so, I claimed similar supernatural healing and regulation of my cycle without having to stop breastfeeding or go on hormone replacement therapy, and believed that He would give me the desires of my heart.

I wanted to be bold about it, but my husband who attended the same consultation as me was unconvinced and told me to listen to the doctor. I surrendered the burden to Jesus. I told Him I was going to trust His healing and provision.

One day, I was blessed watching a worship service on Psalm 23 by Pastor Prince. I soaked in the Word and meditated on my Abba’s goodness and grace, believing that His goodness and mercy would hunt me down.

Later that same month, I conceived! It was a miracle! Even the doctor was surprised that I had conceived based on the blood test and scan results.

My father who is an obstetrician with over 30 years of experience was incredulous that I conceived after he read the doctor’s report. My doctor is one of the most renowned specialists in London. Her investigation findings and diagnosis were all accurate, but that same month, my God swooped in to restore my health, overanswering my prayers and surprising us with His provision.

On 24 July, my second child was born. I am grateful to be under Pastor Prince's ministry and guidance to right believing. All glory to Jesus.

Pain In Finger Joint Left Supernaturally

On Tuesday, 13 August 2019, I experienced pain in my left finger joint after making kimchi (a Korean vegetable dish). It had never happened to me before. I tried to massage the pain away but it remained until Sunday.

I had come to realise the importance of gathering as a church, especially on Sundays. I believe that as we behold Jesus, His anointing and blessings would come upon us just as His Word says in Psalm 36:8, “They are abundantly satisfied with the fatness of your house”.

In the past, I used to think that during times of ministering, only the symptoms that were called out by the pastor would be healed. But later, I realised that when the Spirit is moving, it is time for God’s healing power to manifest in our lives and it is not restricted to those conditions that are called out. In addition, being a daughter of Abraham by faith, I believe I am also fully qualified to be healed.

On Sunday, 18 August 2019 when Pastor Prince started to call out chest and ankle symptoms, I got excited and expected to be healed even though my condition was not mentioned. And the result? My pain was gone!

Praise the Lord for loving us. Thank you so much, Pastor Prince, for your ministry and this church.

Lump Disappeared After Partaking Of The Holy Communion

One day, I discovered a big, hard lump near my right ankle. I was not troubled as I had been watching Pastor Prince’s video clips for some time, and the gospel of grace has taught me a lot about being at peace in times of trouble.

I felt the peace to keep trusting in Gods power and to partake of the Lord’s Supper every day.

For three months, I would feel for the lump every morning. As days passed, the lump did not grow any bigger nor did it shrink. But I continued to partake of the Holy Communion every day.

Then, one day, when I was taking my bath, I tried to feel for the lump and realised it was gone!

Thank You, Lord Jesus!

Arm Able To Move Again

On Saturday, 10 August 2019, I woke up with a throbbing pain on my right shoulder and was not able to move my arm.

I took some painkillers but the pain did not go away. I took two different kinds of painkillers over the next two days, and managed to get rid of the throbbing pain.

However, I was still not able to move my right arm. The doctor was not sure what was wrong with me and suggested that I go for a magnetic resonance imaging scan.

On Sunday, 18 August 2019, I attended the second service at Marina Bay Sands and Pastor Prince said there was someone in the congregation who was suffering from a muscle pain, and he pointed at his right arm.

So, I tried moving my arm and realised that I could do it without pain. Thank You, Jesus, for healing me!

Child Born Healthy And Strong

I was 35 years old with a 10-year-old son when I wanted to have a second child. However, due to my husband’s job and financial situation, it was difficult for us to do so.

When my husband was posted to his hometown in Kolkata, India, I started to ask God for a second child. Every day, I would also watch Pastor Prince’s sermons and read his teachings. I would also listen to him sing. I especially love the video where he sang the psalms of David, and encouraged us to cast our cares upon the Lord.

Praise God, I conceived! When I was five months pregnant, I went for a quadruple screen test (a prenatal test that evaluates the chances of birth defects), and the results came back stating that my child had a high chance of suffering from Down syndrome.

I was shattered. I cried to the Lord and emailed the church for prayer. I also partook of the Holy Communion. Then, I went for another screening and this time around, the test result stated that my child was perfectly well.

Today, my boy is four months old. He is healthy, smart and cute. All glory to God!

Weeks Of Pain Disappeared Instantly After Prayer

Sometime in April, about two weeks ago, I went to the gym as usual. After I was done, I started to feel pain in my arms, and thought it was the normal afterburn effect that I usually feel. But that night, I suddenly felt dizzy and fell backwards, hitting the back of my head on the ground. Thank God my friend was visiting me at that time, and I was not alone.

About 20 seconds after I regained consciousness, I was not able to talk or move my arms. I kept calling out to Jesus in my mind. Gradually, I could move my fingers, talk and get up.

I went to the hospital, but the doctor couldn't figure out what was wrong with me as there wasn’t anything odd with my report. They gave me painkillers and sent me home. However, the pain at the back of my head, neck, arms and fingers remained even after I finished my medicine.

During the week, I kept partaking of the Holy Communion and declaring that I was healed by His stripes. As each day went by, the pain slowly subsided, but it did not seem to go away.

On 10 February, I felt prompted to drive down from Malaysia to Singapore to attend church at Shaw Theatres Seletar with my mum. During the service the pain suddenly worsened, and I felt very restless. That day, Pastor Lawrence Lim was preaching and I felt that God was speaking to me and that the sermon was specially tailored for me, addressing the exact issues that I was facing in life.

After service, we met a brother at the Connect Point for prayer. As he started praying, I could feel the pain in my arms disappear! After almost two weeks of numbness and stiffness, I was finally able to move my arms effortlessly!

Glory to God! Thank you, Pastor Prince, for teaching us who we are in Christ Jesus, and how God never fails to deliver on His promise!

No More Post-Natal Blues

In 2009, I suffered from an ectopic pregnancy (a case where the embryo attaches itself outside the uterus). As a result, my left fallopian tube ruptured, causing massive internal bleeding, and I required an emergency surgery to save my life.

Then, my gynaecologist placed me on long term contraceptive pills to help regulate my menstrual cycles, as well as to prevent further unplanned pregnancies.

Come 2017, my husband and I were both in our mid-30s, and we wanted very much to grow our family. At that point, I had not received Jesus, but I knew that when my child came, he or she had to be a blessing from God, whoever He was. Thank God, we conceived within just three months of trying. Even my gynaecologist was pleasantly surprised to see us so soon!

My baby boy was born healthy and strong after 42 weeks of gestation through a smooth, and reasonably short labour.

However, being a first-time mother, I was not fully prepared for caring for a newborn as well as the demands of breastfeeding. It was my desire as a mother fully provide for my baby. However, the struggles of surviving on interrupted sleep and worrying if the baby was having enough to drink took a toll on my body.

Slowly, I slipped into post-natal blues. Eventually, I ended up with mastitis and abscess, a form of bacterial infection inside my breast. I had to go for a procedure and was put on antibiotics to prevent a recurrence.

At that point, I was so depressed and exhausted that I broke down at the clinic. Then, one day when I was at home with the baby, I saw Pastor Prince’s book Live The Let-Go Life which was given to me by a dear friend of mine who attends New Creation Church. She had visited me at the hospital when I delivered and given me the book.

 

So, I started reading the book while the baby napped. After some time, it became so clear to me what God was doing for me in my life even before I knew Him, and what the Lord Jesus had done for us at the cross.

 

One week after Resurrection Sunday in 2018, I started attending New Creation Church. My sister, who is also a member of the church, started attending services with me and we got to spend time together every Sunday.

In November 2018, both of us were baptised together!

Now, I have a healthy baby boy who is turning 16 months old and I am believing God for another baby girl!

I am no longer suffering from post-natal blues and all my friends have been telling me how positive I have become. I have also learnt to enjoy being a mummy ever since I understood the need to let go of all our worries to the Lord.

Thank You, Lord Jesus, for loving me even before I knew You. I am greatly blessed, highly favoured and deeply loved. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for writing the book!

Son Entered School Of Choice

In November 2018, we met Pastor Alvin Kang at my husband’s baptism, and asked him to pray for our son who was taking his Primary School Leaving Examinations end of the year. Pastor Alvin prophesised that Jesus’ fingerprints would be written all over his results. We were very encouraged by the word and held on to it.

On results day, my heart sank when I saw that my son’s score was one point short of entering his desired school. That night, God reminded me that his score had double five in it. As Pastor Alvin had prophesised, Jesus’ fingerprints were indeed written all over his results. The numbers were clear to me that we would experience His double and perfect grace.

The next morning, we continued to believe that God was working behind the scenes to lower the cut-off point for the school’s admission. We submitted the school application form and trusted God.

On 19 December, the day when the school posting results were out, I woke up early and waited for the text message from the Ministry of Education. The message arrived promptly, and my son was posted to the school of his choice! Glory to God!

It turned out that his school was one of the few that had their admission cut-off scores reduced that year. It had to be God's double and perfect grace in my son's life.

Not only so, in February this year, my son received a letter to visit the student health centre to check on his spine. Before seeing the doctor, we sat down and prayed for a normal report. And that was what exactly happened.

According to the doctor, school assessments were usually accurate but this was not so in our case. After reassessing my son’s spine, she confirmed that there was nothing wrong with him!

We know that Jesus is always for us and because He is, nothing can be against us. Hallelujah!

Abscess Completely Gone After Prayer

I have had a lump on the left side of my back for more than two years. I didn’t see a doctor as it was neither painful nor was it bothering me at all.

However, it was visible enough for my housemate to notice it, and she encouraged me to see a doctor. Nonetheless, I told the Lord Jesus that I do not want to be worried about it, and that it was His problem, not mine.  

Last December 2018, I hit the lump by accident and the pain was terrible. I could not raise up my arm. Finally, I told myself that this could be the Lord’s way of telling me to see a doctor and so I went.

The doctor said that it was an abscess—an infected cyst made up of oil glands and prescribed some antibiotics.

When I asked her if I could remove the abscess surgically, she said that it was possible, but it would likely not be covered by my insurance.

After a week, I went back to her for a review, and she noticed that the swell had reduced. I told her that the lump was still slightly painful, and she gave me more medicine.

After another week, I went back again. By then, the pain was gone. But the lump was still there and I could feel it whenever I lie on my back which was not the case in the past. So I asked the doctor if she could give me a referral to have it operated on, because I was worried that I might hit it again. But she told me that no doctor would perform the procedure as the lump had become smaller, and that it would just remain as it was.

I was sad and disappointed. Then, I received an email invitation from my ministry to attend a session where those with prayer needs will be ministered and prayed for. Immediately, I registered for it, and wrote down all my concerns about the lump.

As I was writing, I imagined the ministry leaders praying over my condition, and God answering it. Days later, as I was going through my email, I realised that I had missed the session! I had forgotten about it completely!

I was devastated and disappointed with myself. Suddenly, I felt an itch on my back. I went to the bathroom to look at my back in the mirror and to my surprise, I could not see the lump! It was gone like it had never been there!

I used my fingers to feel the area, thinking that it could be under the skin. But I couldn't feel anything at all! Then I remembered that I wrote my prayer request asking God to remove the lump. God has answered my prayer.

Instant Healing From Wrist Pain

On Sunday, 26 January 2019, I attended the 2nd service at Marina Bay Sands Ballrooms. During the service, my 18-month-old daughter was feeling restless, and while trying to calm her down, I injured my right wrist. 

Despite the pain in my wrist, I had to carry my daughter close to my chest throughout the service to soothe her to sleep. Gradually, my wrist turned numb and I couldn't feel my right thumb.

I told my husband about the pain, and that I had to put our daughter in the stroller even before she fell asleep. When Pastor Prince called out the Lord’s healing for those with shoulder pain, I sat there praying for the pain in my wrist to go away.

At that very moment, Pastor Prince told the congregation to stand up to receive God’s anointing and healing, and I felt an instant relief from the pain in my wrist.

I could move and rotate my wrist in all directions, without any pain! Also, my wrist movements felt lighter and smoother. It was as though the joints were lubricated! Hallelujah!

After the service, I was able to carry my daughter without any pain. All glory to Jesus!

Aching Pain In Left Shoulder Gone

I had been suffering from an aching pain in my left shoulder for about 10 days after exercising.

I tried several remedies such as icing my shoulder, and applying heat patches. But there was hardly any improvement.

As my physical trainer course was nearing, I started to worry about the pain in my shoulder. I was afraid that I might not be able to recover in time.

Just a day before the course commenced, I attended a service in church, believing that I would be healed in Jesus’ name. Towards the end of Pastor Prince’s sermon, he invited those with left shoulder pain to stand.

Immediately, I stood up and Pastor Prince started to pray for the people. Then, my left shoulder felt much better and I could not feel any pain.

Praise God for His wonderful healing work!

Weeks Of Pain In Neck And Shoulder Gone

I had been having a lot of discomfort and pain that stretched from the left side of my neck to the shoulder for two to three weeks.

I had difficulty turning my neck to the left, and my left shoulder felt strained. On Sunday, 27 January 2019, I attended service and asked God to call out my symptoms. When Pastor Prince called out for left shoulder pain, I was surprised and stood up to be prayed for.

Shortly after the prayer, I could feel a warmth on my left shoulder. The next day, all the pain and discomfort in my neck and shoulder were gone. Now, I can even turn my head to the left. Praise God!

Dad’s Enlarged Prostate Glands Reduced And Multiple Tumours Gone

In 2015, my dad in Sri Lanka was diagnosed with an enlarged prostate. Doctors suspected cancer, but thankfully the biopsy came back negative. However, he was put on a treatment to manage his prostate condition and had to go for regular check-ups as my grandfather had died of cancer.

About four years later, the doctors found further enlargement of my dad’s prostate gland and in addition, multiple tumours were found in his femur (thigh bone). Being a degree holder in bioengineering, I knew that this was not a good sign as it could mean that cancerous cells had spread to the bone marrow.

The doctors also suspected the same, and wanted to do a full body scan for my dad. We also shared my dad’s reports with my cousin who is a renowned cancer consultant. She too concurred with the doctors. Fear gripped our hearts.

I have been attending New Creation Church for over five years and I listen to Pastor Prince’s sermons repeatedly. I have also read Pastor Prince’s books, and have been sharing his teachings with my family, who also watch his sermons on YouTube.

After we received the doctor’s report, I video-called my parents and we partook of the Holy Communion together. We also held firm to God’s healing promises. For the next few weeks, we continued to partake of the Holy Communion every night, and we could feel a sense of peace and joy. My dad also stopped having fearful thoughts and we anticipated that when the scan is done, the doctors would not be able to find any tumours.

This was exactly what happened! The doctors and my cousin were baffled by the results! The doctors then asked my dad to do another scan and biopsy to confirm that he was in the clear. Praise God, once again, everything showed that my dad was in perfect health. Even his prostate gland had reduced in size.

All this happened without any treatments or medical intervention. Praise be to God!

Back And Chest Pain Gone

I was doing some packing and spring cleaning in preparation for Christmas when I felt a sharp, electric shock-like pain in my lower back. 

The pain was so excruciating that I had to sit down immediately. I remained seated and could not move for the next 20 minutes. After which, I picked myself up, and staggered towards my bed to lie down. The next day, I went to see a doctor and I was referred to a back specialist. After a CT (computerised tomography) scan, it was found that I had a slipped disc. 

The doctor gave me strong medicine and referred me to a physiotherapist. To cut the long story short, I went for many physiotherapies and even tried chiropractic treatments. But the pain, though lessened, was still there. 

I told myself that I did not want to settle for anything less than a pain-free back. Then one Sunday, Pastor Prince mentioned that God was healing people of back pains. 

I stood up believing that God would heal me, and it did not matter which venue I was at. During the prayer, I felt a warm sensation and voila! The pain was gone! My back was healed! I could even start my exercise regime. 

Two months ago, I experienced chest pains and had difficulty breathing. After consulting the doctor, he recommended that I go for an electrocardiogram (ECG) test. 

The test showed that my heart was normal and that there was nothing wrong with me. However, the chest discomfort continued. The doctor mentioned that a CT scan would provide a more accurate assessment and scheduled me for the scan the following Monday. Prior to the scan, I continued to experience discomfort and pain in my chest. The day before the scan, I went to church as usual and during the service, Pastor Prince mentioned that God was healing people of chest pains. 

Once again, I stood up believing that God is all powerful, and that He is more than willing to make me whole. The same warm sensation flowed through my chest and the pain slowly dissipated. 

The next day, I went for the CT scan and the results showed that my heart was strong and healthy, and all the arteries were clear. Praise Jesus! I know that He loves me and wants me to be healthy and strong.

No More Dizzy Spells After Prayer

On New Year’s Day, I suddenly had severe dizziness. It was nothing like what I had experienced before. I literally felt my whole world spinning, and it got worse when I tried to lie down in bed. I woke up in the morning feeling nauseous, and with a bad headache. My family prayed for me and advised me to visit the doctor. I said I would go the following day when the clinic reopened if I was still sick. 

The next day, my condition worsened. My head was spinning even when I was seated. It was a struggle for me to make my way to the clinic.

After the check-up, the doctor confirmed that I had Meniere’s disease (an inner ear condition) in my left ear. And the severe dizzy spell I was experiencing is called vertigo. 

I was put on medication but continued to feel sick. On Sunday, I attended the third service at Marina Bay Sands Ballrooms, and I wasted no time in praying and believing God for healing. After the service, I felt a warmth in my ear, and less dizzy.

The dizziness lingered the following week, though it was not as bad as before. That Sunday, Pastor Prince started calling out many conditions during the service. Although my condition wasn't called out, Pastor Prince reminded us that our Daddy God is a mighty healer and He wants to heal us. 

That very moment, I put my hand on my left ear and claimed complete healing over it. There and then, I feel a great warmth in my ear, and I could literally feel a "popping" sensation. 

Immediately, I shared my experience with my husband, but I did not dwell too long on it. Later, after church, I realised I was no longer dizzy when I looked down to hug my son! 

That night, I was even able to have the weekly tennis game with my husband, and felt completely well. It has been almost two weeks and the dizzy spell has not returned. Praise the Lord!

No More Trace Of T-Cell Lymphoma After Partaking Of The Holy Communion

After my daughter found a lump on her neck, somewhere below her right ear, I brought her to a general practitioner who suspected something serious and told us to get an X-ray done at a hospital. 

At the hospital, the doctor ordered a series of blood tests as well as an X-ray. After a long wait for the results, she explained to us that my daughter could be suffering from lymphoma, a form of blood cancer. She arranged for us to see an ear, nose and throat (ENT) specialist the week after. We called our regular ENT specialist and insisted that he see us the next day. 

After examining our daughter and the reports, he too suspected it could be lymphoma. He arranged for more blood tests as well as a biopsy to be done that afternoon. The next day, the blood test and biopsy results showed that my daughter was highly likely suffering from T-cell lymphoma. 

The ultrasound also showed that all the lymph nodes around her neck area were oddly shaped. He explained his diagnosis to us and told us to make a decision quickly to start with chemotherapy as our daughter was still young, and the cancer cells could spread very quickly. 

This was followed by more tests, X-rays and many visits to the hospital. I was at a loss. It was a big blow to me. The toughest part was to break the news to my husband who had been travelling a lot. I had to explain the diagnosis to him, but was not able to answer his questions. Our daughter became very sick. All the symptoms of lymphoma showed up, confirming the diagnosis. 

We asked all our Christian friends and family members to pray for the healing of our daughter. I called my brother-in-law, who was an oncologist and a specialist in this field. After he spoke to the laboratory professor and doctor to understand the situation, he explained my daughter’s condition to us. 

At that point, my world collapsed. I could not stop worrying for my daughter, and could not bear to see her suffer. In fact, she was about to start on her third year in university and I could not imagine her postponing her studies to undergo treatment. 

I even asked God to let me have the disease, in place of my daughter. But God immediately told me that He is the Healer, and He is not the one who puts diseases on people. 

We started praying daily as a family, believing God for healing. Finally, the doctors decided to send my daughter for another biopsy. 

Though we were told not to put our hopes high, we believed in the power of prayer. Right after the biopsy, my husband thought of our close friends who attended New Creation Church. So, he called them and they prayed and partook of the Holy Communion on behalf of our daughter. Then, the most miraculous thing happened. 
When my daughter was wheeled back from the operating theatre, my husband noticed the lump on her neck had reduced in size. We were confused and asked the doctor if he had removed the cancerous cells. But he smiled saying it was not possible to remove them just like that. 

After discharge, we noticed that the lump continued to shrink and by the next day, it was gone. We knew this was the miracle we had been praying for. 

We went to see the doctor after the biopsy results were out and praise God, no lymphoma was found! Instead, the final diagnosis was a mere infection. The doctor could not explain the difference between the two reports. But we told him it is God, our healing God. Praise God for His miraculous healing.

Healthy Baby Born In Spite Of Ectopic Pregnancies And Down Syndrome Diagnosis

Several years ago, my wife Anna experienced an ectopic pregnancy and had to remove her fallopian tube to preserve her life. The doctors also shared with us that because both Anna’s fallopian tubes were blocked, we could only get pregnant via in vitro fertilisation (IVF).

Devastated, we found it difficult to get close to God and attend church. Yet in those painful moments, we chose to give praise to Jesus for His goodness. 

By the grace of God, we started attending New Creation Church again. Whenever Pastor Prince asked us to lift up our three prayer requests for the year, we would always have one common desire—to have a child. 

Then, Anna experienced her second ectopic pregnancy. A year later, we tried IVF, but failed. 

During this time, work was not promising for me. I felt oppressed in my workplace and was facing retrenchment. But Jesus is faithful. Subsequently, I got headhunted and received a job offer in Qatar with a 400 per cent increase in overall benefits. 

After we moved to Qatar, Anna conceived naturally and the doctors were confounded. During the pregnancy, we were advised to take the Harmony prenatal test, and our unborn son was classified as a Down syndrome baby. Though this test is said to be 99 per cent accurate, we believed that Jesus has the final say. 

Throughout the rest of the pregnancy, many of our friends thought that we had great faith in Jesus. But truth be told, we were constantly attacked by negative thoughts. The only two things that kept us going were seeking Jesus in the Word, and hearing about Him through Pastor Prince’s sermons. 

Against all odds, our miracle baby Judah was born perfectly healthy with no Down syndrome.

Neck And Shoulder Pain Gone

I attended New Creation Church’s Sunday service at one of the cinema venues and was shocked when Pastor Prince shared that there were people suffering from neck and shoulder pain at the service. I was one of them. 

As Pastor Prince asked the people to stand up and get prayed for, I was too shy to do so. But in my heart, I was longing to get healed. 

I had been to various therapy sessions but nothing worked. My neck was in pain and the spine in my neck region was slightly protruding. My left shoulder also had a painful lump. 

Towards the end of service, I asked God if He could heal me as I was too shy to stand up earlier. Then, I heard a small voice saying, “I will heal you.” 

Then, I turned my neck and shoulder, and heard a loud cracking sound. My neck and shoulder felt light. I turned my neck left and right, and found that the lump was gone. The spine in my neck region was also no longer protruding. 

Glory to God!

Years Of Neck Pain Gone In An Instant

I had been suffering from a low-grade pain at the back of my neck for about seven years. Despite going for X-rays and scans, the doctors could not find any cause for the pain. I went for many treatments, including physiotherapy, massages and acupuncture, but the pain did not lessen. Many times, it would even worsen after the treatment and I would not be able to turn my head! 

At one of the church services, Pastor Prince asked for those with neck pain to stand. I stood up believing that it was my turn to receive God’s healing. Right after Pastor Prince prayed, the pain went away and I could rotate my head without any pain in my neck. 

However, later in the evening, I noticed that the pain came back again. Two thoughts filled my mind—the healing was only momentary, when the anointing fell during the service, and this was the counter-attack from the devil to turn my eyes away from the healing that I had already received. I chose to focus on the second thought, and to not think too much about it. 

In fact, I stopped thinking about it until almost three months later when I realised that I did not suffer from the pain any longer. Today, I can confirm that I am completely healed from my neck condition. The pain has never returned since the evening after that service. 

Praise be to God!

Tumour and pain in foot gone after applying the anointing oil, partaking of the Holy Communion and praying

In early 2018, my wife and I relocated from Singapore to Hong Kong. Since then, we have settled into a local church and have been watching Pastor Prince’s sermons on his website and on cable TV.

In early October 2018, I began to feel a sharp pain in my left heel which would render me almost paralysed. My wife and I would pray against the pain and it would leave. However, over the weeks, I noticed that the pain returned more frequently. Once, it lasted for about 45 minutes. So, we finally decided to go for a scan even as we continued to partake of the Holy Communion, anoint myself with oil, and pray for healing.

We had an MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) scan done in early November and found that there was a growth, likely a large tumour, of about 2 cm in my left foot. The orthopaedist proposed to use medication to contain the growth and surgery to remove it. But we decided to go to the Lord our Healer.

Having heard of the testimony of the sister who was healed of a lump in her chest after declaring that as Jesus is without any lump so is she in this world, we also believed the Lord can and is willing to do the same for us. So, we wrote on a Post-it note declaring that “As Jesus is without any tumours or growths in His heel, so am I! Amen!”.

We would declare this daily, partake of the Lord's Supper, pray and anoint myself with oil. We also asked for prayers from our ministry leader and friends from New Creation Church. The senior pastor and care group members from the church we are attending in Hong Kong also prayed together with us in agreement.

At one of our prayer sessions, I saw a vision of the Lord’s hand touching my heel and received a word of encouragement from Him. A few weeks later, we went to another orthopaedist and did a second MRI scan. This time round, there was no growth or tumour!

After learning about my earlier scan and diagnosis, the orthopaedist requested for both scans to be sent to his radiologist for a more detailed study. The final report confirmed that there was no tumour, lesion or growth of any kind in my foot. My condition was dismissed as a tendon inflammation due to overexertion, and no surgery or drug was required. The orthopaedist even shared that he had never seen anything like this in his 30 years of practice!

Praise Jesus for His healing grace and miracle! The pain in my foot has not come back since early January. Glory to Him!

Foetus’ heartbeat detected again after prayers and partaking of the Holy Communion

My family and I had always wanted another child. But as the time went by, I gave up because I was already past 40, and it is not easy for women my age to conceive in the natural.

One day, my younger daughter asked me when I would have another child. So I told her to pray, and that God would give us one. That night, I couldn’t sleep. I did a pregnancy test and realised that I was pregnant!

However, during the first check-up with the gynaecologist, we were told that the foetus had no heartbeat and that it was common for women of my age to produce eggs that were not as healthy as younger mothers. Furthermore, it would not be my first time losing a child as I have had two miscarriages before.

We were told to wait for another week to see if the foetus had any heartbeat. If not, I should have a procedure to remove it.

By then, I had been listening to and translating Pastor Prince’s messages for four-and-a-half years. Besides being blessed by his preaching on the grace of God, I was also deeply impacted by his teachings on the Holy Communion. Though I have been a Christian almost all my life, I had never known the true meaning of the Communion until I heard Pastor Prince’s teachings.

During the following week, we prayed, partook of the Holy Communion, and believed God for a miracle.

At the next check-up, the foetus still had no heartbeat and I was told to make an appointment for the procedure. I hesitated because I had not worked out our daughters’ childcare arrangements with my husband. But the gynaecologist thought it was because I was too heartbroken and said I could wait for another week before going for the procedure.

During this time, we prayed with the girls, and told them that we would still get to see the baby in heaven even if he was not born. I continued to pray for peace in my heart and listened to Pastor Prince’s messages.

I went for a third check-up and this time, there was a heartbeat! Even the doctor was surprised. By that time, I should have been eight weeks pregnant, but the doctor said that my baby was the size of a six-week-old foetus. I believe it was because the baby was revived and started to grow again when we started to partake of the Communion. Our miracle baby boy was born healthy and happy. God is great and faithful!

Nasal Condition Cleared, Sleeping Disorder Cleared

For the past three to four months, I had been suffering from a nasal infection and was sneezing constantly. It was so bad that I had to make sure that I brought tissue paper wherever I went. 

I visited the doctor twice, and was given antibiotics on both occasions. Even though I completed my medication, nothing seemed to work. Two weeks passed, and I was still having flu symptoms. 

I visited another doctor and was told that I might have caught another infection and that it would be over soon. However, things got worse as the days went by. 

I would wake up as early as 3am, struggling to breathe and being unable to go back to sleep thereafter. I would end up staying awake for the rest of the morning until I had to leave for work. I got tired of the condition and resorted to using sleeping pills to get me through the night. 

In mid-November 2018, I was attending the first service at GV Yishun when Pastor Prince invited those who were having trouble sleeping and using sleeping pills to sleep, to stand and receive their healing. 

I stood up in faith. An ambassador serving at the venue also stood together with me and my wife. When Pastor Prince was praying, I could feel a sense of peace, and tears flowed down my cheeks. 

That very night, I had the peace to go to bed without my pills. In the morning, I woke up when my alarm rang and I did not struggle to breathe! All praise to God. I am healed! 

I’m happy and proud to say that I have been sleeping very well ever since. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for preaching the gospel of grace.

Mum’s Speedy Recovery From Stroke

In 2017, my mum, who had always been healthy and active, was suddenly taken ill. Within a few hours, her mild giddiness had turned into a full-blown stroke. The neurologists said that it was a severe stroke as there were two massive lesions in her brain and brain stem. 

As the brain stem is where the vital nerves and vessels are located, a massive stroke lesion there could have dire consequences. In addition, my mum developed a thyroid storm (a life-threatening condition where the patient’s heart rate, blood pressure and body temperature could soar to dangerously high levels) which complicated the condition. 

She had to be admitted into the ICU (intensive care unit) straightaway and was totally unable to move or speak. She drifted in and out of consciousness, and whenever she was conscious, she tried to communicate with us, but to no avail. 

Our family was distressed and felt lost. On the third day, a good friend of mine, who attends New Creation Church, came to know about my mum’s condition. She reminded me that no matter what we see, we should never feel defeated because Jesus reigns! 

We prayed over my mum and claimed Jesus’ complete healing upon her. On the same day, my mum was able to open her eyes and even uttered a loud “Amen!” I knew at that very moment that Christ Jesus was truly present, and He would heal my mum. 

My mum’s vital signs improved quickly and by the next day, the doctors were confident that she was able to get out of the ICU. 

Though my mum had to be fed through a tube, bathed in a supine position, and had her mobility totally compromised, she was spirited and highly positive. 

I believe that the Lord was with her and her faith was strengthened. She listened to Pastor Prince’s sermons every day during the rest of her hospitalisation and her recovery was remarkable. 

We prayed every day and proclaimed the promises from Isaiah 53:3–7 that by His stripes we are healed. We know that Jesus died so that we can live and we believe that all would be well. 

My mum underwent physiotherapy sessions like many other stroke patients. In spite of the difficulties, the sessions were fruitful. Upon discharge, she was able to eat and speak normally. She made a full recovery within two months and has been walking unaided. 

The doctors, nurses and therapists were all in awe, and very happy to witness such a rare recovery. It has been more than a year since, and my mum is back to her normal lifestyle. 

Now, she visits the therapy session every week to befriend stroke patients and give them moral support. She shares about Jesus to those who are seeking Him. 

My family and I are truly grateful to our Lord Jesus. My niece and nephews who witnessed this entire recovery have also been attending church with us. 

We praise and thank God for His lovingkindness to give us His only Son, Jesus Christ, who sacrificed for us so that we can be made whole! Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your anointed sermons and ministry! God bless you and the church!

Restored Back To Health After Heart Failure

I joined New Creation Church two years ago and have been attending church since then. 

In early November 2018, I was admitted to the hospital for heart failure. My condition at that time was pretty bad. My heart muscles were operating at under 30 per cent capacity, and my blood pressure was consistently over 180. 

This caused several problems for me. I couldn’t breathe lying down or doing activities such as climbing uphill or walking faster. I would be out of breath after a few steps. 

In addition to that, my body started to swell due to water retention, and my weight increased. I weighed 114kg when I was warded. 

The doctor said that if I had put it off any further, I would have had a cardiac arrest and it could have been “game over” for me. 

Well, my body did shut down two weeks before I got warded. It was one of the worst things that could happen. I couldn’t breathe and my body went into survival mode, cutting off all bodily functions to conserve oxygen and sending whatever little supply that was left to the brain just to keep me from passing out. 

It was both frightening and embarrassing. The first night when I was warded, I couldn’t sleep as I was more worried about my business and the medical bill than my health. 

On the second night, I prayed and asked God for healing. Then, I remembered Pastor Prince’s message on resting in God while He works. I prayed and felt the peace of God coming upon me like a gentle assurance, and felt the Holy Spirit say to me, “Let Me show you what happens when you rest, and I work.”

After that, I slept like a baby. Over the next three days, I started to purge out excess fluid from my body—about four to five litres a day, and my blood pressure started to drop steadily. 

Even my doctor said that I was responding very well to the medication. Thank God for giving my doctors wisdom as they were also testing a couple of new procedures on me at that time. 

Throughout my nine-day stay at the hospital, I prayed and rested in God. My body weight and blood pressure continued to drop steadily and I had the best sleep that whole year. 

As of 18 November 2018, my weight had dropped a whopping 16kg and my blood pressure is within the healthy range. 

Furthermore, in the past, I could never walk a few steps uphill without running out of breath. But now, I can run up a whole flight of steps like it was nothing! Hallelujah! The Lord has brought me back from the brink of death, restored my health and given me new strength as it is written in Isaiah 40:31!

No More Low-Lying Placenta, Experienced Smooth Delivery

My husband and I had been trying for a second child without success for two years since our first child was born. 

Hence, we decided to seek medical advice. In August 2017, we went for a check-up and found out that I have endometriosis, a condition where endometrial tissue grows outside the uterus, and may drastically reduce the chances of conceiving naturally. 

The specialist referred us to a hospital for IVF (in-vitro fertilisation) treatment. Knowing how mentally and physically tough it is to go through IVF, I prepared myself by saying, “If this is what I have to go through, I know the Lord will be with me throughout the whole process.”

The specialist ordered a series of tests for us to undergo before we could proceed with the treatment itself. Before we began the tests, my husband and I held on to God’s faithfulness and one of our three prayer requests for 2018 was that we would have a baby. 

Shortly after, I conceived naturally. No tests and IVF were required! Hallelujah! Throughout the first and second trimesters of my pregnancy, my placenta was lying low in my uterus, a condition known as placenta previa. This increased the risk of bleeding during pregnancy and delivery. 

By week 30, the placenta continued to be low-lying, and covered the cervix, which meant that I would not be able to give birth naturally, and would need to consider a caesarean section. 

The obstetrician commented that it was unlikely for the placenta to move up, given that I was already in the third trimester. She advised me to go on light duties, and to immediately head to the emergency department if I experienced any signs of bleeding or labour. 

We continued to pray as we knew God’s plan would be the best for me and our baby. By week 34, the placenta surprisingly moved up so much that it was no longer covering the cervix, and a normal delivery was possible. This could only be God’s work! 

One day before my planned induction, I went into labour. My labour was a short five hours and my baby was born with the umbilical cord around his neck. 

He was born slightly blue, but recovered quickly and was assessed by the paediatrician to be healthy. We are really thankful that God has kept my baby safe throughout the delivery process, and we were back home 24 hours later. 

We are really thankful to God for Pastor Joseph Prince’s teachings and his ministry, the church and its postnatal support group who are always there for us. 

Thank you for glorifying the Lord Jesus!

Mum Miraculously Cancer-Free

In May 2016, my mum was diagnosed with cancer and had to go through two operations. The first one was to remove the tumour, and later on, to remove more tissues around the area as well as the lymph nodes. 

When my husband and I went back to Germany to visit her in mid-June, she was supposed to start chemotherapy as a test showed that her cancer was highly aggressive. Fearful of the side effects of chemotherapy, she requested for another test to see if she could receive other forms of treatments.

During our stay in Germany, I prayed a lot with my mum, read Bible verses to her and shared testimonies with her. We got her to focus on God’s goodness, love and good plans for us to be cancer-free and pain-free. 

We assured her that God wants to heal, despite all the people she knew who had died of cancer, and told her to meditate on Psalm 91:7—"A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it shall not come near you.”

As my mum’s mother, grandmother and aunt had died from cancer, we also reminded ourselves that Jesus has indeed broken any generational curse of cancer in our family. We partook of the Holy Communion using a German translation of Pastor Prince’s book.

On 21 June, the doctor told us that based on my mum’s test results, she no longer has cancer, there is a very low chance of recurrence and she does not need to go for chemotherapy. 

This was naturally impossible as all her previous tests showed she had cancer. The doctor could not believe the result and even said that they must have taken the wrong sample. He then initiated another similar test and the result came back equally positive, proving that the earlier results were correct and God had indeed intervened! 

We thank Jesus for this miracle!

As Jesus Is Without Any Blocked Arteries, So Am I

From the beginning of 2014, I made two visits to the accident and emergency unit and was admitted once due to fainting episode accompanied by fits.
 
I was referred to a cardiologist who scheduled me for a computed tomography (CT) angiogram on 3 April 2014.
 
The next day, the result was out. I was informed that my major artery had a significant 90-per cent blockage. I was then asked to go for a procedure four days later to insert a stent in my artery. 
  
Despite the negative report, my faith in Jesus never wavered. Two days before my operation, on 6 April, I started serving in church at one of our service venues. There, I found a wonderful team of volunteers, and I got to bless and be blessed by the congregation who attended the service at the venue.
 
At the end of the service, my wife and I got a leader pray for me and by faith we agreed that no stent would be required in my body.  

On the day of the operation, a senior consultant who reviewed my case explained that the fits were due to an insufficient supply of blood to the heart.
 
He told me that he would reconfirm the extent of the blockage in my artery before implementing the stent. During the whole time, I kept declaring that as Jesus is without any blocked arteries, so am I (ref.: 1 John 4:17).

To the consultant’s surprise, he did not find the significant blockage reported earlier. He even conducted the same angiogram procedure a few times to confirm the results, as well as a blood pressure flow test.  

He then discussed my case with another surgeon and both confirmed there was no need to insert the stent. Later, as he spoke to my wife, he said it was a miracle.

Later, the nurse asked me what I did and I told her that I only prayed to Jesus. God is a good God. How mighty is He! Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your sermon on Psalm 91 on 6 April!

Baby Born With Hole In The Heart Healed

The year 2013 was very tough for me and my wife. On the second day of our baby girl's birth, a heart murmur was discovered and she was subsequently diagnosed with two conditions—a hole in her heart and an extra blood vessel between the two major arteries of the heart. 

Her second scan a week later made everything even grimmer. Her hole was categorised as an ostium primum atrial septal defect which the doctors said was a complicated defect. 

A total of four cardiologists told us that this type of hole would not heal on its own as there were no surrounding tissues that could grow and cover up the hole. All agreed that an open heart surgery would be inevitable and they recommended to have it done when our baby was around two years old.

We were devastated when we heard this. However, we still believed in God and prayed that He would heal her. We held on to Isaiah 53 and confessed that our baby was healed by our Lord Jesus’ stripes on the cross. 

A subsequent check-up brought more bad news. The hole in her heart had doubled in size, and the resulting abnormal blood flow was causing the right side of her heart to become bigger than the left. 

On 26 April 2015, my family went to church together at the Marina Bay Sands Ballrooms service venue. Towards the end of the service, Pastor Prince shared two testimonies on healing and prayed for the congregation. We remember clearly that he mentioned that "new cells will grow”. He also encouraged us to meditate on the words: As Jesus is, so are we in this world (ref.: 1 John 4:17). 

It was inspiring and gave us new faith and hope in our Lord. After that, we constantly prayed and reminded ourselves that just as our Lord Jesus Christ is without a hole in His heart, so is our baby. 

About two weeks later, on 15 May, we brought our baby for her regular check-up which was very important as it would determine whether she should undergo the open-heart surgery that year. An initial check using the stethoscope did not give hope as there was still an additional sound. 

The cardiologist then proceeded to do an echocardiogram scan which took longer than usual. Finally when he was done, the cardiologist looked up and said, “The hole has closed." God did it!

Our daughter no longer needed an open-heart surgery. Though we were informed that the extra blood vessel in her heart still remained, it did not impact her health. She could still do normal activities and participate in sports. Praise the Lord for His amazing grace!

Supernaturally Healed Of Eczema

I suffered from contact eczema on my right hand for the past 10 years. I visited doctors, dermatologists, and even underwent a series of tests at the National Skin Centre. However, doctors could not explain why the eczema was only found on my right hand and not on other parts of my body. They said it was an incurable condition which could only be managed by applying moisturisers and steroids. I bought numerous skincare products but to no avail.

The eczema on my hand was bad. It was a vicious cycle that most people suffering from eczema would know: the area would itch, I would scratch, and the scratching would cause bleeding and dry skin, and the area would itch again.

Sometimes, the lesions on the skin would be so painful that I did not even want to wash my hand with water. This condition also made me self–conscious as the pus and blood that oozed out from the lesions on my hand were unsightly.

However, after attending New Creation Church for three years and partaking of the Holy Communion every week, my eczema got better and better. Though it would still flare up sometimes, I continued to believe that by Jesus’ stripes, I am healed.

On 28 January 2014, I was prompted by the Holy Spirit to create a photo album to chronicle God’s healing of my eczema. At times, I didn’t take any pictures because my skin did not seem to improve and I was discouraged. Nevertheless, God is faithful to our prayers EVEN when we are disheartened. His healing is not dependent on our fragile faithfulness but on His unfailing love and grace.

As of 18 July 2016, I have not applied any moisturising or steroid cream and it has been two years since I last used these products. Today, the skin on my right hand looks as good as new, and there is no sign of eczema. A good friend who knew of my condition remarked that the skin on my right hand looks as good as that on my left hand. I believe that Jesus has healed me. Hallelujah!

From Barrenness To Fruitfulness

I was pregnant a month after my wedding in March 2009 but the foetus died before six weeks and I had to go for a dilation and curettage (D&C) procedure to remove the deceased foetus. I became pregnant two more times in April and October 2010 and experienced similar miscarriages. Each time, I had to go through the dreaded D&C procedure.

After three D&C procedures within the span of 18 months, I continued to bleed for five months. The miscarriages were emotionally and physically trying for me and my husband. But we thank God for the godly counsel and enormous support from the pastors in church. They never lost hope and continued to stand in faith with us. My husband and I continued to rest and trust the Lord for restoration, clinging on to God’s promise of fruitfulness in Isaiah 54.

Pregnant for the fourth time in January 2012, I miscarried again. By then, my gynaecologist was at a loss, having exhausted all tests and procedures known to her. God led us to a medical professor specialising in high-risk pregnancy. After a battery of tests, it was discovered that the amount of my natural “killer cells” were exceptionally high. This meant that I was blessed with an exceptionally strong immune system. But these “killer cells” at a higher level also resulted in my past miscarriages.

I was then referred to a rheumatologist with a special interest in reproductive immunology and I was placed on a treatment that gave us a glimmer of hope. Yet our trust was ultimately in the Lord as we understood that science and medicine are limited.

I became pregnant a fifth time in September 2012. But it was found to be an ectopic pregnancy, a life-threatening condition where the embryo grows outside the womb, most often in the fallopian tube. We didn’t know what to do but to trust the Lord that all things would turn out well. Despite treatment, my fallopian tube ruptured and the surgeon had to remove it during an emergency operation to save my life.

The odds of me becoming a mother were now stacked even higher against me, but I knew our God is a God of all possibilities. Surely “He maketh the barren woman to keep house, and to be a joyful mother of children.” (Psalm 113:9a, KJV) Some weeks later, Pastor Prince shared that 2013 was the year of the Key of David, of open doors and open wombs. At the end of the service, Pastor Prince requested those who were believing God for a baby to stand up and receive the blessing, especially those women who have had experienced multiple miscarriages. My husband and I boldly received the childbearing promises proclaimed.

I was led by God to serve in the children’s ministry to take care of young children under the age of two and embrace motherhood by faith. I also served in the Chinese Ministry, and encountered a new believer who had been trying for a baby for several years. In the natural, I should have been disqualified to pray for her. But I remembered Pastor Prince’s sermon Healing Flows When Grace Is Exalted, where by faith, Abraham prayed for Abimelech to bear children despite Abraham being childless. I knew that God was setting me up for a big breakthrough, so I just boldly prayed for the new believer to conceive.

In July 2013, I conceived naturally for the sixth time in four years. At week six, I experienced spotting. Fear began to creep into my heart and bad thoughts of the previous miscarriages began to saturate my mind. I was so distressed and suicide thoughts kept playing in my mind. I couldn’t sleep, had panic attacks and would wake up more than 10 times every night, crying and walking around the bedroom.

Pastor Christina Wee and two sisters in church prayed for me and encouraged me to continue to walk by faith and exercise my authority in Christ. Pastor Christina also began to sing worship songs and gradually, the depression lifted and I got better.

Every day, I confessed that I would not miscarry. I also confessed Luke 2:40 over my baby: “And the Child grew and became strong in spirit, filled with wisdom; and the grace of God was upon him.”

At week 24 of my pregnancy, I experienced excruciating pain at the sides of my stomach, and the doctors were convinced that I would deliver the baby prematurely. I rejected the bad report and kept on confessing that I would carry the baby to full term. Finally, at week 38, my son was born healthy and strong. The Word of God is so alive that I witnessed Luke 2:40 being manifested in his life. My son had no allergies or jaundice at birth and he never got unwell after each vaccination. He rolled over for the first time when he was three months and 22 days old. At four months old, he weighed over 8 kg and according to the clinical chart, he was in the 97 percentile for his height and weight!

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for preaching the gospel, helping us to grow in faith as we hear the preaching of the Word. Your ministry has indeed transformed our lives radically!

Partial Deafness In Left Ear Gone!

I had been partially deaf in my left ear for 10 to 11 years, and could not hear clearly.

I had gone for a check-up before, but the report found nothing wrong with my hearing. I prayed for healing many times but nothing happened.

On Sunday, 23 September 2018, I was in church and as I was saturating myself in Abba God’s love during a time of ministry, a thought passed through my mind—“If daddy God loves you so much, then why is your symptom not called out?”

Even before I could dwell on that thought, Pastor Prince mentioned my condition. Immediately, I stood up knowing that it must be Abba God showing me His divine love.

Now, I am totally healed and restored by more than 120 per cent!

Thank You, Abba!

Left Knee Pain Gone Instantly

In 2017, I had been having pain in my left knee for about three months. It would cause me pain and discomfort, especially when I walked up or down the stairs.

One morning, I was in the car with my husband, and I played Pastor Prince’s sermon CD, and heard about how people were healed at the services.  

Then, I said aloud, “Lord, I want to be healed of this discomfort and pain in my left knee. Please have Pastor Prince pray for my left knee.”

Immediately, my husband touched my hand and said, “Sure, yeah,” even though he may not have believed.  

That was on Wednesday, 16 August 2017. Lo and behold, that Sunday, Pastor Prince preached a long and intense sermon, and no one would have thought that he would stop in the middle of his message. But he did.

Then, he said that he wanted to pray for people who had pain in their legs. Many stood up, and I stood up too. In my mind, I kept thinking that if Pastor Prince were to talk to me later, I would correct him as it was my left knee that was hurting and not my leg.

Suddenly, Pastor Prince turned and asked me if I was having a knee condition, and he used his hand to touch his left knee. I went on to relate to Pastor Prince what I had uttered in the car, and he exclaimed that I was the reason God interrupted his message.

Then, when Pastor Prince prayed, I could feel a strong sensation around my waist and down to my left knee. My knee was healed! All glory to God!

It has been a year and I still feel so good. September 2018 also marked my one year of serving as an usher in church. I am literally running in and out of the auditorium to usher people to their seats. There is no more pain in my left knee.

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your prayer. Thank You, Jesus Christ, my healer and Saviour!

Depressed No More

I suffered from severe depression in 2016 and thought of ending my life. I was on medication and went for counselling. However, I struggled with the medication and stopped taking it. I went for specialised sessions with a psychologist which made my condition worse.

At that time, I would find myself huddling in my bedroom and finding security in talking to someone on the phone. I would also find some comfort just by lying flat on my back under the coffee table or in my bedroom. It was the most horrible experience I have ever had.

Finally, I was admitted into a psychiatric ward. During that time, my care group leaders visited me and declared God’s peace and presence in my life. Despite my situation, they saw hope because Jesus is powerful and He would surely turn my situation around.  

Things did turn around and in 2017, The Year Of Jubilee, I was completely restored.

Now, I am 120 per cent better than before and have learnt to let go and let God do the work instead. I am also actively serving in church, and the Lord has blessed me with a harmonious family and a successful home business. The gospel of grace has changed my life and I am growing from strength to strength because of Abba Father’s grace and love for me.

No More Need For Long-Term Medication

In August 2018, my mum was hospitalised for four days. During this time, she was diagnosed with pernicious anaemia, a condition where the body cannot make enough red blood cells because it lacks vitamin B12.

While the condition is not life threatening if kept under control, my mum had to be on long-term medication. And if oral medication did not work, she might need to have regular injections.

Since then, she started taking vitamin B12 tablets and I started praying with her.

On 8 September, my mum went for another blood test to check if the oral medication worked on her. On 15 September, we went to get the blood test result. Much to our joy and amazement, her vitamin B12 level was more than sufficient and the doctor said that there was no need for her to be on long-term medication at all! Praise God!

I am truly grateful to Him who makes all things possible. The day before the result, I visited a care group for the first time, and heard healing testimonies from two care group members. Now, God has graciously given me a first-hand experience of His awesomeness! All glory to Jesus!

God Restored To Me A Loving Husband

After we got married, my husband became abusive. He would always accuse me of being unfaithful and would often beat me up. I used to go to work with bruises and a black eye. I was hospitalised a few times because he broke my nose or toe, and I lost a child from the beatings.

Even though we love each other very much, things just went from bad to worse. I did not know why he behaved in that manner until he was diagnosed with schizophrenia, a brain disorder that made him hallucinate and become highly suspicious of others.

By that time, we had accepted Jesus Christ as our Lord and Saviour, and we were going to church every Sunday. The doctor put my husband on medication to numb his brain but he did not like it because it made him slow. He stopped his medication and I had to live with his abusive behaviour.

Then, we started attending New Creation Church and found the teachings very uplifting. After listening to Pastor Prince’s sermons week after week, I realised that my husband gradually became less abusive. 

Today, my husband is free from the symptoms of schizophrenia. Jesus has restored to me the man I fell in love with. My husband is now very, very loving and gentle to me. 

Against all odds, Pastor Prince’s sermons on God’s everlasting grace that lifts up Jesus in our lives have restored our marriage. We have been married for 28 years, and are still going strong. God has also blessed our six children who are excelling in their studies, and we are financially blessed too.

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your message of grace.

Couple Beats Lupus And Cancer, And Now Has A Miracle Baby

I have been working as a scriptwriter at a television network for 10 years.

In 2010, I went overseas for filming and was exposed to the sun for long hours. As a result, I became photosensitive and rashes started to appear on my face. When I returned to Singapore, I went for a check-up and was diagnosed with lupus, a condition where the immune system attacks the organs and causes the joints to swell. In my case, I was attacked in my skin. At that time, I would often feel feverish and my skin would swell, hurt and itch. My joints were also giving me so much pain that I could hardly bend my fingers.

As a result, I had to take steroids and it brought along many side effects. One of them included the thinning of my skin. Once, my skin peeled off after I tried opening a new jar of peanut butter. I was dumbfounded and realised that I had to be extra careful even while performing a simple task.

In addition, the rashes also left many open wounds on my body. I was in constant pain and suffered from an uncontrollable itch. Not only was I unable to sleep at night, I also lost all my confidence. Whenever I was out in public, people would avoid or despise me, for fear that my skin condition was contagious.

My joint problems also affected my work and I had difficulties typing out scripts. I was overwhelmed by worries and fears, and even fell into depression. I did not want to step out of the house and when I was alone, I would cry for no reason.

In my lowest moments, I would feel angry and helpless. I would cry, pray and question God’s presence in my situation.

Thankfully, my friends and family were there for me and God never left me. I also held fast to His promise in 2 Corinthians 12:9, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness."

During this time, I would have to do a detailed check-up regularly to ensure that my other organs were not under attack. According to the doctor, I had to be on steroids forever as lupus is incurable. It was as though I had been given a life sentence.

However, five years ago, the doctor said that my condition had stabilised and there were no more signs of lupus in my body. Hence, I was taken off steroids.

In 2015, I married my boyfriend, Kingsley. A year before we got married, he found out that he had testicular cancer. Four months before our wedding, he underwent surgery to remove the growing tumour, and a strong round of chemotherapy to prevent the cancer cells from spreading.

At that time, he had just accepted Christ as his Saviour and there were many things which he could not understand. His emotions were unstable, and he was stressed out. Nonetheless, he would encourage himself with Isaiah 53:5, that “by His stripes we are healed”.

During that time, the doctor could not determine the stage of his cancer. His tumour was malignant and 5 cm large and logically, the cancer cells should have spread but they did not. Hence, the doctor classified his cancer as Stage 1. We thank God for preserving him.

When the oncologist knew that we were about to get married, he encouraged Kingsley to freeze his sperms as many cancer patients have difficulty conceiving. He even said that because of the chemotherapy, Kingsley would not be able to have children in the next couple of years.

But one month after we got married, a miracle happened—I conceived! Initially, we could not believe it and visited a family doctor for further tests. According to the doctor, being a lupus patient, it was difficult for me to get pregnant. Furthermore, Kingsley had just recovered from testicular cancer treatment with chemotherapy. Yet, we conceived. It was indeed a miracle! Even Kingsley’s oncologist was very surprised. Today, our son is almost three years old and he is healthy and lively.

Mother’s Speedy Recovery From Mild Stroke

On 28 March 2018, my mother did not feel well. She had no strength to hold an umbrella with her left hand, and her voice had changed.

We suspected that she had had a stroke and called for an ambulance. When we reached the hospital, the doctor attended to my mum immediately. We were later told that she had suffered a mild stroke and there was a tiny blood clot at the back of her brain.

That afternoon, my mum was brought to the high dependency ward to recuperate. By then, she was back to her normal self. Her strength and voice were restored. The next day, she was transferred to the normal ward.

According to the doctor, she had completely recovered. Later, my mum told me that when she heard us saying that she might have had a stroke, she quickly called out to Jesus for help. She also kept asking Jesus to heal her while we were sending her to the hospital.

We strongly believe that our Lord had protected her from harm. In fact, every day, she listens to Pastor Mark Ng’s sermons before she sleeps. She also talks to Jesus daily since the day she accepted Christ. These days, she also boldly shares about Jesus with her friends.

Thank You, Lord, for always being with us, and thank you, Pastor Prince, for your teaching on Christ that has benefitted us.

Skin Looking Better Than Before

Since about six years back, I’ve had minor eczema around my lips that would turn oozy and blistery. But it could be quickly treated with medication. 

Then, in June 2016, I had an outbreak of eczema all over my mouth, chin and eyes, and it slowly spread to my neck. I looked at every form of help I could find — dermatologists to traditional Chinese medicine and even online solutions. 

I used topical steroids to treat my skin when the eczema flared up, but it would come back with a vengeance when I stopped applying the medication. I was so tired physically, mentally and emotionally.

The eczema also caused stress in my relationship with my husband, and it hurt whenever I interacted with my 18-month-old child. 

Many times, I would break down due to the pain and ugliness of my skin. I felt that I had done everything I could, from applying medication to changing skincare products and my diet, yet nothing worked! 

In December 2016, a friend of mine who has been attending New Creation Church told me to pray and claim my healing. While I prayed, my condition still flared up. Nonetheless, she encouraged me to press on and sent me Pastor Prince’s sermons to listen to. 

I started listening to Pastor Prince's message on God’s 120 per cent restoration, and claimed that God would heal me by Chinese New Year in 2018 and my skin would look 120 per cent better than before when I go for my family trip to Japan in April 2018. 

Praise be to God, by Chinese New Year, my skin was restored and it was better than before. Whenever people ask me what I had done, I would say I prayed! As what Pastor Prince has preached, when we work, God rests but when we rest, God works.

Baby’s Heart Condition Healed

In July 2017, I went into labour. When my husband and I arrived at the hospital at 5am, we were expecting a normal delivery as there had not been any complications throughout the pregnancy. 

However, we were soon informed by the nurses that they could not detect our daughter’s heartbeat. They then decided to call a doctor into the delivery suite. 

As it was early in the morning, most of the doctors were not in the hospital. But thankfully, one of the doctors, who happened to work with our gynaecologist, had just conducted a Caesarean delivery and decided stay in the hospital to catch a few winks instead of heading home before he made his rounds at 8am. We believe it was God’s arrangement for the doctor to be in the hospital. By 6am, I was wheeled into the operating theatre for an emergency Caesarean delivery.

After my baby girl was born, she was immediately wheeled into the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) where she was put under observation. She was also put through a series of tests to determine the cause of her low heart rate. Her heart rate averaged between 50 and 80 beats per minute, while the average infant heart rate is between 130 and 150 beats per minute. 

This was a trying time for us first-time parents as we prayed and cried together, trusting the Lord to heal our baby girl. We broke bread together often over our daughter, reminding ourselves of God’s promises. We read the books Grace Promises for Moms and Grace Promises for Dads, the Mother’s and Father’s Day gifts from church that year. Each day’s reading was the perfect encouragement for our situation. We also found much encouragement from care group members who visited and prayed for us. 

On day three, the cardiologist met us to discuss our daughter’s condition. She was diagnosed with sinus bradycardia where there were one or two heart blockages. 

We were given a few options to manage her condition. One, keep our daughter in the private hospital’s NICU indefinitely, but the cost of stay per night was extremely hefty. As young parents, we had only managed to save enough for a normal delivery, and we could not afford an extended stay in the NICU. Two, we could pick up cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and bring my daughter home or three, send our daughter for a surgery where they would insert a pacemaker into her heart. 

None of the options looked favourable to us. but God gave us grace to trust Him and believe Jesus to provide for us and give our daughter a complete healing of her heart. 

Later, our cardiologist referred us to a renowned paediatric cardiothoracic surgeon in Singapore who also practises in a public hospital. We met him to discuss our options and the possibility of transferring our daughter to a public hospital. However, we were told that the NICU there was chock-a-block full and it had been so for months. The surgeon then went over the details of a pacemaker surgery and told us he would visit our daughter the following morning. 

On the morning of day four, while visiting our daughter, the surgeon looked at my husband and told us that there was a fourth option. He proceeded to make a call and arranged for an external transfer into the only room reserved for internal transfers in the NICU at the public hospital. 

Praise the Lord for His provision! Our daughter was transferred to the public hospital that very evening and the hospital costs went down drastically. 

In the following days, all we had left to do was to pray and wait, and to rest in Jesus and trust in Him for the complete healing of our daughter. We were especially touched by the love received from our church family. 

Our care group prayed round the clock for our daughter and would type out their declarations of healing and wholeness in our common chat group. Although we were fairly new to the church, the church office arranged for a “get-well” hamper to be sent to our daughter. They also called us a few times to pray with us over the phone and get updates on our daughter’s condition. We were impressed that such a large church would have such a personal touch. 

That Sunday, Pastor Louis Teng and a leader from church visited us in the hospital. We partook of the Holy Communion together and Pastor Louis ministered in worship over our daughter. He declared that our child would be healed of her heart condition, and that he would see her in church complete and whole.

Three days later, on Wednesday night of her second week, our daughter’s heart rate returned to normal. As far as we know, no surgery was performed on her and no medication was given to her except oxygen. 

The hands of Jehovah Rapha (which means the Lord who heals) had touched and removed the blockage in our baby girl’s heart! Our God is faithful to hear and answer our prayers. He is also faithful to heal and provide. Praise the Lord for His grace! To God be all the glory!

No More Hyperthyroidism

In March 2017, I was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism, an autoimmune condition that results in an overproduction of hormones in the thyroid glands. As the thyroid hormones target many parts of the body, I experienced a myriad of symptoms like hand tremours, increased metabolism and heart rate, as well as lactose and heat intolerance.

When I was first diagnosed with the condition, my thyroid level was way beyond the normal range. I was told that this condition had no cure, and I had to take medicine for the rest of my life to suppress the production of thyroid hormones.

When I heard that, I was crushed and became very afraid of the side effect of taking the medication for life. However, I was blessed with very good kingdom friends who stood in faith with me throughout this journey.

They would pray for me and remind me of how good God is. My husband would also declare good over me and together, we would partake of the Holy Communion as often as we could.

I was also encouraged to ask the Lord for accelerated healing, new thyroid glands and blessings over my medicine so that they would be more effective.  

During that period in church, Pastor Prince prayed for many who were sick but my condition was never called out. Yet, there was a conviction within me that I am healed. Amazingly, from May 2017, I stopped experiencing symptoms of hyperthyroidism.

However, other symptoms started to surface. I was discouraged and fearful as I thought that I was not healed or was suffering from yet another condition.

This time round, I became constantly lethargic and experienced excruciating cramps whenever I exerted a muscle. I also started to gain weight and this made me very conscious of my diet and activity level.

I began to watch what I eat very closely and was determined to exercise more vigorously. I planned to eat very little every day, and exercise at least three times a week. Then one day, I felt so exhausted that I couldn’t take it anymore. I was supposed to wake up at 6am for a jog, something which I had been doing for weeks, but I was so tired that I just could not get up.

So, in the midst of my sleepiness, I cried out to the Lord and told Him and I could not handle this anymore. That was a turning point for me.

Though I was not instantly healed, I began to experience less muscle cramps and my weight gradually reduced.

In July 2017, my blood test showed that my condition had gone from hyperthyroidism to hypothyroidism. This meant that my thyroid glands had become overly suppressed and were not producing sufficient hormones!

However, the doctor did not want to take me off medication as she thought that my hyperthyroidism might return. So she reduced my dosage of medicine, but I felt led to cut it down further by half.

I also continued to trust the Lord for complete healing knowing that He was scourged so that I might be whole.

Then, at the start of 2018, I stopped taking the medicine completely. All the symptoms were gone and my weight was back to normal.

In April 2018, I decided to take a blood test to see how my thyroid glands had been. The results showed that all the parameters were normal!

Hallelujah! It is indeed the Lord who did all the work. Now, I am enjoying the abundant life that my Lord promised. I can eat good food without being conscious of my weight. Now, I dance because I can, not because I have to.

Thank You, Lord Jesus!

Healed Inside Out

On Sunday, 3 June 2018, I attended the service with pain in my lower back and right knee — a condition that I had experienced since the birth of my third child. I was also feeling troubled due to some stress I had experienced the week before. When the service began, I asked the Lord to minister to me through His Word and lighten my heavy heart. 

That day, Pastor Prince preached on being stress-free and worry-free. The Word was indeed for me as I had been racing with demands and deadlines. The moment Pastor Prince mentioned about living life supply-oriented and not demand-oriented, my burden was immediately lifted. 

During a time of ministering at the end of the sermon, Pastor Prince said that someone’s back was being healed. Then, he pointed to the lower part of his back — which was exactly where I was feeling the pain. 

At that point, I wondered if God was healing me. So I moved my back and found that the pain was no longer there! 

Then, Pastor Prince went on to say that God was healing someone of a right knee pain. He also added that person had injured his or her knee some time back, and the pain had only returned recently. 

When I heard that, I was overwhelmed by the Lord’s love as I had injured my right knee before I got married, and the pain returned after I gave birth to my third child about a year ago. 

So I kept moving and shaking my right leg, and discovered that the pain was really gone! I couldn’t believe it! 

I am so grateful to Jesus for healing my heart and my body. I feel so blessed to be in this ministry, with a very anointed pastor!

Multiple Conditions Gone

In March 2018, I hurt my left shoulder while carrying some weights. Since then, my shoulder would hurt whenever I removed my shirt. 

On top of that, I developed a severe headache and could not bend my head forward or cough. I also suffered from a pain in my upper back which lasted the entire day. 

But on Wednesday, 23 May 2018, I went to church for Encounter Night. To my amazement, Pastor Prince called out all the conditions that I was suffering from during the service. 

When I checked myself, I realised that the headache was gone. I had no clue when that happened, but I knew it was still there when I was queueing to enter the service venue. I guess it might have left during praise and worship just as Pastor Prince had said. 

In addition, my left shoulder pain and upper backache were also gone. Now, I am able to remove my shirt with ease. 

Thank You, Lord Jesus for loving a person like me. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for showing us Jesus and His grace.

Pain In Right Arm Gone

For the past few months, I had been praying for God to heal me of a pain in my right arm. I would also meditate on His promise that He would restore my health and heal my wounds as written in Jeremiah 30:17. 

But the pain persisted. I had wanted to see a doctor but changed my mind whenever the pain became more bearable.  

However, as time went by, the pain worsened. At times, it even disrupted my sleep. Nonetheless, I stood my ground and refused to let go of the Lord's healing promises. 

On Sunday, 27 May 2018, Pastor Prince said that there was someone in the congregation who was suffering from a pain in the right arm. He even pointed to his own arm to indicate the area where God was healing. Amazingly, that was exactly where I was feeling the pain. 

Since then, I have not experienced the pain at all. Hallelujah! All praise and glory be to God.

God Made Me A Happy Mother

I accepted Christ in my teens but stopped going to church for close to 20 years. 

After I got married, my husband and I started trying for a baby as we always wanted kids. 

In 2015, I conceived naturally, but it was not a viable pregnancy. In addition, a large fibroid of around 10cm was discovered and my gynaecologist suggested for me to have it removed and expect a downtime of six to seven months. 

As I was advancing in age, I tried to conceive naturally again but when that did not happen, we turned to in-vitro fertilisation (IVF). The IVF specialist advised me to remove the fibroid in order to increase my chances of getting pregnant. I reluctantly agreed and went for the surgery in May 2016. 

Months later, my husband’s cousin Ivy invited me to New Creation Church, and in October 2016, I attended the church for the first time. On that day, there was a video testimony of a couple who conceived and were blessed with two children even though the husband was told that he could never father a child. I was so touched that I cried. That was also my first time hearing the gospel of grace. 

Ivy also gave me a book on supernatural childbirth, and I read it over and over again. I also started claiming the promises from God's Word that I am a fruitful vine and made Psalm 128:3 my personal verse. 

I also started listening to sermons on fruitfulness and how we can live the abundant life because Jesus Christ has taken our place on the cross. 

The following month, I went for the scheduled IVF but it turned out to be a futile attempt. My husband was disappointed and I was devastated. 

I was in tears for days and finally, I came to an end of myself. I told God that I needed a miracle and only He could give me that. This set me free from my struggles and self-efforts and I started to look to Him as my provider and healer. 

I started to believe Him for the healing of my womb and for my reproductive organs to be fruitful, and ceased from my self-efforts, such as using ovulation kits, to get pregnant. 

In January 2017, I found out that I was pregnant! Though I was fearful, I kept claiming God's Word in Exodus 23:26 that no one shall miscarry or be barren. I also prayed for my baby that he would have a strong heart, and grow up healthy and happy. 

Thought I was over 35, my pregnancy was very smooth. Only God could make this possible! 

Today, I am a joyful mother of an eight-month-old baby. All praise and thanks to the Lord who is faithful!

Premature Son Survived After Heart Surgery

In 2016, after seven years of marriage, my wife finally became pregnant with our first child. We enjoyed this journey of pregnancy just like any other parents-to-be.

But around 27 weeks into the pregnancy, my wife’s water bag burst. Fearful thoughts of our baby’s survival flooded our minds. We rushed to the hospital praying in tongues all the while as we didn’t know how else to pray.

At the hospital, my wife was given an injection to stimulate the growth of our baby’s lungs while the gynaecologist prepared for an emergency caesarean-section birth.

We had to stay in the hospital for two nights, and we kept listening and singing praise and worship songs even as we felt fearful. We kept our eyes on Jesus knowing He was the only one who could save our baby.

We sought prayers from our serving teams and we believed that these prayers protected Lucas as we went through the challenges that lay ahead of us.

On 11 September 2016, baby Lucas was prematurely born, weighing only 1.05 kg. Before we could take a picture with him, he was whisked off to the neonatal intensive care unit, where he stayed for two months.

He survived on an oxygen tube and had to be fed intravenously using a feeding tube. Though he was small and premature, he was alert and active, and kicked a lot.

During this period, I had a career change which enabled me to work from home. This gave me the flexibility to deliver breast milk to Lucas at any time, and I also got to see him during the visiting hours. I even got an increment for this new role which was totally unexpected. How perfect God’s timing was!

After three weeks, we were told that Lucas had to undergo a heart surgery to clamp one of the valves that wouldn’t close. This was heartbreaking for us and the fear that the surgery would fail was real.

But we decided to go ahead with it and trusted that if God had brought us this far, He would see us through.

This was the turning point of his recovery. Lucas completed the surgery without complications. He also gained weight very quickly and was taken off the oxygen tube.

By the end of two months, he was ready to go home. Today, he’s strong, cheerful and feeding well.

We are so thankful to Jesus — because He died, Lucas can live today. We are also grateful for the people God had placed in our paths and the support from our serving teams. When we serve God, He serves us back!

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for always pointing us to Jesus! We are so blessed to be in this house of God.

Delivered From Depressive Thoughts, Sleepless Nights And Headaches

I was going through a tough time in my personal life and career. During this season, I battled with depressive thoughts which I did not share with any of my friends from church.

These thoughts caused me to suffer from sleepless nights for weeks. It became so bad that I would fall asleep only at six to seven in the morning, and was surviving on four hours of sleep a day.

Then, just one week before Encounter Night in January 2018, I experienced an extremely bad headache which I had never had before. It was so bad that I had to take six to eight pills to relieve the pain. With that headache, it was even tougher for me to fall asleep.

During Encounter Night, I wasn't expecting my condition to be called out. But I simply trusted God to heal and guide me through.

At the service, Pastor Prince flowed in the Spirit. Then, he asked two pastors to call out conditions that the people were suffering from. One of them shared that there was a person suffering from depressive thoughts. At that point, I knew that the Lord was reaching out to me but I was too embarrassed to stand up.  

Then, the second pastor shared that someone was going through a difficult time in his career and was suffering from sleepless nights. This was when I realised that both pastors were highlighting my conditions.

This time round, I decided to stand and receive my portion. Immediately, one of the pastors came to pray for me.  

But it did not stop there. Shortly after, Pastor Prince said that someone was suffering from an extremely bad headache, and I knew that the Lord was pointing out my condition again!

By then, my headache had become so bad that I decided to receive my portion seated. As Pastor Prince prayed over the people, I felt a warm sensation on my head and the pain started to fade away.  

Right after the service, all my depressive thoughts and headache were gone. Since then, I was also able to sleep at 10.45pm at night and wake up at 8am or 9am!

Praise the Lord and all the glory goes to Jesus!

Free From Gastric Pain

I had been suffering from mild stomach gastric pain since 2014. From mid-2017, I experienced gastric pain frequently.

I would see a doctor and get gastric medicine. After taking the pills, I would be relieved of the pain but if I were to skip my meals, eat spicy food or eat late, the pain would return.

There were two occasions when I excreted dark red stools. It was scary.

Most of the doctors I visited advised me to go for an endoscopy but I was reluctant to do so. Finally, I decided to go for the scope to find out if my stomach had any ulcer infections.

On 7 March 2018, I went to the polyclinic to get a referral letter for an endoscopy. A few days later, I received a call from the hospital informing me that my endoscopy would be done on 27 March 2018.

Having read and listened to Pastor Prince’s materials on the Holy Communion, I have come to believe that the Holy Communion is the medicine that is above all medicines. I also believed that it was able to cure every sickness because it represented the finished work of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Hence, I started to partake of the Holy Communion up to three times a day. Whenever the pain came, I would partake of the Holy Communion. I would also confess the healing promises of our God from Isaiah 53:4–5 and Jeremiah 30:17. I believed that I was already healed from gastric pain even before I went for the endoscopy.

On 27 March 2018, the endoscopy went well and the doctor told me that my stomach was free from infection, damage and ulcers. Praise the name of Jesus! The best part is, since 7 March 2018, I have experienced no pain in my stomach. I believe that the pain and other symptoms will never return. All glory, honour and praise be to Jesus!

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your wonderful teachings that reveal the beauty of our Lord Jesus Christ. God bless you and your family abundantly.

Daughter’s Menses Came

For six months, my 18-year-old daughter did not have her menses. Towards the end of April 2018, she visited a physician who told her that she would prescribe a week’s supply of medicine to strengthen her body. However, if her period was still delayed, she would need to see a doctor as it could be dangerous for her given her age.

A week later, on 2 May, my daughter’s condition remained the same so she went to see the doctor as recommended. Though I was worried, I tried to remain calm. On our way home, I kept telling my daughter to pray to Jesus because only He could save her.

I also prayed to God a couple of times and at a sharing session by Pastor Edwin Lim on 4 May, I started praying in tongues.

Then, I heard from my daughter that her menses came! God answered my prayer! Praise the Lord for this miracle.

Pain In Elbow Gone

My husband and I attended our first Encounter Night in January 2018. When Pastor Prince started to flow in the Spirit, I got a little impatient as I thought that I was not attending the service to receive healing. 

However, when Pastor Prince began praying for the sick, I decided to pay attention to what was happening.

Then, it hit me that I should listen out for prayers on elbow pain as I had been suffering from this condition for about two to three years. Whenever I carried or lifted heavy items, my right elbow would hurt.

Even though Pastor Prince did not call out my condition, I remained in my seat and joined in to pray for healing over other conditions that were called out. In fact, I forgot about it completely and was not even expecting to be healed.

But since that night, the pain in my elbow was gone. It was truly God’s grace and unmerited favour. Praise be to our God who listens to our prayers!

Healed Of Chronic Backache

I had been having backache in the lower part of my back for several months. At times, the pain was so unbearable that it was difficult for me to stand up after sitting down for a while or even get out of bed.

Not knowing why the pain persisted, I started to fear. Since Pastor Prince had been calling out God‘s healing in church over a few Sundays, I had been claiming His healing for my back. I also continued to listen to Pastor Prince‘s sermons everywhere I went — at times through the night.

I shared my condition with my fellow leaders in DARE (youth group for secondary school youths) and also a group of youths who had been praying for me every week. I felt so loved by them and Daddy God.

On 12 April 2017, I decided to see a doctor because the pain was unbearable and I would be heading to Israel the week after.

As I was walking to the clinic, I felt a warm sensation on my back. Immediately, I was reminded that Pastor Prince often said that this could mean that God‘s healing power was at work. So I touched my back and said, “Amen.” When I arrived at the clinic, I could still feel the pain when I sat down and got up from the chair. After collecting my medication, I went home, took the medication and rested.

The next morning, I woke up and realised that the pain has gone. As I got ready for work, I continued to look for the pain to check that it was really gone. After a few hours of searching, I gave up and the pain did not return even after four days. Praise Jesus! Thank you, Pastor Prince, for the grace message, and for ministering God‘s healing during the services.

Healed Of Chest Pain, Lower Back And Knee Conditions

I got to know about New Creation Church after watching a snippet of Pastor Joseph Prince‘s sermon on Facebook. I found his sermon very empowering and full of God‘s grace.

Since then, I would attend service in New Creation Church almost every Sunday. On 19 March 2017, I attended the third service at The Star Performing Arts Centre. During the service, Pastor Prince shared about God‘s healing. At that time, I had been experiencing aches in my lower back and knee for the past two weeks. Three days earlier, I had felt a pain in my left chest.

Halfway through the sermon that Sunday, Pastor Prince prayed for healing for those with lower back and knee conditions. I stood up quickly. Pastor Prince then added that God wants to heal those with chest pain too. I thought it was amazing to have all my three conditions called out.

I did not get healed immediately. About one to two days later, my lower back and knee pain left me. However, I could still feel the pain in my chest. Each day when I was alone at my workstation and in the washroom, I would pray and ask God for healing.

After a few days, I was totally healed. I thank God for His promise and healing. Amen.

Spots In Lungs Gone!

On 4 March 2017, I attended the second service at Causeway Point. There were testimonies being read out about people in the congregation who were healed by the Lord after responding to Pastor Prince's call for healing during the previous week‘s services.

I regretted not attending service that day because I needed God's healing too. After the sharing of the testimonies, Pastor Prince proceeded with his sermon. I tried to focus on the sermon while my fingers were busy on my phone.

Then I decided to stop playing on my phone and look at the venue‘s screen. At that very moment, Pastor Prince started to call out different ailments. I heard him mention ear and jaw conditions, and wished that he would call out my ailment too. The next thing I know, Pastor Prince, who was led by the Lord, said that someone had just found dark spots in their lungs. I wanted to shout out that was me!

I had been suffering from various ailments since December 2016 — fever, conjunctivitis, bronchitis and a cough that lasted more than two months. My doctor requested that I take an X-ray and on 8 February 2017, the result indicated that I could have bronchiectasis (a condition where the bronchial tubes of the lungs are permanently damaged). I was then referred to a lung specialist.

I was scheduled to see the lung specialist for a second appointment on 15 March 2017. After Pastor Prince and the church prayed over my condition, I had no doubt that God‘s grace and mercy was on me and that my next result would be normal.

The result from my second X-ray confirmed that my lungs were normal. The dark spots had disappeared! Praise the Lord! He is such a good God even when I wasn't deserving. I praise Him for showing me His unmerited favour time and again.

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for being a faithful servant of God and church, for your prayers!

Pain In Neck And Shoulder Gone After Listening To Sermon

On Tuesday, 14 March 2017, I had taken a day off from work to spend the afternoon at a swimming complex with my family.

After I took the water slide a few times with my children, I felt pain on the left side of my neck and shoulder blade. I could not turn my neck or sit comfortably because of the pain.

That night, my wife and I prayed over my condition. She also massaged my neck and my back to ease the discomfort.

When I returned to work on Wednesday, the pain was still there. I was very frustrated because I had planned to go to a playground with my family that evening.

I started to work and listen to Pastor Prince‘s sermon titled Be Led By The Spirit Into Every Blessing. In the sermon, Pastor Prince was prompted to address people in the congregation with neck and left shoulder pains. He encouraged those who had pains to stand and receive their healing. What a timely sermon! I really believed that I would have my instant healing right where I was, and I stood up to receive it. After the prayer, the pain subsided by about 80 per cent. I also tried turning my neck from side to side.

Though there was still a little discomfort especially when I tried to maintain my posture, I was already very happy with the great improvement. I listened to the same sermon on and off as I didn't stay at my workstation throughout the day.

It was a very busy day and it went by so fast. I met up with my family at around 7 pm after my workday had ended. It was only then that I realised that the pain was completely gone.

Thank You, Jesus! I was able to enjoy my time bouncing around with my kids at the playground. Thank you, New Creation Church and Pastor Prince, for preaching the gospel. God bless you richly to be a greater blessing. To God be all the praise, honour and glory!

Cyst On Daughter’s Foot Gone!

In 2015, we found a small cyst on our daughter's left foot. It was insignificant so we just left it as it was and prayed for healing.

However, at the end of 2016, the cyst grew bigger and started to bring discomfort to my daughter. Hence, we decided to consult a doctor. After doing a scan and examining the growth, the doctor said that the cyst was harmless. He also added that it could only be removed by surgery and left the decision to us.

We talked to our daughter and decided to believe, declare and trust God for healing and that it would be removed painlessly.

However, nothing happened until Pastor Prince started to flow in the healing anointing during the recent services. We started to flow with what the Lord was doing, believing that it was time for our daughter to receive her healing in this area. We brought back our family's weekly praise and worship sessions, listened to sermons, prayed and partook of the Holy Communion together.

About a month ago, my daughter‘s cyst started to get smaller and then by 20 April 2017, it was totally gone! Praise the Lord!

We are so thankful that not only did the healing took place, but we also continued with our weekly family sessions. We simply love these sessions and enjoyed the Lord‘s presence in our midst. Thank You, Jesus!

Ankle Pain Gone

Over the years, I had sustained multiple sprains in my ankle due to extreme sports. In February 2017, I suffered an injury in my right ankle, leaving it swollen and too painful to even move.

According to the doctor, I had snapped a few ligaments that were supporting my ankle. If I were to exert pressure on the ankle through extended walking, it would be inflamed.

As my work requires me to walk and stand on my feet for long hours, I was unable to give the ankle sufficient rest to heal properly. My colleagues were able to detect a slight limp to my gait and were quite concerned for me.

I was upset and did not know how to face the reality of not being able to be actively involved in sports again. It came to a point where I decided to accept the fact that I would probably be unable to maintain the active lifestyle that I once had.

On 15 April 2017, I was reading a devotion by Pastor Prince, and was inspired to actively declare that “by His stripes, I am healed” (ref.: Isaiah 53:5). I started declaring it to myself while placing my hand over the ankle. Though the healing wasn’t immediate and the pain was still there, my steps became lighter as I walked about that night.

Then on Resurrection Sunday, 16 April 2017, we watched a video playback of a sister who received healing for her finger the previous Sunday. Throughout the playback, I kept repeating the words “by His stripes, I am healed” in my mind and believed that God would heal my ankle.

During the service, I noticed that the burning sensation in my ankle gradually subsided.

At the end of the service, my suspicions were confirmed when I started to walk out of the church. The pain was gone!

Words cannot describe how grateful I am, especially now that I am able to rotate and apply pressure on my ankle once again.

I am so thankful to the Lord for His healing and to Pastor Prince for sharing the gospel of grace.

Praise the Lord!

Viral Fever Broke Within A Day

I started to develop a fever after returning from a work trip in Jakarta, Indonesia. At first, I thought I had eaten too much deep fried crackers, but then it turned out that all my colleagues were down with the same viral infection.

On Resurrection Sunday, 16 April 2017, I woke up with a really bad sore throat and body ache. Immediately, I knew a fever was brewing. But I decided to brush it aside and headed down to the service venue at GV Grand (Great World City), hoping that Pastor Prince would go into a time of ministering for the sick again. However, there was no specific call during that service.

After the service, my head started pounding and I could feel my body heating up. I headed home, took my temperature and accepted the fact that I was down with a fever, just like all my colleagues were.

After waking up from a short nap, something prompted me to go listen to Pastor Prince‘s CD, A Touch Of His Presence. I tried to search for the album online but did not find it. Instead, I clicked on a random sermon and let it play in the background while I returned to sleep.

In that sermon, Pastor Prince preached about how there were times he felt tired but he would reject those thoughts because he refused to accept them as his portions. He encouraged the congregation to reject such thoughts and step into the zone of God‘s abundant life.

Something stirred in me and I decided to reject this sickness and rebuke it. I sat up and declared, “In the name of Jesus, this fever does not belong in me. Jesus came so that I may have life and life more abundantly. THIS is not life and life more abundantly. I am already healed in Jesus‘ name.”

After declaring, I somehow felt energised and carried out my daily routine as if I was already well. As I went about preparing dinner, I could feel the fever leaving me. At the end of the day, I took my temperature again and the fever was gone!

All glory to Jesus! Even though it was just a small issue, God knew I was feeling uncomfortable and He reminded me of how I, as a child of God, can command sicknesses to leave my body.

It doesn‘t necessarily have to be through a specific call by a pastor in the service or a specific sermon on healing. Thank You, Jesus for healing me and thank you, Pastor Prince for reminding me of my identity in Christ as well as my rights to good health.

Chronic Back Pain Gone

For several years, I could not lift my left foot without feeling pain and wearing my underpants was also a challenge. I went for treatment but the pain would come back after a few weeks, and I had to seek treatment again.

Apparently, the L3 to L5 vertebrae in my lumbar spine were degenerating, thus causing my back to ache.

When I sit for one to two hours, my left buttock would become so painful as though something sharp was pricking me.

On Sunday, 12 February 2017, Pastor Prince declared that Jesus wants to heal those who have chronic back pain and I claimed it.

I also saw Jesus bearing my pain at the cross. After that, I felt a warm sensation on my back and buttock, and throughout the service, I could felt a warmth inside of me. That night after shower, I put on my underpants and there was no pain! I was completely healed in Jesus’ name!

All glory to Jesus!

Life Transformed And Blessed With Baby After Believing Right

In 2006, I contracted Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (a chronic autoimmune disease that attacks healthy tissues). I had to take medication to suppress the symptoms. Over the next 10 years, I had a few outbreaks, and each time, I had to consume more and more medicine before my condition improved and the dosage could be reduced. This process was very painful.

I came from a traditional church in China where the teaching was full of condemnation and law. Subsequently, I developed severe depression. Thinking that I was demonpossessed, the church leadership tried to cast demons out of me. This was very hurtful and I spiralled into deeper condemnation, guilt and depression to the point that I could not fully control my behaviour.

I attempted suicide three times and became hostile to my family. I was bitter and couldn’t forgive myself and others. I was suffering inside and my health deteriorated further.

At this time, I came to know about Pastor Prince’s teachings, and started attending a care group. Since embracing God’s grace, I began to understand that His love is unconditional and that He still loves me in spite of my shortcomings. I don’t have to “clean” myself before I go to the Lord to receive His love.

Every day, I would partake of the Holy Communion and declare that there would be a glorious restoration in my body and emotions, and that every area in my life would be well.

In May 2016, my medication was reduced to a minimum. My husband and I started to try for a baby but to no avail. I was worried that it was because of my heavy reliance on medication previously. I kept meditating on God’s Word even though I was upset. I also remembered that the pastor of my current church would quote Pastor Prince’s words saying that “right believing leads to right living”.

So I began to change my mindset and look unto the Lord instead. Though I was undeserving, I knew that God is still willing to bless me. Praise Jesus, I finally became pregnant! On 6 April 2017, I gave birth to a healthy baby.

Now, I no longer indulge in self-pity and am able to forgive those who had hurt me in the past. I really believe there will be a grace revolution in the whole of China and that God’s glory will manifest in the churches here.

Healed Of Piles

I suffered from piles for a few months. Though they had not created any pain or trouble for me, I was rather bothered by them. I was very shy about this condition, and did not ask anyone for prayers.

During this period, I would check on the piles every time I bathed and would ask Abba Father why they were still there. I would often declare “by His stripes, I am healed” and “as Jesus is without piles, so am I in this world”.

Then, on Sunday 19 March 2017, Pastor Gabriel Tan shared a testimony of a pastor in church who was healed of olive-sized piles.

Immediately, I reached out to receive my miracle and freedom from my Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, and declared, “Amen, I am healed and freed from it too in Jesus’ name!”

I was also reminded of what I had read in Pastor Prince’s book, The Power Of Right Believing, a few years ago. In Chapter 18, page 283 to 296, he talked about the healing account of lady with the issue of blood in the Bible. In it, he shared that Jesus did not despise the lepers who came to Him and how good and gracious He was to those who were down-and-out.

What she heard about Jesus produced in her a positive, confident expectation of good as seen in what she declared. The hope she had in the goodness of Jesus became faith and this faith gave her boldness to press through the crowd and receive her healing from Jesus.

I thank Pastor Prince for teaching us on the importance of guarding what we hear (ref.: Roans 10:17). And hearing messages that are full of the good news of Jesus, would give us faith, Amen!

The next morning, on Monday, 20 March 2017, the piles that I had disappeared!

Hallelujah!

Finger Healed After Prayer

On Sunday, 19 November 2017, I attended the 1st service in church when Pastor Prince called for the healing of fingers.

I was shocked and wondered which pastor would call for healing of fingers. I had had problems with the little finger on my right hand for a year. It would become stiff whenever I stretched my fingers to play the piano. 

I never thought about praying for that finger as I thought it was just a sign of aging. When Pastor Prince called for people with the condition to stand up, I was too shy to stand up so I prayed in my heart and flexed my pinky.

At that time, I could not feel anything. Then on the morning of 22 November, I sat down to play the piano again. I was surprised when my finger did not become stiff.

Thank You, God, for the healing, and thank you, Pastor Prince, for your prayers.

Lower Back Pain Gone

In 2017, I suffered from a terrible pain on the left side of my lower back which lasted for a few months. The pain was so severe that I could not bend to wash my face and brush my teeth. I also had difficulty supporting myself to get into the car and had to plonk myself into the seat. I would also experience a sharp pain that would shoot down from my lower back to the left calf.

All this while, I was hoping that Pastor Prince would call out my condition in church but it did not happen. Though I prayed over it, the pain just wouldn’t go away.

One day, while washing my hair in the shower, the pain became so unbearable that I asked the Lord when it would go away. Then, I remembered that Pastor Prince had taught us that God has given us authority in the name of Jesus over all things on earth.

Immediately, I thanked God for this given authority and how all names are to bow to the name of Jesus. Then, I told the pain to leave in the name of Jesus. There and then, the pain subsided and since then, it had never come back.

All praises to our Lord Jesus.

No More Dizzy Spells

In the middle of January this year, I suffered a vertigo attack. After recovering from it, I would continue to get occasional dizzy spells whenever I run, bend down too fast or even look down while on an escalator.

At Encounter Night on Wednesday, 24 January 2018, Pastor Prince ministered in the Spirit and the leaders were invited to pray for the sick.

That night, I prayed for a congregation member who came out to receive prayer for dizziness.

The next morning, I ran to catch a bus and after boarding the bus, I realised that I did not feel dizzy and was completely fine.

Praise the Lord for His complete restoration — and even more that He chose to work through me even when I was fighting my own fight of faith.

Glory to Jesus!

Neck Pain Completely Gone

In January 2018, I had been having a pain in my neck for a few days and had difficulty turning my head.

On 24 January 2018, I was at The Star Gallery during Encounter Night. During the service, Pastor Prince said that our Abba Father loves the people and wants them healed, and that those seated at The Star Gallery would not be left behind.

Then Pastor Prince talked about healing for neck conditions, and I received it in my heart. However, I did not expect to experience the manifestation of it so quickly. 

When Pastor Prince went on to invite women with degenerative spinal problems to stand. I looked up at the screen and realised that there was no more pain in my neck.

I continued to move my head around and found that the pain was completely gone.

The heart of our lovely Lord and Saviour is indeed to heal and bless us.

Pain In Right Arm Gone

On 31 December 2017, I fell and hurt my right side. At that point, I did not think much of it. But as the weeks passed, the pain grew worse.

It reached a point where I could not talk, laugh or breathe properly. I was also unable to move my right arm without feeling tremendous pain in my chest and shoulder.

In the third week of January, I went to see a doctor and did an X-ray and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan. The MRI scan showed that my bones were crushed at the point of impact and my right shoulder joint was inflamed.

According to my physiotherapist, my muscles had become so stiff that they were moving my shoulder out of joint.

As a result, I needed to take anti-inflammatory medication and go for physiotherapy. 

On Wednesday, 24 January 2018, I attended Encounter Night and at the beginning of the service, I was not able to lift up my right arm due to the pain and discomfort. But hallelujah, there were prayers for healing!

When Pastor Prince invited the congregation who were unwell to approach the leaders in the service for prayer, I did just that.

Later, Pastor Prince asked those who had been prayed for to do what they could not do, and I was able to lift up my right arm without any pain.

All glory to God!

Lump On Head Gone And Stiff Shoulder Healed

In April 2017, I found a lump about the size of a five-cent coin on my head.

I remembered in one of Pastor Prince's sermons, he mentioned that we could use the name of Jesus to command sickness and lack to be thrown into the sea. 

So, I did that for weeks and during that time, I developed the habit of checking on the lump every night. And to my disappointment, I would always find the lump there.

In late November 2017, my right shoulder grew stiff. I was not able to fully extend or lift up my right arm high. Whenever I tried to do so, I would experience severe pain in my back. I just kept praying and applying medicated oil on it.

On 11 January 2018, I felt an itch on my head and lifted my right hand to scratch it.

To my surprise, I realised I could fully extend my right arm and not only that, the lump on my head was nowhere to be found. Praise the Lord!

When I checked with my wife, we realised that I had stopped checking on the lump since June 2017. Truly, when we let go of our problems and not focus on it, God’s supply flows. All glory to our God!

Father Nearly Died and Recovered After Taking the Holy Communion Consistently

In October 2013, my father went through four big surgeries in six weeks for the spine, a heart clot, bladder cancer and a prostate incision. For an 85-year-old, it took God's grace to survive the back-to-back surgeries. Hoping to recover quickly, he often overdosed himself with medicines, and had to be sent to the emergency room. He grew weaker and weaker. In August 2014, my father was sent to the Intensive Care Unit, or ICU, due to an overdose again. His vital signs quickly dropped to zero: there was no blood pressure, no breathing and no urine. He was resuscitated and kept alive on machines so that we could come back from overseas to see him for the last time.

Before this, I had started listening to Pastor Joseph Prince’s teachings on the Holy Communion. I had also studied church history and theology, and had asked God to let me find and share only the unadulterated gospel. I examined what Pastor Prince taught by listening to his sermons non-stop for days. I was overjoyed by the grace gospel. The difference between what has been preached in other churches and the gospel of grace was like night and day.

When I flew home from the US, I decided to take the Holy Communion with him even though he was still unconscious. Because he had no kidney function, fluid was retained in his body and he was completely puffed up. I prayed Psalm 91over him and took the Holy Communion with him by wetting his lips using cotton filled with grape juice. I sprinkled breadcrumbs on his lips to signify him taking Jesus’ broken body. I decided to take the Holy Communion every time I visited him.

Jesus is faithful to His covenant! After the 1st Communion, 500ml of urine was released, which means his kidney function had recovered. With the 2nd Communion, his heart rate and blood pressure were restored, and he no longer needed to be resuscitated by injections. At the 3rd Communion, he could breathe independently. His vital signs stabilised at the 4th Communion.

The doctors told us that my dad would very likely be in a vegetative state since he had been in a coma for six days. However, we prayed that his mind, emotions and reasoning would be restored. After the 6th Communion, he opened his eyes slightly. With the 7th Communion, he was able to open his eyes wide and turn his head towards voices. At the 8th Communion, he awoke fully.

Then, he started to suffer massive internal bleeding and could have gone back into a coma. Because of the bleeding, the doctor could not carry out an endoscopy to determine the reason or source. We took Communion and commanded the bleeding to stop in the name of Jesus. We did not have enough faith ourselves and were not sure when the bleeding would stop. Amazingly, it stopped on the second morning, and the tubing had no trace of blood.

We continued with our 10th Communion and we heard bowel movement as soon as we finished praying. All the unclean blood was excreted out! At the 12th Communion, my father spoke. Again and again, the Lord demonstrated His healing power through the Communion.

My father was in and out of the ICU until one day, my sister and I partook of the Holy Communion ourselves and asked the Lord to grant my father a few good days without the sickbed. Three days later, my father’s health improved by a big leap. He was able to sit in a wheelchair and got some fresh air outside the hospital.

He was discharged after 50 days in the hospital. We just celebrated his 86th birthday in his favourite restaurant! What an amazing God who loves us and answers us graciously. Even my father’s physician admitted his recovery is indeed a miracle. Praise His name!

Blocked Ears Opened After Prayer

In September 2017, I woke up with a blocked left ear, leaving me about 30 per cent deaf in that ear.

Subsequently, I came down with flu which I thought was related since the passageways tend to swell up and block the eustachian tubes. However, the flu came and went, but the blocked ear remained. Not only that, it got worse.

About a month and three visits to two different general practitioners later, the ear remained stubbornly blocked. By then, I was 70 per cent deaf in my left ear. To make things worse, my right ear started to feel obstructed too and there was one point when I even experienced severe shooting pains at the back of my head.

In December 2017, I decided to seek help from an ear, nose and throat specialist. Suffice to say, it was a rather harrowing and expensive experience that involved a magnetic resonance imaging scan, three injections into my ear and multiple visits to two hospitals.

Then, things became even worse. I spent Christmas deaf in both ears, albeit in varying degrees. By the time 2018 came, I was experiencing ringing and buzzing noises in the left ear which was by then 80 per cent blocked.

Life went on, but inside, I was troubled and really confused. I had seen three doctors, downed at least 50 pills, suffered three injections and yet nothing worked.

Then, on Wednesday, 24 January 2018, I attended Encounter Night in church with my wife and our buddies, Eric and Ian.

After a short worship session, Pastor Prince led the church in a time of ministering during which he prayed for specific conditions that people were suffering from. Testimonies were rampant as people were getting healed left, right and centre.

Then, he invited everyone who needed prayer to stand in the aisles to be prayed for by the other pastors and leaders, so I did.

Ian, who was a youth leader, also came forward to pray for those around him. When my turn came, Ian held my finger to my left ear and prayed a short prayer in less than 10 words.

As I removed my index finger, I could instantly hear better as though someone had turned up the volume on the stereo!

Initially, I was sceptical. Though I have been a Christian for almost all my life, I felt like it was too good to be true. Yet, it didn’t change the fact that the miracle had happened — I started to hear a whole lot more clearly.

It has been a week and I’m happy to report that I’m 100 per cent healed. My hearing is back to normal and I’m feeling great! The only impairment I have is the “selective hearing” which my wife claims didn’t get healed.

80-Year-Old Mum’s Remarkable Recovery

About two weeks before Christmas in 2017, my mum who was turning 80 years old, had a bout of vomiting and diarrhoea. 

She said it was something that she ate and we thought she would be fine. She even went to see a doctor and was treated as such. However, on the third night, she lapsed into a very bad state.

She was pale, shivering and couldn’t talk. I immediately prayed and spoke God’s protection and healing over her. I called for an ambulance and she was sent to the emergency unit. 

After checking on my mum, the doctor told me that her intestine was blocked and she was severely dehydrated. He also added that there was a possibility that her organs might start to fail and she had to undergo an operation to remove the part of the intestine that was blocked and there were risks involved due to her advanced age.

I prayed in tongues that night, and asked Jesus to guide the doctors and medical staff in treating my mum. Thankfully, her operation went smoothly and she was sent to the intensive care unit (ICU) where they would monitor her for 48 hours.

In the ICU, I could do nothing else other than lay hands and pray for her. I also felt led to play the Chinese worship song Behold believing that in her medically drugged state, my mum would still be ministered to by the love of Christ.

I also listened to Pastor Prince’s sermons, in particular the one titled Live Full of Faith and somehow, my faith felt supercharged when I did so. Friends from my serving team and care group also stood in faith with me.

The next thing I knew, my mum made remarkable recovery. She was out of ICU within a week, moved to a high dependency ward and soon after, to a general ward. She has since been discharged and is recuperating at home. All glory to Jesus, our loving Saviour and Shepherd of our lives.

Panic Attacks Gone

On 19 June 2016, while I was making my way home on the train, I suddenly felt dizzy and breathless. My heart palpitated extremely fast and I almost fainted. I was praying as I made my way to the nearest clinic.

At the clinic, the doctor found that my blood pressure level was very high. The clinic called for an ambulance to send me to the hospital. I was admitted on the same evening, and stayed there for two days and two nights.

Thanks to the prayers, support and help from my loved ones, recovery was easy. However, I would think to myself how things could have been worse and what could have happened to me on that day. Day and night, I would thank the Lord for His deliverance but deep down in my heart, I was still worried and fearful.

Four days after I was discharged from the hospital, I experienced another panic attack. My heart started to beat very fast. I went to the clinic and they asked me to go back to the hospital again since my blood pressure reading was high.

Again, I was sent to the accident and emergency unit. That night, my employers visited me in the hospital and told me that only Jesus could help me. Later, the doctor told me that I needed to be put under observation for eight hours.

Before my employers went home, they prayed for me. On the same night, I also asked God to give me calmness and peace of mind. I also declared healing over my body and that the blood of Jesus would cover me. The next morning, which was a Sunday, the doctor informed me that I could be discharged because my blood pressure was back to normal and there were no other complications. Praise God!

On our way home, I told my employers that I would go to church with them instead of going on my own. The Lord is so good because He put me at the right place at the right time. That day, the sermon by Pastor Prince was about Psalm 91 and God’s protection over us.

When he was preaching, he stopped and said that God had told him that someone in the congregation was worried about getting a stroke. But God was assuring the person that it would not happen.

When I heard Pastor Prince said those words, I was in tears. My employer looked at me and said that the message was for me. I knew and believed in my heart that the message was for me. God is so good! He knew my worries and sent the answer through Pastor Prince. I felt so loved. After the service, I approached a church leader to pray over me.

The next day, when I experienced heart palpitations again, I prayed and declared that I am complete in Christ, it was just a lying symptom and that by Jesus’ stripes I am already healed. After a few minutes, I was calm and the palpitations had stopped. Thank You, Jesus!

Since then, when I wake up every day, I would always declare that I am complete in Christ. I know that I am greatly blessed, highly favoured and deeply loved. To God be the glory!

A New Lease of Life

On 19 May 2016, my husband Victor was playing tennis with his friends when he felt giddy and later fainted, and went into a seizure. When he woke up, he was unaware of what had happened. He wanted to continue his game but he felt led to rest. He then felt nauseous and started to vomit. His friends wanted to call for an ambulance but he insisted on calling me instead.

When I received the call, I sensed that something wasn’t right. When I was told that my husband had fainted and would like me to pick him home, I thought he might have over–exerted himself. When I reached the tennis court, Victor was sitting up and sweaty. Seeing that he was still feeling nauseous, I decided to take him to the hospital.

On the way to the hospital, I quickly sent a text message to my care group members to request for prayers for my husband. On arrival, Victor was admitted. While waiting for answers from the doctors, I was not able to see Victor and was all alone. Nonetheless, I had God’s peace. I thanked God for my brother Sam and my son who came later. My care group members also readily offered their help and wanted to keep me company in the hospital. More importantly, I thanked God for prayers that were made and declared over Victor during that time.

After four hours, the doctors informed me that they suspect that Victor had a stroke. But this was later ruled out. Victor continued to vomit, and his blood pressure and heart rate dropped. He was taken to the resuscitation room and given oxygen to help regulate his breathing and to raise his blood pressure and heart rate.

Following that, he was moved to the Intensive Care Unit. As Victor did not experience chest pain, the doctors did not suspect that it could be a heart attack until he was sent for further tests.

The next day, one of my care group members, Susan, came and kept me accompany. As we were not allowed to visit Victor, we partook of the Holy Communion in the visitors’ lounge while more tests were done on him.

When I finally saw the doctor, he told us that Victor actually had a heart attack! Tests showed that three of his arteries were 95 per cent blocked. His blood pressure and heartbeat were very low. The doctor also said that his heart was very diseased and that he was very ill. We were allowed to see him for about 30 seconds, and so we quickly applied the anointing oil on his forehead and prayed, “By Jesus’ stripes, you are healed.” When we went back to the visitors’ lounge, Susan and I partook of the Holy Communion again and recited Psalm 23 together. Susan also called our care group leader, Joseph, to update him of Victor’s condition.

I was actually in a daze after receiving the negative report. But Susan suggested that we declare healing scriptures over Victor and so I joined her. We also rejected the negative reports and declared that Victor’s body is healed because of Jesus’ finished work. We also claimed restoration for his heart.

Subsequently, Joseph joined us at the hospital. He applied anointing oil on Victor’s forehead, prayed over him and together, we partook of the Holy Communion again.

Amazingly, Victor was his usual self — alert and chatty. He told us that before he fainted, he had uttered the name “Jesus”. I believe that Jesus heard him and caused him to wake up after he was unconscious for two minutes. I understand that in most cases, those who collapsed due to a heart attack would go into a coma. It was a miracle that Victor was conscious during the trip to the hospital which took almost an hour!

Victor underwent angioplasty, and two metal stents were inserted into his blocked arteries. Subsequently, he had a balloon catheter and an external pacemaker inserted into his heart. Praise God that after two and a half days in Intensive Care Unit, he was certified well enough to be transferred to the general ward. And after another two and a half days, he was discharged from the hospital. A total of five days — the number of grace! The senior cardiac consultant told Victor that he was fortunate to be given a second lease of life, as most people with his condition do not pull through.

We know it is all because of what we have in Jesus — He redeemed us on the cross and gave us His health. We believe that God gave Victor a new lease of life! We thank Pastor Prince for teaching us to believe in and to speak God’s words, and about the power of the Holy Communion and anointing oil.

Life Preserved with a Speedy Recovery

When I was in my teens, I was bullied in school, and this caused me to suffer from depression for more than 10 years. Even though I grew up in a Christian school, I lived life burdened with the weight of condemnation as my family members were not believers.

This went on until I joined my current company where I met bosses whom I look up to. They introduced me to New Creation Church in September 2016, and I believed it was Jesus who had directed my path there.

At midnight on 25 January 2017, I met with a traffic accident while on my way home. My colleague had dropped me off, and as I was crossing the road, I was suddenly hit by a cab. I went up the cab’s bonnet and was flung at least half a metre away. I fell with my laptop in my right arm.

I was shocked and couldn't move. I tried to drag myself to the middle of the road where the barricade was to avoid the oncoming vehicles from the other side of the road.

Thankfully, the cars did not roll over my leg, and I was not unconscious! My belongings were also only slightly damaged.

To cut the story short, I was sent to the hospital after a good 20 minutes.

I contacted my bosses and they prayed for my healing. I also kept laying hands on my thigh and confessing that by Jesus’ stripes, I am healed and that I am covered by His precious blood.

I was also encouraged by a healing testimony screened in church on the Sunday before my accident.

That night, I left the hospital with only some scabs and bruises, and limped home without having to use a wheelchair. It was hard to believe that I had gotten into a traffic accident.

Two weeks later, I was completely healed. I did not have to take additional medication, and did not suffer any bone fractures! I believe this was the work of Jesus and a result of His healing power.

I would like to thank my bosses and most importantly, my Lord Jesus and my Abba Father who heard my prayers and saved my life!

No More Lump in the Gum!

I have been a Christian for 28 years since I was in primary school. But in the past, I only knew about the law and that God was a judge. As for the gospel of grace, I totally had no revelation about it.

In January 2013, I heard Pastor Prince’s sermon on the Internet and that was when my family began to attend New Creation Church. Since then, we would partake of the Holy Communion every day as a family.

In January 2015, my daughter had a little lump growing on the left of her lower gum. Her dentist suggested to do minor surgery to remove it. But my daughter, who attends the children’s ministry, Rock Kidz, refused to do so.

In the end, we chose to continue partaking of the Holy Communion and trust God for His restoration, because we believe that as we behold Jesus’ finished work on the cross, healing will flow. We also kept declaring that as Jesus is, so are we in this world.

Then in November 2015, my daughter tasted blood coming from the left of her lower gum. When she tried to clean it with a piece of tissue, she saw blood and a little lump on the tissue.

Surprisingly, the little lump was removed from her gum — without any surgery. Praise the Lord! Indeed, Jesus is our healer. All the glory be to God!

Mother Healed from Internal Bleeding

On Friday, 13 September 2013, my 85-year-old mother was admitted to the hospital due to internal bleeding. She went through various scans but the doctors could not find the cause.

She kept bleeding until the next day and the doctors told me and my siblings that they had to remove part of her colon. Despite not being hundred per cent sure if that was the cause, the doctors insisted on an operation as my mum was still losing blood and five packets of blood had already been transfused into her. From the beginning, I was never in favour of the operation as this meant a stoma would be permanently created to drain waste out of my mum’s body.

Finally, we concluded that the operation would be our last option. However, when evening came, my mum’s condition did not improve and the doctors gave us one hour to make a decision.

I contacted Pastor Mathews who assured me that God was in control. He also declared that my mum was healthy and need not go through the operation. My fellow servers from Royal Service Ministry also started sending me encouraging messages. Together, we prayed for wisdom and stood on the Word of God that my mum would not die but live and declare the works of the Lord.

When the hour was up, I told the doctor we would not proceed with the operation. He agreed on the condition that the bleeding must cease by night time; otherwise, he would proceed to operate on my mum.

Saturday night came and passed. Nothing happened. When Sunday arrived, all her bleeding miraculously stopped. She began to recover and finally by the following Saturday, she was discharged!

Praise the Lord! Till now, the doctors could not explain the reason for her bleeding neither could they understand her supernatural healing.

I thank God for Pastor Prince who taught us that prayer is just a simple declaration. All we need is to declare what we want in Jesus’ name and it shall happen!

Vision Improved After Speaking and Declaring

In 1989, both of my mum’s eyes suffered from retinal detachment. She underwent three eye operations which all proved to be unsuccessful as there was too many tears in her retinas for the eye surgeon to seal them. Fluid was constantly seeping through her retinas, causing them to slowly peel away from the back walls of the eyes. After the third unsuccessful operation, we were told to prepare for her severe vision loss and blindness in the months to follow. 

Interestingly, after one agonising week, my mum’s eye surgeon recommended a brand new eye surgery technique which was then in its experimental stage. Being the only believer in the family then, I went before the Lord and He gave me the verse, “I would have lost heart unless I believed, that I would see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.” (Psalm 27:13)

I took it as God’s promise to me and my mum that this new eye surgery technique would help my mum see as long as she lives. We proceeded with the surgery and indeed her retinas were successfully reattached to the back walls of the eyes.

Since then, 24 years have passed and my mum continues to see because God remains faithful to His promise.

However, due to the tears in her eyes, my mum’s vision remained poor. She was required to go for an annual check-up and have her vision tested. Each time, she could only see the number of fingers on the nurse’s hand, placed less than one metre before her eyes. She could never read the numbers and letters on the eye chart, which was about seven metres away. We were told that her poor vision would remain for life, but at least she wouldn’t go blind.

In 2004, my mum came to know the Lord under Pastor Mark’s ministry and attends the Hokkien service regularly. This year, 2013, she was taught to believe and speak forth her blessings. She began declaring that her vision would improve. Every night, we would also pray that being a daughter of Sarah, her youth would be renewed like the eagle’s and her eyes would not grow dim even at the age of 77.

A few weeks ago, she went for her annual check-up. As usual, she went to have her vision tested. Remembering how she had never been able to read anything at all, I was prepared to tell the nurse to skip the eye chart. But at that moment, I felt the Holy Spirit stopping me and reminding me that my mum had been speaking over her eyes in faith.

As I was listening to the prompting of the Holy Spirit, the nurse had already switched on the eye chart and lo and behold, I could hear my mum accurately reading the letters and numbers all the way down to the third line of the chart. The nurse herself commented that her vision had indeed improved.

Later in the consultation room, the ophthalmologist commented that her retina reattachments had remained stable throughout the past two decades. He also added that her vision had improved. With this good report, he decided to discharge her and close her medical file permanently.

Wow! Indeed as one believes, one speaks! And God’s outcome always exceeds our expectations. From lifelong poor vision to improved vision! Now, my mum and I believe and therefore we speak, “Perfect vision for tomorrow! Grace, grace!”

Supernatural Healing from Caffeine Overdose

On 16 August 2013, I was experiencing irregular heartbeat, shivers, giddiness and numbness all over my body. These were effects of a caffeine overdose and my father drove me to the hospital.

When we reached the Accident and Emergency department, my father had to carry me in as I could not walk on my own. The doctor who examined me told me that I was showing signs of cardiac arrest. I was shocked because I am only 22 years old! I began meditating on God’s Word and kept repeating that “by His stripes, I am healed”. (Isaiah 53:5)

I was put on a drip and I had to be warded. Throughout the night, I could not sleep. Then, I remembered Pastor Prince teaching us to read the Word when we are sick. So I opened my Bible and began reading the book of Matthew where Jesus made the blind see, the lame walk and the leper whole.

At one point, I read about the woman with the issue of blood and how she was instantly healed the moment she touched the hem of Jesus’ robe by faith. I recalled Pastor Prince once shared that if he were to film a scene from the Bible, he would lay all the sick on both sides of a road and as Jesus walked past them, the hem of His garment would touch the sick and they would jump up healed, rejoicing and praising the name of Jesus. So, I pictured myself in that crowd and imagined Jesus walking past me, making me whole again. There and then, I declared that I am already healed and whole in Jesus’ name!

Soon, I dozed off and when I woke up, my strength was restored and I was able to move around on my own. Praise the Lord! All my medical reports came back cleared and I was discharged within 12 hours. Our God is a mighty God and He heals!

Divine Healing for Grandfather

On 20 July 2013, my daughter was performing on stage for the first time at her school’s open house. My grandparents, mother and husband wanted to be present to give her our full support. Though my grandfather wasn’t feeling well in the morning, he insisted on joining us.

When we arrived at the school, my grandfather looked rather pale. I sensed that he was still unwell but my attention was diverted by the noise and crowd. I then joined my husband to help our daughter prepare for her performance.

Shortly after, my husband received a call informing us that my grandfather had fainted in the canteen. We rushed to the canteen and saw my grandfather showing symptoms of a stroke! He was soaked in cold sweat and his face was drooping. It was a terrible sight!

I didn’t know what to do. All I could do was to sing praises to our Lord and declare that my grandfather is healthy and strong. I also proclaimed that he shall not die but live because Jesus had taken away all his pain and sicknesses. I then joined hands with my mum and husband, and we prayed in the Spirit. I also applied what Pastor Prince taught us a few weeks ago to speak God’s grace into our situations and called out, “Grace, grace”.

On the way to the hospital, the paramedics ran some tests on my grandfather and found that he was in a critical condition; his blood pressure was extremely high and his arteries were blocked.

Miraculously, my grandfather regained consciousness in the hospital and he even chatted happily with other patients in the ward. That evening, the doctor returned with the test results and they were astounding! Not only was the CT scan clear, the blood tests normal, the arteries also showed no signs of blockage! The doctor said it was truly a miracle. In most cases, patients at my grandfather’s age of 80, could not have survived the ordeal.

My grandfather was discharged two days later with a clean bill of health. I now know that healing is ours to claim and all we need is to just believe God’s Word!

Healthy Through Meditating on The Word

Earlier in the year 2013, I suddenly became ill. The symptoms include a burning tongue, spots on my tongue, a persistent thirst and sore gums. Doctors said they couldn’t diagnose my condition without conducting further tests. I did not go for tests as I was afraid.

Because the cause of my illness was unknown, I became very careful with my food intake. Instead of putting my trust in God, I decided to rely on my own efforts to eat a lot of fruits and vegetables every day. It became such an obsession that if I forgot to do so, I would get very frantic and worried.

Slowly, some of the symptoms did go away and I gave credit to the fruits and vegetables! But I was slowly becoming paranoid and would imagine the worst case scenario for any symptom I felt. One day, I had dinner with my mother and told her about the pain I’d been going through. She told me to entrust my problems to the Lord. I realised how tiring it was trying to keep myself healthy through my self-efforts.

That night, I broke down crying and prayed to God for help. The very next morning, I suddenly felt a prompting to surf New Creation Church’s website. I clicked on an article and while I was reading it, two verses caught my attention and they were, “Worship the Lord your God, and His blessings will be on your food and water. I will take away sickness from among you, none shall miscarry or be barren in your land. I will give you a full life span.” (Exodus 23:25–26, NIV)

I’ve never encountered these verses before and was astounded; I immediately knew it was God talking to me! I meditated on the verses day and night for a few weeks. I am now totally healed and just eat the food I want. And my heart is at such peace that I slept so well every night. Praise be to God! He is indeed a living God who speaks to us in times of need.

Supernatural Removal of Kidney Stones

My wife and I are residing in Australia and we have been following Pastor Prince's sermons via his books, DVDs and the Internet. 

Back in mid-2010, I came back to Singapore for a routine CT scan for my back pain which revealed a small renal stone in my right kidney. However, it wasn't giving me any trouble then. Two years later, I detected blood in my urine on a number of occasions and was referred to an urologist in Australia. After further examinations, I was told that there were two kidney stones measuring about 4mm each! I was monitored through yearly check-ups as I wasn’t prepared to consider further medical intervention.

Everything seemed fine until the night of 6 May 2013, when I experienced severe back pain that radiated all the way to my lower abdomen. The pain was unbearable and I broke out in cold sweat.

The pain and discomfort continued for days. By God's grace, I happened to share my condition with my mother, who has been deeply impacted by Pastor Prince’s teachings. She reminded me to pray over my condition and partake of the Holy Communion, and also said that she would pray for me.

Heeding her advice, I partook of the Holy Communion before my afternoon nap. I declared that because my body is the temple of God, the condition could not remain in me anymore.

I woke up from my nap feeling extremely peaceful. I went to the toilet and passed out numerous dark specks including a piece of stone measuring around 4mm! I did not even know the stone was passed out initially as there wasn't any pain at all!

Subsequently, I consulted my family physician who was also very amazed by the whole episode. He said that it was a miracle that a kidney stone of that size could be removed from the body without undergoing surgery! He added that for me to pass out the stone would have been very painful and morphine would be required to manage it.

I am very grateful to Pastor Prince for his wonderful teachings on God’s grace and divine healing through the Holy Communion. Now, my symptoms are gone and I am well again! Hallelujah!

Grandma Healed Through the Anointing Oil

In late 2012, my grandmother who is over 90 years old and a believer, was admitted to hospital. The prognosis by the doctor was not very good and we were told to be prepared for the worst.

When I saw my grandmother, she was unconscious and looked very weak as she was unable to eat. Just as I was about to leave the ward, I had a prompting to pray for her. So I applied anointing oil on her forehead and prayed to God for protection, strength and healing. After praying, she was still unconscious and so I left the hospital together with my mother.

Around 20 minutes later, we received a call from my brother who had just arrived at the hospital. He informed us that my grandmother was awake, chatting with them and eating. We were totally surprised to hear this as moments ago, she was still unconscious!

A few days later, she was fit enough to be discharged from the hospital.

Later, she told us that while she was unconscious, she had experienced unrest and fear in her mind, but when we prayed and applied the anointing oil on her, she sensed God’s peace within her.

This incident has encouraged me and the family greatly. We know that it is the love of God and His healing power that had lengthened the days of my grandmother. I apply the holy anointing oil daily on my family, remembering and confessing that it is the finished work of Jesus Christ at the cross that blesses and gives us rest.

We give all the glory and praises to the Lord. Hallelujah!

Healed from Insomnia!

I suffered from insomnia for four years. At times, I would remain awake till morning and the longest I remember going without sleep was five days in a row! Sometimes, I even resort to taking anti-anxiety pills and muscle relaxants to get some sleep. But, the pills could only help me fall asleep at 4am when I had to get up for work at 7am!

During this period, I would be kept awake by an immense fear of myself or people around me dying. But there were also occasions when there was just no reason why I could not fall asleep.

Things started to change when I came to New Creation Church and learnt about Jesus’ love for me. The breakthrough didn’t happen overnight but when I started listening to sermons and partaking of the Holy Communion, God began to flush out my lifestyle of alcohol and late nights. I also started confessing that insomnia had no power over me.

At first, I was discouraged because I was still unable to sleep, but I continued confessing. After two months, things started to take a turn for the better. I was able to sleep more days in a row.

I also started declaring the truth of God’s Word over myself after reading Proverbs 3:24–26 (The Message) where it is written, “You’ll take afternoon naps without a worry, you’ll enjoy a good night’s sleep. No need to panic over alarms… Because God will be right there with you; He’ll keep you safe and sound.”

Soon, the frequency of my insomnia reduced to only once in a month and now it no longer happens and I can even take naps! Praise the Lord! What was impossible for me to change became possible with God! Hallelujah, this is the power of His Word!

Healed from Kidney Stone

I awoke with an excruciating sharp pain in my left kidney on 23 February 2013, at around 1am. I tried to ignore it at first but it just seemed to get worse as the minutes passed by.

My husband rushed me to the hospital. The doctors injected me with painkillers but they did not help. I still kept thrashing about as the sharp pain was unbearable. Finally, after receiving a third dose of painkillers, the pain finally became more manageable.

I was admitted and sent for a CT scan. The results showed that I had a stone that had moved from my kidney and was almost reaching my bladder. However, the doctor said that the surrounding area had collapsed and it would not be possible for the stone to pass through. She also said that she would need to do a small operation to extract the stone and insert a stent into the collapsed area so that urine could pass through normally. The stent would need to be removed one week later by another surgical procedure.

This news put a lot of fear in me, but I agreed to have the procedure done that evening. Just before the operation, my husband and I partook of the Holy Communion and applied anointing oil. We prayed and decided to leave everything to Jesus. Later, while I was taking a bath, I suddenly felt a very sharp pain in my groin area. I thought the pain was triggered by the kidney stone.

When I was wheeled into the waiting area of the operating theatre, I remembered the word that the Lord had given to Pastor Prince for 2013, it was about the key of David and how Jesus holds that key and He will open doors for us that no one can shut and shut doors that no one can open. I prayed to the Lord that if this operation was not meant for me, He would close the door and no one could open it.

The doctor came to me and asked me how I was feeling and I suddenly realised that I hadn’t felt any pain since I went to have a bath. I told her that I actually felt fine and I described to her what had happened earlier. She said she wanted to stop the procedure and do another CT scan to see if the stone had passed through.

The result was astounding, not only had the stone passed through, the surrounding area that had collapsed seemed to be back to normal, just as it should be! My husband and I knew what Jesus had done for us and that He wanted to remind us that nothing is too small or too great for Him.

Thank you Pastor Prince for sharing such amazing truths about our Jesus and unfolding His beauty to us every week.

Healed by Meditating

In April 2013, I watched Pastor Prince’s DVD titled Grace Revolution. It jolted me to my core as I had always felt condemned for all the sins I'd committed and continue to commit, and thought that I didn’t deserve God’s blessings.

Well, now I know otherwise. I started to practise what Pastor Prince preached about basking in God’s love and believing that our Lord Jesus Christ had paid for our past, present and future sins through His finished work at the cross. It made me want to be a better person too. I couldn’t wait to lay my hands on more of Pastor Prince’s DVDs.

I began to understand the Bible better. There are still times when I feel the words swimming around in circles, but I don’t feel so "lost" every time I read it.

In Pastor Prince’s DVD, Meditate — Release The Power Of God's Word, he mentioned that when we meditate on God’s Word that speaks into our situations, we begin to experience God’s unmerited favour. The next morning after watching the DVD, I woke up repeating “God is the Alpha and the Omega. God is always in control.” I recall saying the same words even in my half asleep state during the night. I don't know why these words were stuck in my head, but they did.

On 22 April 2013, at around 4.30pm, I began to feel sharp pains around the region of my left kidney and though I felt the need to urinate, I could not. This is not the first time I have experienced this. I had sought medical attention at the A & E on two separate occasions when it happened. At around 6pm, the pain got so intense that I asked my husband if I should go to A & E again.

In all honesty, I did pray for God’s healing when I experienced the same thing the last two times, but my prayers then were fraught with apologies to God. I even apologised for drinking too much soda which may have resulted in the pain I felt.

Then, it dawned on me that I should stop condemning myself since Jesus has already paid for all my silly mistakes. I should start thanking Him for His grace instead!

I started meditating again, “God is the Alpha and the Omega. God is always in control. Thank You Lord Jesus, for healing me.” I can't recall how when I began to feel the pain ebbing, but it was definitely less than five minutes and it brought the brightest smile to my face.

I kept on repeating the words until I dozed off and could even hear myself breathing deeply. I also had no problem emptying my bladder and ate a hearty meal too!

At 10pm that day, I sat down at my dining table to write my testimony. Praise God, thank You Lord Jesus.

Healed of Hyperthyroidism

I was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism. There were some symptoms that I have suffered from, but the one that really affected me was a fast heartbeat. My doctor informed me that as a result of this, I would have a shorter life expectancy. I was in Secondary 3 at that time and decided to take the medicine my doctor prescribed. I hoped that it would cure my condition.

After about a year of taking the medicine, my thyroid started to function normally and my doctor said I could stop taking the medicine. He also informed me that if I did not have a relapse, it was likely that I am cured.

Then one day, about six months after I stopped taking the medicine, I experienced a high fever and constant diarrhoea. That night, my body excreted a grey paste. At this point, I became very afraid. I arranged to see my doctor and he told me that I’d had a relapse. I was extremely depressed as this meant my thyroid gland had become overactive again.

My doctor gave me two options, one was to go for an operation to remove my thyroid and the other was to drink a radioiodine solution that would slow my thyroid’s production of thyroid hormones. I didn’t want either and told my doctor that I wanted to take the medicine again and see if that would cure me. I took the medicine for the next year until March 2012.

Before this, I had never attended New Creation Church, and the teachings I’d listened to previously were quite different. The first time I heard the gospel of grace from Pastor Prince, I was completely taken aback. I was never told how much God loves us and of His mercy and grace.

During a service in January 2013, Pastor Prince prayed for healing. I lifted my hands and thanked Jesus for His mercy and grace. It was then I felt a warm sensation unlike anything I had felt before in my neck. I knew right there and then that Jesus had healed me completely.

On 25 March 2013, I received an email from my doctor that my test results were good. I can now eat prawn noodles which I had to avoid previously.

Thank You Jesus for everything, and thank you Pastor Prince for preaching the gospel of grace.

God Provides, Restores and Protects

I got married in early 2012 and the year was progressing normally. Like many newly-weds, my wife and I were worried about rising house prices and various other matters. We had prayed for a good unit and ended up buying the first one we viewed. Thank God that we managed to find a unit we liked.

However, I made several bad investments and lost a large chunk of my savings within a month during November 2012. I became very depressed and upset, but nevertheless, I continued to thank the Lord for my wife and family.

Looking back, I realised that despite praying and “trusting” in the Lord and His finished work, my heart and faith did not agree. Instead of resting in Jesus and His grace, I would choose to guess how God could help me mount a comeback. But we can never guess how our God works. The more we try to do so, the more we rely on our self-efforts.

By the end of 2012, I was at an ultimate low. It was only during the last service of 2012 when we received the prayer request card for 2013 that things started to change for me. I wrote down my prayer requests and prayed over them. One of them was to be financially secure for our new home and future.

During the New Year service in January 2013, Pastor Prince shared the message on the key of David. This touched our hearts, and my wife and I prayed for open doors (that may bless us) and closed doors (that may hurt us).

After hearing that message, miraculous things began to happen. God blessed me with several opportunities where I was blessed with returns of three times what I had lost in November 2012. Resting and trusting in Him to open and close doors has been the best thing that has ever happened and I cannot wait for more blessings in 2013! 

Just before Chinese New Year, my 85-year-old grandmother suffered a brain haemorrhage. The doctors diagnosed a 40 per cent chance of surviving. They told us that even if she survived, her brain may be damaged. According to the doctors, most patients in her condition would be entirely knocked out, but because of her old age and shrinking brain, she remained conscious despite the swelling in her brain. They also told us that if her situation became worse, they could not operate on her as it was almost certain she would suffer from brain damage.

We could do nothing but pray and let her know that she was in good hands. Despite feeling ill and somewhat confused, she was still able to say that she would leave everything in the hands of the Lord. All glory to God, she has now recovered and although her mobility is slightly impaired and she might still be confused at times, she recognises all the family members and never stops giving thanks to the Lord for protecting her throughout the ordeal.

My family and I are so excited and blessed to receive the messages God delivers through Pastor Prince. We look forward to see the rest of our prayer requests being fulfilled in this year of open doors!

Recovery from Brain Seizure

In December 2012, my mother was taken ill and fell into a coma. She was admitted to hospital and whilst in the Intensive Care Unit went through many CT and MRI scans. Doctors could not tell what was wrong except for a seizure in her brain. She remained in a coma for 10 days.

I called the New Creation Church Crisis Helpline and Deacon Boon Cheng and his wife came to pray and partake of the Holy Communion. My friend also partook of the Communion and we claimed the finished work of Christ on the cross and proclaimed that by Jesus’ stripes my mother was healed!

I visited my mother daily to pray in the Spirit and proclaimed she was the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus, and as He is, so is she in this world and through Christ Jesus, the law of the Spirit of life had set my mother free from the law of sin and death.

On 19 December 2012, my mother opened her eyes. Praise the Lord! She was subsequently moved to a lower dependency ward even though she still had to be fed through a tube. Throughout the whole period, I kept laying my hands on her proclaiming the Word of Christ and praying in the Spirit.

On 3 January 2013, my mother was transferred to the hospital rehabilitation centre. Even though she was sleeping most of the time, we continued to pray for healing daily at the centre. Her right leg which had been numb began to show signs of life and slowly gained more and more strength. Eventually, by the end of January, she could turn herself on her side. The fingers on her right hand could move a little bit.

She had great difficulty getting into the wheelchair at the rehabilitation centre. Nurses had to use all their strength to transfer her from her bed to the wheelchair so she could attend her rehabilitation. Her right leg continued to improve and she started to use a robotic walking machine. Ten days of walking saw a marked improvement.

In the beginning of March, she was transferred to a community hospital while my sister arranged to hire a maid to take care of her at home. Meanwhile, I kept on praying whenever I visited her proclaiming the Word of Christ in Psalm 34 to heal her body and calling on God’s breath to breathe life into her that she may live.

All glory to Jesus, my mother had improved so much that she no longer needed a wheelchair to get around! A week before she was due to be discharged, she could walk with the aid of a walking stick. I also observed her right hand coming back to life — she could almost hold a cup without shaking!

Hallelujah! This is the goodness of God through Jesus Christ’s finished work at the cross.

Thank you Pastor Prince for teaching us about partaking of the Holy Communion and praying in the Spirit. All glory to Jesus. Amen!

Praise the Lord for He Is Good!

My family and I have been living overseas for the past five years. We planned our holiday in Singapore during the festive season not knowing that NCC’s first service at The Star Performing Arts Centre would fall on Christmas week. We were absolutely blessed to be part of the whole celebration.

During the Christmas service, Pastor Prince asked the congregation to bring three prayer requests along to the last service for 2012.  My husband and I attended the service the following week where I brought my three prayer requests to the Lord and my first was for good health for my family.

New Year’s Day was the last day of our holiday in Singapore before our return to Japan. I woke up feeling nauseous with stomach cramps and pain. I did not know how I got the symptoms and was very disappointed. I had requested for good health and was very sick on the first day of the year!

As we were due to fly that very night, I was concerned how I would be able to cope during the long flight. Then, I remembered Pastor Prince talking about the story of Leah and how she was focusing on herself.  Through his preaching, Pastor Prince encouraged us to look to the Lord instead of looking to ourselves.

Throughout the day, my symptoms continued and I even started to feel my body temperature rising, but as long as the symptoms continued, I kept whispering to myself, “Praise the Lord for He is good.”

Friends from NCC came to see off us at the airport and they prayed for us. Shortly after we entered the departure gate, I suddenly realised I had no more nausea, stomach cramps or pain. In fact, I had a very good flight back to Japan that night.

Praise the Lord for He is good! I did absolutely nothing. JESUS is my healer.

I continue to believe that Jesus will grant my three prayer requests for 2013.

Healed of Kidney Condition

In September 2002, I was diagnosed with lupus, an autoimmune disease, and in April 2011 I was diagnosed with kidney failure due to my lupus condition. I was advised to take medicine which was very expensive, amounting to a large sum each month. 

I persisted with the drugs, but after a year, my condition didn’t seem to be improving and I suffered many side effects including unsightly hair growth on my hands, legs and upper lip. I also suffered from irritable bowel syndrome; at times it was so bad I would have diarrhoea in the middle of the night. I also suffered memory loss, so I stopped taking the medicine. 

In October 2011, I started to attend New Creation Church. Gleaning from Pastor Prince’s sermons, I began to partake of the Holy Communion, believing I would be healed of all my diseases. My condition started to improve but I wanted a full remission. So, in July 2012, I asked Jesus to grant me my desire and give me a “surprise” on my birthday. 

When my birthday arrived, I received nothing and was disappointed. But I continued to believe and asked God for a revelation. I started listening to MP3 sermons every night to receive His wholeness, listening to three to four sermons repeatedly. 

In September 2012, I went for a check-up and was disappointed by the test results again. As I stood outside the doctor's room, I declared that I had a faithful God who keeps His promises and I shall be completely healed from kidney disease at my next medical review. 

Just a week before my next review, the Lord gave me a word during praise and worship to assure me that I shall receive wholeness as He had promised. And at the review in November 2012, the doctor told me my kidneys were functioning normally! I am normal! I received a “surprise” gift from God after all! All glory to God! 

I want to thank Jesus for healing me and thank you Pastor Prince for your sermons. 

I am indeed super blessed!

Healed by His Rivers of Living Water

I quit my job in 2009 as I felt the prompting of God to do so. It was only after I stopped working that I realised my health had been affected by the stress I faced.

I started seeing a gynaecologist for irregular and heavy menstrual flows. My tummy felt uncomfortable, I had hot flushes in the middle of the night and mood swings.

After six months, there was still no improvement in my cycle, so I switched to another gynaecologist. The doctor’s diagnosis was hormonal imbalance. The two years that followed consisted of regular visits to the clinic, a blood test every few months and daily oral medication.

Sometime in the beginning of 2012, my blood test results showed that my condition had worsened and I was given additional medication. Remembering to take my medication regularly was a chore. At one point, I felt I had developed a certain dependency on the medication, so much that whenever I missed a dose, I became insecure and worried.

Although ultrasound scans showed nothing wrong with my womb, blood tests continued to show poor results. As a result, the doctor increased my dose of medication to the maximum. In August 2012, I missed my menstruation after failing to take my medication regularly. I became frustrated and helpless.

Then, I remembered Pastor Prince's teachings on John 7:38 and decided to stop all medication and simply trust in God. Every morning, I laid my hands on my womb and declared that rivers of living water would flow.

As I waited for my menstruation, I felt anxious, but was again reminded by Pastor Prince's teachings that we have already received healing at the cross and that the symptoms in our bodies would have to align with God’s Word.

I clung on to Isaiah 53 believing that Jesus has borne all my diseases at the cross and by His stripes, I am healed. In September 2012, my menstruation returned and it was normal. Though I was elated, I continued to worry if it was indeed back to normal.

My menstruation continued to be normal the following month. Hallelujah! Praise Jesus and His finished work! Recently, I went for another blood test and the doctor confirmed that my hormones are now within a healthy range! I am healed and whole.

Thank You Daddy God, and thank you Pastor Prince for being His wonderful messenger!

Cyst Disappeared After Feeding on Jesus

In June this year, my husband and I got married, and we were eager to start a family. Our care group members stood in faith with us and prayed for fruitfulness in that area. A few days later, I began to experience symptoms in my body and thought that I was pregnant.

After seeing my gynecologist, the doctor diagnosed a cyst in my left ovaries. I was devastated! I questioned the Lord and wondered what happened to 2012 being a year of fruitfulness. In addition, I was supposed to visit the United States for my second honeymoon, but the doctor advised us to forgo the trip.

Then, I recalled Pastor Prince reminding us to “see the opposite” of what the devil was doing, and to expect God’s grace to superabound in that area instead. That week, I continued to partake of the Holy Communion and my husband anointed me with the anointing oil. We also declared healing over my body.

Each time fear overwhelmed me, I would also proclaim my righteous standing in Christ. I kept singing praises to Him, and was very encouraged after reading a testimony on the church’s website about a sister who was healed of ovarian cyst too.

During a follow-up scan a week later, the doctor announced that the cyst had disappeared. I did not believe him at first and requested for another scan of my lower abdomen. The cyst was nowhere to be found!

Since then, I can now see my Abba's heart for us more clearly. It is never about my faithfulness but all about His grace and Jesus’ faithfulness on the cross! I am also able to go for my second honeymoon and look forward to the trip!

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for sharing on the gospel of grace time and time again. Truly when heat comes, our leaves shall not wither but flourish! Today, I am happily waiting for my restoration in the areas of fruitfulness, health and shalom! Amen!

Renewal of Strength

I want to thank God for what He has done in my life and to share my testimony. I resigned from my job this year and there were many times I felt frustrated for wasting time and money.  

However, I began feeding on the Word more intently, which includes listening to Pastor Prince via the Grace Capsule and also reading various books. Slowly, I learnt to relax, rest in Him and enjoy my quiet time with the Lord. Earlier this year, I even started partaking of the Holy Communion every day.

On a recent trip overseas, people around me were down with flu and fever, but I didn't get any symptoms. However, after returning home, I was struck down with a virus. I was informed that four of my companions contracted malaria after I departed. So I went to see my doctor as I was worried that it might be malaria. During my check-up, the doctor said it was only a sinus infection but I was to monitor my temperature every day.

There were times I felt feverish, but after partaking of the Holy Communion, the fever subsided. One night my fever seemed persistent, I was fearful and worried that it might be the onset of malaria. But God reminded me of how He heals and I felt His warm love and the fever once again subsided. This was the first time in 20 years of being a Christian that I experienced healing just by knowing His love for me!

I also went for a job interview — the only one I had in two months! It was a job I always wanted as a security police officer. However, before we were admitted for training, we were told to inform them of any old injury. Unfortunately, I had a ligament tear in my left leg many years ago and have stopped running since. I postponed the training to practice running and build up my stamina. Although it was still painful when I ran, I trusted God that I had already been healed.

Unfortunately, one week before my trial test, I sustained a muscle pull in my left thigh and couldn't continue with the trial. I reported in sick and rested for the whole week. However, I felt God telling me not to depend on myself but to rest in His grace.

During this time, I was encouraged by the testimony I heard in church service from a primary school student who had shared about how God helped him pass his 1.6km run. The boy even emerged as one of the top three in his cohort! What God could do for him, He can do for me too! Thank God! God not only helped me pass but also enabled me to finish with a score for silver, just two seconds short of gold! I'm also the oldest in the squad and yet they thought I was in my mid-20s!

Praise the Lord for keeping me strong, healthy and young! Last of all, I thank God for helping me pass all my tests when I had no confidence at all! I know I can't, but with Him, I can! Truly, His grace is sufficient for me and His power is made perfect in my weaknesses.

Black Dots in Eye Gone After Communion

Pastor Prince, I have been a born-again Christian since 11 March 1977. Ever since I watched your broadcasts, I have been hungering for God’s Word like never before.

One day, I was at work when my right eye went all blurry and I started seeing thousands of “black dots”! After work, I rushed down to see my eye doctor, and he said that I needed to have emergency eye surgery.

As I have read your book on the Holy Communion before, I told my doctor that I wanted to wait and declined immediate surgery. I decided to partake of the Holy Communion two to three times a day, and put my trust in Jesus for my healing.

Not long after, I went back to the doctor for another check-up, and a specialist came to have a look at my eye. This time, he found zero black spots! Praise God! The Lord Jesus is so good!

Since then, my wife, Patti, and I have shared this experience with many people. We partake of the Holy Communion almost every day, and we have never gotten sick ever since we started doing this two and a half years ago. Praise the Lord!

Baby Healed of Stridor Croup

Our eight-month-old baby, Noah, was admitted to the hospital on Saturday because of Stridor Croup (an infection of the breathing passages). He was discharged on Sunday and we were very relieved!

The next day, he developed a high fever. I administered his medication, and my husband and I refused to be worried that his viral infection had relapsed. As we took care of Noah, we decided to keep our eyes on Jesus and watched Pastor Prince’s Lakewood sermon on the Internet.

In Pastor Prince’s sermon, he shared about his daughter Jessica's illness when she was a baby. He shared that he had prayed to Jesus after doctors couldn't figure out what was wrong, and how Jessica was healed by the Lord eventually.

While we have heard him share this incident many times before, it impacted us greatly as it was what we needed to hear that day. We believed that Daddy God knew what we needed and that this was no coincidence at all!

As we listened to Pastor Prince, my husband and I agreed in prayer that as Christ is, so are our kids in this world. Through Jesus’ finished work on the cross and His amazing grace, Noah's fever that persisted for over three hours finally broke! We finished watching the sermon and praised Jesus as we experienced our little miracle.

Looking back, we were so ministered to by Jesus’ perfect timing. Pastor Prince could have preached about anything, and we could have played another sermon that night, but Jesus’ timing is always “perfectly perfect”! It didn’t matter if I was watching the sermon in Lakewood or via the Internet because His Word is living and ministers to us each time we hear it.

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for allowing the Lord to use you. May He continue to bless you, your family and your ministry! Amen!

No Traces of Cancer

On 17 February 2012, I experienced severe pain in my lower abdomen. This was not the first time I experienced pain in my abdomen, but it was the worst pain I had encountered so far. The pain also did not go away with painkillers. By afternoon, I could not stand straight and had to drag myself to a clinic.

When I saw the doctor, she asked me about my symptoms and suspected that I had colorectal cancer. All the symptoms that I mentioned were “spot on” in her checklist, and she insisted that I go for a colonoscopy and gastroscopy procedure.  Fear gripped me and I was devastated.

Two days later, I was on my way to church when I cried out to God and asked for a “sign” and for “extra love” that Sunday.

During praise and worship, I could feel Jesus’ embrace, love and peace. I was also overjoyed when Pastor Prince led the church into a time of ministering!

He asked the congregation to stand up, and to put our hands on our afflicted areas as he prayed for Jesus’ anointed healing. I almost choked with joy and placed my hand on my lower abdomen. But God did not just answer my prayers. Instead, He over-exceeded what I asked for and Pastor Prince went on to pray for “healing of cancer”!

I felt tremendous peace in my heart and the pain in my abdomen went away! Over the next few days, I remembered Pastor Prince’s teaching on meditation, and started to meditate on Jesus’ love for me, and how the Jesus who saved me in the past is the same Jesus yesterday, today and tomorrow. I also anointed my lower abdomen every morning, and partook of the Holy Communion daily with my family.

By God’s grace, the colonoscopy procedure went smoothly and the senior specialist found no trace of polyp. He declared that my colon and stomach were in healthy condition and could not explain why this was so!

There is no logical explanation to this except that Jesus has healed me! All praise and glory to Jesus as His love is so unconditional and faithful. Nothing is too big or too small to Him.

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for preaching the true gospel of Jesus!

Healed from Past Emotional Hurts

Pastor Prince, I was attending Sunday service at Gallery West in 2008, when I suddenly noticed that your face looked glorious on the screen. I said to myself that I wanted the Lord’s glory to shine on my face too! From that day onwards, I started to pray in tongues and meditate on Scripture verses that speak to me.

About a month ago, I had a heated argument with my husband. In the past, I would nurse and rehearse all my past hurts and get bitter towards him. Although I always felt condemned and wanted to forgive him, I could never let go! This time, however, I was surprised that I couldn’t remember a single hurt that had happened between us! Immediately, I knew that I was healed from past emotional hurts in my marriage.

A few weeks later, the first thought that hit me when I woke up, was the memory of my late mother who had physically and verbally abused me. When I was a teen, I had confronted her about this, and she told me that she would vent her anger on me whenever her own mother scolded her.

My tears flowed at this memory and I got up to worship the Lord. I know the Lord was healing my broken heart. Since then, I have been receiving fresh revelations of God’s grace and Jesus’ awesome love for me every day. Today, I am completely whole and healed!

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for helping me to be more than a conqueror in life through your preaching. Thank You, Jesus, for dying for me on the cross! No other king would, and no words can express my gratitude for the healing that has taken place in my life!

Stronger and Younger by Grace!

My wife and I are in our late 60s and we never thought that we would live to see the year 2011.

I was diagnosed with diabetes, high blood pressure, and high cholesterol since the mid-1990s. In April last year, my wife suffered a mild stroke. Over the next few months, she started having dizzy spells and was unable to stand or walk. She also suffered from migraine and nausea.

Although we have been believers for many years, we were taught a mixture of “law and grace” and struggled in our faith walk. I thought we didn’t qualify for God’s healing. While my wife and I prayed, we didn’t pray with much hope, as we thought that we had brought ill health upon ourselves. Those were very dark days and I even prepared my own obituary!

When a friend told us about Pastor Prince’s broadcast ministry, I started tuning in. I didn’t really care for the program but my wife and I tuned in again and again. Soon, we learnt about the significance of partaking of the Holy Communion, and about what it means to discern the Lord’s body. We were hooked and started sharing this message of grace to our family, friends and even strangers!

We are so blessed to be seated in the “American overflow room” of New Creation Church. We partake of the Holy Communion together, sometimes twice daily. Today, we are alive, well, and growing stronger (and younger) as we become more rooted and grounded in God’s love and grace.

Thank you Pastor Prince for obeying God, and for unveiling Jesus to us! We will continue participating from the “American overflow room” as you expound on God’s love and grace to us.

Healed and So Loved!

On 17 July 2011, my family and I attended the second service at Gallery West. Towards the end of the song item, I told my husband that we should leave the service earlier so as to avoid the crowd while picking our children from Rock Kidz.

My husband felt that we should stay until the end of service and receive Pastor Prince’s prayer of blessing. I was hesitant, but agreed to stay anyway.

Almost immediately, Pastor Prince shared about how people have received healing after they were prayed for at the end of the service. I started crying because I finally understood how much this meant to my husband. I also felt as if Daddy God had put His arm around my shoulders, asking me for more time to allow Him to love and bless me. Words cannot describe how I felt at that point. All I could do was cry.

After Pastor Prince pronounced God’s blessing over us, I remember receiving that blessing and thanking Daddy God for complete healing. I had been feeling pain in both knees for the past few months, and was having trouble exercising or even climbing the stairs.

When I got home, I suddenly realised that the pain was gone! In fact, I jogged and ran the next morning with absolute ease and no pain at all. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for always pointing us to Jesus!

Aunt’s Supernatural Healing and Salvation

My aunt, who has a history of kidney failure, was recently admitted to hospital. She was diagnosed with two tumours — one in the liver, and another in the intestine.

After we heard the news, my mum, brother and I decided to visit her after church one Sunday. That same Sunday, I felt my hand “burning” from the inside. The “burning sensation” began right after praise and worship and lasted throughout the service. It didn’t go away until we visited my aunt.

Coincidentally, Pastor Prince was also preaching about the gift of healing that day, and this was a confirmation to me that the Lord wanted to heal my aunt.

The Lord really prepared everything for us. When we reached the hospital, she was all alone in a ward. The Lord had provided such a quiet and peaceful environment for us to talk to her about Christ! Before we left, I laid hands on my aunt, and put my hands where the 4cm tumour in the liver was found.

The next day, my aunt underwent a scope test and the tumour in her liver had been reduced to white spots! Praise the Lord!

Besides God’s healing, my aunt’s heart also became more open to the Lord. When my DARE leaders visited my aunt a few days later, my aunt accepted Jesus! The day after accepting Jesus, she underwent an operation to have the second intestinal tumour removed. The doctors expected the operation to be complicated and risky because of her history of kidney failure, but the operation was smooth and the doctors said my aunt is recovering well!

Till today, doctors cannot explain what happened to her liver, but my family knows the answer! Our Saviour, Jesus, didn't just stop at healing one tumour, but went all out to ensure that my aunt goes through a smooth operation even before she was a believer! I believe cancer cannot plague my aunt anymore because of my awesome Saviour! All glory and honour to Jesus!

Baby Healed of Lung Cyst

When my wife Cheryl was five months pregnant, the doctor detected an abnormal lung cyst in our baby’s right lung. It was very serious as the cyst was so large that it compressed our baby girl’s lung tissue and it was pushing her heart to the left side of her body. The cyst was also pressing against her left lung.

We were then referred to another doctor for a second opinion. Both doctors recommended that Cheryl undergo a procedure to insert a needle into her uterus to deflate the cyst in our baby’s lung. However, they could not be sure if the cyst would grow again or what would happen when the baby is born. There was also a risk of miscarriage. It was not an easy decision to make, but we went ahead with the procedure after we had prayed and sensed God’s peace to do so.

After the procedure, the cyst deflated a little but was still present. Cheryl had to go for weekly scans to monitor our baby’s development. The doctors cautioned that our baby may need to be in an Intensive Care Unit if she had respiratory problems at birth.

Throughout this time, we partook of the Holy Communion daily and applied the anointing oil, believing that our baby will be normal at birth, for Jesus came to give us abundant life and no weapon formed against us shall prosper.

Miraculously, our daughter Josephine was born at 38 weeks and she came out with a mighty cry! She did not need any special treatment or breathing assistance even though the doctors had the equipment on standby. Her lungs functioned normally and subsequent X-rays and ultrasound scans revealed that there was no trace of the cyst! Josephine is now a one and a half years old, healthy and she has been a joy and blessing to us.

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your teachings on how God’s grace is sufficient for us. Great is our God and all glory to Jesus!

A Healing Touch of His Presence

I started listening to Pastor Prince’s messages In January 2010. I was very blessed by the good news so I bought many sermon CDs and DVDs online. I also bought New Creation Church’s worship albums such as A Touch Of His Presence, You Alone I Praise and I See Grace. I also read Pastor Prince’s book Destined To Reign daily. All these strengthened my faith a lot and my life was changed.

I am 62 years old. Whenever the devil tries to attack me with symptoms of diseases, I would listen to the worship albums and worship Jesus, my Lord, my Saviour and my Redeemer. I would also often partake of the Holy Communion while listening to the worship songs. After a few minutes, all the symptoms would disappear!

After experiencing these miracles, I began to take the worship songs to the aged home that I work in. At this home, there would be elderly who would cry the whole night. No medicine could help them and one could hear them crying from 8pm to 6am. I work the night shift so one night in May 2010, I put the CD player at the corridor of the elderly’s rooms and played the CD, A Touch Of His Presence. That night, no elderly cried. They were all quiet and could sleep peacefully.

There is also a lady at the home who is suffering from schizophrenia. One night, she kept speaking loudly to herself. Her neighbour, a lady with dementia, was singing shrilly. I took my iPod and played the songs from A Touch Of His Presence to them. After three minutes, both women fell into deep sleep. My two colleagues who were with me were astonished by what they had witnessed and they asked to have a CD player in the women’s room, so both ladies can listen to the worship songs. Till now, the elderly no longer cry themselves to sleep at night.

As for me, I have been listening to the worship songs in my iPod during my break at work and every time, the glory of God would come to the aged home and bless the old people. All praises to Jesus!

Surgery No Longer Needed for Son’s Scoliosis

In August 2008, my son was diagnosed with scoliosis, a curvature of his lower spine. He was 15 years old at that time. The specialist he was referred to advised us to make a special brace for him, which he needed to wear daily, 24 hours a day, until he turned 18 years old. That is the age when his skeletal growth would be matured.

Putting on the brace would not reduce the degree of curvature he already had, but it would help to halt the progression of the curve. However, my son found wearing the brace very uncomfortable so he only wore it at night.

In May 2009, my son went through a medical review. An X-ray of his spine was taken which showed that his curvature was at 33 degrees. The doctor advised him to continue wearing the brace. Half a year later, another X-ray was taken and this time round, the curvature was at 43 degrees. The doctor told me that surgery would be necessary if the curvature reached 45 degrees and above. I was worried as my son’s spine was just two degrees away from 45 degrees.

After that appointment, my son did not want to wear the brace anymore. Instead, we believed that Jesus, our Lord and Saviour, has borne and healed his condition. Every night, I would apply the anointing oil on him and pray for healing. Two weeks before my son’s next medical review, we started to partake of the Holy Communion daily.

In May 2010, half a year after his last medical review, an X-ray was taken and it showed that the curvature was reduced to 35 degrees. The moment I heard this, I shouted, “Hallelujah! Thank You, Lord Jesus!” The doctor initially thought that he had taken the wrong X-ray film. After looking through all my son’s previous X-ray films, he confirmed that the curvature of my son’s spine was indeed reduced to 35 degrees. What’s more, the doctor said that as my son’s skeletal growth was already stable, he did not need to wear the brace anymore. All praise, glory and honour to Jesus, hallelujah!

Mother’s Rapid Recovery from a Heart Attack

On 5 October 2009, my mother suffered a heart attack while we were on a holiday in Tokyo. We were at a train station when my mother suddenly collapsed on the ground, convulsing and foaming in her mouth.

An ambulance arrived shortly after and we were brought to the nearest hospital. At the hospital, the doctor informed us that a heart attack had caused our mother to lose her consciousness, heartbeat and respiration. He said that although her heartbeat was subsequently restored, she fell into a coma with no spontaneous respiration and no confirmation that she would ever regain consciousness. He explained that the situation was grave and told us to inform our family members to come over to Tokyo as soon as possible.

As the hospital was full, my mother was transferred to another hospital. There, the doctor informed me that three of my mother’s primary heart arteries were blocked. He explained that even if she were to regain consciousness, she would still need a bypass surgery to mend her heart.

That day, I informed my sisters in Singapore about my mother’s condition. Teacher Ronnie from Rock Kidz, who came to know of our situation, prayed and led us in partaking of the Holy Communion over a conference call. My sisters both flew in on the next available flight. Over the next few days, we prayed in tongues continually, partook of the Holy Communion as a family and anointed my mother’s ICU room with the anointing oil. We would read Pastor Prince’s daily devotional, listen to his messages and New Creation Church’s songs daily. These were our spiritual food which encouraged and strengthened us emotionally, mentally and physically. We were in a foreign country with no knowledge of the Japanese medical system and Jesus was our very present help in time of need.

Three days after my mother’s heart attack, she woke up from her coma! A CT scan revealed that there was no damage to her brain. What a miracle! The medical team was surprised and one of the doctors even said, “Your God saved you.” We were advised to go ahead with my mother’s bypass operation. The night before the operation, we anointed the four corners of the hospital block with oil and proclaimed my mother’s complete healing.

My mother’s operation was a great success and we flew back to Singapore on her 69th birthday. My mother and I did not used to be regular church goers but since then, we have been attending New Creation Church as a family every Sunday. Thank you, Pastor Prince for your teachings, and New Creation Church’s leaders who prayed with and supported us in our time of need.

Set Her Eyes on Jesus and Experienced Healing

I fell sick last year. At first, I thought I was getting chubby but soon realised that I was not putting on weight but was retaining about one to two kilograms of water every day. People who saw me thought I was suffering from thyroid or some lymphatic problem. My feet ballooned and none of my shoes could fit anymore.

At the same time, perhaps because of stress, I started getting heart palpitations, rashes on my back, hair loss and irregular menstrual cycles. I also had a relapse of my slip disc and was not able to take a step without feeling pain in my leg. Even my eyes became really dry and red. In conclusion, my body was breaking down.

I saw a series of doctors such as heart, kidney, skin specialists and gynaecologists but none could help me. After each medical test, I would pray that the doctor could tell me what was wrong with my body. However, each test result would come out fine. Doctors would tell me that what was happening to me was unusual for my age. This costly and depressing process went on for a few months. I started working from home to avoid meeting people. I felt angry, ugly and guilty every time I looked at myself in the mirror.

Then, a friend gave me a copy of Pastor Prince’s Destined To Reign Devotional. I read it every day and the Word would always bring me comfort to get through the day. After reading the book, I decided to check out New Creation Church. I started attending New Creation Church and the midweek healing services. I was greatly encouraged by Pastor Prince’s teachings on healing. I prayed every day for God’s grace to pour into my life and I would partake of the Holy Communion. When Pastor Prince declared this year to be a year of restful increase, it took a while for the revelation to sink into my heart. But when it finally did, I decided that God was all I needed to be healed. I could just let go and let God handle my condition. I stopped seeing doctors and stopped worrying about how or when I would be healed. Week after week, I just worshipped God and let His Word wash me. I felt this great peace in my heart.

Sure enough, my body received the healing. I have no more rashes or backaches, and my body is back to normal. Friends asked me what healed me but I did not really know how to answer them since the doctors did not know what happened to me in the first place. But I know the healing is from the Lord. God loves me and sees me righteous because of what Jesus had done on the cross. I thank God for the healing and for bringing me to New Creation Church where I am reminded of His love and grace every week.

Healed of a Lump on His Hand

With God all things are possible if you only believe. On 4 June 2010, I discovered a lump on my middle finger that measured 1cm in diameter, near the knuckle of my right hand. It was not painful but it was uncomfortable. Initially, I thought it was just a bump that would go away after a while. Over a week later, it did not get any better.

So, on 14 June 2010, I visited a doctor and he told me that the lump was a ganglion cyst and I would require surgery to remove it. He referred me to an orthopaedic specialist at Changi General Hospital. My appointment was on 7 July 2010.

On 23 June 2010, I attended New Creation Church’s Healing Service and stepped forward to be prayed for. When I was prayed for, I felt a warm sensation all over my body. Nothing happened that night and the lump was still on my hand the next day. I continued to pray by faith and proclaimed my healing to the Lord — that by His stripes, I am healed.

Two days after the Healing Service, while driving to work, I felt prompted to look at my finger. Amazingly, the lump was gone. Hallelujah! I am completely healed by the power of God. All praise, honour and glory to our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ.

Healed of a Locked Shoulder

I had been having a very stiff right shoulder for over 10 years. It would sometimes get locked when turned in certain positions, causing a lot of pain. Sometimes, after sleeping in a certain position for a prolonged period, the shoulder would start to ache and this would cause me to wake up at night.

On 18 May 2010, I slept in one of those wrong positions again and was woken up in the middle of the night by a very sharp pain in my right shoulder. I was feeling very tired and did not want to get up so I just said to the Lord, "Lord, give me a new shoulder." Then, I went back to sleep in the same position.

When I woke up the next morning, I could not believe it. There was no more pain in my right shoulder anymore. I quickly jumped out of bed and started to move my shoulder and arm around in the different positions that I was unable to do before. Praise Jesus, there was no more pain! The shoulder did not get locked too! The Lord really gave me a new shoulder! All glory to Jesus for He hears our prayers and never fails to provide.

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for revealing the heart of Jesus to us. No words can describe how much your ministry has impacted my personal life, marriage, family and career. The truths you share in your messages and the revelations that we have received from the Word are simply amazing!

Healed of an Ovarian Cyst

On 11 December 2009, I went for a pelvic ultrasound scan during a health screening at a hospital. During the check-up, my doctor discovered a cyst, which measured more than 5cm, pressing against my left ovary. She advised me that the usual procedure to remove cysts that were larger than 5cm was by surgery, and referred me to a gynaecologist for further check-up.

I told the Lord that I would trust Him for supernatural healing and that I won’t have to go for surgery. On Sunday, 13 December 2009, I went to the Prayer & Healing Room, where a female leader prayed with me for supernatural healing. Before I went for my second check-up on 17 December 2009, my family and I partook of the Holy Communion together, and they anointed me with the anointing oil.

At my second check-up, the gynaecologist did an ultrasound scan, and found that the cyst was still there. He said that the body may re-absorb it, but if my body did not, it would have to be removed through keyhole surgery. He gave me some materials to read about the surgery and advised me to return for another scan on 30 December 2009.

During this period, negative thoughts ran through my mind. But I thank God that His 
grace is bigger than my worries. I kept listening to sermons, confessing the Word, and praying in tongues to guard my heart from worry and fear.

Towards the end of the Sunday service on 20 December 2009, Pastor Prince prayed for healing. I received my healing by faith and felt my legs tremble. I didn’t really understand what was happening, but I believed that something good had happened to me.

I went back to the gynaecologist on 30 December 2009, forgetting to read the notes on keyhole surgery. Prior to the visit, I just reminded myself not to worry, and to look to Jesus because He will take care of everything. During the ultrasound scan, the gynaecologist discovered that the cyst was gone! He said that it’d “magically disappeared”. I was told that no surgery or medication was needed! I was so thankful that I said “Thank you, Jesus” right in front of him!

Hallelujah, Abba is so, so good! He is so faithful and He never fails! I’m so touched and grateful for what He has done for me. Thank you so much, Lord Jesus! Truly, You are the Lord who heals! And I am so blessed to be in New Creation Church. Thank you so much too, Pastor Prince, for preaching the awesome gospel of Christ which has set me free! God bless you and your family richly!

Speedy Recovery After a Brain Haemorrhage

In October 2009, I was admitted to Tan Tock Seng Hospital because I was having blurred vision and was vomiting. After several scans and tests, the doctors discovered that my brain was haemorrhaging severely and immediately put me in an Intensive Care Unit (ICU). My doctor said that with the severity of my brain condition, the fact that I could still smile and joke around was in itself a miracle.

My condition was so severe that my name was on a list of names of people who could die anytime! I never knew such a list existed until my name was on it! My family would visit me, pray for me, anoint me with anointing oil, and take Holy Communion with me every day. Pastor Keith Monteiro, my friends from church, Tim, Selene, and my care group leader, Liru, also visited me at the hospital and prayed for me.

One morning, not long after being warded, I fell into a coma. One of the hospital staff tried to wake me up but I couldn't wake up. My brain had swelled and I needed to go for a brain surgery immediately. It was a miracle that they had found me in time. Should they have found me any later, I would have been a vegetable, or even dead.

A few days after the surgery, the doctor wanted me to go for an angiogram. When the doctor told me that I would be awake throughout the whole procedure, I freaked out. I really did not want to go for it and dreaded the day of the angiogram. The day before the procedure, my dad was talking to me by my bedside, together with another man I did not recognise. But there was something about the other man that made me feel very comforted and at peace. My dad told him about my upcoming angiogram and how scared I was. So, the man prayed for me. Right after he prayed, he left.

The next day, I went for the angiogram and it turned out to be less painful than I had expected. In fact, it was less painful than an injection. It was almost painless! I assumed that the man I saw the day before with my father was Pastor Keith, because I knew Pastor Keith had been visiting me. But when Pastor Keith came by to visit me after the angiogram, I found out that the man was not Pastor Keith. I asked my dad about it but my dad said that he never came by to visit me that morning! Since then, we think that the man might have been an angel! It could not have been a dream because I remembered it very vividly, and I never remember my dreams!

Soon after, I was released from the hospital. My doctors were baffled by my speedy recovery and even called it a miracle. All glory to Jesus and praise God for my supernatural healing!

Healed of Pre-Eclampsia

In early November last year, I was admitted to the hospital due to hypertension and was discharged a few days later. I was pregnant with my baby Annika then, and her estimated delivery date was on 9 January 2010. I never had high blood pressure before. On 26 November 2009, I was readmitted to the hospital. During my second stay in the hospital, I was diagnosed with pre-eclampsia — a hypertensive disorder that usually occurs during the last stage of pregnancy.

My blood pressure readings always measured above normal. The doctor had classified me as a high risk patient as I might have a stroke or die any time. So I was admitted to the intensive care unit. Due to this complication, we decided to deliver Annika on 28 November 2009 via a caesarean section.

On 28 November 2009, I safely delivered Annika. But my blood pressure was still higher than normal after delivery. I read and meditated on the Word of God daily, and though the blood pressure readings did not drop, I did not give up. I persisted and trusted the Lord for my healing.

My doctor was surprised that I had no headache, giddiness or tummy pain. I was physically fit and not tired. My blood and urine test results were okay. I was still strong despite having high blood pressure, and the doctors said that they had never encountered such a patient before.

I continued to meditate on the Word and to speak God’s Word over my condition. It was not easy to have faith when I saw that there were no improvements. You could see many insertion marks on my hand due to the injections and blood tests. I also took many pills and could not sleep well as I had to monitor my blood pressure every 15 minutes. It was a painful experience.

Finally, two weeks after delivery, there was a tremendous drop in my blood pressure readings and I no longer required medication. On 1 February 2010, I went for my first check-up, and the gynaecologist declared that my womb, uterus and blood pressure were all perfectly healthy. God is faithful and He never fails. Thank God for His protection over me and Annika. We are both healthy by His grace.

Healed Through the Laying of Hands

I am currently a full-time national serviceman serving in the Army as a medic. On 23 November 2009, I was dispatched to an external camp to provide medical care to some soldiers undergoing training. I was waiting for my superiors to arrive in the office when I heard another solider, who was outside, calling for me. In my haste, I accidentally rammed my head into the door while getting up quickly from my seat. It was really painful.

At first, I thought nothing of it because I had expected the pain to go away after some time. However, the pain persisted throughout the day. In addition, I realised that I had a laceration that caused some bleeding. Even though I held on to the truth that Jesus had taken my pain upon Himself, and that there would not be any further complications, I was bothered that the pain did not subside after two days.

On Wednesday morning (25 November 2009), I decided to see my commander who is a medical officer. Thank God, he did not find anything serious with me, and gave me some medication. However, later that day, I developed a throbbing headache. Then I remembered that the Healing Service was happening that evening. Though one would naturally go home to rest, I decided to put my faith in Jesus who gives me true rest in all my circumstances. As I made my way to the Healing Service, the pain in my head didn’t ebb away. Yet, I knew that the Lord would heal me that night.

Praise God! After a church leader had laid hands on me, I left the service without any more pain in my head! Surely Jesus is the one who has borne my diseases and pain, and He is indeed faithful to heal!

Chronic Back Pain Gone in an Instant

I would like to thank the Lord for healing my lower back during the Healing & Financial Breakthrough Seminar on 12 August 2009.

I had been suffering from spinal pain due to my rugby-playing days in school and years of carrying mortar barrels while I was in National Service. When I finally got an MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) scan in May 2009, I was diagnosed with a degenerative condition where the pads between my vertebrae were thinning earlier than normal. This caused a great deal of discomfort, causing me to slouch constantly to alleviate the pain.

> When Pastor Henry got us to lay hands on our area of affliction, I did so and focused on Jesus for my healing. I felt a warmth spreading over the area and to my amazement, the pain left me. I knew this because I no longer needed to hunch. To think that I went to church expecting just to receive His Word, but came out healed, whole and refreshed! How can I not feel His love for me? How great is our God! Praise be to Jesus!

Received Healing for Her Knee

I would like to share my testimony of how Daddy God has healed me of my knee pain, which I’d had for close to a year now. I started experiencing knee pain after I took up long-distance running a couple of years back. Sometime this year, I was assessed by a sports physician, as well as my physiotherapist friends, who told me I had injured the fibrocartilage in my knee known as the meniscus. They advised me to stop running for a while.

I was upset but I believed in my heart that Daddy would heal me. So, I attended the Healing & Financial Breakthrough Seminar by Pastor Henry. That night, as Pastor prayed over those who wanted healing, I stood strong on the Word and believed that I was healed. Suddenly, I had this vision of Jesus stooping down at my knee, looking up at me (the way a parent would look at a child who has scraped a knee), caressing my left knee and reassuring me that I will be fine.

Although the pain was still there, I knew that I had been healed. Pastor Henry encouraged the congregation, saying that even if we do not experience healing instantaneously, we should continue to trust God for it. That night, before I went to bed, I confessed that I was healed and chose to focus my thoughts on Jesus instead of the pain.

The next morning, as I climbed down from my bed (I sleep on the upper deck of a double-decker bed), I realised that my knee pain was gone! In order to be certain, I had one of my physiotherapist friends reassess me, and this time, with a surprised look, she told me that my knee seemed fine. Hallelujah! I have started training for an upcoming marathon, and there’s no pain at all! All glory to Jesus!

Healed of Rare Skin Condition

I have quite a long history of skin rashes and hives since I was 14 years old. My sister and I also have an unknown skin condition which resembles common rashes. The rashes which are the size of mosquito bites would swell and become lumpy, and were also itchy and painful. It often took weeks for the itch and pain to stop, and for the swelling to subside. The “rashes” would darken to look like bruises, and it took weeks or even months for them to completely disappear.

In September 2009, there was a small red swelling on my thigh. I thought that it was just a mosquito bite, so I didn’t bother much about it. Several days later, there were more swellings on my left hand and toes, and they became itchy every night. I guessed that this was the same unknown rash that I had before, so I started anointing the swellings with the anointing oil.

When I was at work one day, a church friend visited me and shared how he had been blessed in his job, from zero projects in the month to a fully packed schedule, after partaking of the Holy Communion every day. He reminded me to partake of the Holy Communion daily to enjoy God’s blessings, be it for my healing or work.

That night, I partook of the Holy Communion before I went to bed. The next day, I continued partaking of the Holy Communion before I headed for work. By this time, the swelling on my thigh was as big as my palm. I panicked and went to see a GP (general practitioner). The GP diagnosed my condition as erythema nodosum, and prescribed me painkillers and anti-itch pills. I requested for a cream to prevent the darkening of the skin when it healed, but the GP replied that there was no such medication.

Though I was upset, I continued partaking of the Holy Communion, applied the anointing oil, and prayed for the itch and pain to go away. The following day, the itch and pain stopped but the swellings were still there. On the second day, all the swellings disappeared without any dark marks! Praise Jesus!

I had prayed daily for the itch and pain to stop, but our Lord Jesus Christ healed me beyond what I had asked for!

Recently, my sister, who is affected with the same condition, asked me what I used to prevent the darkening. I replied nothing except Jesus’ broken body and blood. She is a non-believer and was definitely astounded by my answer. I thank our Lord Jesus for the abundance of grace that He has showered on me. All glory to Him!

Restful Increase in Career, Finances and Family

At the beginning of 2009, Pastor Prince shared that it was the dektos year. With that in mind, I started to believe that God would provide the finances and give me time away from work to be able to visit Israel (the holy land that I had a deep desire to visit) at the end of the year. Praise God! Abba provided, and my family and I went to Israel in December 2009! Towards the end of that trip, our tour leader asked if anyone wanted to visit Israel again next year. We proclaimed, “We’ll be back by God’s provision! Amen.”

I used to think that I have to meet a certain performance level to deserve all the good things from God. But now I know that God is eager to give and He does not withhold any of His blessings from His children. God’s blessings continued to pour on me and 2010 is indeed a year of restful increase. God gave me unmerited favour at my workplace with my colleagues and continues to do so. Despite what others of the world are facing like stress, severance etc., I am experiencing the opposite. I received a promotion with pay increment! All praise to my Abba! With the additional finances from God, we can now go to Israel again with more family members this year! Abba truly provides exceedingly above all that we ask!

That is not all. I used to agree with the world that childhood myopia will worsen each year. But once I knew that we are already complete in Christ, I refused to stand in agreement with the world’s opinion on my child’s eyesight. I believed that by His stripes, my child is already healed. So my child and I confessed daily that as Christ is, so are we in this world. At an eye check-up this year, not only did my child have no increase in myopia, but he also had a slight improvement in the left eye! We believe that restoration has started and will continue simply because we are healed by His stripes!

Meditation Freed Her from Depression

I live in the Bronx, New York. I was raised as a Christian, but I had “lost my faith” along the way. Over the years, I also suffered from anxiety and depression, which led me to see a psychiatrist and psychologist.

All in all, I had to take a total of four pills to treat my anxieties and depression. In November 2008, I had a nervous breakdown and grew afraid of many things. I could not even get on the subway and avoided going to the stores.

By the grace of God, I chanced upon Pastor Prince’s broadcast on television. I bought an MP3 player, and put all of Pastor Prince’s sermons inside. I started to read the Bible in a fresh new way, and meditated on Destined To Reign!

I also want to thank Pastor Prince for reminding us to meditate on God's Word! In one of Pastor Prince’s sermons, he shared how believers can meditate their way out of a problem and into healing, joy and life. Whenever the stress of work got to me, I would meditate on Psalm 23. And miraculously, the stress would go away! How awesome!

God’s Word is the only pill I need to take and the only “side effects” it gives is tranquillity, peace and joy!

Today, I surround myself with the Word of God which is the fountain of my life. I also share the good news with my co-workers and the Lord is doing wonderful things around me! I know that there is no more condemnation for I am not under the law, but under grace. Amen!

Jesus Is Not Limited by Language!

In January 2011, my mother was diagnosed with a rare type of lung cancer. A major operation was inevitable, and we were all greatly affected.

Being the only Christian in the family, my sister asked me to pray for my mother. I found it very challenging to pray with my mother in Mandarin, so I used simple words and the anointing oil.

My husband and I also introduced Jesus and His love to my mother. We shared with her about the significance of the Holy Communion, and trusted that Daddy God would stir her desire to partake of the elements.

We also continued to share healing testimonies with my mother because she didn’t want to undergo the operation. When I felt that I had no more testimonies left, I would cry to Jesus and ask Him to take over. The very next day, my mother told me all about a healing testimony that she had heard from a neighbour. We were just overwhelmed by God’s love!

Soon, my mother started partaking of the Holy Communion by herself, and began praying and talking to Jesus. She finally agreed to the operation, and continually confessed that Jesus would not allow bad things to happen to her.

The day before the operation, my husband and I laid hands on my mother, and prayed that Jesus will guide the hands of the surgeon and even renew her youth. When my mother came out of the operating theatre, my sister and I rushed to the intensive care unit (ICU), and were dumbfounded by what we saw. Despite having undergone a major operation to remove her right lung, my 62-year-old mother looked radiant. Even the nurses and doctors were amazed!

My mother was discharged four days later and no additional treatment is required. On top of that, the Lord settled the hospital bills through an insurance company, and my mother has since accepted Christ!

Though my Mandarin may not be fluent, Jesus is not limited by my lack of vocabulary or terminology. My mother now attends the Mandarin service and is also actively attending care group! All glory to Jesus!

Set Free from Depression

Before I came to New Creation Church, I always believed that I had to do good to please God. I made it a point to confess my sins constantly and this made me very self-conscious and sin-conscious.

I was also very insecure as a teenager and would be affected by the comments and jokes that my friends made about me. I was depressed about my appearance, and even pestered my father to let me undergo cosmetic surgery.

Soon, my school work suffered and I was rejected by all the local universities. I felt extremely lousy about myself, was suicidal and started developing an eating disorder.

By God's grace, I managed to enter one of the local universities. But the depression continued and I failed my subjects to the point that I was afraid of getting expelled. During a visit to the psychiatrist, she merely scolded me and gave me some medication. I did not return after that first visit.

However, things began to turn around after I started attending New Creation Church. Every week, the sermons reminded me that I am God’s beloved and righteousness in Christ.

Miraculously, my eating disorder disappeared and I was less troubled about my weight without realising it. I've also learnt so much about the grace of God, faith, and hope from this church. Every day, I claim God's blessings over my studies and my future career.

Today, I am happy to announce that I have graduated with honours, and I have been offered a wonderful position in an industry that I am passionate about! Thank you Pastor Prince for preaching the gospel and for revealing the beauty and loveliness of Jesus to us! All praise and glory to Jesus!

Life Transformed and Set Free from Depression

I had clinical depression and was on anti-depressant medication in mid-2009. The medicine was only able to relieve my symptoms temporarily and in September 2009, I suffered a relapse.

This drove me to seek other forms of help apart from medication so I came to New Creation Church in January 2010. It was Pastor Prince’s first service of the year and miraculously, even though I was a stubborn “free thinker” since young, I accepted Christ that day. I began to experience God’s amazing grace in my life. Whenever I felt down, my loving Abba Father would save me from the depths of my sorrows. Pastor Prince’s sermons certainly helped me to know God. I believed with my heart and soul that I am indeed a new creation in Christ, and that I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.

Nine months later, I was completely set free from depression and medication. I am now peaceful and joyful every day. My mother also accepted Jesus as her Lord and Saviour in September 2010. That same month, I was water baptised at YWCA with other New Creation Church members.

Thank you, Pastor Prince and New Creation Church, for helping me out of my depression and more importantly, to know our heavenly Father and Lord Jesus!

Praying in Tongues Changed My Life

In 1995, I became addicted to sleeping pills after my doctor prescribed it to me without my knowledge. Around that time, I was retrenched and could not find a permanent job. Without a proper income, I was unable to provide well for my family and it stressed me out.

Then, I suffered from such bad sinusitis that mucus was trapped behind my cheekbone and I couldn't clear it myself. I had three operations but it didn’t get better, and my left cheek became constantly infected instead. For years, I had to take expensive antibiotics to clear the infection and visit the hospital regularly to “flush out” the mucus.

Due to the antibiotics I was taking, I started suffering from gastritis. My stress level increased and I simply couldn't sleep naturally. It was a vicious cycle. A psychiatrist said I had depression and stress, and gave me more pills.

Every day, I was taking up to 30 tablets for depression, stress, gastric pain, infection, sleep... I think my whole system was upside down with all the medication. At that point, with three sleeping pills, I could only sleep at most two hours, after which I would wake up and not be able to go back to sleep. I ended up popping six pills every night. Being broke, I went into a construction business hoping that the situation would improve. It didn’t. There were sales but I had problems collecting payments. At times, I really wished I would die in my sleep.

I started having panic attacks. When it happened, I couldn't leave the house, couldn’t drive, couldn’t do anything, and my wife at times would have to stay home to look after me. I was in such a bad condition that I just didn’t know how to live my life. I even gained weight although I was not eating well. I ballooned from 46kg to 56kg and my waist went from 28 to 34 inches.

Then, in April 2003, I felt the Lord telling me to just speak in tongues. I didn’t feel any major change or anything initially. But when I prayed in tongues, I felt peace. When I had a panic attack, instead of taking a pill, I started to pray in tongues and listen to Pastor Prince's message tapes. The resulting peace I felt would take the panic away.

After praying in tongues regularly for two months, I was healed of my sinus and gastric problems. I was jobless then and praying a lot, as long as I could remember to pray. Around that time, Pastor Prince preached on spiritual warfare and said that in a major battle, it’s good to pray in tongues, and I continued to pray and pray and pray.

In May, I felt the Lord telling me to start a business doing what I loved, which was to repair computers. There was already a deluge of computer repair businesses out there, but I obeyed the prompting nonetheless. Amazingly, the finances started coming in and I’m now able to provide for my family. I also felt God instruct me to take only two meals a day and enjoy whatever food I wanted for those meals. I did and my weight started dropping! In September, my waist was back to 28 inches and I weighed 46kg.

Around the same time, the Lord told me not to buy any more sleeping pills and said that He would enable me to sleep. In October, when I had no more pills, I told the Lord, “I depend on You now.”

That night, a Sunday, I couldn’t sleep and started praying in tongues. The hours passed — 1am, 2am, 3am, and I still couldn’t sleep. I ended up praying in tongues the whole night. On Monday night, I prayed in tongues till 2am and slept for an hour, an hour of good quality sleep! I continued praying in tongues. On Tuesday, I slept blissfully for two hours; on Wednesday, three hours; Thursday, four hours; and Friday, five hours — all without any pills.

God delivered me in five days from an addiction of nine years! No one else could have done it. Now, my wife says that she has found a new husband and my three children say they have found a new papa. Glory to the Lord!

Father Saved and Eyesight Did Not Deteriorate

A few years ago, my dad went for a cataract surgery. Though, he regained his eyesight right after the operation, it didn’t last for long. Soon, his vision started to go blurry.

I brought him to the doctor who said he needed an injection to clear away the fluid in his right eye. Unfortunately, the first injection didn't work and doctor said my dad needed a few more injections to see results. The treatment went on for a few months. All in all, my dad went through around eight to 10 eye injections but his vision only went from bad to worse. 

Previously, his vision was only blurry but after the treatment, he couldn’t even see the red dot on the CD player. To make matters worse, the doctor could only recommend more injections!

Traumatised and disappointed by the results of the procedure, my dad refused to go on with his treatments. I respected his views and shared his sentiments. 

Finally, I plucked up my courage and said to my dad, “Dad, looks like this doctor cannot help you but I know of one Doctor who can help you and His name is Jesus.”

I started to share about Jesus with him and he listened attentively. Finally, I led him to say the salvation prayer to receive Jesus as his Lord and Saviour.  I told him he has become a child of God and Jesus lives in his heart. I also shared with him the testimonies I had heard about partaking of the Holy Communion every day. 

My dad was excited and started doing what I told him to do. I encouraged him to talk to Jesus every day and he did!  Praise the Lord! 

Recently, my dad went for his eye check-up and the results showed that both his eyes had not deteriorated since the last visit! Hallelujah!

Blood Glucose Level Back to Normal

I had diabetes for 23 years. During this period of time, I was put on medication and had to take insulin jabs regularly. In the beginning of the year, I started booking seats to attend services at The Star Performing Arts Centre using NCC’s Online Access Hub (NOAH). One particular day, while I was trying to log into the system, the words “Care Group” jumped out at me.

I decided to click on the Care Group page and something prompted me to join a care group. So I did just that and in less than 10 minutes, the care group leader replied me! Before long, I went for my first care group meeting and while I was there, I requested for the group to pray for my diabetic reading to drop from 13 to 5 millimoles.

In June 2013, I went to the specialist again. This time round, I went there with an attitude that I was already healed in the name of Jesus. The reading turned out to be 5.7 millimoles which was the targeted level!

The specialist then called the dietician and care manager into the room, announcing that I was the only patient in his care to achieve a normal blood glucose level all these years!

He then asked me how I did it, and I pointed my finger upwards and smiled. The dietician and care manager then brightened their eyes and shouted, "Praise the Lord!"

I was so happy that I jumped around the clinic praising the Lord! I knew God was in control and we just have to believe it! I want to thank my care group leader and members who prayed for me, and most importantly, Jesus, who healed me! All praise to Him!

Supernatural Disappearance of Cysts

I would like to share God’s healing upon me. I went to see a gynaecologist after experiencing three months of irregular menstruation.

The ultrasound scan showed two cysts in my right ovary. The doctor prescribed hormone pills to regulate my menstruation and asked me to do another scan in three months’ time. Though she told me that the cysts did not look suspicious, I refused to accept them. I brought the anointing oil to my Care Group meeting and had the leader's wife and a few sisters lay hands on me and we prayed.

Each day, I would make a conscious effort to place my hands over my womb and curse the cysts.

Lately, I started meditating on God’s Word. I believe that the Word would bring supernatural healing to me and my womb would be healthier than before.

Three months down the road, I went back to the gynaecologist and felt an urge to sing the song Glory To The Lamb. The more I sang, the more joyful I became.
Finally, when I went for another scan, the doctor said that all the cysts had disappeared. My womb was restored. Praise the name of Jesus!

Saying “Amen” to Healing

On Sunday, 9 March 2014, I attended the second service. I was actually feeling unwell as I was experiencing a consistent sharp pain at my tailbone area.

The pain was so bad that I had to sit on the edge of my seat from the onset of the sermon. Halfway through Pastor Prince's sermon, I reckoned that I should leave as the excruciating pain was becoming unbearable.

Then, the Holy Spirit reminded me that I was in my Father's house where all fullness including healing dwelled. I recalled Pastor Prince ever mentioned that as the Word goes forth, we should just believe and receive.

Just then, I stood still and as I was praying, Pastor Prince was preaching that God's blessing and healing is for us and we need to just receive by saying “Amen”. He proclaimed Isaiah 53:3 and that by His stripes, we are healed. I immediately said, “Amen” to that and miraculously the pain departed. I experienced God's healing instantaneously. Praise the Lord for He is real and He heals!

I have learnt not to focus and give weight to the pain and to look to Jesus instead. He has made me well and I am complete in Him. Hallelujah! All glory to Jesus!

Healed of Eczema

Around August 2013, I started having eczema on my feet. This continued for about seven to nine months and it became very serious. I wasn’t able to bathe or stand for long because my feet would hurt badly. It was also difficult to sleep at night because of the itch.

I spent a lot of money on treatment but the doctor could only give me medicine to ease my pain. I felt very upset and didn’t feel like going out or attending church because fluid would ooze out of my blisters when I walked, and my socks would be soaked.

At times, I would tell my family that there was no point praying because God was nowhere to be found.

Finally, one day, my husband turned to me and said, “You have been serving in Pastoral Services Ministry for so long and seen people healed after you prayed for them. But why are you talking like that now?”

That was a wake-up call for me. I realised I had been focusing on all the negative things and not praying over my situation. After that conversation, I went back into my room with tears in my eyes and cried out to God. I told Jesus that He is my Healer and despite all the pain I was going through, I called forth healing.

In the next few days, I would partake of the Holy Communion and thank God that Jesus had borne my eczema on His body more than 2,000 years ago. When I showered, I would also declare His healing over my feet.

One week later, something miraculous happened. When I came home from church and removed my socks, I discovered that they were dry and the dead skin had peeled off!

Now, I am totally healed and I can even go for pedicure! Thank You, Jesus!

Instantaneous Healing for Right Knee

In December 2013, I injured my right knee while I was in Penang. It became so swollen that I could hardly walk and climb the stairs. I was also not able to bend my knee as it was stiff and hard.

A few days later, I got back to Singapore and went straight to the acupuncturist for treatment. However, it was useless as the pain and swelling persisted.

As a property sales person, I had to travel a lot to serve my clients. Since I do not drive, my only mode of transport was either the train or the bus. I was limping everywhere I go,  I couldn't climb stairs and had to pull myself up one step at a time by holding on to the railings. Though the pain was still there, I would tell myself as Jesus is, so am I in this world and since Jesus doesn’t have pain in His knee, so am I. I would also declare by faith things like, “by His stripes I am healed" and “I can do all things in Jesus’ name!"

Then, on Sunday, 9 February 2014, my husband I went to church. My husband parked his car in the basement car park and I had to hold on to his hand to make my way into the service venue. Every step was a chore and I would whisper, “In Jesus’ name, I can do it.”

During the service, Pastor Prince led us all in a time of ministering and declared healing to those who were suffering from right knee pain. He encouraged us to place our hand on our afflicted area and so I did.

Subsequently, Pastor Prince told us to move our right knee and I found that I could move and twist it around with no pain! This was something I couldn't do for months! I cried and at the same time, waved my hand to testify of my healing. Praise Jesus!

Son Healed from Eczema

My son, Isaac, started manifesting eczema periodically since he was three months old. Every time when his skin itched, I would rub anointing oil on those areas until the eczema disappeared leaving only one particular spot on his body.

Every night without fail, he would wake up a few times in the night to scratch that same spot on his ankle. Whenever he did that, I would rub anointing oil on his leg and coax him back to sleep.

This same routine went on for months until June 2011. During that time, Isaac was already two and half years old and my family went on a holiday at Port Dickson.

As he was out catching crabs on the beach, I casually mentioned Mark 11:23 to him. I said, "The Bible says you can throw this itchiness on your leg away into the sea and it will not come back to you." In an instant, Isaac replied in chuckles," Haha, then all the crabs will have my eczema!"

As Isaac covered his mouth with both hands laughing at his own words, I was just stunned by his humour and did not give much thought to what he said. That very night, for the first time in more than two years, Isaac did not wake up in the middle of the night complaining about itchiness. The same thing happened on the second night and following our return to Singapore. Isaac is now five and half years old. That stubborn spot of eczema had gone forever since that night in Port Dickson. Praise be to our Lord!

Spontaneous Closure of Hole in Heart

My wife, Monica and I joined New Creation Church in late 2006 after we lost our baby to stillbirth.  In January 2008, God restored our loss with the birth of our son Benjamin.

In early 2010, when Ben was two years old, heart murmur was detected during a doctor visit.  It was diagnosed as "Secundum Atrial Septal Defect" or a hole in the heart.

In the following year, Ben went for his next scan with a medical view that if there were any recovery, it would have been around that age. But the results remained the same.

This continued for the next two years and by this time, we wondered why there was no healing manifestation and whether there was any wrong believing on our part. Showered by the messages of grace from church each week, we continued beholding Jesus and kept hearing and hearing the Word of God.

Though the doctor comforted us that children with a heart defect could still live normally, we refused to accept our lot and kept holding on to our hope in Christ.

In January 2014, Ben experienced a high fever the night before his fifth heart scan. Together as a family, we partook of the Holy Communion and declared that by Jesus' stripes, Ben was healed. 

In the morning, Ben's fever subsided and the doctor decided to go ahead with the scan. During the scan, we proclaimed that as Jesus is with a perfect heart, so is Ben in this world. 

At the end of the visit, the doctor announced that the hole had completely closed and there was no more defect! In his report, he also stated that Ben’s heart defect had undergone a spontaneous closure. Glory to Jesus!

Back Pain Gone After Prayers and Holy Communion

In mid-August 2014, I started experiencing backaches. Thinking that it was nothing unusual, I took some Chinese medicine and pasted a plaster over it. The pain kind of eased off but a week later, I felt a sharp pain in my lower back.

I went to see a Chinese sinseh and had my back rubbed. However, it didn't get any better and the pain continued.

Then at 3am on 31 August, I wanted to use the toilet but could hardly get up from my lying position. It was so painful just trying to sit upright. That was when I realised I had to go to a hospital immediately.

I was admitted to the hospital at 4am and at about 9am, my orthopaedic gave me an anti-swelling jab. The MRI and X-ray results showed a slip disc and early degeneration of my second to fifth lumbar vertebrae. By then, I was not able to walk upright without the aid of a walker. Even before I could walk, I had to stand for a while and let the pain ease off first.

I had to go for physiotherapy twice a day and was given lots of medicine to relieve the pain. In spite of all these, the pain was still there. This continued for the next five days and the pain only managed to ease off when I took the medications. Even performing simple tasks like wearing my shorts or showering myself were frustrating experiences.

On 3 September, a couple from our church came to visit me in the hospital. They broke bread and anointed me with the anointing oil. They also prayed with me and comforted me and my wife with words of encouragement.

On 5 September at about 11am, I suddenly heard a “crack” sound while struggling to lift myself up from a chair. The pain was so unbearable that I could neither sit down nor get up.

I had a painkiller jab at 1.30pm and went to sleep after that. In the evening, while trying to walk to the washroom, I realised I could get up on my own without any pain whatsoever! I could not believe myself and sat down and got up again. I had no more pain!

I was healed instantaneously of a slip disc. I then realised that God had supernaturally shifted my bones back into place. I was discharged the very next day and now I am back to normal. It is such a joy to be able to do simple tasks on my own. Glory to God for His divine healing.

Blessed Survival Despite Being on the Brink of Death Twice

On 22 July 2014, my brother visited my 85-year-old mother early in the morning and found that she was not feeling well. She was admitted to the hospital where her condition deteriorated quickly.

At around noon, she was delirious and her blood pressure was dropping. She was then sent to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) where she was sedated and intubated. The doctors monitored her closely and were ready to resuscitate her anytime.

After an emergency abdominal scan was done, they discovered that gall stones were blocking her bile duct, resulting in infection and septicaemia (toxins in the blood). Both her kidneys had shut down and she was not responding to the strong antibiotics.

We were told that she had to undergo an emergency procedure to clear the blockage. But this procedure could only be performed in another hospital with the right equipment and expertise. However, there was no available beds in that hospital’s ICU. We had to wait and time was definitely not on our side as my mum’s condition was getting worse. We were told to prepare for the worst.

But in less than five minutes, the doctor came in with news that the hospital just had an empty bed. Immediately, we knew that God had helped us while we were at a loss what to do next.

My mum was then transferred to the second hospital. That night, we were told by doctors that they could not proceed with the procedure because my mum’s blood could not clot and she may bleed to death. In the meantime, they transfused blood plasma and platelets into my mum, and continued to give her medications to improve her blood pressure.

The next morning, the specialists proceeded with the procedure in spite of her very ill condition as they needed to treat the source of the problem. We were informed twice that it would be a very challenging procedure. I believed God provided a way, and thankfully, the procedure was successful.

But two hours later, my mum’s condition suddenly took a turn for the worst. We were told to gather all our family members to see her for the last time as she might not be able to pull through.  

The whole family was devastated. We called up the church office and Pastor Soo Teck from the Chinese Ministry came in the evening to pray for her. Just before he ended his prayer, my mum suddenly moved her right hand strongly and we were so astonished, happy and energised with hope!

From then on, my mum showed good signs of recovery. Seeing that her condition had stabilised, the doctors started her on a kidney dialysis that night. However, God had a better plan! In just a couple of hours, her kidneys which had shut down, started to function again. The team of ICU doctors were amazed and even told me to continue praying to my God. They also reduced the number of drugs administered for my mum’s heart and blood pressure.

We flooded my mum’s ward with Mandarin and Hokkien Christian songs, and prayed aloud every day so that she could hear us.

On 25 July, my mum was able to nod her head to let us know that she liked listening to the songs and hearing us pray. The next day, she could sit up on a chair, and that afternoon, the doctor removed her endotracheal breathing tube and she was given oxygen via a nasal prong. She was able to open her eyes and obey simple instructions.

A few days later, she was moved to a general ward and the doctors were planning for her to be discharged. However, a couple of weeks later, my mum became very stubborn and didn’t want to carry out her rehabilitation exercises.

On 14 August evening, we were told by doctors that my mum had pneumonia in her right lung and the doctors administered very strong antibiotics. The next morning, the doctor informed us that my mum was not doing well and she couldn’t breathe. They asked to meet the family members. We rushed to the hospital and was again told to prepare for the worst.  

Doctors said that her infection was affecting her breathing and was causing her to slip into unconsciousness. This time, her chance of surviving was even lower.  

We could not do anything except to pray, and we got Pastor Soo Teck to come and pray with us in the ward. My mum nodded her head in agreement when pastor asked if he could pray for her. We had a wonderful time of prayer and worship in Hokkien. Our hearts were so full of peace during the whole session.

The next day, the nurse told us that my mum was more awake and was able to get out of bed with the help of the nurse to sit on the chair. She was also able to take a sip of coffee.

Daddy God is indeed merciful and faithful. When our faith was low, He showed up. My mum was discharged on 30 August 2014 and the gall stones in her body were completely removed.

My family and I are so touched to experience our heavenly Father’s awesome goodness. We want to appreciate New Creation Church and Pastor Soo Teck for visiting and praying with us. Thank you Pastor Prince for your teachings on grace and Psalm 91 — which was very timely for our family. And of course, the biggest thanks and glory go to our Lord Jesus Christ!

Tumour–Free!

I underwent an operation to remove a fibroid more than 10 years ago. As a result, I had to go for yearly check–ups. During a particular visit, the doctor found a black patch in my womb. Feeling uneasy, she sent me for a second scan at a hospital a month later.

The results confirmed her suspicion. The black patch was indeed a cluster of cysts that had formed a tumour, which also known as a neoplasm. The doctor wanted to perform an immediate operation as the tumour was quite big. She also did not want to take any chances as it may spread if it were cancerous.

The tumour sat on my ovary and I was given two options. The first option was to remove one side of my ovary together with the tumour and send it for a biopsy test. And if the tumour turned out to be malignant, the doctor would proceed to remove my entire womb. The alternative option was to simply remove the womb. I ended up choosing the first option as I still hoped for the best!

My operation was scheduled on 11 May 2016. My friend who was concerned about me, invited to New Creation Church on 8 May. Initially, I turned down the invitation as I felt that even if I attended the service, the message would not help my condition. But my friend persuaded me to attend. Out of obligation, I went along.

During worship, we started singing the song “In Whom I Can Trust” and I was moved by the Holy Spirit. Tears started to flow non–stop and at that moment, I told Jesus about my fear and asked Him to cure my diseases. I just surrendered myself to Him!

After the church service, I stopped having nightmares and was able to have a good sleep. I also felt at peace as I had trusted in Him.

On the eve of my operation, I had to drink three glasses of laxatives which I called “poison” water. During my last operation, they sent chills down my spine when I drank them. This time round, I prayed to God to make the “poison” water sweet before I took the drinks. Amazingly, they tasted sweet! I drank all three glasses with ease and I was stunned. Praise the Lord!

I went for my operation the next day at 9am and was back to my ward by about 2pm. At 9pm, the doctor informed me that I had no cancer as I had no tumour to begin with and she did not remove my ovary! The tumour turned out to be a fibroid which was a common but non–threatening growth.

Indeed, it was a miracle! Though puzzled, I was happy to know that I had no cancer and that my ovaries were intact! I think the doctor was as surprised as I was!

I believe that God had worked behind the scenes to turn my situation around. Our God is a true God! Praise the Lord! Amen!

Daughter’s Curved Spine Straightened After Applying the Anointing Oil

2015 is the year of His restoration and God has indeed restored the health of my 12–year–old daughter, Rachel.

In August 2015, Rachel had a routine health check–up in school and was diagnosed with a curved spine. She was referred to a specialist who confirmed through an x–ray that her spine was curved and that it was a genetic problem.

She was asked to wear a customised back brace for about 16 hours a day until the age of 15. The brace was very uncomfortable so she only wore it for three to four hours a day over three weeks.

She decided instead to anoint her curved spine with the anointing oil, believing that God would straighten her spine.

In October, the specialist sent Rachel for another x–ray and found that her spine had straightened significantly! She no longer required treatment. According to the specialist, it is almost impossible for the spine to straighten on its own. Truly the healing came from God.

Freed from Hypertension

In late 2014, during a regular check up, my systolic blood pressure (the top number in a blood pressure reading that measures the pressure on the arteries) was found to be 160.

I was shocked as my blood pressure had never been so high before. I thought it could be due to the rush to get to the clinic. After my consultation with the doctor, the nurse measured my blood pressure again and now, the machine could not even detect my blood pressure as it was beyond the machine’s maximum limit!

My sister, who was a doctor, advised me to take my blood pressure regularly. My blood pressure remained consistently high for a month. My sister wanted to start me on medication but I refused knowing that once I did so, I would have to be on it forever.

Since I refused to listen to her, my sister then referred me to a cardiologist who used a 24-hour blood pressure device to monitor my blood pressure every 15 minutes. The average reading was around 155 and he concluded that I had hypertension. I had no choice but to take medicine to lower my blood pressure. The cardiologist also sent me for further tests to determine the cause of my hypertension at a young age as I am only in my late thirties, but couldn’t pin down the cause.

In early December 2014, I shared about my condition with my care group and my leader prayed for me. I continued to trust Jesus to heal me and partook of the Holy Communion daily.

One day in early January this year, I felt very giddy. My sister advised me to stop my medication and monitor my blood pressure. I was shocked that my blood pressure had dropped to 100/60! (A normal reading is around 120/80.) My low blood pressure was causing the dizziness.

At the point in time, I believed that the Lord had already healed me and the medicine lowered my blood pressure further. I stopped taking the medicine and four days later, I went to see the cardiologist. He was baffled as my blood pressure was now normal, and concluded that I no longer had hypertension.

Praise Jesus! I am completely healed! What is impossible with man is possible with Jesus. Indeed, this is the year of His restoration for me, right at the beginning of the year. Thank you Pastor Prince for blessing us with the message of grace.

Pain in Shoulder Healed After Healing Prayer in Service

On a rainy day in October 2014, I slipped and fell on my side with full force. I didn't notice anything at first because I was more concerned with trying to get the attention of my friend. Once I was seated in the train on my way home, I felt an intense pain in my right shoulder. Over the course of the next few days, the pain intensified until I could barely move my right arm without wincing.

I believed God for my healing and faithfully partook of the Holy Communion. The pain in my shoulder remained and I could not play the cello, but I persevered and asked God to make my shoulder well enough so that I could at least play the cello in church as a volunteer in November and December.

Although the pain continued through the new year, I was thankfully able to play the cello in church at about 70 per cent of my usual ability. I thanked God for that, but I knew He wasn't finished yet.

On 11 January 2015, Pastor Prince prayed for healing and mentioned that there was someone with a frozen shoulder. I felt that he was referring to me! During the prayer, I felt an intense warmth in my shoulder, right on the spot where I had been injured.

Immediately after that, I felt an improvement but the shoulder was still not completely healed. I continued to tell myself that my healing was on the way and that it had already begun. I believed firmly that Jesus has paid for my healing and that the affliction does not belong in my body.

Today, a week later, I have full motion in my shoulder and can play the cello again. In fact, I feel even stronger than before. All praise to Jesus!

Healed from Acute Pain in Leg, Walking Restored

For several months, I was suffering from an acute pain behind my right knee. I was unable to move whenever I got up from a sitting position. I also limped and could not walk for long. The condition discouraged and upset me.

I was referred to an orthopaedist who requested that I go for a Magnetic Resonance Imaging, or MRI, scan. That Sunday, Pastor Prince led us in prayer for healing, which was what I really needed. Besides praying for healing over my condition, I also prayed that I need not have to go through the MRI scan.

I started partaking of the Holy Communion at home, believing and trusting that while I can do nothing to improve my condition, Jesus is able and more than willing to heal me. Whenever I felt pain and difficulty when walking, I would declare over myself that “by His stripes, I am healed! In Jesus, I am able to keep on walking!” I kept proclaiming and trusting in His power to heal. Although I was not fully healed then, I managed to walk with less difficulties.

And today, the pain is completely gone. Praise the Lord! I did not go back to my orthopaedist because Jesus has restored my leg! Not only am I able to walk long distances, I’m able to run for the bus. Hallelujah!

I am now looking forward to more walking holidays with my family, and hopefully, I will get to walk in the land of Israel this year or the next. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for preaching the good news of grace and healing. May our Lord Jesus Christ continue to bless you in your ministry and in preaching the true gospel of grace.

Healed of Protruding Bone and Pain

On 18 December 2014, I injured my neck while attempting a difficult variant of a pull up. At first, it felt like a simple sprain. However, the next morning, after some massage and heat therapy, a bone at the top of my spine felt dislocated. I could not turn my head left or right, and couldn’t look up or down. It was painful to bend over in any way.

Before I saw a Chinese physician, I partook of the Holy Communion and read some Bible verses on healing. Although the pain did not lessen, I told myself not to lose faith.

The Chinese physician told me that my spine was jutting out by about a quarter of an inch and asked me to feel it. He manipulated my spine with a crack and told me to return a few days later for another treatment. I felt marginally better, but the pain remained almost the same. I still couldn’t turn my head.

That Sunday, on my way to church, I prayed that God would heal me so that I could emcee for a friend’s wedding. I also hoped that Pastor Prince would pray for healing, but we were having our Christmas celebrations, and I thought — which church would hold a healing session at a Christmas service? But I heard God telling me to trust Him.

At the Christmas service, I prayed for healing as I partook of the Holy Communion and the pain eased by about 30 per cent. I was joyful, encouraged and grateful.

God wasn’t done. The sermon preached at an earlier service was shown on video, and when Pastor Prince started singing hymns on video, I prayed and enjoyed God’s presence. To my surprise, or maybe not so much, Pastor Prince started praying for healing. I felt heat in my lower spine. It travelled steadily up my spine and into my arms. I knew that God was healing me. Then, Pastor Prince asked those who had pain to place their hands on the painful spots, and I placed my hand over the protruding bone.

By then, I was crying buckets and only remember Pastor Prince saying, “If you are feeling a warm sensation, God has healed you. ” He then said, “Now do what you couldn’t do before. ” I looked up and raised my arms to praise God and worship Him. I have been healed by a God who loves me so much! When I went back to the Chinese physician a few days later, he told me that my bone was perfectly in place.

My family went to Thailand as missionaries when I was six, and I knew a lot about the Bible. Yet, I didn’t have a real, personal relationship with Jesus until my girlfriend brought me to New Creation Church about 18 months ago. I’m really thankful for this ministry that truly puts our Lord and Saviour at the center of it all. If it weren’t for Pastor Prince revealing Christ through the Scriptures every week, I certainly wouldn’t be confident of my salvation or to ask God for healing. Thank you Pastor Prince!

Dad’s Life Changed for the Better After Being Saved

In 2012, my dad met with a serious work accident and almost lost his right hand. The doctor told us that he might be handicapped. But thank God, the operation was a success.

He rested at home and went back to work about a year later. Within a month, he got into a work accident again and injured his left foot. After that, he could barely walk. During that time, I would pray for his protection and healing. Recovery was slow but certain.

Life was not smooth-sailing after the two accidents. For almost two years, my dad had a hard time finding a proper job due to his injuries. He was unhappy, bad-tempered and worried a lot about his future.

He totally gave up hope in life and was afraid he could no longer financially support the family. I was worried sick but couldn’t do anything, except to pray for him. I wanted him to join me in church, but he was too stubborn and was not a believer. So, I shared with him the testimonies which I had heard from Pastor Prince with the intention of giving him hope.

Then in October 2014, my dad started to have interest and wanted to attend church service with us to know more about Jesus. We were shocked! Since he could not understand English, we brought him to attend Pastor Mark Ng’s Mandarin service.

After the service, he felt an unexplainable relief. I truly believed it was an overflowing miracle, because ever since it started, it had never stopped!

Since that day, my dad has been attending the Mandarin services every Sunday without fail. Hallelujah!

He also learnt to have faith in Jesus, and prayed for a job in His name. In just three weeks, he received two job offers and the second one offered him double the pay of the first! Praise be to Almighty Lord!

My dad has also fully recovered and is now more cheerful, happier, and most importantly, believes in Jesus Christ! It is such a major transformation! I know it has to be God who has been changing my dad.

Abscess in Niece’s Kidney Gone!

My mother has been attending the Hokkien service since 2011. She was baptised in 2012 and I saw her faith grew as she heard the Word of God preached by our Chinese Ministry pastors.

In July this year, my brother’s younger daughter, Mynn had a persistent fever and was admitted to the hospital. Mynn was only 23 months old at that time.

After investigations, the hospital discovered that she had urinary tract infection. She was also given antibiotics jabs intravenously and was very distraught. My mother and I partook of the Holy Communion and applied anointing oil on Mynn. We prayed for her in the hospital.

Her fever came down on the third day. The doctor said she was recovering well but to be sure, he scheduled a computerised tomography scan (CT scan) for her kidneys before she could be discharged. Mynn’s fever was gone soon after and she was lively and eating well. Her urine and blood tests were all cleared. We thought she would be discharged soon.

However, the CT scan results showed that she had an abscess the size of a one–cent coin in one of her kidneys. The doctor recommended that she continue her antibiotics intravenously. The doctors were baffled that Mynn appeared well, and her blood and urine tests were clear in spite of the abscess.

She went through another week of intravenous antibiotics which was very painful for her because the doctors had to find new intravenous spots every few days. My mother, my sister–in–law and I cried along with Mynn whenever the procedure was going on.

After a week and a half in hospital, Mynn went for a second CT scan. This time round, the abscess had grown to the size of a five–cent coin!

Our hearts dropped upon hearing the news. My mother was very sad and she approached a church leader after the Hokkien service on Sunday to pray for Mynn with her. She kept telling me that Jesus is Mynn’s Healer and He would guide the doctors. Together, we spoke words of faith believing Mynn is healed.

After two weeks, Mynn went for her third CT scan and this time, the abscess was gone. All praise to Jesus!

We believe that Jesus had contained the bacteria in the abscess and that was why her blood and urine tests were clear. We would like to thank the church for the good feeding every Sunday, teaching us to stand on righteous ground, partaking the Holy Communion, using the anointing oil, praying in the Spirit, and speaking forth what we want to see.

With grateful hearts, we would like to give all glory to our Lord Jesus for keeping our family under the shadow of His wings.

Remarkable Recovery from Virus Infection

In March 2012, during the first school semester break, my daughter, Megan, who was in Secondary 3, was selected to participate in an overseas learning programme in Australia.

After she got back, she came down with a mild fever and missed two days of school. However, what was initially thought to be just mild fever became something so serious that we, as a family, were not prepared for.

Her fever persisted and she continued to experience fatigue and backache. The doctor then ordered her to go for tests to check on her liver function and blood count level. Thank God for wisdom in the attending doctor as I was still dismissing the situation as just another usual fever episode.

On the following day, I received a call from the clinic saying that my daughter had to be admitted to the hospital as the test results were very bad.

Usually, a healthy liver would have an alanine aminotransferase (ALAT) serum reading of around 5 to 30 micromole per litre. But my daughter’s liver test results came back with a whopping 561 micromole per litre, which was more than 10 times the healthy level. To be exact, it was 18.7 times more.

She was admitted to the hospital on 22 March 2012 where they ran a battery of tests on her. After three days, the doctor was still unable to give a clear diagnosis of my daughter’s condition as blood culture test results would only be ready in another couple more days.

Meanwhile, my daughter’s ALAT serum reading managed to drop to around 200 micromole per litre. Though it was still above the acceptable range, the doctor acceded to our request to have my daughter discharged on the condition that she goes for her blood test every week.

Nine days after her discharge, it was confirmed that my daughter had contracted a nasty infection known as Epstein–Barr Virus (EB Virus).

This virus usually attacks the healthy liver, resulting in fever, extreme weakness of body and jaundice. The patient will also experience discomfort and abdominal pain.

My daughter suffered from all of the symptoms and the subsequent weekly blood tests results indicated an atrociously high ALAT serum of more than 1,500 micromole per litre. She was then admitted to the hospital for a second time.

As parents, one could only imagine the kind of anguish and predicament that we were in. But this was when all the teachings we had received through Pastor Prince’s ministry were put to test.

The circumstances forced us to rely on God’s grace to guard our hearts and minds. It wasn’t just about the illness we were battling with. My daughter was also anxious about her studies and 10 weeks of lessons missed.

One would have imagine how badly damaged her liver was at this time with ALAT serum readings in the region of 1,500 to 1,800 micromole per litre. Health studies told us that she might end up suffering from chronic fatigue and would take up to a year to regain her full energy.

Thank God that our Abba Father has the final say! Despite the ridiculously high readings, we had His unshakeable peace. We continued to believe that healing is our daughter’s blood–bought right because of the finished work of Jesus at Calvary.

Youth ministry pastor, Pastor Daniel Chong, also came to the hospital to pray and encouraged us to count on Daddy God for our daughter’s complete healing and restoration.

Praise God that He has the authority and power to change our circumstances! All glory to His name! My daughter did not suffer from any chronic fatigue. Instead, she made a remarkable recovery and was given a clean bill of health in early June. She also made it to the annual youth camp two weeks later in Malaysia!

God’s unclouded favour continued to rain upon my daughter as she found favour with her school’s principal and teachers. Her teachers set aside time when the new school term began in July to help her catch up with the studies that she had missed in the 10 weeks that she was absent from school. What an awesome God we have!

In the following year, my daughter sat for her O–Levels examinations and she did well.

In addition, God also intervened and we were able to pay off more than 98 percent of my daughter’s hefty hospitalisation bill through an insurance payout. This was a huge relief for us and we are still thankful to Daddy God’s timely provision.

Healing of Saliva Glands

I came to New Creation Church in October 2012 because it was shared to me that God loves me and wants to heal me. He is not punishing me for being a “lukewarm” Christian.

Back then, I had stage four nose cancer but after feeding on God’s Word through Pastor Prince’s sermons, I have been healed.

The 33 days of radiation treatment left me with a side effect — a lack of saliva flow in the mouth. The oncologist told me that the saliva flow would increase and stabilise in two years’ time but I would not regain its optimal function.

As such, I always had a bottle of water on hand as I would experience dryness in my mouth after one or two minutes of exercise.

I thank God that Pastor Prince shared that the theme of the year for 2015 was the year of His restoration. I had been believing God for a full restoration of my saliva glands even though my doctor and fellow nose cancer survivors told me that the best improvement would only take place within two years.

When 2015 came, I had already passed the two–year timeframe. But as I signed up to attend Hillsong Conference 2015, I had an expectation of hope. Then, on the last day of the conference, I experienced a restoration of my saliva glands!

I had run out of water and was experiencing acute dryness when the flow came back slowly. Hallelujah! Thank You God!

I would like to share this testimony so that those who are believing God for restoration may be encouraged to look to Jesus, who has the final say in our health and life.

All glory to Jesus! Thank you Pastor Prince for your faithful teaching of God’s grace. It is such a joy and delight to go to church every weekend to hear God’s Word.

Family Blessed Because of Jesus

I started listening to Pastor Prince’s sermons in October 2010 and used to listen to his sermon CDs in my room secretly or on my MP4 player. My extended family were all devout believers, including my husband, but he got angry that I listened to other Christian CDs.

At some point, my husband began to experience some trials in life. He was retrenched and tried looking for jobs but found nothing suitable.

One Saturday, I went to Rock Gifts And Book Centre to get Pastor Prince’s sermon CD as I usually do. My husband volunteered to drive me there and when he entered the shop, he was touched by some words he saw in the shop.

He then said to me that for him to attend New Creation Church, he had to see a miracle. But I told him if he would attend the church, his miracle would follow.

We started attending New Creation Church together on the third week of January 2015. My husband began to know Jesus as a close, loving friend and he discovered that Christianity was about building a relationship with this loving God and not a religion.

He started to talk about Jesus as though he had fallen in love for the first time, and couldn’t stop talking about Him. Surprisingly, he received a call for an interview. He was offered a position and not just a job. Praise to Jesus Christ alone!

Not only so, faith crept into my mother’s heart after she heard me share about Jesus. For 30 years, she suffered from a discharge even after her womb was removed. As faith arose in her heart, she began to partake of the Holy Communion daily. In just three days, she was completely healed from her condition! Praise the Lord!

Mum’s Health Restored

Indeed, 2015 has been a year of His restoration. In mid–December 2014, my mother experienced giddy spells and breathing difficulties while on a family trip in Batam, Indonesia. She was sent to a local hospital in Batam but none of the mediation could make her feel any better.

When she returned to Singapore that evening, she was rushed to the Accident & Emergency (A&E) Unit. Although she had no pre–existing conditions, doctors there told us that she was very ill and had to be put on life support.

My mother’s organs were failing and her heart was very weak (it was functioning at 10 per cent only). On top of that, her blood pressure was fluctuating from as high as 200 mm Hg to as low as 40 mm Hg within a minute.

Our hearts sank and we broke down. We blamed ourselves for not paying attention to her health. My care group leader and fellow ministry volunteers prayed alongside me. They came for hospital visits and encouraged me to continue to stand in faith and believe that Jesus would heal my mum completely. I also partook of the Holy Communion many times a day.

I continued to believe that doctors and medical reports would not have the final say. Only Jesus has the first and last word in our lives and it was going to be a good report! One and a half weeks later, my mother’s heart began to function and we saw a manifestation of 30–fold to 60–fold healing in her body. By the end of the second week, healing was a 100–fold. Life support was taken out and her heart could function on its own! Praise Jesus!

However, we received another bad report. There was a 10cm by 9cm tumour between my mother’s kidney and liver. Apparently, my mother had a rare tumour in her glands (pheochromocytoma) which causes the release of adrenaline and resulted in her fluctuating blood pressure. The hormones released also gave her headaches and chest pains. The doctors said that they might have to remove the tumour, her kidney and three quarters of her liver.

The following Sunday, I was at our Vision Sunday service when Pastor Prince announced 2015 as “The Year of His Restoration”. During the sermon, Pastor also prayed for someone in need of healing of the kidney, liver and heart! I believed the prayer was for my mother and I received that prayer by faith!

During my mother’s operation, I had so much peace in my heart from God. I shared with my father about pastor’s prayer on Sunday and confidently told him that the doctors would only be removing the tumour, and that her kidney, liver and heart shall be restored. As Jesus is perfectly healthy in heaven today, so is my mother in this world! After the operation, we were told that only the tumour was removed! Hallelujah!

Thank you Jesus and thank you, Pastor Prince!

Healed of 38–Year Chronic Skin Condition

I suffered from folliculitis (an inflammation of the hair follicles) for over 38 years since I was 15 years old. I saw over 100 doctors and every single one told me that I could not be cured. I did everything. I bought every kind of cream and medicine available and most of them made it worse. There were thousands of red dots all over my back, chest and arms. I could never take my shirt off in public and avoided going out because people would think that I had an infectious disease. They cringed when they saw my skin.

The condition was itchy and it would worsen when I perspired. If it got cold and dry suddenly, the skin on my back would tear and bleed when I reached for something quickly. I lost track of the number of times someone told me that my back was bleeding through my shirt. It was horrible but the real damage was emotional. Throughout my school days, I rejected pool or beach parties invites. When I did go to the beach, I would visit a remote one at an unpopular time to avoid people. However, even then, I would run into people I knew and they would be stunned and disturbed by my skin condition.

I have also been a Christian since 1982 but I stopped attending church in the last five years because every sermon seemed to say that I had to try harder. After 30 years of trying to work my way to heaven, I was exhausted.

Then two years ago, I started listening to Pastor Prince’s sermons on long morning walks. This went on for months and things began to change. I started to believe that God blesses those whom He loves, and started to rest in what He has done for me and not what I was trying to do for Him.

Today, my skin is miraculously healed! It is perfectly clear and soft like a baby’s bottom! Even my wife is completely amazed. For the first time in 38 years, I can take off my shirt with others around when I play tennis.

Pastor Prince shared that 2015 is a year of His restoration when God would heal His people of their chronic illness, and I have been restored. My new skin is the least of the blessings. I no longer worry, but I just cast my cares on Him and receive His favour. Fear and oppression are far from me. Thank You Jesus for going to the cross for me.

No More Pain!

I had haemorrhoid (swollen blood vessels in or around the anus and rectum) when I had my first child around 10 years ago, and the condition worsened when I had my second child.

I didn’t go for a surgery to remove the swollen vein as it was not critical and did not bother me. Eventually, it become such a part of me that I didn’t even pray about it.

But on Saturday, 5 September 2015, it flared up, and it felt raw and sore. As the day progressed, the pain worsened and I started to walk funny. I even thought of sitting on an inflated float when I drove to church on Sunday. Suffice to say, I felt uncomfortable even sitting on my plush seat and was thinking of making an appointment with the doctor to get rid of it.

When we were in church, I prayed for wholeness as we partook of the Holy Communion together as a body of Christ. When Pastor Prince’s sermon was on, all I could hear was: “Fear not! Rest in His finished work. His grace is sufficient for you and His body was broken so that your body is made whole.” And Pastor Prince was not even preaching on healing alone.

Though the soreness was still there at the end of the service, it was tolerable. When Pastor Lawrence came out to pray for the congregation, I simply said, “Lord, I receive!”

There were times when I was sceptical when people shared about their instantaneous healing. But when it happened to me, it was just awesome! By nightfall, the pain was gone and I could feel that the lump had shrunk. By the next morning, I could not feel it anymore. There was no more pain.

How awesome is His healing touch. How loved I am by Him! Amen!

Pain Supernaturally Gone!

In the late afternoon of 8 September 2015, I felt an intense pain on the big toe of my left foot. I was very certain that I did not hurt it earlier in the day.

With every step that I took, I felt the pain and it was very uncomfortable. (Considering that I have a very high pain threshold, it would have been excruciating for another person). I tried my best to move my toe around, hoping to find a comfortable position, but alas, it was all in vain.

I shared this with my husband who told me to pray and partake of the Holy Communion. I prayed and applied some ointment before going to bed hoping that the pain would be gone in the morning.

Throughout the night, I continued to feel the pain in my toe whenever I moved my left foot.

When I got out of bed this morning, every step that I took would cause intense pain. While in the shower, I was trying to figure out which pair of shoes or sandals I could wear to the office in order to lessen the pain and whether I could even walk about in the office and out for lunch.

I continued to pray while loading the laundry into the washing machine, claiming that the Lord Jesus has healed me as He has taken all my pain on His body at the cross and that I am healed.

I then sat down and prepared to partake of the Holy Communion. Just before I did so, I felt little less pain on my toe.

And the moment I partook of the Holy Communion, the pain was immediately gone! COMPLETELY GONE! It was really that dramatic. I moved my toe, pushed it up, down, sideways, walked around and there was no pain. Hallelujah!!!

All praise to our Lord Jesus for He is good all the time. What a great God I have!

Lump Gone After Faith Declaration

Sometime in late October or early November 2014, I noticed there was a lump on my inner thigh. It was rather large, about one inch in diameter.

I was afraid so I prayed that it would leave in the name of Jesus. I also went online to read up on my symptoms and learnt that it would go away on its own. But, the websites also advised that I should seek medical attention if it was still there after a few weeks. As such, I didn't think much of it and just assumed the problem would be resolved.

Then in mid-December, I realised the lump was still there. Not only that, it seemed to have gotten even larger! At that point, I was terrified. I had no idea what was going on. So I started praying. I remembered reading in one of Pastor Prince's daily devotionals that he had a huge mole on his neck and after he repeatedly commanded it to be plucked up by its roots and cast into the sea, it eventually disappeared.

So I did likewise to my lump. Every day, I would confess how good God is and how He wants me healed. I would also command that the lump be plucked up by its roots and be cast into the sea.

I checked on the lump daily and realised that it was getting smaller and smaller. When I checked on it again on 30 December 2014, it was totally gone! I could not find any trace of it! What couldn't be done in the natural for many weeks, was done in a short time in the name of Jesus! All glory to God!

Mum’s Overnight Recovery

At 2am on Friday, 5 December 2014, my 85-year-old mum ran a high fever of more than 40 degree Celsius and had slipped into a state of coma.

She was sent to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) where the doctor discovered that she had a urinary tract infection. They then told us that her condition was not looking good and might become worse.

My wife, my son and I prayed over her and we trusted that God would heal her. The next day, she woke up and her fever was gone!

She shared with my other family members that while she was still in coma, she felt a sense of tranquillity and peace. Since then, her health had improved to such a point where she was even healthier than before she fell ill. She was also allowed to be discharged from the hospital.

We are so thankful for Pastor Prince's teaching that had taught us the power of our words and prayers. Indeed this is a miracle from Abba God, for only He can provide such a speedy recovery for my mum! All praise be to our Abba!

Fibroid Shrunk After Prayer!

In May 2014, I developed a sudden hormone disorder which led to the growth of a fibroid in my uterus. I was constantly losing blood for more than two months. I sought the help of doctors but my condition did not improve, even though I was on medication.

The doctor advised me to consider a surgery which made me even more worried. Thank God, my sister reminded me of the story of the lady with an issue of blood in the Bible and that I needed to “touch" or encounter Jesus.

Then on 20 July 2014, I attended the church’s Chinese service with my family. Chinese Ministry’s Pastor Mark Ng preached the Word and at the end of the service, he pronounced a prayer over us. In his prayer, he specifically mentioned the sickness which I was experiencing! I knew that it was for me and I strongly believed that I was healed from that moment onwards.

All glory to God! All my symptoms suddenly stopped. When I went back to the doctor for my review five days later, the doctor confirmed that the fibroid had shrunk tremendously, and neither surgery nor medication was required!

Thank You Jesus!

Eczema Cleared Up Instantly After Prayer!

My name is Ruby and I am in DARE, our church’s youth ministry group for secondary school students.

For the past one-and-a-half years, I have had eczema which causes my skin to itch. When it gets serious, my skin would have a “bubble-like” appearance with pus or even blood. It would itch like mad whenever I was stressed. The itch would be there one day, get better the next day, and then return again.

On Sunday, 10 August 2014, I went to DARE service with the eczema and pus still on my hands.

During the service, Pastor Daniel Chong asked for youths who were sick to raise their hands. I was very self-conscious and shy about raising my hands but decided to do so anyway.

While Pastor Daniel was praying, I wanted to see my hands healed the moment I opened my eyes. Although I believed God for that, a part of me was still worried that it might not happen. Nonetheless, I put my confidence in the Lord that I would be healed.

When I opened my eyes, I was shocked to see that my hands were clear and smooth! The pus and eczema were completely gone. It has been three weeks now and my hands have remained smooth without any itch!

This is a miracle because the itch usually returns after a day or two. I have been completely healed! All praise to Jesus!

Chipped Bone Healed

Last year 2013, I fell and injured my ankle while I was in Batam. It was so swollen and painful that I could not walk. I came back to Singapore on a wheelchair and headed straight to the accident and emergency unit.

I went for an X-ray which showed a fracture and missing triangular bone. I was told that I need to undergo a surgery to remove the chip of bone that had been displaced. I was horrified because I am afraid of pain.

I anxiously sought prayers from my friends and care group leader. My care group leader’s wife shared with me that she fell and fractured her tailbone before, and it resulted in a chipped bone too. But after praying over it together with her spouse, God supernaturally removed the chip and the doctors could not find it in the subsequent X-ray. I was very encouraged by her testimony and together with my care group leader, we prayed for healing.

A few days later, I went for another detailed X-ray at a different hospital and waited anxiously for the results. When the results were out, the doctor found no fracture and no missing bone! I was told that I only had a sprain and hence, no operation was required! All glory to Jesus!

Thank you Pastor Prince for preaching that God heals and for giving us such anointed leaders!

Eye Infection Healed

In April 2014, I had an eye infection and it bothered me a lot. Every time I blinked, it hurt and I told Jesus I didn't want it anymore. But I took matters into my own hands by trying to squeeze the pus out and accidentally burst a blood vessel in my eye.

The feeling was immensely horrible. It made me condemn myself so much for fear of going blind. The next day in school, one of my friends saw how red and swollen my eye was, and told me I should seek medical help quickly.

She went on to tell me about her friend who had experienced a similar problem and underwent an eye operation. She told me all of this during assembly and while the National Anthem was being played, I couldn't stop my tears from flowing. I just kept crying and crying.

Later, my care group friend and my classmate, Hannah, saw my eye and brought me to somewhere quiet and offered to pray for me. I was so thankful and just kept crying tears of joy, feeling Jesus embracing me over and over again. What struck a chord in my heart was this: I am His beloved.

After school, I visited the doctor and he said that it was nothing serious and would heal. I checked online and read that an infection like this would take about two weeks to heal. But the Lord, being the loving Abba that He is, healed my eye in one week and the day that my eye was completely healed was my birthday. It’s the best birthday present! The healing that no man can give, Jesus paid it for me on the cross.

No More Acid Reflux!

I have been attending New Creation Church since 2009, and have been abundantly blessed by the gospel of grace. Pastor Prince has always delivered the message with such simplicity that even those who are not skilled in the Word would have no problem understanding and embracing the gospel that reveals the glory of Jesus.

On Sunday, 9 February 2014, Pastor Prince led the congregation in a prayer and asked every believer to confess and receive healing in their bodies.

At first, I was not sure which area I should pray for. Then, it dawned upon me that I needed healing for a condition that I was suffering for the last 20 years — Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease.

Those who know about this condition would know this can be very torturous. I have had countless sleepless nights because of the reflux.

While Pastor Prince prayed for the congregation, I simply told God that I would fully believe and accept the healing.

After that day, I would eat fried food for dinner late at night and on other occasions, take foods such as chocolate, peanuts and rojak (a local salad dish) just to exacerbate the reflux and “test” if I was healed.

Regardless of what I ate, the reflux did not come back at all! I believe that I am already rid of this condition once and for all. I waited for two months before writing this testimony because I wanted others to know that God’s healing is total and complete, even for an affliction of 20 years, it can be taken away in an instant!

Left Shoulder Pain Gone Supernaturally!

Though I had been a believer since young, I didn’t attend church for many years. In January 2014, my husband and I started going to New Creation Church as we wanted our little girl, to receive Jesus and know more about Him.

I had stiffness and sharp pains in my shoulders from sitting in front of the computer for long hours. Every day, I had to sit on my massage chair or get occasional hand massage from my husband, to get temporal relief for my shoulders, especially the left one.

One particular night, I prayed for healing before going to bed as my shoulders were getting more and more painful. At that very moment, I did feel a sudden relief and was able to sleep soundly throughout the night. However, the pain came back after that.

Then came Sunday, 9 February 2014, when I experienced one of my closest encounters with God!

That day, I attended the third service with an open heart to learn more about God’s Word from Pastor Prince. To my surprise, Pastor Prince started the service with a prayer and healing session.

He asked us to place our hand on the body parts where we were experiencing pain and he also called out a left shoulder condition. He then declared healing to our left shoulders in Jesus’ name!

I looked at my husband in awe when Pastor Prince mentioned left shoulder. Throughout the prayer session, I felt a tingling sensation, which I believed was the Holy Spirit healing my left shoulder!

After that Sunday, I have been consciously observing my left shoulder to see if the pain would return. To my delight, it has been a week and there was no more pain in my shoulder! Praise the Lord!

Healed of Lupus

In 2008, I was diagnosed with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (or lupus), an incurable autoimmune disorder, which affects the skin, joints and other major body organs.

I had swollen ankles and was in perpetual pain. Refusing to acknowledge its presence, I went on living my life as I always did. I was content to be on long-term medication and put up with the regular visits to my rheumatologist every three months.

In April 2013, my colleague shared with me about a Christian brother who turned away from God after his wife and god-daughter had fallen very ill. I told her that when Jesus was asked why the blind man was born blind, His reply was not to find faults but declared that it was for God to perform a miracle in his life.

That night, I realised I was no longer content to have irregular blood test readings anymore. I heard God say to pray and believe Him for a miracle.

Having learnt that God wants to give good gifts to His beloveds like how we want to give wonderful presents to our loved ones, I told God that I want a complete healing from lupus as my birthday present since my birthday would come before my next medical appointment in July.

Three months later, I went for my usual check-up and for the first time in six years, my blood test came back normal! Jesus has healed me!

Thank you Pastor Prince for sharing the gospel and unveiling Jesus to us — through this knowledge, I am able to possess my blessings and healing which He died to give me. Praise the Lord!

Jesus Healed My Sister!

Earlier this year, my sister was going through depression due to academic stress from her college. Relationship problems between my parents worsened her condition.

She kept to herself and even had suicidal thoughts. It hurt me to see her crying every day and I thought of ways and means to help improve her condition. However, all my human efforts failed. I felt miserable and eventually gave up.

At my most helpless point, God came in and showed me that apart from Him, I cannot do anything. When I had no more strength, I leaned on God’s Word through Pastor Prince’s teachings and held on to the promise that Jesus bore my sister’s depression at the cross. I am also thankful for my care group which supported me throughout this time.

Slowly, the Lord showed me the power of partaking of the Holy Communion. I claimed healing for my sister and each time I saw her crying, I would partake of the Holy Communion with her, declaring that by His stripes she is healed. I also applied the anointing oil on her head when she slept and spoke the Lord's protection over her. The Lord opened my sister’s heart to come to church, and continuously hearing the gospel of grace freed her of all condemnation and bondage.

Just recently, my sister received the gift of tongues and the Lord told her personally that He loves her. Today, she is completely healed! Sometimes I even have to pray that she will not talk so much so that I can focus on my studies. I’ve learnt through Pastor Prince’s ministry that healing is by grace — not by us doing more, but by simply resting upon the finished work of Jesus Christ. All glory to Jesus!

God Restored Her Daughter’s Decayed Teeth

When my daughter was three years old, she had a toothache. Back then, my daughter always refused to brush her teeth despite having a sweet tooth. The pain got so bad that we decided to take her to the dentist.

The dental check-up revealed that my daughter had 10 teeth that were decayed! The dentist told us that he had to remove all her 10 teeth. However, I refused, believing that Jesus would heal her. I would also pray with her every night for the Lord to bless her with beautiful, strong and healthy teeth and gums.

Four years passed and we never took her to see a dentist. When she started Primary 1, she had to go for a dental check-up. Praise Jesus that she only needed one filling! She is 11 years old today and she has beautiful teeth, which is a miracle considering that she only started brushing her teeth when she was eight years old.

I have to admit that I had failed in teaching her to brush her teeth, but I have a big Jesus who never fails! Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your teachings which have brought many miracles to me and my family.

Son’s Brain Tumour Disappeared

In April 2010, my 10-year-old son, Gabriel, complained of a bruise on his head. He had accidentally knocked his head and we did not think it was anything serious. However, I started to feel uneasy when the bump did not go away after a few weeks. I told my husband to bring him to a clinic just to be sure that the bump was nothing serious. That was the beginning of our nightmare.

Gabriel was referred to a hospital and a computer tomography scan and a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan were done on him. The doctor told us that Gabriel had a lesion, possibly a tumour, located near his right frontal lobe and lying just above his brain. Even to our untrained eyes, the mass lesion measuring 24mm by 19mm was very obvious when we scrolled through the MRI images on the computer. We were in shock and we could not believe that this nasty growth was in our son’s head.

The neurosurgeon advised us to decide on a date for an operation. He said that we could take a week or two to think it over or to seek a second opinion. He also added that the lesion might change which is why we should remove it.

After the hospital visit, we immediately began applying what we learnt about God’s healing and stepped up on praying in tongues, using the anointing oil and partaking of the Holy Communion with Gabriel. We also approached Pastor Henry to pray for Gabriel. As parents, we were anxious to seek treatment for Gabriel but did not want to subject him to the trauma of a surgery.

My husband also wrote a prayer request to the church. Pastor Lawrence contacted us and asked for a meet-up after one of the Sunday services. When he found out that Gabriel was able to pray in tongues, he encouraged him to continue speaking in tongues over himself regularly. After he counselled and prayed over us, he gave the best advice I had heard for a long time — to just relax and watch a movie as a family. We already believed, so we just needed to rest in God.

At our next visit to the hospital, we requested for another scan instead of consenting to a surgery. The scan showed that the lesion was still there although the shape had changed and the lesion appeared flatter. We were devastated.

We listened to the Word and prayed about it before deciding not to go ahead with the surgery. We simply made an appointment for a follow-up review at the end of the year. This was against the doctors’ recommendation that Gabriel should go for a review every two to three months. However, I wanted Gabriel to go through school without any added stress. During the next five months, we did not take any special precautions in his physical activities as we wanted him to remain active. Gabriel enjoyed swimming and even learnt to ride his wave board.

Throughout these past months, the person who encouraged me to keep believing in God’s goodness was Gabriel himself! Although I could sense his fear at times, he never stopped believing that Jesus would heal him. He would relate to me testimonies and Bible stories that his Rock Kidz teachers told him every Sunday. Whenever he saw that I was stressed over his condition, he would remind me that Jesus’ finished work has healed him. For someone who was usually very hyperactive and inattentive in school, I was amazed that he could relate with such details and accuracy what he had learnt in church.

On the day of the third MRI scan in November 2010, I must admit that we were a bit nervous. Gabriel asked us to pray while we were on our way to the hospital. I specifically remembered that when it was his turn to pray, he not only confessed that there will be no tumour in his head, he also confessed that God would completely restore the bone in his skull. He also proclaimed that God’s healing for him will be a testimony to many others.

When the results came out, I was amazed! The scan showed no sign of the lesion! Gabriel and I went back to the neurosurgery clinic later as a follow-up to the MRI scan. The doctor declared that it was good news and that the lesion has regressed significantly. Although he was reluctant to commit in writing, he told me verbally that as far as the scan showed, there was no sign of any tumour except for some shadows in the scan that suggested possible scarring left from the regression of the lesion. For Gabriel and me, we rejoiced that his bone is restored just as he had prayed.

Now, I realised what Pastor Prince meant when he said that we should not judge God based on our circumstances and what we see. I believe that from the very first time we confessed healing when Pastor Henry prayed over Gabriel, God had already begun the healing process. All these months, Gabriel lived a perfectly normal life. No one around him could tell that he was actually diagnosed with such a dangerous condition.

Thank you Pastor Henry, Pastor Lawrence and the teachers in Rock Kidz for all your encouragement. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for not just delivering God’s Word but also preaching it in such a way that is accessible to us. Thank you, New Creation Church.

Grandson Regained Hearing

In July 2010, my one-month-old grandson had meningitis and had to be hospitalised. After taking antibiotics, he recovered and was discharged. We were asked to take him back to the hospital for a review four months later.

At the review, my grandson had to sit for a hearing test. We were devastated when the doctor told us that he failed the hearing test. The doctor explained to us that meningitis could cause loss of hearing so she referred my grandson to a specialist. My grandson was scheduled for a sedated hearing test the following month.

I could not believe what happened because I did not know the severity of meningitis. I researched on meningitis on the Internet and found out that meningitis could cause hearing loss and the antibiotics administered could also cause permanent deafness. When I clapped or shook a rattle near my grandson’s ear, he would not respond.

I prayed for divine healing for my grandson, partook of the Holy Communion and anointed him every day. As the day of the sedated hearing test approached, we had to postpone the appointment twice because my grandson had a cough and cold on those days.

After postponing the appointment twice, my son felt that we should just send my grandson for a routine hearing test instead of a sedated hearing test, which required my grandson to fast the night before. We decided that should he fail the test again, we would then send him for the sedated hearing test.

On 29 December 2010, my grandson sat for a routine hearing test. The doctor declared that my grandson has perfect hearing and he can be discharged with no follow-up required! All glory and praise to Jesus! God is so faithful!

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for teaching us the gospel of grace. We are indeed highly favoured, greatly blessed and deeply loved by Abba Father. What men cannot do, God can!

No More Depression!

Two years ago, a tragedy left my wife emotionally scarred and angry with God. She slipped into deep depression shortly after, and began questioning her faith in the Lord. I was devastated and I suffered in anguish as she closed her mind to everything that I said.

After some time, I realised that there was nothing I could do but to cry out to God. I asked the Lord to restore my wife, her faith, and the peace that the enemy had stolen from us.

I also started listening to Pastor Prince’s sermons in the car, and would proclaim that Jesus had already paid the price for everything that my wife needed. I kept confessing the Word, resting in God's peace, and visualising my wife restored and joyful again.

Today, my wife is totally delivered from depression, and her faith has been completely restored. It blesses my soul to see my wife learn that she is greatly blessed, highly favoured, and deeply loved by our God! Shalom peace has been multiplied and our relationship is stronger than ever before! Praise God!

My faith has also increased! God never failed me once and He has been so faithful to me! Thank you, Pastor Prince, for preaching the Word and revealing God's truth. He is truly changing our lives!

Back Pain Healed!

I work in the Information Technology industry and my job requires me to face the computer screen a lot. For the past two months, my lower back has been aching as I sit down for more than eight to nine hours a day.

The pain usually goes away when I’m not at work or after a night’s sleep. As such, I’ve learnt to expect the pain as part and parcel of my job.

Recently, I remember listening to one of Pastor Prince’s sermons where he said that “if it [an issue] bothers you, it bothers Him”! I was very impacted as that meant that if a particular condition bothered me, Jesus would want me to be healed from it! Since then, I have prayed for healing for my back.

On 28 August 2011, I was online when I chanced upon Pastor Prince’s daily devotional that said: "Surely He has borne our griefs [sicknesses] and carried our sorrows [pains]" (Isaiah 53:4).

I was encouraged and continued meditating and proclaiming on God’s truths. Jesus had taken every beating, every stroke and every wound on my behalf, so I no longer had to suffer any pain!

That same day, I was at work and seated in front of the computer as usual when I noticed that my back pain was gone. My life has been changed dramatically by God's grace! More than one month has passed and I no longer experience back pain anymore.

Hallelujah! Praise Jesus for His healing! Thank you, Pastor Prince, for sharing God's grace with us.

Jesus Drives Out All Fear!

My mother, who is 54, was diagnosed with a tumour in her breast. I was very worried for her health as breast cancer seems to be a hereditary condition in my family. My grandmother passed away of breast cancer as well.

To make matters worse, my mother also had serious gastric pain and medicine didn’t help. Doctors were concerned that she might have kidney problems, so they conducted a scan to check her kidneys.

It was torturous waiting for the medical results. Thankfully, I remembered Pastor Prince’s sermon about the significance of the oil, bread and wine. As my mother was not a believer, I secretly applied the anointing oil on her bed and pillows every night. I also prayed in tongues and proclaimed Jesus’ protection over my mother every day. I trusted that God would protect my mother and extend His love to her, just like He did for the Gentile woman in Matthews 15, whose daughter was healed.

When the medical results were out, doctors found nothing wrong with her kidneys, and the tumour was not cancerous! Praise the Lord! I feel so loved!

Fever Broke After Worship

My two-year-old son has been running a high fever for the past two days. His breathing changed and my husband tried giving him a cool bath so that he would feel better. Although my son felt better for an hour, his temperature went up again.

The following day, my son’s fever did not go down and he was starting to feel lethargic. When his temperature skyrocketed to 103 degrees, I started panicking. I called the hospital but they had no appointment slots available. The urgent care was also too far from our house and my husband had the car that day.

By grace, I remembered Pastor Prince’s sharing about his daughter when she was sick and still a baby. I visited New Creation Church’s website and started reading aloud the healing scriptures that were found on the website. I declared my son’s healing and proclaimed the scriptures with my son’s name inside.

I also started singing worship songs and began worshipping God for His greatness. As I focused on the Lord, I forgot that my son was sick and my tears just fell as I worshipped. I worshipped for as long as I felt I needed to in my spirit. When I finally stopped, my son’s fever had been reduced tremendously. After an hour, my son’s fever gradually broke and he was well again.

Thank You Jesus! No medicine or amount of cold baths could have healed my son like how Jesus did. Amen!

A Father’s Prayer

My testimony may not be as dramatic as others, but nevertheless, our Lord Jesus is ever at work in us and through us!

My eldest daughter had been suffering from “flu-like” symptoms for two days. She was also feeling faint and breathless. She even lost much of her appetite for food.

During service one Sunday, my wife felt my hands were growing “warmer” than usual. You see, I usually hold my wife's hands or place my hands on her shoulder during the sermon. That Sunday, my wife felt the Lord impress upon her that God’s anointing was flowing, and I should use my hands to pray for our eldest daughter, who was seated with us.

Even though I didn’t feel “spiritual”, I immediately laid my hands on our daughter's head and prayed for healing. I also proclaimed specific blessings on her. Nothing dramatic seemed to happen. However, her flu-like symptoms and loss of appetite disappeared. During dinner, she even walloped her chicken chop!

Dear fathers out there, I want to encourage you to exercise your positional authority as the spiritual head of your household, and to pray for your wife and children.

It is amazing how as God's anointing flows through our senior pastor to our church, His anointing can flow through us regardless of how “unspiritual” we may feel. Simply because it's all about Jesus! There is power in His name and in His blood.

Thank you, Pastor Prince. Keep preaching and exalting Jesus. All glory to Jesus!

Back Pain Healed During Israel Trip

Whilst in Israel attending Pastor Joseph Prince’s service at the Southern Steps on 12 September 2012, I experienced pain in my lower back.

During praise and worship, Pastor Prince asked those who were not feeling well, to put their hands on their afflicted areas and he would pray for Jesus’ anointed healing. I did so and prayed. After Pastor Prince’s prayer, I could feel the pain slowly lift up. Praise the Lord for healing me!

New Year's Prayer Requests Answered

I’ve been attending New Creation Church for more than a year and I’m excited to share how the grace of God never fails to chase after me.

During New Year 2012 service, we were asked to come to God with three prayer requests. My first request was that I wanted to study for a Master’s Degree.

I was then in my final year of university and had applied for jobs along with my post-graduate applications. I managed to get into the final six to be shortlisted for a management associate program of an international company. The other five candidates were from local universities which were more established, so in my mind, I thought I had no chance.

Shortly after my final interview, I received an email informing me that I was rejected. It was really not a pleasant feeling but I believed that God had something better in store for me.

Later that day, I was overjoyed to receive an email from the London School of Economics informing me I’d been accepted for a Masters Course in Accounting and Finance. Praise the Lord! He placed me in one of the top schools in the world!

My second request was for the health of my parents, which was answered right away! My father came back with a clean bill of health from his specialist who previously suspected he had a cyst or stones in his kidney.

My last request was for emotional healing. After being in a relationship for four years, I went through a difficult break-up. I was an emotional disaster then and lost 15kg in three weeks! During this period, I couldn't see how good God was, but I still believed He was good.

I got to know the love of God the Father and the FINISHED work of Christ through the messages preached every Sunday. I began to realise that God never ceased to love me, and would only want good things to happen to me. I also began to learn that I have access to unmerited favour through Pastor Prince’s Christ-centred messages.

I want to thank God for Pastor Prince’s teachings; they have enabled me to see that when I put Jesus at the centre of my life, everything else will fall into place. I am currently in London studying this course that I put forth to God and feel blessed to be part of the New Creation family.

God Removed Her Fibroids Supernaturally

On 1 April 2011, I consulted a gynaecologist for irregular bleeding and pains. I told him my family’s medical history regarding cancer and did a pap smear, ultrasound and blood test. The gynaecologist told me that I had two big fibroids, about 4cm in size, and many smaller fibroids. One of the big fibroids was pressing against my uterus causing it to be distorted. I was told to go for a surgery to remove the big fibroids. However, there was no complete cure. After the surgery, the small fibroids may grow and the next step would be to remove the womb. So, I did not agree to the surgery.

I started to partake of the Holy Communion daily and listened to Pastor Prince’s sermons. I also anointed the ultrasound pictures and myself. Two weeks before the next medical review, I suffered two blackouts and intensive pain almost every day. However, I continued to believe that I am healed and mediated on the Bible truth that no woman is barren and that my womb is fruitful, for all the promises in Jesus are “Yes” and “Amen”.

Friends from New Creation Church called me and prayed for me. The night before the medical review, I partook of the Holy Communion and anointed myself. When I was about to sleep, I shouted, “Amen! Amen! Thank you, Jesus!” and was suddenly filled with joy. At that moment, I knew that I was healed!

On the day of the medical review, the blood test result showed no signs of cancer or severe internal bleeding. God is good! I am redeemed from the generational curse. Before I had the ultrasound test, I told the gynaecologist that the fibroids will disappear. The nurse joked that I must be thinking of an elixir. The gynaecologist added that if such an elixir exists, he would manufacture them. He mentioned that only God people believe in miracles, and although miracles exist, they are very rare.

The results showed that all the small fibroids had disappeared. Of the two big fibroids, one fibroid disappeared while the other showed signs of shrinking. No surgery is needed! Amen, hallelujah!

Health Restored Through The Holy Communion

My world came crashing down in April 2012 when I was diagnosed with late Stage 2 Breast Cancer. I could not believe it as I lead a healthy lifestyle, exercise weekly and maintain a healthy diet. I passed my last health screening in October 2010. I couldn’t understand how it was possible that I developed cancer within such a short timeframe of around 18 months.

My husband and I consulted a very experienced surgeon oncologist, but he was not optimistic of my condition. Whilst I was undergoing chemotherapy, a close friend gave me your book, Health And Wholeness Through The Holy Communion. What rock-solid truths and revelations we received through your book! The Holy Spirit convicted us both to partake of the Holy Communion daily.

Week by week, our faith grew and our spirit strengthened. God’s hand of preservation was upon my life. Unlike most cancer patients, I did not suffer much from the side effects of chemotherapy.

After three sessions, the ultrasound scan couldn’t clearly identify the tumour. When I’d completed my sixth chemotherapy session, scans revealed no tumours in all the affected areas! Praise the Lord!

As X-rays of the affected areas did not show any tumours, surgery was the only way to determine whether I still had cancer. So in October 2012, I was scheduled for surgery to remove tissue specimens for cancer cell testing. On the day I was due for surgery, my husband and I were in high spirits and confident of a positive outcome.

Before the surgery, a high-resolution mammogram was taken. To our horror, the radiologist detected a new cluster of suspicious looking cells which hadn’t been detected before. Based on her experience, she opined that these cells were cancerous and strongly advised me to proceed for a mastectomy.

My husband and I were shocked. Our earlier jubilance crashed, but while we were still in shock during this consultation process, my husband continued praying and claiming God’s healing upon me. When pressed for our final decision, we did not feel the peace for a mastectomy, so we decided that the procedure to remove tissue specimens would continue as planned.

Another independent oncologist who reviewed my pre-surgery mammogram also said that it was highly probable that the newfound cell clusters were cancerous, and he would likely have advised mastectomy as well.

Two weeks later, the laboratory results for the tissue specimens were ready. By God’s grace, the results did not show a single trace of cancerous cell! Even the previous cancer-infected areas and lymph nodes were also restored to normal. The specialist told us that only a very small percentage of breast cancer patients achieve such sterling results.

We believe this is the work of God. What man sees in the physical, God sees in the supernatural. Even if the cells were cancerous at the point before my surgery, we believe that God supernaturally healed me there and then.

God’s protection and healing did not just stop there. After my surgery I had to continue with another five weeks of radiotherapy. It’s commonly known that this can bring about side effects such as blisters and permanent scars on targeted skin areas. We were prepared for these side effects.

Throughout the duration of my treatment, we continued to claim God’s protection and blessings over my body. While the radiotherapy caused my skin to turn visibly darker, I didn’t suffer from any other side effects. The medical personnel and even my doctor often remarked and marvelled at how little I suffered from the “side effects”. 

Praise the Lord, within two weeks after completing my radiotherapy sessions, my skin returned to normal. It was as if I hadn’t received any radiotherapy. I believe that my healing and health restoration came from our miracle-working God and through the body of Christ for “by His stripes, we are healed”. (Isaiah 53:5)

I truly believe that partaking of the Holy Communion is more than a ritual to remember our Lord. When we hold the bread in our hands, we are coming in touch with the greatest expression of His love. Jesus Christ’s finished work on the cross was a divine exchange — His body for ours.

My journey through 2012 testifies of God’s grace in my life. He has healed me not because I’m good enough or I deserve it, but because of who God is. Even during my low moments, God reassured me that “If we are faithless, He remains faithful; He cannot deny Himself.” (2 Timothy 2:13)

It is God’s desire and will that all of us in the body of Christ enjoy great health and wholeness. I have learnt to completely rest in His finished work. In sharing my testimony, I hope that more people will understand and start believing right. Through Jesus Christ, we will receive His healing promises and experience an abundance of His resurrection life — in our spirit, soul and body!

We have been so nourished by the sermons that Pastor Prince has preached, it has brought new life and hunger for the Lord’s Word. Our children also attend Rock Kidz and they are enjoying every moment of it.

Thank you, Pastor Prince for your ministry. Keep on preaching the unadulterated gospel of grace and let many more be impacted by your sermons! Amen!

Tailbone Healed!

I purchased Pastor Prince's sermon, The Power Of The Anointing Oil, but only got to listen to it sometime later on 24 February 2013. I had been suffering from a pain in my tailbone for many months and tried massages and muscle relaxants, but they only provided short-term relief.

After listening to the sermon, I immediately went ahead to get a bottle of olive oil and prayed over it. The very night after partaking of the Holy Communion, I opened my bottle of "freshly anointed oil" and applied it on the affected area. Instantly, I felt a heat sensation around my tailbone while I declared healing over it. Subsequently, I went to bed.

The following day, I didn’t feel the pain anymore. I wanted to be absolutely sure so I waited for one more day. Indeed, the pain had gone away. God had completely healed me!

Praise the Lord! I now know that we don’t have to dwell on whether He will or will not heal, but to believe boldly that healing is already ours to claim. All we need to do is to just believe His Word and receive His healing.

Healed By Jesus' Stripes!

In 2008, I went for a routine medical check-up which included a complete blood test. The results showed that my haemoglobin count was dangerously low at only 4.8 g/dL. The normal range for women is between 12.0 g/dL and 16.0 g/dL. The doctor wanted to admit me to hospital immediately to do a blood transfusion. I refused and had to sign an indemnity form stating that I was responsible for my decision. The doctor prescribed various iron supplements but I suffered adverse reactions such as heart palpitations and had to stop taking them.

In 2010, I finally agreed to a blood transfusion following several episodes of fainting. I was given two pints of blood. A blood test followed and my haemoglobin count rose to a mere 5.7 g/dL. The doctor was not satisfied with the results but I insisted on being discharged. I signed another indemnity form to clear the doctor and hospital of any responsibility should anything happen to me.

Since medication and treatment were not working, I started partaking of the Holy Communion every morning which had no side effects! I declared Isaiah 53:5 over myself saying, "But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities. The chastisement for my peace was upon Him, and by His stripes, I am healed."

Since Jesus died to give me wholeness, every organ in my body should function in the perfect way that God had created them to function. I confessed the Word daily, speaking over my body, the temple of the Holy Spirit, and commanding it to get in line with the Word of God. I commanded my bone marrow to be healthy, producing the right amounts of red blood cells.

On 7 November 2012, I decided to go for another blood test. The doctor’s eyes widened when she saw my earlier test results. I was calm and told her not to worry. A day later, the nurse called to inform me of my test results. My haemoglobin count was 10.1 g/dL. Praise the Lord! I leapt for joy and immediately shared the good news with my husband and friends.

This is indeed Jesus! Hallelujah!

Jesus Heals!

I have been suffering from a very bad toothache that was so painful, I could not sleep well at night since Thursday, 13 September 2012. It hurt so much that I skipped lunch and dinner. During breakfast the next day, I had to soak my bread in milk tea because any slight chewing would cause more pain.

After Sunday service on 16 September 2012, my husband and I were watching the TBN Israel broadcast at home when Pastor Prince began ministering to all present at Caesarea Maritima. He also declared the healing touch of Jesus over the people.   

Although we were watching an archived programme, I felt a strong healing anointing flow and fill my room. There and then, I knew that the Lord was healing me from that toothache! When you asked the tour participants at the session to wave their hands if they know that they have been healed, I decided to wave my hands in faith as well!

Amazingly, I was better by dinner time and could enjoy beef rendang and green curry chicken. I also experienced my hundredfold healing that very night! Although I did not join the TBN Israel Tour, I was still being healed by Jesus just by watching a broadcast of you preaching there! 

Jesus is really an awesome God! Thank You Jesus for Your healing touch and love for me. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for constantly reminding us to look upon Jesus for healing. Jesus' healing power goes beyond time and space because He is a living God!  What an awesome experience indeed! Hallelujah!

Heart Healed!

Two months ago, I went for a routine medical check-up and medical reports revealed that my heart was “half-dead”. Two of my arteries were also blocked by plaque. My cardiologist believed that my heart had deteriorated over the past few years, and ordered a diagnostic angiogram to be scheduled.

I then recalled a testimony Pastor Prince once shared about Deacon Matthew who had received complete healing for a heart condition. I believed Jesus would see me through this crisis and began proclaiming healing in my body.

During this waiting period, my care group leader and members continued to pray for complete healing of my heart. Their prayers strengthened me. I also meditated on Jesus as my Healer, and partook of the Holy Communion knowing that Jesus had already taken all my afflictions. Amazingly, my faith increased and I felt at rest.

During the Sunday services that followed, Pastor Prince even prayed for healing during extended praise and worship sessions. It was as if those prayers were especially for me! There and then, I knew that my Father God knew what I was going through, and I felt His love envelop me.

After service one day, I also happened to meet Deacon Matthew who was standing outside the Rock Auditorium. I approached him and he prayed for me. Father God tugged at my heartstrings and I was filled with joy. I knew in my heart that healing had come supernaturally.

On the morning of the angiogram, I partook of the Holy Communion and felt that “something good” will be happening. My cardiologist was surprised by the results. He had witnessed my heart “pumping well”, and found no signs of artery blockages, although they were present during the heart scans earlier. All glory to Jesus!

I believe that a miracle has happened to my heart. Truly, Jesus will do the needful to preserve my perfect health.

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for sharing and teaching about partaking of the Holy Communion. By grace, I know that I will continue to enjoy divine health. The devil may cause a slight diversion, but I will always remain perfectly whole and safe in Christ Jesus. Amen!

Back Pain Healed

I have been in Singapore for the past three months and attend service at the Shine Auditorium on a regular basis. Two weeks ago, I hurt my back just before I was setting out for Sunday service. However, I was determined to get to church and not let the enemy prevent me from being there, as the understanding of Jesus’ finished work has become a source of life that refreshes and renews me!

That Sunday, the healing anointing was flowing so strongly after the Communion and Pastor Prince asked the congregation to stand up for prayer. As I stood up, I heard and felt an almighty “crunch” in my back. Before I could even ask the Lord for healing, I received my dear Father’s touch. I knew I was healed! Hallelujah!

I am so excited and so thankful that the Lord heals all my diseases and holds my bones in perfect alignment.

My husband and I are amazingly blessed to be part of this congregation and to be strengthened each week by Pastor Prince’s awesome teachings. We feel coming to this church is one of the main reasons we are here in Singapore! Thanks for all that you are doing and for making the gospel of grace so freely available to all.

Blocked Ear Healed!

One Thursday, my right ear felt blocked. At first, I thought it would go away after a few hours, but it didn’t. The next day, it was still there. I grew concerned and attempted to clean my ear of what I thought was excess ear wax. However, my ear seemed to be free from ear wax.

I started to pray to Daddy God for His healing. On the third day, I woke up feeling disappointed. I still had the blocked ear. By night time, the pressure in my right ear continued to build up and I started to experience dizziness and nausea. I couldn’t focus or concentrate in studying for my exams. I spent some time talking to Daddy God, believing that He would heal me, just like how I have heard testimonies shared during Sunday services. I chose to believe that sooner or later, I would be healed!

By Sunday, I couldn’t stop worrying about my ear.  I made my way to service at Shine Auditorium like I usually do, and discovered that there was an extended praise and worship session. Towards the end of the session, Pastor Prince asked the congregation to place our hands on any areas of affliction. I was afraid, but I felt the Holy Spirit telling me not to be afraid and to believe in Him.

There and then, I felt a strange, hot, sensation in my right hand. So I lifted my right hand and cupped my right ear. After worship ended, my right ear was still blocked. Still, something inside me was telling me not to worry and to wait upon the Lord.

During the rest of the service, all my worries about my hearing problem disappeared. I felt light and free, and was not aware of any discomfort in my ear. When I went home that day, I suddenly realised that my right ear was no longer blocked! I did not even realise when the healing took place! Praise God!

Although the Lord did not heal me immediately, I am amazed at how efficient our God is, and for hearing my prayers. Amazing is He, the One who is always so faithful and loving. Thank You, Father God! Hallelujah!

No “Stroke Effects”

On 15 January 2012, I attended service at the Shine Auditorium prior to my flight to Shanghai. That Sunday, Pastor Prince conducted a healing service, and specifically prayed for someone in the congregation who had difficulties resting at night.

I was amazed that Jesus was aware of my situation and the healing service comforted me. I also claimed God’s healing for myself.

During my flight to Shanghai, I was able to sleep well and felt rested for the first time in 
a long time! I arrived at my hotel, had a quick workout in the gym, and was even fresh and alert throughout my meetings. I knew that this was possible only because the Lord is with me, and for the healing session that had happened.

Five days later, I was scheduled to return to Singapore. About one and a half hours into the flight, I was awoken by the flight attendants. They suspected that I had a stroke and after a check by two nurses, they confirmed that I had stroke symptoms. When we touched down at the airport, I was sent straight to a hospital.

Although the CT scan showed evidence of a heart attack (extensive infarctions in my acute right middle cerebral territory), I was otherwise unharmed!

The doctors were amazed that there was no left side weakness at all. My friend, who is a doctor, also went through the report and said that it was indeed a miracle that the stroke did not damage my body coordination and functions.

I know that no enemy can come near me because the Lord is with me! Thank you, Pastor Prince, for the timely healing service. Since my discharge from the hospital, my recovery has been well. Even the doctors are amazed! Thank You Jesus! All praise and glory to You, Lord!

Jesus Healed Her Skin Rash

Prior to 2004, I did not have sensitive skin or any skin allergies. However, in 2004, a persistent rash came upon me. I saw three different doctors who diagnosed my condition as chronic urticarial (an itchy rash condition). Some people live with it for months or even years, and I was told that I might have to live with it for life!

Since then, I had to take oral medication daily to curb the condition. If I went without medication, red patches of rashes would appear and the itch would spread all over me.

I began confessing daily that Jesus had cleansed me and that His blood has made me righteously spotless, but nothing happened. Soon, I grew sick and tired of having to pop pills into my mouth as I did not want to be dependent on them.

One day, the Holy Spirit showed me that the root of this condition began with my thought life. I used to think that I had this infirmity because my blood was unclean!

Last year in 2011, I read a newspaper article about my condition. Somehow, I was inspired by the Spirit to keep the write-up and to declare and proclaim healing upon myself. Sometime later, it struck me that I had not taken my medication for over a month but my skin stayed rash-free. It was then that the visible manifestation and reality of God’s Word hit me — I had been healed to the fullest!

For the past seven years, I had to take medicine daily. But in the year of His crowned goodness, my hundredfold healing came! Words cannot describe how grateful I am to Him who did a perfect finished work in me! Praise the Lord!

Strength Renewed After Meditation

I am an avid runner and have participated in several marathons both in Singapore and Malaysia. I was slated to compete in an international marathon in November 2011.

Four days before the marathon, I was admitted to the hospital due to acute stomach pain. After a scan, the doctor said that it was a serious case of constipation and prescribed some medicine. However, the pain worsened the next day, and I could not walk or move my bowels!

I really wanted to compete in the marathon. I prayed to the Lord, but the pain didn’t go away immediately. On the third day, the pain became more bearable and I drove to the competition site in Malaysia. By grace, I made it to the starting line with only three to four hours of rest!

I recalled Pastor Prince's sermon about releasing the power of God's Word through meditation. Throughout the run, I kept meditating on Isaiah 40. I trusted that the Lord would renew my strength, and that I would run and not be weary.

Amazingly, I hit the 30km mark after four hours! I only had 12km left to go! I continued to meditate but had sudden doubts about being able to cross the finishing line. My legs started to ache and cramp. Suddenly, the Lord showed me a picture of the disciple Peter walking on water, and my strength returned. I kept looking to Jesus’ finished work on the cross and eventually finished the race!

Although I did not finish the race with my best timing, it was one of the best races as I enjoyed it with Jesus. After the race, another miracle happened! That night, I was also healed of constipation. It was a “wonderful release” indeed! Praise the Lord!

Since then, I have been totally healed and have no problems with my stomach. Thank you Pastor Prince! I have been enjoying Jesus more and more ever since coming to NCC in May 2011. As Jesus is, so am I in this world! Thank you Jesus!

No More Blocked Artery!

On 28 August 2011, my husband was reading the newspapers when he felt severe pain in his heart. We rushed him to the hospital, and the doctor put him through an electrocardiogram (ECG), a chest X-ray and a blood test.

Though worried and scared, I remembered what Pastor Prince shared about praying — he said that we need not say “extravagant” prayers but can simply call on the name of Jesus, if we don't know what to pray for. I repeatedly called out to Jesus in my heart, and declared that no plague, illness, sickness or disease can ever come near us. I also applied the anointing oil on my husband and prayed for him.

The scan results showed positive for ischemia, indicating that there is insufficient blood supply to my husband’s organ. Doctors revealed that his artery was dangerously blocked at 64 per cent.

My husband was referred to a cardiologist. Based on the scans, the cardiologist deduced that there could be more than one blocked artery! I rejected the negative report in my heart and believed that only God has the final say in my husband’s situation.

After more tests, my husband was scheduled for a coronary angiography (a specialised X-ray test) on 2 September 2011. The night before, my husband partook of the Holy Communion and claimed the promise in 1 Peter 2 that by Jesus’ stripes, he is healed. Amazingly, the final results showed that no stent implantation was required as Daddy God had unblocked his artery from 64 per cent to 25 per cent! There were no multiple blocked arteries. All glory to Jesus!

Doctors also advised my husband, who is a long-time smoker, to cut down on his smoking because smoking increases the chance of developing a coronary artery disease. I remembered testimonies Pastor Prince had shared about believers who had quit smoking effortlessly by declaring and believing that they are the “righteousness of God in Christ”. I encouraged my husband to do the same, and since then, he has stopped smoking! Indeed, with God, all things are possible!

Persistent Backache Healed

I was having a persistent backache in February 2011. For a week, it was just getting worse, especially after sitting down on my office chair or after a workout in the gym.

That week, I went for GenRev service on Saturday and Pastor Benjamin preached that there is power to save by simply listening to the Word. I decided to start listening to the Word and giving weight to the sermons that I was listening to, instead of just letting the words pass me by.

The next day, I read Pastor Prince’s daily devotional which also shared on Romans 1:16, that it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes. I was reminded once more of what Pastor Benjamin shared at the GenRev service.

Then, I went for the English service at the Rock Auditorium. I remembered I was still feeling discomfort in my lower back, and the pain was increasing as the service went on. But as I sat there listening to the Word, my heart was slowly filled with faith and I was enjoying the Lord’s grace and forgiveness. The sermon came to a point where Pastor Prince asked the congregation to receive healing. I recalled he said something along the lines of, “If Jesus and us are one flesh, how can we then not be healthy?” I raised my hands and received my healing. I was keenly observing my body for a warm sensation or a ‘click’ sound in my body. There was none. But by the end of the service, I realised that my body was completely healed of backache!

In the next few days, there were slight symptoms of the pain returning but I kept on listening to the Word and partaking of the Holy Communion. Soon, I even forgot about the ache, until I realised that it was no longer there. Thank you, Pastor Prince and Pastor Benjamin, for reminding me to give weight to the hearing of the Word. It is indeed the power of God to save!

Son’s Incarcerated Hernia Healed!

On 14 May 2010, my 17-month-old son was rushed to the pediatrician because he was crying non-stop for two hours, as if he was in pain. The pediatrician suggested that we admit him to the hospital immediately.

At the hospital, my son’s X-ray was taken but the doctor could not identify the problem. My mother, who used to be a nurse, then felt prompted to check my son’s body. She found big lumps at his pelvic area and suspected that it was hernia. When I heard that, my heart dropped. I prayed to God and believed that because Jesus loves my family, He will help us.

I applied the anointing oil on my son and prayed in tongues. By then, he looked tired and worn out, yet he could not sleep due to the pain. I just carried him around the room and continued to pray in tongues. By the time the surgeon came, my son had fallen asleep. The surgeon explained that the hernia is caused by the small intestines being displaced because a tract was open. There were two possible scenarios. First, if the intestines were stuck in the tract, they might be damaged and a major surgery has to be carried out, to cut the intestines and re-join them. Second, if the intestines could slip back into position by themselves, my son would only need a minor procedure to close up the tract.

After explaining, the surgeon opened up my son’s diapers to check the lumps at his pelvic area. Praise God, the lumps were gone! The surgeon said that the intestines had probably slipped back into position by themselves. I was so relieved! The surgeon suggested that we proceed with the minor surgery to close up the tract to prevent any further complications. Praise God that because my son was already asleep, he went through the general anesthesia without any struggle. The minor procedure only lasted 20 minutes.

The next morning, my son woke up, smiled, and started playing as usual, as if nothing had happened the night before. When the surgeon came in to examine him, he told us that when he operated on my son, he found blood stains in my son’s hernia sac. This meant that my son’s intestines were stuck, which explained his acute pain. The surgeon then said that somehow, the intestines went back by themselves when my son fell asleep. Praise the Lord! I know Jesus was the one who had put the intestines back in position and healed my son. One day later, we were all able to go on a family holiday that we had planned beforehand and we enjoyed ourselves thoroughly. All glory to Jesus!

Kidney Stone Removed Supernaturally

On 16 January 2011, I was on my way home from church when I developed a severe pain in my side. The pain was unbearable and I had to take a pain relief tablet when I reached home before it subsided.

When I went to work the next day, the pain came back again and it got worse in the evening. I went to see a doctor because I was unable to sit or stand. After the doctor had examined me, he sent me for an X-ray. The X-ray results showed a large, 7mm kidney stone. The doctor told me that because of its size, it is not possible to dissolve the stone using medication. It could only be removed by laser dispersion. He prescribed some painkillers for me and gave me an appointment to see a specialist on 21 January 2011.

Over the next few days, my wife and I called on the name of the Lord and partook of the Holy Communion as often as we could. We applied the anointing oil and put our trust in Jesus’ finished work rather than the doctor’s reports.

We also informed a few of our fellow believers and asked them to stand in faith with us. My care group leader also prayed over the phone with me. We were strengthened and encouraged to know that Jesus is with us and His presence is so real. By then, the pain was gone and I knew my miracle had happened — Jesus, our chief cornerstone, had cast it out!

On 21 January 2011, the specialist examined me and decided to put me through a CT scan. I held on to the Lord’s promise that by His righteous wounds I am healed, and that the stone is removed.

Jesus proved that His truth prevails! The specialist told me that the scan showed no trace of the kidney stone! I shouted and praised the Lord on the spot. I shared this good news with my wife immediately and we both rejoiced, trembling at God’s goodness.

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for the anointed messages we hear every week. We are blessed, encouraged and strengthened by the Word of Christ!

God Restored Her Fractured Hand

On 14 February 2011, I fell and hurt my left hand. There was still pain and swelling after a week, so I consulted an orthopaedic specialist. An X-ray was taken and the specialist told me that some of my bones were fractured and bent. He also said that I needed an operation immediately to prevent further damage. As my husband was away, I asked the doctor to postpone my surgery by two days.

I felt very fearful and upset. I told God that I really did not want to undergo the surgery as I was supposed to go for a family holiday the following week. That night, a couple from church suggested that I seek a second opinion. By God’s grace and favour, they managed to help me secure an appointment on Friday, the same day that I was scheduled for my operation.

I spent Thursday listening to God’s Word, partaking of the Holy Communion, anointing myself with oil and speaking in tongues, especially when I was troubled and could not sleep. My children also stood in faith with me, partook of the Holy Communion and anointed me with oil. I also read Pastor Prince’s Destined to Reign Devotional and the verse for that day was from Jeremiah 32:27, “Behold, I am the Lord, the God of all flesh. Is there anything too hard for Me?” I claimed the verse for my healing and told the Lord that it was certainly not too hard for Him to heal my hand. My healing was already paid at the cross when Jesus’ hands were pierced for my sake. I also remembered that Jesus healed the man with the withered hand in the Bible. Many miraculous healings had taken place in New Creation Church and I told Jesus that I also wanted to experience His healing touch.

At about 7am on Friday, I felt a tingling sensation in my left hand. I felt as if there were electric currents coursing through my mangled bones and tendons. I could feel that the bones were pulled into position and the tissues were rearranged layer by layer. I knew that Jesus was healing me miraculously and personally — my hand felt much better!

Before my husband and I stepped out for my appointment, we partook of the Holy Communion and claimed that surgery would not be needed. By the time I saw the specialist at 8.30am, the swelling and discolouration were gone. The specialist asked me to stretch my hand in several positions. Before that morning, I would not have been able to do all that. She then told me that a surgery was not necessary as the hand will heal completely in due time. Hallelujah! Jesus healed me! I do not need surgery and I can proceed with the planned family holiday!

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your teachings. The bread, wine and oil are powerful as they proclaim the finished work of Jesus and our healing! All glory to Jesus!

Aching Knee Joints Healed!

When I was in my early 20s, I started to hear loud cracking sounds from my knee joints whenever I walked or stretched my legs. It was so loud that the people around me would be able to hear the cracking sounds.

Since June 2010, my knees started developing acute pain when I walked for too long or when I bent my knees for more than 10 minutes. I would not be able to sit for too long. Long flights were my worst nightmares and I had to get up every 15 minutes to stretch my legs.

In December 2010, the pain in my knee joints worsened after a hiking trip in China. I was limping for a few days. At that time, I did not think of seeking the Lord for healing and just endured the pain.

Then on Sunday, 9 January 2011, I attended the fourth service and Pastor Prince led the congregation with a song and ministered healing over us. Pastor Prince mentioned that we could put our hands over our afflicted areas before we pray. At that time, I forgot about my knee problem so I placed my hand over my forehead. At the end of the prayer, Pastor Prince asked us to move our bodies to check for healing. That was when I remembered about my aching knees and when I bent my knees, there was no more cracking sound or pain. My knees were completely healed! All glory to Jesus for healing me!

Mother’s High Blood Pressure Lowered Significantly Overnight

My mother has been on long-term medication for high blood pressure for over 20 years. Once every three months, she has to go for a check-up at the polyclinic. When she went for her check-up yesterday, the nurses at the polyclinic were shocked to discover that my mother’s systolic blood pressure (SBP) had shot up to 202mmHg! As she was at a high risk of getting a stroke, they immediately sat her on a wheelchair and gave her some medication to bring her blood pressure down. After an hour, her SBP went down to 174mmHg. However to be on the safe side, her SBP had to be 140mmHg. The doctor diagnosed that she had just suffered a minor heart attack, and referred her to a hospital.

At the hospital, my mother had to go through a series of tests, and we were told to return to the hospital at 11.30pm. My husband, sons and I partook of the Holy Communion at home and prayed for my mother. We asked our Father to heal her and proclaimed Jesus’ finished work on the cross, believing that by His stripes, my mother will be healed even though she is not a believer. When we got to the hospital, we were told that my mother still needed another test, and we were to return at 1.30am. Though she could not leave the hospital, I knew in my heart that God had already healed her. At 1.30am, I applied some anointing oil on my fingers and prayed to God in my car before going in to see her. I also anointed my mother.

When the doctor came in with the test results, he told me that they could not believe how all the reports showed that my mother was almost 100 percent healthy! All the arteries to her heart were not blocked and they could not find any medical explanation for her test results, especially since she has had hypertension for over 20 years! In the end, he concluded that the heart attack was probably due to my mother’s age.

Earlier today, we received a call from my sister that my mother’s blood pressure monitor at home had registered an SBP reading of 111mmHg! Her usual reading is in the 150mmHg range. We’d prayed that my mother would be well enough not to be warded, but our heavenly Father over-answered our prayer! My mother’s blood pressure is now at a healthier level than before!

All glory to our heavenly Father!

Praise God! Lumps Are Not Cancerous

On 23 July 2009, I consulted my doctor regarding two lumps in my left breast which caused me some pain. I was prescribed two courses of antibiotics for a month. After completing the medication, I had a mammogram and two ultrasound tests. The results showed that the lumps were still there, and my greatest fear was that they were cancerous.

I decided to seek a second opinion. The second doctor suggested a needle biopsy due to the irregular shapes and sizes of the lumps. From his facial expression, I knew that he was concerned.

During those weeks of fear and anxiety, I listened to Pastor Prince’s CD on healing, and faithfully read from the Word and shared with my children that Jesus heals us of our sicknesses and diseases.

Two weeks ago, Pastor Gabriel and a sister-in-Christ also prayed for me on separate occasions. At the same time, I began to partake of the Holy Communion and apply the anointing oil on myself. I also started declaring, “By Jesus’ stripes, I’m healed,” and, “Jesus is my healer,” trusting that Jesus would heal me.

Before I went for my biopsy, I said, “Jesus, you take over.” On 17 September 2009, I went to the clinic to collect the results of my biopsy. The doctor said that both lumps were not cancerous and I did not require surgery to remove them! Jesus Christ is indeed our healer!

Supernatural Pregnancy!

I was diagnosed with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, a condition caused by female hormonal imbalance. When my husband and I decided to try for a baby, my gynaecologist put me on a fertility drug to regulate my hormones and improve our chances for conception. This went on for more than a year with no results.

As the desire to have a baby grew, I started noticing more and more pregnant women and mothers in our church. Before envy could take a hold of my emotions, I recalled Pastor Prince’s teachings and kept declaring that I was next in line for His blessing! During this time, my husband and I also upgraded to a bigger apartment, and believed God that He would bless us with a growing family to fill the rooms.

In October 2010, we were attending Sunday service at a cinema venue when Pastor Prince invited the congregation to stand to their feet. He asked us to believe the Lord for one thing and led us in prayer. As my husband and I held hands in agreement, I felt a tingling sensation in my right pelvic area. This was followed by a sense of “release”.

Three weeks later, I felt prompted to take out the pregnancy test kit. Although I was reluctant to relive past disappointments, I was quietly confident that the result would be different. And it was! A trip to the gynaecologist even revealed that the date of conception happened around the date of Pastor Prince’s message!

By the grace of God, I had a blessed pregnancy with no complications at all. My gynaecologist declared my baby a “textbook baby” as she met each developmental milestone with ease, but I know better! My baby was simply a “Jesus baby” as it is Jesus who gave us such a wonderful blessing!

Our precious daughter, Sarah Joy, was born in July 2011. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for challenging us to come boldly before Jesus. Preach it, pastor!

Healthy Baby Despite Negative Reports

Last Christmas, Pastor Prince told the church to write down three things that we were believing God for. As I was two months pregnant then, one of my prayer requests was for a smooth delivery and healthy baby.

However, my pregnancy has not been easy. During my first trimester check-up, the medical report wrote that my baby had a high risk of Down Syndrome.

My husband and I were totally shattered when we learnt about this. Our gynaecologist suggested we go for more tests to confirm the medical condition of our baby.

No words can describe how terrible and heartbroken we felt. After weeks of consideration, my husband and I decided not to go ahead with further tests, but to trust God for complete healing. We decided to keep our baby no matter what, as we knew that our baby was a gift from God.

Over the next few months, we continued to partake of the Holy Communion and prayed for our baby daily. We claimed healing promises (like Isaiah 53) over him and believed God for His miracle and healing.

In August 2011, I went through an emergency Caesarean birth. Miraculously, a healthy baby was born! Today, baby Nathan is not only healthy and normal, but also blessed with good looks!

We know that Jesus healed Nathan. We are truly thankful to God for baby Nathan and we want to give God the glory!

Restoration!

On 24 July 2011, my cousin was supposed to attend service with me but was feeling ill and down. I told her not to worry and assured her that I would partake of the Holy Communion on her behalf. I also sent her a text message and claimed healing for her over SMS.

That very night, my cousin told me that she was feeling much better and her spirit was uplifted. To be honest, I didn’t really have much faith when I was praying for her, but God was faithful in spite of my “lack of faith”! Praise Jesus!

That same Sunday, Pastor Lian was sharing about God’s restoration power and how He will restore all that has been robbed from our lives. Pastor Lian also shared about how she prayed for a young boy who had a tooth that turned grey after an incident. However, the Lord divinely restored his tooth and it “came back to life”.

The next day, I was cutting my toenails when I noticed that a toenail which has been black for years due to an injury had become normal again! Previously, it looked ugly and this used to bother me. However, the blackened toenail had become a part of me for so long that I had forgotten about it!

There and then, I remembered Pastor Lian’s sharing about the boy with the grey tooth and how God cares about every little detail of our lives. I’m still not used to my “new toenail”, but I’m excited about God’s restoration power and wonder what else God is going to restore in my life! Thank you Jesus.

Overcoming Guilt & Addictions

Set free from 40-year of smoking bondage

I became a Christian over 22 years ago. I believed I was zealous for the things of God, as I even took up Bible studies, though I did not graduate. However, I was reluctant to share the gospel with others as I was still smoking. I believed this would not be a good testimony to others.

I attempted to quit countless times, but to no avail. It reached a point where I felt overwhelmed by condemnation, leading to bitterness and strife consuming me. Eventually, I left my church. This was 12 years ago.

In early 2023, I bumped into a former church member. We started chatting, and he shared with me the gospel of grace. I was sceptical, but he assured me that what I might have heard about the gospel of grace was not the complete picture. He shared two of Pastor Prince's YouTube videos with me, advising me to watch them to the end.

After finishing the two videos, I immediately subscribed to become a gospel partner with Joseph Prince Ministries. Within one month of watching Pastor Prince's sermons, I decided to quit smoking again, this time by partaking of holy Communion daily and declaring, “I am the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus,” with every puff I smoked.

Within less than one month, I was completely delivered from 40 years of smoking bondage without any withdrawal symptoms. I was also set free from the grudges I used to hold onto.

Today, I am totally set free by the truth, and the joy of the Lord is fully manifested in me, to such an extent that all my friends started asking me about my changes, which gave me the opportunity to openly share the gospel of grace with them.

Today, Romans 1:16 comes alive to me: “For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes.” Thank you, Pastor Prince, for preaching the gospel faithfully. All glory and honour to our Lord Jesus Christ.

  • Overcoming Guilt & Addictions

 

Delivered from suicidal thoughts and self-harm

Growing up, I never knew who God was. But when I finally found Jesus, I realised that my perspectives on God were different from my parents'. I had no choice but to adhere to my parents' perspectives and rules. Every time I reminded myself that God loves me and He is merciful, people around me would tell me that I was not enough and that I would still end up in hell because of the sins I had committed.

Because of that, I lived in darkness and started to experience depression. I lived my life to please others, including my parents, and I attempted suicide twice and struggled with self-harm for two years.

Some years ago, I flew to Singapore to continue my studies, contemplating ending my life here. But I still harboured a dust-sized hope. So, I asked God to give me a reason to stay alive. It could be anything or anyone, or just a specific place that I would visit once a week.

I gave myself about a year, but before that day came, I met a godly Christian friend who introduced me to the truth and brought me to New Creation Church.

The first time I went to church with him, I learned about the gospel of grace, and it blew my mind. The second time I went to church, I felt a warm sensation that compelled me to pray to God and receive His grace. I felt something inside me urging me to pray in Jesus' name, so I did, and I felt so relieved afterwards. It felt like all my burdens and negative feelings were gone. It felt so light and beautiful. The third time I went to church, I joined in the worship, singing and praying in Jesus' name.

Gradually, I found hope and a reason to stay alive. I was no longer lost in the dark because I had found the light. Without realising it, my addiction to self-harm disappeared! I used to self-harm when I felt down and stressed, but now I always seek God's help first.

I have no more scars on my wrist. I don't need to cover my scars with make-up anymore. The voices in my head that kept telling me to end my life are also gone!

Knowing that Jesus loves me saved my life. He found me when I was lost. He's a good Shepherd. I am no longer a nobody; I am a child of God. I am thankful to Jesus and grateful for being loved and saved by Him.

Delivered from masturbation and pornography

For 10 years, I was addicted to masturbation and pornography. I'm 26 now, so I started when I was 16. I fought with all my strength to leave my addictions, but never succeeded. Each time I tried, I dove back inside. 

Some time ago, I listened to one of Pastor Prince’s messages on the assurance of salvation. I realised that Jesus loves me and that God does not see me as a sinner but as His righteousness in Christ Jesus.

I proclaimed these truths in my life and am now completely free from my addictions. 

Pastor Prince also said that true deliverance is losing all desire for sin and this happens through the Holy Spirit. I really experienced this, and have lost all desire for masturbation and pornography. 

I keep listening to Pastor Prince’s messages and it reminds me that I am the beloved son of God and the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. My life has been transformed.

Thank you, Jesus!

Left adulterous lifestyle and marriage restored

I grew up in a Christian family and have attended church since childhood. However, that did not stop me from getting into pornography and masturbation since I was nine. For close to 40 years, I was bound by it.

This greatly affected my marriage and gradually led me to commit adultery. I tried to hide my sin and lived a double life. But after about a year or so, the weight of sin and guilt was so great that I wanted to end my life. I flew to a nearby country without my wife’s knowing, with plans to take my life.

As my “final confession”, I texted my wife when I was away and confessed my infidelity. It devastated her, but she still encouraged me to return to God and return home so we could discuss things. I refused to, as I felt I could no longer face her and God.

In the hotel room one night, God led me to watch messages about His grace, and I began to cry and think of how I had let God and my wife down.

I texted my wife the following day and told her I would return home. I was prepared for her to ask for a divorce, but I thank God she was willing to forgive me.

Back in Singapore, I committed to being accountable to a group of close brothers and my family. My wife and I also attended counselling sessions.

We kept listening to the words of grace from New Creation Church. I thank God for the constant reminder that we are to look to Jesus and not ourselves, and that His grace is more than enough for us.

That year, we also went on an Israel trip with the church. The pastor in charge of the group knew of our situation and kept encouraging us. We had the opportunity to renew our vows at the Garden Tomb, and the pastor and his wife also prayed over us.

It has been four years since then, and I thank God that He has restored our marriage to greater glory.

Today, my wife and I enjoy doing activities together, and I’m constantly reminded of how blessed I am to have my wife. I’ve also been set free from my 40-year bondage to pornography and masturbation. Praise the Lord!

Thank you, Pastor Prince and New Creation Church, for constantly revealing Jesus to us!

Delivered from 40 years of pot and nicotine addiction

I grew up with a very abusive and toxic childhood, and adulthood wasn’t any better. As I tried to get my abusers to love me and see that I was a good person, I ended up smoking cigarettes and pot at 12. I also went through a series of emotionally isolating and abusive relationships with friends and men I dated. I was stuck in cycles of shame, self-sabotage, and condemnation.

I started watching Joseph Prince Ministries a few years ago and gave my life to Christ as a result of hearing the messages about God’s grace and Jesus’ finished work on the cross. I’m happy to report that after years of trying to get freedom and healing on my own, I have been delivered from 40 years of pot and nicotine addiction after learning about the unconditional love Father God has for me and Jesus’ love demonstrated by His life, death, and resurrection. I was also delivered from a dangerous relationship.

A few months ago, I suffered from pain in my knees and other parts of my body. I continued to pray and receive Communion daily. While watching one of Pastor Prince’s broadcast messages, where he preached about Jesus being the payment for our health, he mentioned that God was healing someone’s knees of pain. I whispered to myself with excitement saying, “That’s my healing. Glory be to God, amen!”

Immediately, my knees began to feel better, but they were still stiff. Two days later, I noticed the stiffness was almost completely gone when I walked around. Thank You, Jesus. Thank you, Pastor Prince. May God continue to bless your ministry without limits!

Adan J Rangel from Mexico

Since I was 17 years old, I started using drugs. Prior to that, I was already watching porn. At 23 years old, I received Christ as Saviour. However, I continued to struggle with my addictions, even after I got married.

I even stopped going to church for a few years. In 2014, I first heard Pastor Joseph Prince’s message of grace. I was still an addict then, and would often get high on drugs before going to church.

I even hit rock bottom, without any control over my addictions. But I remembered Pastor Prince talk about confessing that we are the righteousness of God in Christ.

I constantly reminded myself not to judge myself based on my conditions but continue to confess that I am the righteousness of God in Christ, and that I am anointed, chosen, and forgiven in Him.

After six months of right believing, my drug addiction of 10 years completely disappeared. Every time I am tempted to fall into sin, I also remember that as He is, so am I in this world. When I finally realised my identity in Christ, all of my other addictions left me. I felt weird at first. What used to give me pleasure, such as a cigarette, no longer had the same effect on me.

I did not do anything to help myself, but the Lord did it anyway. All glory to Him! Today, I am serving at my church in Mexico, and living a set-free life!

Delivered from alcoholism

A few years ago, my father passed away very suddenly  and I was completely bereft. I turned to alcohol to get through the dark days. I would drink to the point of not being able to remember things the next day. I was so ashamed of my behaviour, but no matter how hard I tried, I simply could not stop.

I have been a Christian since childhood. In this dark time, I would beg the Lord for help and attend Christian conferences, seeking prayer for deliverance, but nothing worked.

A year after my dad's passing and in the throes of a serious alcohol problem, I started listening to Pastor Prince’s sermons on YouTube. Then, I came across Pastor Prince’s sermon titled, "Five Words To Live By (The Battle Is The Lord's)”.

 

In the message, Pastor Prince taught from the life of King Jehoshaphat and said that whatever battle we are fighting, including addictions, it was not ours to fight, but God's. He also mentioned how our natural tendency is to do something, but God wants us to hold our peace and let Him do all the work so that He gets all the glory. That sermon changed my life! I have listened to it so many times that I literally know the whole sermon by heart, word for word.

 

My situation did not change immediately. I continued to drink heavily, but regardless, I held on for dear life to the teachings in this sermon. Every time I drank, I would confess that this battle belongs to God and my eyes are on my heavenly Father.

 

I also bought Pastor Prince’s book Destined To Reign after hearing him share a testimony of a brother who was delivered from smoking after reading the book. I started to declare that there was no more condemnation in my life, and that I'm perfectly righteous in Christ, even if I felt completely wretched and ashamed for failing yet again.

Then, one day, all of a sudden, I lost the desire to drink. Just like that. All the desire left! It was exactly what Pastor Prince mentioned that true deliverance is not you fighting the desire in you; but it is when the desire leaves. Hallelujah! Now it no longer matters whether there is alcohol around me. Other people might be drinking, but I am completely indifferent to it.

What freedom! Pastor Prince, that sermon of yours needs to be shared at every alcoholics anonymous meeting worldwide! I'm so happy to be partnering with your amazing ministry so that these life-changing messages can reach other people in their times of darkness.

16-Year Smoking Addiction Broken

I had my first cigarette when I was in secondary school. During my time in the army, I started to smoke more, and even more when I started working as a chef.

For 16 years, I would smoke at least one pack of cigarettes a day. Working in the food and beverage industry is very tiring, and I always used smoking as an excuse to take a break. We would often say that we are “taking a step outside for some fresh air”, which is ironic. As the years went by, my sense of taste slowly diminished, which became very worrying for me.

Eventually, I left my job to start my own business, but very quickly became even more stressed than before. I would smoke whenever I had a mental block.

As a Christian, I also felt that I was being a bad testimony to my staff. I tried quitting many times, but I failed. I felt defeated and smoked even more. I was also afraid that if I quit, I would lose my focus at work or the chance to mingle with my team while they smoked. Over time, I gave up trying to quit.

However, as I listened to testimonies in church, I knew that our heavenly Father wants us to enjoy victory in life. I started listening to Pastor Prince's sermons on Gospel Partner every day, and I felt Jesus becoming more and more real in my life.

I started to partake of the holy Communion before starting my day. At the same time, I would ask Jesus to show me His grace and favour. I began to realise that my Father in heaven has a grand plan for me, and Jesus is on my side for absolutely everything in my life. Gradually, I began to see His grace and favour in my business, health, and relationships.

One day, when I was smoking with my team, I told them that I didn’t feel like smoking any longer. I wasn't even trying to quit, but since then, the Lord Jesus has broken this addiction that had kept me bound for 16 years!

Now, I taste and smell better, and I enjoy my food more. I no longer feel the need to relieve my stress through smoking. In fact, I am enjoying a greater peace after becoming more cognisant of my Lord Jesus in my life. Today, I look forward to discovering the Word through Pastor Prince's messages.

Thank You, Jesus, for taking away my addiction to smoking and filling my life with peace and purpose. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for preaching the gospel of grace.

Life transformed from glory to glory

I received Christ when I was 19 years old, but I didn’t enjoy a close relationship with God. I always felt condemned just like the Samaritan woman whom Jesus met at the well.

Although I didn’t have five husbands like her, I had two. I went through two failed marriages and was constantly looking for love in all the wrong places. I led a decadent life—heavily abusing drugs and alcohol. Back then, I seldom stepped out of the house in the day as I felt ashamed of my life.

But God took my life and turned it around when I came to New Creation Church and heard Pastor Prince preach about the Samaritan woman. That message filled the void in my heart and I decided to surrender my life to Jesus. I also asked Jesus to make me a testimony for His glory. 

I left the nightlife and started attending New Creation Church regularly. I also kept listening to Pastor Prince’s sermons. Shortly after, the Lord took away my drug and alcohol addictions, and eventually, my smoking addiction as well.

Then, by God’s grace, I was offered a job as a case worker in a halfway house. Though I was the youngest and most inexperienced staff, the Lord’s favour was upon me. Within five years, I was promoted to become the executive director and today, I have also started a social enterprise to help other ex-drug offenders.

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for preaching the gospel of grace and showing me who I am in Christ. Through your teachings, I have found the strength and boldness to shine for Jesus. Thank you!

Free from Alcohol Addiction, Relationship with Children Restored

My children had been taken away from me in 1983. Their mother married another man who adopted my children, and they tried to prevent me from seeing them again.  

One night, I was pretty intoxicated and feeling depressed. I remember feeling like I was all alone with absolutely nobody to help me or understand the pain I was going through. I was even contemplating suicide. 

That night I tuned in to Pastor Prince’s sermon. When I heard his sermon, I began to sob uncontrollably and fell to the floor on my knees, begging God to take my life as I truly didn’t want to suffer one more day without my children. I went to bed that night still feeling depressed and hopeless. 

The next morning, I got up to start drinking as usual and fixed my first drink of the day—beer and tomato juice. When I tried to take a sip, I found that I couldn’t stand the smell or taste of alcohol. I tried again with just beer and still couldn’t stand the smell or taste of it. I’ve never taken another drink since that day and still cannot stand the smell of alcohol to this day. 

That was just the beginning of my life transformation. The Lord’s grace restored to me everything I’d lost over the past years, plus extra. The Lord also gave me grace to get my driver’s license reinstated and my social security disability benefits approved within 2 weeks. Within a month, I reconnected with my children on social media and am enjoying a very close and loving relationship with them today.

Set free from 35 years of porn addiction

I had been addicted to watching pornography for more than thirty-five years. It was something I did every day, seven times a day on average. I’d tried for decades to end it, but I just got deeper and deeper into it.

One day, I listened to Pastor Prince’s sermon where he encouraged us to declare our righteousness in Christ, all while trusting the Lord for deliverance from our addictions. At first, it didn’t sit very well with me, especially when I said it during and after I watched porn.

After doing this for some time, the chains of addiction that had plagued me were miraculously broken, and I am well and truly free! John 8:31 says, “And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” I found the truth through what God’s promises says about me despite the facts of my situation. Truly, where sin abounds, grace super-abounds!

Keep preaching, Pastor Prince!

Free from Anxiety and Pornography Addiction

Pastor Prince, I would like to thank you for sharing the gospel of grace without compromise. I’ve experienced many great victories since listening to your preaching. I’m thankful that my parents would play your television program when I was younger because when I went through a tough time a few years ago, I remembered you and started watching your videos on YouTube. 

This was during a time in college when I was struggling with anxiety and sleeplessness. I also questioned my salvation. It was a fear that never really went away since accepting Jesus as my Savior when I was a child.  

As I listened to your sermons and read your books, I started to experience amazing peace. I am now confident that my salvation can never be taken away from me! I’m reminded every day of my eternal salvation whenever I partake of the Lord’s Supper and celebrate how I am washed completely clean by the blood of Jesus. I’ve also stopped watching porn effortlessly, a habit that used to make me feel so dirty and guilty. 

Through your teachings on living the let-go life and praying in the Spirit, anxiety doesn’t have a hold on me anymore! I’m excited to see more changes in my life as I grow in the knowledge of my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Marriage Transformed, Delivered from Vices

I was raised in church but never really understood what it meant to be a Christian. When I left my hometown to further my studies, I started to smoke, drink, and gamble. I even became addicted to pornography.  

Eventually, I got married and we had a baby boy. To support my family, I had to work overseas. When I was abroad, things grew worse. I started living in adultery, and my wife also got involved with another man. That crushed me. I was so hurt and felt that my life had no more meaning. Nonetheless, for the sake of my son, I still applied for my family to join me in Canada.  

Months after we reunited, my love for my wife was rekindled. However, the pain and hurt were still present. I realized that I needed God’s intervention, and we started going to church where we learned to forgive each other.  

One day, I came across Pastor Prince’s sermons on YouTube. His preaching was so profound yet straight to the point. I had never heard anyone share such amazing revelations and anointed words that imparted grace to listeners. I have learned a lot from Pastor Prince, including being conscious that we have been made the righteousness of God in Christ. I would listen to his sermons all day long.  

Since then, I have been delivered from my drunkenness, stubbornness, and sexual immorality. My physical body has also gotten stronger after discerning the Lord’s body as I partake of the holy Communion daily. My wife was even healed of scoliosis without any surgery!   

We have also been practicing the Lord’s presence and love together. Now, our marriage is completely restored. Today whenever I am asked to share the Word of God, I make sure my message only points to Jesus, the reason for our living, and nothing else.  

All glory and praise to the Lord! Thank you, Pastor Prince, and New Creation Church!

Living in Victory over Sexual Addictions

I was addicted to masturbation and pornography because I suffered from rejection by my peers, and felt unloved. Even though I was a believer and wanted to live a life that glorified God, I couldn’t find a way to do that in my own strength. I cried myself to sleep because of the loneliness I felt. This made me indulge in sin even more as I felt like there was no way for me to stop, and no one cared about me anyway. 
When I heard Pastor Prince preach on how the Lord has forgiven all our sins—past, present, and future—it struck a chord with me. It didn’t happen immediately, but after a month of watching Pastor Prince’s videos, being reminded and confessing that I am the righteousness of God in Christ, all the bondages in my life were broken.  

I no longer want to indulge in masturbation and pornography, and I am living every day knowing that my Daddy God loves me with an everlasting love. I’m now living in victory over my addictions and enjoying life every day. 

Thank you so much, Lord, for raising Pastor Prince. The revelation of forgiveness of sins doesn’t make me want to sin more; it makes me love Jesus more than ever!

Smoking Addiction of 14 Years Broken

I started attending New Creation Church and received Christ as my Lord and Savior when I was 23 years old. Since then, the Lord has poured countless blessings into my life and completely exceeded my expectations.

However, there was an addiction I couldn’t seem to get rid of. At the age of 16, I started smoking and became bound by the habit. The addiction got so bad I often started and ended my day with a cigarette. When I was stressed and burdened, my first response was to smoke. 

Even when I was resting, I would want to smoke. I tried to quit many times, but I could not make it past 2 days. Every time I tried and failed, I would condemn myself and feel guilty. Some of my well-meaning friends and family members would also add to my sense of condemnation by saying things like, “You’re not giving glory to God when you smoke.” 

Last year, I decided to try to stop smoking again. However, during the middle of the week, I gave in to temptation and ended up smoking even more than before. This time, though, I practiced what Pastor Prince always taught: speak and declare that I am the righteousness of God in Christ, even in the midst of my addiction. 

So I spoke and believed that I am the righteousness of God in Christ even when I smoked. Whenever I did that, I felt like a hypocrite, but I just kept declaring and resting in the truth that I was righteous in Christ despite my actions. At the end of that week, I smoked my last pack of cigarettes and asked the Lord to not let the craving return. 

It has been a year, and I no longer have a craving to smoke cigarettes! For 7 years, I had been believing and hoping for deliverance in this area. In less than 7 days of declaring the truth of my righteousness in Christ, deliverance came—without any withdrawal symptoms! 

Thank You, Lord Jesus. I am finally free of my smoking addiction after 14 years!

From Rebellious Teenager to Excelling in Studies

I was a problem teenager. I hated studying and was addicted to pornography. I also had a bad relationship with my family and always had conflicts with my high school teachers. I disrespected my teachers and would often play truant.  

When I didn’t do well in my examinations and didn’t receive offers from any university, I started giving up on my life, wasting days doing nothing but playing video games or watching pornography. I felt like a failure. But thank God He did not give up on me even when I’d abandoned everything. 

One night during dinner, my father was listening to Pastor Prince’s sermon. It was different from anything I’d heard before. No one had told me that I am the righteousness of God in Christ and that all my sins had been forgiven. I felt peace inside me, and I began to listen to Pastor Prince’s sermons too. The more I heard the message of grace, the more I understood God was not against me but for me, and in Him there is therefore now no more condemnation. When I believed right, I started to live right. 

The Lord freed me from my addiction to pornography, and I started on my advanced studies. As I rested in Jesus, He gave me the strength to work hard. By God’s grace, I received offers from 2 universities! 

Thank You, Jesus, for finding me. And thank you, Pastor Prince, for sharing the message of grace. I now know we can reign in life through the Lord’s grace!

Delivered from Years of Sexual Addiction

I had been addicted to pornography and masturbation since I was 9 years old. I was so bound by this addiction that at one point, I even visited a prostitute. I still remember weeping bitter tears after that because I knew I had messed up.  

For many years, I would hear Pastor Prince preach about how sin loses its power on us when we start to live under grace. I could never understand how to apply that to my life and thought I just had to manage my sinful addiction for the rest of my life.  

Whenever Pastor Prince read out testimonies of people who have been set free from porn addiction, I would ask the Lord, “When is it my turn? Why are other people receiving their breakthroughs but not me?”  

When others would lift up their hands during worship, I always felt ashamed to do it too as I would feel like a hypocrite. Looking back now, the Lord was always near to me and was mending my broken heart.  

One night, as I was on my way home in a cab, I felt the Lord’s presence touching me. I felt His love filling the crevices of my heart. Just like how Jesus set the Gerasene demoniac free, the Lord came to me and clothed me with the garments of His salvation and His robe of righteousness. I started to weep uncontrollably in the cab.  

I finally understood what Pastor Prince meant when he said that grace is a person. The revelation of grace is the revelation of Jesus! As I continued to behold the Lord, my life transformed, not by self-effort but by freely receiving the abundance of grace and gift of righteousness. It has been nearly 3 years since the Lord has set me free from my addiction! 

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for boldly preaching the gospel of grace. It has changed my life forever! God bless you.

Delivered from 28-Year Porn Addiction

I had been addicted to watching pornography for 28 years. Even as a child of God, I struggled with this regularly. In 2007, my wife discovered Joseph Prince Ministries and was deeply touched. At that point, I had completely lost control over my addiction. So I watched Joseph’s sermons every day and would even study the Hebrew and Greek words taught in the messages. 

Within a year, the Lord’s grace became real to me. I began watching pornography less and less, till the frequency became only once a year. I remember listening to a CD sermon, and Pastor Prince talked about how indulging in pornography makes one’s wife become less attractive in one’s mind.  

When I heard this, I fell to the ground weeping. In that moment, I heard the Lord speak to me, “Every time you watched pornography, I was there. And I love you more than you can imagine.” Knowing I was loved even in the midst of my addiction set me free. 

I have now been set free from pornography for 8 years! Today I mentor others who are currently struggling with pornography addictions in my church.  

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for all that you do.

Free from Drug and Alcohol Addiction, Reunited with Children

I just want to start off by saying I’m so grateful for Joseph Prince’s broadcast program. I watch it all day, every day. It delights me to watch Pastor Prince’s sermons. Jesus has changed my life. 

I had been addicted to drugs and alcohol since the age of 15. I have 6 children and 4 years ago, I lost my 3 youngest children to foster care due to my drug abuse. That was what it took for God to wake me up and help me realize what really matters—Jesus. Because of Jesus being taught to me in truth by Pastor Prince, I was able to surrender to the Lord’s call on my life. 

I went to a Christian-based rehab and was able to get my children back. The Lord also blessed me with a car, job, somewhere to live with my children, and people who care for us. The Lord has also recently laid on my heart that He is going to bless us with a home of our own. Praise the Lord! 

I never knew God loves me as much as He loves Jesus until I began to constantly listen to Pastor Prince’s sermons. I’m so grateful for the gospel of grace being revived. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for sharing your revelations and truths of the gospel. 

All praise and glory to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen!

Free from Pornography Addiction and Depression

When I was in high school, I struggled with pornography addiction. I was also depressed and had no direction in life. I had a religious background but didn’t know about the grace of God. My relationship with God was based on my works and self-righteousness. I kept trying to live right before God but always failed.  

When I turned 25, I started watching Pastor Prince’s sermons on YouTube. Hearing the true gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ changed my life forever! As I believed right, I experienced heart transformation. When I depended on Christ’s love for me, I no longer desired to watch pornography daily.  

I thought it was impossible to break free from the bondage of this sinful pattern. Pornography, depression, and fear had been such a bondage for me, but knowing Jesus Christ took all my sins and judgement at the cross broke this sinful habit! When I believed that I am the righteousness of God in Christ, my heart changed to loving God and others. Today, I’ve been free from pornography addiction and depression medicine for over 2 years! 

I went from waking up to watch porn—and would watch it 2 to 3 times a day—to waking up wanting to study God’s Word daily. I now delight in reading the Bible and find it hard to put it down even after reading it for hours on end! All glory goes to our Lord Jesus Christ and His divine work for us at the cross. His love has changed me—from living in sin and depression to waking up with joy and peace in my soul and fully enjoying every day. 

As I depend on His love for me, life is worth the living. I now look forward to spending eternity with God and Christ Jesus in heaven! After living 13 years in sinful bondage, I am now free. I’m living in newness of life and am full of joy in the Holy Spirit. With man it’s impossible, but with God all things are possible! 

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your beautiful and amazing ministry. I hope this testimony helps others who need the good news of our Lord Jesus Christ!

Delivered from Addictions, Family Restored

Pastor Prince, I first heard about your ministry some years ago when I was locked up in prison. My mother shared with me about your teachings on the gospel of grace and God’s love for me. I would love to tell you that when I got released from prison I ran back to God and started living right, but I did no such thing.  

Drugs and alcohol had such a hold on my life that it seemed as though I would die with a needle in my arm or a bottle in my hand or both. After many bad decisions, I was at a place where I had reached rock bottom. I had failed at being a wife, mother, daughter, friend, and person. I was completely lost and broken. 

One day, I remembered your sermons and began to watch them daily. They filled me with the hope and knowledge that Jesus loves me and died for my sins so that I can be brought into His family. I realized that God was not angry with me and loves me more than I can imagine.  

Today I have been free from heroin for 2 years and alcohol for over a year. I have seen my life change dramatically just by trusting in God and being conscious of His love for me instead of being conscious of my sins. The Lord is continually changing me from the inside out and helping me grow.  

My relationship with my parents and son have been restored in full. I also have a wonderful, godly man in my life who prays for me and watches your sermons together with me. We plan on getting married and buying a house soon. I’m also planning to go back to school to become a paralegal and help others who are as lost as I was.  

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your ministry. I still listen to your messages daily and have been deeply blessed by them. They have brought me back to the love of Jesus, who saved my life.

Free of Drug Addiction, Back in University

I’d fallen into many vices as a young boy even though I grew up in the church. My father wasn’t always around and my mother, though she tried her best, couldn’t keep me from the things I indulged in as a young boy.  

I started smoking at 13 and by the time I was 20, I had pretty much done every hard drug that could be obtained in my city—marijuana, cocaine, crack, codeine, and other pills. I was associated with a very well-known cult in my country and was rising through the ranks quickly. I was also rusticated from 2 universities which brought so much shame and sadness to my family.  

One day, I was lazily surfing through channels on television when I came across Pastor Prince’s program. The things he talked about and the way he presented the gospel of grace brought so much peace to me. I thought, Wow, I have to have more of this.  

So I set a reminder for whenever Pastor Prince’s sermons would air next, and no matter how high I was, I always tuned in to listen to the amazing grace of God. This prompted me to dive into the Bible myself to find out more about God’ grace. 

Watching Pastor Prince’s programs on satellite television in Nigeria has changed my life tremendously. Through his ministry, I was able to learn about the gracious love of God in a way I’d never known before as I grew up believing I had to do good in order to get good from God, and when I failed, I had to confess all my sins.  

I had tried to stop taking drugs in the past, but the longest I had ever gone was 10 days, and I found myself back in my addiction and even worse off than before. I heard praise reports of other addicts declaring that they are the righteousness of God in Christ even in the midst of their addictions as they trusted the Lord for deliverance, and I began to declare that too.  

It has been over 3 years since Jesus set me free from my addiction! Every desire and craving I had has completely disappeared. I no longer associate myself with the cult and am back in university studying to become the first lawyer in my extended family. Everyone is proud of me now. 

I really want to thank the Lord for Pastor Prince’s ministry. Through the grace of God presented to me by his ministry, I have been set free from the things that once held me bound. Hallelujah!

Freed from 16-Year Smoking Addiction

I started smoking as a teenager and was bound by the habit for about 16 years. I began attending New Creation Church in 2012 and was amazed to hear so many testimonies of people being delivered from various addictions just by hearing and believing the Word of God’s love and grace. 

I’d tried to give up the habit a few times in the past but it barely lasted 3 days before I’d return to smoking again. So I gave up on trying to give up. I felt condemned, guilty, and didn’t like the fact I was bound by something so harmful. I prayed and when I heard testimonies from others, I started to ask the Lord, “Why not me, Lord?”  

One day, I got a hold of Pastor Prince’s teachings on wisdom and realized I had a lack of it in my life. I then started asking the Lord for wisdom to free me from the habit. One day I smoked the last packet I had and told the Lord I wanted it to be the last packet I smoked.  

I experienced some withdrawal struggles during the next few weeks and thoughts of giving up loomed in my mind. But I kept using His wisdom to counter those thoughts. Eventually I did not have any urge to smoke anymore. Praise Jesus! 

It has been 5 years since then. I sometimes share my testimony with other believers who want to be liberated of their addictions and tell them that if Jesus can do it for me, He can do it for them too.  

Thank You, Lord Jesus. And thank you, Pastor Prince, for sharing the wonderful message of God’s grace. The goodness of God surely leads to repentance.

Freed from Alcohol and Smoking Addiction

I have been a Christian since my college years. One day I happened to see Pastor Prince’s book Grace Revolution in a store. I’d heard of his name before and decided to buy the book. As soon as I began reading, my eyes opened and a fire burned in me like never before! I didn’t know how hungry I was to hear the true gospel of grace. 

The desire for alcohol that I had consumed regularly since my high school years went away. I have also stopped smoking and have abstained from pre-marital sex for a year now—something I’ve always wanted to be able to do. My caffeine consumption has also drastically decreased. 

I know it was the Holy Spirit that led me to be at the right place at the right time to buy the book that has changed my life! I am so on fire for the Word of God now and so glad God chose Pastor Prince to deliver the truth that is so desperately needed. 

I have read so many of Pastor Prince’s books and have shared his teachings with many others. I am now able to read the Bible with a deeper understanding. I’m excited about my new walk with Jesus!

Free from Pot, Alcohol, and Pornography Addictions

I have been a Christian my entire life, but my lifestyle had not been a worthy representation for Christ even though the Lord had blessed me.  

I was a CEO in a non-profit organization and had tried my best to be a good influence for my employees and those I served. But I lived a secret life dominated by pot smoking, alcohol, and pornography. I knew I was leading a double life. Needless to say, despite my best intentions, I lost my job, my reputation was tarnished, and all that I had built up was torn down. 

During that time, I kept asking God to forgive me and change my heart. I knew I couldn’t become the person I wanted to be without the help of the Holy Spirit. But no matter how much I tried, I couldn’t change my behavior. Then, I found your program on television and as I listened to your teaching on God’s grace, my spirit started to stir within me. It took many months of listening before anything changed in my life. 

Pastor Prince, your message of grace was the turning point for me. When I heard God loves me and cares for me even as I struggled with my sins, my heart was moved, and I knew it was time to change. You said to remind myself, even in my sin, that I am the righteousness of God in Christ. I did that and I also started partaking of the holy Communion daily. I also received a vision that inspired me to change the way I was living.  

With the help of the Holy Spirit, I lost the desire to smoke pot, drink, and watch pornography! Today I am delivered from my shameful addictions and have joined a local church where I can enjoy the company of fellow believers. I earnestly seek God’s will for me and ask for Him to complete the plan He has started in me. 

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your teachings because they changed my life so that I could become the person God wants me to be. For the rest of my life, I wish to serve God and be an instrument of His grace and love. God bless you for reminding me how much God loves me.

Marriage life transformed, delivered from vices and getting stronger through the Communion

I was raised in church, but never really understood what it meant to be a Christian. When I left my hometown to further my studies, I started to smoke, drink and gamble. I was even addicted to pornography.

Eventually, I got married and had a baby boy. In order to support my family, I had to work overseas. When I was abroad, things grew worse, I started living in adultery and my wife also got involved with another man. That crushed me. I was so hurt and felt that my life had no more meaning. Nonetheless, for the sake of my son, I still applied for my family to join me in Canada.

Months after we reunited, my love for my wife rekindled. However, the pain and hurt was still present. I realised that I needed God’s intervention and we started going to church where we learnt to forgive each other.

One day, I came across Pastor Prince’s sermons on YouTube. His preaching was so profound yet straight to the point. I had never heard anyone share such amazing revelations and anointed words that imparted grace to the listeners. I have learnt a lot from Pastor Prince, including being conscious that we have been made the righteousness of God in Christ. I would listen to his sermons all day long.

Since then, I have been delivered from my drunkenness, stubbornness, and sexual immorality. My physical body has also gotten stronger after partaking of the holy Communion daily, discerning the Lord’s body. My wife was even healed of scoliosis without any surgery!  

We have also been practising the Lord’s presence and love together. Now, our marriage is completely restored.

Today, whenever I am asked to share the word of God, I make sure that the message only points to Jesus, the reason for our living, and nothing else.

All glory and praise to the Lord! Thank you, Pastor Prince and New Creation Church!

Healed from neck pain

2 May 2021 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

I have been a Christian since I was 19 years old, but only started listening to Pastor Prince from 2019. His messages about our Lord Jesus Christ and His finished work have delivered me from depression, anxiety and panic attacks, and years of addiction to pornography.

Recently, I had a pain on the left side of my neck. Every time I moved it, the pain would go all the way from my neck to my head. I also could not fully turn my head without feeling extreme pain. For about a month now, this pain would persist, often from noon until evening.

I was puzzled, and tried different ways to relieve the pain but to no avail. It robbed me of my joy as I could not operate normally.

On Sunday, 2 May, Pastor Prince called out my neck condition and proceeded to pray over it. I jumped off my seat in tears and confessed that I am healed. I then moved my head around as instructed and realised that the pain was gone!

I am now completely healed. Thank you, Jesus, for using Pastor Prince to preach the gospel of grace so powerfully!

No More Anger Outburst, Marriage Improved

I have been a pastor since 1986. I started to listen to Pastor Prince about five years ago.

At first, I had problems receiving his messages since it went against some things I had been taught. After a while, I began to see the reality of grace. Four months later, I realised that the anger I had carried for years was gone. As a pastor, I had been bothered with occasional anger outbursts but the worse part was the days of condemnation that followed. I am now free from that and have been for over four years.

I had truly thought I would never be free of that anger. I can now see I was freed because I had been hearing about my Father’s love and His forgiveness of all my sins. Like Pastor Prince, I used to confess every wrong thought and attitude. This was a torment. On top of that, I had an addiction since the age of 15 and had hidden it from my wife. Through the years, I had times of freedom, but I would fall back into the addiction again. I felt even more condemned each time since I was a pastor. It is now great to be free and not to feel that I am living a lie—struggling with sin while pastoring.

I have fallen in love with my Saviour like never before, and I know Jesus loves me! Grace has changed me and my marriage. 2020 is our 50th wedding anniversary, and I praise God that my love and appreciation for my wife have grown to a level I never expected. We have heaven on earth in our home.

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for introducing us to grace. I pray all Central and South Americans would experience the grace revolution!

Free From Pornography Addiction And Depression

When I was in high school, I struggled with pornography addiction. I was also depressed and had no direction in life. I had a religious background but didn’t know about the grace of God. My relationship with God was based on my works and self-righteousness. I knew about the Ten Commandments and kept trying to live right before God but always failed.

When I turned twenty-five, I started watching Pastor Prince’s sermons online. Hearing the true gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ changed my life forever! As I believed right, I experienced heart transformation. When I depended on Christ’s love for me, I no longer desired to watch pornography daily.

I thought it was impossible to break free from the bondage of this sinful pattern. Pornography, depression, and fear had been such a bondage for me, but knowing Jesus Christ took all my sins and judgement at the cross broke this sinful habit! When I believed that I am the righteousness of God in Christ, my heart changed to loving God and others. Today, I’ve been free from pornography addiction and depression medicine for over two years!

I went from waking up to watch porn—and would watch it two to three times a day—to waking up wanting to study God’s Word daily. I now delight in reading the Bible and find it hard to put it down even after reading it for hours on end! All glory goes to our Lord Jesus Christ and His divine work for us at the cross. His love has changed me—from living in sin and depression to waking up with joy and peace in my soul and fully enjoying every day.

After living 13 years in sinful bondage, I am now free. I’m living in newness of life and am full of joy in the Holy Spirit. With man it’s impossible, but with God all things are possible!

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your beautiful and amazing ministry. I hope this testimony helps others who need the good news of our Lord Jesus Christ!

Delivered from multiple addictions & depression

I had been a believer for over forty years but I was miserable. I was addicted to wine and taking medication for insomnia. I was also depressed and hated my life.

I lost my godmother, my father, and my best friend of over 25 years. I also lost my job, house, and other family members.

I have a 25-year-old son who ended up in jail for doing and selling drugs. He has been stealing from others, including me, since he was 12. I also have a 42-year-old son who is an alcoholic and a marijuana user. He also sold drugs for a living.

But I still trusted the Lord. I brought my children up in church but we were under wrong believing and lived under the law. I knew life had to be more than this and that God had a calling for me, but I couldn’t find a way out of the mess. Eventually, I depended on medicine, marijuana, and wine to help me sleep and go about my daily life.

One day, I saw Pastor Prince on television talking about how as believers, we can declare that we are the righteousness of God in Christ even when we’re still in our addictions and trusting Him to break free. He also taught about the holy Communion. My spirit came alive—I’d never heard God’s Word preached like that before.

I began to declare that I am the righteousness of God in Christ and partook of the holy Communion daily. Today I have been free of alcohol, medications, and drugs for over a year! I no longer have any desire for drugs, alcohol, or pills.

Pastor Prince, ever since I started watching your television broadcast, my life has changed. I’ve also been teaching my two sons about the gospel of grace. They have been born again. My younger son in jail will be coming home any day now.

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for preaching the gospel of grace. Because I believe right, I now live right! I continue to pray for you and your family. Because of the message you preach, lives are being changed. Hallelujah!

Encountered Gospel Of Grace In Prison, Life Transformed

I had been in prison for six years when I came across Pastor Joseph Prince. A fellow inmate who was about to be released gave me a television. I was channel surfing when I saw Pastor Prince teaching on the gospel of grace.

When I first heard him, I thought, “If only this could be true.” However, as I continued to watch and listen, the scales fell from my eyes and I knew that this good news was true. Immediately, I began to see transformation in my life.

I was released five years early from my maximum sentence. My daughter, whom I had not seen in many years, was waiting for me. Oh, what joy I felt holding her in my arms! And getting to know my granddaughter has been amazing as well. I’ve been sharing the gospel of grace at every opportunity I get.

Few things in this life approximate a tomb like a 23-hour lockdown prison cell, so I feel like I have been resurrected from the dead! Thank You, Pastor Prince, and thank you, Jesus, for giving me back my life and family.

Set Free from Multiple Addictions After Confessing Righteousness

I grew up in church but was burnt out in my early teens. I dissociated myself from religion and anything to do with God. My life spiralled into darkness. I became addicted to drugs, alcohol, tobacco and pornography.

Eight years ago, I was led to Pastor Prince’s sermons. At first, I was turned off by the message he was preaching because I was so used to hearing about what I needed to do to climb the “spiritual ladder” of Christianity. His messages really went against the grain of what I knew and believed about the gospel. It seemed so easy and effortless.

But I kept on hearing his messages and started to confess my righteousness in Christ. At that time, I was still smoking cigarettes and would confess, “I am the righteousness of God in Christ,” even while I was smoking. At first, I smoked even more, but eventually the desire to smoke kept diminishing until it was completely gone!

I did the same thing with my addictions to pornography, drinking, and other destructive habits. At the beginning, it was so awkward and uncomfortable. But I didn’t care because I felt like I was at the end of my rope. Praise God, the fruit of right believing is astounding! Thank you, Pastor Prince, for preaching this radical gospel of grace. Thank You, Jesus!

Freed From Addictions Through Grace

My parents divorced when I was young, and I grew up with severe trust issues. I first got saved at a Christian conference years ago. Over the years, my intimacy with God started to fade and I found myself tempted by many things.

I became addicted to porn, alcohol, and drugs. On top of that, I also had an eating disorder. I would try very hard to be right with God, but found myself falling into legalism and constant self-condemnation.

I believed I had committed the unpardonable sin, that God had cut me off and there was no way back. I became sick from the stress of it, suffered panic attacks and was in agony.

Then, the Lord led me to Pastor Prince’s sermons and I learnt what grace truly is. I also learnt that the heart of our heavenly Father is full of love and mercy. Pastor Prince’s messages ministered to my soul.

I am no longer addicted to porn, alcohol, and drugs; and I do not have an eating disorder! The desires for these things left when I learnt about the superabounding grace of God. I know that I am forgiven, cleansed, and restored by the precious blood of Jesus.

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your teachings on the grace and finished work of Jesus.

Deliverance From Heavy Addictions, Now Saved And Blessed

I grew up without my mother, so my grandmother had to fill in the role as my mother. When she passed away, my life went downhill. Though I was already a believer, I stopped going to church. My family also had little time for me, and I lived a rebellious lifestyle. With little guidance, I got into bad company. At the age of 16, I was drinking almost every day, and smoking up to one and a half packets of cigarettes daily. I even got hooked on drugs for a period of time.

At the age of 21, I attempted suicide due to stress from a toxic relationship and many other things. This was the third time I tried to kill myself since I was 16. Needless to say, it was another unsuccessful attempt. I was admitted to the hospital and placed in the Institute of Mental Health (IMH) for a while.

The entire ordeal was a blur to me, but during that dark season, I remember crying in my room, and hearing a voice saying, “I Am”.

I did not know what that meant until a few months later, after I came back to New Creation Church and started attending services regularly. Through Pastor Prince’s teaching, I realised that God never left me, especially in my time of need. I believe that the voice I heard during my dark season was God telling me, “I am your provision, I am your salvation”, and most importantly, “I am here”.

Today, I am 23 years old and I am completely set free from the chains that had a hold of me. In fact, it was almost impossible for me to quit smoking, but after I prayed and asked God for deliverance on my birthday, my Abba Father answered my prayer. And when God gives, He gives in abundance.

My relationship with my family has been restored, and I am also blessed with a boyfriend who loves and cares for me. He even attends church with me and is now saved!

Praise the Lord for not giving up on me, and turning the darkest period of my life into a testimony. I am so grateful for God’s grace, and I look forward to hearing Pastor Prince’s sermons every week!

No More Post-Natal Blues

In 2009, I suffered from an ectopic pregnancy (a case where the embryo attaches itself outside the uterus). As a result, my left fallopian tube ruptured, causing massive internal bleeding, and I required an emergency surgery to save my life.

Then, my gynaecologist placed me on long term contraceptive pills to help regulate my menstrual cycles, as well as to prevent further unplanned pregnancies.

Come 2017, my husband and I were both in our mid-30s, and we wanted very much to grow our family. At that point, I had not received Jesus, but I knew that when my child came, he or she had to be a blessing from God, whoever He was. Thank God, we conceived within just three months of trying. Even my gynaecologist was pleasantly surprised to see us so soon!

My baby boy was born healthy and strong after 42 weeks of gestation through a smooth, and reasonably short labour.

However, being a first-time mother, I was not fully prepared for caring for a newborn as well as the demands of breastfeeding. It was my desire as a mother fully provide for my baby. However, the struggles of surviving on interrupted sleep and worrying if the baby was having enough to drink took a toll on my body.

Slowly, I slipped into post-natal blues. Eventually, I ended up with mastitis and abscess, a form of bacterial infection inside my breast. I had to go for a procedure and was put on antibiotics to prevent a recurrence.

At that point, I was so depressed and exhausted that I broke down at the clinic. Then, one day when I was at home with the baby, I saw Pastor Prince’s book Live The Let-Go Life which was given to me by a dear friend of mine who attends New Creation Church. She had visited me at the hospital when I delivered and given me the book.

 

So, I started reading the book while the baby napped. After some time, it became so clear to me what God was doing for me in my life even before I knew Him, and what the Lord Jesus had done for us at the cross.

 

One week after Resurrection Sunday in 2018, I started attending New Creation Church. My sister, who is also a member of the church, started attending services with me and we got to spend time together every Sunday.

In November 2018, both of us were baptised together!

Now, I have a healthy baby boy who is turning 16 months old and I am believing God for another baby girl!

I am no longer suffering from post-natal blues and all my friends have been telling me how positive I have become. I have also learnt to enjoy being a mummy ever since I understood the need to let go of all our worries to the Lord.

Thank You, Lord Jesus, for loving me even before I knew You. I am greatly blessed, highly favoured and deeply loved. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for writing the book!

Planted In A Kingdom Family, Growing Stronger In The Lord

For years, my hubby had resisted joining a care group as we were both busy with work, but we eventually decided to join a care group that was near our home after I was prompted through a sermon by Pastor Prince. 

Prior to the first care group session, my husband injured himself after a failed attempt to pull out a cyst from his armpit, and he was not able to lift up his arm for a few days. 

That Friday, we visited the care group and met a mother who asked us to pray for her child. So my husband stretched out his hand and prayed for her. 

We experienced a strong presence of the Lord that evening and amazingly, my husband’s arm was healed the very next day. He was able to lift up his arm, and the cyst in his armpit dropped off miraculously by itself! 

Since then, my life has never been the same. From this care group, I got to know a group of kingdom friends with whom we often have Bible study and fellowship. I realised that the more I sought the Lord and let go of my daughter’s studies, the better she performed. 

In the past, I used to feel that the message shared in church was the same every Sunday. But after joining the care group, the Holy Spirit opened my eyes to see new things in the messages. My husband, who used to have no interest in reading the Bible, is now studying Hebrew. 

There was also once when I began to worry about our finances as the money in my Central Provident Fund was depleting, and we would have to fork out more cash every month to pay for our housing loan.   

However, my husband told me to rest in Jesus, and my care group members also encouraged me to look to Jesus for His supply. 

Subsequently, my husband got a new job. By industry standards, the highest increment one could get is 20 per cent. But because of God’s favour, my husband got an increment of 35 per cent. On top of that, the company even gave him a five-figure signing bonus. That eased my worry about our housing loan. 

I am so thankful for the wonderful kingdom family God has blessed me with and I am blessed to be under an awesome care group leader who always points us back to Jesus. I have grown so much in one year versus attending church on our own for more than a decade. To God be the glory!

No Longer Indulging In Sinful Behaviour After Believing Right

I was raised in a traditional church. Growing up in the United States, I was not allowed to go dancing, watch movies or even put on earrings. Even after accepting Jesus, I still thought that I had to earn His love with good and religious behaviour. 

I became very conscious of every failure, and worried that if I slipped up too much, I would go straight to hell. I attended a Bible college, and tried to use my own self efforts to be good enough to please the Lord. 

But as I became more conscious of my mistakes than the love of Jesus, I found myself falling into sinful behaviour, and couldn’t figure out why. 

It was not until when I became an adult that I became aware of what Jesus has done for me. I began to listen to the wonderful, anointed messages and teachings by Pastor Prince. 

The Lord began to speak to me about making Jesus the centre of my life. I sought Him in my daily life and learned to walk in what He has already given me. 

I came to know that my constant thoughts of sin involved my own self-righteousness and struggle to behave right. I stopped trying and proclaimed this truth aloud, “I am now the righteousness of God, by faith in Jesus Christ.” 

The more I stood in God’s presence as a way of life and learnt to thank Him and worship Him, the more the sinful behaviour fell off. Very soon, I quit drinking and my reliance on self-medication. 

It is the Lord Jesus Christ who has indeed saved me from damnation! Now, my walk on earth is blessed, and the joy I have is deep and real because it is eternal.

No Longer Bound To Gambling

I picked up gambling when I was 20 years old and won the very first time I laid my hands on it. Later, the habit caught hold of me, and it turned into a 28-year-long indulgence. I would gamble every Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday—week after week, month after month, and year after year. 

It occupied almost all my time and energy as I would try to work out the “hot numbers” for the next bet.  

On 10 September 2017, I joined my friend at New Creation Church and heard Pastor Prince preach. I felt so joyful listening to the gospel of grace and realising that all my sins—past, present and future—are forgiven. 

I learnt that I am the righteousness of God in Christ, and I do not want to sin. This newfound blessing showed me I should be looking at my true riches in heaven and not at the world for provision, and definitely not from gambling. Slowly, I was nudged into taking small steps to defeat my indulgence in gambling.  

On 20 September 2017, I decided to not gamble. By God's grace, I have never looked back since. 

It's been a year and a month, and I have not gambled. It feels so wonderful and blessed to be released from this bondage! 

Thank You, Lord. All glory to God.

Wedding Provided For And Set Free From Smoking

I picked up smoking when I started my first job at 14 years of age. My smoking habit got really bad, and I was smoking three packets of cigarettes a day. 

As I was working long hours, smoking seemed to be a time of rest for me. Later, I went through a series of retrenchments and change of jobs. Finally, I decided to be self-employed. 

Subsequently, I met my wife. I did not have enough money to get married then as I was in debt and did not have a regular income. Eventually, I went back to full-time employment to save up for our marriage. 

We were not believers at that time. Once, we attended a church and felt judged after being told that the church elders would assess us to see if we were fit for baptism. 

One day, a friend invited us to New Creation Church at Marina Bay Sands Ballrooms. Throughout the worship and sermon, tears kept flowing down my face. I was touched. 

Both my wife and I decided that this is the church for us. We got baptised in 2014, and in 2016, after dating for six years, we got married. By God’s grace, we got great deals for our banquet and wedding packages. With the little that we had, God made it possible. 

Then, just before Christmas in 2017, my wife asked me if I was willing to quit smoking for her. I told her that I would try again—this time with God. I asked God to give me the strength to stop smoking and take away my memory of smoking. 

I also kept declaring that I am the righteousness of God in Christ. I have been free from smoking for almost a year now. Praise God. 

I would like to thank Pastor Prince for preaching the true gospel which has changed my life, and I am leaning more and more on God every day, knowing that I can't do anything without Him.

Delivered From Depression And Shame, Now Married And Blessed

I was raised as a Christian and had accepted Christ in 1985. The many Christian churches I went to always taught a mixture of law and grace, and I was a lukewarm Christian. My dad was a womaniser and I grew up seeing how my mum suffered as a result. This and the lack of a father’s love made me believe wrongly and accept a man whom I thought was giving me the right kind of love. 

I lived in with him for about six years in a relationship full of betrayal, deceit and lies. We finally ended our relationship with so much pain, condemnation and shame in me. I thought that God was mad at me for all the sins that I had committed since I was a kid, and thought that they were all recorded in the Book of Life. When judgement comes, I thought I wouldn’t be fit for heaven. 

Soon after my break-up, I came to Singapore to work. At that time, I was full of negative emotions—pain, depression, anger, shame, fear, condemnation and anxieties. I also had thoughts of suicide, and prayed that God would lead me to a church. I started attending New Creation Church in December 2004. 

At first, I wondered: “Why is this pastor always talking about God’s goodness? What about God’s wrath and judgement?” But I felt prompted to just listen, and I kept attending the services and immersing myself in Pastor Prince’s messages—in the morning, on my way to and from work, and when I got home. 

I finally realised how great the gospel of grace is and how much Pastor Prince was unveiling the beauty of our Lord Jesus Christ. It made me want to always attend church services and best of all, it made me realise how much Jesus loves me. I started serving in church in 2009. God also answered my prayer, according to my heart’s desire, for a believing husband.

In the later part of 2010, I left for the United States with my husband and brought along my entire collection of Pastor Prince’s message CDs. I watch his television broadcast every day and I’m so thankful that it’s available here. I have also been sharing about God’s grace at work and giving out Pastor Prince’s books and CDs to the people around me. 

Looking back, my life has been transformed since 2004. I was a miserable person with self-pity and self-condemnation but now I know God’s love. Looking to Jesus gives me peace and the life He wants me to have. Though there are many challenges, our wonderful Jesus gives me strength each day.

Thank you so very much, Pastor Prince, for spreading the gospel of grace!

No Longer An Alcoholic

I grew up in a Christian family that focused on discipline and proper upbringing. Growing up, an occasional glass of wine was never frowned upon. But soon, I discovered that addiction was a progressive disease. I went from sipping wine to craving for anything that had the label “alcohol”.  In the end, I became powerlessly dependent on alcohol for more than a decade.

At that time, I would attribute all my talents—particularly in public speaking to alcohol instead of God. Then the downward spiral began—I failed my university exams, got warded for an acute ulcer because of my drinking and was fired from my job.

I believed that I could stop drinking based on my own strength and would go without alcohol for weeks and months. But just when I thought I had succeeded, I would slide back into the doldrums of alcoholism and become consumed by guilt, shame, rejection and disappointment.

Once, my son fell sick and I had to travel to another part of Ghana to be with my wife and take care of him. But I got so drunk there that my wife had to care for both my son and me. The more I went to church, the more I felt that I had let God and my family down. I thought God was mad at me and didn’t want anything to do with me.

In 2015, I was introduced to Pastor Prince through his book The Power Of Right Believing and God started to heal me of guilt and condemnation. When I read about how Jesus went through Samaria because of the woman at the well, I personalised it and told myself that Jesus would make detours just to meet my needs. And when I learnt from Pastor Prince that Jesus bypassed time and chemical processes to turn water into wine, I was assured that God would bypass the usual protocols to bring out the best in me.

Then, I went on to read Pastor Prince’s book Unmerited Favor and learnt to see myself as God sees me. I discovered that living a Christ-centred life was not about what I have but who I have. I decided to rely on God’s unmerited, unearned and undeserved favour, and let Him run my life. Through Pastor Prince’s books, I have learnt to let go and let God.

I am now completely set free from my 13-year bondage to alcohol. I know that Christ was referring to my addiction when He said, “It is finished!” on the cross. I am also no longer living under guilt and condemnation.

Forgiven And Accepted In The Beloved

I grew up struggling with insecurity even though I had been serving in church from young. I felt that my relationship with God was “shakeable”.

When I was in my teens, I had a few relationships and thought that in order for me to gain love and respect from the guys I dated, I had to give myself to them. Although I felt the Lord telling me not to give my body away, I was too weak to say no. Every time I performed the act, I felt guilty and was fearful of becoming pregnant.

This cycle continued in my subsequent relationships, and I was rejected by one of them because I was no longer a virgin. I felt lost and condemned, and lost hope of ever meeting a man who would love and respect me.

In 2011, I started to attend New Creation Church and learnt about the gospel of grace. Like the woman in the Bible who committed adultery, I too, received the gift of no condemnation. And I agree with what Pastor Prince preached in the sermon titled Experience Victory Over Sexual Immorality—sex outside of marriage is not fulfilling at all.

In church, I met a guy who loves and accepts me for who I am. Our relationship is filled with security because Christ is at the centre of it. Now, I am blessed, happily married and pregnant with a baby girl. Praise God for His restoration in my life.

I can now confess what I did in the past because I know I am forgiven, and I am the righteousness of God in Christ. Jesus loves me and accepts me for who I am. It’s not what I have done, but it’s all about His faithfulness to me.

20-Year Smoking Addiction Gone!

I have been a Christian since 2008. When I just got born again, I was so in love with Jesus. However, gradually I felt that I was not doing enough for God. I also had a detestable addiction to smoking for 20 years.

Back then, I was serving in the church choir and every time before and after my choir practice, I would hide outside the church to smoke. I felt like a hypocrite. I tried to quit smoking through nicotine patches, medication and my “iron will”. But the more I tried to quit, the more I had the desire to smoke! Gradually, going to church became a duty, and I would skip church in exchange for sleep.

I knew this wasn’t how I felt when I first got born again, so I prayed that God would lead me to fall in love with Him again. Then, a friend invited me to New Creation Church. During worship, I felt God’s presence and love so strongly. And my prayer was answered when I heard Pastor Prince speak—I fell in love with Jesus all over again.

Even though I was already a Christian who had read the Bible, I did not fully understand it until Pastor Prince unveiled God’s truth and love from the Scriptures.

Going to church became a joy and His Word became a necessity for me like food. Week after week, I grew in the revelation of God’s great love for me. And as encouraged by Pastor Prince in his messages, I would confess that I am the righteousness of God in Christ even when I was smoking.

At first, I felt really stupid and hypocritical but I continued confessing and asked God to take away all my desire to smoke. Over time, I grew to hate the taste and smell of cigarettes. I would smoke halfway and stop because it tasted funny. God took away all my desire to smoke!

It has been over five years now since I stopped smoking. Praise God for truly all glory belongs to Him!

Found Life’s Meaning In Christ

I used to attend a church in Perth, Australia but never truly felt that I belonged there. Growing up, I always had a void in my life due to the bullying I experienced, and the absence of my parents as I was in boarding school, and also their expectations of me to excel in my studies.

For a long time I was lost with no place to go, no direction in life and would occasionally watch pornography. Eventually and reluctantly, I completed my degree and began my working life in Singapore.

Then, my girlfriend of three years cheated on me and I slipped into depression. At that time, I also hated every bit of my job, even though most of my colleagues were nice people. It’s just that my career did not spark any passion in me.

In the midst of it all, I tried to take solace in meaningless relationships which only made the sense of void increase. Occasionally, I would think of suicide but a voice in my head kept holding me back. That voice eventually prompted me to go back to church. Hence, I began a search online for a church that would be suitable for me. New Creation Church fit the bill as it was a big church and I could keep a low profile.

I had my doubts initially due to my agnostic beliefs, but continued attending church mainly for the positive energy I felt.

Thankfully, going to church made me feel better again. God even led me to the love of my life whom I met online and was somehow also attending New Creation Church. He also gave me a new career which I was truly happy and passionate about.

I realised then that God has a plan for me. Grace is real. My faith in Him increased and I hungered to know Him more. I prayed to Him for a visible miracle.

One particular Sunday, I attended church with a sunburn on my right arm and was in extreme discomfort. During the service, Pastor Prince prayed for the congregation. After the prayer, I looked down at my arm and to my surprise, it had completely healed!

It was then that I finally had full faith in Jesus and His finished work, and believed that we are completely forgiven and healed spiritually, mentally and physically through His sacrifice on the cross.

I have also stopped watching pornography. Thank You, Jesus, and thank you, New Creation Church, for giving purpose and meaning in life back to me.

Life Blessed After Believing Right

My husband and I are assistant pastors at a church in India. But I struggled with depression, guilt, condemnation and hopelessness for many years. I was also a victim of wrong doctrines, and believed in the influence of demons and the bondage of curses in believers. My wrong beliefs added to my stress, despair and hopelessness so much so that I started to doubt Jesus’ finished work on the cross.

During my worst trials, I became increasingly despondent and frustrated. I even thought of running away from Jesus and the ministry that He had entrusted us with.  

Then, my daughter insisted that I should listen to Pastor Prince’s messages, but I was hesitant as we had been advised to stay away from the message of God’s grace.

Nonetheless, as I listened to Pastor Prince’s sermons, I began to be set free from all my bondages and strongholds. I have been immensely blessed to know that I am the beloved child of God. Life has become so beautiful and I am now filled with a brand new hope.

Recently, I also took the seven-day challenge on living the let-go life. Initially, I did not know how it would help me but praise the Lord, 10 days passed before I realised it, and I discovered that all my anxieties about my children and ministry were all gone!  

Glory to Jesus! Another miracle that happened was the opening of my own beautiful clinic which I thought could never come to pass as there were many obstacles along the way. But during the journey, the Lord encouraged me through a message by Pastor Prince on Caleb boldly asking Joshua for a mountain because he had a different spirit.

I also thank God for healing my relationship with my husband, children and in-laws. My journey with Jesus is now one of love, forgiveness, celebration and restoration.

Life Transformed And Blessed With Baby After Believing Right

In 2006, I contracted Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (a chronic autoimmune disease that attacks healthy tissues). I had to take medication to suppress the symptoms. Over the next 10 years, I had a few outbreaks, and each time, I had to consume more and more medicine before my condition improved and the dosage could be reduced. This process was very painful.

I came from a traditional church in China where the teaching was full of condemnation and law. Subsequently, I developed severe depression. Thinking that I was demonpossessed, the church leadership tried to cast demons out of me. This was very hurtful and I spiralled into deeper condemnation, guilt and depression to the point that I could not fully control my behaviour.

I attempted suicide three times and became hostile to my family. I was bitter and couldn’t forgive myself and others. I was suffering inside and my health deteriorated further.

At this time, I came to know about Pastor Prince’s teachings, and started attending a care group. Since embracing God’s grace, I began to understand that His love is unconditional and that He still loves me in spite of my shortcomings. I don’t have to “clean” myself before I go to the Lord to receive His love.

Every day, I would partake of the Holy Communion and declare that there would be a glorious restoration in my body and emotions, and that every area in my life would be well.

In May 2016, my medication was reduced to a minimum. My husband and I started to try for a baby but to no avail. I was worried that it was because of my heavy reliance on medication previously. I kept meditating on God’s Word even though I was upset. I also remembered that the pastor of my current church would quote Pastor Prince’s words saying that “right believing leads to right living”.

So I began to change my mindset and look unto the Lord instead. Though I was undeserving, I knew that God is still willing to bless me. Praise Jesus, I finally became pregnant! On 6 April 2017, I gave birth to a healthy baby.

Now, I no longer indulge in self-pity and am able to forgive those who had hurt me in the past. I really believe there will be a grace revolution in the whole of China and that God’s glory will manifest in the churches here.

Freed From Pornography Addiction

I attended New Creation Church for the first time on Sunday, 3 January 2016. Back then, I was from another faith but did not have much understanding on it.

That Sunday, Pastor Prince preached about the love of God and how much He loves me despite me being unworthy. From then, I was drawn by the Word of God and I started attending New Creation Church regularly with my family.

I also started reading up books by Pastor Prince and was hungry for God’s Word. Miraculously, my mind was so occupied with Jesus and His Word that I was no longer drawn to pornography. God freed my mind from the addiction within a short span of time when I just kept my focus on Him!

Hallelujah! Now, I am set free from the addiction and is a better person. To God be the glory.

Thank you, Pastor Prince for preaching the love of God! Amen!

No Longer Living a Life of Defeat

I am 46 years old and had suffered from major depression throughout my entire life. It intensified in my late 30s.

I was raised as a Christian and throughout my life, my mother has been very concerned about me. As a child, she would bring me to prayer partners or pastors for prayers. I remember experiencing the touch of God on numerous occasions after leaving these meetings.

However, I was very stubborn. I did not know how to move forward and would end up backsliding and drifting away from God. I became an easy target for the enemy and bought into so many of his lies and accusations. This almost destroyed my life. I attempted suicide three times, overdosing on my medications and had to be admitted into the intensive care unit.

I blamed God numerous times for my situation and would even curse Him. I felt that if He loved me so much then why would He allow Satan to make me feel so bad?

Every time I tried to get back on the saddle in my walk with God, I would feel His touch, but soon afterwards, I would do a spiritual face-plant. The enemy would accuse me, and it would take root in my mind. I would spin out of control and fall into another depression. I never felt I could live up to a standard of being worthy of God.

About two years ago, I began listening to Pastor Joseph Prince. The gospel of grace has changed my entire world. The work that God is doing through his ministry is just awesome. It has given me success in my walk with God.

Now, I know that I am the righteousness of God in Christ. Knowing that my standing with God is wrapped up in Jesus, I have learnt to keep my feelings separate from my identity. I have learnt not to trust in my feelings alone, but to always go back to being conscious of my right standing in Christ.

No Longer Running a Drug Cartel but On Fire for Jesus

I used to help oversee a drug cartel in Sydney, Australia for the triads. Through the Lord’s intervention, I got saved while in prison. A very well–meaning pastor then taught me to work for my salvation. He also warned me about grace–filled churches and false doctrines. By the time I got out of prison, I was ready to work for God and give my life to Him as a slave.

Eventually, living under the law made me feel like a failure as I could never meet God’s standards. In the past, I could win victories for my boss through large drug deals or taking new territory. But in this “new gang”, I could not even win against myself. I finally gave up, left church and went back to selling drugs.

Two years later in 2007, a friend from church gave me some “new teachings” he had stumbled upon. It was a whole series of Pastor Prince’s teachings on grace. But I did not listen to the sermons immediately until I was hurt really badly by my girlfriend at that time and my drug business went bust. I no longer lived like a drug lord, but like a junkie.

I cried and cried and ended up listening to Pastor Prince’s sermon CDs. That gave me the courage to go back to the Lord and I started attending a church in Sydney.

Today, I am fully restored. I got a university degree, married a wonderful wife, and we are both serving in church. I have also overcome my addictions and my mind has been renewed.

I want to thank Pastor Prince from the bottom of my heart. Please continue to shine the amazing light of God’s grace.

Addiction To Pornography Supernaturally Gone

When I was young, I stumbled upon some pornography materials while watching a video, and this started my addiction to pornography. 

Every time when my parents or guardians were away, I would watch pornography secretly. There was a time when my friends and I would go to someone’s house to watch it together. 

Even as I grew older, this habit still remained with me. From primary school all the way till I started working, I would satisfy my sexual urge with pornography. 

In October 2017, I was invited to visit New Creation Church, and I have been attending since. I would also regularly watch Pastor Prince’s sermon videos. 

Around two months later, I realised that I had not watched any pornography and that all my addiction was gone. 

Thank you, Pastor Prince.

Deliverance from Smoking Addiction

I am almost 31 years old now, and I started smoking when I was 17.

For almost 14 years, I had longed to be free from nicotine. I've tried to quit but failed numerous times.

I felt very guilty because I knew that smoking is bad but a big part of me didn't want to quit. I enjoyed the feeling it brought me and moreover, I was afraid of the withdrawal symptoms and the side effects, especially weight gain.

Over the years, I kept listening to testimonies of people delivered from this habit and wondered when it would happen to me.

After some time of looking on wistfully, I just gave it all to God and told Him I put myself, my health and my addiction in His hands.

Shortly after, I lost the urge to smoke. I felt like I had been a slave to smoking and hated being dictated by my addiction. I disliked having to duck out of dinners with friends to have a cigarette, and come back stinking. I even began hating the smell of smoke on my fingers and in my breath.

I was glad for that change, but I was still afraid of losing my mental crutch.

Finally, God and I agreed on a date from which I would no longer be a smoker.

From that day on, I really became a non-smoker. I had completely stopped thinking like one, and this to me was the biggest hurdle I had overcome. I didn't even crave for a cigarette when I was upset or stressed out.

Above all, I didn't get fatter. There is no way any of this could have happened without God and I am so thankful to Him.

Thank you Jesus!

Set Free from Drug Addiction

I was brought up in a legalistic Christian family. My Dad was very strict but he loved me very much. Over the years, I grew up believing that our God was an angry God.

When I was in Primary Two, my parents divorced. My heart was broken. Soon, I became rebellious and left school at the age of 13.

My life was in a mess. I made a living by selling drugs and working in night spots. I was addicted to drugs and was caught several times for drug abuse. I needed help.

Then, a friend brought me to New Creation Church and it changed my life forever. After attending church for a few weeks, I woke up one morning with a clarity of mind. I finally realised that the “cursed” life which I thought I had, was already taken away from me.  I had found grace.

With this fresh revelation, I prayed to God to help me overcome my addiction.

Since then, whenever I felt like taking drugs, I would just declare that I am the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus.  I was also told myself that I shouldn't rely on my own willpower but tell God, “I cannot but You can.”

One fine day, the drug which I was addicted to ran out of stock. I was desperate and worried about the effects of withdrawal on my body.

My sister, who also attends New Creation Church, prayed for me and partook of the Holy Communion with me. Amazingly, after two weeks, I did not go through any withdrawal symptoms and I was totally set free from drug addiction!

Now, I am happily married with two kids and blessed with a growing business.

Thank you, Pastor Prince for preaching the Word of no condemnation. That was exactly what I needed to hear during my addiction.

I am so grateful and humbled by the fact that God did not spare His own Son for my sake. I can't imagine where I would be without my Saviour, Lord Jesus Christ. Thank Abba Father!

Answered Prayers for Parents’ Salvation and Deliverance from Addiction to Pornography

Since 2012, my number one prayer request was to get my parents saved. But it had always been a struggle for me to ask them if they would join me in church.

In January 2013, both of my parents, who lived overseas, came to visit me and I had this urge to bring them to our Chinese Ministry service just before their flight home. I felt so awkward bringing this up so I kept praying in tongues. I also prayed that God would give me His courage and wisdom, and to soften their hearts to know Jesus.

Finally, I went up to my dad, who has a heart condition, and asked if he would be interested to go to the Chinese Ministry service with me. I told him that perhaps, this God whom he didn’t know would heal him.

Surprisingly, without any hesitation, both my dad and mum agreed to join me for the service! That evening, both of them accepted Christ. It was really the happiest day of my life and I am just so grateful to know that His timing is perfect! Hallelujah!

In addition to my parents’ salvation, God had also amazingly taken away my years of addiction to pornography.

Since I was a teenager, I had been hooked to pornography. I was so addicted that I had to watch it every single day and occasionally many times a day!

Each time, I would tell myself I wouldn’t do it again. I even tried many ways to stop but failed. In the end, I knew I couldn’t do it and gave up. I decided to surrender myself to Him and kept confessing that I am the righteousness of God in Christ even when I was watching pornography.

Praise the Lord! Now, the chain of bondage has broken and I have been completely set free! I have no more desire of surfing pornography websites anymore! I believe only Jesus can remove and wash away all the lustful desires from within! God is really awesome and faithful! His goodness and mercy are really indescribable.

Set Free from Tobacco Addiction

I am in my early 40s and live in Rwanda. I have attended many churches but have never heard the truth that could set me free.

I suffered a lot during my 23 years of smoking and lost many things in the process. I not only lost money, but I also lost my personality. My handwriting also suffered because my arm and fingers would start to shake each time I took a pen to write.

This had a very negative impact on my performance at university because the professors would ignore my examination papers. As I studied ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs, my handwriting affected my performance. It grieved my heart so much to know that I was graded poorly because no professor could read my examination copy. I knew I would fail.

I even swore to God that I will not smoke again, but I ended up smoking the very next day! My constant failures to quit smoking became an open door for condemnation.

In late 2011, I chanced upon Pastor Joseph Prince’s television broadcast and that was the beginning of my deliverance. I cannot stop giving thanks to God and to Pastor Prince who introduced me to the gospel of grace.

After I received the revelation on the power of the Holy Communion, I started to partake of the Holy Communion at home. Within a week, I lost the desire to smoke without realising when and how! That is definitely God!

After God removed my desire to smoke, I even forgot the location of the shops where I used to buy my cigarettes and matches! I cannot even feel its traces! By grace, I even passed by one of the shops the other day, and instead of buying cigarettes, I bought bread for Holy Communion instead. Praise God!

Freed from Condemnation!

I am a property agent, and I lost a deal which I should have rightfully closed if I had been more careful. The commission I lost was not a big amount, but I felt very guilty and could not forgive myself for my mistakes. Every day, I would blame myself for my mistakes!

I knew that I desperately needed God's help in this area of my life. One Saturday night, I cried out to the Lord and asked Him to help me. The next day, you preached from the book of Romans and shared how there is no more condemnation in Christ Jesus. I identified with every word you spoke!

By grace, I was once again reminded that I only need to look to Jesus to find forgiveness and joy in my heart. You also shared about Simon Peter and his mistakes, and reminded us of how Jesus’ tender mercy and love for Peter restored him. That brought much release to my spirit and I could feel life restored in my soul! I was reminded of Christ’s work on the cross and His love for us!

Pastor Prince, thank you so much for being an obedient mouthpiece of God. To God be the glory!

Set Free from Depression

Before I came to New Creation Church, I always believed that I had to do good to please God. I made it a point to confess my sins constantly and this made me very self-conscious and sin-conscious.

I was also very insecure as a teenager and would be affected by the comments and jokes that my friends made about me. I was depressed about my appearance, and even pestered my father to let me undergo cosmetic surgery.

Soon, my school work suffered and I was rejected by all the local universities. I felt extremely lousy about myself, was suicidal and started developing an eating disorder.

By God's grace, I managed to enter one of the local universities. But the depression continued and I failed my subjects to the point that I was afraid of getting expelled. During a visit to the psychiatrist, she merely scolded me and gave me some medication. I did not return after that first visit.

However, things began to turn around after I started attending New Creation Church. Every week, the sermons reminded me that I am God’s beloved and righteousness in Christ.

Miraculously, my eating disorder disappeared and I was less troubled about my weight without realising it. I've also learnt so much about the grace of God, faith, and hope from this church. Every day, I claim God's blessings over my studies and my future career.

Today, I am happy to announce that I have graduated with honours, and I have been offered a wonderful position in an industry that I am passionate about! Thank you Pastor Prince for preaching the gospel and for revealing the beauty and loveliness of Jesus to us! All praise and glory to Jesus!

Set Free from Guilt and Condemnation

I had been battling with this sin for more than five years. Only really close friends know about this terrible secret. Even my parents are unaware of it. I had been through two abortions before, one when I was 18, and another when I was 21.

The emotional wound did not heal for quite some time. I would be filled with negative feelings and deep regrets whenever I was reminded of the abortions. Sometimes, I would cry in the toilet or in my room, running through the events in my head and wondering how I could get out of this rut. I would confess my sins repeatedly, thinking that it would eventually redeem me from my past.

Over the period of five years, I was involved in two relationships and each time, I would confess my past to my boyfriends, telling them how lousy I was but at the same time, hoping that they would still like and accept me.

Then, a friend of mine introduced me to New Creation Church. I remember the first service I went to was a midweek service. During praise and worship, I felt something touch my soul but I could not put my finger on it. During the sermon, I felt my first loving touch from God. I also felt God pulling this sin out of my heart and wiping it away forever. After the service, there was an unexplainable peace in my heart.

Since then, my life has been transformed effortlessly through our Lord, Jesus Christ. Whenever I am reminded of the abortions, I no longer have those lousy feelings. I did not even have to fight those feelings. They have simply become an issue of the past. As Pastor Prince unveiled the beauty of Jesus week after week, I learnt so much about God’s goodness in my life. Jesus is my freedom and my forgiveness. He is the only one I need.

I used to read a lot of depressing tabloids and online forums. I was also a fan of self-help books filled with steps on how to improve myself and achieve my goals. However, the motivational and positive feelings never lasted long. I found it difficult to maintain the positive vibes on my own. But now, I just keep myself in His grace and perfect love. It is now effortless for me to be positive, with a spring in my step. Now, I fill my days with reading devotionals, listening to praise and worship songs, and sermon CDs. I have learnt that it is only with Jesus and through Jesus that I can expect everlasting goodness.

My life is now a life full of gratitude and rejoicing. Thank you Pastor Prince!

Blessed by Destined to Reign and Set Free from Condemnation

I just want to let you know how much I am blessed by your ministry and your book Destined to Reign.

Before I came across your book, I was praying and asking God to show me a way out of the lifestyle I was living. I was living a lifestyle of sin and the more I did not want to sin, the more I sinned. It came to a point where I just wanted to give up on Christianity.

In church, I was taught that there was only one way to be righteous, and that is to work harder on it, pray more, fast more, watch the things I say and confess all my sins constantly. But I could never come to the point where I saw myself righteous. I felt that there was always something more that I was missing. I did not know anything about grace, I did not know if there was a way out of this kind of living and when I asked God, I did not even expect God to answer me.

Then, I came across your book and it changed my whole life! Sin no longer had dominion over me. I never knew that Jesus loves and accepts me unconditionally all the time. I never knew this kind of freedom existed! Now, I have this peace in my heart that will not go away! I love it! Thank you, Pastor Prince! I am so thankful to God for your ministry!

Set Free from Condemnation and Received Emotional Healing from Past Hurts

I am a lady from Hong Kong. A year ago, my friend passed me Pastor Prince's book, Destined To Reign. I have never heard of the gospel of grace before. I did not fully understand the book at that time but I was attracted to it. So, I started listening to New Creation Church’s sermons. One day, I listened to a sermon preached by Pastor Lim Lian Neo about forgiveness. She told a story about a mother who intended to choke her newborn baby because she could not forgive herself for committing adultery even though God and her husband had already forgiven her. This sermon spoke to me.

Four days later, the Holy Spirit showed me that I had a deep anger inside my heart. I had not forgiven myself for all my wrongdoings in my past, especially regarding a few wrong relationship choices. I asked Jesus how I could forgive myself. He showed me the cross, and to just look to Him. That night, I dreamt of my childhood. In my younger days, I never experienced a loving relationship with my father. I was also always upsetting my mother for mistakes like breaking the dishes while washing them. I received no form of approval from my parents. Then, I woke up from my dream. I knew Jesus was trying to tell me why I went into those wrong relationships. Jesus comforted me and said to me, "Forgive yourself and your parents."

From that moment onwards, my childhood hurts were healed. I experienced an instant aggressive peace inside me. My heart is now as light as a feather and as bright as a sunny day. Thank you Jesus, for healing my hurt feelings from the past. Thank you Pastor Prince and all the pastors from New Creation Church for your boldness to preach the truth.

Set Free from Smoking Addiction

I started smoking at the age of 14 due to peer pressure. Although my school had banned smoking, my classmates and I would still smoke in the school yard. Smoking soon became a habit.

When I was 24, my wife was pregnant so she quit smoking. I tried to quit, but it was hard. I promised to stop smoking as soon as our son was born. However, less than a week after his birth, I started smoking again. I was just unable to quit.

For the next 10 years, I had been trying to quit smoking. But whenever I tried, I could only last for about three days. By then, I would be really grumpy. To improve my mood, I would resume smoking.

During one of the Sunday services in 2009, Pastor Lian shared a testimony from a brother who had been smoking for many years. He wanted to quit, but was not able do so by his self-efforts. The brother said he kept confessing that Jesus had conquered the smoking habit when He died on the cross. I could totally relate to every word, except the ending. The brother was free from his smoking addiction. I was not.

I told God that I am not putting my family through a hard time of bearing with my temper while I tried to quit smoking. If God can heal the sick without them having to do anything to be healed, He can also set me free from this addiction. I decided there and then that I would stop trying to quit smoking, but to see my smoking habit conquered on the cross, and just let God take care of it.

Whenever I partook of the Holy Communion, I would confess that God has fixed my smoking habit, just like He had fixed the problems of others. I did not try to cut down at all. I just confessed that Jesus had taken my problems on the cross and that it was a done deal.

Then, it happened. On 24 October 2009, I woke up in the morning, and the craving for cigarettes was gone. In the afternoon, I tried one cigarette, as I expected to become grumpy as usual if I didn’t. However, the cigarette tasted bad, and I was still in a good mood. I never smoked again since that day.

I did not use any medication, techniques or classes to stop smoking. What I could not achieve in over 10 years, God fixed it overnight. God took away my smoking habit of more than 20 years. Thanks to God, I did not go through any withdrawal symptoms, and my family did not have to go through a hard time.

Jesus is the best cure for smoking. The only “side effect” is that you will be blessed and have an even better relationship with Him.

Praying in Tongues Changed My Life

In 1995, I became addicted to sleeping pills after my doctor prescribed it to me without my knowledge. Around that time, I was retrenched and could not find a permanent job. Without a proper income, I was unable to provide well for my family and it stressed me out.

Then, I suffered from such bad sinusitis that mucus was trapped behind my cheekbone and I couldn't clear it myself. I had three operations but it didn’t get better, and my left cheek became constantly infected instead. For years, I had to take expensive antibiotics to clear the infection and visit the hospital regularly to “flush out” the mucus.

Due to the antibiotics I was taking, I started suffering from gastritis. My stress level increased and I simply couldn't sleep naturally. It was a vicious cycle. A psychiatrist said I had depression and stress, and gave me more pills.

Every day, I was taking up to 30 tablets for depression, stress, gastric pain, infection, sleep... I think my whole system was upside down with all the medication. At that point, with three sleeping pills, I could only sleep at most two hours, after which I would wake up and not be able to go back to sleep. I ended up popping six pills every night. Being broke, I went into a construction business hoping that the situation would improve. It didn’t. There were sales but I had problems collecting payments. At times, I really wished I would die in my sleep.

I started having panic attacks. When it happened, I couldn't leave the house, couldn’t drive, couldn’t do anything, and my wife at times would have to stay home to look after me. I was in such a bad condition that I just didn’t know how to live my life. I even gained weight although I was not eating well. I ballooned from 46kg to 56kg and my waist went from 28 to 34 inches.

Then, in April 2003, I felt the Lord telling me to just speak in tongues. I didn’t feel any major change or anything initially. But when I prayed in tongues, I felt peace. When I had a panic attack, instead of taking a pill, I started to pray in tongues and listen to Pastor Prince's message tapes. The resulting peace I felt would take the panic away.

After praying in tongues regularly for two months, I was healed of my sinus and gastric problems. I was jobless then and praying a lot, as long as I could remember to pray. Around that time, Pastor Prince preached on spiritual warfare and said that in a major battle, it’s good to pray in tongues, and I continued to pray and pray and pray.

In May, I felt the Lord telling me to start a business doing what I loved, which was to repair computers. There was already a deluge of computer repair businesses out there, but I obeyed the prompting nonetheless. Amazingly, the finances started coming in and I’m now able to provide for my family. I also felt God instruct me to take only two meals a day and enjoy whatever food I wanted for those meals. I did and my weight started dropping! In September, my waist was back to 28 inches and I weighed 46kg.

Around the same time, the Lord told me not to buy any more sleeping pills and said that He would enable me to sleep. In October, when I had no more pills, I told the Lord, “I depend on You now.”

That night, a Sunday, I couldn’t sleep and started praying in tongues. The hours passed — 1am, 2am, 3am, and I still couldn’t sleep. I ended up praying in tongues the whole night. On Monday night, I prayed in tongues till 2am and slept for an hour, an hour of good quality sleep! I continued praying in tongues. On Tuesday, I slept blissfully for two hours; on Wednesday, three hours; Thursday, four hours; and Friday, five hours — all without any pills.

God delivered me in five days from an addiction of nine years! No one else could have done it. Now, my wife says that she has found a new husband and my three children say they have found a new papa. Glory to the Lord!

Set Free from Addiction and Living a Life for Jesus

I was born in a Christian family and grew up thinking that God is an angry God. Since young, I was afraid of failing because I didn’t want to anger God. So I started confessing every wrong deed I had done.

Finally, I told myself that I would do what I wanted to do first, and later come back to God. Slowly I was led astray. My life became very bitter. I indulged in all kinds of sin — smoking, drinking and so many other stuff. Day by day, I knew my life was sinking and I was a total failure. I didn’t have a proper job and I was like a posh beggar. Even when I was hungry and had money in my pocket, I would choose cigarettes over food.

I felt very condemned by my actions and decided to give my life to the devil, thinking that he would give me whatever I wish for in this world for free.

Soon, I came under an attack. My mind started to go haywire. One day, I got overdosed on drugs and my limbs started twisting by themselves and my heart started beating very slowly. I thought I was going to die that day. But somehow, Jesus saved me.

A year later, I came to the end of myself. I wanted to come back to Jesus but I did not know how. In June 2012, I came across Pastor Prince’s sermon and that was the first time I learnt that I am the RIGHTEOUSNESS OF GOD in CHRIST JESUS.

Since then, I took hold of that truth as my armour against my bad habits. Whenever, I smoked, I started confessing that I am righteous in Christ and cigarettes have no power over me. Within two weeks, all my bad habits left me.

Today, I reign over them. It has been almost two years now and the work of God in my life continues to amaze everyone around me. God has also been opening doors for me to preach the good news in Sri Lanka. I thank and praise my Lord Jesus Christ for delivering me and saving me. Pastor Prince, I also thank God for you because you have unveiled the beauty and the loveliness of Jesus Christ unto men like me.

Freed from a Life of Constant Demand

Even though I was a believer, I lived a miserable life. I attended a church in Johor, Malaysia, which focused on how to get assistance from the Holy Spirit, how God liked our tithes, how to pray effective prayers, how perfect the Commandments were, and the mission that God had placed on our lives.

Though they were preaching on God’s love, it was like some secondary article in a newspaper — short and superficial. Under that preaching, I was busy finding my so-called “mission” and was expecting to hear the voice of God so that I could enter a business that will prosper me.

I was anxious because I didn't hear anything from God. I spoke in tongues, but I considered it fake. I just moved my tongue because other church members were doing so.

I prayed every day but still nothing happened. I felt something was not right. I was tired, but unable to speak to anyone because even my cousin who led me to church, was also busy finding his own business, or his so-called “mission” in life.

In my zeal to find a business to invest in, I ended up being cheated by my business partner and lost a couple of thousand ringgit. Not only that, my relationship with my cousin was also affected because I felt disgrace, not being able to fulfil God's plan.

I also felt sick whenever my fellow church member shared how the Holy Spirit performed miracles in their lives after conducting a “marathon prayer”. I did not feel loved at all and was very tired. I wondered why I must do so many things to gain something from God when He had promised to give everything to us freely.

Everything changed since my company arranged for me to stay in Singapore for a couple of months. While here, I felt a need to attend church.

One day after lunch, I took a walk along Beach Road. At that time, my heart was empty. To fill the emptiness, I thought of my future, but started thinking negative again. Suddenly, I saw a huge truck which had the logo of New Creation Church printed on it.

I simply surfed the church website, noted the address and visited the church one Sunday in September 2013. I’ve never thought that I would find relief and God’s love until I came here.

That day, Pastor Prince was preaching on our position in God and he mentioned that though we may sin, we are still walking in the light. What’s more, I happened to be sitting at a seat where a strong beam of light shone!

Since then, I started to experience how God loves me and has given me His unmerited and undeserved favour.

Today, I have no more tension in my life. I have quit my smoking habit which had had me obsessed for almost five years. Now, I am able to enjoy my study and work without any doubt that our Lord Jesus had given me the best things and protected me from failures.

No matter how slow I am, God is still with me. God has also never failed to allow me to attend New Creation Church although I had moved back to Johor.

He is blessing me in many ways such that I could afford to get a bed in a hostel here in Singapore after church service where I could relax and have quality sleep before going to work the next day.

Thank you Pastor Prince, Pastor Lian, every New Creation Church pastor and volunteers who are serving and showing God’s love. I really feel like I’m in the house of God.

Set Free from Fear and Condemnation

I had attended church for quite some time, but never really understood what grace was.

Through Pastor Prince’s sermons, Jesus was revealed to me. Today, I know that grace is Jesus Himself. In the past, I felt like I was in a prison and I could never break free from it. My life was a failure and I would constantly condemn myself. I could never escape from all the self–condemning thoughts and I was full of insecurities. Basically, I felt that I did not deserve anything good in life. I felt a lack of love because I grew up without my parent’s care.

As a result, my confidence and self–esteem were greatly affected. I was a nervous and insecure individual, and felt unwanted.

But after knowing the tender mercies and the great love of our God, and how He had freely forgiven me, my faith springs forth. I know only the power of the blood of Jesus can wash me of all my sins.

Now that I know I am loved by an Almighty God and He is well–pleased with me, all the fears and worries I had in the past just faded away. Now I am as bold as a lion and totally free from condemnation. I also know that I can face every challenge ahead of me with peace because Jesus has become my everything. Thank You Jesus for setting me free. Hallelujah!

Set Free from Depression

I received Christ at the age of 13 and attended church regularly for about a year till the weekly pressure from church leaders to bring and convert newcomers got to me. I constantly felt like I was not good enough.

After I stopped attending church, my life went into a downward spiral. I used relationships to compensate for my low self–esteem, and ended up divorced with a young child. Then, a man I met some time later left me because his mother objected to our relationship.

As much as I knew that I had to be strong for my child, I felt extremely dejected. I drank heavily, and when that did not work, I started living promiscuously. I tried to put on a happy front but my heart was dying and I hated myself. I was later diagnosed with severe depression and the therapist put me on medication because he was worried that I might hurt myself.

One day, feeling suicidal, I cried out to God to take me and my child away if my life was going to continue like this. Interestingly, I got to know a new friend shortly after that, who invited me to New Creation Church. Previously, every time I thought of attending church again, I would feel that I was too dirty and sinful for church. However this time round, something in my heart told me to go.

I will never ever forget how I felt as I sat in my seat, listening to Pastor Prince preach the gospel of grace. It was as if every single sentence was meant for me. I stopped taking my anti–depressants that very night. It’s been a few months and I am in awe of Jesus’ love for me every single day.

I no longer worry about finding a life partner who can accept my past. The sad songs in my MP3 player have been replaced with praise and worship songs and I want to dance with joy every day. Life is absolutely wonderful when you have the love of Jesus Christ.

Freed from Guilt and Secure in Christ

I grew up struggling with insecurity even though I served in church from young. I felt that my relationship with God was “shakeable”.

When I was in my teens, I had a few relationships and thought that in order for me to gain love and respect from the guys I dated, I had to give myself away. Although I felt the Lord telling me not to give my body to a man, I was too weak to say no. Every time I performed the act, I did not feel any satisfaction. Instead, I felt guilty and was fearful of becoming pregnant.

This cycle continued in my next few relationships, and I was rejected by one of them because of my past. I felt lost and condemned, and lost hope of ever meeting a man who would love and respect me.

In 2011, I started to attend New Creation Church and learnt about the gospel of grace. Like the woman in the Bible who committed adultery, I too, received the gift of no condemnation. And I agree with what Pastor Prince preached in the sermon titled Experience Victory Over Sexual Immorality — sex outside of marriage is not fulfilling at all.

In church, I met a guy who loves and accepts me for who I am and he is now my fiancé. Our relationship is filled with security because Christ is at the centre of it.

I can now confess what I did in the past because I know I am forgiven and I am the righteousness of God in Christ. I believe that God has renewed my body. Jesus loves me and accepts me for who I am. It’s not what I have done but it’s all about His faithfulness to me.

Eyes Opened To Jesus’ Finished Work

I am a 51–year–old African American from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, in the United States.

I became a believer at the age of 19. And like Pastor Prince, I was very shy because of my learning disability. But when I came to know Jesus and what He had done for me at the cross, I was set free and I rejoiced like never before. His love and acceptance for me were things that I had never experienced until then.

So, I gave my life to God. I gave everything I could to please Him, yet I was always afraid of losing my salvation if I didn’t do everything right. I had to make sure I prayed enough, studied enough, confessed my sins enough and of course, kept the Sabbath and all the do’s and don’ts.

At the time, I didn’t understand what being legalistic meant. But somehow, I felt bound because no matter how much I read or studied, I could never live up to the standard of God and I felt condemned. I was ashamed and guilty for never being able to please God. So I left church and went back into the world with guilt.

One day, I read the Bible and it said that I was saved by faith. (ref: Ephesians 2:8) Then, I stumbled upon Pastor Prince’s website and I must say that I was truly blessed by your grace message.

All this while, I was in bondage thinking that I had to work to enter heaven. But Jesus opened my eyes to His finished work on the cross through your messages.

Now, I know that Jesus has paid the price for my sins and I thank Him very much.

Nicotine Addiction Gone!

I was addicted to nicotine and had tried to quit the addiction so many times until I had lost count. But each time, I would only find myself reaching out for more and more. I often felt guilty for succumbing to temptation and for hiding this from my family.

I subsequently received Jesus as my Saviour and began attending services regularly at New Creation Church for about four months. During service one Sunday, Pastor Prince shared about overcoming addictions like smoking. I was very excited when I heard that and was anxiously waiting for Pastor Prince to tell us the method.

Then he said, “Every time before you light up a cigarette, just declare: ’Jesus is my righteousness.’”

Honestly, when I heard that, my first response was “Is that all? Really?”

I mean, I had tried so many means and not to mention the numerous times to quit but it was just so difficult. Was it really that easy?

One day, I decided to just do it. I declared out loud: “Jesus is my righteousness.” I was shocked. Within the next few days, I found myself throwing away the cigarette after a few puffs. Within a week, all my cravings were gone and I stopped smoking completely!

I have learnt that it doesn’t matter if you are a new believer. As long as you have received Jesus as your Saviour and believe that Jesus is your righteousness through faith, your blessings will surely come. When you stop trying to achieve through your own efforts and rest in God, what you are believing God for will come to pass.

Thank you so much Pastor Prince for all your teachings! Thank you for letting me know that Daddy God loves me and I have been forgiven of all my sins as Jesus had paid for them at the cross. More importantly, as a new believer, I look forward to my journey with Daddy God for the rest of my life.

No Void, Just Grace

I was born and raised in Ghana in West Africa. I entered adulthood very young — at the age of 12, due to poverty. I grew up with much hatred for God and Jesus Christ. I’d only ever heard about God's grace but had never experienced it.

My friends used to call me the “devil” because I didn’t want to hear anything about God or Christ. I didn’t usually watch Christian channels due to my hatred towards God. But I happened to watch Pastor Prince one Sunday morning in late 2006 on Daystar TV and he was talking about God’s grace.

After listening to Pastor Prince, I came to realise that there is no such thing as satisfaction in life other than the grace we have in God through Christ. I knew there was something missing in my life but didn’t know it was grace. I prayed the sinner’s prayer during Pastor Prince’s altar call and that was when Christ changed me and filled the empty space in my life. No wonder the Lord asks us to come to Him just the way we are and He will clean us from the inside out!

I have been a distant member of New Creation Church (NCC) for almost six years now, and try not to miss any of Pastor Prince’s broadcasts on Daystar TV.

Brethren, you may not know this, but thousands of people like me are being blessed by NCC and Pastor Prince’s preaching. To God be all the glory!

Favour & Wisdom

Mind became sharper after memorising Psalm 92

For the past couple of months, I had been feeling lightheaded, and my mind was in a fog. I attributed it to tiredness or fatigue, but it didn’t seem to lift, no matter what I did. I tried doing my Korean language course but made very slow progress.

On Sunday, 21 January 2024, I attended the service at Marina Bay Sands Ballrooms. That day, Pastor Prince mentioned something powerful. He asked the congregation to memorise Psalm 92, verses 12 to 15.

So, I wrote down the verses and pictured myself as the flourishing palm tree and tall cedar tree mentioned in the verses. I also visualised myself being fruitful, with green leaves sprouting all around.

After memorising and meditating on the verses, I felt the fog lift and my mind become sharper. Learning Korean has never been easier. Praise the Lord!

Prayer request fulfilled: Found a job in an MNC after two layoffs

I work in the IT industry. In June 2022, I was made redundant because the company wasn't doing well. By God's grace, I landed another job a month later. But before the year ended, I was let go again as my role was outsourced. What a double whammy to be laid off twice in such a short time!

So, my 2022 didn't end so well. But I saw the opportunity to put my job expectations down as one of my three prayer requests for 2023, which is to get a position where I can be a blessing. Instead of letting grudges and condemnation consume me, I turned to the Lord for His direction.

God led me to take my job search restfully and showed me that it was a good opportunity for me to explore other areas like cybersecurity. My church friends also stood in faith with me and prayed for my job situation. 

In March 2023, I was approached by a headhunter for a position in a multinational corporation (MNC). I went for the interview and prayed for wisdom, favour, and good success. I followed my dad's advice on looking up the company. I also felt the Lord tell me to enjoy myself at the interview.

Throughout the interview, I felt calm and answered the questions honestly and truthfully. At the end of it, I was shortlisted for the second interview. At the second interview, I felt a peace that surpassed all understanding. Later, I was informed that the company would be offering me a contract role. I believe this is a huge open door for me. My past few jobs were in small and midsize enterprises, and I'd been praying for bigger opportunities. Furthermore, this role also gives me time to learn how to fit into a big corporation.

Eventually, I was given an offer which was 30 per cent higher than what I expected and 65 per cent more than my last drawn salary! I was also given 18 days of annual leave and a mobile allowance. Besides that, I would also be covered by company insurance. I barely contained myself when I heard the news! I had NEVER gotten such an offer before. And do you know how kairos the call was? It was during my birthday month, right before all the birthday celebrations! It was my best birthday gift ever! 

No words can express my gratitude and happiness on receiving this blessing. Thank You, Jesus!

Received favour in job search in The Kairos Year Of Right Time, Right Place

Recently, the company that I was working at got acquired, and many employees, including me, were let go. I had to exit Singapore with my family if I did not find another job in time. I reached out to many people and had many interviews, but I kept getting rejected. I started wondering what was wrong and why it was not happening.

At the same time, I had to change my accommodations as the landlord didn't agree to extend the contract. We prayed together as a family and believed that God would not leave nor forsake us in this situation.

After three months of active searching and trying hard in interviews, I ran out of leads. I was ready to take up any job, but nothing worked out for me. It was all dry, and I couldn't see any light ahead. Fear started building along with scary thoughts. I had sleepless nights, and my energy was low during the days.

During this period, I kept listening to sermons by Pastor Prince. I realised I had not relied on God's grace and favour. So, I changed my prayer from "God, please provide" to "God has already provided", and all I needed to do was to claim His promises. I started proclaiming God’s truth over facts and that God is our provider.

One day, I woke up and found a job posting online. There was no mutual friend or connection, and I didn't know the person who posted the job as he was based in the United States. I prayed and emailed him that I was interested in this job. The same day the person replied that he wanted to speak to me, and we spoke the next day.

After the conversation, he told me he liked me and had me speak with the global head, who also said the same thing. In the end, they decided to hire me. It was a casual talk and not like an interview, and everything happened very smoothly within one week.

I couldn't believe what was happening. It was indeed a kairos moment for me and a miracle in itself; as we know, hiring doesn't happen so fast anywhere, in any industry.

I started work a few months ago in a more prominent role than I previously had. Glory to God for His unmerited, undeserved favour.

Job Restoration Through Right Believing

I along with many of my colleagues, had been laid off due to a large-scale restructuring of the company that affected many employees globally.

Everyone, including our managers, was in shock because this came without warning. However, amidst the shock and panic, I strongly felt the Lord's peace within me. A sense of calm and joy also enveloped me during that time.

Later that day, I broke the news to my wife, and she was very understanding. Like me, she also felt God’s peace when I told her that I had been laid off. Together, we encouraged one another and held on to what Pastor Lawrence Lim had shared before: that God is always good, regardless of our circumstances, and that having a good opinion of God is important.

I started applying for jobs. I submitted applications for over 14 jobs but sensed that the working culture of those places were not suitable for me. However, a close brother-in-Christ approached me and told me about a job opening that he thought might be a good fit. So, I decided to apply. Throughout the application process, I felt the Lord’s favour over me, making the process feel light and easy. In the end, I was offered the job with a 55.53 per cent salary increment!  I knew that this was the Lord was telling me that it was because of His unmerited favour that I got this job offer.

I have since started working in my new job where I have supportive colleagues. Work has also been restful and full of God’s favour.

Furthermore, I began this new job three months after being laid off. This meant that the four-month severance pay from my previous company became a two-month bonus for me.

Thank You, Jesus, for always being good! The Lord always has a good plan even when we cannot see it. All glory goes to the Lord!

Received New Job After Receiving Encouragement From Godly Community

Early in the year, I found myself unemployed because the company was not doing well and had to close down. Losing my job was deeply painful because it was not just a position, but a dream job that offered a good salary.  

I started to apply for various jobs but was met with no reply. I felt lost and uncertain about what the future held for me.

However, I trusted in Daddy God’s love for me and believed that He would give me His best. My care group also pointed me to God’s grace and reminded me that His plans are always greater than mine. As such, I decided to join the Go Israel tour organised by our church a month later.

During the tour, my care group leader and tour leader encouraged the tour group, emphasising that because of Daddy God’s love for us, we can boldly ask of Him, confident that He wants to give us His best.

This greatly encouraged me and I began to pray for a job with better salary and benefits than my last. As I continued to pray during my time in Israel, I felt the urge to check my email inbox and found an invitation for a job interview sent three days ago. The interview was for a job position that I wanted.

I quickly arranged for the interview and shared the good news with my care group leader. We gave thanks for the open door and prayed for a good outcome. I also prayed that God will enlarge my territory and for me to be a testimony of His great work.

After coming back from Israel, I went for two rounds of interview and shortly after, I received the job offer with a salary 65 per cent higher than my previous one. Additionally, the position and benefits of this new job were far better than what I imagined. In my current position, I get to do what I’m passionate about and put my talents to good use. Only God can do it!!

I am writing this testimony with an overwhelming gratitude in my heart. I thank Daddy God for His faithfulness and provision, as well as for orchestrating circumstances that led me to my new job. Truly, His plans for me are far greater than I can ever imagine.  

I would also like to thank my care group leader and tour leader for encouraging me during the trip. Additionally, I feel blessed to be rooted in a care group that always encourages me and points me to the grace and goodness of God.

All glory to God!

Experienced acceleration in school and work while resting

Every year, Pastor Prince would share the theme of the year for the church, and in 2022, it was rest and acceleration. Usually, we will not know exactly how the theme would personally apply to us until we go through the year and realise how it has always been so on-point, and this is my testimony.

In early 2022, I was in London for a school exchange programme. Everything was going as planned until I caught Covid one week before my return to Singapore. It was also the week I had to submit the final assessment for one of my modules, and I could not do so as I became very ill.

It was one of the scariest moments in my life as I was all alone. But my family and friends stood in faith with me and sent me food supplies. I grew stronger by the day and felt restful on the inside. On day seven, I tested negative and could fly home as planned.

Not only so, but by the grace of God, I got an A- for the module for which I did not complete the assessment. I rested, and God accelerated.

Then in late 2022, three weeks into my new school semester, I had to go for surgery to remove my appendix. The Lord had protected me from the get-go as I had been involved in two full days of activities, but my inflamed appendix did not burst. It was only on the third day when the pain got so severe that I decided to visit the emergency unit.

Choosing the surgery was a tough decision as I had to rest for two to three months after that. But my school and work schedules had already been planned out till the end of the year.

On top of that, I was worried that I might not be fit enough to take on specific school modules and that my education awards would be clawed back as a result. But I knew that the Lord would not fail me.

Glory to God, the school's dean proposed a plan where I did not need to stay back for another semester, and he even ensured that my education awards would not be clawed back. Not only so, I was even able to showcase my final project for grading. 

I believe that the Lord had made me "rest" mentally and physically through 2022, and He accelerated my grades and work, giving me good bosses who kept me employed throughout my ordeals.

Glory to God, and thank you, Pastor Prince, for letting God use you to remind us of His love.

Received favour in job search in The Year Of Rest And Acceleration

I started listening to Pastor Prince's messages 10 years ago and learned so much about God's goodness, kindness, grace, and love.

Late last year, I was still out of a job even though I had been searching for some time and had grown tired of it. In addition, my visa was going to expire, and I would be deported if I did not get a job.

While travelling on holiday, I felt God teaching me to ask for one thing, which is to know Jesus better. I was also excited when I learnt that this year's theme is rest and acceleration, and I listened to the message several times.

I also felt the Lord telling me that He has heard me and instructing me to sing praises to Him instead of complaining.

Soon, I was offered a job where I would be on probation for six months. Due to the regulations in Germany, my salary would not qualify me for a visa. I told my boss about the issue, and on the same day, the company decided to give me a full-time role and doubled my salary! It has been almost a year since I joined the company, and the Lord has greatly blessed me.

All glory to God, and thank you, Pastor Prince, for your teachings!

Unmerited Favour in Her Studies and Work

About 10 years ago, I had a mid–career change of jobs. I was apprehensive and prayed for wisdom to make the right decision. Finally, after much prayer, I received a word from the Lord regarding 1 Thessalonians 5:24, “He who calls you is faithful, who also will do it”. Believing that the Lord is faithful, I sent out my application and it was accepted against all odds as most of the other applicants were all former heads of departments. I was grateful to the Lord for this unmerited favour.

After a year on the job, I pursued a Master’s Degree programme as I felt rather inadequate with my existing skills. It was a big step as I had graduated 20 years ago and much had changed. I had a tough time and prayed fervently for supernatural favour as I struggled to juggle my family, job and studies. Fortunately, I am blessed with a supportive spouse who prayed and helped me through this time. I prayed for grace to master the IT skills that I needed to retrieve materials such as research papers and journals.

I also prayed that I would pass and not get thrown out in the middle of the programme. To my amazement, I passed with high distinctions and was the top student. I knew that this had nothing to do with my own efforts. It was the work of our mighty God, who never fails when we throw ourselves at His feet and depend totally on Him.

In spite of these successes, I faced many challenges at my workplace which made me question my decision to switch jobs. I cried out to the Lord and read Psalm 91:15, “He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him and honour him.” At that time, I found it hard to believe the promise in that verse as I was very distressed.

Soon after, a friend told me that she was resigning from her job and asked if I wanted to be transferred there as she was doing the same job as myself. It was a refreshing change and I thanked God for it.

In my new workplace, God blessed me tremendously as I continued to rely on Him daily. The job was emotionally draining and I often felt like giving up because I saw little success in what I was doing. But the Lord lifted me up with an unexpected blessing when I was given the Excellence Service Award in the department. And recently, I could barely contain my gratitude to my heavenly Father when I received the PS21 Service Excellence Award and PS21 Distinguished Service Award. I know that none of this was based on my self–efforts, but it was the result of God’s unmerited favour and grace that Pastor Prince has been preaching about!

Son Excelling in His Worst Subject

For quite some time, I had stopped reading the book, Unmerited Favor. But recently, I picked up the book again. I continued from where I left off and it happened to be where Pastor Prince wrote about how David defeated Goliath.

At that time, I was helping my son prepare for his exams and that chapter was like God speaking to me. All the while, my son had found the subject, Mathematics, the most difficult and just didn’t seem to do well. Needless to say, he had the least confidence in his Mathematics paper which was two days away.

After reading the chapter, I felt that my son was like David and his Mathematics paper, his “Goliath”. I believed that if my son were to declare that the Lord’s armies were with him, he would be able to conquer his “Goliath”.

That night, I was excited. I felt like God telling me that this would be a turning point for my son. There was no looking back and he would experience greater success in the days to come.

The next day, I woke up early and read the daily devotion by Pastor Prince. The devotion for that day was another account of David defeating Goliath! I immediately knew it was no coincidence. I believed that God was with my son and therefore, he would do well for his paper.

The night before my son’s exam, I shared with him the devotion I read and told him not to fear. I also encouraged him to call out to God if he had problems solving the questions.

After his paper the next day, my son did not tell me how he felt. But he told me that he did ask God for help when he was stuck during the exam.

When the results were out, out of the four subjects, my son scored the highest for Mathematics — his “Goliath”. All glory to Jesus!

My son did not expect it at all. Our Lord Jesus is really good; He made my son’s worst subject to be his best subject.

Now, I don’t hear my son say that he is no good or lousy in Mathematics. In fact, according to him, all the questions that he asked God for help, turned out to be correct. Indeed, our Lord Jesus is a shout away and as Jesus is, so is my son. With God with my son, he is indeed a successful boy.

A God-Crafted Job Even In Difficult Times

My family relocated for over a year when my husband was posted overseas. This meant that I had to take a break from the company that I was working at. The company was gracious to grant me a sabbatical.

However, upon my return, I was informed that I would have to leave the company as my role was no longer available. I was given a monetary package even though I had not contributed to the company at all over the past year.

I had been in contact with a boss I had previously worked for who had just moved on to another company. When he heard that I was on the lookout for a new job, he started to work on crafting a position for me in his company. Over the subsequent months, he continually updated me on the progress.

I knew that these things take time, but I did not expect it to be so long. As the months passed, I started to question God, and doubts crept in my mind as to whether I the job would happen or not.

There were many around me that told me to start looking for other options, and not to expect too much since I’d been out of the workforce for a year, especially during this season where many are losing jobs. However, deep down inside of me, there was a still, small voice of assurance from the Lord to wait.

The breakthrough finally came just as the circuit breaker measures eased further, when my ex-boss called me and offered me the role he had crafted with me in mind. A great sense of God’s love came upon me, and I felt so favoured by the Lord. I did not have to go through any interviews for it, and it was also a double promotion with an increment that super exceeded my expectations! God restored my career in this Year of Time and Space!

This was truly God’s unmerited favour on me as I did not have to do anything at all. He knows the perfect timing, and even in this season, He has provided me a way!

Job Restoration Despite The COVID-19 Season

I was on a sabbatical before COVID-19 came about. I did not anticipate the disruption of COVID-19 and was discouraged. I was worried and was not sure if I could find a job in the current climate.

Despite all the worries, the Lord still opened doors for me in the month of January and February. However, all these jobs require me to take a significant pay cut. I told myself to keep looking to Jesus and believed that the right job would come.

Sure enough, a job offer for a management position came along with more than 10% increment from my previous salary! The culture was excellent and even in the current season, the company is still experiencing growth.

I realised that God’s hands were there each step of the way, leading and guiding me. He has worked everything in my favour. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for preaching the Word so zealously.

All glory and praise goes to Jesus!

Received Visa Extension Amidst Uncertainties

My niece has been in Singapore under a tourist visa since March. Her initial plan was to visit her fiancé in Singapore, go back home to Indonesia, and return later for her solemnisation with him.

When the COVID-19 situation got worse, she was worried that if she went back, she would not be able to return to Singapore. In the midst of these uncertainties, she told me that she felt God reaching out to her. I encouraged her to simply respond by acknowledging His love and sharing her concerns with Him. She started to pray, and experienced peace in her heart.

When she applied to extend her stay in Singapore, the officials told her that the chances were slim. I encouraged her to leave the matter to the Lord, and to continue praying.

The Lord heard her cries! Her visa was extended for another two months, giving her enough time to complete her solemnisation in Singapore.

My niece also shared with us that God never felt so real in her life until this COVID-19 season when she realised that she needed to lean on and find rest in Him. She then prayed to receive Christ as her Saviour!

Indeed, in these times, the Lord is reaching out to many souls and saving them. He is truly the Lord of time and space!

Supplied With Favour And Provision

In late 2018, I prayed for direction from the Lord to either continue a business that was not doing well or to look for a job. It was during that time that I received a call to discuss about a possible job.

The call came as a surprise as I had not been sending out resumes or started applying for jobs. I later realised that the hiring company is a high-ranking multi-national corporation, and the role which I was being called to apply for was in a management position. My qualifications were below what the job required, which added to my surprise. Additionally, the company’s office is within walking distance to my daughter’s nanny.

After a few rounds of interviews, I got the job. It was not easy as my boss demanded much from me and constantly asked for more. I struggled with limited resources and inexperience. On many occasions, the situation was so dire that all I could do was pray. By the end of 2019, my performance exceeded all the demands!

Today, I still don’t have the requirements needed for the job, but I’m leading a team of degree holders. Many people would say that I was lucky, but I know that I’m simply highly favoured and deeply loved by God. The blessings did not just end with me. My wife was also blessed with a job that pays higher than her expected salary.

God has given us much more than we had asked for. Throughout these experiences, God has also increased my faith. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your teachings on rest and letting Him take care of me!

Rightly Placed By God

My GCE A-Level result was not brilliant. When I received them three years ago, I prayed for God to give me a spot anywhere in a local public university.

The applications I sent were all rejected by the public universities and I had to enroll in a private one instead. I felt that the Lord had failed me, and even doubted the truth about His grace that Pastor Prince often preaches about. At that time, it was hard to believe God had a better plan for me.

At that time, I had left the youth ministry and only attended services on Sundays. In my first year of university, I decided to give the youth ministry another shot. At my first youth ministry service, I remembered feeling so welcomed in the Father’s house, and decided to continue attending.

Throughout my three years in university, my results were filled with ups and downs. However, in my final year, I could see the Lord’s hand guiding me through my exams. I felt at peace and at ease. At the end of my university journey, I managed to attain first-class honours!

The beautiful part of this journey was to see the Lord’s faithfulness, which is beyond my comprehension. Had I been in a local university, I might not have returned to the youth ministry and met the people who had prayed and spoken into my life. I have just been so blessed!

To God be the glory!

Focusing On Jesus Brings Breakthroughs!

In the past, I never had the habit of going to church. But on Resurrection Sunday this year, a friend of mine invited me to join her for a service at New Creation Church. Since it’s the first time anyone had invited me to a service, I decided to say yes. The sermon Pastor Prince preached that day helped me to understand more about Jesus, and what He did for us.

Two weeks ago, I contacted my friend, asking to join her for service again. That Sunday, Pastor Prince preached about how Jesus never abandons us in our valley seasons, but carries us through them. The sermon resonated with me as I was going through a divorce and I had lost the passion for my job.

The sermon encouraged me to know that Jesus is always near for me and that He would restore double of what we have lost. After that service, whenever I feel lonely or fearful, I will picture Jesus being there with me.

On Friday, I received a new job offer which pays double of what I’m making now! I know that the Lord is rebuilding my life. Thank you, Pastor Prince!

Open Door To Job Upon Graduation

When I was a design student in my final year, a graduation showcase was launched for the graduating cohort to showcase their works to potential employers. I put up my works but did not attend it myself.

On the last day of the showcase, as I was clearing up, I saw a few namecards placed on my table. I did not contact any of them, thinking that it probably meant nothing.

I then went for a vacation and during that time, I received two emails from potential employers. One of them was keen to meet me after seeing my works at the showcase and the other was a job offer from a position I had applied for earlier.

When my lecturer heard the news, he told me to be happy if I was offered a certain amount. But I believed the Lord for more. Amazingly, I was offered more than what my lecturer, or even I, could imagine.

Subsequently, I received two more offers without the need for interviews from employers who had seen my works at the graduation showcase. I was blessed with options and eventually settled on a regional role that was not normally given to someone my age.

Through this experience, the Lord showed me how He can open doors no man can shut. His grace is always superabounding!

Living Life To The Fullest With Christ

I received the Lord Jesus when I was 11. By the time I was 13, I was water baptised and had received the baptism of the Holy Spirit. I was on fire for the Lord, so much so that my parents became worried that my studies would be affected. To cut a long story short, they cut me off from attending church towards the end of my freshman year in high school.

Back then, I believed that by not going to church, I would fall away from God and He would be angry with me. I also believed that life would be more fun without Him. So when I was 15, I turned my back on Him, and told Him that I could not live the way He wanted me to because it was too hard. But if He would still want to have me, I would return to Him in my late 30s. 

Years later, I moved from the United States to Singapore, and started attending New Creation Church regularly. By then, I was 39. Then, I remembered the prayer I made to God when I was 15 and realised that He had been patiently waiting for me. After wasting many years carrying my sins around like a ball and chain, and suffering the emptiness that comes from trying to be happy apart from God, the Lord brought me back to Him, and even made sure that I got to hear the gospel of grace preached by Pastor Prince!  

At times, I fret over the years that I had wasted from not having believed right. But as I kept feeding on good spiritual food, and positioning myself to receive from my Abba, I kept growing in grace, and I am experiencing His blessings in my life manifested more and more. And praise the Lord, God has been restoring to me all that the locusts had eaten, and I am enjoying His blessings of the latter rain.

Last year, I had my cookbook published. In April this year, I received an email with news that my book had won an award as the best cookbook in Singapore, and it was in the running for an international award. Three months later, I attended the awards ceremony in Macau and I received the top prize! All glory to the Father of glory! Praise Jesus for His amazing favour! 

Today, I am 52 years young, and I have been attending New Creation Church for over 12 years. I consider it such a privilege and honour to be part of this wonderful church. I want to thank all the pastors, especially Pastor Prince, for teaching the Word and loving us.  

Now, I have come to realise that life is infinitely more fun with God!

The Wait Is Over—Mum Received Christ!

Ever since my sisters and I received Jesus, we had been believing the Lord for our mum’s salvation. We had brought her to our church’s Chinese services a number of times, but she was never receptive to the gospel. On one occasion, she got upset and even warned us to stop inviting her to church.

When Pastor Prince shared that 2019 is the Year of the Latter Rain, and encouraged us to be expectant for this to be the year we reap an overflowing harvest from our seeds of faith, we prayed and asked the Lord specifically for a breakthrough in this area.

Then, we found out that our mum had started to listen to the audio sermons we’ve shared with her previously. In May, we felt led to invite her to the Mother’s Day celebrations at the Mandarin service. To our surprise, she said yes readily.

After the service, we happened to meet Pastor Esther Tsang at the Connect Point. Pastor Esther ministered to our mum and she received Jesus as her Lord and Saviour! And so, just like this, our prayer for many years was answered. Glory to Jesus!

A Miracle Baby

In 2014, I was pregnant and had a detailed scanning done at the 20th week of my pregnancy. The doctor told my husband and me that our baby had a short femur. As I was turning 40, I faced a very high risk of having complications during pregnancy. Thus, the doctor referred me to a specialist and they concluded that my baby was four weeks behind normal growth, meaning that his legs and arms looked like he was 16 weeks old instead of 20 weeks old — with the likelihood that he could be a dwarf!

To confirm this, the doctors suggested that I take a test which was invasive to both the adult and baby, to determine if my genes or my husband’s genes had a family history of dwarfism, and if my baby was really a dwarf. If the result was positive, my husband and I could then make a decision to keep or abort the baby.

We were devastated by the heartbreaking news as we had found out that I was pregnant on Christmas Day, and believed that our baby was a gift from God.

Finally, my husband and I decided to keep our baby and not go for further tests. We trusted that God would make this precious gift PERFECT for us and give us a normal child. We claimed His promises in Psalm 139:1 and Psalm 139:5 (NLT), “O Lord, you have examined my heart and know everything about me… You go before me and follow me. You place your hand of blessing on my head.

We continued to rest in the Lord and knew that as long as we rest in His love for us, we are protected from all harm. In August 2014, I went through an emergency caesarean birth. Miraculously, a healthy baby was born. He is currently 22 months old, a healthy and happy boy, blessed with brains and good looks. To God be all the glory!

Blessed With A Better Job After Retrenchment

I was retrenched when I was 32. Being a mother of two young children, I was at a loss as to what to do next. I would have negative thoughts such as being unemployable and that I would never find another role that I like.

It was not easy, but my husband continually encouraged me to listen to Pastor Prince’s sermons, feed on the Word, and go to church every Sunday. Through these, my faith was renewed every day.

One of the sermons that I heard which greatly impacted me was on the book of Esther. Pastor Prince preached that even though God’s name wasn’t mentioned in the book, He was working behind the scenes all the time.

Hearing that, I knew and believed that I could trust God for favour and a breakthrough in my career.

Within a month after hearing that sermon, I received a job offer with an 80 per cent increment from the previous job! It was a miracle to me as I did not expect it at all. All glory to Him!

Scored Distinctions For Modules And Blessed With A Good Job

I was born into a Christian family but only attended church on special occasions such as Christmas Day or Good Friday.

About one-and-a-half years ago, while I was pursuing my degree, I had a dream about Jesus. Six months later, I happened to come across a Christian song video on social media. The video was entitled "Grace". After viewing the video, my heart was overwhelmed with the goodness of the Lord, and I cried uncontrollably.

Two months after this incident, just before my final paper, I experienced a meltdown. I had expedited this degree programme from its original two years duration to 16 months. Instead of taking two modules per trimester, I had decided to take three. As such, by the end of the last trimester, I was left with only about one week to study for three modules!

During the most stressful and desperate moments, I pleaded with the Lord to help me with my preparation. By then, I was left with only about two days to prepare for my final paper. I also told the Lord that I would go to church to hear His Word after I had completed my studies.

Just a few days before Christmas, one of my classmates messaged me and invited me to attend a service at New Creation Church. She told me that there was a special performance. Initially, I was quite reluctant and did not confirm my attendance with her. 

Miraculously on Christmas Eve, when my husband and I were sending one of my close friends home, I mentioned New Creation Church and she commented that it was a good church. She also added that there was once when the chimes sounded on their own while Pastor Prince was preaching.

Instantly, I decided to attend the service on Christmas Day, and I really enjoyed the sermon preached by Pastor Prince. Since then, I have been attending New Creation Church.

The Lord Jesus has also blessed me with more than what I had asked for when my results were released in January this year. Back then, I had only prayed for a pass or a credit, but He gave me distinctions for my last three modules!

I could not believe my eyes when I saw my results! Glory to Lord Jesus!

In addition, God has also blessed me with a great job that pays well, and I am enjoying it. The staff benefits, environment and colleagues are fabulous. I truly believe that this is the job that the Lord has blessed me with as I have prayed that I would be able to find a job that I can enjoy and with a conducive environment.

Glory to You, Lord Jesus.

Son Entered School Of Choice

In November 2018, we met Pastor Alvin Kang at my husband’s baptism, and asked him to pray for our son who was taking his Primary School Leaving Examinations end of the year. Pastor Alvin prophesised that Jesus’ fingerprints would be written all over his results. We were very encouraged by the word and held on to it.

On results day, my heart sank when I saw that my son’s score was one point short of entering his desired school. That night, God reminded me that his score had double five in it. As Pastor Alvin had prophesised, Jesus’ fingerprints were indeed written all over his results. The numbers were clear to me that we would experience His double and perfect grace.

The next morning, we continued to believe that God was working behind the scenes to lower the cut-off point for the school’s admission. We submitted the school application form and trusted God.

On 19 December, the day when the school posting results were out, I woke up early and waited for the text message from the Ministry of Education. The message arrived promptly, and my son was posted to the school of his choice! Glory to God!

It turned out that his school was one of the few that had their admission cut-off scores reduced that year. It had to be God's double and perfect grace in my son's life.

Not only so, in February this year, my son received a letter to visit the student health centre to check on his spine. Before seeing the doctor, we sat down and prayed for a normal report. And that was what exactly happened.

According to the doctor, school assessments were usually accurate but this was not so in our case. After reassessing my son’s spine, she confirmed that there was nothing wrong with him!

We know that Jesus is always for us and because He is, nothing can be against us. Hallelujah!

No Longer an Angry Mum

I used to struggle a lot with my temper. In the run-up to my son’s exams, daily blow-ups were a fixture in our household. After every incident, I would pray and ask God to change me. At that time, we were still relatively new to New Creation Church so I would deal with sin the same way I was taught in the past. I would confess my sin, ask for God’s forgiveness and vow not to do it again.

I also employed all kinds of strategies to try and stop losing my temper—by counting to 10, taking deep breaths, leaving the room, screaming into the pillow. I even made a poster for my children to wave in my face. It read, “Mummy, you are raising your voice! Please leave the room NOW to cool down!” Needless to say, none of them worked for long.

I spent a lot of time wondering why God was not answering my prayers and changing me. This sense of failure added to the guilt and worries I had over the impact of my actions on my son’s studies, leading to even more angry outbursts. I dreaded the year my son had to take his Primary School Leaving Examinations (PSLE). I couldn’t bear to think how I would turn out when I was already so out of control in a normal school year.

However, when we were seven months into the PSLE year in 2016, it suddenly occurred to me that our days had been incredibly peaceful! Even my children and husband all agreed that my temper had improved a lot.

The truth is, in the middle of the year before, my family faced new challenges that caused me to desperately seek Jesus. I began to play Pastor Prince’s sermons in the car, read grace-based devotionals and the Psalms, and declare out loud that I am the righteousness of God in Christ whenever I was fearful.

These constant reminders of Christ’s finished work, His love and my unassailable position in Him, gave me such peace, security and joy to face all the challenges. It even extended to the area of my son’s studies and I have not had to use any of the past strategies to control my temper.

When I returned to work and had less time to guide my boy in his studies, to manage my anxiety, we took to praying together every morning as I sent my children to school. We would start by reminding ourselves of what Jesus has done, our right standing in Him and how the blessings He deserves are now ours to receive through His finished work. Then, we would pray for God to give my son the desire to study and empower him to act out this desire. We asked for direction on what to study, how much to study and how to study. Praying over this every day has really contributed to the peace I had over the coming exams.

Praise be to God, my son did well for PSLE! We were amazed when he got an “A” for his Chinese as he had been getting only 50 to 60 marks since Primary 5. His aggregate score was also sufficient for him to get into the school he wanted and the Lord has been showering him with favour in his new school since then.

We are really humbled and overwhelmed by His goodness. My temper has become much better. There has been no more daily flare-ups and I can count with one hand the number of times I might have gotten irritated since 2016. Thankfully, these things have never escalated to the same intensity like before.

It is very clear to me now that when I was preoccupied with my temper problem and trying by my efforts to overcome it, I was bound to fail. Victory only came when I was no longer focused on the problem, not even on trying to solve it, but focused instead on Jesus and His finished work. All glory be to God!

God Promoted Me In Spite Of Corporate Downsizing

I started on a new job in June 2016. Despite being a fresh graduate, I secured the job even before my graduation, after only one interview! Talk about undeserved favour.

The Lord continued to cover me with His grace, and within six months, in January 2017, I received a promotion and a 20 per cent salary increment.

On Vision Sunday 2017, as we started the Year of Jubilee, Pastor Prince preached on the three keys to walking in the Lord’s Jubilee: Rest, hear, and flow. Little did I expect that this message would change my life.

In May 2017, my company lost a major partner and the company initiated a global restructuring process. We expected to downsize by about one-third of our workforce. The process took about five months to complete. Throughout this time, I was fearful of my job security and the longevity of the company. Colleagues and superiors left one by one, many of whom were good people.

But I clung to the Lord’s message and told Him, “You gave me this job, You will help me keep it, or You will find something better for me!” Praise and worship became a daily part of my life as I proclaimed His promises and rested in His grace. Listening to Pastor Prince’s sermons became a daily routine.

Meanwhile, I had been called up for several job interviews by headhunters, but none of them came through. At times, it was disheartening and I began questioning myself. Little did I know that the Lord had better and greater plans for me.

As the restructuring exercise drew to a close, our Lord not only kept my job safe, but awarded me a promotion to a management role, and an international transfer to Canada, with a 100 per cent increment! It was as if He was telling me, “Son, those other jobs are not good enough for you—I want to give you the best.”

God was faithful. About five months after I arrived in Canada, I received another promotion with a 20 per cent increment.

Truly, it would not have been possible by my own works—three promotions in two years, and I was fresh out of school. This could only be possible by God’s grace.

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for pointing us to Jesus, and showing us how much He loves us.

A Restful Job Search

Since March 2018, I had been on a search for a new job. There were days when my interviews were tough and times when there were no calls from potential employers even after a string of interviews. But I chose to listen to Pastor Prince’s messages on God’s goodness and faithfulness, and to rest in Him despite what I saw happening in the natural.

On 25 June, as I was praying for my next employment opportunity, I noticed that my prayer had become more restful — open to receive from God instead of begging Him for help. I even felt prompted to pray in tongues over this season of my life. 

On 27 June, a United Kingdom-based company suddenly contacted me and the director of the Singapore office asked to meet me in person. I knew it was not something I could make happen because I did not send them my curriculum vitae in the first place. After the interview, the director shared that I was his ideal candidate even though it was our first time meeting. 

Then, on 9 July, I had a final video call with the company’s managing director based in London. It was one of the smoothest and most relaxing interviews I have ever had. The managing director also took a liking to me and the responses I gave. Towards the end of the call, I knew that things were looking up and it was none of my doing.

On 11 July, I went for a meeting to discuss my employment contract with the company and was offered 30 per cent higher than what I had asked for. 

On 13 July, I received the official contract from the company and realised that the salary was 60 per cent higher than what I had asked for! 

As I rested in the Lord, He was the one turning the wheels for me and ordering my steps to work with this company. To God be the glory!

Promoted Seven Times In Less Than Five Years

I started serving in the youth ministry, The Zone, in 2007. Over the years, I have been part of various volunteer teams in church, and I believe that we serve not because we want to be blessed, but because we are first blessed by God. 

During those days, I ran a café in Holland Village. It wasn't easy to juggle the church ministry and business especially since weekends are peak periods at the café. I recall one of the most challenging things was having to serve at the first and second services on Sunday mornings after getting home at only 4am after work. 

I thank God for somehow keeping me in the ministry despite the lack of time. In fact, He prospered my café despite it being located in a quiet area. But in 2010, I chose to close down my business. While many people thought that it was business failure, it was actually a change in season for me. That year, I became a sales executive in the real estate industry and got married to an awesome loving wife. 

Given the drastic change in commitments, most people would have chosen to stop serving. But somehow by the grace of God, I just continued. In fact, I was so involved in the youth ministry that people were surprised I was not working in church full-time!

I was serving almost every weekend instead of meeting clients, so in the natural, my income should have dropped by half or more. But I believed that we would not be short-changed while taking care of Abba's beloved children. Sure enough, my income didn't drop but multiplied many times over. 

In addition, I was blessed with seven promotions in a span of less than five years and I became the youngest vice president of my company with a branch of more than 100 associates. It’s simply awesome how God blesses us with gifts, wisdom and finances, and then rewards us when we use them for His glory. 

A person might say, “I have nothing much to offer” or “I’m not ready”, but His strength is made perfect in our weakness! I would encourage you to take a step and be rooted in a ministry, as it’s where you will not only be kept safe but also be drenched by God’s abundant blessings. What the Lord has done for me is amazing and your turn is next!

Restoration In Son’s Studies

2011 was a very challenging year for me. It was the year when my son went through a rebellious stage and became very challenging to manage. To top it off, he was going to sit for his Primary School Leaving Examinations (PSLE).

In the end, he scored badly for his exams. At that time, I blamed God for allowing such a thing to happen. My son also felt condemned for failing me and withdrew into himself, putting a strain on our relationship.

Weeks later, Pastor Lawrence Lim preached a sermon that reminded us to judge God’s love based on the cross of Jesus and not our circumstances. There and then, I realised how self-centred I had been for being angry with God. Then, I heard God telling me not to use the world’s standard of success on my son. Since He was the one who created him, how would He love him less and not want him to be successful in life? All He wanted me to do was to trust in Him and let go of the situation to Him.

When my son entered Secondary 1, I learnt to parent with grace. I also began to see that education isn’t everything in life but letting him encounter Jesus is the top priority. From then on, my desire was for him to have Jesus in his life and love going to church.

After attending DARE, the youth group for secondary school students, my son began to change for the better. I was amazed at his growth in his walk with the Lord and I heard positive remarks coming from his leaders.

Despite this, my relationship with my son hadn’t gotten better. At times, I still felt guilty and condemned for failing to be a good mum, but the sermons on the gospel of grace constantly reminded me to trust in God.

In 2015, my son sat for his GCE N Levels examinations. My hubby and I were hoping that he could do well enough to get into polytechnic, but we knew that he was not confident due to his bad PSLE results. Nonetheless, after Pastor Prince shared that it would be a year of His restoration, I encouraged my son to look to Jesus for restoration in his studies.

Before the end of 2015, we experienced His restoration indeed! Not only did Jesus cause my son to perform well enough to enter his desired course, He also restored my son’s confidence. Most importantly, my relationship with my son was also restored! The invisible wall that separated us was broken down. Praise Jesus! Now I see that His ways and plans are far better than what my small mind can think.

More Than Just A Pass

By the grace of God, I graduated from medical school in 2012. As an internist (a doctor of internal medicine), the next hurdle in my career progression was the Membership of the Royal Colleges of Physicians (MRCP) examination.

I was blessed to be married to a wonderful wife in May 2017 and we moved into our new place in August. However, this also meant that there were a lot of things to settle, including renovation, etc., on top of my hectic work schedule, which left me with little time for my studies.

This was indeed very challenging for me given the time constraint as I never considered myself as one of the “smarter” ones in my cohort.

My peers generally take about three months or so to prepare for this exam, while I had barely less than a month to do so. Nearing the exam in October, I received news that the passing rate for the previous seating was only about 20 per cent for my cluster and some friends had shared their decision to postpone taking the exam to the following year when they are more prepared.

In addition, I also had a few ominous “nightmares”, such as arriving late or forgetting to bring the necessary documents for the exam. All these intimidated me and I was feeling ashamed for having so little faith despite being a Christian all my life.

Nevertheless, I continued listening to Pastor Prince’s sermons and attending church, even though I could have used the time to study. I entrusted everything into His hands as there was nothing else I could do. The exam did not go as smoothly as I hoped, which dampened my morale. I went from praying for “excellent results” to praying for “a simple pass”.

Yet, my results showed that not only did I pass, but I also did pretty well. This is definitely all of Him and none of me as it was impossible for me to even pass, let alone do well. Praise God and all glory to Him!

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your constant reminders of His grace and goodness that strengthen our walk of faith.

Admitted Into Desired Course

My results weren’t good for my upper secondary school year, and for my last prelims, I scored a bad aggregate of 34 points. Hence, my prayer request for 2017 was to improve my score and get into the polytechnic course that I was interested in.

By God’s favour, I was conditionally accepted into my desired course through an early admission exercise in July. It was contingent on me passing the English and mathematics papers and achieving an aggregate score of 26 points and below.

Towards the end of 2017, I sat for my GCE O Levels examinations. Even though I felt that I did not do well in many subjects, I continued to trust the Lord for a good outcome.

In 2018, my prayer request was to successfully enter my desired course. However, when I received my results, I was sad to find out that I had failed my mathematics paper. As a result, my admission into the course was revoked.

Although I was at a loss, I still believed that since the Lord had opened the door for me through the early admission exercise, no one could shut it. While my family and I were still trying to find out how to make an appeal, we received a call from the polytechnic saying that they would make an exception and accept me into the course.

God answered my prayer! I felt so loved by God. Indeed, He has already gone ahead of me to prepare everything. Where there seemed to be no way, God made a way.

I accepted the offer immediately and was the first among my friends to be registered in the course I desired. Indeed, the last has become the first. Thank You, Jesus!

End Of Wandering In The Wilderness

Since I started working over a decade ago, I had enjoyed a smooth-sailing career despite the frequent changes in industry. By my mid-30s, I was already taking on the role of a general manager and drawing a decent pay.

In early-2016, things began to go downhill when the company I was working for changed ownership and I could not agree with some of their practices. Then, in August 2016, I was released from the company with no valid reason and did not receive a fair compensation.

In the past, I never had problems looking for a job. I had been headhunted five times and each time, I was given a good pay raise. So I thought things would be fine this time round too.

When I was unemployed, everyone advised me to take on any job — even if it meant a pay cut — as the job market was bad and I have a family to feed. However, I was quite adamant that my God is bigger than the market conditions, and I would have a better job in no time. Yet, this painful wait lasted for 12 months.  

Call-ups were far and few between and all the interviews I went for didn’t turn out as well as expected. I had never felt more frustrated and demoralised.

In September 2017, I finally landed a job in an investment start-up with a 30 per cent pay cut. Just when I thought the turmoil was over, the start-up ceased operations due to financing problems. In February 2018, I found myself unemployed again. I had exhausted all my savings.

In order to make ends meet, I decided to become a driver. Gradually, I became very disappointed and frustrated with myself and with God. I also began losing confidence in myself and God.

Each time I dragged my body out of bed at 4am to drive, I couldn’t help but lament. As I was exhausted from driving, my wife took over the duty of applying for jobs for me.

Though I experienced an increase in call-ups and went for a couple of interviews, nothing worked out.

Then, I was scheduled for a particular interview on 30 May 2018. This was especially important as we were moving house and I needed more money to finance our housing loan.

On Sunday, 27 May 2018, I could not attend service in church due to other appointments. My sister who attended the first service texted me excitedly saying that she had received a Word from Pastor Prince on my behalf.

She shared that Pastor Prince released a word for someone who had lost his employment, not once but twice, and she felt that that was for me. She reminded me to continue trusting in God.

Then, I told her about the interview which I was attending that week and promised to keep her posted.

Come interview day, I saw no less than eight candidates vying for the same job. It was so intense and serious that I did not even get a chance to shake my interviewers’ hands. I thought it was over. However, I could not believe my ears when I received a call from the human resource department the next day saying they would be conducting reference checks.

In less than a week, I received a confirmation that they would be making me an offer and I would be commencing work at the start of July!

Finally, my almost two years of “wandering in the wilderness” had come to an end. This job offer, coupled with the affirmation from God, made me realise that He is real. I have no reason to think otherwise. All glory and thanks to Him!

Daughter Offered A Place In University Programme

In 2013, my younger girl sat for her GCE O Levels examinations. When her results came out, she could not decide which school to join. 

Eventually, she decided to enrol into a junior college. However, no matter how hard she studied, she could not cope with the fast pace and rigorous curriculum.  

This affected her well-being and health. To make matters worse, her teacher told her that she would fail badly and end up repeating a year. As a result, she started contemplating switching to a polytechnic.     

At that time, I felt that her chances of entering a local university would be diminished if she left college. But my wife had a greater perspective of God, and strongly advised her to apply for a polytechnic.   

Praise the Lord, she managed to enter the psychology and early childhood course, and graduated with good grades. 

By God’s grace, she was given a job at an established childcare centre after graduation and her starting pay was also higher than her peers. She even received a good performance bonus which was completely unexpected. 

In March 2018, she decided to further her studies. Knowing that I was concerned about the cost of putting her through a private university, she opted for autonomous universities instead. 

Initially, there was no news regarding her applications and she started to worry. But the Lord blessed her with two interviews. 

During this time, I was concerned that she would not be accepted into a university because of her grades. But she continued to attend the youth ministry and got her care group to pray for her. She would also attend Encounter Nights after work to receive from the Word. 

Truly, when you delight in the Lord, He will give you the desires of your heart (ref.: Psalm 37:4). On 2 May 2018, she received the good news that she had been offered a place in a university! Praise the Lord! It was certainly a miracle from the Lord!

God Qualifies The Unqualified

After my graduation in 2014, I was given an opportunity to work as a trainee in a logistics company. After a year, I was offered a permanent post. 

However, I decided to resign in May 2016 after the company lost one of their biggest contracts, and I felt that there was a lack of growth. 

I was unemployed for two years. I tried applying for jobs but they were all unsuccessful. One day, when I was watching Pastor Joseph Prince’s sermons on TV, I heard him talk about rest and decided to let go of my worries and rest in Abba Father's grace.

In February 2018, I applied for a learner post in one of the world's biggest companies. In March, I received a call to attend an interview with them. A few weeks later, I was called up for a second interview. This time round, they interviewed me for a newly-vacant supervisor role.  

Weeks later, I was called up again for a third interview and the following month, I kept listening to sermons and partaking of the Holy Communion every night.

Every chance I got, I would declare that I am the righteousness of God in Christ and I am His beloved. After weeks of waiting, I finally received a job offer. 

I was given a salary that was double of what I used to get. I am humbled that God didn't just grant me a job but a position that I didn't even think that I was qualified for. 

When I signed the contract with the human resource manager, I was told that my case was unusual in the company. Usually, they would not offer a supervisory role to an external applicant who did not even apply for the job in the first place. 

Truly, God qualifies the unqualified. Glory to God! Thank you, Pastor Prince, for teaching us the true gospel of grace!

From Lowest Quartile To Straight As And A Scholarship

As a student preparing for my GCE A Levels examinations in 2017, I was always in the lowest quartile of my class. I struggled to pass some subjects and always felt insecure in comparison to my high-achieving classmates. Also, during the examinations, I did not manage to complete some of the papers and made several mistakes like misreading the questions.

However, God was on my side and had an amazing plan for me. I meditated on the verse from Jeremiah 29:11, NIV, “’For I know the plans I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future’.” I knew that my awesome Abba in heaven would provide and I did not have to worry about the future. Instead, I put my situation into His hands and let Him take charge, while I rested in faith.

On the day the A Levels results were released, God blessed me bountifully with eight straight As! I knew that this was indeed the hand of God for this would have been impossible by my own efforts.

Thanks be to Abba God who gives good gifts to His children, as He also provided me with a fully-funded scholarship! All things work out for the good of those who are called according to His purpose (ref.: Romans 8:28)!

Protected From Lawsuit And Enjoying A New Career

In 2014, I was at my lowest point in my life, having been tricked by a business partner in the United States where I was working. As a result, I had to face a long legal battle.

I always considered my extensive educational qualifications and stellar career as a result of my own effort. And so, when I was in a pit of despair caused by my self-willed belief that I knew best, I thought that I could overcome the problems caused by my fraudulent business partner.

I even considered ending my life. During a phone call with my wife in Singapore, she told me that God did not condemn me for my mess and mistakes. It was too much for me to take in initially, but I was also encouraged and amazed.

God truly kept me safe and protected though it was a hellish time. I returned to Singapore, and even though I was in a state of depression, I went to New Creation Church (NCC) every Sunday and very slowly began my journey of faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.

He provided openings for new jobs and one by one, all the legal charges against me were dropped. Today, I enjoy a new career, renewed optimism and above all, I know that God provides for me and that it is all His doing.

People remark on how relaxed and happy I look. I thank NCC for helping me learn about the goodness and faithfulness of our Lord Jesus. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your ministry and focus on the only thing that matters — the Lord Jesus Christ.

Studies And Career Blessed

At the age of 36 and with three kids to raise, I decided to pursue a second career in law. But I was worried as I was a decade older than most of the other fresh graduates, and the last time I took an examination was more than a decade ago.

Furthermore, I had not worked since my kids were born five years back. I felt out of touch and the working world seemed so foreign and intimidating.

Praise God for His strength and faithfulness. Throughout the course, there were numerous times when I questioned myself if it was the right thing to do and I would become very stressed out when I could not understand the course.

But I kept my eye on the Lord. I would paste verses at my study area and kept repeating, “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”

During the exams, I was convinced that I had written the wrong things and was bound to fail. I even wished that our law exam papers would somehow get lost in transit!

But our good and faithful God carried me through. Against all odds, I passed the exams and even got a distinction. I knew it was God and not me. I also thank God for His guidance and favour at work.

During my training at the law firm, I found myself floundering as the oldest trainee and I felt that I needed more time to do the things as compared to the other trainees. I also had a hard time trying to understand the work given to me.  

But out of the three trainees at the law firm, I was the only one who was given an offer to stay on.

Though at times, I still do not know what to do at work, I know God will guide me. I feel so unworthy but I understand this is truly the unearned and unmerited favour of God.

Attending New Creation Church and hearing Pastor Prince’s sermons refreshes and encourages me. I also thank my dear hubby and my family for their support.

Resting Delivered Good PSLE Results

Psalm 65:11 says, “You (God) crown the year with Your goodness and Your paths drip with abundance”. This has certainly been true for me!

I am a 12-year-old girl who has been richly blessed by God! This year, my classmates complained about feeling stressed as their parents were pushing them to study hard for the final year examinations. Unlike them, I experienced zero stress!

They stared at me in disbelief when I said that by God's grace, I would do well for the preliminary examinations. One of my friends said that I was being overconfident and boastful, and that “God would only help those who help themselves”.

Despite all these, I rested in God during the preliminary examination period, read the Bible and anointed myself with the anointing oil! I was encouraged by Deuteronomy 28:13 that said that the Lord will make me the head and not the tail, and I would be above only and not be beneath. When the preliminary examination results were released, everyone was stunned to find that I was placed amongst the top three in my standard despite having studied the least!

When asked what my secret was, I told them that it was because of God's grace. During the Primary School Leaving Examination (PSLE) preparation, I also relaxed and read the Bible. On the first day of PSLE, my friends panicked but I kept cool, prayed and anointed myself with the anointing oil.

I was shocked to see my PSLE results! They were good enough for me to choose any school I wanted! I thought I was dreaming and had to pinch myself just to confirm that it was real. I thank God for without Him, I would never have achieved this! Indeed, Papa God has crowned my year with His goodness. Amen!

Favour After Favour In Job Search

Last year, before I graduated with a diploma, my father, knowing that I planned to take up a Bachelor Degree, broke the news that he would not be able to support me in my further studies. Devastated as I was, I believed that when a window closes, my Abba Father will open doors, gates and even roofs for me.

Soon enough, I came to realise that the field I was studying in wasn’t exactly my passion. At that time, as I was finishing my studies, my lecturer emailed me about an opening for a part-time position at a media pop-up store because she knew that I loved writing. She told me it could be an interesting experience as the pop-up store had an editorial team working there. I decided to take it up and was accepted for the job.

While working at the store, I observed their daily operations and got to know the team. I was sure this was what I wanted but I told Jesus I didn’t have the courage to request for an internship because I wasn’t even studying in a related field. Miraculously, a few days after that, the team’s marketing manager came over to my desk during lunch and we had a chat. Out of nowhere, she suddenly asked me if I would be interested for an editorial internship! I was dumbfounded and amazed that God had answered my prayer, and I said yes.

After an interview and a writing test, I was accepted for the internship. What started as a three-month internship grew into eight months. I loved my job and the company, so I prayed again to Abba for a full-time position in the company. However, I had to fly home to Indonesia as my parents could not support me financially anymore. When the Editor I worked under learnt that I was leaving, she asked if I would be interested to do freelance work for them from home. Again, I was amazed that my God had blessed me with so much favour. I accepted the offer and worked from Indonesia while I spent time with my family.

After a few months, I felt an urge in my heart to stop working from home. I wanted to work in a team and learn more, as a dream to start my own company in the future was planted in my heart. So I asked the Editor-in-Chief of my company if they had a full-time position in Singapore but he said the office’s headcount was limited at that time. I still had faith that God had other plans for me.

I decided to fly back to Singapore and continue my job search here. My parents told me they could only support me financially for two months. I told them it was more than enough because I knew my God had secured the perfect position with a more-than-enough salary for me.

During my first week back in Singapore in March 2017, Pastor Edwin Lim led the Holy Communion prayer during a Sunday service I attended, and one of the first things he said was about success in a job search and a job interview! I felt God’s loving reassurance for me, and all my worries vanished immediately.

Two weeks later, my former Editor-in-Chief suddenly texted me about a job opening in one of his acquaintance’s company. He told me he was devastated that he had to refer me to a competitor because he wanted me to join his company once the headcount opened up, but he knew I needed a job. I was deeply touched and grateful that God had led him to think of me and refer me to a competitor!

I applied for the job, attended an interview and went through a few writing tests. While waiting for the outcome, I knew in my heart that I would be accepted because God had led me to this, so I prayed to Him for a salary enough to support myself independently.

A week later, my acceptance email arrived, and the salary offer way exceeded my expectations! Praise Jesus! He doesn’t bless us with “just enough” — that’s not our God in heaven, He blesses with more than enough so that we could bless others around us.

Looking back, it was favour after favour — from my lecturer to my former Editor-in-Chief. I knew I had favour with them not because of who I am or because of my abilities. It was all God. Just like Joseph in the Bible, I started with nothing but I am successful because the Lord is with me. With no qualifications, I ended up with a job that I am passionate about with substantial salary. I am expectant and look forward to the better days that are ahead of me, knowing that my Abba Father is with me every step of the way.

Thank You, Jesus! And thank you, Pastor Prince and New Creation Church!

Marriage Restored and Family Blessed

My relationship with my wife turned really bad after the birth of our second child. As young parents we were not able to cope with two young children who were a year apart. Things got worse when we became stressed at work. We quarrelled frequently and had less time with each other. Our lives seemed to revolve around the children and work.

We finally separated and engaged lawyers to end the relationship. My wife and children moved to stay with my in‑laws. At this darkest point in our lives, God divinely arranged for us to attend New Creation Church without each other’s knowledge. When I found out that my wife and children were attending the same church as me, I suggested fetching them to church every week.

Though things were still gloomy, both my wife and I chose to fix our eyes on Jesus as our only way to salvation. Weeks of hearing and learning about what Jesus has done for us slowly set us free from stress and anger. We began to love each other again with Jesus in our midst.

By the grace of God my wife and I eventually reconciled and our relationship is now better than ever before.

Our third child was born within four years after we had separated, and my wife has found a new job that offers better work‑life balance. She was also promoted within two years, and in the third year she was transferred to the department of her choice, where the work is easier to manage. Indeed with Jesus, everything is possible!

Open Doors and Favour Despite Lack of Experience

When I first started as a special needs teacher in 2013, I had no experience working with children with special needs. All I had was a desire to work with children and two completely irrelevant degrees. This troubled me greatly as I knew nothing about teaching the children.

Before I got the job, I remember sharing my concern with the panel of interviewers and asked if there were any courses in Singapore which I could go for.

I was told that there was a course that was recognised by the school and it was an Advanced Diploma In Early Childhood Intervention (Special Needs). However, they also shared that only teachers who have at least two or three years of experience would be sent for this course. Hence, I would be given on–the–job and in–house trainings for the time being.

When I came out of the interview, I told God, “God, I know nothing! If You give me this job, You’ve got to be with me! You will have to personally teach me how to teach the children, and give me all the skills, wisdom and knowledge that I need. I can only depend on You!”

And that was the way it went. I kept praying the same prayer every day as I had to depend on Him daily. I had no experience but I have God with me. And He gave me favour with the parents who were in class daily with their children. They loved me, trusted me and taught me many things in my first year. God also granted me so much wisdom such that my trainers could not believe that I was a new teacher.

Before the June holidays in 2013, I decided to ask the manager of the Early Intervention Programme for Infants & Children (EIPIC) about the advanced diploma programme again. However, her reply was the same as my interviewers. They would only send teachers who had at least two to three years of experience.

When I went out of the room, I said a simple prayer telling God that since He placed me in this job, I was going to trust Him to open the doors for me.

I forgot about this prayer until I was called into her office in August that same year. She told me that she was going to send me for the course!

Everyone around me told me how “lucky” I was to be sent for the course in my first year of work, and how this had never happened before.

When everyone stood up to introduce themselves on the first day of the course, I was the only person in the class with only half a year’s experience in the job while the rest had been teaching for at least two years!

God opened doors for me which no one else had gone before! Amazingly, the theme of the year in 2013 was “The Key of David” — the year of opened doors. After this, more good news followed.

Over the course of two years, there were so many times I felt overwhelmed by the assignments and work. I would ask God for wisdom and declare favour with the examiners who were going to read and grade my work. I kept confessing that I am the head and not the tail, above and not beneath, even though I had the least experience in the class.

In May 2016, I graduated and praise God, I received the “Most Outstanding Academic Performance Award” from the National Council of Social Service!

God has taken someone like me who was the least, to be the head and not the tail. He helped me produce quality essays that I could not even recognise my own work sometimes.

It was a surreal moment when I walked on the stage to receive the award — not because of the applause I was getting, but because I knew with all my heart and soul that it could only be God.

God’s grace did not stop there. Recently, I was offered a promotion to become a Senior Teacher. Again, I was undeserving of this promotion as it was typically offered to those who had at least five years of experience but I was only three–and–a–half years into my job. When asked, my bosses told me that I carried a “certain kind of presence”. Though they did not know what this “presence” was, I knew it was the presence of God with me. It is certainly God who has accelerated my career. Praise Jesus!

Open Doors of Favour During His Job Pursuit

On 26 October 2015, I was given a golden handshake by my previous employer. At that time, I was the company’s general manager.

To be honest, I felt relieved in a certain way and trusted God that something better was waiting for me. I felt prompted to start a consulting firm and tap into a specific skill I had. I also took on photography assignments to earn some income on the side, and it was amazing to see how Abba Father opened doors for me during this period.

That year, I was able to draw income from my consulting firm, photography assignments and from my role as an adjunct lecturer. I had tried to apply to teach in various universities before but never got an interview. But during this period, God opened doors for me to lecture in two universities.

However, my heart’s desire was to return to the workforce full-time. All in all, I applied for thousands of jobs and went for a couple of interviews, but nothing materialised. Even potential roles promised by a few of my friends fell through.

Over time, I was concerned that I would remain jobless. Although I was at rest in my heart and spirit, I felt that I could do more. Hence, I decided to take up a taxi licence and started driving in June 2016.

In the first two weeks of driving, I had to work for around 14 to16 hours a day. I became physically tired and began putting my hopes in some of the potential jobs which I felt I could stand a high chance.

While having lunch one day, I received disappointing phone calls informing me that the three potential jobs I had put my hopes on were closed doors. I felt really lost and began to tear up. I texted my wife who then called to encourage me. Her words lifted me up and pointed me back to Jesus.

It was then that I realised that I had been focusing on my situation and looking to men instead of looking to Jesus. Though I would take the time to seek the Lord, partake of the Holy Communion, speak in tongues and read Pastor Prince’s daily devotional and meditate on God’s Word, somehow along the way, I became restless and allowed my physical tiredness to overwhelm me.

I decided to take a week’s break and look for a relief driver to cover me in the day. I also made sure that I enjoyed myself and took each day as it came — trusting Abba Father for His provision.

Compared to most taxi drivers, my earnings were considered high. I thank God for His favour and protection. Even though no job opportunity arose, I kept reminding myself of Daddy God’s love for me believing that I could not fail in life because I am a child of the Most High God.

During this time, Daddy God kept pointing me to Genesis 39:2 that talked about Joseph being a successful man even though he was a slave because the Lord was with him. It also reminded me to be restful and that I am a successful man as along as God is with me. I am also thankful for my fellow ministry servers who encouraged me. Their love and fellowship had made my 2016 a memorable year.

Then on 1 September 2016, I drove to a hotel to queue for passengers. When I arrived, there were about 10 taxis in the queue. Deciding not to waste time waiting, I made a U-turn for the exit.

Just then, I got a booking request from the same hotel, and I made a bid for it. After winning the bid, I made my way in again to pick up the passenger. Interestingly, those taxis in the queue didn’t win the bid, and thankfully, the guest did not walk out of the main lobby. Otherwise, he would realise there was no need to book a taxi.

I picked up the passenger who is an American, and we chatted during the journey. He happened to work in a multinational corporation in the aerospace industry. It was his first time in Singapore and the last day before he flew home.

During the ride, I asked him if there was any job opportunity in his company and he asked me to email him my résumé. I did it right away after I alighted him at his destination. Thereafter, I didn’t think much of it and carried on with my daily routine.

Incredibly, he kept emailing me updates of my job application. Eventually, the head office in the United States (US) approved to increase one headcount in his department.

In mid-October, he flew back to Singapore to set up an interview with the Singapore management. He even took the time to have dinner with me to prepare me for the interview. When I asked him how many candidates were vying for this role, he simply replied with a big smile and said, “You are THE candidate.”

The interview went well, and I got the job. But it took another two and a half months before the letter of appointment was offered because this was the first time this role is being filled by a foreigner outside the US, and they had a lot of paperwork to do!

That was truly a lot of favour from a person whom I had met for only 25 minutes in a taxi ride. Moreover, the role is a perfect fit for all my industry skills and experiences. Only Daddy God can create such an opportunity, and through a way that everyone knows that it can only be Him so He takes all the glory.

Before I end this testimony, I just want to open up a bit about myself. I have a doctorate in Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, and a Master’s degree in Business Administration. I also hold five international patents by the age of 32. However, all these achievements are useless without Jesus in my life because I can only do all things through Him. I would like to give all glory to Jesus! And thank you, Pastor Prince, and New Creation Church, for teaching the gospel!

Possessing His Possessions in the Year 2016

“Possessing Our Possessions” is our church’s theme for the year 2016 and this is based on the Old Testament story on how God delivered His people into the Promised Land after 40 years in the wilderness.

I was looking forward to what my Promised Land would be. But as time passed, it seemed as though I had spent most of my 2016 in the wilderness rather than the Promised Land.

Earlier this year, a family member went through a difficult time and I took time to help her through it. I also performed poorly in my sales as I tried to protect my client's interests by advising them not to take unnecessary risks in the months leading up to Brexit.

Despite being aware of my challenges, my apathetic bosses placed me on performance management measures and I was threatened with termination.

Rather than be terminated, I thought I could leave the company and look for a new job. However, the job market was difficult as news of private bank laying off their bankers shook the industry.

Throughout this difficult period, God repeatedly spoke to me through Isaiah 41:10, “Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.”

I believed in Him and tried to keep my peace and focus on my life and family, especially my supportive wife and lovely daughter, Hannah who was growing up so fast.

God is good and faithful. First, He delivered some big ticket deals that helped me keep my job. Then in November, He delivered me out from this wilderness by opening the door to a new job that I had always dreamt of. He really knows the desires of my heart.

The amazing thing was the job market continued to be challenging and the role was placed by another brother in Christ, a headhunter based in Malaysia and whom I have yet to meet in person.

Finally, I am really excited to share that God has blessed us with another child. We had been praying for a sibling to accompany Hannah for the longest time. God's timing is perfect. This news came on the same week that I had resigned from my old job. If my wife were to be pregnant anytime earlier, s she would have to deal with morning sickness and worry about my job at the same time.

No matter how meticulous and thorough our planning, we can never outplan God. His plan is perfect and delivered at the perfect timing.

All glory and honour be to Him.

Undeserved and Unmerited Blessing in New Career

At the beginning of 2016, a new manager took over our department. Somehow, she didn’t like me and kept making things difficult for me.

I dreaded going to work every day and had to listen to many sermons and motivational videos at night to “recharge” so that I could have the strength to go to work the next day.

Time after time, God spoke to me through people, sermons and even promptings, to leave my job and that He had something better for me. But I just didn’t have the courage to leave because it was my first job after graduation.

It affected my health but I still held onto my job until I really couldn’t take it any longer and left in July 2016. I left the office feeling as if a 10,000-tonne weight had just lifted off my shoulders. I felt so relieved and at peace.

I started my job search. One month passed, two months passed, but still no result. I read in the news that Singapore might be entering technical recession and companies were having massive retrenchments.

Fear started to set in. “What if I remain unemployed for too long and companies become less willing to hire me? What if I would never ever going to get a job? What am I going to do with my bills?”

At that point, I finally understood what Pastor Prince meant when he said we ought to read the good news which is the Bible, rather than the bad news — the newspapers. The knowledge of a weak job market and becoming fearful as a result, did nothing to help me get a job. Instead, it was counterproductive.

Along the way, I read and heard testimonies about how other people had possessed their possessions. People who lost their job found something even better. I had faith and believed, but it did not happen to me. I wondered when I would be able to receive my restoration like the testimonies I had heard.

Friends in church began to share their testimonies on how they had found better jobs after going through something similar. But the more I heard their testimonies, the more bitter I grew towards God and at myself for quitting without a job. I felt ashamed and condemned for not being able to keep my job for a year and for a fresh graduate, this did not look good on my résumé.

Nevertheless, I kept listening to the Word and attending Sunday services. Although nothing seemed to be entering my mind, something was entering into my heart. I felt encouraged and uplifted each time I heard the Word. I stopped focusing on getting a job, but putting my trust in God for provision. Since He had provided for so many people whose testimonies I had heard, I believe He would provide for me.

Just like boiling a pot of soup, the longer you simmer it, the better the taste. Likewise, the longer I waited for my restoration, the better it seemed to get.

On 24 November 2016, I got a call from a multinational oil trading company offering me a job. I was also told that the start date would likely be in January 2017 but instead, I started work the following week — God wanted me to possess my possession in 2016!

It was really an undeserved and unmerited blessing because this role required someone who has a Master’s degree with at least two to three years of experience, whereas I am only a fresh graduate with no relevant experience.

When I was an undergraduate, I had wanted to go into oil trading, but there was no opportunity as the industry was going through a tough time. Since then, I had completely forgotten about my passion for it and did not think that I would have the chance to enter this industry.

But God remembered. He called me out of my previous job because He has prepared something even better for me!

Walk with God and Daughter’s Studies Transformed by Grace

I have been a Christian for many years and attended church regularly. I always thought that to know God was to be in church, attend care group meetings, do the right things and be obedient. However, I didn’t enjoy spending time in the Word because I didn’t seem to be able to get any revelation from God.

Then in mid–2014, the Lord led me to listen to Pastor Prince’s sermons. Week after week, day after day, I kept receiving the revelation that I am God’s beloved and that I am the righteousness of God in Christ.

His grace empowered me and eventually, something changed inside my heart. I enjoyed worshipping the Lord, reading His Word on my own and listening to sermons.

Over the last two–and–a–half years, I began to rebuild my personal relationship with God. I would receive revelations whenever I read His Word, read or listen to Pastor Prince’s messages. I also began to meditate on verses that speak to me.

I started to receive God’s promises and rhema word, and began to change. The most visible change in me was that I was no longer a harsh mum who believed that results were everything. I used to scold my daughter very badly when she did not do well in school.

But after hearing Pastor Prince’s messages on grace, I now speak grace to my children because His grace governs the way I lead my life.

Then, my daughter started to receive her breakthrough in her studies. From a semestral assessment score of 235, she went on to score 266 for her Primary School Leaving Examinations last year. God is amazing! I was also inspired by the Lord to set up a personal blog to pen down all my revelations from Him after learning so much about His grace.

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for preaching the message of grace. It has changed my life, my believing and my thinking! I am so in love with our Lord Jesus Christ now!

Multiple Job Offers During Bad Times

After the first company restructure in 2014, I became a personal assistant to my second boss. When the company went through another restructuring in 2016, my boss resigned with a short notice. The day after she left the company, I was given one month’s termination notice and received a month’s pay as compensation. I was told I was not given three months’ compensation because it was not a retrenchment.

Since 2014, I had been searching for a new job on and off as I knew that the company was unstable. However, it was only after getting the termination notice in 2016 that I started to actively hunt for a job. While the job market seemed bleak, I remembered Pastor Prince’s teaching about keeping our eyes on Jesus instead of looking at our circumstances.

To help myself look to Jesus, I ignored all the negatives news and bad reports which the recruitment agents tried to tell me. I kept listening to worship songs and Pastor Prince’s sermons on YouTube throughout the day. I kept proclaiming that God is my provider, believing that He would get the right job for me.

During the last week of my work, I received two job offers, both of which I did not apply for. One offer was from an agency who had contacted me after searching through their old databases. I went for an interview and was offered the job on the same day. The other offer was from a company which I had attended an interview at more than a year ago. It did not work out then because I was not immediately available to start work. They contacted me when they have the same opening because I left a deep impression on them. After that, I also received a third job offer.

It is all the work of God that I did not just receive one, but three job offers within a month when the job market was considered bad. After accepting one of the job offers, I came across one of Pastor Prince’s sermons Five Words To Live By — The Battle Is The Lord’s. I know that when we turn our eyes to Jesus, Jesus is the one fighting the battle for us. It is not my battle, it is His.

What’s more, I now have a job with a higher pay of almost 18 per cent increment and better benefits. The compensation I received from my previous company became a “bonus” and “paid holiday”. Praise God! Hallelujah!

Protected While Travelling

I was scheduled to travel to New York City to attend a conference from 3 to 13 September 2016. It was one of my typical conference trips but this time round, my wife felt uneasy as I would be near the vicinity of the World Trade Center on 11 September, the place that was attacked by the terrorists in 2001 on the same day. She prayed for my safety and asked me to do so as well.

On 3 September 2016, I flew to Narita, Tokyo to transit to the States. As I was about to board the flight from Narita to Houston, Texas, I remembered what Pastor Prince said about divine protection during overseas travel. As I stepped into the plane, I touched the plane with my hands and declared the blood of Jesus over it. After we had been seated for a while, we were told that the plane had some technical issues and the take–off would be delayed. I did not think much of it and waited for another 30 minutes until another announcement advised the passengers to leave the plane and wait at the lobby area as the delay was going to be longer than expected.

Over time, more and more passengers left the plane for the lobby area. Everyone was getting more restless, curious and apprehensive.

After waiting for around two hours, an airline crew member announced that the flight was cancelled, as the rudder had a faulty actuator which could not be replaced within the short timeframe. He mentioned that flight cancellation was extremely rare in his 34 years of service as it would be very costly for the airline to do so, and thus, the replacement would be done only when it was absolutely necessary. The airline provided us with overnight accommodation and meals in Japan and tried to arrange replacement flights for us on the following day.

Initially, I felt a bit lost as this was my first time encountering a flight cancellation. Furthermore, around the same time, the news also reported that strong winds were brewing in the vicinity of Japan. I grew concerned that I might be grounded in Japan and would not be able to reach New York in time for the conference. Yet, at the same time, I thanked God that I did not board the plane that had a technical issue! With a peace of mind that God is watching over me, I stayed over in Japan for a night.

The next morning, I immediately called the airline to book another flight to New York. Although the lady on the phone mentioned that flights to the States were almost fully booked, I managed to book a flight to New York via Los Angeles (LA) on the same day. Furthermore, I got a free upgrade to my preferred airline! It was God’s blessing in disguise.

At LA, while I thought that I could fly to New York smoothly, I was shocked to find out that my phone booking for the flight was not done properly and the boarding pass could not be printed. The airline did not resolve the problem in time to issue me a boarding pass, and as a result, I missed my flight again! They later arranged for me to board another flight on the same day and gave me the only available seat in the First Class cabin, which I took for the first time in my life!

Finally, with God’s protection and favour, I reached my destination and attended the conference as scheduled.

Then on 11 September, I was scheduled to fly back to Singapore via Hong Kong on the same airline that was hijacked in 2001. Despite the coincidence, I put my trust in the Lord and prayed for divine protection.

Interestingly, just before boarding the plane towards Hong Kong, the airline crew announced that some of the seats had to be reshuffled as the plane had too many empty seats and they needed to redistribute the weight onboard. This caused a slight commotion among passengers, delaying the take–off for more than an hour.

Although I had only more than an hour to transit in Hong Kong, I did not panic about missing my connecting flight home as I knew that God would watch over me just like before.

In the end, although I was already mentally prepared to stay over in Hong Kong, I was pleased to know that the plane waited for us even though we reached Hong Kong later than scheduled. I also managed to come back to Singapore safely.

Pastor Prince, thank you very much for your ministry and your expounding on the Scriptures, especially on Psalm 91! All praises to the Lord!

Saved from an Ailing Company, and Experienced Growth in the Year of Greater Glory

During the first Sunday service of 2014, Pastor Prince preached a powerful message on how 2014 would be a year of greater glory. He explained that while there might be chaos and instability, or “deep darkness”, in the world, God’s children could take heart because His light and glory would be seen among them. He also explained that God’s children might be placed outside their comfort zones, but He would be with them and help them to grow.

Two weeks after that, a career opportunity came through a friend. I did not apply for it at all. At that time, I was prospering in my workplace, and could have been promoted as the department head. On the other hand, the scope of the new job opportunity was totally different from my job then. I did not understand why the Lord prompted me to leave my job at that time to take up the new position. In the end, I decided to trust the Lord and take up the challenge.

The first three months of my new career were not easy for me. There was so much to handle: from the technical part of the job to managing people and clients. However, the good news was that I was now free on Sundays to serve the Lord in our children’s ministry, Rock Kidz. It was my great desire to serve Him and to inspire our next generation by revealing Christ to them.

I have been in my new job for eight months now, and whenever I faced challenges at work, I would still ask the Lord why He placed me in this small company. I did not know the answer until I met up with my ex-colleagues recently. I was shocked to discover that my previous company had not been doing well and the boss had sold the company to someone else.

It is obvious to me now that the Lord had saved me from a “sinking ship” when He prompted me to leave that company. I am so thankful that my Lord Jesus Christ is always there for me and He never forsakes me. Hallelujah!

Truly, 2014 has been a year of greater glory. I have grown so much spiritually and emotionally. It was only possible when I trusted the Lord and allowed Him to stretch me beyond my ability. To the Lord be the glory and thank you Pastor Prince for preaching a powerful message on the year of greater glory!

Open Doors in Career

After I graduated from university in 2012, I got into a position in the education sector. Back then, I felt it was what I should be doing, since the nature of my work was closely related to my course of study in school. Little did I know that I would experience much difficulty in my work and I left the job after one year.

At the start of 2014, I was without a job and had no plans for my future. I was thoroughly lost as to what my next step should be. I spent much time moping, without any direction in life. To make matters worse, my relationship with my parents became very strained as a result of my unemployment.

The problem was, I didn’t even know what jobs to apply for. I lacked experience and I was not sure who I was, and what I was good at.

Throughout this time, I continued to attend services at New Creation Church, and was constantly reminded that 2014 is the year of greater glory. Attending services always uplifted my spirit! It made a huge difference as I often felt lousy or shame during that time.

As I had the time to spare, I also began to serve in church. It continued to be a very enriching experience for me to be surrounded by fellow brothers- and sisters-in-Christ who were always encouraging one another during challenges and difficult times. I also chose to rest in Jesus for my restoration, and for a future that was going to be greatly blessed.

In mid-2014, I got to know about a part-time administrative job through a friend, which I accepted without much thought. Initially, I was given a salary that was way below the industry baselines for graduates.

As I was just starting out, I decided not to stress myself over anything at work but to simply do my job and what was required of me. I also started partaking of the Holy Communion every day, and confessing that I have the wisdom and favour to do all things through Jesus Christ.

After two months, I learnt that the management was very pleased with my performance at work. And I was offered a full-time executive position!

First, there was a huge reduction in the probation period compared to the usual terms of employment. Then, there was a 30 per cent salary increase from my previous job, which I felt was rare, considering the fact that I lacked experience and knowledge in that field. Not only so, I was also given ample responsibilities and opportunities which allowed me to learn and grow in my field. It was amazing!

As I looked back on this, I knew it couldn’t have been through my own effort. I had applied for less than five jobs in the year prior to my current employment. It truly had to be the favour of the Lord that made all these possible.

I want to give thanks to Daddy God for blessing my finances and for opening doors in my career! Indeed, 2014 was a year of greater glory for me!

Got Dream Job by Resting In God

At the beginning of the year, Pastor Prince said that 2014 would be a year of greater glory. But he also said that we would be exposed to things that we were weak in, and be placed in situations where we were not comfortable with and in the process, learn to rely on God completely, and see that He is greater than what we could think of. I experienced exactly that.

I was a proud person and I believed in myself. Although I always thanked God for blessing me and making everything easy for me in life, a part of me believed that my hard work, luck and intelligence all contributed to the success I had been enjoying.

I knew it was a wrong belief, but I never truly understood what it meant to rely on God’s strength completely. One day, I was looking for a new job with a better career progression and salary increase.

There was this particular company, the top giant company in the industry, which I always wanted to work for but never believed that I could be good enough to get in. In reality, everyone knew how hard it was to get into this company.

In one of the services in church, I told the Lord I would apply for this company the next time I see a job opening there. A few weeks later, a friend who was working there posted a job vacancy on social media. I was stunned because I thought it was a coincidence.

I mentioned before that I was a proud person. I had almost never asked anyone for help because I was just too proud for it. So at first, I was reluctant to contact this friend of mine to apply for the job, especially when we were just acquaintance. But since I told God that I would do it, I dropped this person a message and applied for the job.

I had my first interview with Human Resource. However, the interview didn’t go well and I was told that my experience was not right for the position. I was disappointed. But in the end, I thanked God that at least the recruiter was honest enough not to give me any false hope.

I went on with my life with no expectations and even forgot about my job application. But two weeks after, I got a phone call from another Human Resource personnel from the company saying that she wanted to schedule an interview with me for another position. I was hyped up! Yes, the first Human Resource personnel who contacted me did say that he would pass my résumé to other teams to see if anyone was interested. But back then I thought he was just rejecting me politely. This must be a miracle from God!

I went for the interview a few days after and it was a disaster! There were a lot of questions that I couldn’t answer. But anyway, it was really an interesting experience for me and every step of the way I kept thanking God for this wonderful experience.

The next day, I got a call saying that I was through to the next round. This was again another miracle because I really didn’t do well during the interview.

This continued for another five times. After each interview, I thought I had ruined my chances and that I was not good enough, and there was no way I could make it to the next round.

But every time, I was also reminded that it was not because of me that I got through. It wasn’t my strength, my capability and my intelligence but it was God who made everything possible. I only realised this during the 4th interview and since then, my mindset had completely changed. From that round onwards, I went to the interviews relying only on God. Finally, I understood that we were all nothing without God.

But the blessing did not end there. When I was one step away from being hired, I told God that though I would already be happy to get a position, it would be great if I could get a 10 per cent pay increase.

When they asked about my previous salary, I thought of exaggerating a bit, adding some bonus here and there to make it sound big so that their offer would be even bigger. But I kept reminding myself that I would rely on God for my blessings and I need not exaggerate if I truly believed in Him.

In the end, not only did God give me the job of my dream, but He also gave me a 25 per cent increase in salary! It was truly a blessing! Our God is a God who is able and willing to give us much more than what we could ask for or think of! (Ephesians 3:20)

To God be all the glory!

Chinese Results Improved by Trusting Jesus

I am an eight-year-old boy writing this testimony to thank Jesus for helping me improve in my Chinese.

My Chinese has always not been very good. Just before my exam I even scored 6 out of 20 for one of my Chinese revision tests. My parents were very worried but they still told me not to give up and do my best.

Since Primary One, I already did not like the language. Sometimes I didn’t even know what my Chinese teacher was talking about. I felt very frustrated but I kept studying very hard.

At Rock Kidz, I often heard about Jesus and how He helped other children in their work. There was this boy who applied anointing oil on one of his exam papers and prayed. In the end, he got full marks! When I heard it, I was very excited and shared it with my parents.

Now, I myself have my own testimony to share because this year, before my Chinese exam I prayed and believed that Jesus would help me with my exam.

I also put some anointing oil on my paper. Some of my friends saw me doing it and were very puzzled. Thank God, my teacher didn’t see it. So, I just smiled, prayed and surrendered the paper to Jesus.

To my sweet surprise, two days after my exam, my Chinese teacher announced that I got Band 1 for Chinese! I scored 48 out of 60 for the paper!

Yay! I could not believe my ears. I was overjoyed. I couldn’t wait to tell my parents and give thanks to God. I knew Jesus had helped and guided me through my Chinese exam paper. Praise Jesus! I like to also thank my Rock Kidz teacher for giving me the anointing oil.

Open Door to a Better-Paying Job

At the end of December 2012, I was at the peak of my career. I was earning a substantial amount and held a critical position in my company. My customers liked me very much and I had influence over hundreds of employees all over Asia.

However, just when I thought I was at my best days, I felt God telling me that He would shut the door and open a new one for me. I was baffled as I was very comfortable where I was.

One week before the end of March 2013, my boss told me that I had to leave due to a global reorganisation. I was given only one month’s notice without any compensation.

This sudden news, did not catch me by surprise because God had prepared me for a closed door. Hence, even though I had no job offer, I wasn’t worried or fearful. Deep in my heart, I knew God would open a new door.

I didn’t understand God’s plan for me, but I had to trust Him. I did not know when I would get a new job and if I had enough to provide for my son who was in university. However, throughout the period, God gave me His peace and kept me calm.

After my last day with the company, I began looking for job openings. Though I didn’t see any job that matched my area of profession, God’s peace was with me. Somehow, I knew that God had a good plan for me.

After two weeks of job search, my ex-customer’s regional manager called me. He asked if I was interested to take on a regional position in their company. This was very similar to what I did in past. Suddenly, I saw God’s plan for me!

In less than four weeks, I started my new job! This time round, I no longer had to work long hours but strictly five days a week.

My current pay package is even better than my previous job. I have full autonomy, and I am managing hundreds of employees all over Asia. On top of that, I am now managing my vendor which is my ex-company.

His way is truly not our way! For me to get this job is a miracle!

I have learnt that even when we don’t understand God’s instructions, all we need to do is obey and take a bold step of faith. God Almighty is in control and He will make all things work for our good!

Praise Jesus for His great sacrifice that allows us to enjoy all His unmerited favour and blessings!

First-Class Honours by Enjoying Jesus

I am an international student from Thailand. In 2010, I came to Singapore to study a diploma course in Mass Communication. During that time, I was stressed out trying to cope with the new environment and language.

However, things changed when a Thai friend of mine invited me to New Creation Church. I began to understand more about God’s grace and found friends from the youth ministry whom I could connect with.

Though school was not easy, I held on to God’s promises that His grace is sufficient for me and His strength is made perfect in weakness. (2 Corinthians 12:9)

I decided to put on God’s perspective and trusted that everything will work out for good. I then graduated with a distinction for my advanced diploma and God continued to bless me with an open door to further my studies in the United Kingdom.

The course was intensive and I had regular coursework to submit during the four months. In the last week, I had two assignments due but the internet connection in my room was not working.

So, I sat in the library and listened to worship songs. There and then, I felt the presence of Jesus cheering me on to complete the projects.

A month later, I was home for the holidays and the results were out. I was amazed that I got a first-class honours degree! On top of that, I was awarded the best overall performance. 

I know that these good things happen to me not by my own strength. I have the best invisible friend, Jesus, who keeps supporting me in everything that I do. He is always with me everywhere I go. All glory to Christ alone!

Unmerited Favour at Work

A few weeks before Marked Camp 2013, I made a huge mistake and lost a clientwhich resulted in a four-figure revenue loss to the company.

In the following week, I received a call from a client, whom we lost three years ago,to submit a quote to them. I was entrusted with this task and the entire process of preparing and presenting the quote, was filled with undeserved favour.

After the presentation, I left for Marked Camp. On the 3rd day of the camp, I received a message from my director informing me that out of the 14 companies vying for the contract, our company was the one selected for the job! The awarded value from this deal was five times more than what I had lost due to my mistake earlier.

Furthermore, God also brought to my remembrance that three years ago, I had asked Him to bring back this very client who left us after servicing them for seven years.  Though I had long forgotten about it, Jesus is faithful to remember and make it come to pass three years later!

For the mistake made earlier, my boss also comforted me by assuring me that when one door closes, another opens. I was amazed! God used my boss, who is a non- believer, to remind me that this is still the year of open doors and indeed another door of restoration has been opened!

Jesus is indeed faithful to restore exceedingly and abundantly everything that was lost. It was all simply by His underserved, unmerited and unearned favour to open His good treasure and bless all the work of our hands. Praise the Lord!

Open Door to a New Career

I started working in the public sector during the early part of my career, and stayed on for around 15 years. At one point in time, I regretted making the switch as my skills and experience had made it difficult for me to move back into the private sector. 

Towards the end of 2012, I got quite disappointed with my previous job as I wasn’t making any advancements in my career. By then, I was already past 40 and in natural terms, to do a career switch was virtually impossible. Nonetheless, I decided to go on a job search but somehow things did not work out.

Early in the year 2013, Pastor Prince preached a sermon on the Key of David and how Jesus would open doors on our behalf. I immediately claimed the promise and also prayed to find a job in the private sector that I would be passionate about.

At the beginning, I received a few phone calls to go for interviews, so I thought God was opening doors for me. However, one after another, I was rejected.

I continued my job search but the doors kept closing. 

My morale sank lower with each rejection. My countenance also grew darker until the disappointments overwhelmed me.  It was at that point when I came to the end of myself, and totally trusted in God and His grace for me. 

Almost four months later, I received a call to attend an interview for a senior position which I had no experience in.  Honestly speaking, I had forgotten about it as I didn't think I stood much chance.  

Before the interview, I just prayed that if that was the job for me, God would open the door. It would all be by His grace and none by my own qualifications or effort.  This gave me the peace to prepare for the interview with almost no stress at all.

I was offered the job a week later!  This was a miracle as the position is at least two grades higher than my previous job and would require 15 years of experience in the industry to reach that level.

To top it all, I was offered a 40% increase in my salary. When I researched more about the job, I realised that my business unit was formed only at the end of 2012 when I started praying for a new job.  God had been working behind the scenes, when I thought that everything was working against me! 

In the past, I always thought there was little value in what I used to do. However, when I learned that my new company hired me because of the experience I had, I felt so loved knowing that God created this position just for me! 

I am filled with awe and deeply touched by the extent of His grace and goodness to me.  My career was in ruins, but He has brought it back to life!  I thank God that He had closed all the doors which were not good for me, and opened the right one at the right time when I was best able to receive from Him.  Praise Jesus for His wonderful grace for me, for He is a good God, and His grace endures forever!

Unmerited Favour in Securing a Full-Time Job

I served time in prison more than a decade ago. In 2012, I started working as a temporary staff at a company, with no guarantee of a full-time job offer at the end of my six-month contract.

In January this year, I started attending New Creation Church and listening to the message of grace every day. I felt so much peace listening to what Jesus had already accomplished for me. Recently, my contract ended, and I was favoured to be considered for a full-time position. However, due to my past, I was concerned that I might not be hired. I prayed to Jesus for favour believing that it was not by my works, but His finished work that had made me righteous.

In the process of filing for my application to work full-time, the legal and staffing departments rejected me on the grounds that I had served time in prison. But I continued listening to your messages and declaring God’s unmerited favour over my life as I waited for the result.

I was granted a full-time position on condition that there would be a 12-month probation which means that I won’t be able to receive any bonuses during this time. However, once the probation is over, I will still be entitled to the bonuses! In addition, my new salary was 23 per cent higher than my last drawn pay! Praise the Lord! Nothing was lost, and only more to gain. Jesus truly does not remember my messy past and failures, but pours out His love unconditionally! Amen.

Open Door to Scholarship

When Pastor Prince declared 2013 to be a year of open doors, I knew I would see more of God working on my behalf this year.

I had just finished my GCE A-Levels and was applying to go into university. I had applications forms to submit and interviews to attend. I even applied for a scholarship half-hoping I’d get it as the competition was really tough. There were many applicants and looking at their glowing CCA records and CIP hours, I paled in comparison.

After I submitted my application, I got very nervous because only shortlisted candidates would be granted an interview. Finally, after about a month, they got back to me on an interview date, which happened to be just after a family trip planned some time ago. This meant that I would not have sufficient time to prepare or read up for the interview and would likely "lose out" to the other candidates.

However, I decided to go ahead with the trip and enjoy myself since it's all in God's hands and I had nothing to worry about. In fact, I was quite happy to be caught in this situation because if I had been in Singapore, I would prepare myself to impress the interviewers and end up trusting in my self-efforts. Since I was away, there was nothing I could do but surrender to God and let Him to do everything for me!

When I got back to Singapore after my trip, I had only eight hours to print some last-minute documents before my interview. Though I barely had enough rest, I felt highly energised.

On the way to the venue, I confessed God's favour and that the interview would be a breeze for me.

Unfortunately, it was not so.

I had to go through a two-hour interview with two segments to it. The first segment was a General Knowledge test and I was stumped right at the beginning. I guessed my way through the test and at the end, I knew I couldn't have made it.

The second segment was a group interview. We were given a case scenario and had to come up with solutions to solve the problem. Halfway through, I wanted to walk out of the room because I was overwhelmed by the case materials presented to us. The graphs, charts, numbers and indexes left me totally clueless! I decided to trust God and went ahead with the rest of the interview.

During my presentation, I fumbled here and there. My hands were shaking and I did not know what I was talking about. I even made a spelling error and at the end of the interview, I was certain I blew it.

Nonetheless, I hoped that God could perform a miracle for me.

Nearly two weeks went by but there was no news. Knowing that selected scholars would be notified in two weeks’ time, I was disappointed. But I still thanked God for being there for me, and that He had greater plans for me regardless of the outcome.

So I went on with life and two weeks later, I received an email stating that I had received the scholarship!

I was so shocked and stunned by the goodness of God as I knew this could never be possible based on my performance! Indeed, when God opens a door, no man can shut and when God shuts a door, no man can open.

On top of the scholarship, I also received a double degree offer even though I did not go down for another interview! This is truly His awesome favour!  

Now, I am excited to see what other doors of opportunities He will open for me. Surely, life isn't daunting at all when we have Jesus!

Favour and Harvest at Work

Almost two years ago, the Lord opened a door and blessed me with my current job. I didn’t even need to attend an interview as my former boss had invited me to come on board. Since I started, I faced all sorts of work issues. The volume of work was off the scale and as in any company, there were difficult and demanding people to deal with.

I have been gleaning from Pastor Prince’s ministry since 2008. Through my feeding on the Word, and from Pastor Prince’s teachings, I learnt to be diligent to enter into the Lord’s rest. I prayed that the various work issues that came against me would peacefully be resolved to my benefit. I confessed Hebrews 13:6 and 2 Samuel 22:49 that the Lord is my helper and would deliver me.

I know my hands are not big enough to handle everything, but through Abba's grace, I have seen each issue and problem miraculously resolved and settled. I also found favour with my bosses and colleagues. 

Late last year in 2012, the “storms” around me were particularly heavy and I had to really rest in Jesus just to get to work on a daily basis. I was tempted to look for another job and one day, I found it a struggle to go back to my office. I asked the Lord for guidance and heard Him assuring me to stay and enjoy my harvest. I was comforted by this and continued to praise Jesus.

At the end of February 2013, I had my annual performance appraisal. In my company, a rating of 3/5 is the norm. To get a 4/5, your boss must really fight for you and write a whole bunch of justifications. But praise Jesus! My boss told me I received a 5/5 rating! I have never heard of this before in my company or any of the previous companies I had worked for. My boss said that given the large volume of work on my plate, he could not expect me to have handled things any better and told me that this rating would likely mean a 150 per cent bonus. 

Five is the number of grace in the Bible and to me, 5/5 is grace upon grace. My loving Father’s grace prevailed when I was weak, and Jesus' strength came fully upon me. Praise Abba for His harvest and for touching my boss' heart such that he was willing to stick his neck out for me!

Throughout the storms and issues at work which tried to steal my rest, I was able to stay in shalom peace and praise Jesus. I witnessed His protection, favour, kindness, love and blessings in the face of the enemy's attacks. Truly, He prepared a table for me in the presence of my enemies. I believe that I will see more open doors leading to green pastures in 2013, the year of the key of David!

Open Door to Dream Job

I had been working for almost 20 years, holding senior leadership positions in some global technological companies in the last six years. Due to global restructuring, I was given a golden handshake (severance package) in September 2012 and had been on the lookout for my next career. Despite reaching out to many head-hunters, there had only been a few opportunities that surfaced.

In December 2012, right after I came back from our church’s Israel trip, I had two opportunities but somehow, the doors were closed, I could not understand why. I felt down and discouraged. I held on to the word for our church that God would close doors that are not good for us and He would open doors that are best for us and what He opens, no man can shut.

In January 2013, the very same company that had closed its door of opportunity, came back to me and asked if I was interested in another role. Not only was I given a more senior role, but the company’s profile and the larger regional exposure were what I’d wanted all my life.

The chemistry with my immediate boss was very good. My new package was also 50 per cent more than the earlier opportunities that the Lord had closed. I can only look up to Jesus and know that He has opened this door of opportunity. Looking back, I have learnt to be patient and to wait upon the Lord for His blessings.

I am so thankful to Jesus and hold steadfast to His promise in Jeremiah 29:11. Indeed, He has a plan for all of us, and a plan that will prosper us to give us a future and a hope.

Glory to God. Hallelujah!

Open Door to Choice Course

I have consistently failed my mathematics paper for the past two years. I was terrified of sitting for my O-Level exam, and knew that if I failed, no junior college or polytechnic would accept me.

I studied hard for all my subjects and decided to leave the results in Jesus’ hands. Waiting for my results was hard. The day of the results came and I couldn’t believe it, I had failed my mathematics once again. I was devastated even though I’d done well in other subjects.

My teachers told me that the only way forward was to either further my studies at the Institute of Technical Education, then continue to a polytechnic after two years, or I could re-sit my mathematics paper. I was strongly against both options and really thought Jesus had deserted me. What I really wanted to study was either psychology or a course in early childhood.

The day after I received my results, friends reassured me that I could always go to a private school, but I thought otherwise, thinking that even private schools would require a pass in mathematics. On that same day, I suddenly remembered a friend who is studying a childcare course in a private school and decided to give her a call. To my delight, I realised that I had obtained sufficient grades.

After some research, I found out that I could complete the course and get my diploma in two years (compared to three years in a polytechnic), and the school also offered a Bachelor’s and Master’s Degree programme. I was overjoyed and after attending their open house with my parents, I registered for the course right away.

I remembered Pastor Prince had preached on Vision Sunday that 2013 would be a year of open and shut doors, and realised Jesus had shut a door in my life for a reason and had opened a better one for me. I was no longer angry or disappointed when I realised that everything happens for a reason and Jesus knows what’s best for me.

I attended the interview and got a call the next day informing me that I had passed and was accepted for the course. I will start school in April 2013, and I’m looking forward to what Jesus has in store for me.

Only God Can Re-open a Closed Door

I’m a 26-year-old student who recently graduated from a local film school. I wasn’t sure what to do, but documentary filmmaking has a special place in my heart.

On 9 November 2012, I received a call inviting me to participate in a filmmaking competition. Unsure of the company’s background, I told the caller I would get back to him. It was only nine days later that I remembered that call and read the email that was sent to me earlier.

I found out that the email was from a leading independent entertainment company in Hollywood, founded by a legendary producer. It was an invitation to participate in an international television series featuring documentary filmmakers from diverse backgrounds such as the Middle East, India and Singapore. The winning documentary would be screened at the United Nations and receive special recognition during one of the most prestigious film festivals in the world. 

As soon as I woke up the next day, I contacted the representative telling him I was interested. Unfortunately, he told me submissions had closed and “would call me back if the entries were not good enough”. I was extremely disappointed. The title of the email invite was “Chance of a lifetime” and I thought I’d blown it.

Two weeks later, I received another email from the representative asking if I was still keen. He said he’d seen one of the documentaries I’d directed whilst looking through the entries and was still in the process of selecting the top four candidates from Singapore. 

I was on cloud nine! Yet, I was puzzled. I had not submitted anything nor mentioned anything about my work. This did not make any sense to me. But no matter what, I knew that the hand of God was in this, and the Lord was re-opening a closed door for me.

The following Sunday was Vision Sunday where Pastor Prince shared the theme for 2013. In his message, he repeatedly mentioned that 2013 was going to be a year of open doors, and whatever doors God opens, NO ONE can shut! 

On 8 January 2013, I was officially selected as one of the four candidates to represent Singapore in this international ground-breaking documentary series.

People in the world often say that you only have ONE shot in life. When you missed your chance, that’s it. But I’ve learnt that the door that our God opens, no one can shut, not even when you’ve made a mistake. And not even when it’s called the “Chance of a lifetime”. All praise and glory to Jesus!

Praise the Lord for He Is Good!

My family and I have been living overseas for the past five years. We planned our holiday in Singapore during the festive season not knowing that NCC’s first service at The Star Performing Arts Centre would fall on Christmas week. We were absolutely blessed to be part of the whole celebration.

During the Christmas service, Pastor Prince asked the congregation to bring three prayer requests along to the last service for 2012.  My husband and I attended the service the following week where I brought my three prayer requests to the Lord and my first was for good health for my family.

New Year’s Day was the last day of our holiday in Singapore before our return to Japan. I woke up feeling nauseous with stomach cramps and pain. I did not know how I got the symptoms and was very disappointed. I had requested for good health and was very sick on the first day of the year!

As we were due to fly that very night, I was concerned how I would be able to cope during the long flight. Then, I remembered Pastor Prince talking about the story of Leah and how she was focusing on herself.  Through his preaching, Pastor Prince encouraged us to look to the Lord instead of looking to ourselves.

Throughout the day, my symptoms continued and I even started to feel my body temperature rising, but as long as the symptoms continued, I kept whispering to myself, “Praise the Lord for He is good.”

Friends from NCC came to see off us at the airport and they prayed for us. Shortly after we entered the departure gate, I suddenly realised I had no more nausea, stomach cramps or pain. In fact, I had a very good flight back to Japan that night.

Praise the Lord for He is good! I did absolutely nothing. JESUS is my healer.

I continue to believe that Jesus will grant my three prayer requests for 2013.

Top of The Class Thanks to Jesus!

When I got my Primary School Leaving Examination Certificate, I was so disappointed with myself because I knew I could do better. I had also disappointed my family and friends. My mother scolded me profusely and told me she was worried that I wouldn’t get into the Express stream.

Before all this, I had applied for Direct School Admission and received a confirmed offer from a secondary school. Although I would still be admitted into the school, there was a high possibility that I would go into the Normal (Academic) stream.

When school started, I did not have many friends as none of my close friends were in the same school. Then, through the chapel service in school, I learnt about an after school programme that allows us to fellowship with other pupils. 

Soon, I started to grow closer to God and looked forward to going to the chapel service and fellowship; it was then that I realised that I had been oblivious to my Saviour. His hands were there to pick me up when I was down and He was there to guide me through my darkest valleys. I had not been attending services in New Creation Church (NCC) for many months but after that, I felt led by the Lord to attend service in NCC again.

From then on, my relationship with friends and family members got better and my studies also improved. After receiving the gift of tongues, I was able to conquer every fear I faced, knowing that the Lord is with me.

During the year-end examinations, I fell ill and had to miss three papers. I felt really upset with myself because I thought I had blown my chances of getting into the Express stream.

One week later, Pastor Daniel preached during the DARE service and shared how God has a good plan for us to give us a future and hope. I knew that this was no coincidence and that God had placed the words in Pastor Daniel’s mouth to speak to me.

When I received my results, I was beaming with joy. Not only did I get into the Express stream, I topped the class! I knew it was God who did this. All glory to Him!

2012 was truly a year of unceasing fruitfulness!

Jesus Found Me a Job!

In the beginning of 2012, Pastor Prince shared how this year would be a year of “unceasing fruitfulness”. This was a timely message for a fresh graduate like me!

For the past few months, my classmates and peers have been scrambling to find jobs and have been busy going for job interviews. Some of them even found jobs ahead of graduation!

Despite my peers and lecturers urging me to send job applications early, I felt a prompting in my spirit to concentrate on the remaining months of my studies. I decided to wait till my examination period was over before applying for any jobs. I also told myself that the Lord would provide a job that He deemed suitable for me.

The theme verse of the year also reaffirmed me that I did not have to worry about employment despite the “drought” in the job market. I knew that I didn’t have to worry as my Abba is a big God who has an unlimited abundance of supply for me!

One day, I was surfing the Internet and decided to look up various companies that I was interested in. However, none of them advertised any job openings on their websites.

Nevertheless, I decided to email one of the companies that I had a “good feeling” about and asked for potential job openings. After that, I prayed and asked God to open the one single door that He would want me to go through, and to close all other doors for me.

The very next day, I received an email reply thanking me for my email, and telling me that they were indeed looking for new staff. On my final day of examinations, I received a message from the company’s recruitment manager who scheduled an interview with me!

Despite the fact that it was the first job interview I had ever sat for, I felt at peace. Before the interview, I meditated and confessed God’s Word and declared favour in the sight of my interviewers. Amazingly, the company made me a job offer right on the spot! They even agreed to the salary that I asked for, though I had little relevant work experience.

The final week of my student life had not even ended, but God had already “settled” everything for me! Things went on so well and so smoothly that I know that it can be no one but God’s doing. I am so overwhelmed by how amazing He is! Thank You, Daddy God, for everything! And thank you, Pastor Prince, for reminding us about God’s love!

Favour and Increase at Work!

In the beginning of 2011, Pastor Prince shared that 2011 would be our best year ever. He even quoted God’s Word in Psalm 65:11, “You crown the year with goodness and Your paths drip with abundance”. Indeed, my year was crowned with His goodness and my paths drip with abundance!

In 2010, the company I was working with faced financial difficulties and there was a possibility that it will close down. Due to downsizing, my workload increased and I was very depressed. Everyone around me had also left with a job while I couldn’t find one!

Whenever I was down, I would listen to sermons and sing Christian songs. God kept reminding me to be joyful, to trust in Him, and to let go and let Him take care of my situation. In February 2011, God gave me a new position. Although I asked for a 10 per cent increase, my boss gave me a 20 per cent increase! Within a year, my salary increased over 36 per cent and I have shorter working hours too!

By the grace of God, He also gave me favour with people in my new job. Within my first two months, I sprained my ankle and had to be absent for a week. When I returned to work, my boss insisted that I take a taxi (on the company’s account) to and from work until I fully recovered.

What’s more, I was still on probation and medical leave should have been unpaid leave. However, my boss asked the Human Resource department not to deduct my salary for my absence but to increase my annual leave from 14 to 20 days instead! Not only that, I was “upgraded” to a higher insurance plan that covers my child as well!

Truly, it is God who gave me wisdom and blessed everything I laid my hands on! I just can’t wait to go back to church every Sunday to learn more about Jesus. Thank you Pastor Prince! The Holy Spirit transforms me from glory to glory and it’s all because of God’s grace! All glory and honour to our Lord Jesus Christ!

“Applauded” for Mistake

Last week, I made a mistake at work which could adversely affect my bosses at work. Despite the mess that I had made, Daddy God kept putting Romans 8:28 in my heart. The Lord assured me that He would make even my “silliest mistakes” prosper and cause all things to work together for good.

Thankfully, the mistake was resolved by the end of the week. By God’s grace, my boss even sent me an “Applause” — an official form of recognition in my workplace. I couldn't believe my eyes! This was the very first “Applause” I have ever received from my boss, and I was being recognised for my courage in facing the music and for resolving the problem.

How awesome is our God? It can only be Daddy God’s amazing grace for me to receive such an honour from my boss in spite of my mistake!

This incident reminded of Genesis 39 where the Lord made “all” that Joseph did to prosper in his hand. And I believe “all” must have included his mistakes too! Truly, every trial is an opportunity to see Jesus in a fresh and new way!

I can't thank Pastor Prince enough for blessing me with the wonderful gospel of Jesus. Every Sunday, I am constantly reminded of His unceasing grace and never-ending love for me. Thank you, pastor!

Blessed and Restful At Work

Prior to the 2009 world economic downturn, the Lord opened a door for me to work in a US company. Week after week, I’d apply anointing oil on my office door and believe in Jesus’ favour during the economic downturn. During a time when many people lost their jobs, I was not affected at all.

By God’s grace, we produced record-breaking profits over two consecutive years. The company did better than before and the profits exceeded the cumulative profits made between 2002 and 2009! Praise the Lord!

As my workload increased, I found myself travelling a lot and was unable to attend church services. I was working “24/7” and felt tensed and stressed all the time. I was also relatively new in the company and was caught up in office politics. My colleagues received big bonuses and were favoured by the bosses while I was often “left out”.

One day, my boss turned hostile towards me after listening to gossip that someone had made about me. The company took away my subordinates and I was forced to take up a performance improvement plan. I was very down and returned to church one month later.

By God’s grace, I learnt to expect good even in the midst of trouble. Pastor Prince’s teachings to rest in the Lord encouraged me and I believed that He would resolve my situation. Within days, a friend recommended me a new position in another company. I went for the interview and was offered a job.

I thank Jesus that I am now in a company that pays me twice the salary with little travelling and less stress. My colleagues are professional, and my new boss is very understanding and helpful. I now have more time to attend church services, enjoy care group sessions, and serve in church! I thank Jesus for His goodness and for teaching me to trust and rest in His faithfulness. Thank You!

A Double-Fold Blessing in Her Career

I had my baby in September 2008 and made the decision to take care of him at home. I have always enjoyed writing so I decided to freelance from home.

Some time ago, I was given the opportunity to do a writing job. It was a pretty large order with a one-month time frame. A few of my friends who knew about this advised me to take it up because the pay was a good four-figure sum. However, I felt that it was not right for me so I turned it down.

Soon after, I was given the opportunity to meet some clients who asked me if I would be available to take up another assignment. The pay they offered me was more than double of the job that I had turned down previously. It was a five-figure sum! Moreover, the deadline was comfortable and I could spend more time with my son in the day and work on the assignment while he is sleeping. God is so good! All glory to Him!

Turned to God and Career Turned Around

Six months ago, I attended New Creation Church for the first time. Back then, I was tired and weary from life’s struggles. My boyfriend of five years had left me for another girl. After graduation, I had been in and out of two jobs. While I would start each job with much enthusiasm, I always ended up disappointed and disillusioned. I stopped turning to God because I felt like I had failed Him as a youth leader and a Christian whose life is not glorious.

But the moment I stepped into the Rock Auditorium, I felt a warm and uplifting sensation inside me. At that service, Pastor Prince shared about the unconditional love of Jesus despite our failures and imperfections. When I heard that, I started crying and could not stop. As Pastor Prince led the congregation in a prayer, I whispered in my heart, asking God to help me believe that His love for me is truly unconditional. As I stepped out of the service that day, I felt an unexplainable peace in my heart.

After that, I took a one-week trip to Perth, bringing along Pastor Prince’s Unmerited Favor book. I read the book every day and my emotional pain was replaced by love, peace and joy. By the time I returned to Singapore, I was excited to discover what God had in store for me.

On my day of return, I received a job offer from a global company. What was even more amazing was that four other global companies were also calling me up for interviews!

I accepted the first offer I received. When I started on my new job, there was an adjustment period. But this time round, enlightened by Pastor Prince's Unmerited Favor book, I would make it a point to spend time with God and declare good things before I step into the office. Even if I had made mistakes at work or worked till very late the night before, I would still go to work every morning with a confident expectation of good.

Soon, I was confirmed as a permanent staff with a pay higher than my previous jobs. At the age of 26, I was also featured in a local newspaper article spotlighting on new developments in my industry. I know this could only happen because of God’s unmerited favour on me.

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for writing the book Unmerited Favor which changed my life. Praise the Lord that He led me to New Creation Church!

Promotion and Pay Raise Because of God’s Favour

In the past, I always felt that my company was short-changing me in terms of my remuneration. I was the lowest paid in my circle of friends in spite of my experience, technical knowledge and effort I had put in my work. I was despondent, angry and envious of my friends.

Since I joined New Creation Church at the beginning of 2010, I have been blessed tremendously by Pastor Prince’s messages on the gospel of grace. Here, I got to know Jesus and the grace of God more abundantly. I decided to keep looking to God and not men, trusting that He will provide and bless me in abundance.

Then during the next salary revision, I was shocked to find out that I was not only promoted, but I was also given a pay raise of 40 per cent! That is a four-figure jump in my salary! Praise the Lord for His love and grace! I know that I have not done anything to deserve such a pay increment so this was only possible by His grace and unmerited favour on me!

I wish to thank all the pastors at New Creation Church and my friend for bringing me to this church. Praise God for His goodness endures forever!

God’s Favour in Career In Spite Of Economic Crisis

God is good, and with the benefit of hindsight, I have realised how my life has indeed been guided by God, and how everything does work out for the good of those who trust in Him.

I graduated with a law degree from the National University of Singapore in 2008. Before becoming full-fledged lawyers, law graduates have to undergo six months of pupillage in a law firm. The norm is to apply for placement while still in the third year of our studies.

When my friends and I applied for pupillage in 2007, the economy was doing well and most of us were keen to do our pupillage in one of the top four law firms here. I had received offers from one of the top four, as well as a smaller but well-established local law firm. Many students would, without much thought, accept the offer from the top firm because of its prestige and higher pay. However, I was hesitant. My father also encouraged me to pick the firm that I felt most comfortable working in.

Though I did not know it then, God’s hand was already guiding me and I chose to do my pupillage in the corporate department of the smaller firm. When the financial crisis hit, the corporate sector was badly affected, and many of my friends who did their pupillage in the corporate departments of the top firms were not given the opportunity to stay on after their pupillage had ended.

Nevertheless, God’s favour was on me in so many ways. Not only was I offered a permanent position in the smaller firm, but my boss also made me the offer several weeks before my pupillage ended, thus saving me from all that anxiety about my future.

I am very happy where I am, with superiors and colleagues who are kind, friendly and willing to teach. I cannot fully express my amazement that, despite all my unbelief and failings, the Lord still sticks around and continues to plan my future down to a T. I am so grateful to Him!

Received Multiple Career Blessings When She Rested in Him

Having graduated in 2009, I had to find a job amid the global economic meltdown. Almost everyone I spoke to advised me to lower my expectations and accept any reasonable job that came my way. But I kept encouraging myself with one sermon where Pastor Prince mentioned that God does not want to just bless us with a job, but a position in a company that we desire. Hence, I only applied for positions that I was interested in. To cut the story short, I was offered a position with a pay that was above my expectations. And I got the confirmation just in time for graduation!

In my new job, I was placed in a management trainee programme (MTP) with two rounds of postings to different departments. I submitted a list of preferred departments for my first department posting, and got none of my choices. I was a tad disappointed and concerned about being in a department that was not my area of expertise. However, I remembered proclaiming aloud, “Lord, I have no idea why I got into this department, but I know that it’s all in Your perfect plan, and something good is going to come out of this. As for my inexperience in this area of work, Jesus, if You’ve placed me here, I know Your wisdom will cause me to excel in every task that comes my way.” As it turned out, this posting was a blessing in disguise! My colleagues and bosses have been extremely willing and patient enough to show me the ropes, and I also found amazing favour with my superiors.

Barely two months after I started my MTP, my boss told me that he was sending me to the regional office in Kuala Lumpur (KL) for a week as they were shorthanded. I was extremely excited because management trainees don’t usually get to go on overseas business trips. But the Lord had prepared something even better. During a meeting the following week, my boss suddenly announced that he was going to extend my stay in KL to two months instead! I almost fell off my seat. A two-month business trip for a management trainee was an unprecedented arrangement in the company. There’s honestly no way my own efforts could have achieved something like this in a short span of two months.

Jesus really has a way of leaving me speechless when I see His love for me and rest in His peace.

He Depended on God and Won the Project

I’m working in an advertising agency. In August last year, I had to make a business pitch to a conglomerate. Though we were scheduled to present our advertising campaign pitch to the client at 10.30am, we were still working on it that morning.

In the advertising industry, once you’ve missed a pitch presentation, you’re disqualified from pitching for the project. This is to be fair to all the advertising agencies that have struggled to meet the deadline. I was so frustrated because after all those late nights of working on the presentation, it amounted to nothing. Though I did not lose my temper, I believe my staff felt my “silent treatment”.

I told my partner to call the client to inform them that we were going to be late, and that if they could wait for us, we’d greatly appreciate it. I highlighted to my partner to be honest about the reason for our tardiness. I remembered Pastor Prince always said that as long as we honour God in our actions, God will honour our faith in Him and handle the rest.

The client told us that they could only give us a 30-minute grace period. However, we only managed to complete our work at 2.30pm! Although my team and I had worked through sleepless nights, we still missed the presentation deadline! Nonetheless, I told my partner to pack up all the work that we’d completed for the presentation and deliver them to the client. I thought that since we did endeavour to complete it, we might as well let the client have our work — regardless of whether they were going to review it.

This is the first time I’d missed a pitch presentation in my advertising career. A typical pitch expense for advertising agencies would easily have cost up to a five-figure sum. I thank God that this is my own company, and that we can still manage consequences of this magnitude. If I were still working at my previous advertising agencies, I’d be fired on the spot. That night, I didn’t sleep well. I felt extremely condemned for failing.

Three weeks later, I received a call from the client telling us that my company had been shortlisted for the project! It was unbelievable and it has to be God’s awesome grace! Soon after, we were given an opportunity to present our project within a 30-minute timeframe. However, I exceeded my presentation timing by 15 minutes and was told to quickly wrap it up.

After the presentation, I felt condemned. The next morning, I declared that God’s favour is upon me and I am not condemned by Him in any way. All of a sudden, I felt the heaviness inside me being lifted! I anointed myself with the anointing oil before I left for work, and reminded myself that God is a giver, and not a teaser. God will not allow us to be shortlisted, only to withhold this project from us.

The next day, I received news that the project was awarded to us! The client told me that I was very lucky despite being disqualified in the first round and exceeding my presentation time. He also remarked that I must have prayed very hard to my god. If only he knew that I don’t have to pray hard but simply trust in God’s grace and favour. I believe God will create an opportunity for him to know Him through our business partnership.

Pastor Prince, thank you for showing me that God’s grace and favour is applicable to everyday living — even in the business world.

Restful Increase in Career, Finances and Family

At the beginning of 2009, Pastor Prince shared that it was the dektos year. With that in mind, I started to believe that God would provide the finances and give me time away from work to be able to visit Israel (the holy land that I had a deep desire to visit) at the end of the year. Praise God! Abba provided, and my family and I went to Israel in December 2009! Towards the end of that trip, our tour leader asked if anyone wanted to visit Israel again next year. We proclaimed, “We’ll be back by God’s provision! Amen.”

I used to think that I have to meet a certain performance level to deserve all the good things from God. But now I know that God is eager to give and He does not withhold any of His blessings from His children. God’s blessings continued to pour on me and 2010 is indeed a year of restful increase. God gave me unmerited favour at my workplace with my colleagues and continues to do so. Despite what others of the world are facing like stress, severance etc., I am experiencing the opposite. I received a promotion with pay increment! All praise to my Abba! With the additional finances from God, we can now go to Israel again with more family members this year! Abba truly provides exceedingly above all that we ask!

That is not all. I used to agree with the world that childhood myopia will worsen each year. But once I knew that we are already complete in Christ, I refused to stand in agreement with the world’s opinion on my child’s eyesight. I believed that by His stripes, my child is already healed. So my child and I confessed daily that as Christ is, so are we in this world. At an eye check-up this year, not only did my child have no increase in myopia, but he also had a slight improvement in the left eye! We believe that restoration has started and will continue simply because we are healed by His stripes!

Received Job Offers Ahead of Graduation

I’m a second-year law graduate student. My first degree is in Accountancy and I am reading Law as a second discipline. I started thinking about my job prospects recently as I’d be joining the workforce in 2012. Since I’m trained in both Accountancy and Law, I thought that Corporate Law would be a good area to practise.

Although the economy is still not looking good for corporate lawyers, I’ve had three job offers without having to send out a single application! All these came about during my internship and through casual conversations with the partners of a few law firms.

I remember being skeptical as I listened to all the testimonies read out by Pastor Gabriel and Pastor Lian about people being blessed in their jobs. Somehow I didn’t think that God would bless me. I “tested” Him by sending out an application to a prestigious law firm. Within two days of sending it out, I received a phone call asking me to go down for an interview. When they heard that I was going on holiday the next day, they said that they would accommodate my schedule! Less than a day after my rescheduled interview, they offered me a job! I accepted it and decided to turn down the other job offers. This offer was made to me even before the firm interviewed the rest of the candidates! And most certainly, a job offer two years before I join the workforce is totally unheard of! Praise God!

I’d like to encourage everyone that the same God who has blessed me in my career will bless you the same and even more!

From Failure to Top Student

During my secondary school days, I was extremely notorious and caused many problems to my peers, school and family. I was also involved in gangs and vile activities that harmed both my body and the people who cared about me.

Although I was brought up in a Christian family, I never knew much about Daddy God’s love. I saw God as an angry old man who always wanted to scold me when I did wrong, and thought that I would go to hell each time I sinned. I felt that nobody loved me, and felt sad and lonely all the time.

One day, I got into trouble again and landed in a lock-up prison cell for 12 hours. Even then, I was still extremely rebellious and lied to the officers by giving them false statements to defend my friend. At the eighth hour, I felt an inner prompting to pray for help. While I was freezing on the cold hard floor, I made a decision to go to church after my release and a friend brought me to New Creation Church!

By grace, I learnt that I can never lose my standing before God because Jesus died for me and took my place, my death and my sins on the cross! Praise Jesus! I started feeding on the Word and downloaded Pastor Prince’s sermons into my phone.

I also learnt to trust in the Lord for my GCE "N" level papers and subsequently, my GCE "O" level examinations. I anointed all my exam scripts and would take a Christian friend aside with me to pray and partake of the Holy Communion together before our exams. We made it a point to agree in prayer because when two or three are gathered in Jesus’ name, He is in our midst! (Matthew 18:20)

Miraculously, my "N" level results placed me among the top three students in school! I also obtained 10 points for my "O" levels and I am eligible for many junior colleges!

I am so grateful to Pastor Prince's messages because he revealed the true person of Jesus Christ. I want to give all the glory to Jesus because without Him, I would still have remained as the “scum of society”. Instead, Jesus transformed me from a failure to a top student! Praise the Lord!

Transformed by the Goodness of God

I received Christ in 2005 and was initially passionate about Jesus. However, the church I was in at that time taught a mixture of law and grace and I struggled with it. In the end, I lost the passion and stopped attending church. I joined a gang, was a troublemaker in school and even stole a bicycle. Academically, I was also one of the worst in school.

Then one day, a friend asked me about Jesus. Suddenly, I felt the Lord reminding me of all my experiences with Jesus. I told my friend all about Jesus, baffling even myself! Then, my mother started attending New Creation Church and started calling me “Champion” at home. I started to attend New Creation Church too but could not really understand the preaching. I really enjoyed the praise and worship so I bought a worship album. Three weeks before my final year examinations, I started to have the motivation to study. I played the worship album every night and asked God for wisdom. By God’s grace, I scored 4 A1s for my exams! That was when I knew how much God loves me! He gave me A1s for just three weeks of study!

I started learning more about Jesus as I attended New Creation Church, and I fell deeply in love with Jesus. He is so important in my life! I decided to get out of the gang I was in. I also began to enjoy going to school. Eventually, I jumped 40 level positions in Secondary 3 and 70 level positions in Secondary 4!

For my GCE O-Level examinations, I scored 13 points for my L1R5. I got into a junior college but I did not like the classes so I requested for a transfer to a polytechnic. At that time, applications for transfers were already closed so chances were bleak. I was worried but I kept confessing Romans 8:32: “He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?”

Soon after, I received a letter stating that I was accepted into a polytechnic! But I was offered a course of my second choice. I wrote a letter to the school to request for a transfer to the course I wanted. The administrators told me that my chances were low but I held on to God’s Word. That Sunday in church, I decided to let go of all my worries. I told Daddy God that as long as He is there to make everything enjoyable, it does not matter where I am. I took my eyes off everything and just looked to Jesus.

The next day in school, I received news that I was accepted in the course of my first choice! I was really thrilled. I am really so thankful to God. Daddy God has made me more disciplined, more loving towards people and more generous. It was nothing of me but all of Jesus. I just had to receive and believe. Pastor Prince, you rock! Thank you, church! Thank You, God!

Set Free from Pregnancy Fears

When my husband and I decided to have a baby, I was worried about conceiving. My mother had difficulties conceiving and I feared that it might be hereditary. Despite my fears, I told myself that I am in Christ and would inherit His genes. I went ahead to buy books on baby names and believed God for a baby.

God is faithful and I was pregnant soon after. But that also brought about fears of a difficult pregnancy with symptoms such as morning sickness, water retention, leg cramps and excessive weight gain. But I remembered Pastor Prince’s message about the power of our tongue so I reminded myself to speak good things over my body even though at that time, I was uncertain if it would work. I would speak forth that I would not have water retention, no excessive weight gain and so on in the name of Jesus. And it worked! God kept water retention at bay. I could wear my rings and shoes until I delivered and there was no persistent nausea or food craving. I also did not put on excessive weight from the pregnancy even though I did not diet or exercise. Talk about effortless success! This is only possible in Christ!

Whenever I shared with my care group about my pregnancy, I would tell them that I am expecting a supernatural pregnancy and it came to pass. The day I delivered my baby, I was still shopping for groceries in between contractions. Upon arriving at the hospital, I was warned by nurses that the first birth would take hours. But I told God that I want to be like the Hebrew women, who would give birth even before the midwives arrived. After that, I requested for the nurses to check my progress, the nurses said I was ready to deliver! Praise the Lord!

As we prepare to plan for our next child, I would proclaim and speak forth once again and ask God for bigger blessings because our God is a big God!

Scored Straight 'A's For His A-Level Examinations

When I first joined Arrow, I was just an average year one student scoring mediocre grades of Cs, Ds and Es. At that time, I was not really interested in the things of God despite being in New Creation Church for a long time.

However, when I was in my second year in junior college, I caught a revelation of God’s heart, His love for me and the finished work of Jesus. There was this burst of life and I began to attend Arrow services and care group sessions regularly. There was this unexplainable desire to sit at the feet of Jesus and feed on the Word. I found out that whenever I set aside time for His Word, everything else will just fall into place. Even my studies experienced a supernatural revival! My grades improved with each test and by the time I sat for my preliminary examinations, I was considered one of the better students in class! Whenever I anointed my papers with the anointing oil, I would look upon it as a stamp of approval from Daddy God. And whatever Daddy God approves, it is certainly blessed!

During the final preparation for my A-level examinations, the verse from Deuteronomy 28:13 really encouraged me. It said that the Lord will make me the head and not the tail, and that I will be above only and not beneath. It was the best stress reliever I could have. Also, I am very thankful that God has placed me in such an awesome care group. My care group members gave me great support and encouragement by messaging verses from the Bible to me, constantly reminding me that as God’s children, we never fight for victory, but from victory.

When I received my A-level results, I was blessed beyond what I ever thought was possible, especially knowing the mistakes I had made during the examinations. I scored straight As for my five papers! To be honest, I thought I could only get three As, if I am “lucky”. How awesome that we never have to rely on luck, but instead, on the unmerited favour of God! All glory to Jesus!

New Creation Church’s Top GCE O-Level Scorer with 10 Distinctions

The year of restful increase, 2010 was the year I sat for my O-level examinations. Even though O-level is usually a time when students would be very stressed from studying, I am truly grateful for the messages preached by Pastor Prince, Pastor Benjamin, Pastor Joe and my youth leaders that taught me to put my entire trust in Jesus and His finished work instead of striving and being self-reliant.

Throughout my examination preparation, I was able to study without feeling stressed or worried. I could even study for long periods of time, yet be at rest because I had built my trust solely on Jesus and not on how much I had studied. I thank God for the opportunity to continue serving in my DARE group because every time I served, I would feel refreshed and strengthened. It was definitely supernatural that I was able to continue serving in the midst of the examinations. God was faithful to multiply and restore the time that I had spent serving for my studies.

During my revision, I would pray in the Spirit whenever I felt nervous and I would be filled with a supernatural peace. During the examinations, I would anoint my papers, proclaiming what Jesus had already accomplished on the cross, and that my results were never going to be determined by what I had written but by His unmerited favour. In retrospect, my examinations felt so fulfilling because I did it with Jesus. In fact, I found my O-level examinations to be the most fun and restful examinations I had ever taken, praise God!

I would like to give all glory and honour to God for my results because truly it is He who did it for me. I am amazed by how much favour I had with the examination markers despite the mistakes I had made on my papers. His grace is greater than my errors! When I received my results, I could not help but feel pleasantly surprised. Even though I had a confident expectation of good, I did not expect to attain such excellent results. 10 distinctions with eight A1s and two A2s! Indeed, God exceeds our expectations! To God be the glory and the best is yet to be!

A 26-Point Improvement from His Preliminary Examinations in His GCE O-Level Examinations

I scored 39 points for my preliminary examinations. Some of my teachers had given up on me and some of my classmates joked that I would not make it to a junior college despite being in the Direct School Admission programme.

To be honest, I only started studying hard about a month before my first paper. By then, I was panicking and breaking down because there was really too much information to be memorised in a month. But what made me feel better and less stressed was when I attended church services on Sundays, DARE services and church events such as the live recording of I Sing Hosanna last October.

Two days before my English paper, I felt prompted to ask my English teacher to help me with an essay draft. I believed that the draft would be suitable for all the essay topics that would come out for the examination. Sure enough, the topic I had prepared for came out! I was so amazed and touched by how great God is! From then on, I knew that the O-level examinations was going to be a breeze because God is with me.

Before each paper, I would pray in tongues instead of following my friends who would do some last-minute revision. My friends would tease me, give me weird looks and ask me what I was doing. I just ignored them. In the end, I was able to breeze through every paper without falling asleep! In the past, I could not help but sleep for at least an hour during all my examinations even though I really wanted to work on my papers! Praise God that that did not happen during my O-level examinations!

When I got my results, all my teachers and friends were shocked! I got 13 points, which is a 26-point improvement from my preliminary examinations! Even though I only received Jesus into my life five months ago, I know that God is really good! I could really feel His love for me and I witnessed how He conquered all my giants! For instance, I would usually score an F9 for my Additional Mathematics before the O-level examination. But God gave me the desire to learn this subject, as well as favour with my teacher and friends to help me. In the end, I scored a B3 for my Additional Mathematics in my O-level examination, praise God!

To my friends and teachers who thought I would not be able to score well, they were right! I was not able to do it, but God is!

Passed Her Driving Test with Flying Colours

I decided to learn how to drive because I really wanted to help my husband fetch my children from school and to their tuition classes. He has been very busy since his business picked up. I was scheduled to have my driving test on Tuesday, 30 November 2010.

On the Sunday before my driving test, I bought Pastor Prince’s book, 100 Days Of Favor. I started reading the book and was really impacted by it. I started meditating on the prayer that I am a success because God will never leave nor forsake me.

The next day, I arrived at the driving centre to take my test. At the waiting room, I was the last to be called. I took the opportunity to pray in tongues and meditate on the prayer while waiting.

During the test, my examiner corrected me when I completed the first obstacle at the circuit so that I would not repeat my mistakes. Although there were eight obstacles for me to do, I only had to complete six of them. Even my test route was shortened and I was only on the road for about five minutes before I was asked to drive back to the circuit. The favour of the Lord was on me and the roads were clear. Even the weather was good, even though I checked the weather forecast the night before and a thunderstorm was expected.

In the end, I passed the test with only six demerit points! This would not have been possible without God. I am so blessed and grateful to God. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your book 100 Days Of Favor which really blessed me.

Received a PhD Scholarship in America After Resting in The Lord

I have been attending New Creation Church since 2003. In 2008, I moved to Australia, where I did my honours in psychology. Upon graduation, I wanted to further my studies. I did not manage to get into a masters programme in Australia so I moved back to Singapore where I managed to get a job as a psychologist.

In 2009, I decided to apply for graduate school again. This time, I applied to PhD programmes in America. I was full of confidence when sending out my applications, putting anointing oil on each form I mailed out, speaking favour over them and getting my friends to speak favour over my applications. I was very sure that I would get a place.

However, in the beginning of 2010, I started receiving rejection after rejection. It was devastating. The first school that rejected me was the University of Texas at Austin, America, which was my first choice because it has a very strong neuroimaging programme in its clinical psychology programme. The reason cited was a lack of funding. The professor who reviewed my application was very apologetic and encouraged me to reapply next year.

I felt very bitter and was very upset, but praise God for anointed pastors in our church. I was attending GenRev, New Creation Church’s youth ministry, regularly and during one of the services, Pastor Benjamin Lim mentioned a line that I knew God wanted me to hear. Pastor Benjamin said to wait, for the miracle will come, but at the right time. I did not want to wait, but, grumbling to myself, I decided to listen and spend time in the Word. After spending time in the Word, I realised that I had not, contrary to my perception, been resting in God for my PhD programme. The fact that I was so worried and anxious, emailing schools and checking my application status assiduously showed that I still thought I was in control of my situation. I was trying to experience restful increase without resting.

After that GenRev service, I spent time in the Word, read Pastor Prince’s books Destined To Reign and Unmerited Favor again and just enjoyed His presence. I no longer cared that I did not get a place in a school. In fact, I was already looking for other places to apply for the next year and explored other options.

But the Lord had other plans for me. In April 2010, I received an email from the professor at the University of Texas at Austin, informing me that some funds were newly released. He asked if I was still interested in the programme. When I said I was, she went out of her way to arrange online interviews for me with the heads of the department, the director of clinical training, core faculty members and two of her students. She even sent me articles on neuroimaging to read and told me about the research profiles of the interviewers! Praise God for His favour!

After that, I was informed that I was offered a place in the school. There was no way I could have gotten into the school on my own. The acceptance rate for clinical psychology in America is very low. I could not even get into a masters programme in Australia. It was only favour and nothing else that got me in. The offer I received included a teaching assistantship, a fellowship and a waiver of four years of my course fees. I only have to pay US$800 per semester. In addition, I would be given an allowance every year during my course. The Lord not only blessed me with a place in school, but He also ensured that I would not have to go into debt in order to obtain my degree! The Lord really turned this situation around for me and went beyond what I had asked Him for.

Thank you, Pastor Prince and Pastor Benjamin, for your amazing messages. It is an honour to call you my pastors. I fully intend to keep in touch with the church while I am away, attend every possible service when I am in Singapore and grab hold of Pastor Prince's resources. New Creation Church will always be my home church.

Blessed and Experienced a Life Transformed

I am from a small town in Staffordshire, England. I was experiencing one tragedy after another in my life. My daughter passed away four days after she was born, and five years later, my wife and two sons left me. That same year, my sister died due to heart failure. I felt like my world had come to an end. I had been a Christian for over 20 years and I kept going to church because I knew if I stopped, I would never go back. I did not know what to do but I felt God telling me to run the race and not give up.

In April 2009, I was retrenched after working for 16 years as a sales manager in a large company. I started working at the age of 15 and at the age of 50, I found no joy in looking for a job. So I talked to God about it. I started shouting and shouting and God just listened. After I had finished shouting, I heard God telling me to run the race and keep my eyes on Him. I thought, “What kind of answer is that? I have bills to pay.”

Then, a friend of mine from Singapore visited me in England and asked if I could help him out in his company in Singapore. It was hard for me to leave my family and my church but I agreed. It was a big step of faith for me to come to Singapore but our God is so good. I made a promise to myself that I would find a church where I would get some good teachings. After a few weeks of visiting several churches, I came to New Creation Church and felt at home. Then, I got Pastor Prince’s book — Unmerited Favor — and I could not put it down.

My life started to change. For the first time in my life, I was seeing God’s Word in a new and exciting way and I wanted more of His Word every day. For many years, I saw myself as a nobody, but Pastor Prince said during one of the Sunday services that God did not die for a nobody. He died for you, a somebody. What a wake-up call that was. I am going to read Unmerited Favor again as I do not want to miss out on anything. I have been telling my family back in England to get hold of this book and be blessed. I just want to give God the glory and for using Pastor Prince to bring such a powerful message through this book. I am now attending a care group in New Creation Church and am enjoying the fellowship and the teachings. I have also made wonderful new friends here at church. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for writing Unmerited Favor.

Amen to God’s Blessings!

I was in the financial consulting business for about four to five years with my previous company. One evening, while attending our children’s ministry, Rock Kidz, servers’ meeting. Pastor Lian, the ministry pastor, mentioned how a lady was blessed after saying, "Amen," upon hearing the testimony of a guy who received a bonus eight times his salary. Without thinking, I also said, “Amen” to that testimony.

A few months later, I was headhunted by a manager to join his company. I was reluctant initially because I had a large clientele base in my previous firm and that meant income. However, I was impressed with the skills and knowledge of the director and resources of his company and eventually, went over to improve myself.

Before I joined the firm officially, they told me that being an independent firm, they do not offer compensation for me leaving my clientele.

Nonetheless, I took a step of faith and quit my job to join them. Amazingly, just as I decided to leave, my new company managed to find a sponsor and was willing to compensate me with a large sum of money for leaving my ex-company. Above all, they did not impose any requirements on me for the compensation.

It then occurred to me that this sum of money was about eight times my monthly salary in the year 2013. To add more glory to the Lord, just as I thought the compensation scheme was an ongoing one, a fellow colleague whom I met during training told me that the company no longer offered compensation straight after my batch! The Lord blessed me and many others for my sake!

Hallelujah! This means God opened the door at the right time just so that I could receive this large pay-out. Anytime earlier or later and I wouldn't be able to receive any compensation at all!

All glory to the Lord for His generosity towards me. Indeed, when we sow our time into His kingdom, He will repay us much more as He is a debtor to no man!

Protected from Fire and Successful Application for a New House

On Sunday, 5 January 2014, the corridor outside my parents’ house, where I was residing in, caught fire at around 4.50am. The huge fire engulfed the windows and live cables suspended dangerously near the main door.

There was no way my family and I could escape. I was shocked and in a state of daze and confusion. We quickly called the fire helpline. My kind neighbours came with buckets of water and helped to put out the fire successfully. Even though we lost two bicycles and our windows and cables were burnt, no one was hurt.

In the midst of all the mayhem, I thank God for always being with me and my family. Like what Pastor Prince had prayed in service this year, none of my family members or myself would die before our time. Instead, we would live to 120 years old and our eyes shall not grow dim nor our strength abated.

Later that day, we went to church, fully conscious of God’s unmerited favour and blessings in our lives.

During the service, my daughter and I brought our three prayer requests to the Lord. One of my prayer requests was a flat where my two kids and I could live in. This had been my prayer for the past three years as none of my housing deals was successful.

Back in November 2013, I already applied for a Build-To-Order (BTO) flat near my parents’ home. And every time on my way to work, I would pass by the land, on which the flat would be built, and speak blessings and take possession of it. I was hopeful and deep inside I knew that God has plans to prosper me and not to harm me. His plans were to give me a hope and a bright future.

Then on 8 January 2014, three days after I committed my three prayer requests to the Lord , I received a piece of good news — my application for a BTO flat had been successful and my queue number comprised of the number seven (a significant number that represented God’s divine perfection and completeness).

To the world, getting a new flat is never easy, especially in a country where land is scarce and demand for flats is high. But in God’s economy, He provides for His people.

I know that what God has blessed, He would never take away. I rest knowing that 2014 is indeed a year of greater glory! All glory and praise to Jesus. And thank you Pastor Prince for sharing the good news that I love to hear every Sunday morning. The good news of the gospel. Amen and amen!

Resting in Jesus for Son’s Studies

Since preschool, my son, Darryl Hans, had been labelled as a slow learner, dreamer and late bloomer by his teachers, tutors and friends. They kept telling me that he would not be able to make it for his Primary School Leaving Examinations (PSLE).

When the year 2013 arrived, Pastor Prince declared that the theme of the year was the key of David. So, we placed our trust in the Lord, believing that He would open many doors for Darryl who was taking PSLE at the end of the year.

As we kept listening to Pastor Prince every week, I learnt to coach Darryl with rest. In the past, I used to scold him very harshly when he got very poor results.

But with a renewed confidence in Jesus, I began to have lots of fun, laughter and joy while studying with Darryl. During that time, Darryl even said to me, "Mummy, I think you are the best tutor!" These were the most heart-warming words from Darryl!

I really thanked Jesus for enlightening me with the power of right believing. He showed me that I had to trust that He would prosper Darryl in his studies.

We were also surprised by the change in Darryl. Even though he had finished reading Pastor Prince’s books, Destined To Reign and Unmerited Favour in Primary Five, he did not appear to be close to Jesus. And he would neither sing nor talk when he attended Rock Kidz in church.

But during the exam period, he diligently asked to partake of the Holy Communion every night. He even asked Jesus to take over because he did not want to be the only boy retained in Primary Six.

Finally, on the day when his PSLE results were released, we went to his school with an expectation of good. When I saw his score, I wanted to laugh! Jesus truly has a good sense of humour. Darryl managed to score a grade that qualified him to a good neighbourhood school which was five (number of grace) bus stops away from our house! All glory to Jesus.

Thank You Jesus, and Pastor Prince, for your super anointed preaching that has helped us to believe right and therefore, live right!

Better Attitude Towards Studies After Leaning on Jesus

In 2012, I was not focused on my studies at all. I would go to school every day and just sleep in class, completely ignoring what my teachers were teaching.

Some of my teachers even gave up trying to keep me awake in class. During the end-of-year examinations, I would go into the hall, write my name and sleep half the paper away without even opening the question booklets. Needless to say, my results were very bad. I was 8th in the level, counting from the back of course, and I had a L1R5 score of 46 with which I could go nowhere. I had also never been good in my Chinese language. Throughout the whole year, I had been failing my Chinese language papers and was the lowest in the whole cohort.

At the Parents-Teachers Meeting, I was informed by my principal that I had to be retained in Secondary 3 because I did not pass the promotion criteria. When my other schoolmates knew about this, they started saying things like, “You are a failure,” or “You will never do well in life.” These words kept repeating in my mind and I was mediating on the negative things that people said about me. I started asking God why my results were like this and why He didn’t help me.

Then I remembered the sermon Pastor Lawrence preached the Sunday before the meeting. He shared that happiness is not found in our circumstances but in the Lord. He quoted Romans 8:28 where it is written, “And we know that all things God works for good to those who love God, to those who are called according to His purpose.”  My Royal Service Ministry leader also told me that when life throws you lemon, make lemonade out of it.

As I repeated Secondary 3 this year, I started mediating on Jeremiah 29:11, “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.” I also started declaring that Jesus has full knowledge of the Chinese language and as He is, so am I in this world. I also prayed that I shall have favour and be a vessel of blessing in my new class. As I leaned on Jesus more throughout the year, I found studying much easier and actually much more fun. I found myself focusing more and not sleeping in class.

When I got back my overall results and compared it to the previous year, it was a big difference by the grace of God! My L1R5 was 26 points. I was also the top in Chinese language in the whole cohort.

I want to thank God for placing supportive people in my life such as my DARE Group leader and other leaders who are always there for me and encouraging me.

Now I believe we should never give up on a test in life because it shall become a testimony!

All glory to Jesus!

Scoring Third in Cohort by Focusing on God’s Word

When I was in Secondary Three, my grades were only borderline. I could not catch up with the syllabus and had to cram for my year-end exams. In 2014, I was in Secondary Four and it was time for me to take my GCE “N” level exams. The whole period was like a constant battle against time.

During my common tests, I was very stressed out trying to memorise a lot of materials. I even had the temptation to skip the youth services because I was afraid there wasn't enough time for me to revise.

However, thank God for my ever supportive mum, who always pointed me back to Jesus and His finished work on the cross. I kept listening to message after message and meditated on the Word of God believing that God's grace would superabound in my area of weakness and that all things would work out for my good.

The day before my tests, my mind was still trying to memorise as much information as possible but nothing seemed to go in. I literally told God that I was giving up and didn’t care about doing well anymore. 

In the past, I would always pray before entering the examination hall but this time round, I didn't because I foresaw myself failing. Yet, throughout the exam, I felt God's love and presence, and a warm tingling feeling that everything would be alright.

When I got my results back, I literally cried. I was extremely happy because I didn't see any red marks on my report book. All I saw was God's grace and even much more added on top of it.

I scored three A1s which had never happened in my life. I also passed my Chinese Language Paper for the first time and topped the level for Humanities and English Language. I scored the third position in my entire cohort, outdoing those who were very diligent.

I don't think it's something to be proud of and to flaunt. But if you were to ask me, I would say it's Him who did this. My teachers were all shocked to see me performing so well as I used to be a very nonchalant student. All I could say is it's not about me but about Him. 

To all those who are stressed because you are taking your “O” or “A” level exams, my advice is stay calm even if you are seeing your friends doing way better than you. I used to feel very demoralised but because I rested in Him, God blessed me beyond my imagination! Your identity is in Christ and your results do not define you because Jesus loves you!

Thank you Pastor Daniel for teaching us how to lean onto the Word of God and thank You Daddy God for being ever so faithful. I believe that “N” level will be easy-peasy for me because of your unwavering love!

Book Prize Winner by Grace

One evening during my night class, I was informed that the top student of the programme would receive a new book prize. I didn’t think that I would be the winner as there were at least three other classmates who were doing better than me.

I didn't think much about it but strangely, when I was driving home that night, something prompted me to ask the Lord to bless me with the prize. At that time, I was down to my last two modules before graduation.

Of the two modules, one was a disaster. I finished my assignment and saved it on my computer. But just when I was about to submit it, I realised that the file was corrupted and nothing was saved at all! My three whole days of work just went down the drain. I felt like crying and throwing my computer out the window.

But I knew I should call on my hero, Jesus, for help. This time, what took me three days to write, was completed in three hours. As the assignment was still fresh in my mind, I could reorganise the points and strengthen my arguments. Needless to say, this piece was much better than the previous one, and I did extremely well for the module.

As for the last module, we had to do a mini-research in groups. My team brainstormed for hours but no good ideas flowed. I felt the Lord prompt me to suggest a topic, and surprisingly, my suggestion was readily accepted by my team members. Later, we learnt that the topic also happened to be my lecturer’s interest topic and our group did very well.

And all these gave me just enough GPA points to be blessed with the award! Later, I found out that I was in the lead by 0.05 points only, and the monetary value of my book prize was almost three times more than the other awards given out at the graduation ceremony.

Praise the Lord!

Blessed with a New Job and Leadership Position

I had been in the same company in the IT industry for 10 years. I always thought that I would retire at that workplace, because apart from the environment, the company had a work-from-home policy that allowed me to spend more time with my kids.

In the past two years, things at work got worse due to several rounds of restructuring and changes in management practices. I was very unhappy at work. So for 2014, one of my three prayer requests was for a career change.

Right after that, I applied for a role via a professional networking service. I guess it must have always been there but that day, this job posting caught my attention. I checked through the requirements and was excited that this new job posting in the oil and gas industry actually welcomed applicants from the IT industry as well.

I applied for the job and trusted God to do the rest. I woke up one morning and saw a text message from this company's human resource team requesting for an interview on 16 January 2014.

On the interview day, I meditated on God's word and read testimonies under the career section to calm my nerves while I waited for my turn. The interview went well and I realised that the team was looking for someone with leadership experience. This was something I lacked as I was only a team leader and not a people manager. 

Daddy God really works in ways that far abundantly exceeds our expectations. Today, I am with this new company with a 30 per cent annual increment and in a leadership position.

This is my second week at work and every day as I step into the office, I am reminded that God is so good and I feel so loved. I see myself as very ordinary so I am very humbled that God is doing wonderful things for me in such a personal way. On paper, I may not be the most qualified but with God, all things are possible. My prayer for a career change was answered in February, just two months into 2014. I am so excited about what Daddy God has in store for me and my family this year.

Thank you Pastor Prince, for unveiling the true gospel of Jesus and for showing us how we can walk with Jesus in our everyday lives.

To God be the glory.

Triple Promotion and Favour in the Year of Greater Glory

I don't have a high education. There is no degree to my name, not even a diploma. I have only a lowly N-level education to begin with, and that is all I have. I did not pursue further education as I am not good with studies. Moreover, I am already in my early 40s with a family.

For many years, I worked as a chef and toiled in the kitchen. In the later phase of my life, I made a career switch and became a salesman. People told me that I was taking a huge risk and walking on landmines. They said that a chef won’t cut it as a salesperson.

My early days as a salesman weren't easy. I made numerous cold calls, faced rejections and had my fair share of unsympathetic clients who slammed the doors in my face. I questioned myself if I had made the right decision to leave my job as a chef.

One day, my brother persuaded me to attend New Creation Church after I had "backslidden" for a number of years. That day, I heard Pastor Prince preach on the anointing oil. After that, every time before I meet up with my client, I would apply the anointing oil on my proposals, quotations, forehead and mouth.

As time went by, clients who had once rejected me would call me up on their own accord, requesting for my product. When God answers, He oversupplies! At times, I couldn't handle the large amount of orders and even had to reject some of them.

God had also given me favour in my job and as Pastor Prince had proclaimed, 2014 is the year of greater glory. Praise be to Jesus! Just six months into this year alone, I was promoted not once, not twice, but three times! I was promoted from a sales manager to assistant general manager, then to general manager, and now I am the assistant vice-president of the regional office!

All glory to Jesus who provides me with His favour and wisdom. Truly, I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. (Philippians 4:13) Thank you Pastor Prince, for your ministry! God bless you!

Secured a Job Through God’s Unmerited Favour

In late January 2014, I attended a career fair organised by CPA Australia with a few of my friends.

At one particular booth, the partner of an accounting firm told me that I was a good candidate but still not good enough for what they are looking for. I was crushed. I cried while walking home and at the same time I talked to Jesus saying, "Jesus, You know what? No one loves me like You do. You tell me I am worthy even when they tell me I don't measure up. You see me at my weakest and yet still loves me. But You know what Lord? I am going to hold on to Your promises."

On the following Monday, I told the Lord to guide me and give me the wisdom to craft a really rock-solid Curriculum Vitae (CV) to send to this very same partner who said I didn’t measure up. I sent the CV and the reply wasn't favourable. She said she was really busy and would get back to me in March.

I then went on a holiday with my parents and totally forgot about the whole thing.

When I came back in February, I received a call from that very same firm telling me that I had been shortlisted for an interview with the tax director. In my heart, I knew it had to be God’s favour.

Before the interview, the Lord guided me to pray for my interviewer to see me as a woman of a different spirit and to let me speak right to her heart. So on the 13 February, I went for an interview that I didn't prepare adequately for. Before I left, the tax director told me that I could give her a call once I've decided whether I want to join her department. At the same time, she said there were many applicants and she could only pick the best. She also added that if I were selected, I had to be one of the best.

I felt like I had ruined the chance that Jesus gave me by not preparing enough and doing more. When I got home, I told my parents about the interview and my mum was really encouraging. She said to take it as a learning experience but my dad was certain I had ruined my chance.

I was devastated and I cried. At that time, I could only whine to Jesus and say, "Jesus, why? Isn't there favour? Why did it turn out this way?"

Subsequently, I spoke to my church leaders and friends who pointed me back to the Lord.

Then I told Jesus again that I wished to write a really lengthy email to the tax director but I have no idea how to. So I asked God to write and speak through me into her heart.

I sent the email on 17 February and waited. On Sunday, I attended church service and Pastor Prince talked about delays and why they happen. So I went home telling the Lord that if there was no reply until 1 March, I would look for other companies.

Then on 24 February, I got a call and was offered the job! God is so faithful and so real. He caused everything to be settled before March, way ahead of my graduation.

I have never taken a single tax module in my studies so how could I have been the best candidate? Even though I cannot understand this, I’ve learnt that Jesus wants to be involved in my daily life. He wants me to involve Him, speak to Him, spend time with Him and just let Him be my God. He wants me to take my place as the blessed and He, the “blesser”.

Blessed with a Better Job in the Year of Greater Glory

I was born into a third generation Christian family, but never really knew Jesus until about 12 years ago when I went through a personal crisis. Gradually, I began to discover the truth about God's amazing grace, thanks to the sermon CDs and books by Pastor Prince. I got to unlearn the old and became a new man.

When my family learnt that New Creation Church (NCC) was moving to The Star Performing Arts Centre, we made a commitment to start attending church regularly. Soon afterwards, I learnt that my job would be made redundant and I would soon be unemployed. 

At almost 50, I started to worry about many things, but I am blessed with a wife and children who are powerful prayer warriors. Being in NCC allowed me to hear the grace-filled messages, sing and praise our beautiful Lord Jesus, and spend some quiet time discovering the promises of God. These sustained me and kept me focused on His love for me. I must have declared "I am the righteousness of God in Christ" thousands of times during those long months of job search, interviews, and even trying to start my own business.  

Nothing seemed to work for me in all of 2013, and I started to wonder why God's key of David wasn't unlocking a new door for me. I found out later that it was just as important when God closed doors because He knows those weren't the right ones for us. So, despite my own efforts and prayers those doors that weren’t good for me remained closed.  

2013 ended with many questions and few answers, but then something happened.  I finally gave up on my own efforts and ideas. I told God I was ready to let Him do His thing. I was prepared for the worst-case scenario but I also knew that God would not let me down because He doesn't know how to fail.  His love endures forever. I just wasn't going to give Him any of my dumb suggestions anymore.

At first, the year 2014 was more or less the same. What seemed like a fantastic opportunity in the United States (US) fizzled out at the last minute, so another door closed. 

But as the year of greater glory unfolded, an opportunity in a different field appeared out of nowhere. Then a second opportunity appeared, followed by the third. These were large companies and global leaders in their field.

I reminded myself to let God do His thing. So, I decided to go ahead with holiday plans in Japan and the US with my wife, believing that God would provide. I started to focus on the “Blesser” instead of the blessings, and to let Him be the vine and the source. 

The first opportunity quickly turned into a real job offer with a contract emailed to me while I was in Napa, California. Three weeks after returning from holiday, I had two excellent job offers in hand.

After almost a year and a half, God swung open the doors.  He really wanted me to know that He always keeps His promises and He is also my generous and abundant Father. He is never too late and never insufficient.

I'm back to work now by the grace of God, in a role and at a company that's the best I've ever experienced. I didn’t get this position because I’m well connected, or because I have special skills. It was Jesus who did this for me. 

Bless the Lord for this land (job) that He has given me, the business I did not build, the products I did not design, yet I enjoy all the benefits of them. It is He who gives me the ability to produce wealth. Truly this is the year of greater glory, praise be to God.

Prayer Request for a Child Answered

From 2011, I started asking God to bless me with another child as I was nearing 40, and my eldest child was already nine years old.

I finally got pregnant in 2013 after two years of prayer. However, my happiness was short-lived. The pregnancy was ended when my baby was found to have no heartbeat after eight weeks of gestation. I was devastated.

I pressed on in prayer. Although I was out of the country and couldn’t bring my prayer requests to the Thanksgiving Sunday service at the end of 2013, God didn't forget or forsake me. I was pregnant again in 2014.

But the pregnancy wasn't all smooth-sailing. A blood test result in my second trimester showed that my child was at risk of being born with Down’s syndrome. My heart sank again. I prayed daily and partook of the Holy Communion, rebuking any disease that could harm my unborn child.

Finally, in September 2014, I delivered a healthy baby girl. Thank you God for answering my prayer request. Our God is good all the time.

Blessed with a Better–Paying Job

On 13 January 2016, I was retrenched from the company I had been working in for almost five years. To be honest, I was so excited as I was already thinking of leaving the company. Since I was retrenched, I received a severance pay which was five months of my salary. Nonetheless, I was aware that the money would eventually run out if I couldn’t find a job in time.

But I was so thankful for our church’s theme of the year which was “Possessing Our Possessions”. This gave me hope to believe the Lord would bring me to a new land (job) that is overflowing with milk and honey.

I started to look for a job online. Two months passed, and there was still no good news. Though there were a few job interviews that came along, nothing materialised.

Disappointments and fears began to set in when my wife told me about the amount of money we had left in our bank account. At that time, we had incurred quite a bit of expenses as we had just purchased our house and bought some furniture.

There were nights when I couldn’t sleep because there were so many things running through my mind, but I am thankful for having a wife who kept reminding me that the Lord is our provider and not me.

To be honest, waiting was very tough. The only thing I could do was to wait for doors to open. It was also a season when I had to strengthen my faith and fill my heart with God’s love, believing that He delights in me and that He is always for me. When feelings of disappointment came, I would remind myself of His goodness by meditating on His Word and confessing it aloud. During this time, Psalm 23 came alive to me.

Finally, when the third month came, I received a job offer! I could tell that it was the hand of Daddy God working for me as I did not possess the skills that my new employers were looking for.

They even gave me a higher position even though the recruitment was for an entry level position. As a result, I got an eight per cent increment from my last drawn salary!

This year is really the year where I possess my possessions! Not only did I become a house owner, I also received a new job! To God be the glory!

Receiving His Grace in the Area of Weakness

Pastor Prince has shared in his messages that he used to stutter when he was in his teens, and his classmates would laugh at him. But God uses the area of his weakness to spread the gospel now. Through his testimony, he encouraged us that our disqualification is the very area where God’s favour can flow. (2 Corinthians 12:9—10)

I strongly identify with it. When I was in kindergarten, I used to get zero for my spelling tests all the time. And I did not just get zero, I would repeatedly write my first name, middle name and last name on each line of my exercise book, as my name was the only thing I could spell. My mum was called in to speak with the teacher numerous times, as I could not write anything else other than my name during spelling sessions.

When I got into primary school, I still failed my spelling tests all the time, and I barely passed English during the crucial Primary School Leaving Examinations. But now, I am a PhD holder in Communication Studies, and writing is part of my job.

I believe that it is through God’s grace that my weakness is the very area where His favour has flowed. I thank Lord Jesus Christ for the plentiful supply in my very area of disqualification today. Amen!

Securing a Good Job at the Age of 60!

For several years, I had been doing freelance work overseas in order to stay employed. Whilst this work paid very well, it required me to spend a lot of time away from my home and family.

In 2016, I decided to quit taking on freelance work and applied for a position based in Singapore. I knew that it would be difficult as I was a newly–minted senior citizen and for many employers in Singapore, that would be a basis for rejection. Nonetheless, I took the church’s yearly theme to heart and resolved to possess my possessions, and relied on the grace of God to help me.

In February, I received an enquiry from a local firm to take on some project work for their client. It was not as well–paying as my freelance work but I was reminded to start small and await great things from God. The interview went very well, and the firm agreed to offer me a position once the client signed the contract.

It was at that time when the situation went awry. Things kept cropping up and these hurdles stood in the way of the firm clinching the contract. My first instinct was to use my self–efforts to force things through. However, I resisted this temptation and took Pastor Prince’s advice to let God fight my battles.

The process dragged on for weeks and I began to become disheartened. Then, I heard a sermon by Pastor Lim Lian Neo who encouraged us to draw back into the presence of the Lord, and be surrounded by His grace and peace.

Finally, after nearly two months of waiting, the approvals came through and I received my letter of appointment. To be offered a management position at a respected firm in Singapore, and receiving a market salary with benefits at 60 years old, is truly a miracle.

All thanks and praise go to our God who is truly great!

Prayer for Job Answered

I left my job of more than 10 years in October 2015. I was asked to leave because of some bad life choices and mistakes made. I was holding a relatively senior position in the company but had not been promoted for a couple of years due to poor performance.

I felt quite defeated and ashamed of my circumstances but I knew I had no one to blame but myself. Over the next couple of months or so, prior to me leaving the company, my church team leader prayed with me for a good outcome. He and a couple of my friends stood in faith with me that things would turn around.

I was still asked to leave but there was grace in the situation. Instead of making me to leave, my supervisor gave me the option of tendering my resignation. On top of that, she extended my stay just so that I could be given my 13th month bonus.

After I had left the company, I spent about a week resting at home. I didn’t really know what I wanted to do and felt numb inside. I continued to languish for about another week or so before I started to ask God what I should do in my situation. Somehow, I decided to apply for temporary jobs to tide me over until I find a permanent one. After what had happened, I was wondering if I could even find a permanent job since I had no desire to go back to my original line but had no experience in anything else.

The next morning after sending out my applications for temporary positions, I was asked to go for an interview and a week later, I was offered a one–month position as a customer service officer and receptionist at an educational institution.

Though happy to have landed myself a job, I was also slightly ashamed that I was taking on such a position and at a small fraction of my previous pay, but I thought to myself, I should be thankful I even found any job at all.

Well, my one–month temporary job offer turned into a three–month stint when the company extended my stay. I found that I enjoyed what I did and was good at it. Through the job, I met really nice people and regained some self–esteem. It also taught me to be grateful and thankful for simple things and to be humble.

After my stint at the company came to an end in February 2016, I started to worry about what was going to happen next. I tried not to worry by reminding myself that God would provide. The constant encouragement from my friends and leader also helped.

One Sunday, while waiting to start serving in church, a team leader prayed for us and shared that God would provide a job by the end of the month. Though I wasn’t really paying attention, this statement stood out to me.

On 1 March 2016, I started a four–month contract job as a customer service officer in a legal firm. Again, I found that I enjoyed what I was doing. Towards the end of my contract, the Human Resource Manager asked if I would like to stay on as a permanent staff but I turned down the offer as I didn’t want to continue in this line.

Coincidentally, at the same time I tendered my resignation, I learnt that one of the legal secretaries had also tendered. I had fleeting thoughts that maybe I should consider her position but reasoned against it since I had already turned down the first offer and had zero experience in secretarial work.

Well, it seems like God had other plans. In one of my Human Resource Manager’s usual check–ins on my job search, I casually mentioned to her that I seemed to like administrative work. She then asked me if I would consider taking on the legal secretary job.

Well, to cut a long story short, I was offered the position of a legal secretary the next day after going through a formal interview with the firm’s partner. On top of that, the salary was close to my original salary — and all these were given to me even though I did not have one iota of experience!

Flourishing in His Career

I lost my job in July 2015 and had been out of job for the past eight months. During this time, I experienced the process of “walking through the fiery furnace” or as some would call it, “walking through the valley of the shadow of death”.

I prided myself on my personal achievements through the years, and held on to my job titles and designations like they were trophies. Therefore, when they were taken away, I felt a sense of loss.

I repeatedly condemned myself and my mind kept replaying on what I could have done, and I blamed myself for not trying my best to pacify my ex–boss who had forced me to take on another role.

During this time, I continued job hunting and went from aggressively applying for many jobs to only sending out a few applications. Even though the job responses were not good, I never gave up hope. I knew the Lord was preparing me for something greater.

And the past eight months had been wonderful. During this period, I became a temporary stay–home dad and got to observe my children and learn how they were growing up. This valuable time gave me a chance to help them, correct them and care for them.

I even took the opportunity to bring my family to Florida and New York City for the December holidays — something which I couldn’t do in the past due to work commitments.

I also took on an entrepreneurship adventure in coding and robotics education business. By God’s grace, I was blessed with 15 trainers and four school accounts. By November 2015, my company was officially registered and I found an ideal location to offer public courses as well. And during the March school holidays, the Lord provided students for my business and it was great!

Then in March 2016, I was given an incredible job offer with a better package than what I had before despite the global economic climate. How wonderful is our God! Along with this new job, I now have a business that is managed by my wife.

As Pastor Prince mentioned, we use the Word of God to fight the good fight of faith. When doubts arose, I chose to believe in Him and held on to the promises in His Word such as “I am a chosen generation, a royal priesthood” (ref: 1 Peter 2:9) and “the Lord will make me the head and not the tail” (ref: Deuteronomy 28:13). By laying down my pride and focusing on Jesus’ finished work and His righteousness, and trusting that the Lord was delighted to bless me, I experienced the breakthrough.

In this whole experience, I learnt to understand the Lord is always with me. He loves my family and provides for us. It is not me who puts bread on the table. Indeed, I had a grace revolution in my life! It is all about His love for me.

From Failing to Excelling in Subject

In my two years of studying Principles Of Accounts (POA), I would always get a grade F9 (below 40 per cent) for my examinations. The best grade I ever got was E8 (40–44 per cent) and even up till my preliminary examinations, I was still getting an F9.

I thought that no matter how hard I worked, I would never be able to pass the subject. And since POA was the last paper for my GCE O-Level examinations, I took only around one week to revise for it.

When I sat for the paper, I felt that it was quite manageable. But when I compared my answers with my friends who always scored distinctions for the subject, I felt like almost all my answers were wrong.

On the day the results would be released, I anointed the result slip envelope before reading its content. I was so shocked to see that my grade was B3 (65–69 per cent) for my POA. The Lord not only gave me a pass, He gave me more than what I had expected!

Though I got an aggregate of 15 points for my L1R4, it was only considered average. I could use two bonus points from my Co-Curricular Activities to reduce my aggregate points to 13, but I was not able to get into the business school in the polytechnic of my choice as they only accepted students with a maximum of 12 points.

I was then accepted into a tourism course in another polytechnic. Even though that was one of the courses that I wanted, I was quite disappointed.

A few weeks later, I heard from my friends that those who had applied for the polytechnic of my first choice had received their enrolment package and they asked me to look out for mine.

I then rushed to my letter box and found the enrolment package with my name and identification number on it! I felt so blessed to have two polytechnics to choose from.

Despite my results, I still got into the business school of my first choice, and I am also excelling in my POA module. All glory to Jesus!

Restoring a Job Beyond 120 Percent!

In September 2014, I made a rushed and unwise decision to quit my job without securing another job. I began my job hunt immediately after that. But in the next three months, I was only able to secure three interviews, and none was successful.

As time goes by, the demands of life crept into me and I panicked. During this time, I continued to meditate on God’s Word and also kept listening to Pastor Prince’s sermons that gave me peace.

After listening to the theme of the year message for 2015, I kept declaring: “Father, restore!” Many of my church mates also stood in faith with me as I continued to send out my résumé.

Then on 8 January 2015, I received my first invitation in the year to attend an interview. I was happy but by then, I had lost all my confidence in securing a job. The night before the interview, I continued to declare: “Father, restore,” as I was fearful of another unsuccessful interview.

I went for the interview even though I was afraid. The following day, on 15 January 2015, I received a phone invitation to a second interview in the afternoon. After this second interview, I was immediately offered the job by the hiring manager. Hallelujah!

When he asked me how much I wanted for my salary, I remembered Pastor Prince told us that God would restore 120 per cent for our loss. But because of my lack of confidence, I decided to just ask for the same amount as what I used to get.

However, to my delight, he agreed to it and even added transport and mobile allowances. My entire remuneration package summed up to be 1.32 times that of my previous salary. I was blown away by it because I did not expect it. Praise Jesus.

After I had considered and prayed over the offer, I accepted it and would start my job on 19 January 2015.

Restoration feels really good! Thank You Daddy God, and thank you Pastor Prince for the grace message, and also for sharing the theme of 2015. I am even more expectant of God’s restoration this year. Glory to Jesus!

Divine Results and Exemption

I am a Singaporean who had been living in Melbourne, Australia for 14 years. At the start of 2014, Pastor Prince prophesied that children from afar would come home to be with their families.

At that time, I had already been actively praying about whether I should move back as my whole family resides in Singapore. I decided to move back in November 2014. As I was a qualified lawyer in Australia, I applied for exemption from the Bar Examinations (there were 13 papers in total) and training in Singapore which would take a total of two years.

Three weeks before the scheduled Bar Examinations, I was notified that I had to sit for the first set of the Bar Examinations. I felt an overwhelming sense of disappointment and uncertainty. I was daunted by the prospect of having to do five exams in Singapore law and I did not even attend the course. But I trusted in Daddy God for my breakthrough even though I only had three weeks to go.

I flew back to Singapore to study for the exams. I knew deep down inside that I could reign over every uncertainty and disappointment, and that Daddy God’s style of restoration is so much better.

Thankfully, I had a friend from New Creation Church who had sat for the Bar Examinations and had excellent exam notes. Every day, I would partake of the Holy Communion and declare that I am the righteousness of God in Christ and that I have the mind of Christ. I sat for the examinations and passed all of them even though I had never practised Singapore law and didn’t even attend the four–month course!

After I obtained the results, I decided to re–apply for exemption from the remaining Bar Examinations and training. This would save me one–and–a–half years of training. I felt that this training would be redundant as I was already a qualified lawyer with several years of experience. In the two months while I waited for the outcome, I confessed favour and goodness over my life, and that even if 10,000 applicants had been disqualified, I would be granted unmerited favour because of Jesus.

Two months later, I received notification that due to my “unique and unusual circumstances”, I was exempted from all the remaining exams and training. I knew Jesus really has an amazing sense of humour because the person who signed off on that letter was called Grace!

The day I got called to the Bar, I received notification that I had landed an interview with a really good law firm. The day I got the job offer, the law firm went international.

All praise to Jesus for placing me at the right place, at the right time and for causing all His unmerited favour to fall upon me. I know that whilst there might sometimes be initial disappointments in life, Daddy’s God style of restoration is always beyond my wildest imaginations!

All praise to Jesus and thank you Pastor Prince for spreading the message of grace!

A Pageant Winner Thanks to God’s Favour

I started attending New Creation Church three years ago in 2012. In 2014, I participated in a national male pageant as I promised a friend that I would support the competition.

To be honest, I did not expect to be chosen but I was. At 45, I was the second oldest participant. I was not exactly the “good–looking” kind of guy, neither did I have the best physique and I had an awful voice. I would have stage fright and was definitely not the most eloquent person.

Being an introvert, joining the contest was basically just to motivate myself and make more friends.

On the day of the finals, I was extremely nervous. I remember praying to God for confidence. Halfway into the competition, the names of the top five contestants were being announced, and my name was called out last.

When I heard my name, I thanked God for bringing me so far but that would also mean that I had to through the Q&A segment soon. I started to panic. As I was waiting for the other four contestants to answer their questions, I was telling myself, “That’s it, you are going to stutter, blurt some nonsensical answer and make a fool of yourself.”

At that moment, I asked God for wisdom and guidance as I knew I could not go through that by myself. When my turn came, I walked out and answered the question. It was an answer that did not come from me but from above. With God’s favour, I nailed the Q&A and won the title!

Blessed with a Better–Paying Job

I have been gainfully employed since 2007 after graduating from university. My starting salary was decent but ever since I got married, I had a bigger family to support and I really needed a pay raise to make ends meet.

However, I had never been promoted and my pay increment was only around $100 plus each year. I would hear about my peers getting promoted and advancing in their careers, and drawing much higher salary. Fortunately, my wife would always remind me that I hold one advantage over them which is the fact that I have Jesus in my life.

In 2015, the year of His restoration, I managed to secure a new job, which itself was a miracle because I did not perform up to the mark during my first and final interviews. However, I reminded myself that it was not dependent on me to get the job but it was all dependent on Jesus’ work at the cross. I anointed myself with anointing oil for the extra boost I needed for the interviews.

Another good news is that, the company offered me a better remuneration package than what I had asked for and it was comparable to what my peers are drawing. Indeed, the years I felt I had lost were restored to me. Praise be to Jesus my Lord.

Secured New Job a Week After Retrenchment

I graduated from university in 2009 and started looking for my first job. I was favoured at every interview I went for during that time and managed to secure job offers.

In late 2014, I had a desire to leave my workplace for a new job and started to send out my résumé. This time, however, I couldn’t get a job offer even after the first and second rounds of interviews. It was puzzling, but I knew God was good and He would take care of all my steps.

In early 2015, my company underwent a restructuring and there were rumours of retrenchment. My colleagues and I were called in for individual interviews on a particular Friday and the mood was very heavy as everyone was troubled about the retrenchment rumours.

During this time, the Lord opened three potential job positions for me at various international companies. In fact, I was scheduled to have a phone interview with a potential employer the same Friday as my individual interview.

I went for the individual interview and was informed that I had been retrenched. However, I was offered a retrenchment package and it was an amount I had not expected. That same day, my phone interview was successful and I was invited for a face–to–face interview the next week. I was also invited for interviews with other potential employers, and within a week from my retrenchment, the Lord blessed me with job offers from ALL the potential employers.

Not only had He blessed me with good job offers, the benefits and pay were as good, or considerably better, and I secured a job by the next Friday — less than a week after I had been retrenched.

I understood why Daddy God kept the doors shut in November 2014, because if I had left then, I would not have gotten the healthy retrenchment package I did. Also, in 2014, my pay scheme underwent a restructuring that meant my 2014 income was much lower than my previous years’ salaries. However, the retrenchment package I was given in early 2015 was big enough to cover any salary shortfall I suffered in 2014.

Daddy God restored my time, finances, career and happiness through all this. It could only be Daddy God’s love, making sure I didn’t have to worry about finding a job after being retrenched and that I had open doors the very week I was retrenched, and He granted me a successful interview on the very day of my retrenchment.

I really praise the Lord for His goodness in my life, and know there is much more in store. Amen!

Praise Jesus!

Remarkable Recovery from Virus Infection

In March 2012, during the first school semester break, my daughter, Megan, who was in Secondary 3, was selected to participate in an overseas learning programme in Australia.

After she got back, she came down with a mild fever and missed two days of school. However, what was initially thought to be just mild fever became something so serious that we, as a family, were not prepared for.

Her fever persisted and she continued to experience fatigue and backache. The doctor then ordered her to go for tests to check on her liver function and blood count level. Thank God for wisdom in the attending doctor as I was still dismissing the situation as just another usual fever episode.

On the following day, I received a call from the clinic saying that my daughter had to be admitted to the hospital as the test results were very bad.

Usually, a healthy liver would have an alanine aminotransferase (ALAT) serum reading of around 5 to 30 micromole per litre. But my daughter’s liver test results came back with a whopping 561 micromole per litre, which was more than 10 times the healthy level. To be exact, it was 18.7 times more.

She was admitted to the hospital on 22 March 2012 where they ran a battery of tests on her. After three days, the doctor was still unable to give a clear diagnosis of my daughter’s condition as blood culture test results would only be ready in another couple more days.

Meanwhile, my daughter’s ALAT serum reading managed to drop to around 200 micromole per litre. Though it was still above the acceptable range, the doctor acceded to our request to have my daughter discharged on the condition that she goes for her blood test every week.

Nine days after her discharge, it was confirmed that my daughter had contracted a nasty infection known as Epstein–Barr Virus (EB Virus).

This virus usually attacks the healthy liver, resulting in fever, extreme weakness of body and jaundice. The patient will also experience discomfort and abdominal pain.

My daughter suffered from all of the symptoms and the subsequent weekly blood tests results indicated an atrociously high ALAT serum of more than 1,500 micromole per litre. She was then admitted to the hospital for a second time.

As parents, one could only imagine the kind of anguish and predicament that we were in. But this was when all the teachings we had received through Pastor Prince’s ministry were put to test.

The circumstances forced us to rely on God’s grace to guard our hearts and minds. It wasn’t just about the illness we were battling with. My daughter was also anxious about her studies and 10 weeks of lessons missed.

One would have imagine how badly damaged her liver was at this time with ALAT serum readings in the region of 1,500 to 1,800 micromole per litre. Health studies told us that she might end up suffering from chronic fatigue and would take up to a year to regain her full energy.

Thank God that our Abba Father has the final say! Despite the ridiculously high readings, we had His unshakeable peace. We continued to believe that healing is our daughter’s blood–bought right because of the finished work of Jesus at Calvary.

Youth ministry pastor, Pastor Daniel Chong, also came to the hospital to pray and encouraged us to count on Daddy God for our daughter’s complete healing and restoration.

Praise God that He has the authority and power to change our circumstances! All glory to His name! My daughter did not suffer from any chronic fatigue. Instead, she made a remarkable recovery and was given a clean bill of health in early June. She also made it to the annual youth camp two weeks later in Malaysia!

God’s unclouded favour continued to rain upon my daughter as she found favour with her school’s principal and teachers. Her teachers set aside time when the new school term began in July to help her catch up with the studies that she had missed in the 10 weeks that she was absent from school. What an awesome God we have!

In the following year, my daughter sat for her O–Levels examinations and she did well.

In addition, God also intervened and we were able to pay off more than 98 percent of my daughter’s hefty hospitalisation bill through an insurance payout. This was a huge relief for us and we are still thankful to Daddy God’s timely provision.

Vindicated at Work

I went through a valley of humiliation for almost two months. I felt marginalised at work and the new person who was taking over my job was very insensitive. Together with my boss, they made me feel like the proverbial mushroom.

I was kept in the dark regarding the things that were going on in the office and the newcomer even bypassed me to give my staff instructions.

I had been in this job for 10 years. Although I was prepared to be put out to pasture, the way it was done was unkind.

Through attending New Creation Church services regularly, God ministered to me through the sermons. Most of all, I took comfort that while God might not have stopped all the weapons formed against me, He gave me the assurance that they would not prosper.

I prayed for vindication and declared that I am the righteousness of God in Christ. Indeed, God delivered me, and truly prepared a table before me in the presence of my enemies.

To cut to the chase, God caused the people who were behind all these to quarrel and fall out among themselves. On top of that, the newcomer was rejected by the main board and my contract was extended for at least another two years!

I was just overwhelmed by the goodness of God. I did not and need not lift a hand or speak a single word to address the injustice of the situation.

When I heard Pastor Lawrence Lim’s sermon titled He Will Carry You Through Your Darkest Moments on Sunday, 2 August 2015, it was as if the message was for me.

When Pastor Lawrence mentioned that Jesus was the lily of the valley, I just cried and cried knowing just how very good and real God is. He is, as pastor said — the only good and fragrant presence in the midst of the journey in the valley of darkness. And He saw me through that valley. Amen.

All glory to God.

Safe Delivery of Baby and Cysts in Wife’s Womb Discovered Through Divine Arrangement

My wife and I have been married for a couple of years and decided it was time to start a family. We prayed about it and rested in His finished work, and my wife conceived. During the pregnancy, we prayed for a supernatural and painless delivery. However, it turned out to be quite the opposite.

On the day of delivery, all seemed normal until a sudden contraction and pain started to kick in after just 45 minutes of laying on the hospital bed. My wife was in unbearable pain but the doctor advised against an epidural as our baby’s heartbeat was unstable and kept dropping to below 100 beats per second (135 and above would be normal). The doctor recommended an emergency caesarean section (C–section) and sought our consent.

I murmured a prayer under my breath and spoke in tongues. I texted my care group leader to pray alongside with me and could only hope for the best. It was definitely not what we were expecting. As nervous as I was, I continued trusting in Him. After 15 minutes, our healthy baby boy was out. Praise the Lord!

While my wife was still inside the operating theatre, I received a call from her doctor that they had noticed three small cysts inside her womb while performing the C–section. She had called to ask for my permission to remove the cysts and I agreed.

As we look back at the whole ordeal, I know that God had been in control all this while. His ways are higher and He knew what was best for us. Although He did not answer our prayers for a natural delivery, the C–section allowed the doctors to detect and remove the cysts! Had they grown and developed, she would probably have to undergo an operation again. It might even affect her next pregnancy had the cysts gone undetected. Praise the Lord for His restoration of health!

And when we thought it was wonderful, He made it even sweeter beyond our imagination. We were faced with a huge five–figure bill but the Lord had it all planned out.

Our insurance does not cover emergency C–section or pregnancy related costs. However, because of the surgery to remove the cysts, some portions of the hospital and ward charges became claimable. Finally, after deducting the funds paid from our Medisave, we needed to pay only a few hundred dollars in cash! Praise the name of Jesus! He restores back to us financially as well. Indeed, He has given us the victory in Christ Jesus and holds true to His promises. To God be the glory forever and ever! Amen.

Restful Success in Children’s Studies

In 2014, my three children ended the year with poor academic results. So one of my three prayer requests in 2015 was for my children to have supernatural and restful success in their studies especially when my eldest son would go through streaming and my second daughter would be taking her Primary School Leaving Examinations (PSLE).

I started the year with new resolutions and schedules for my children hoping to instil discipline and to help them in their studies. As a mother, I believed that that was the most practical way I could help them.

However, as the year progressed, revision sessions between me and my children turned into disappointments, frustrations and angry words. The mid–year exam results for my children were an utter dismay. I was told by the form teacher that my oldest was at the verge of staying back or falling into the normal stream. At the same time, my 12–year–old might need to repeat her PSLE.

I was exhausted and came to the end of myself. All the efforts I had put in did not result in any improvement at all. Instead, these efforts strained my relationship with my children.

On 7 June 2015, Pastor Prince preached a message titled Live Life Loved by The Shepherd. Through this message, I had a revelation that the Lord loved me and my children, and wanted to take care of us. I decided to rest in the Lord and He showed me in Zechariah 4:6–7 that the breakthrough in my children’s studies would not come about by force nor by my own strength but by HIS GRACE! I was so thrilled I shared the verses with my family so we could believe in His promise in the Word together.

I also started to partake of the Holy Communion with my children every morning and declared blessings over them. I stopped all the revision activities and consciously refrained from speaking out of worry. It was not easy and when I got worried, I would listen to the sermon again and again.

All glory and praise be to Jesus who loves us! My oldest son passed his final exams and was promoted to Secondary 3. My youngest came in 4th in class and jumped two classes forward. My 12–year–old passed her PSLE and will move on to Secondary 1.

I am grateful for what He has done and I believe with all my heart that He will see us through the coming year and many more years to come. Thank you, Pastor Prince for your timely message. I am thankful for you and New Creation Church. Be blessed!

Qualified by Jesus

I just started working at an international firm as an in–house designer. Four years prior to this, nothing worked out.

I had worked at other places but couldn’t stay for long due to various reasons such as the company not needing anymore staff or the end of a contract. Once, the company that I was working for, ran into debt. Though I wanted so much to stay there, I had to leave when my pay was delayed and debtors were calling up to demand for payments.

With each experience, I began to feel that I wasn’t good enough. Though I wanted so much to stay at a job, it just didn’t work out even though I worked hard. It didn’t help that I didn’t know what I wanted to do or like as design was something that I stumbled upon when I was serving at a youth camp.

When things did not work out, design became a means to an end. While I was looking for work after a contract ended in December 2015, I was played out by a company who cancelled an interview unjustly. I remember telling the Lord that I was done and tired of this.

Every time I scrolled through the job portals, I disqualified myself more and more because I did not have the experience or qualifications listed.

While other people had double degrees that complement each other. I only had double diplomas from courses that were complete opposites. The first diploma I had was in an industry that was so niche that I’d to get a degree or a masters overseas before getting anywhere.

The second diploma was from a school that was almost unheard of. There was also nothing stellar about my work experience. Five jobs in four years with the longest being a year. Though design related, it was in a non–profit organisation. That brought my agency experience close to zero. Anyone in the industry would tell you that having agency experience is like a passport. Without it, you’re pretty much stuck.

Yet in all this, Jesus caused my curricula vitae to be found by a Human Resource company.

The night before the interview, I thought that they might laugh in my face. I felt ashamed that I might not be “not good enough”. During this time, God used a leader to encourage me through the Word and that gave me the confidence to know that I could stand tall as I go for the interview.

The interview was surprisingly easy. I didn’t have to promote myself or sell myself short. The interviewer even liked my work and shortly after the interview, I was told that they would negotiate a better pay package for me.

The next day, I was offered the job! The following week, I signed the contract and all these happened in exactly eight days!

It has been four days since I started work. And I have seen how indeed He had it all planned out. My current job scope is exactly what I was trained for in my previous workplace. Now I am able to add value to the team by asking the right questions to solve problems and even save money for the company — only the Lord could have brought me here and prepared me for this!

Experiencing God’s Goodness After Receiving Christ

My experience with our Lord Jesus started with a chance encounter with Pastor Joseph Prince and his wife Wendy in 2012.

Back then, I was not a believer although my wife was a Christian. But I still remember very much the words Pastor Prince spoke to me that day. He told me that nothing happens by chance and he even prayed over me and my family as my wife was then pregnant. I also remembered Pastor Prince inviting us to come to church.

Due to my past conflicting views on religion, I was convinced that I could not be right with Christ. My wife often asked me to attend church but I always managed to rebuff her request.

In October 2014, my wife began to attend New Creation Church with a good friend of hers. Then in two months’ time, I attended my first church service with my wife as it was her birthday and her friend had to go overseas for work. Since it was her birthday wish for me to attend service with her, I could not say no.

After that service, seeds of Jesus’ love sowed by Pastor Prince three years ago began to sprout. Although my job required me to work on Sundays, things changed within the same week when my colleague volunteered to work every Sunday. How loving of our God to turn things around so I can spend time in His house! Shortly after, I received Christ.

That’s just the beginning of Daddy God’s work in my life. One of my wife’s prayer requests for 2015 was for me to get a job that was interesting, had good opportunities, good pay and God–fearing bosses. And in just a couple of months, I went through three rounds of interview for a management role at a well–known company.

Throughout the interview process, I rested completely in Jesus’ finished work. Before this, I had never breezed through and aced interviews like how I did this time round. And by simply relying on Daddy God’s wisdom and favour, I was offered the job despite my young age and complete lack of experience in management. I later found out that my direct boss is a believer! It’s amazing how Daddy God answers prayers so quickly and precisely!

I had favour with my team at work and my career had also taken a great turn. With this closeness and reliance on our Lord Jesus, my marriage was strengthened too. I knew from then on, it’s not whether I am right for Christ, but Jesus is always ready and right for me.

Two weeks back, I took on one of the most gruelling challenges in my life — to scale Mount Kilimanjaro. I asked many friends to join me but nobody was interested. In the end, I went alone. I booked the climb even though I didn’t have the time and strength to train for it and set off during Singapore’s Jubilee weekend.

I was never convinced I could make it but ever since I was a new creation in Christ, I felt nothing could stop me from scaling this mountain. I already have the victory in Christ.

Throughout the six–day climb, I suffered from dehydration, severe diarrhoea, colds, headaches, extreme tiredness and acute mountain syndrome (AMS). The temperature ranged from 28°C to –20°C. I began to doubt if I could do it but I continued to pray every night, crying out for God’s help, healing and strength.

Just a day before my last push for summit, I realised all my seven crew members were Christians. My tent crew even came to me and told me, “In Jesus’ name, you will reach the summit. Do not worry, Sir!” And I replied with a loud, “Amen!”

It was then that I was reminded how our Daddy Father is so good and always with us by sending His angels to watch over us. Due to my severe diarrhoea, I had to go to the loo every 30 minutes and as a result, I only slept two hours on the day we were due to make the summit. I was extremely tired and also suffered from severe bruising and swelling at my joints.

But I told my crew to bring me up to the summit, knowing that God’s favour surrounds me as with a shield and He would see me all the way up.

After 10 hours of climbing through the night, half a step at a time, I finally scaled the roof of Africa with no grain of effort from myself because I know that throughout the six–day climb, it was God who sustained me to fulfil my dream. All glory and praise to the Lord!

My wife later told me that she prayed for me to have a closer walk with God and indeed, this trip allowed me to “walk with Jesus” like never before.

My marriage and life have been transformed completely. Our family now looks forward to church every Sunday, especially my two–and–a–half–year–old princess who loves to sing, Jesus Is My Best Friend!

Thank you Pastor Prince for sowing seeds of God’s love in my life three years ago. I am now a new creation filled with complete confidence knowing that God’s wisdom, favour and peace are forever with us. All praise, glory and honour to Lord Jesus!

God Had Prepared Our Home!

In 2012, my family and I visited a condominium showflat. It had been selling for two years when we visited it. We really liked the development and it was in an ideal location for my older son should he choose to go to his affiliated secondary school in two years’ time.

We felt the peace of God but I decided not to purchase it as I did not want to put pressure on my son on his choice of secondary school. Also, property prices at that time was at its peak and I thought that it could only go lower.

At the start of 2014, my son decided to go to his affiliated secondary school. I then decided it was time to buy a unit in that condominium. However, the units left were either beyond our budget or not the right size. The developer had even raised the price of these units over the past two years as the development was selling very well and property prices in general had also increased. I blamed myself for not buying the place two years earlier.

In September 2014, a brother from New Creation Church shared with me how God had miraculously blessed him with a new house. After hearing the brother’s testimony, I felt my faith lifted and all condemnation gone. I began to believe that if God could do a miracle for him, He could do one for me too.

In mid-October, I found an agent who was selling a sub-sale unit in that condominium. The demand for the units there was increasing as it was about to be completed. I called the agent and offered him a sum well below the market valuation.

In the natural, I did not expect my offer to be accepted as the buyer could easily sell his unit at a profit in the open market. To my surprise, my offer was accepted! When God opened the door, everything went smoothly. The whole process, from enquiring about the unit to the acceptance of my offer, took less than 48 hours! God also opened the door for me to sell my current house at valuation in less than a month.

After the purchase of my new place was completed, I discovered that the seller was a wealthy man who had bought the unit for his daughter four years ago. For some reason, his daughter did not want the unit so he decided to sell it to me, at a loss!

Our Abba Father knowing the desires of our heart had gone ahead to prepare the place for us. The unit was reserved for my family four years ago, even before my family set foot in the condominium showflat!

Prayer Requests Answered

I wrote down two prayer requests on a Prayer Request & Testimony slip in church on Sunday, 21 September. I asked Abba for a career breakthrough and for a certain Chief Operating Officer (COO) position in New York.

On Monday, 22 September, I was called and shortlisted for the position. There were 12 candidates in Asia competing for it and only three, including myself, were shortlisted.

The other two shortlisted candidates both hold double MBAs, that is, Masters of Business Administration, but knowing that God's favour is on me, I chose not to look at what I lacked. During this time, I was reading Pastor Prince’s book Provision Promises. I had faith in Abba God and looked to Him for abundance of favour.

Praise the Lord, both my prayer requests were answered, and so abundantly. I was selected not just for the role of Chief Operating Officer but also to be President of the company!

Thank You Abba for Your blessings and favour. And thank you Pastor Prince. God is so good to us.

Nine-year-old Son Emerged Champion In International Ballet Competition

My son Kenzo had a desire to dance after watching his sister’s ballet class. Though initially very sceptical, my husband and I decided to follow Pastor Prince’s teaching to allow our children to explore and follow their inclinations within boundaries. So we let our son join the ballet class.

Two months later, in November 2012, Kenzo was invited to join a ballet company which grooms young dancers to compete locally and internationally. He would have to train for at least 16 hours a week, leaving practically no time for tuition, play or family. We held back and only agreed with peace in our hearts after hearing Pastor Prince share that the theme of the year 2013 was the Key of David and that God will open and shut the right doors for our good.

Just like any competitive sport, training was both physically and mentally exhausting for Kenzo. His school results started to dip. We questioned ourselves many times but were reminded that our job was to train him and leave everything else to Daddy God.

In August 2013, Kenzo competed in Hong Kong, came in second and was even invited to perform at the gala night. One month later, he won his first gold medal in Singapore. It was an amazing experience of Daddy God’s favour!

This year 2014, the year of greater glory, Kenzo transferred to a new school which was near home. By God’s grace and favour, he had very caring and supportive teachers who helped him to settle in with ease. He even scored three Band Ones, the top grading, for his exams.

And in June 2014, he received an honourable mention at a competition in Boston, the United States. Though Kenzo was rather disappointed at not placing better, we thanked Daddy God for the experience and the opportunity to spend family time together in Disneyland.

In August 2014, he was the only foreigner who competed in a junior ballet competition in Fukuoka, Japan. We went resting in the Lord with no expectations and we could hardly believe the results. Daddy God placed nine-year-old Kenzo first among 120 other awesome Japanese dancers aged eight to 12. It was truly the favour and grace of Almighty God!

I would like to thank Rock Kidz, the children’s ministry, for raising faith-filled, praying kids. Kenzo would pray to remain calm and to finish his dance without mistakes before he go on stage for his competitions. Our sincere appreciation goes to the youth ministry group, DARE, for the recent parenting seminar that reminded us that our most important role is to be praying parents.

And thank you, Pastor Prince, for your awesome ministry that is blessing and impacting countless families including mine!

Performing Well Academically After Knowing Grace

When I was in primary school, I was in the EM3 stream, which was for students who performed poorly academically. Even when I enter into secondary school, I was also in the last class in school.

During those days, my teachers would not call me by my name, Rebecca. Instead, they would call me “EM3 student” or “technical student”. My friends and my parents would also say that I was dumb and stupid!

But, praise the Lord, I became a believer at the age of 18. Unfortunately, back then, I was always trusting in my own strength and wisdom, rather than in Jesus. My life was completely under law and not grace.

Two years later, I came across Pastor Prince’s teachings on grace where I have learnt not to lean on my own understanding but rest in Jesus.

Since then, I managed to enter into a polytechnic after graduating from ITE. During my polytechnic examinations, I kept listening to Pastor Prince’s sermons to strengthen myself. And praise the Lord, when the results were out, I received all As for my final semester! On top of that, I even got into the Director’s list. Now, I am qualified to enter into a local university. There is no more condemnation but full of my heavenly Father’s undeserved favour and grace!

Becoming Company’s Top Producer Through Grace

I am a permanent resident in Singapore and have been attending New Creation Church for six years.

I had been working as a realtor with the same agency for the past five years and switching agencies had never been part of my plan. To me, my job as a resale realtor was very independent, with not much dealings with the agency.

But in early 2013, I experienced a high level of boredom. I felt stuck and was eager to change. At that time, one of the agents whom I had worked with two years back, approached me and shared how his income had drastically increased after switching to a new agency and was given an opportunity to launch new projects. He then asked me to join him and I agreed without much hesitation.

Throughout the year, people kept saying that the property market was poor and transaction volume was low. I was one of the pessimistic people who kept going into the office to keep my sales up.

One day while in the office, I saw pictures of the company’s Top Producer on the noticeboard and I whispered to myself that I too, would like to be the Top Producer one day.

Not so long after, I joined the marketing team for a new project launch. That was my first marketing project and I was still learning the ropes.

During the preview period, I collected five blank cheques from clients who had made their bookings in advance. But I was told not to keep my hopes too high as my colleague had experienced having nine advanced bookings previously but none materialised. Nonetheless, somehow I just believed that I could convert them into actual transactions.

Finally, the launch date arrived, and I realised I was the only newbie. I was extremely nervous and lost whereas everyone else seemed to know what they were doing.

However, to everyone’s amazement, I managed to sell four units! Wasn’t God good?

I believe it all happened because of God's grace. How can a newbie like me sell more units than those who had been in the marketing line for so long?

And yes, despite the lull property market, I was named the Top Producer and Top Transactor for that particular project!

Looking back, it was truly because God's grace had opened the door for me. And He is faithful enough to answer every single prayer request that I make.

Record-Breaking Business Performance

I run a professional drum performance business which has been in operations for four years now. God has blessed this business steadily and we even became the most hired group in Singapore. Down through the years, we saw an increase in the number of professionally-paid performances for numerous corporate, private and government events.

Then early in the year 2013, Pastor Prince preached a sermon on how Israel was experiencing an unprecedented amount of rainfall. I rejoiced at His Word because Pastor Prince went on to explain that we, the spiritual Israel, would also experience His abundance. I took His Word seriously and in my heart, I asked The Lord to allow me to experience it.

True enough, during the lull period from January to June 2013, we had a record increase in the number of shows performed! And by the end of the year, we had a whopping record of 138 professionally-paid drum performances which was equivalent to an approximate one performance in every 2.6 days!

Praise Jesus, that's an amazing 42 per cent increase from our highest record of 97 shows in 2012 which I thought was already fantastic for a drum group! God can certainly outdo your highest records!

I really want to give thanks to the Lord for His favour and I am blessed to be part of God's spiritual Israel at New Creation Church.

I am truly awaiting and looking forward to God's greater blessings in 2014! Thank You Jesus!

God Took Care Of Her Studies While She Served Him

I am a second-year Junior College student and I play the cello. When I was preparing for my preliminary examinations this year, Karen from the Worship Ministry asked me to serve in a special song item to mark Israel's Rosh Hashanah. I was assigned to play Schindler's List and Har Tikvah with a couple of other musicians. I was slightly hesitant at first, as I was worried that the rehearsals and performing for all four English services would affect my preparation for my examinations.

However, Schindler's List is one of my favourite songs and deep down inside, I really wanted to serve God. After I prayed about it, I agreed to serve. I believed that God would definitely take care of my examinations and help me study efficiently while I serve Him.

I had a rehearsal prior to seven examination papers, and another rehearsal plus the actual performance before another series of eight papers. On top of that, I also had to practise playing the music on my own. There were times when I felt worried because my classmates clearly had much more time to study than me. I prayed about it and cast my cares to the Lord.

On the day of the performance, Karen thanked me for serving and told me that God said in His Word that those who bless Israel will be blessed. I said Amen to that and believed that indeed God will bless me more abundantly than I could even imagine. The performance came and went, and I had a great time. I even took a photo with Bob Fitts!

After the performance, I continued to study for my examinations in a relaxed manner. The papers were not very easy. I knew that I had made some careless mistakes and I could have written a better answer for some questions. Nevertheless, I thanked God for being there for me. Pastor Benjamin preached during one of our Arrow services that God has a great plan for us and I believed it. I also prayed that my grades will be a result of His abundant grace and not my self-effort. When the results were out, I scored straight, solid ‘A’s for all my subjects! This would not have been possible without God. Praise the Lord!

God Super Exceeded Her Expectations

Last August, I was transferred to my current unit with a verbal agreement from my boss from that department that I would be promoted as part of my new posting. However, the promotion did not take place and I was disappointed.

Then, at the beginning of 2010, Pastor Prince shared that 2010 would be a year of restful increase. I focused on being at rest and drew strength from the Lord as my job is anything but restful!

Despite the stress and worries from my job, God continued to give me His supreme peace and grace to find solutions in difficult situations. In March 2010, I received a very good ranking in my company and was blessed with a good bonus and a big pay raise that was far beyond my expectations. Shortly after, I received news that I had been promoted. All glory to God! I know that I had found favour in my boss’ eyes because God's hand is on me.

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for teaching us how to live without worries as children of the Most High.

Promoted Beyond Qualifications!

I have been desperately seeking a job for the past 10 months but to no avail. Although I have a few years of working experience in my line of work, I only have GCE "O" Levels education. Despite attending more than 10 interviews, I never got a job.

During an interview once, I was ridiculed by the interviewer who said that he would rather employ a fresh graduate as I only have GCE “O” Levels education. There were also a few instances where the interviewers asked me to consider accepting a huge pay cut in return for an opportunity to prove my capabilities and knowledge. Although I agreed, no job offer came my way.

As a result, I kept blaming myself for only graduating with GCE “O” Levels. I became isolated and cold as I was fearful of being mocked and ridiculed at. I was on the verge of giving up when I chanced upon a sermon video clip. In it, Pastor Prince encouraged believers to speak out what they believe in Christ. Through the message, it felt like the Lord Jesus was telling me not to give up. I kept replaying and watching the same video.

Suddenly, I felt overwhelming peace entering my body, mind and soul. For the first time in my life, I felt peace and assurance that Jesus heard my prayers and that He has a plan for me. Words cannot explain how I felt.

Pastor Prince also said in one of his sermons that when we meditate on God’s Word, we will speak the truth and His Word will become real and powerful in our lives. From then on, I just believed and kept proclaiming that I have already received the Lord’s grace and guidance.

Within two weeks, miracles started to happen. I received a call from a head-hunter informing me of an interview for a managerial position. Prior to the interview, I continued to pray and proclaim that the interview would be a successful one.

After the first interview, I was scheduled for another two interviews despite not meeting the company’s prerequisite of a basic degree. By the end of two weeks, I received a call from the head-hunter. Instead of offering me the managerial position I had applied, I was given the role of Assistant Vice-President! The company also decided that there was no need for a pay cut! Praise the Lord!

Today, I am happily working in this company. It happens to be one of the top 10 companies in Singapore. My colleagues also get together every fortnightly to pray for one another and to give praise to our Lord Jesus!

Praise the Lord for His grace and mercy!

Unmerited Promotion

I started work in my current company in March 2012 and made a lot mistakes. Amazingly, my boss never gave up on me. I thought that some of the mistakes I made would have resulted in me being sacked, so I politely sent him my resignation.

Instead, my boss placed me in a higher position and I am now working directly under him. I never thought this promotion would come two months into my new job! Due to the promotion, I was transferred to a marketing role. To my amazement, a client sealed a huge business deal with us not long after! Hallelujah! It is truly God’s unmerited favour upon my life and God’s wisdom at work in my job.

Indeed, right believing produces right living. I am thankful for pastors like Pastor Joseph Prince who shares nothing but the truth of our Lord Jesus Christ. The gospel of grace has dramatically transformed my life. Today, my life continues to be transformed and my mind is less of a battlefield. I live every day with more peace and joy! All glory and praises to our Lord Jesus Christ! Amen!

Fruitful Increase

2010 was truly a year full of restful increase. The company I was working for didn’t give me a huge increment, but I didn’t have to work very hard and rarely worked overtime. I had a lot of maternity leave to clear, which meant that I was working just four days a week.

When I started looking for a new job, I wanted a position of influence and got an offer in early May 2010. But I didn’t feel the peace to accept the offer and was led by the Lord to wait.

A few months later, I was retrenched due to restructuring. It was a blessing in disguise. If I’d taken the earlier offer, I would have missed out on my retrenchment package and other payments such as notice period and my outstanding maternity leave, which would add up to almost five months of my basic pay.

By early July, I’d received three more job offers. I prayed about each position, but again didn’t have peace to accept any of them. It was not an easy decision as I was tired of going for interviews. But I believed that God sees my future and He knows best. So, I decided to wait for the right offer.

At the end of July, I received an offer from an overseas company. At first, I wasn’t keen as I felt the position was rather junior and the company quite small. They offered me a 23 per cent pay raise which my recruitment agent told me, was the best deal he’d seen all year.

The timing was perfect. This job provided me the seed to sow for Miracle Seed Sunday on 22 August 2010. My first few weeks in the company were really challenging. I faced many issues and felt overwhelmed, but God reassured me that as long as I continued to trust in Him, I would see miracles.

After three months in the company, I still felt unsettled and felt more miserable than I was when I first joined. But I continued to believe God for my miracle.

Shortly after, I got a call from another company asking if I was interested in a position even though I didn’t apply for it. I went for two rounds of interviews and got the job. They gave me a further salary increase including family benefits.

There were probably many more capable candidates with more experience, and yet they chose me! It is just God’s favour on me and my family.

We made a trip to Israel in 2011, and during the trip, God impressed upon me to believe Him for great things. I prayed for financial freedom and to get a promotion this year, 2012.

At first, with so many things going on in the office, it was like what Pastor Prince had said about 2012 being a time of famine. But pastor also shared from the Word that the children of God will still bear much fruits even in a time of famine.

In March 2012, I received news that I won a global award for driving a turnaround in employee engagement and satisfaction while improving efficiency, control and team performance.

Our company was on a tight budget but I received a merit increase which was 50 per cent higher than average. In April 2012, my bonus amount came up to exactly what I had asked for in December 2011. Again, God was good and faithful.

I know that God’s goodness does not end here. As we come to the end of 2012, I am believing Jesus for a great and blessed 2013!

Thank you Pastor Prince for sharing the Word each week, I look forward to hearing you preach each Sunday.

New Year's Prayer Requests Answered

I’ve been attending New Creation Church for more than a year and I’m excited to share how the grace of God never fails to chase after me.

During New Year 2012 service, we were asked to come to God with three prayer requests. My first request was that I wanted to study for a Master’s Degree.

I was then in my final year of university and had applied for jobs along with my post-graduate applications. I managed to get into the final six to be shortlisted for a management associate program of an international company. The other five candidates were from local universities which were more established, so in my mind, I thought I had no chance.

Shortly after my final interview, I received an email informing me that I was rejected. It was really not a pleasant feeling but I believed that God had something better in store for me.

Later that day, I was overjoyed to receive an email from the London School of Economics informing me I’d been accepted for a Masters Course in Accounting and Finance. Praise the Lord! He placed me in one of the top schools in the world!

My second request was for the health of my parents, which was answered right away! My father came back with a clean bill of health from his specialist who previously suspected he had a cyst or stones in his kidney.

My last request was for emotional healing. After being in a relationship for four years, I went through a difficult break-up. I was an emotional disaster then and lost 15kg in three weeks! During this period, I couldn't see how good God was, but I still believed He was good.

I got to know the love of God the Father and the FINISHED work of Christ through the messages preached every Sunday. I began to realise that God never ceased to love me, and would only want good things to happen to me. I also began to learn that I have access to unmerited favour through Pastor Prince’s Christ-centred messages.

I want to thank God for Pastor Prince’s teachings; they have enabled me to see that when I put Jesus at the centre of my life, everything else will fall into place. I am currently in London studying this course that I put forth to God and feel blessed to be part of the New Creation family.

No Stress, Just Blessed!

When I was a student, I faced heavy stress during my 'O' level examinations. I battled poor grades and even thoughts of suicide. I never told anyone about the intense loneliness and desperation I felt during the night.

Unbeknown to me, Daddy God, through His grace, brought my mother to New Creation Church and she came home proclaiming the gospel of grace.

Now, I've been a Christian since young, but had never been exposed to God's grace. Hearing Pastor Prince’s teachings filled me with a wondrous sense of God's love and freed me from the bondage of depression! I faced my next examinations fearlessly, knowing I was covered with His grace and favour. I did well enough to enter the polytechnic course of my choice, and although I was not the best of students, by His grace, I gained acceptance into a local university!

Just before graduating, a company I used to work for contacted me with a job offer. It was awesome to be back and I really enjoyed working with my ex-colleagues. But the job scope was drastically different from what I’d been studying. I spoke to Daddy God about this dilemma — I felt I wasn't fully utilising my years of study, and wondered if I should seek out another opportunity.

I sent out résumés, but wasn’t particularly interested in any job. My colleagues were also very supportive and a great source of encouragement. A few months later, I received a call asking if I was still available. My new job offer came as a shock; Daddy God increased my salary substantially above what I had expected!

I really thank God for unveiling the gospel of grace to Pastor Prince and allowing him to touch so many precious lives around the world.

All praise to Daddy God, He is incredibly GOOD all the time!!!

Victory Through Jesus’ Blood Covering

My son has refractory epilepsy and suffers from uncontrolled seizures almost every day. Because of the numerous seizures and the adverse cognitive and behavioural effects of his medication, he has learning, social and behavioural difficulties. After assessments in March 2012, the psychologist said my son’s overall intellectual ability falls in the extremely low range (around 50). 

My son often missed school and had no extra tuition. We did not teach him very much at home as we did not want to give him extra stress. The last time he passed an exam was in Primary One when he passed his math, but he consistently couldn’t pass his English exams.

Just before my son’s PSLE exams, I was stressed about how he would fare when I suddenly had a vision of blood and gold. I thought about this and what came to me was the revelation that the blood of Jesus will cover my son completely and gold meant that he will emerge victorious through Jesus Christ! I felt at peace after that and declared God's favour over him daily.

During his exams, I gave my son a small cross to put in his pencil case. I wanted to point him to Jesus and encouraged him look to the Lord whenever he had any difficulty. My son told me that he took out the cross to look at it during his first paper whenever he didn’t know what to write.  At first, I was worried that he had spent the whole time looking at the cross and not concentrating on the paper. He even had a big seizure before his Science paper.

My husband is not a believer yet, so I was glad when Pastor Prince recently shared that a mother can also take over as the spiritual head of the family. So, I just continued to declare God’s favour over our son and asked him to look at the cross whenever he wanted to.

Truly, with God, all things are possible! My son passed his PSLE exams with an aggregate score of 129. To many, this is a low score but for me, it was a miracle.

All glory to Jesus and thank you very much Pastor Prince, for all your teachings.

Grace “Entry”

Every year when my Permanent Resident (PR) entry permit expiry date drew near, I would be depressed because I had to submit my renewal forms. I would fear and worry all the time while waiting to hear if my application was approved or rejected.

But things started to change earlier this year when Pastor Prince announced that the theme for the year 2012 would be unceasing fruitfulness and quoted the Word from 
Jeremiah 17:7–8.

Pastor Prince often reminds us to keep meditating, feeding on God's Word and praying in tongues. I took hold of what he shared and meditated on the verses from Jeremiah 17 and also Psalm 23. I started to confess every day that I am God's beloved, who is highly favoured and deeply loved by our Abba Father and also partake of the Holy Communion.

Recently, I submitted the renewal for my PR entry permit. But this time, I didn't feel depressed. I remembered Pastor Prince had shared that when we are waiting for the answer to something and we’re worried about it, we can speak the blood of Jesus into our situation.

I pleaded the blood of Jesus over myself, prayed in tongues, partook of the Holy Communion, rested in Jesus' finished work and believed that I would be granted a two-year entry permit. I kept confessing that He who promises is faithful and if God is for us, who can be against us.

When the notification arrived, I just couldn't believe my eyes. I was granted a five-year entry permit!

Praise be to God. He is a good God. He answered my prayers exceedingly abundantly above all I ask or think.

Job Blessing Before Graduation

Recently, Pastor Prince preached a sermon titled, None Of Us, All Of Christ, and in it, you encouraged people who were having interviews in the coming week. That moment, I knew that the Word was for me because I had an interview the following Thursday. It was a job I really wanted. Pastor Prince also mentioned that God would supply me with the words to say.

I was really excited and I felt really loved by my heavenly Abba Father. During the week before my interview, a friend warned me about the unpleasant interviewer. As I was preparing for the interview, I just kept recalling what you shared in your sermon.

I am easily nervous but during that interview, I was unexpectedly calm and peaceful even after every negative reply from the interviewer. In fact, what I had prepared to say in the interview didn’t help me much. Words to every question just flowed out of my mouth. This all goes to show that I cannot, but He can! Moreover, after the interview, I felt very joyful!

While waiting for the organisation’s reply, I doubted, but thanked God that He used people around me to remind me of His goodness and to focus on Him. On 6 November 2012, I received an email from the organisation with a job offer upon my graduation!

Due to the bleak outlook of the economy, many of my friends were worried about getting a job upon graduation. I had asked the Lord for a job before my graduation, but now He has over supplied me with one that has good working hours and starting pay. I am truly thankful for His goodness and love towards me.

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for preaching the truth and for being a wonderful blessing to me and my family!

Liability Cleared!

This year has been the most stressful year in my entire working career. At the beginning of 2012, I listened to the sermon Pastor Prince preached on unceasing fruitfulness. It seemed relevant to my business then as we had just started a new project to supply materials to a particular client who was also a friend. However, just after Chinese New Year, my business partner had a heated discussion with this client, resulting in a cancellation of his orders with us.

The total value of the goods was estimated to be a few million dollars and I could not afford to write off this huge debt. We were stuck with a huge inventory. My stress levels were maxed out and no words could express how bad our situation was. To make matters worse, prices were falling and there was little demand for our goods.

Although I had the habit of listening to Pastor Prince's sermons on my way to and from work, I was still very worried and stressed. I kept wondering how I was going to recover this loss. I also had no one to turn to. No words could express how tormented I felt! Thankfully, I knew I had Jesus and He was the ONLY one who could help me. Slowly, Pastor Prince's sermons calmed me, and I found the peace and began resting in Jesus’ promises.

The distributor started to exert pressure on us to clear the inventory. So, we took what we could and sold the remainder at a huge loss. We were also required to clear the remaining inventory which still amounted to a huge amount. Suddenly, I was forced to face a showdown with the distributor. I am not a good negotiator and wondered how I would ever be able to solve this huge problem! 

Through it all, I kept meditating on Psalm 23: “Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me”. I continued to mutter I shall NOT FEAR... I shall NOT FEAR.

When the distributor finally came to meet me, I was prepared for the worst. Amazingly, the distributor was very understanding. I was taken aback and decided to let Jesus do all the work! I remembered that Jesus is my redeemer, my heavenly Boaz. Truly, NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE WITH JESUS! My liability and legal obligations were nullified!

Even with such little faith, He saved me from a potentially huge loss and even gave me some profit! T hank you Pastor Prince for constantly teaching us and revealing to us our Lord Jesus, and the work He has done for us at the cross!

Winner Of Style: Weddings Beautiful Couple 2010 Contest

In March 2010, my wife, Berinda, and I submitted our application to join the Style: Weddings Beautiful Couple contest. By August, we did not receive any news from the organisers and thought that the competition was over. In September, we were notified that we were shortlisted for the contest. We were excited because we knew that God had a hand in it. I was supposed to go overseas for a work trip in October but my boss pushed my departure date to November. If not, I would not have been able to take part in the contest.

During the semi-finals, we had to go through an interview. The interviewer revealed that the prize was $15,000 worth of jewellery and vouchers. When I heard that, my heart rejoiced. I was not able to afford jewellery for Berinda during our wedding but now, I know that our heavenly Father is personally giving Berinda her wedding gift.

On 31 October 2010, we went for the finals. We were couple number five — the number of grace! During the styling session, none of the hairstylists wanted to attend to Berinda as she had short hair. In the end, the owner of the salon personally styled Berinda’s hair! Before it was our turn to go on stage, Berinda suggested that we pray. We prayed that every word that came out of our mouths would be guided by the Holy Spirit, revealing the beauty of Jesus to the audience.

On stage, we were asked to choose a random question from a fishbowl. Our question was, "How do you intend to keep the relationship strong after you're married?" I answered, "We love because God first loved us. And God is love. So I told Berinda that I will never love her out of my own effort, but I will only love her with the love of God. And when I look to God, it is He who gives me the strength to love Berinda." The microphone was then passed to Berinda. She expressed that she will not look to me for happiness, but her eyes will always be fixed on God, and that putting God in the centre of our relationship will make us a stronger couple. When we went offstage, I kept thinking that perhaps we should have said something more practical. But God's peace assured me that it was okay.

When it was time to reveal the winning couple, the judges came up and commented that they were eloquent, had chemistry and were very comfortable with each other. To our delight, Berinda and I won the competition! After the competition, one of the organisers shared with us that they almost did not select us for the semi-finals because we were married a little longer than the rest, but they kept coming back to our pictures and had to meet us. That was another confirmation that it was God who orchestrated the whole event. This is truly a year of restful increase. All glory to Jesus!

Position Divinely Restored

I am a senior broker in a property investment company and have been attending New Creation Church for the past 10 months. After not closing any deals for two months, I was demoted to junior broker. I wasn’t even doing very well as a junior broker, but I didn’t feel particularly stressed and felt the need to pray about it.

One Sunday, Pastor Prince shared about moving by grace in the Holy Spirit’s gifts and I felt extremely blessed for no reason! After church service that day, I was compelled to head to the Prayer And Healing Room to ask a leader to pray over my career. The leader was glad to stand in faith with me and he said that the Lord had great plans for me. I left service feeling extremely refreshed and happy.

The next day, the Managing Director called me to his room and offered me and a few other colleagues the senior broker position. The company was closing down the junior broker department and only a few of us were asked to stay!

I give thanks to God, knowing that it was His hands that He gave me this opportunity again!

From F9 To A1

Ever since I was in Secondary Three, I have never passed my Elementary Mathematics (E Maths) subject.

No matter how much I studied or how many math formulas I remembered, I would still fail the tests. During my end of year examinations last year, I scored quite badly. In fact, I got an F9 for my results! I felt demoralised and defeated. I also felt discouraged because I thought that God never heard my prayers.

However, since 2012 started, I began choosing a verse from the Bible every week and I would meditate on it each week. The verses really helped me as some of them really spoke to the situation that I was in at that point in time. I also started reading the Bible and discovered many new and precious revelations!

Last month, I had two Math tests and I decided to try something new. After all, it was a new year, so I wanted to try a new method! While I would normally study late into the night, I decided to read my Bible and only spent 45 minutes studying for the test. I meditated on Psalm 34:4 which said, “I sought the Lord, and He heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.” What an encouragement it was to me!

Lo and behold, I got the highest mark in class for my first test! Miraculously, I achieved an A1 and this was a miracle for someone like me who has always been the bottom in class for Maths!

Two weeks later, I sat for another test and meditated on Psalm 49:3 knowing that “my mouth shall speak wisdom, and the meditation of my heart shall give understanding”. I was also sceptical about scoring well as I didn’t believe that I could score well twice! I had some difficulties answering certain questions. But when the results came back, I scored an even higher A1! Praise the Lord!

It is a miracle to me and I am excited to see what else the Lord has in store for me! I know that my results would not be any different for my upcoming mid-year, preliminary and GCE “O” level examinations either! Amen!

Family & Relationships

Lost relationship restored after 11 years

I had listened to and agreed with the word of the year from the Lord about kairos timing that Pastor Prince shared at the beginning of 2023. However, I almost forgot about it until I was meditating on the amazing goodness of God and the recent miracle He gave me. 

In 2012, I moved away from a family that had been a strong Christian influence in my life and were almost like parents to me. We had misunderstandings and lost our close connection for the last 11 years. I had been part of their family for 10 years and longed for that relationship to be restored. 

I have made many attempts to reach out over the years with no success. Then, just recently, I brought to the Lord my desire to reconnect with them via a phone call and for our relationship to be mended. I also told Him how much I missed them. Without any knowledge of their whereabouts and seemingly out of the blue, they contacted me a few days ago and said they were passing through my state on a road trip and wanted to stop by for a visit. 

It blew my mind how kind the Lord was to over-answer my prayers. I was able to have them over for dinner and meet my husband and three kids, whom they’d never met before. He did way better than just a phone call, and this revealed His love to me all over again. Thank You, Jesus!

Left adulterous lifestyle and marriage restored

I grew up in a Christian family and have attended church since childhood. However, that did not stop me from getting into pornography and masturbation since I was nine. For close to 40 years, I was bound by it.

This greatly affected my marriage and gradually led me to commit adultery. I tried to hide my sin and lived a double life. But after about a year or so, the weight of sin and guilt was so great that I wanted to end my life. I flew to a nearby country without my wife’s knowing, with plans to take my life.

As my “final confession”, I texted my wife when I was away and confessed my infidelity. It devastated her, but she still encouraged me to return to God and return home so we could discuss things. I refused to, as I felt I could no longer face her and God.

In the hotel room one night, God led me to watch messages about His grace, and I began to cry and think of how I had let God and my wife down.

I texted my wife the following day and told her I would return home. I was prepared for her to ask for a divorce, but I thank God she was willing to forgive me.

Back in Singapore, I committed to being accountable to a group of close brothers and my family. My wife and I also attended counselling sessions.

We kept listening to the words of grace from New Creation Church. I thank God for the constant reminder that we are to look to Jesus and not ourselves, and that His grace is more than enough for us.

That year, we also went on an Israel trip with the church. The pastor in charge of the group knew of our situation and kept encouraging us. We had the opportunity to renew our vows at the Garden Tomb, and the pastor and his wife also prayed over us.

It has been four years since then, and I thank God that He has restored our marriage to greater glory.

Today, my wife and I enjoy doing activities together, and I’m constantly reminded of how blessed I am to have my wife. I’ve also been set free from my 40-year bondage to pornography and masturbation. Praise the Lord!

Thank you, Pastor Prince and New Creation Church, for constantly revealing Jesus to us!

Boosting Daughter’s Growth Through Speaking

When my daughter, Ella, was born, she was a big baby in the 98-percentile at four kilograms. It was a glorious natural birth, as the delivery took only 55 minutes. Since my wife was also quite small in stature, the gynaecologist was amazed and called it a “miracle” birth.

However, in the course of the next six months, due to our busy working arrangements and irregular feeding, Ella's height and weight progressed really slowly. Very soon, she dropped from the 98-percentile to the 15-percentile. She was not growing well, and we felt extremely condemned. We felt that we were to blame for “stunting” our little baby's growth.

At that time, I had just resumed serving at the church’s youth ministry, The Zone. It was that Sunday when I bumped into a fellow server who was hanging out with his youths and I decided to join them.

One of his youths was a particular girl whom my wife and I had gotten to know some years ago on our trip to Israel. She and her family were on the same tour bus as us and I remembered their parents, who were quite short in stature. Something caught my attention that day. I realised that their son is tall and big, and now their daughter is also tall. They were very unlike their parents.

That was when I asked the daughter, why the strange difference between them and their parents. She then shared that her parents had prayed and spoken over them since they were very young. I was encouraged, and when I returned home, I started speaking over my daughter, that she would eat and grow well.

Almost two years have come and gone. Our daughter, Ella, is now back in the 80-percentile in height, and almost the 90-percentile in weight. We speak over her every morning and night.

The Lord is so faithful. When she did not sleep enough, we would include that into our prayers, and she started sleeping more in the day. When her language learning was behind her peers, we prayed, and in almost the same day, she was able to speak a coherent sentence. When she didn't like to make friends with children younger than her, we prayed and spoke over her as well. Now, she doesn't mind hugging and shaking hands with children she meets for the first time.

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for teaching us to speak forth what we want to see in our lives. Praise the Lord!

Family business prospering in pandemic

I used to be a very passionate Christian. However, all that changed after I graduated from university and took over my family business more than 10 years ago.

The industry we are in is very competitive and highly regulated. Our company was struggling, and we were in debt. My family had to sell away properties, and I had no savings after slogging for 10 years. I got bitter towards my family, especially when I compared myself with my friends.

Some years back, a close Christian colleague, who attends New Creation Church, gave me Pastor Prince's book "The Prayer of Protection". However, I never touched the book. Then, one day I felt a tugging on my heart to read it. I also started listening to Pastor Prince's sermons, which changed my perspective of God and my life. I began to see Him moving in my family business and family life. I felt God telling me that He would restore the years I have lost—my finances, time, relationships, and health.

Though things were still challenging, I felt the Lord telling me that I may walk through the fire, but I will not be harmed. I also started reading the book "Live The Let-Go Life" by Pastor Prince. Little did I know that the pandemic would hit and have a big impact on our business. I remember listening to a sermon where Pastor Prince prayed and encouraged the people to be still and know He is God. He also mentioned that God's favour would cause good things to happen to us in an instant.

I held on to this prayer and the sharing in the "Live The Let-Go Life" book by Pastor Prince. I also started to tune in to New Creation Church's online services. In January 2022, Pastor Prince shared that it was The Year Of Rest And Acceleration. I felt that God was speaking to me, as the message tied in with living a let-go life. Hence, I decided to live every day resting in Him and not using my efforts.

During the pandemic, there were many businesses which wound up. However, God saw us through the fire, and we were not harmed. Not only did God sustain our business through government grants, but we also had business partners knocking on our doors.

At the end of 2022, our revenue and cash flow were even more than in pre-pandemic times. I even managed to bring in some side income for myself! Things happened so quickly in the year that I'm amazed. I see blessings all around me and sweet wine pouring off our mountains and hills. Thank You, Jesus. Thank you, Pastor Prince and the New Creation Church team, for sharing the gospel of grace and always pointing us to Jesus.

Delivered from breast cancer after her name was called out during service

In October 2020, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. Devastated by the news, I cried there and then. I didn’t want to die. I was 50 years old, and I was so looking forward to enjoying a wonderful retirement life. This couldn’t be happening to me. It shook me to the core. My mind refused to accept it, and I told myself again and again that I am going to live to glorify God.

When I lived in Singapore, I had been attending New Creation Church, but since returning to Malaysia, I had not been attending any church service. One day, I met a sister who told me to attend New Creation Church’s online service.

At that time, I did not know about the online service. So I quickly tuned in, praying and hoping that one day, my condition would be called out, and God would heal me.

Three weeks later, on 15 November 2020, towards the end of the service, Pastor Prince said that there was someone who has a tumour in her body and has been praying for God to heal her, and the person’s name is Jennifer! That’s my name! My jaw dropped. I was praying that he would call out a patient with breast cancer, but I didn’t expect to hear my name. I felt a great whoosh from my head to toes as if God sent fire through my body. I was shaking even as I was holding my phone to record Pastor Prince’s prophetic prayer for me. I believe God had healed me and also set me free from my fear.

I went for a surgery to remove my tumour and after that, all my tests would come back clear. I continued to go for treatment over the next 18 months, partaking of the holy Communion every time. Throughout the treatment, I experienced no side effects. I went for radiotherapy 25 times without having my skin burnt! All my tests consistently produced a clean report. Today, I am delivered from cancer.

Throughout the ordeal, I would often watch the video where Pastor Prince called out my name. I even shared it with other cancer patients to encourage them, to let them know that God knows them by name too. And most importantly, I shared it with my dad, who was not a believer then. Today, I am delivered from cancer and my dad has also received his salvation. Hallelujah! Thank you, Pastor Prince!

Better Than Wine

I had been struggling with depression, addiction, and fear since young. Though I am a believer, I was taught a mixture of law and grace. No matter how hard I tried to obey God’s commandments, I would fail again and again. I felt disqualified as a Christian. All the wrong beliefs also affected my marriage.

For 13 years, I kept having conflicts with my wife. One day, I left home for good and even contemplated divorcing my wife. But during this period, God spoke to me through Pastor Prince’s sermons.

I began to believe that I am a royal priesthood and a joint-heir of God with Christ. I also learnt that God’s love for me will never change no matter what I do. I started to declare that I am righteous in Christ, and stopped saying things that went against what Jesus did for me on the cross. Unconsciously, I was set free from depression, addiction, and fear!

One day, a video popped up on my phone. It was a message by Pastor Prince titled, The Year Of The Latter Rain. I clicked and watched the sermon, and when I saw a picture of a family reunion, I started to look forward to experiencing a miracle in my marriage. It seemed incredible but two days later, my wife and I met up.

That was in January 2022 and since then, we saw an acceleration of a harvest in our relationship. After 14 months of separation, our hearts were renewed. God didn’t fix my marriage, but give me a better one, like Jesus turning water into wine. This is the first time we feel peace, love and joy in our marriage. We are falling in love again! Everything seems incredible and like a dream. Thank you, Jesus!

Healed of polycystic ovary syndrome and gave birth to second-born healthily

After giving birth to my firstborn in 2019, my doctor found out that I actually had polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), a condition in which the ovaries produce an abnormal amount of androgens. Due to this, the gynaecologist told me and my husband that it would be very hard for us to have another baby.

It got me troubled for a while. However, there was also a peace within me. I believed that if God could do it the first time, then it is possible for Him to do it again.

At the end of the last year, I penned down my prayer requests on my Three Prayer Requests card. One of them was to have another baby in 2021. As Pastor Prince prayed over our prayer requests, I felt assured and knew that God could and would make it happen.

True enough, I found out that I was pregnant a few weeks later and in September, I gave birth to my second baby! At our post-partum check-up, my doctor also confirmed that I am completely healed of PCOS. Thank You, Jesus!

Healed of genital warts after partaking of the holy Communion

About one and a half years ago, I was diagnosed with genital warts. I tried applying topical creams prescribed by the doctor, but to no avail. I also went through painful treatments to freeze the warts, but they kept coming back. The condition affected my confidence and marriage, and I was devasted. 

One day, as I was listening to Pastor Prince’s preaching, I heard him say that when we partake of the holy Communion, we ought to discern the Lord’s body. He also went on to say that we can partake of the Lord’s Supper every day. 

That statement spoke to me and I started partaking of the holy Communion daily. I would proclaim the finished work of our Lord Jesus Christ, and confess that as He is, so am I. I would also declare that by His stripes, I am healed. 

After I started doing so, the first thing that I experienced was a greater sense of peace. I stopped worrying and was confident that the Lord would take care of my situation. 

Gradually, the genital warts started to disappear. Today, I am happy to share that I am completely free from genital warts! I also thank God for restoring my marriage. Praise the Lord!

Marriage Turned Around For Good

I was raised in a family where from a young age, we were told that when we sin, we would suffer retribution. Our family was not at peace and my parents would quarrel almost every week. The fights would often escalate and involve threats of violence from both parties. As a child, I was traumatised.

When I grew older, I married my husband who had a terrible temper. I felt alone in my marriage as my husband was often not present and at times, he would only return home in the wee hours of the morning. At times, I even felt depressed and suicidal.

One day, I met up with my best friend who had just started bringing her children to church, and I felt prompted to accompany her to church with my children. That Sunday, before heading out, my husband and I had a huge quarrel about going to church. As I drove off, I received a text message from him and to my surprise, my husband wanted to attend church with me!

In 2013, we began attending New Creation Church regularly. At the beginning, my husband and I would still get into fights. However, in one of my quiet times with the Lord, I was prompted to pray for my husband.

The Lord showed me that He is the third party in our relationship. When we focus on the Lord and grow in our relationship with Him, our relationship with our spouses would also become closer.

I also listened to Pastor Prince’s teachings and applied them to my life. Then, miracles started to happen in our marriage. I realised that my husband’s hardened heart became softer over time. I began to believe that what happened to my parents would not happen to me, because the Lord loves me.

Today, my husband and I are happily married and constantly working with each other to raise our children. Praise the Lord for His wisdom. Thank you, Pastor Prince, and New Creation Church!

18-year-old no longer short-tempered after getting saved

I am an 18-year-old student in Singapore. Before I accepted Jesus as my Saviour, I was an extremely short-tempered person.

Though I have always wanted to be a filial son, I would raise my voice at my parents if I disagreed with them. No matter how hard I tried to be patient with my parents, I just could not control my emotions.

One day, I got into a heated argument with my father and I insulted him so badly that he cried. As usual, I went back to my room feeling extremely condemned.

So, I went online to search for videos on the topic of distress. Then, Pastor Prince’s sermon came up in my feed. At that time, I was not a believer and I wasn't really interested in the video. But something in me made me click on that video.

Initially, I couldn't comprehend what Pastor Prince was saying and was losing interest. However, I continued watching and suddenly, Pastor Prince started talking about the gift of no condemnation. That caught my attention.

I watched till the end of the video and when Pastor Prince prayed for the people, I started to cry uncontrollably. That day, I said the salvation prayer.

I also started listening to Pastor Prince’s sermons almost every day to learn more about God’s love for me.

Miraculously, I have stopped losing my temper easily, and have become more patient and understanding towards my parents.

Now, I feel blessed to have a loving family and parents who are so accommodating.

All glory and praise to God!

Marriage life transformed, delivered from vices and getting stronger through the Communion

I was raised in church, but never really understood what it meant to be a Christian. When I left my hometown to further my studies, I started to smoke, drink and gamble. I was even addicted to pornography.

Eventually, I got married and had a baby boy. In order to support my family, I had to work overseas. When I was abroad, things grew worse, I started living in adultery and my wife also got involved with another man. That crushed me. I was so hurt and felt that my life had no more meaning. Nonetheless, for the sake of my son, I still applied for my family to join me in Canada.

Months after we reunited, my love for my wife rekindled. However, the pain and hurt was still present. I realised that I needed God’s intervention and we started going to church where we learnt to forgive each other.

One day, I came across Pastor Prince’s sermons on YouTube. His preaching was so profound yet straight to the point. I had never heard anyone share such amazing revelations and anointed words that imparted grace to the listeners. I have learnt a lot from Pastor Prince, including being conscious that we have been made the righteousness of God in Christ. I would listen to his sermons all day long.

Since then, I have been delivered from my drunkenness, stubbornness, and sexual immorality. My physical body has also gotten stronger after partaking of the holy Communion daily, discerning the Lord’s body. My wife was even healed of scoliosis without any surgery!  

We have also been practising the Lord’s presence and love together. Now, our marriage is completely restored.

Today, whenever I am asked to share the word of God, I make sure that the message only points to Jesus, the reason for our living, and nothing else.

All glory and praise to the Lord! Thank you, Pastor Prince and New Creation Church!

Youth healed of anorexia and accepted into medical school

In 2017, at the age of 15, I was diagnosed with anorexia nervosa, an eating disorder. There was a voice that kept telling me that food was bad for me. I became so severely malnourished and underweight that my muscles lost almost all their strength. My organs were failing, and my blood pressure and pulse rate were extremely low. My mind was also filled with negative thoughts, including suicide.

When I went to the doctor, I was told that my condition was very critical. My liver enzyme level was on the rise, and the doctor told my parents that if my condition didn’t improve, I would need a liver transplant. My parents were devastated.

That night, my aunt's family came and asked us to partake of the holy Communion together. My uncle prayed for me and that started our journey with God. My family and I started listening to Pastor Prince’s sermons and by God’s grace, I got well enough to be discharged. We also started attending New Creation Church as a family.

However, my mind was still filled with negative thoughts and I would get into arguments with my loved ones. I had to stop school for half a year due my physical condition, and could only return in 2018. Even so, I had trouble focusing during lessons. This caused my grades to go downhill. I felt very lousy and condemned.

But God never gave up on me. As I continued to listen to sermons and put my trust in Him, my miracles came—one after another. I woke up one day and the voice that kept tormenting me disappeared! From then on, I was able to eat normally. Eventually, I was healed of anorexia. My relationship with my family members began to improve. As for my studies, I managed to graduate with high distinction and was accepted into a local medical school. Praise the Lord!

God not only restored to me what I had lost, but gave me superabounding grace! This is only possible through our Lord Jesus Christ!

Relationship With Daughters Restored Through God’s Grace

My children were raised in a Christian home and saved at a young age. A couple of years ago, my 20-year-old daughter left home, stopped communicating with our family, and ventured into drugs, cults, and other inappropriate behaviours. She was also suffering from anxiety and panic attacks. It was devastating to see her like that because if you knew her, she was the sweetest, most beautiful daughter anyone could ask for.

My younger daughter was also going through a lot in school and was acting out, lying constantly, sneaking around, and participating in harmful behaviours. They both wanted nothing to do with the things of God and were putting themselves and their family in danger. It was so sad and discouraging. I love them both and want the best for them, to live free from the constant hurt and pain. It seemed like my relationship with them had been damaged and irreversibly broken.

I wrote in to Pastor Prince’s ministry a few times, asking for prayer for my daughters. I prayed for protection, healing, restoration, and deliverance for them and our family. I believed that despite their behaviours and what they believed about themselves, they were still the righteousness of God in Christ—redeemed, forgiven, and cleansed! I pleaded the blood of Jesus over them and declared for their hearts to turn back to God and their family.

The Lord answered our prayers and restored our relationships! My daughters and I now have better relationships than before. We communicate honestly, love each other, and most importantly, we simply rest in Jesus’ love. I know it was by God’s grace that our relationships have been restored.

I continue to believe the Lord for more and more favour in this area, and I continue to declare more blessings in our relationships with each other and with all we come in contact with.

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your amazing ministry full of love and the beautiful grace of God!

Marriage Restored, Son Doing Better In School

Last year was a tough year for me and my family. My husband of seven years became angry with me and we started fighting frequently. Our marital problems weighed on me until I contemplated suicide. I kept thinking that I was worthless because nothing I did pleased my husband.

I later discovered that my husband had been having an emotional affair with another woman for about six months, and he was preparing to leave me. When I confronted him about this, we had the biggest fight ever. I felt depressed and confused. He even confessed to not caring about me and to being okay with the idea of leaving me and his sons behind. He seemed like a different person that I did not recognize.

I prayed and asked the Lord to help me turn the situation around. Even though my heart hurt and suicide was constantly on my mind, I fought off those thoughts and was ready to leave my husband. I planned to transfer my son to another school and started packing our belongings. I was in the car when I heard a voice tell me, “Wait.”

I watched videos of Pastor Prince’s sermons and cried so hard because I felt God’s love flowing through his preaching. It made me feel stronger and everything I was going through didn’t seem that bad. In one of Pastor Prince’s sermons, he said God has already answered our prayers and we can be thankful. He also said to go to Jesus in our dark times because He is always there when we need Him.

I began to declare my family is restored and thanked God that the doors to infidelity were closed. I thanked the Lord that my sons will have a father, a happy family, and a home to come back to. This was my heart’s desire and I knew God would turn things around for my family.

Today I can humbly say that my marriage has been saved! My husband stopped his infidelity and we are rebuilding our relationship. Our love, trust, and respect for each other are growing deeper, and I know it is all the Lord’s doing. My older son is now doing better in school.

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your teachings. They have truly opened my heart to God and I have never felt so close to Him in my life.

Brother's Miraculous Healing And Salvation

I am from the Philippines and have been residing in Singapore. I started watching New Creation Church’s services in March. I even asked my family members, especially my brother, in the Philippines to tune in. For two weeks, I kept sending the sermon excerpts to my brother to get him to watch.

In April, I got the news that my brother had a stroke and had to be admitted into the hospital. Though I was shocked and scared, I quickly calmed myself down and called my family members in the Philippines to partake of the holy Communion together. I also prayed Psalm 91 over my brother and anointed myself with the anointing oil on his behalf.

Initially, my brother was rejected by a few hospitals as he had displayed symptoms of COVID-19. Thankfully, a hospital finally agreed to send my brother for a scan which confirmed that he not infected with the virus. However, he was still in a critical condition. We were told that if he did not respond well to the medication, he might have to undergo surgery. During this time, I contacted the church for prayers and was encouraged greatly.

After just three days in the intensive care unit, the doctors told us that my brother was improving and could be transferred to a normal ward. On the seventh day, he was discharged! According to the doctor, my brother’s condition should have been worse, and it was a miracle that he could be discharged so early.

Even as my brother was recovering at home, I knew that God has never stopped showing him love and grace. Eventually, we experienced another miracle when my brother accepted Jesus as his Lord and Saviour!

Praise the Lord! Thank you, Pastor Prince, for unveiling God’s grace and teaching us on the power of the holy Communion and anointing oil!

Mother Received Christ

My mother had always been open to prayers and hearing sermons, but she was never saved. So, one of my prayer requests this year was for her to receive Christ as her Lord and Saviour.

One day, as I was spending time with the Lord, I felt led to anoint my house and declare good over it. Days later, my mother suddenly felt the desire to read the Bible after meeting a friend who’s a believer. Immediately, I got her one. Seeing that she was starting to get hungry for the things of God, I encouraged her to declare that she is the righteousness of God in Christ.

I also remember Pastor Prince declaring that The Year of Hazon Vision would be a year of many salvations. So, I started envisioning my house as a place of worship.

In the second week of January, I asked the Lord to help me share the gospel with my mother and He led me to Mark 5 where Jesus healed the woman of an issue of blood. I shared the story with my mother and told her that God not only wants to heal her, He also wants to be a Father to her. That day, I led my mother in the salvation prayer!

She was bursting with joy after the prayer, and was even healed of pains in her back and knee. She is now a different person, and she talks about Jesus constantly. She even shared about her desire to pray for her customers at work!

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for releasing such a powerful word this year. My hazon vision came to pass within the first few weeks of January. All glory to God!

Freed from depression symptoms

21 July 2020 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

I was diagnosed with clinical depression three years ago. Each week, the dosage of my medication kept going up. I was not able to meet anyone or go to work as I would suffer from anxiety attacks.

Two months ago, I stopped taking my medication out of frustration. Due to that, I started experiencing vertigo and nausea every time I woke up, and would break into cold sweat occasionally. Whenever I moved my head abruptly, I would also experience shock sensations and have headaches.

Almost every Sunday, a friend of mine would text me, reminding me to tune in to Pastor Prince’s sermon. I would thank her, but would often forget to tune in. On Sunday, 26 July, my friend texted me again. I was feeling exhausted from the symptoms I experienced, and on top of that, I had to run an errand. However, when I returned home, I decided to tune in—something I had not done in two years.

At the end of the service, Pastor Prince prayed for healing over someone suffering from depression and who has been struggling with his or her medication. He also added that this person does not usually tune in. I broke down, and immediately felt a warmth flowing through my body. That prayer felt like it was exactly for me.

After I stopped crying, I realised that my nausea, vertigo, and headaches were gone! I also felt a huge weight lift off my chest. Since then, I’ve been taking the Holy Communion daily and claiming healing over my depression. Now, I am completely off my medications, and the symptoms have not returned. I no longer experience panic attacks or deep dips in my mood. I’m also able to socialise with friends.

It has been more than three years since I felt this sense of joy in my life!

Deliverance From Heavy Addictions, Now Saved And Blessed

I grew up without my mother, so my grandmother had to fill in the role as my mother. When she passed away, my life went downhill. Though I was already a believer, I stopped going to church. My family also had little time for me, and I lived a rebellious lifestyle. With little guidance, I got into bad company. At the age of 16, I was drinking almost every day, and smoking up to one and a half packets of cigarettes daily. I even got hooked on drugs for a period of time.

At the age of 21, I attempted suicide due to stress from a toxic relationship and many other things. This was the third time I tried to kill myself since I was 16. Needless to say, it was another unsuccessful attempt. I was admitted to the hospital and placed in the Institute of Mental Health (IMH) for a while.

The entire ordeal was a blur to me, but during that dark season, I remember crying in my room, and hearing a voice saying, “I Am”.

I did not know what that meant until a few months later, after I came back to New Creation Church and started attending services regularly. Through Pastor Prince’s teaching, I realised that God never left me, especially in my time of need. I believe that the voice I heard during my dark season was God telling me, “I am your provision, I am your salvation”, and most importantly, “I am here”.

Today, I am 23 years old and I am completely set free from the chains that had a hold of me. In fact, it was almost impossible for me to quit smoking, but after I prayed and asked God for deliverance on my birthday, my Abba Father answered my prayer. And when God gives, He gives in abundance.

My relationship with my family has been restored, and I am also blessed with a boyfriend who loves and cares for me. He even attends church with me and is now saved!

Praise the Lord for not giving up on me, and turning the darkest period of my life into a testimony. I am so grateful for God’s grace, and I look forward to hearing Pastor Prince’s sermons every week!

Restoration Of Marriage

I was brought up as a Christian but never really had a personal journey with the Lord. About two years ago, I found out that my husband had been unfaithful to me. What made matters worse was that I was five months pregnant with our second child. Subsequently, I moved out of our home with our firstborn.

For four months, we lived apart. I also left my job as I had been working for my husband. During this period, he started drinking heavily and it was as though he had become another person. I could not bring myself to trust him again, so I filed for divorce. I felt extremely devastated, lost, and helpless. And that was when I turned to the Lord.

I then heard a sermon by Pastor Prince on the Holy Communion and decided to partake of it every day. I also joined a care group and began speaking over my life and marriage.

One night, as the finalisation of our divorce loomed closer, I cried out to the Lord, telling Him to help my husband if it was His will for our marriage to be salvaged.

The very next morning, I received a call that my husband was caught driving under the influence of alcohol. The amazing part was that though he was drunk, he felt led to drive towards a roadblock and surrender.

After that incident, things started changing for us. My husband stopped drinking and we began living together again. The Lord also gave me an enjoyable job with a pay raise. My husband and I also called off the divorce!

Our marriage improved tremendously and I began praying for my husband’s walk with the Lord. Then, sometime last year, my husband chanced upon one of Pastor Prince’s sermons and began listening to him. Soon, he got hooked!

Today, my husband is serving in a ministry and we have a strong and happy marriage. We would pray and listen to Pastor Prince’s sermons together. In every area we’ve lost, the Lord has restored. Praise the Lord!

Reunited With Biological Sister In Church

After the death of my adoptive parents, I often wondered who my biological family members are and hoped to reunite with them.

In early August 2019, I casually shared about my desire with a friend and told Daddy God that I wanted to look for my biological family but did not know where to start.  

A few weeks later, my husband and I attended the East zone worship night where Pastor Ronald Koh shared a testimony of a sister who experienced a breakthrough. During his sharing, I asked God about my harvest for this year too, and the words “family blessings” were impressed upon my heart.

Three days later, I met a friend who asked me if I have a sister. She went on to share that she has a long-time friend in church who looked and behaved like me. So, I briefly told her about my background—that I was adopted and I have many siblings out there.

That evening, she texted me asking for more details. So, I sent her a photo of my birth certificate to verify with her friend, and we found out that the names of our biological parents matched!

In end-August, I met up with my sister, and words could not describe the joy I had! I am really amazed by my Daddy God’s hand in this, and how He had placed my biological sister in this house so that we could be reunited.

As I reflect on this awesome reunion, I realised that it started since I prayed for family blessings at the start of this year. Praise be to our awesome, faithful Father in heaven!

Back In The Arms Of Love

Twenty-one years ago, I received Jesus Christ as my Lord and Saviour. However, I believed that I could never live up to the expectations of what it means to be a Christian and decided to leave church three years later.

In April 2019, I decided to attend the Resurrection Sunday service in New Creation Church. During the service, tears trickled down uncontrollably as I realised how much I needed God and His love for me. I also realised that God had never left me all these years. Since that day, I have been attending church and learning about God’s grace. I can’t say enough how much I have been blessed to be a part of this church, and to have God back in my life again. Hallelujah!

A Miracle Baby

In 2014, I was pregnant and had a detailed scanning done at the 20th week of my pregnancy. The doctor told my husband and me that our baby had a short femur. As I was turning 40, I faced a very high risk of having complications during pregnancy. Thus, the doctor referred me to a specialist and they concluded that my baby was four weeks behind normal growth, meaning that his legs and arms looked like he was 16 weeks old instead of 20 weeks old — with the likelihood that he could be a dwarf!

To confirm this, the doctors suggested that I take a test which was invasive to both the adult and baby, to determine if my genes or my husband’s genes had a family history of dwarfism, and if my baby was really a dwarf. If the result was positive, my husband and I could then make a decision to keep or abort the baby.

We were devastated by the heartbreaking news as we had found out that I was pregnant on Christmas Day, and believed that our baby was a gift from God.

Finally, my husband and I decided to keep our baby and not go for further tests. We trusted that God would make this precious gift PERFECT for us and give us a normal child. We claimed His promises in Psalm 139:1 and Psalm 139:5 (NLT), “O Lord, you have examined my heart and know everything about me… You go before me and follow me. You place your hand of blessing on my head.

We continued to rest in the Lord and knew that as long as we rest in His love for us, we are protected from all harm. In August 2014, I went through an emergency caesarean birth. Miraculously, a healthy baby was born. He is currently 22 months old, a healthy and happy boy, blessed with brains and good looks. To God be all the glory!

A Father's Salvation

My father had always been against Christianity and he would scold those who tried to evangelise to him.

Around three to four years ago, he was diagnosed with late stage lymphoma (a cancer that attacks the body’s immune system). The doctors had no solution nor was anyone confident of my father’s survival.

He eventually went for chemotherapy. Things seemed fine at the beginning. I tried to share with him about Christ, but was rejected over and over again. After a lengthy period of treatment, things turned for the worse. My father was in immense pain and regularly stayed in the hospital. On top of that, the side effects of the treatment also affected his mental capacity. It caused much distress in the family.

The turnaround came when I felt the Holy Spirit prompt me that it was time for my father to be saved. I contacted New Creation Church’s Chinese Ministry and arranged for volunteers to come to my parents’ place.

The moment they spoke to my father, I could tell that there was a peace upon him. They were chatting, then a miracle happened—the volunteers invited my parents to say the salvation prayer and both of them accepted Jesus as their Lord and Saviour!

The volunteers also prayed for my father’s condition. By God’s grace, two years after that meeting, my father has no more symptoms of lymphoma. All glory to Jesus!

Salvation For The Household

In 2014, I was doing renovation works for a client. Every time we met, she would spend a great deal of time sharing the gospel with me and encouraging me to visit New Creation Church.

That led me to visit New Creation Church out of curiosity, and the experience was mind-blowing. Since young, I always knew that there was a God but I didn’t know it was Jesus. When Pastor Prince shared about God, I was so touched that I wanted more of it.

So for the next few months, I would wake up early on Sundays and sneak out to attend church. Back then, I didn’t tell my wife that I was going for church services as she was a non-believer.

Then in March 2016, I finally accepted Jesus into my life. Since then, my life has been completely transformed.

I was led by the Holy Spirit to confess to my wife about my date with Jesus every Sunday and she was shocked. Thankfully, she did not kick up a fuss but made me promise that I would not to force her to attend service with me.

I accepted that but I also prayed to God that He would reveal Himself to her, and cause my entire family to enjoy a close relationship with Him.

Three months passed and I was baptised. By the grace of God, my wife agreed to follow me to church as a form of family bonding.

Since then, I stopped working on Sundays so I could spend time with God and my family.

Then at one of the services in 2017, I saw my wife raising her hand when Pastor Prince was praying for us. I was thrilled! Not long after, I received a card from the children’s ministry Rock Kidz informing me that my children have accepted Jesus in class.

Now, my kids would ask me to say grace whenever we have meals together. They would also wait for me to come home to say a bedtime prayer over them. This makes me really happy and I cannot describe the immense joy in me. I thank God for answering my prayers. He is so, so good!

Planted In A Kingdom Family, Growing Stronger In The Lord

For years, my hubby had resisted joining a care group as we were both busy with work, but we eventually decided to join a care group that was near our home after I was prompted through a sermon by Pastor Prince. 

Prior to the first care group session, my husband injured himself after a failed attempt to pull out a cyst from his armpit, and he was not able to lift up his arm for a few days. 

That Friday, we visited the care group and met a mother who asked us to pray for her child. So my husband stretched out his hand and prayed for her. 

We experienced a strong presence of the Lord that evening and amazingly, my husband’s arm was healed the very next day. He was able to lift up his arm, and the cyst in his armpit dropped off miraculously by itself! 

Since then, my life has never been the same. From this care group, I got to know a group of kingdom friends with whom we often have Bible study and fellowship. I realised that the more I sought the Lord and let go of my daughter’s studies, the better she performed. 

In the past, I used to feel that the message shared in church was the same every Sunday. But after joining the care group, the Holy Spirit opened my eyes to see new things in the messages. My husband, who used to have no interest in reading the Bible, is now studying Hebrew. 

There was also once when I began to worry about our finances as the money in my Central Provident Fund was depleting, and we would have to fork out more cash every month to pay for our housing loan.   

However, my husband told me to rest in Jesus, and my care group members also encouraged me to look to Jesus for His supply. 

Subsequently, my husband got a new job. By industry standards, the highest increment one could get is 20 per cent. But because of God’s favour, my husband got an increment of 35 per cent. On top of that, the company even gave him a five-figure signing bonus. That eased my worry about our housing loan. 

I am so thankful for the wonderful kingdom family God has blessed me with and I am blessed to be under an awesome care group leader who always points us back to Jesus. I have grown so much in one year versus attending church on our own for more than a decade. To God be the glory!

Three Prayer Requests For The Year Answered

During was one of the bleakest periods of my life, I was stressed and tired out from caring for my newborn, having to deal with my husband’s frustration from work as well as bearing the brunt of his family’s conflicts. 

Although I was physically, mentally and spiritually drained, I dragged myself to church on Thanksgiving Sunday. During the service, when Pastor Prince prayed over our three prayers requests for the year ahead, I committed my prayers to God and believed that He would answer the impossible.

My first prayer request was for my father-in-law to sell his property at his desired price, buy a property of his liking near our house and rent a temporary place to meet the family’s needs. Due to different views regarding the sale of the house, my in-laws were often in conflict. To make things worse, my father-in-law was asking to sell the property above market value. 

I had the responsibility of speaking to my father-in-law and facilitating a sale. Every day, I would confess and believe God to move my father-in-law's heart, and pray for favour and grace to be upon the situation. 

Whenever insecurities or worries kicked in, I would confess God’s goodness, grace and favour until my worries melted away. I continued to trust God to do the impossible. 

Five months later, we managed to sell the property at a record price, secure a suitable rental property, and buy a property just next to us that had not even been marketed for sale. I knew it was God who did the impossible.

My second prayer was answered when my husband finally accepted Christ after seeing God's goodness and blessings in my life. 

Lastly, my husband's relative who had had depression for more than a decade, started coming to church after my husband shared God’s love and goodness with her. This was my third prayer request. 

Praise God for what He has done. Thank you, Pastor Prince for all the wonderful sharing about God's love towards us.

Life Transformed After Learning About Jesus Through Pastor Prince’s Resources

A few years ago, I came to know about New Creation Church and Pastor Prince because our local TV stations would air his broadcast programmes. Every time I listened to Pastor Prince, I would experience joy and an unusual peace.  

I thought I had fully understood what Pastor Prince was sharing until around April 2018. At that time, I was recovering from an abusive relationship that had left me a single mother. I went through a whole year of tears and heartache.

I began watching Pastor Prince’s sermons whenever I had some free time. One day, I was reading his book Unmerited Favor and came to a section where he mentioned the movie The Passion Of The Christ, and I was led to check out the movie.

As I watched the scene of Jesus being whipped, I realised that I didn’t really know Him. I then started reading Pastor Prince’s book, Destined To Reign. And over the next three days, I saw Jesus Christ in His true majesty revealed in the pages of the book. All of a sudden, I knew Him and I fell in love with Him.  

As I continued reading the book, the Holy Spirit began showing me things from the Bible that I had never seen before. The scales fell off my eyes and I even got healed of a breathing problem and severe migraines that I had had for 14 years! In addition, that same week, I met a man who turned out to be a Godsend. He accepted me and my daughter, and loves us so much. He is also a prayer warrior, and we would read extracts of Destined To Reign together. Glory be to God, our wedding is scheduled for December 2019!

The Holy Spirit also led me to a fellowship group where I get to share about Jesus, and see lives tremendously transformed as a result. I am so grateful to God for you, Pastor Prince. Thank you for your amazing books and sermons!

Marriage And Motherhood In My 40s

I came to New Creation Church 16 years ago. Its messages, especially those that taught me about God’s love for me, really helped me. I began to see God’s blessings in my life. However, while my career was on an upward trajectory, nothing seemed to be happening on the life partner front. Back then, whenever Pastor Prince asked us to bring our prayer requests to the Lord, “life partner” would always be among my top three requests!

Time went on and before I knew it, I was hitting 40. It is not easy when you have a prayer that has not been unanswered for a long time. However, in my heart, I believed that God had a good plan for me and would bring it to pass. Our circumstances may not always line up with the Word of God, but I believe it is precisely then that we need to hold on and trust that He who promised is faithful. And for those who desire it, we have to believe that God wants to see us blessed and married even more than we want it.

In 2013, I was introduced to Sam. At first, I really didn’t think that he was the one. I gave him a full inquisition on "law versus grace". He couldn’t answer any of the doctrinal challenges I threw at him!  It didn’t appear that he was the partner that God was giving me.  As he wasn’t living in Singapore at that time, I thought it would be the right thing to tell him early that we should just remain as friends.

We continued to hang out and I got to know him better. I realised he loved the Lord and was a kind man, but I was still unsure if we were suitable. So I sought godly counsel. We even met up with one of our pastors. That session made me feel loved. Even Sam was surprised that the church cared for each member like they were family.

Eventually, I felt ready to take a step of faith and take our relationship to a next level. In 2015, Sam and I were married. But even then, we had to continue to trust God in the area of having children as I had already crossed 40.

But God was faithful. We had His promises to hold on to in the Bible and I knew that my age wasn’t a barrier for Him. The world can say a lot of things, and what we hear and read can put fear in our hearts, but it's what God says that really matters.

On 22 May 2017, our daughter was born. She has brought so much joy into our lives, and we are grateful to God for blessing us with her.

Not Too Tough To Receive Jesus

Since I became a believer in my teenage years, I have been praying for my family’s salvation. My mum came to receive Christ in my early twenties, but it was tough to reach out to my dad. He was one who trusted in his own strength. I did not invite him until two days before our church’s Mid-Autumn Celebration event so he would not have time to come up with an excuse not to come. 

During the service, I saw his eyes light up when Pastor Mark was sharing. So when the altar call came, I asked my dad if he was willing to receive Jesus as his Saviour. With neither questions asked nor doubt on his face, he raised his hand! I was happy beyond words and at the same time, I wondered how it could be so easy. All I did was invite him and keep a faith picture in my mind. As I write this, my heart is still overwhelmed with joy. Hallelujah! To God be the glory.

A Marriage Restored By God’s Love

My husband and I have been married for 35 years. However, for many years, we had a very unhappy and depressing love-hate relationship. We thought that the marriage was our “cross” to bear and I was always asking God to change my husband and get him to see his errors. We sought counselling from the church and from numerous professionals. But, this always resulted in more fighting and unhappiness. I felt helpless and thought there was something mentally wrong with me.

I never felt loved and accepted in our marriage and I’m sure my husband felt the same. We were very inward-looking and always blaming each other. The root cause was the constant condemnation arising from the anger and unforgiveness we had for each other. I had no faith that our marriage could last, much less be a happy one.

Then, a miracle took place. In 2014, we started to listen to Pastor Prince’s messages online. Usually, we would not follow a particular minister but because Pastor Prince kept pointing us to Jesus and His finished work, we watched and listened to him every day. I’ve never heard this kind of teaching in all my years as a Christian.

Since hearing the message of grace, our minds have been transformed and our marriage restored! We have a newfound love for Jesus and for each other. We now endeavour to love and accept each other unconditionally just like how our heavenly Father loves and accepts us. My husband no longer gives me the silent treatment and I no longer feel like I have done something wrong all the time. What freedom this has brought us and our marriage! 

That does not mean our marriage is perfect and we do not have challenges. But we refuse to allow strife to enter our marriage, and consciously choose to keep our hearts free from resentment, unforgiveness and selfishness. This can only happen when we know what we have received through Jesus and His finished work, as well as the great love our heavenly Father has for us.

I can honestly say that since I started listening to Pastor Prince, my life has been transformed. I am no longer controlled by fearful and anxious thoughts which I believe are linked to condemnation. I am firmly grounded in God’s grace and my righteous foundation in Christ.

Now, my husband and I have a small Bible study group where we gather fortnightly to study Pastor Prince’s book Live The Let-Go Life. This has been a wonderful time of encouraging one another to rest in Jesus and His finished work. 

I am very thankful to Pastor Prince and New Creation Church for their dedication in bringing the gospel of grace to the world. I am sure marriages are being restored everywhere due to this message!

Delivered From Depression And Shame, Now Married And Blessed

I was raised as a Christian and had accepted Christ in 1985. The many Christian churches I went to always taught a mixture of law and grace, and I was a lukewarm Christian. My dad was a womaniser and I grew up seeing how my mum suffered as a result. This and the lack of a father’s love made me believe wrongly and accept a man whom I thought was giving me the right kind of love. 

I lived in with him for about six years in a relationship full of betrayal, deceit and lies. We finally ended our relationship with so much pain, condemnation and shame in me. I thought that God was mad at me for all the sins that I had committed since I was a kid, and thought that they were all recorded in the Book of Life. When judgement comes, I thought I wouldn’t be fit for heaven. 

Soon after my break-up, I came to Singapore to work. At that time, I was full of negative emotions—pain, depression, anger, shame, fear, condemnation and anxieties. I also had thoughts of suicide, and prayed that God would lead me to a church. I started attending New Creation Church in December 2004. 

At first, I wondered: “Why is this pastor always talking about God’s goodness? What about God’s wrath and judgement?” But I felt prompted to just listen, and I kept attending the services and immersing myself in Pastor Prince’s messages—in the morning, on my way to and from work, and when I got home. 

I finally realised how great the gospel of grace is and how much Pastor Prince was unveiling the beauty of our Lord Jesus Christ. It made me want to always attend church services and best of all, it made me realise how much Jesus loves me. I started serving in church in 2009. God also answered my prayer, according to my heart’s desire, for a believing husband.

In the later part of 2010, I left for the United States with my husband and brought along my entire collection of Pastor Prince’s message CDs. I watch his television broadcast every day and I’m so thankful that it’s available here. I have also been sharing about God’s grace at work and giving out Pastor Prince’s books and CDs to the people around me. 

Looking back, my life has been transformed since 2004. I was a miserable person with self-pity and self-condemnation but now I know God’s love. Looking to Jesus gives me peace and the life He wants me to have. Though there are many challenges, our wonderful Jesus gives me strength each day.

Thank you so very much, Pastor Prince, for spreading the gospel of grace!

From Barrenness To Fruitfulness

I was pregnant a month after my wedding in March 2009 but the foetus died before six weeks and I had to go for a dilation and curettage (D&C) procedure to remove the deceased foetus. I became pregnant two more times in April and October 2010 and experienced similar miscarriages. Each time, I had to go through the dreaded D&C procedure.

After three D&C procedures within the span of 18 months, I continued to bleed for five months. The miscarriages were emotionally and physically trying for me and my husband. But we thank God for the godly counsel and enormous support from the pastors in church. They never lost hope and continued to stand in faith with us. My husband and I continued to rest and trust the Lord for restoration, clinging on to God’s promise of fruitfulness in Isaiah 54.

Pregnant for the fourth time in January 2012, I miscarried again. By then, my gynaecologist was at a loss, having exhausted all tests and procedures known to her. God led us to a medical professor specialising in high-risk pregnancy. After a battery of tests, it was discovered that the amount of my natural “killer cells” were exceptionally high. This meant that I was blessed with an exceptionally strong immune system. But these “killer cells” at a higher level also resulted in my past miscarriages.

I was then referred to a rheumatologist with a special interest in reproductive immunology and I was placed on a treatment that gave us a glimmer of hope. Yet our trust was ultimately in the Lord as we understood that science and medicine are limited.

I became pregnant a fifth time in September 2012. But it was found to be an ectopic pregnancy, a life-threatening condition where the embryo grows outside the womb, most often in the fallopian tube. We didn’t know what to do but to trust the Lord that all things would turn out well. Despite treatment, my fallopian tube ruptured and the surgeon had to remove it during an emergency operation to save my life.

The odds of me becoming a mother were now stacked even higher against me, but I knew our God is a God of all possibilities. Surely “He maketh the barren woman to keep house, and to be a joyful mother of children.” (Psalm 113:9a, KJV) Some weeks later, Pastor Prince shared that 2013 was the year of the Key of David, of open doors and open wombs. At the end of the service, Pastor Prince requested those who were believing God for a baby to stand up and receive the blessing, especially those women who have had experienced multiple miscarriages. My husband and I boldly received the childbearing promises proclaimed.

I was led by God to serve in the children’s ministry to take care of young children under the age of two and embrace motherhood by faith. I also served in the Chinese Ministry, and encountered a new believer who had been trying for a baby for several years. In the natural, I should have been disqualified to pray for her. But I remembered Pastor Prince’s sermon Healing Flows When Grace Is Exalted, where by faith, Abraham prayed for Abimelech to bear children despite Abraham being childless. I knew that God was setting me up for a big breakthrough, so I just boldly prayed for the new believer to conceive.

In July 2013, I conceived naturally for the sixth time in four years. At week six, I experienced spotting. Fear began to creep into my heart and bad thoughts of the previous miscarriages began to saturate my mind. I was so distressed and suicide thoughts kept playing in my mind. I couldn’t sleep, had panic attacks and would wake up more than 10 times every night, crying and walking around the bedroom.

Pastor Christina Wee and two sisters in church prayed for me and encouraged me to continue to walk by faith and exercise my authority in Christ. Pastor Christina also began to sing worship songs and gradually, the depression lifted and I got better.

Every day, I confessed that I would not miscarry. I also confessed Luke 2:40 over my baby: “And the Child grew and became strong in spirit, filled with wisdom; and the grace of God was upon him.”

At week 24 of my pregnancy, I experienced excruciating pain at the sides of my stomach, and the doctors were convinced that I would deliver the baby prematurely. I rejected the bad report and kept on confessing that I would carry the baby to full term. Finally, at week 38, my son was born healthy and strong. The Word of God is so alive that I witnessed Luke 2:40 being manifested in his life. My son had no allergies or jaundice at birth and he never got unwell after each vaccination. He rolled over for the first time when he was three months and 22 days old. At four months old, he weighed over 8 kg and according to the clinical chart, he was in the 97 percentile for his height and weight!

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for preaching the gospel, helping us to grow in faith as we hear the preaching of the Word. Your ministry has indeed transformed our lives radically!

Forgiven And Accepted In The Beloved

I grew up struggling with insecurity even though I had been serving in church from young. I felt that my relationship with God was “shakeable”.

When I was in my teens, I had a few relationships and thought that in order for me to gain love and respect from the guys I dated, I had to give myself to them. Although I felt the Lord telling me not to give my body away, I was too weak to say no. Every time I performed the act, I felt guilty and was fearful of becoming pregnant.

This cycle continued in my subsequent relationships, and I was rejected by one of them because I was no longer a virgin. I felt lost and condemned, and lost hope of ever meeting a man who would love and respect me.

In 2011, I started to attend New Creation Church and learnt about the gospel of grace. Like the woman in the Bible who committed adultery, I too, received the gift of no condemnation. And I agree with what Pastor Prince preached in the sermon titled Experience Victory Over Sexual Immorality—sex outside of marriage is not fulfilling at all.

In church, I met a guy who loves and accepts me for who I am. Our relationship is filled with security because Christ is at the centre of it. Now, I am blessed, happily married and pregnant with a baby girl. Praise God for His restoration in my life.

I can now confess what I did in the past because I know I am forgiven, and I am the righteousness of God in Christ. Jesus loves me and accepts me for who I am. It’s not what I have done, but it’s all about His faithfulness to me.

God Restored To Me A Loving Husband

After we got married, my husband became abusive. He would always accuse me of being unfaithful and would often beat me up. I used to go to work with bruises and a black eye. I was hospitalised a few times because he broke my nose or toe, and I lost a child from the beatings.

Even though we love each other very much, things just went from bad to worse. I did not know why he behaved in that manner until he was diagnosed with schizophrenia, a brain disorder that made him hallucinate and become highly suspicious of others.

By that time, we had accepted Jesus Christ as our Lord and Saviour, and we were going to church every Sunday. The doctor put my husband on medication to numb his brain but he did not like it because it made him slow. He stopped his medication and I had to live with his abusive behaviour.

Then, we started attending New Creation Church and found the teachings very uplifting. After listening to Pastor Prince’s sermons week after week, I realised that my husband gradually became less abusive. 

Today, my husband is free from the symptoms of schizophrenia. Jesus has restored to me the man I fell in love with. My husband is now very, very loving and gentle to me. 

Against all odds, Pastor Prince’s sermons on God’s everlasting grace that lifts up Jesus in our lives have restored our marriage. We have been married for 28 years, and are still going strong. God has also blessed our six children who are excelling in their studies, and we are financially blessed too.

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your message of grace.

From Broken To Blessed

In early 2015, I suffered a mild stroke and went through a divorce. I was then diagnosed with depression and could not sleep properly for weeks.

A psychiatrist prescribed sleeping pills to me just to ensure that I got some sleep. I spent hours attending counselling sessions which did not help as I simply could not find an answer to my problems.

My sister, who attends New Creation Church, persuaded me to join her in church. Our parents, who were not believers, also attended the service with us as they were worried about my state of mind.

Learning what Pastor Prince taught on the gospel transformed me and restored peace to me. I enjoyed going to church and listening to Pastor Prince’s sermons, and wanted Sundays to come more quickly. I would also listen to worship songs on my way to work and I became more positive in my outlook.

In 2016, I married a beautiful lady who attends our church regularly. On Christmas Day that year, we welcomed a healthy baby girl. What an amazing and special gift from God!

Another wonderful thing that happened was that my parents started attending church services on their own. They were no longer just tagging along with us but had become believers themselves. The funny thing is that my mum, who doesn’t understand English, enjoys listening to Pastor Prince. I believe that somehow she is able to understand what Pastor Prince is preaching.

That’s not all that God did for me. I had to be on medication due to the stroke, and the side effect of it was a burning pain in my left shoulder.

During a service in 2016, Pastor Prince prayed for the sick and asked those with pain to place their hand on the afflicted part of their body. I placed my right hand on my left shoulder and prayed together with Pastor Prince.

Amazingly, by God’s grace, the pain left me immediately. I thought that the pain might come back again but guess what? It has been over a year and the pain has not come back!

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ that has totally changed my life.

No Longer an Angry Mum

I used to struggle a lot with my temper. In the run-up to my son’s exams, daily blow-ups were a fixture in our household. After every incident, I would pray and ask God to change me. At that time, we were still relatively new to New Creation Church so I would deal with sin the same way I was taught in the past. I would confess my sin, ask for God’s forgiveness and vow not to do it again.

I also employed all kinds of strategies to try and stop losing my temper—by counting to 10, taking deep breaths, leaving the room, screaming into the pillow. I even made a poster for my children to wave in my face. It read, “Mummy, you are raising your voice! Please leave the room NOW to cool down!” Needless to say, none of them worked for long.

I spent a lot of time wondering why God was not answering my prayers and changing me. This sense of failure added to the guilt and worries I had over the impact of my actions on my son’s studies, leading to even more angry outbursts. I dreaded the year my son had to take his Primary School Leaving Examinations (PSLE). I couldn’t bear to think how I would turn out when I was already so out of control in a normal school year.

However, when we were seven months into the PSLE year in 2016, it suddenly occurred to me that our days had been incredibly peaceful! Even my children and husband all agreed that my temper had improved a lot.

The truth is, in the middle of the year before, my family faced new challenges that caused me to desperately seek Jesus. I began to play Pastor Prince’s sermons in the car, read grace-based devotionals and the Psalms, and declare out loud that I am the righteousness of God in Christ whenever I was fearful.

These constant reminders of Christ’s finished work, His love and my unassailable position in Him, gave me such peace, security and joy to face all the challenges. It even extended to the area of my son’s studies and I have not had to use any of the past strategies to control my temper.

When I returned to work and had less time to guide my boy in his studies, to manage my anxiety, we took to praying together every morning as I sent my children to school. We would start by reminding ourselves of what Jesus has done, our right standing in Him and how the blessings He deserves are now ours to receive through His finished work. Then, we would pray for God to give my son the desire to study and empower him to act out this desire. We asked for direction on what to study, how much to study and how to study. Praying over this every day has really contributed to the peace I had over the coming exams.

Praise be to God, my son did well for PSLE! We were amazed when he got an “A” for his Chinese as he had been getting only 50 to 60 marks since Primary 5. His aggregate score was also sufficient for him to get into the school he wanted and the Lord has been showering him with favour in his new school since then.

We are really humbled and overwhelmed by His goodness. My temper has become much better. There has been no more daily flare-ups and I can count with one hand the number of times I might have gotten irritated since 2016. Thankfully, these things have never escalated to the same intensity like before.

It is very clear to me now that when I was preoccupied with my temper problem and trying by my efforts to overcome it, I was bound to fail. Victory only came when I was no longer focused on the problem, not even on trying to solve it, but focused instead on Jesus and His finished work. All glory be to God!

Saved—Me And My Household

Fifteen years ago, my elder sister received Christ. At that time, my dad, who was a strong believer of another faith, was really sad and hurt. Whenever we spoke about her faith, he would be completely silent.

Once, I was going through a very tough time and was feeling devastated and broken. That was when my sister prayed for me. For the very first time, I could feel the presence, warmth and embrace of God. I was speechless. Though I didn’t tell my sister, I felt so much better after that.

Over the next few weeks, things got better and I wanted to experience the same embrace again. So I asked my sister how to pray and who God is, and tried praying on my own. That day, I felt an overwhelming love that I had always wanted and accepted Jesus as my Lord and Saviour.

Later, my brother also received Christ through a similar encounter. By then, my dad had grown numb to the fact that all his children had turned to Christ, and respected our decision.

Accepting Jesus had a huge impact on the three of us. Our tempers changed for the better and we were scoring distinctions in school and getting promotions at work. Most importantly, our parents and friends could sense the radiance that we were exuding.

I also started sharing about Jesus with my parents. Instead of saying no to me, they would nod along and over time, they even learnt to say, “Amen”. Initially, I thought that they were just happy for my achievements but one day, my dad asked me to bring him and my mum to church!

I was in absolute shock and disbelief. But after confirming that he was not kidding, my siblings and I brought him and our mum to the Chinese service for the first time.

During worship, my parents cried. That was the first time I saw my dad tear. At the end of the service, they responded to Pastor Mark Ng’s altar call and received Jesus on the spot. My siblings and I were shocked and I cried tears of joy.

Today, my family has grown even closer, and we often worship and pray together. Sometimes when my siblings and I are down, our parents would remind us of the finished work of Jesus, quote Bible verses to us and pray for us. My parents have also grown happier and look so much younger than before. Praise the Lord!

Family Blessed, Daughter’s Depression Bested

My family had been staying overseas for years due to my husband’s job. In February 2013, I came back to Singapore for Chinese New Year and visited New Creation Church. 

I was led to read Pastor Prince’s book, Unmerited Favor, and from then on, I could not stop listening to his sermons. Though I did not fully understand what Pastor Prince was preaching, I would tear and feel so loved. 

In 2014, my family made several trips back to Singapore to attend the services in New Creation Church. When we were in Hong Kong, we would watch Pastor Prince’s sermons as a family on Sundays and treat it as though we were attending the church services. 

During that time, one of our daughters suffered from depression and was suicidal. She had been seeing a psychologist for one-and-a-half years and was on medication. 

In mid-2014, my husband and I felt that we should go home and plant ourselves in New Creation Church. By February 2015, we were back in Singapore. At that time, I decided to discontinue my daughter’s medication. Instead, I partook of the Holy Communion with her and confessed that by Jesus’ stripes, she would suffer no side effects from the abrupt termination of medication. Praise the Lord, she did not develop any side effects.  

Day and night, we would play the two A Touch Of His Presence worship albums and sermons by Pastor Prince in our house. We would also confess Psalm 91 and Psalm 23 over ourselves at the start of each day, and I was saved from car accidents three separate times. 

In 2015, the Lord answered my other prayers, which were for our family to be baptised and visit the land of Israel together. 

By 2016, my three daughters were rooted in the youth ministry. A year later, my daughter who battled with depression was set free and even completed her GCE O Levels with good grades which enabled her to enter a junior college. All glory to our Lord Jesus Christ! 

We are truly thankful to be in the house of God, worshipping and singing praises to our Lord! Thank you, Pastor Prince, for shepherding us, teaching us to see Jesus and how to walk with Him!

Heart Turned Back To God

I accepted Christ in 1985 when I was a teenager. Back then, I was on fire for God and was actively involved in church. I believed I had to prove my love for God by sacrificing my time, energy, finances and career to serve Him. After 10 years, I was burnt out, hurt and discouraged as I felt I could not meet the demands of being a good Christian. Finally, I left church feeling condemned and imprisoned by God’s laws. 

For the next 20 years, I hid from God and did not go to church, listen to any sermon or read any Christian literature. I felt alienated from God thinking that He was angry with me for failing Him, and cut off all contact with my church friends. My heart became so cold that I thought I would never feel His presence again. I went after different kinds of interests, philosophies and ideologies to fill the void in my heart, but nothing truly satisfied.

In 2015, a friend invited me to New Creation Church. I turned him down many times but he persevered. One day, he invited me to church again. I said no, but my wife, who was not a believer then, said she would like to go. Grudgingly, I attended my first church service in 20 years at Marina Bay Sands Ballrooms with my family. 

During the worship, my wife was so touched that she started crying even though she had not heard the songs or attended church before. When Pastor Prince started preaching, I was amazed to hear that all my sins are forgiven because of Jesus’ finished work, and God is for me and not against me. I used to be very sin conscious and guilty for not being right with God. I felt that I had tried my best to be good, but always fell short. As the Word was preached, chains began to break and scales fell off my eyes. I felt the Holy Spirit telling me that I have always been God’s beloved child and Jesus has never left me all these years. I felt the irresistible love of the Father drawing me back to Him. Through that sermon, the hardness of my heart melted away. Though my wife did not understand much of the message, she felt God’s love so strongly that she gave her heart to the Lord that day. 

Since then, we have been set free from fears, hurts and wrong beliefs, and are enjoying God’s shalom and free favours in our lives. Now, my family is rooted in a care group. Our daughter is also enjoying the children’s ministry Rock Kidz, and we can see the love of God transforming her from glory to glory. 

Thank you, Pastor Prince and New Creation Church. My life is a fruit of you preaching the gospel of God’s grace!

From Divorce To A Happy Family

I have been saved since I was six but had the idea that I needed to be perfect to be a Christian. As a result, I put off going to church for many years because I wanted to get my life right first. 

In early 2013, I went through a divorce. Then in April, my parents invited me to New Creation Church. Pastor Prince’s sermon was a refreshing change from what I thought I knew about the Word. I made a decision to recommit my life to the Lord and I have seen His promises manifest manyfold in my life. 

In that same year, I started dating a fellow believer who was a divorcee with a daughter. Our relationship was shaky at first and we never thought about marriage. However, we decided to attend New Creation Church together. 

In April 2014, I started serving in the children’s ministry Rock Kidz and I saw God bless me with more than the little time I had given Him. I received a glowing work appraisal that year and was blessed with a five-month bonus — the highest I had ever received — along with a significant pay raise. 

In 2015, my boyfriend and I decided to commit ourselves to come under God’s covenant for us — marriage — and we have been so blessed since. 

God blessed my husband with a job offer that came with a 33 per cent increment. Despite our still trying financial circumstances, we purchased our first property in September 2015. In November, I accepted a job offer with a 48 per cent increment. At this point, we wanted to have a baby but I had not had my period for a few months. 

In December, I visited a gynaecologist and was told that I might have polycystic ovary syndrome and was not ovulating. I rebuked this symptom and started applying the anointing oil, believing our Lord for a baby. In early 2016, Pastor Prince encouraged us to hold fast to God’s Word and hence, I began confessing that there are no barren women in God’s kingdom, and that my husband and I are going to be fruitful.

In March, my stepdaughter started asking for a sibling. I did not know how to reply so one day I simply told her to put her hand on my tummy and pray. A few weeks later, I tested positive on a pregnancy test kit and we realised that the date of conception was just a day or two after her prayer!

My pregnancy was smooth sailing, pain-free and symptom-free, and I'm happy to share that we delivered a beautiful and healthy baby boy. All glory be to our Lord Jesus Christ, our Saviour.

Restoration In Son’s Studies

2011 was a very challenging year for me. It was the year when my son went through a rebellious stage and became very challenging to manage. To top it off, he was going to sit for his Primary School Leaving Examinations (PSLE).

In the end, he scored badly for his exams. At that time, I blamed God for allowing such a thing to happen. My son also felt condemned for failing me and withdrew into himself, putting a strain on our relationship.

Weeks later, Pastor Lawrence Lim preached a sermon that reminded us to judge God’s love based on the cross of Jesus and not our circumstances. There and then, I realised how self-centred I had been for being angry with God. Then, I heard God telling me not to use the world’s standard of success on my son. Since He was the one who created him, how would He love him less and not want him to be successful in life? All He wanted me to do was to trust in Him and let go of the situation to Him.

When my son entered Secondary 1, I learnt to parent with grace. I also began to see that education isn’t everything in life but letting him encounter Jesus is the top priority. From then on, my desire was for him to have Jesus in his life and love going to church.

After attending DARE, the youth group for secondary school students, my son began to change for the better. I was amazed at his growth in his walk with the Lord and I heard positive remarks coming from his leaders.

Despite this, my relationship with my son hadn’t gotten better. At times, I still felt guilty and condemned for failing to be a good mum, but the sermons on the gospel of grace constantly reminded me to trust in God.

In 2015, my son sat for his GCE N Levels examinations. My hubby and I were hoping that he could do well enough to get into polytechnic, but we knew that he was not confident due to his bad PSLE results. Nonetheless, after Pastor Prince shared that it would be a year of His restoration, I encouraged my son to look to Jesus for restoration in his studies.

Before the end of 2015, we experienced His restoration indeed! Not only did Jesus cause my son to perform well enough to enter his desired course, He also restored my son’s confidence. Most importantly, my relationship with my son was also restored! The invisible wall that separated us was broken down. Praise Jesus! Now I see that His ways and plans are far better than what my small mind can think.

Life Blessed After Believing Right

My husband and I are assistant pastors at a church in India. But I struggled with depression, guilt, condemnation and hopelessness for many years. I was also a victim of wrong doctrines, and believed in the influence of demons and the bondage of curses in believers. My wrong beliefs added to my stress, despair and hopelessness so much so that I started to doubt Jesus’ finished work on the cross.

During my worst trials, I became increasingly despondent and frustrated. I even thought of running away from Jesus and the ministry that He had entrusted us with.  

Then, my daughter insisted that I should listen to Pastor Prince’s messages, but I was hesitant as we had been advised to stay away from the message of God’s grace.

Nonetheless, as I listened to Pastor Prince’s sermons, I began to be set free from all my bondages and strongholds. I have been immensely blessed to know that I am the beloved child of God. Life has become so beautiful and I am now filled with a brand new hope.

Recently, I also took the seven-day challenge on living the let-go life. Initially, I did not know how it would help me but praise the Lord, 10 days passed before I realised it, and I discovered that all my anxieties about my children and ministry were all gone!  

Glory to Jesus! Another miracle that happened was the opening of my own beautiful clinic which I thought could never come to pass as there were many obstacles along the way. But during the journey, the Lord encouraged me through a message by Pastor Prince on Caleb boldly asking Joshua for a mountain because he had a different spirit.

I also thank God for healing my relationship with my husband, children and in-laws. My journey with Jesus is now one of love, forgiveness, celebration and restoration.

Saved And Conceived A Baby

My wife and I had been trying to conceive since 2015. We sought treatments from physicians, fertility specialists and even prayed to different gods.

In July 2017, my wife asked to attend New Creation Church with my friend who had encouraged us to go to church with him. That Sunday, we left our house at 7.30am to attend the service at Marina Bay Sands Ballrooms. But when we were about to leave, our car broke down! 

I told my wife that this might be a sign for us not to go to church but my wife insisted that we should go since we had promised our friends and they would be waiting for us.

So we waited for a taxi for 10 to 15 minutes but there was none in sight. Again, I told my wife that it was a sign that we should not go to church. But for the third time, my wife said that we should go. Hence, she booked a cab and by God’s grace, we made it in time to listen to the sermon.

As we listened to Pastor Prince preach the gospel of God’s grace, we felt that there was so much truth in it, and it sounded very logical even to our unbelieving minds.

We continued to attend services at New Creation Church. Once, Pastor Prince invited those with right knee injuries to stand and receive God’s healing. My friend, who was suffering from that condition, stood up to get prayed for. Though I was not a believer at that time, I prayed and asked God to heal my friend’s leg as I did not want to see him not being able to run. After the prayer, I asked my friend if he felt anything and he said no.

Suddenly, I felt a warm feeling on my left hand even though it was very cold in the ballroom. It was the first time I felt the presence of God.

I had been having pain in my left hand for months, and I could not lift anything that was heavier than 2kg. But at that very instant, the pain went away completely. I was shocked. After the service, I shared my experience with my wife and friends and showed them that I could lift up a heavy chair with no pain.

Since then, we have been attending church every Sunday. Within the next four to six weeks, we found out that my wife was pregnant.

We knew it was God’s answer to our prayer. We said the salvation prayer and accepted Jesus Christ as our Saviour.

Before my current marriage, I lost my first wife in an accident. During my darkest moments at that time, I had asked God to give me a loving wife and grant me a second chance to do better. Not only did He answer my prayer, He blessed me with a wife who would eventually lead me back to Him. God is truly great.

I break into tears every time I think about how He did not forsake me during the lowest points in my life. We want to thank Pastor Prince for preaching the gospel of grace. Now, we know how true and loving our God is.

God Restores!

My hubby and I prayed for a child in 2015. In April that year, I was spotting and the pregnancy test kit did not show the clear results I was expecting.

At that time, my gynaecologist did not show empathy and simply advised me to see how things would go. I was heartbroken.

I remembered it was a Monday morning when I woke up bleeding heavily. The gynaecologist said I had had a miscarriage and that it was a common thing. My mind went blank and I kept asking why this happened to me. I was in despair and tried to ease my pain by taking cold drinks and eating food that I was not supposed to consume.

This continued until October 2015. I remember I was typing out my students’ portfolios when I felt God telling me to go to church. So I turned off my laptop and went for service at Marina Bay Sands Ballrooms.

I did not expect anything. All I wanted to do was to pour out the frustrations that were in my heart all this while.

At the end of the service that day, Pastor Prince said that someone in the congregation had lost a baby and that next year, God would restore what was lost. Upon hearing that, my eyes went red. I knew then that God would always be there for me.

In the same month, I felt dizzy on two occasions. But I did not read too much into it, thinking that I was unwell. After my husband went overseas for work, I felt something was not normal and decided to buy a pregnancy test kit. When I checked the results, it showed two clear red lines which meant that I was pregnant!

I took a picture of it and sent it to my husband. He was overjoyed. I did not expect the restoration to happen so quickly in the same month I heard the word in church.

Our boy was delivered last year and growing up well. Thank you, Pastor Prince and praise the Lord!

Life Restored After Leaning On God’s Grace

I have been a Christian since I was three years old, when my aunt first brought me to church. Back then, having heard about Jesus’ love and what He had done for us, my faith in him grew strong.

Since then, John 3:16 has been my favourite verse. I also realised that I always had more than enough favour and blessings on my life.

I could even love the ones that didn't exactly treat me very well in school. Once, one of the school bullies asked me why I could treat her with love despite her trying to put me down all the time.

I said, “With faith — we love because God first loved us.” She then told me she had been jealous of me. I went on to forgive her and ever since then, she became a believer.

However, when I grew up, I became proud and arrogant, thinking I had a part to play in my successes. What a deadly mistake! As the old saying goes, pride always comes before a huge tumbling fall, my life went into total chaos.

Whatever could go wrong, went wrong. My debts piled up despite my high-paying job. My husband and I started to become estranged and my family relationships began to break down.

Though I attended church every Sunday, my faith in God was nowhere to be found. It seemed like I was just listening without processing what I was hearing. I was so full of myself that I thought I didn't need Jesus to be successful.

I came to a point where I was in a suicidal state. I felt that there was no purpose in life and I kept asking God to bring me home.

I was breaking down — physically and mentally. One day in 2015, I felt the burden on my shoulders becoming so huge that I broke down. It was at this moment when my three-year-old son, who had been attending Rock Kidz (our children’s ministry), came to me and said, "Mummy, don't cry. Jesus loves you. Bible said so. He will help you."

It was then that my eyes were opened and my burdens relieved. Yes! The answer is always Jesus. I was so lost in my pride and works that I forgot to look to Jesus.

After the realisation, I started to walk with God and talk to him constantly. To make things short, not only did my life turn around, I started to experience overflowing blessings. My debts were cleared despite the economy downturn, my relationship with my husband became sweeter than ever before and we were blessed with another son! My family relationship also improved and I even got promoted.

I can only say that it is the grace of God that truly transformed my life. All glory to Jesus!

Household Blessings

In July 2017, my husband, who is a non-believer, sprained his back and it caused him to have difficulty sleeping at night. It also affected his work and had a potential impact on his bonus given that his physical review was due soon.

The following Sunday, I attended church and during the service, Pastor Prince prayed for people suffering from back pain. He also pointed at the bottom-left area which was exactly where my husband was hurting. By faith, I stood up and claimed the healing for my husband.

When I got home, my husband was walking around the house without his medicated plaster on. He told me that he did not know why, but somehow the pain was no longer there. So I shared with him what happened at the service and instead of lashing out at me for being nonsensical, he remarked that my Jesus was very powerful.

Since then, he began to open up to the gospel and even started listening to Christian songs. Glory to God!

In addition, my nine-year-old daughter and seven-year-old son have also been blessed in 2017.

Initially, my daughter was faring poorly in her studies. Once, she scored nine out of 20 for her English composition and the teachers were telling me that she was an average student and might not be able to remain in the top two classes. This caused me to have many anxiety meltdowns.

Nonetheless, I kept praying and telling myself to walk by faith and not by sight — even when she came back with a score of 66 out of a hundred for her Mathematics test. We also started praying before she studied, asking Jesus to be her tutor and be in charge of everything.

During her final exams, my daughter brought along a small bottle of anointing oil from the children’s ministry, Rock Kidz. Before the start of her papers, she would dab some anointing oil on the crown of her head, the four corners of her table, exam papers and stationery. She even shared with her friends in class that the anointing oil was “Jesus oil”!

I thank the Rock Kidz teachers for teaching our children. By God’s grace, my daughter scored more than 85 marks for all her subjects, and came in second in class for her English composition. She also secured a place in the top two classes.

As for my seven-year-old son, he had been a slow learner since young. Even when he started primary school, he was still not able to read well. Hence, we had high expectations for him. I also never felt the urgency to sign him up for any phonics classes but just simply bring him to Rock Kidz every Sunday.

However, just by reading Bible stories, listening to worship songs and sermons, my son began to learn how to read. When it was time for his exams, he did so well that he came in third in class.

Our amazing heavenly Father really loves to exceed our expectations! Thank You, Jesus, for the amazing things that happened in 2017!

Marriage Restored and Family Blessed

My relationship with my wife turned really bad after the birth of our second child. As young parents we were not able to cope with two young children who were a year apart. Things got worse when we became stressed at work. We quarrelled frequently and had less time with each other. Our lives seemed to revolve around the children and work.

We finally separated and engaged lawyers to end the relationship. My wife and children moved to stay with my in‑laws. At this darkest point in our lives, God divinely arranged for us to attend New Creation Church without each other’s knowledge. When I found out that my wife and children were attending the same church as me, I suggested fetching them to church every week.

Though things were still gloomy, both my wife and I chose to fix our eyes on Jesus as our only way to salvation. Weeks of hearing and learning about what Jesus has done for us slowly set us free from stress and anger. We began to love each other again with Jesus in our midst.

By the grace of God my wife and I eventually reconciled and our relationship is now better than ever before.

Our third child was born within four years after we had separated, and my wife has found a new job that offers better work‑life balance. She was also promoted within two years, and in the third year she was transferred to the department of her choice, where the work is easier to manage. Indeed with Jesus, everything is possible!

Possessing His Possessions in the Year 2016

“Possessing Our Possessions” is our church’s theme for the year 2016 and this is based on the Old Testament story on how God delivered His people into the Promised Land after 40 years in the wilderness.

I was looking forward to what my Promised Land would be. But as time passed, it seemed as though I had spent most of my 2016 in the wilderness rather than the Promised Land.

Earlier this year, a family member went through a difficult time and I took time to help her through it. I also performed poorly in my sales as I tried to protect my client's interests by advising them not to take unnecessary risks in the months leading up to Brexit.

Despite being aware of my challenges, my apathetic bosses placed me on performance management measures and I was threatened with termination.

Rather than be terminated, I thought I could leave the company and look for a new job. However, the job market was difficult as news of private bank laying off their bankers shook the industry.

Throughout this difficult period, God repeatedly spoke to me through Isaiah 41:10, “Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.”

I believed in Him and tried to keep my peace and focus on my life and family, especially my supportive wife and lovely daughter, Hannah who was growing up so fast.

God is good and faithful. First, He delivered some big ticket deals that helped me keep my job. Then in November, He delivered me out from this wilderness by opening the door to a new job that I had always dreamt of. He really knows the desires of my heart.

The amazing thing was the job market continued to be challenging and the role was placed by another brother in Christ, a headhunter based in Malaysia and whom I have yet to meet in person.

Finally, I am really excited to share that God has blessed us with another child. We had been praying for a sibling to accompany Hannah for the longest time. God's timing is perfect. This news came on the same week that I had resigned from my old job. If my wife were to be pregnant anytime earlier, s she would have to deal with morning sickness and worry about my job at the same time.

No matter how meticulous and thorough our planning, we can never outplan God. His plan is perfect and delivered at the perfect timing.

All glory and honour be to Him.

Walk with God and Daughter’s Studies Transformed by Grace

I have been a Christian for many years and attended church regularly. I always thought that to know God was to be in church, attend care group meetings, do the right things and be obedient. However, I didn’t enjoy spending time in the Word because I didn’t seem to be able to get any revelation from God.

Then in mid–2014, the Lord led me to listen to Pastor Prince’s sermons. Week after week, day after day, I kept receiving the revelation that I am God’s beloved and that I am the righteousness of God in Christ.

His grace empowered me and eventually, something changed inside my heart. I enjoyed worshipping the Lord, reading His Word on my own and listening to sermons.

Over the last two–and–a–half years, I began to rebuild my personal relationship with God. I would receive revelations whenever I read His Word, read or listen to Pastor Prince’s messages. I also began to meditate on verses that speak to me.

I started to receive God’s promises and rhema word, and began to change. The most visible change in me was that I was no longer a harsh mum who believed that results were everything. I used to scold my daughter very badly when she did not do well in school.

But after hearing Pastor Prince’s messages on grace, I now speak grace to my children because His grace governs the way I lead my life.

Then, my daughter started to receive her breakthrough in her studies. From a semestral assessment score of 235, she went on to score 266 for her Primary School Leaving Examinations last year. God is amazing! I was also inspired by the Lord to set up a personal blog to pen down all my revelations from Him after learning so much about His grace.

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for preaching the message of grace. It has changed my life, my believing and my thinking! I am so in love with our Lord Jesus Christ now!

Possessing Family and Career Blessings

The year 2016 has indeed been a year where my husband and I possessed our possessions!

We had been believing God for the salvation of our parents for a number of years now. We were glad when both our mothers agreed to come to the Mid-Autumn Celebration service in September this year. My mother-in-law received Christ as her Saviour on the day itself while my mother was moved and has begun attending church.

We have also been believing God for a child for a year without success. I had been diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome in my teenage years and never had regular menstruations. This year, on my birthday, when I happened to use a pregnancy test kit, it was good news! I had done this test many times before when my period was late but it had never been positive. Praise God for a wonderful birthday gift! We are now in our second trimester and are believing God for a champion baby.

I had also been praying for a number of years for a stable job that would allow me to grow and maximise my potential. In the middle of this year, I received two excellent job offers from reputable companies, and had the luxury of choosing between them. I am now flourishing in a new workplace which happens to be pro-family, and have colleagues who care for me. All glory to Jesus!

Double Restoration and Provision

Last year, in August 2015, we found out my wife Berinda was pregnant. However, the gynaecologist shared that the fetal development after eight weeks did not look good and was unusually slow. There was a 4mm cell with no heartbeat. Berinda also experienced bleeding throughout the pregnancy. During our visit to the gynaecologist on 30 August 2015, we were told that Berinda had a miscarriage.

We were devastated by the news, but our leaders in church ministered to us, prayed with us for God’s restoration and reminded us to have a good opinion of Him.

In September 2015, Pastor Prince prayed at the end of a service saying, “This time next year, you’ll be holding your miracle baby.” Berinda and I just held each other’s hands and said “Amen”. Our friends who knew about the miscarriage also texted us excitedly to stand in faith with us.

On 18 December 2015, Berinda found out she was pregnant. And on 6 February 2016, at our visit to the gynaecologist, we found out we were expecting twins! We knew in our hearts that it was God who had restored to us! Last year, the theme for our church was The Year of His Restoration. We were stunned and in awe by the double restoration even before the year ended!

We also want to share the style in which God give His good gifts. Berinda’s desire was to have natural childbirth for the twins. She started to lay hold of God’s Word and all His promises concerning childbirth. Her favourite verses were “Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us (for it is written, ‘Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree’)” (Galatians 3:13) and “And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 4:19)

Our gynaecologist highly recommended a C-section because in many cases, even after the first twin is born via natural birth, the other twin might not be in the correct position and there would be a need to undergo an emergency C-section. Berinda and I discussed the matter, and for the safety of the twins, decided to fix a date for the C-section.

In June 2016, Pastor K E Mathews came up to congratulate us and he encouraged us to believe God for natural birth if that was our heart’s desire. This ignited Berinda’s faith to believe again.

On 23 July 2016, one month before the due date, Berinda’s water bag burst. Yet, her heart was at rest, and she even took time to shower and put on make-up before we went to the hospital. At the hospital, she delivered both babies quickly and naturally in less than an hour. It was a supernatural childbirth. The doctors were stunned by the speed of the delivery, and the fact that both twins were in the correct position.

God knew we were concerned about finances for the hospital bill, but our final cash outlay after government subsidies and Medisave deduction came up to over $300 when we were expecting to pay a four-figure sum!

From the restoration of babies, to the safe and natural delivery of the children, to the finances for the hospital bill, God truly did it all for us! Thank You Jesus for these amazing blessings.

Brother Protected from a Near-Fatal Accident

I have been greatly blessed by Pastor Prince’s teachings on Psalm 91. Every night, I would recite the psalm over my family and friends, and declare the blood of Jesus over them.

In the afternoon of 7 October 2016, I was studying when I received a call from my brother. It turned out that he got hit by a car while riding his bicycle. According to him, the car did not stop even though the traffic light was not in his favour. Shocked, I rushed over to where my brother was.

I saw that his bicycle was badly damaged — the wheels on both ends were bent, and the screws were out of place. The brakes were also no longer working. However, the bicycle seat where my brother sat was completely intact and my brother only sustained a bruise!

A thousand may fall at your side,
And ten thousand at your right hand;
But it shall not come near you.

It was such a surprise because the impact of the car was directly on my brother. However, he did not even break a single bone. Instead, he stood right up, and could walk and move properly, as if the accident did not happen at all!

Thank you Pastor Prince for making known the beauties and protection we have in Psalm 91. Praise and glory be unto Jesus Christ who protects us!

Son’s Behaviour Improved by Resting in Christ

At the start of July this year, we began having difficulties getting our son to attend school and classes. Initially, he only showed reluctance to go to school but we were still able to encourage him to do so.

However, as days passed, he started throwing tantrums in the mornings. The teachers in school even had to make special arrangements so that he need not join the rest of his classmates for assembly.

Towards the end of the term, we learned that he was not joining his classmates for classes and just wanted to keep to himself. The school teachers also told us that the school might consider temporary suspension and he would not be able to perform in the school’s graduation ceremony.

During that period of time, we attended one of the services where Pastor Prince said that if we had any issues with our child, we should just go to our Creator.

We took that promise and committed everything to our Daddy God. We also consulted the teachers at Rock Kidz and the first word from them was rest. This message was consistently reiterated to us as we spoke to different leaders in church. The presence of God was strong and we knew He was taking care of our situation.

What happened after was nothing less than a miraculous transformation. Our boy not only began to show more willingness to go to school, he also got to participate in the year-end graduation concert! By the last school term, he even got a certificate for being an “Angel” in class.

In addition, for the first time, we saw him looking forward to go for his Rock Kidz classes. Truly, God had restored to our family double for our trouble!

Thank you, Pastor Prince for your teachings. Thank you, Pastor Lian for your wonderful warriors! Our kids do not just enjoy the Rock Kidz services, but are growing to be rock-solid kids.

Answered Prayers for Parents’ Salvation and Deliverance from Addiction to Pornography

Since 2012, my number one prayer request was to get my parents saved. But it had always been a struggle for me to ask them if they would join me in church.

In January 2013, both of my parents, who lived overseas, came to visit me and I had this urge to bring them to our Chinese Ministry service just before their flight home. I felt so awkward bringing this up so I kept praying in tongues. I also prayed that God would give me His courage and wisdom, and to soften their hearts to know Jesus.

Finally, I went up to my dad, who has a heart condition, and asked if he would be interested to go to the Chinese Ministry service with me. I told him that perhaps, this God whom he didn’t know would heal him.

Surprisingly, without any hesitation, both my dad and mum agreed to join me for the service! That evening, both of them accepted Christ. It was really the happiest day of my life and I am just so grateful to know that His timing is perfect! Hallelujah!

In addition to my parents’ salvation, God had also amazingly taken away my years of addiction to pornography.

Since I was a teenager, I had been hooked to pornography. I was so addicted that I had to watch it every single day and occasionally many times a day!

Each time, I would tell myself I wouldn’t do it again. I even tried many ways to stop but failed. In the end, I knew I couldn’t do it and gave up. I decided to surrender myself to Him and kept confessing that I am the righteousness of God in Christ even when I was watching pornography.

Praise the Lord! Now, the chain of bondage has broken and I have been completely set free! I have no more desire of surfing pornography websites anymore! I believe only Jesus can remove and wash away all the lustful desires from within! God is really awesome and faithful! His goodness and mercy are really indescribable.

A Restful and Blessed Pregnancy

My husband and I decided to start a family in January 2012, but were told that it would not be easy as I had a history of fibroid and endometriosis, and my husband was diagnosed with a varicose veins condition. The gynaecologist advised him to go through surgery to fix the veins first. We discussed and decided to trust the Lord for His favour as having a baby was one of our three prayer requests for 2012.

Shortly after our decision, I dreamt I was pregnant and blessed with a son from God. I woke up and wept with joy while relating this dream to my husband. In early April 2012, we found out that I was indeed pregnant!

Our gynaecologist was pleasantly surprised and monitored me closely during my first trimester. I was also advised to opt for a C-section as I had fibroid surgery less than a year ago. I was very disappointed as I wanted a painless and natural delivery.

It was only after hearing God’s Word whilst attending our church’s pre-natal seminar that I felt the Lord’s peace and comfort, and agreed to the C-section.

Daddy God yet again showed us His timely intervention, my C-section was scheduled two weeks prior to my estimated delivery date. During the delivery, we discovered that my baby’s umbilical cord was coiled three times around his tummy. If we had proceeded with a natural birth, the cord could have moved and wrapped around his neck.

I handed my pregnancy to the Lord and He had blessed us in so many instances. Our finances were blessed, and my sales team’s performance topped the department throughout my pregnancy. I enjoyed a restful pregnancy.

As Pastor Prince always say, nothing is too big or too small for our Daddy God. 

Nathan is my son’s name, which means a gift from God. And indeed he is.

Hallelujah!

Children Received Jesus as Their Personal Saviour

I have been listening to and watching Pastor Prince's sermons day and night for the past four months. Inevitably, my family gets to hear them too, either in our car or at home. Both my children have never once asked me to change or turn off the message I’m tuning into!

Almost every night, my six-year-old son asks for Pastor Prince's sermon to be played before he sleeps. On 12 January 2013, he raised his hand while you were giving the altar call in the message we were listening to that night. I thought maybe he didn’t mean it, but when you asked a second time, he raised his hand again. I asked him, "Do you want to receive Jesus?" He answered, "Yes!" So I held his hand and prayed the salvation prayer with him, following your words from the sermon.

By faith, I had registered my children for Rock Kidz classes earlier believing that they would say yes. Today, 20 January 2013, was my son and daughter’s first time in New Creation Church. They were very reluctant to attend and we struggled to make it to the 8.30am service. I asked the Lord for help since He loves them more than I can ever love them.

At Rock Kidz, I met a really friendly teacher and he took great care of my son. After the service, the teacher told me that my son had prayed the sinner's prayer! I also asked God for a friend for my 11-year-old daughter. And God put her in a class with an old friend! What a blessing! From not wanting to attend, my daughter came out of the service smiling and commenting how cute the Holy Communion package was!

This evening, my daughter received Jesus after we watched a sermon together. We’ve decided to partake of the Holy Communion together to receive complete healing of her allergies!

A big and heartfelt thank-you to our Lord Jesus Christ and to you Pastor Prince, for being the vessel He has used to feed us the Word of God. Praise our Lord Jesus Christ for using you to bring fresh bread!

A Child in The Lord’s Timing

My wife and I were married on 6 November 2010 by Pastor Gabriel Tan.

Although we had been believing God for a baby since our marriage, we were relying on our own efforts to “make it happen”. After a few months of waiting, my friends started to give me “tips” to increase our chances of pregnancy. Some even advised that we see a doctor. Needless to say, nothing materialised out of our own self-efforts to conceive.

On 11 May 2011, Pastor Lawrence Lim shared with us his experience of how his firstborn was given by God and that no amount of self-efforts could produce a baby. He taught us to rest and told us that “the battle belongs to the Lord”.

We also attended a seminar by Pastor Nerida Walker where she confirmed in the Word that it is God’s will that no woman shall be barren. From then on, we no longer strived to make our baby a reality, but trusted God that we would be given our promised child in His timing.

Sometime in April 2012, as I was reading Psalm 113 in my Bible, I read in verse 9 that “He settles the childless woman in her home as a happy mother of children." It was something that Pastor Prince had previously taught us. This verse jumped out at me and I started to meditate on it. 

On 6 April 2012, the Holy Spirit prompted me that God would fulfil His promise of a child. The conviction was so strong that when my wife missed her appointment to carry out an X-ray on her back, I didn’t nag her to proceed as soon as possible. Instead, I told her to give the X-ray a miss.

Soon after, my wife took a test and found out that she was pregnant. Throughout the pregnancy, we constantly experienced God's grace. When I started worrying about how to bring up my child in the ways of the Lord, Pastor Prince preached the sermon titled, Parenting Keys For Today, on 28 October 2012.

Yeo Hao En Gideon was born on 13 November 2012, a wonderful, handsome and healthy baby boy. We thank the Lord for His love and blessings.

Thank you Pastor Prince for your message of grace and for the wonderful family of New Creation Church.

God Restored Marriage and Family Relationships

I have been married for 20 years, with three children. My marriage can be described as a rollercoaster ride because my husband and I often had conflicts. We hardly communicated and whenever we did, it would often end up in an argument or quarrel. I was not submissive to my husband while he was always very defensive, angry and not family-orientated. As a result, I had never felt happy in my marriage.

Four years ago, I became a Christian in another church. I tried to share the gospel with my husband and nagged him to join me in church, but to no avail. We fell further apart when he started drinking with his friends and spent less time with the family.

I also found out that my husband was having an affair and I became depressed. We began quarrelling and fighting a lot, and he became abusive towards our children. Because of this, I obtained a Personal Protection Order against him. Once, we had a terrible fight and I called the police for fear that he might harm our children. As a result, he spent a night in prison and was very bitter towards me.

Later, when he found out that I had filed for a divorce, he asked for my forgiveness. However, he continued with his affair and still drank nightly with his friends. He then lost his job and ended up with huge credit card debts. It was very difficult to forgive my husband, but God gave me the strength to do so. Eventually, my husband decided to end his affair.

In 2008, I started attending New Creation Church. After some time, my husband joined me for the Sunday services. On Father’s Day last year, he accepted Christ. Since then, we have begun growing closer as a family and I can see that my husband is making an effort to build a better relationship with our children. Without God, our family would not be together today. We thank God for His grace!

No Longer Bitter or Angry!

I am from Indonesia but I have been studying in Singapore for a few years now. I have been tremendously blessed by Pastor Prince's ministry and as Pastor Prince says, right believing truly produces right living!

I was born in a Christian family, but I grew up with low self-esteem. My parents quarrelled almost every day and it was very traumatic for me. When I was 10, I chanced upon a picture of a fierce-looking God in a book. I knew from the title that the picture depicted “God’s anger”.

As a fearful child, I could not get that image out of my head. This changed the way I viewed God. I confessed my sins constantly and couldn't live a normal life. I would even be making “sin confessions” while I was chatting with my friends! My heart was constantly filled with guilt, condemnation and restlessness, and I became very legalistic and judgemental. I grew up bitter and I hated my father all because I “wasn’t believing right”!

When I came to Singapore to pursue my degree, I decided to visit New Creation Church (NCC). Although I could not relate to the gospel of grace during my first visit, I felt a sense of peace fill my heart and started attending NCC soon after.

Amazingly, I am changed today! I do not know when or how it happened, but I kept beholding Jesus, and my life has been transformed! I now understand the true power of the blood of the Lamb and I can pray boldly, knowing that my sins have been forgiven. I also have love and compassion for my father now.

I thank God for using Pastor Prince to radically change my mind and heart, and for sharing the gospel of grace. Blessings have come my way without stress as I rest in Christ! Now I feel never-ending peace and joy in my heart as I believe that I am forgiven, loved, accepted and favoured. Praise the Lord!

Restoration After a Miscarriage

Last year, I was pregnant with a baby boy and was due to deliver on 1 October 2009. Everything went smoothly until my last trimester, at about 30 weeks, when my gynaecologist found out that my baby had no heartbeat.

My husband and I were shocked and lost. We did not even know what went wrong. Even my gynaecologist was clueless and said it should not have happened. During this time, I really thank God for kingdom friends and leaders from New Creation Church who stood in faith with us and encouraged us in the love of Jesus. My husband and I decided to let go and believe God for restoration.

During the Christmas service in 2009, we presented our three prayer requests to Daddy God. All three of my prayer requests were the same — to have a baby in 2010. When Pastor Prince prayed over us, I felt a warm sensation all over my body. I still remembered Pastor Prince told the congregation not to be anxious as Mary had received the miracle seed which was not seen immediately but only after a few months. I was also excited about the new year as Pastor Prince had preached on 2010 being the year of restful increase.

I stood on God's promises and listened to Pastor Prince’s sermons every day. After moving to our new home, I went to the gynaecologist for a routine check-up. Praise God! I was pregnant! My husband and I knew that it was the Lord's restoration and we rejoiced because God is faithful and never goes back on His Word! We also remembered that Pastor Prince preached on restoration in one of his sermons. He said for any kind of lost thing, whoever the judges condemn must pay double! Amen!

Now we hold in our arms God's gift for us — double fold quality — our baby girl born in September 2010. Every time we look at her, we see Jesus' love for us. Jesus loves us so much that He was willing to lay down His life so that we can live an abundant life and be blessed in every area of our lives.

I would like to thank Pastor Prince for preaching the Word, New Creation Church and our leaders who stood in faith with us during that difficult period of time. Most importantly, thank you, Daddy God, for not withholding Your very best, our Lord Jesus!

Brought Their Son Up with Grace and Saw Results

A few years ago, my husband and I listened to a sermon by Pastor Prince on parenting. When our son Michael was born, we decided to guide him based on Pastor Prince’s teachings. What better way to bring him up than to turn his heart to Jesus?

We refrained from using words that cause shame and guilt to correct a particular behaviour. Instead, we would sit him down and address his behaviour. We would also remind him that Jesus loves him, and so do we.

Michael is now seven years old. Recently, Michael shared with us some of the issues he faced in school, such as name-calling by his classmates. What surprised us was Michael's response to this. He said that he told his friends he knew someone who would not make fun of him, who loves him a lot and would not call him names, and the person is Jesus.

Sometimes as parents, our role is to guide our children to Jesus but we can also learn a lot from our children when they demonstrate their faith in Jesus.

Set Free from Condemnation and Received Emotional Healing from Past Hurts

I am a lady from Hong Kong. A year ago, my friend passed me Pastor Prince's book, Destined To Reign. I have never heard of the gospel of grace before. I did not fully understand the book at that time but I was attracted to it. So, I started listening to New Creation Church’s sermons. One day, I listened to a sermon preached by Pastor Lim Lian Neo about forgiveness. She told a story about a mother who intended to choke her newborn baby because she could not forgive herself for committing adultery even though God and her husband had already forgiven her. This sermon spoke to me.

Four days later, the Holy Spirit showed me that I had a deep anger inside my heart. I had not forgiven myself for all my wrongdoings in my past, especially regarding a few wrong relationship choices. I asked Jesus how I could forgive myself. He showed me the cross, and to just look to Him. That night, I dreamt of my childhood. In my younger days, I never experienced a loving relationship with my father. I was also always upsetting my mother for mistakes like breaking the dishes while washing them. I received no form of approval from my parents. Then, I woke up from my dream. I knew Jesus was trying to tell me why I went into those wrong relationships. Jesus comforted me and said to me, "Forgive yourself and your parents."

From that moment onwards, my childhood hurts were healed. I experienced an instant aggressive peace inside me. My heart is now as light as a feather and as bright as a sunny day. Thank you Jesus, for healing my hurt feelings from the past. Thank you Pastor Prince and all the pastors from New Creation Church for your boldness to preach the truth.

Experiencing Peace Despite Being Out Of Job

On 28 January 2013, my company encouraged me to opt for a voluntary exit as my position had become redundant after a restructure.

Although I had been working in the company for more than a decade and held a leadership position, this outcome did not come as a surprise to me as I had heard about the restructure for quite some time.

What really surprised me was my reaction. Even though I lost my job and I was the sole breadwinner of my family, I had a peace that was beyond understanding. What came to mind was Pastor Prince’s message of the year, The Key of David —God Opens Doors That No One Can Shut that was preached on 6 January 2013.

Since the beginning of the year, I had been downloading Pastor Prince’s podcast messages on my iPhone and listening to them on my way to work. The 25-minute drive was perfect. It never failed to help me put the day in perspective. I finally stopped work in April after settling all administrative matters and was handed a considerable sum as a “golden handshake”.

For the next few months, I spent time with my wife and children. My wife and I started taking prayer walks and she stood by me as a pillar of support, believing in God’s perfect plan for me and the family. I enjoyed walking my girls to school in the morning and fetching them home after my evening run. I also took the opportunity to reread all of Pastor Prince’s books to keep my faith strong. While I had my doubts and fears at times, I thanked God for my wife who kept believing and praying for me. Indeed, I found the truth in the verse, “He who finds a wife finds a good thing, and obtains favour from the Lord.” (Proverbs 18:22)

Due to the seniority of my position, there were not many suitable opportunities. While I had several discussions and a couple looked promising, God kept the doors tightly shut. Finally, an opportunity came for me to take on the role of a senior officer at a public-listed company. The interview was short and smooth but the wait was long and arduous. Nonetheless, God opened this door and I was back to work after five (number of grace) good months of rest!

Although the bonus may not be as good as my previous company, I am thankful that I am offered an equivalent annual pay package. After a few months at work, I feel very blessed that I have garnered the support of my immediate boss and the respect of my subordinates. I truly enjoy going to work and trusting God to work out His divine purpose in my every challenge.

I believe that as I look to Jesus, He who has begun a good work in me will complete it. (Philippians 1:6) As 2013 draws to a close, I am thankful to Jesus for closing the door of my previous employment and opening the door to my current job. I am also expectant about the new theme and promise for our church and myself in 2014!

Hallelujah and all glory to Jesus!

Resting in Jesus for Son’s Studies

Since preschool, my son, Darryl Hans, had been labelled as a slow learner, dreamer and late bloomer by his teachers, tutors and friends. They kept telling me that he would not be able to make it for his Primary School Leaving Examinations (PSLE).

When the year 2013 arrived, Pastor Prince declared that the theme of the year was the key of David. So, we placed our trust in the Lord, believing that He would open many doors for Darryl who was taking PSLE at the end of the year.

As we kept listening to Pastor Prince every week, I learnt to coach Darryl with rest. In the past, I used to scold him very harshly when he got very poor results.

But with a renewed confidence in Jesus, I began to have lots of fun, laughter and joy while studying with Darryl. During that time, Darryl even said to me, "Mummy, I think you are the best tutor!" These were the most heart-warming words from Darryl!

I really thanked Jesus for enlightening me with the power of right believing. He showed me that I had to trust that He would prosper Darryl in his studies.

We were also surprised by the change in Darryl. Even though he had finished reading Pastor Prince’s books, Destined To Reign and Unmerited Favour in Primary Five, he did not appear to be close to Jesus. And he would neither sing nor talk when he attended Rock Kidz in church.

But during the exam period, he diligently asked to partake of the Holy Communion every night. He even asked Jesus to take over because he did not want to be the only boy retained in Primary Six.

Finally, on the day when his PSLE results were released, we went to his school with an expectation of good. When I saw his score, I wanted to laugh! Jesus truly has a good sense of humour. Darryl managed to score a grade that qualified him to a good neighbourhood school which was five (number of grace) bus stops away from our house! All glory to Jesus.

Thank You Jesus, and Pastor Prince, for your super anointed preaching that has helped us to believe right and therefore, live right!

Prayer Request for a Child Answered

From 2011, I started asking God to bless me with another child as I was nearing 40, and my eldest child was already nine years old.

I finally got pregnant in 2013 after two years of prayer. However, my happiness was short-lived. The pregnancy was ended when my baby was found to have no heartbeat after eight weeks of gestation. I was devastated.

I pressed on in prayer. Although I was out of the country and couldn’t bring my prayer requests to the Thanksgiving Sunday service at the end of 2013, God didn't forget or forsake me. I was pregnant again in 2014.

But the pregnancy wasn't all smooth-sailing. A blood test result in my second trimester showed that my child was at risk of being born with Down’s syndrome. My heart sank again. I prayed daily and partook of the Holy Communion, rebuking any disease that could harm my unborn child.

Finally, in September 2014, I delivered a healthy baby girl. Thank you God for answering my prayer request. Our God is good all the time.

Experienced Restoration in Her Household

When I first heard Pastor Prince preach, it was evident to me that the message of grace was exactly what I needed to hear!

In 2015, one of the first teachings I heard was about restoration. And as soon as I heard the message, I called my mum and shared with her about God’s restoration.

Soon after, my brother who had left home when I was 14 years old, surprised my mum with a visit. For nearly 30 years, she had not seen him! Not only did my brother spend the summer with her, he even went to see her again during Christmas. I am now 51 years old and glory to God that I am able to speak to my long–lost brother!

Not only so, my other brother, Yves, whom I had not met since I was 18, sent me a message on Facebook. I praise the Lord for the work that He is doing in my family.

Another great news is that I am also getting back in touch with the young man who first introduced me to Jesus. All these happened within the past six months and what a blessing it had been.

My mum and my grandmothers were women of great faith. I remember many years ago, my mum had said that God would bring her firstborn son home. Though it took some time but whatever God had promised, He made sure they would come to pass. Praise be to God who loves us.

Thank you once again Pastor Prince for your messages. The Lord bless you, your family and your church!

Flourishing in His Career

I lost my job in July 2015 and had been out of job for the past eight months. During this time, I experienced the process of “walking through the fiery furnace” or as some would call it, “walking through the valley of the shadow of death”.

I prided myself on my personal achievements through the years, and held on to my job titles and designations like they were trophies. Therefore, when they were taken away, I felt a sense of loss.

I repeatedly condemned myself and my mind kept replaying on what I could have done, and I blamed myself for not trying my best to pacify my ex–boss who had forced me to take on another role.

During this time, I continued job hunting and went from aggressively applying for many jobs to only sending out a few applications. Even though the job responses were not good, I never gave up hope. I knew the Lord was preparing me for something greater.

And the past eight months had been wonderful. During this period, I became a temporary stay–home dad and got to observe my children and learn how they were growing up. This valuable time gave me a chance to help them, correct them and care for them.

I even took the opportunity to bring my family to Florida and New York City for the December holidays — something which I couldn’t do in the past due to work commitments.

I also took on an entrepreneurship adventure in coding and robotics education business. By God’s grace, I was blessed with 15 trainers and four school accounts. By November 2015, my company was officially registered and I found an ideal location to offer public courses as well. And during the March school holidays, the Lord provided students for my business and it was great!

Then in March 2016, I was given an incredible job offer with a better package than what I had before despite the global economic climate. How wonderful is our God! Along with this new job, I now have a business that is managed by my wife.

As Pastor Prince mentioned, we use the Word of God to fight the good fight of faith. When doubts arose, I chose to believe in Him and held on to the promises in His Word such as “I am a chosen generation, a royal priesthood” (ref: 1 Peter 2:9) and “the Lord will make me the head and not the tail” (ref: Deuteronomy 28:13). By laying down my pride and focusing on Jesus’ finished work and His righteousness, and trusting that the Lord was delighted to bless me, I experienced the breakthrough.

In this whole experience, I learnt to understand the Lord is always with me. He loves my family and provides for us. It is not me who puts bread on the table. Indeed, I had a grace revolution in my life! It is all about His love for me.

Dad’s Life Changed for the Better After Being Saved

In 2012, my dad met with a serious work accident and almost lost his right hand. The doctor told us that he might be handicapped. But thank God, the operation was a success.

He rested at home and went back to work about a year later. Within a month, he got into a work accident again and injured his left foot. After that, he could barely walk. During that time, I would pray for his protection and healing. Recovery was slow but certain.

Life was not smooth-sailing after the two accidents. For almost two years, my dad had a hard time finding a proper job due to his injuries. He was unhappy, bad-tempered and worried a lot about his future.

He totally gave up hope in life and was afraid he could no longer financially support the family. I was worried sick but couldn’t do anything, except to pray for him. I wanted him to join me in church, but he was too stubborn and was not a believer. So, I shared with him the testimonies which I had heard from Pastor Prince with the intention of giving him hope.

Then in October 2014, my dad started to have interest and wanted to attend church service with us to know more about Jesus. We were shocked! Since he could not understand English, we brought him to attend Pastor Mark Ng’s Mandarin service.

After the service, he felt an unexplainable relief. I truly believed it was an overflowing miracle, because ever since it started, it had never stopped!

Since that day, my dad has been attending the Mandarin services every Sunday without fail. Hallelujah!

He also learnt to have faith in Jesus, and prayed for a job in His name. In just three weeks, he received two job offers and the second one offered him double the pay of the first! Praise be to Almighty Lord!

My dad has also fully recovered and is now more cheerful, happier, and most importantly, believes in Jesus Christ! It is such a major transformation! I know it has to be God who has been changing my dad.

Prayer for Family’s Salvation Answered

I come from a family with members of various beliefs. I received Christ as my personal Lord and Saviour in 1999 and was baptised in 2001.

I went through many ups and downs in my Christian journey and “church–hopped” quite a bit. The one thing that was constant was the disapproval my father had towards my belief. He told me how Christians had disappointed him many times in both business and personal fronts. Most of all, he hated to be persuaded about his faith and would often get into an argument with us (and others as well) if we were too pushy on this subject and told us to keep our faith to ourselves.

I started attending New Creation Church in early 2009 and remembered going to a Christmas service that year with my then–girlfriend (now wife). Towards the end of that service, Pastor Prince asked the congregation to pray for three areas of breakthroughs for the coming year. Of the three areas that I prayed for, one of them was for the salvation of my family. I knew then that it was a long shot, but it was something that was dear to my heart and I lifted it to the Lord.

In the following years, I would ask my parents to accompany me to church on various occasions but hardly saw any progress. Once, my father even walked out in the middle of a service. Although my mother had been quite open, she always used my father as an “excuse” to stop herself from committing to accept Christ. And at the back of my mind, I was wondering if my prayer was ever coming to pass.

The breakthrough came sometime in 2013 when my mother started to accompany my aunt and grandmother (who were recently saved too) to church. And by mid–2014, my mother took the step to be baptised, together with my youngest brother. In the same year, they even went to Israel for their Christian pilgrimage.

But the biggest blessing was seeing the last member and originally most staunch opponent of Christianity — my father — coming to church! I cannot pinpoint when he changed his heart but after much encouragement from us, he got baptised two weeks ago on 7 August 2015 (almost six years after my prayer at the Christmas service).

Indeed one never know how, where or when God chooses to work. But one thing I know for sure is that God loves me and because He loves me, He loves my family. (ref: Acts 16:31)

All glory to Jesus!

Safe Delivery of Baby and Cysts in Wife’s Womb Discovered Through Divine Arrangement

My wife and I have been married for a couple of years and decided it was time to start a family. We prayed about it and rested in His finished work, and my wife conceived. During the pregnancy, we prayed for a supernatural and painless delivery. However, it turned out to be quite the opposite.

On the day of delivery, all seemed normal until a sudden contraction and pain started to kick in after just 45 minutes of laying on the hospital bed. My wife was in unbearable pain but the doctor advised against an epidural as our baby’s heartbeat was unstable and kept dropping to below 100 beats per second (135 and above would be normal). The doctor recommended an emergency caesarean section (C–section) and sought our consent.

I murmured a prayer under my breath and spoke in tongues. I texted my care group leader to pray alongside with me and could only hope for the best. It was definitely not what we were expecting. As nervous as I was, I continued trusting in Him. After 15 minutes, our healthy baby boy was out. Praise the Lord!

While my wife was still inside the operating theatre, I received a call from her doctor that they had noticed three small cysts inside her womb while performing the C–section. She had called to ask for my permission to remove the cysts and I agreed.

As we look back at the whole ordeal, I know that God had been in control all this while. His ways are higher and He knew what was best for us. Although He did not answer our prayers for a natural delivery, the C–section allowed the doctors to detect and remove the cysts! Had they grown and developed, she would probably have to undergo an operation again. It might even affect her next pregnancy had the cysts gone undetected. Praise the Lord for His restoration of health!

And when we thought it was wonderful, He made it even sweeter beyond our imagination. We were faced with a huge five–figure bill but the Lord had it all planned out.

Our insurance does not cover emergency C–section or pregnancy related costs. However, because of the surgery to remove the cysts, some portions of the hospital and ward charges became claimable. Finally, after deducting the funds paid from our Medisave, we needed to pay only a few hundred dollars in cash! Praise the name of Jesus! He restores back to us financially as well. Indeed, He has given us the victory in Christ Jesus and holds true to His promises. To God be the glory forever and ever! Amen.

Restful Success in Children’s Studies

In 2014, my three children ended the year with poor academic results. So one of my three prayer requests in 2015 was for my children to have supernatural and restful success in their studies especially when my eldest son would go through streaming and my second daughter would be taking her Primary School Leaving Examinations (PSLE).

I started the year with new resolutions and schedules for my children hoping to instil discipline and to help them in their studies. As a mother, I believed that that was the most practical way I could help them.

However, as the year progressed, revision sessions between me and my children turned into disappointments, frustrations and angry words. The mid–year exam results for my children were an utter dismay. I was told by the form teacher that my oldest was at the verge of staying back or falling into the normal stream. At the same time, my 12–year–old might need to repeat her PSLE.

I was exhausted and came to the end of myself. All the efforts I had put in did not result in any improvement at all. Instead, these efforts strained my relationship with my children.

On 7 June 2015, Pastor Prince preached a message titled Live Life Loved by The Shepherd. Through this message, I had a revelation that the Lord loved me and my children, and wanted to take care of us. I decided to rest in the Lord and He showed me in Zechariah 4:6–7 that the breakthrough in my children’s studies would not come about by force nor by my own strength but by HIS GRACE! I was so thrilled I shared the verses with my family so we could believe in His promise in the Word together.

I also started to partake of the Holy Communion with my children every morning and declared blessings over them. I stopped all the revision activities and consciously refrained from speaking out of worry. It was not easy and when I got worried, I would listen to the sermon again and again.

All glory and praise be to Jesus who loves us! My oldest son passed his final exams and was promoted to Secondary 3. My youngest came in 4th in class and jumped two classes forward. My 12–year–old passed her PSLE and will move on to Secondary 1.

I am grateful for what He has done and I believe with all my heart that He will see us through the coming year and many more years to come. Thank you, Pastor Prince for your timely message. I am thankful for you and New Creation Church. Be blessed!

Family Blessed Because of Jesus

I started listening to Pastor Prince’s sermons in October 2010 and used to listen to his sermon CDs in my room secretly or on my MP4 player. My extended family were all devout believers, including my husband, but he got angry that I listened to other Christian CDs.

At some point, my husband began to experience some trials in life. He was retrenched and tried looking for jobs but found nothing suitable.

One Saturday, I went to Rock Gifts And Book Centre to get Pastor Prince’s sermon CD as I usually do. My husband volunteered to drive me there and when he entered the shop, he was touched by some words he saw in the shop.

He then said to me that for him to attend New Creation Church, he had to see a miracle. But I told him if he would attend the church, his miracle would follow.

We started attending New Creation Church together on the third week of January 2015. My husband began to know Jesus as a close, loving friend and he discovered that Christianity was about building a relationship with this loving God and not a religion.

He started to talk about Jesus as though he had fallen in love for the first time, and couldn’t stop talking about Him. Surprisingly, he received a call for an interview. He was offered a position and not just a job. Praise to Jesus Christ alone!

Not only so, faith crept into my mother’s heart after she heard me share about Jesus. For 30 years, she suffered from a discharge even after her womb was removed. As faith arose in her heart, she began to partake of the Holy Communion daily. In just three days, she was completely healed from her condition! Praise the Lord!

Freed from Guilt and Secure in Christ

I grew up struggling with insecurity even though I served in church from young. I felt that my relationship with God was “shakeable”.

When I was in my teens, I had a few relationships and thought that in order for me to gain love and respect from the guys I dated, I had to give myself away. Although I felt the Lord telling me not to give my body to a man, I was too weak to say no. Every time I performed the act, I did not feel any satisfaction. Instead, I felt guilty and was fearful of becoming pregnant.

This cycle continued in my next few relationships, and I was rejected by one of them because of my past. I felt lost and condemned, and lost hope of ever meeting a man who would love and respect me.

In 2011, I started to attend New Creation Church and learnt about the gospel of grace. Like the woman in the Bible who committed adultery, I too, received the gift of no condemnation. And I agree with what Pastor Prince preached in the sermon titled Experience Victory Over Sexual Immorality — sex outside of marriage is not fulfilling at all.

In church, I met a guy who loves and accepts me for who I am and he is now my fiancé. Our relationship is filled with security because Christ is at the centre of it.

I can now confess what I did in the past because I know I am forgiven and I am the righteousness of God in Christ. I believe that God has renewed my body. Jesus loves me and accepts me for who I am. It’s not what I have done but it’s all about His faithfulness to me.

Experiencing God’s Goodness After Receiving Christ

My experience with our Lord Jesus started with a chance encounter with Pastor Joseph Prince and his wife Wendy in 2012.

Back then, I was not a believer although my wife was a Christian. But I still remember very much the words Pastor Prince spoke to me that day. He told me that nothing happens by chance and he even prayed over me and my family as my wife was then pregnant. I also remembered Pastor Prince inviting us to come to church.

Due to my past conflicting views on religion, I was convinced that I could not be right with Christ. My wife often asked me to attend church but I always managed to rebuff her request.

In October 2014, my wife began to attend New Creation Church with a good friend of hers. Then in two months’ time, I attended my first church service with my wife as it was her birthday and her friend had to go overseas for work. Since it was her birthday wish for me to attend service with her, I could not say no.

After that service, seeds of Jesus’ love sowed by Pastor Prince three years ago began to sprout. Although my job required me to work on Sundays, things changed within the same week when my colleague volunteered to work every Sunday. How loving of our God to turn things around so I can spend time in His house! Shortly after, I received Christ.

That’s just the beginning of Daddy God’s work in my life. One of my wife’s prayer requests for 2015 was for me to get a job that was interesting, had good opportunities, good pay and God–fearing bosses. And in just a couple of months, I went through three rounds of interview for a management role at a well–known company.

Throughout the interview process, I rested completely in Jesus’ finished work. Before this, I had never breezed through and aced interviews like how I did this time round. And by simply relying on Daddy God’s wisdom and favour, I was offered the job despite my young age and complete lack of experience in management. I later found out that my direct boss is a believer! It’s amazing how Daddy God answers prayers so quickly and precisely!

I had favour with my team at work and my career had also taken a great turn. With this closeness and reliance on our Lord Jesus, my marriage was strengthened too. I knew from then on, it’s not whether I am right for Christ, but Jesus is always ready and right for me.

Two weeks back, I took on one of the most gruelling challenges in my life — to scale Mount Kilimanjaro. I asked many friends to join me but nobody was interested. In the end, I went alone. I booked the climb even though I didn’t have the time and strength to train for it and set off during Singapore’s Jubilee weekend.

I was never convinced I could make it but ever since I was a new creation in Christ, I felt nothing could stop me from scaling this mountain. I already have the victory in Christ.

Throughout the six–day climb, I suffered from dehydration, severe diarrhoea, colds, headaches, extreme tiredness and acute mountain syndrome (AMS). The temperature ranged from 28°C to –20°C. I began to doubt if I could do it but I continued to pray every night, crying out for God’s help, healing and strength.

Just a day before my last push for summit, I realised all my seven crew members were Christians. My tent crew even came to me and told me, “In Jesus’ name, you will reach the summit. Do not worry, Sir!” And I replied with a loud, “Amen!”

It was then that I was reminded how our Daddy Father is so good and always with us by sending His angels to watch over us. Due to my severe diarrhoea, I had to go to the loo every 30 minutes and as a result, I only slept two hours on the day we were due to make the summit. I was extremely tired and also suffered from severe bruising and swelling at my joints.

But I told my crew to bring me up to the summit, knowing that God’s favour surrounds me as with a shield and He would see me all the way up.

After 10 hours of climbing through the night, half a step at a time, I finally scaled the roof of Africa with no grain of effort from myself because I know that throughout the six–day climb, it was God who sustained me to fulfil my dream. All glory and praise to the Lord!

My wife later told me that she prayed for me to have a closer walk with God and indeed, this trip allowed me to “walk with Jesus” like never before.

My marriage and life have been transformed completely. Our family now looks forward to church every Sunday, especially my two–and–a–half–year–old princess who loves to sing, Jesus Is My Best Friend!

Thank you Pastor Prince for sowing seeds of God’s love in my life three years ago. I am now a new creation filled with complete confidence knowing that God’s wisdom, favour and peace are forever with us. All praise, glory and honour to Lord Jesus!

Nine-year-old Son Emerged Champion In International Ballet Competition

My son Kenzo had a desire to dance after watching his sister’s ballet class. Though initially very sceptical, my husband and I decided to follow Pastor Prince’s teaching to allow our children to explore and follow their inclinations within boundaries. So we let our son join the ballet class.

Two months later, in November 2012, Kenzo was invited to join a ballet company which grooms young dancers to compete locally and internationally. He would have to train for at least 16 hours a week, leaving practically no time for tuition, play or family. We held back and only agreed with peace in our hearts after hearing Pastor Prince share that the theme of the year 2013 was the Key of David and that God will open and shut the right doors for our good.

Just like any competitive sport, training was both physically and mentally exhausting for Kenzo. His school results started to dip. We questioned ourselves many times but were reminded that our job was to train him and leave everything else to Daddy God.

In August 2013, Kenzo competed in Hong Kong, came in second and was even invited to perform at the gala night. One month later, he won his first gold medal in Singapore. It was an amazing experience of Daddy God’s favour!

This year 2014, the year of greater glory, Kenzo transferred to a new school which was near home. By God’s grace and favour, he had very caring and supportive teachers who helped him to settle in with ease. He even scored three Band Ones, the top grading, for his exams.

And in June 2014, he received an honourable mention at a competition in Boston, the United States. Though Kenzo was rather disappointed at not placing better, we thanked Daddy God for the experience and the opportunity to spend family time together in Disneyland.

In August 2014, he was the only foreigner who competed in a junior ballet competition in Fukuoka, Japan. We went resting in the Lord with no expectations and we could hardly believe the results. Daddy God placed nine-year-old Kenzo first among 120 other awesome Japanese dancers aged eight to 12. It was truly the favour and grace of Almighty God!

I would like to thank Rock Kidz, the children’s ministry, for raising faith-filled, praying kids. Kenzo would pray to remain calm and to finish his dance without mistakes before he go on stage for his competitions. Our sincere appreciation goes to the youth ministry group, DARE, for the recent parenting seminar that reminded us that our most important role is to be praying parents.

And thank you, Pastor Prince, for your awesome ministry that is blessing and impacting countless families including mine!

Restful Conception

Since the day I was married to my husband, we had been trying for a baby. More than a year passed and we were still childless. People around us were also asking when we were going to have kids. Frankly, I too, had been asking the same question, but God just appeared to be silent.

I had tried all means to conceive. I even calculated the dates, avoided food that could reduce my chances of conceiving and more. Yet, nothing worked. I could not count the number of times I had cried over this and how tense my relationship with my husband had been.

When people said I just needed to have faith, I tried telling myself to have faith but deep down, I had no idea what it meant to have faith.

In early 2013, when Pastor Prince mentioned that the theme of the year was The Key of David, he said that God would be opening up His treasures in heaven and rain down His blessings. He also declared that it would be a year of open wombs where babies would be born.

Despite me questioning God, He revealed His heart to me through Jacob’s blessings. I became happier and learnt to trust that all things would turn out beautiful in His time.

By end March 2013, I discovered I was pregnant! I couldn’t believe it as we didn’t even try anything and were very relaxed!

Our miracle did not stop here. In my third trimester, I experienced early contractions and was hospitalised twice. My husband and I prayed, and trusted God that our baby would not be delivered prematurely. Our baby was eventually delivered closer to full term, after 38 weeks.

Today, my baby is an evidence of God’s love for us. We could never thank Him enough for His grace and love.

Thank You Abba. Thank You Jesus.

Heart Healed After Divorce

I am 31 years old, divorced and unemployed. I was married to my first love for six years before getting a divorce in 2010. To numb the pain, I drank heavily, smoked and refused to eat. Sometimes, I took pills together with my Whiskey and spent endless nights crying. I felt like I was left with nothing but an empty shell.

I hated myself for who I had become and hated the “other woman” who had come between my husband and me. I could not laugh and felt like my whole world had been taken away from me.

One day, my friend brought me to New Creation Church and I cried during the sermon as I heard God speak to me. Coincidentally, the message that day seemed to be talking about my situation and what I have gone through. The message also reminded me that I am and will always be loved by the Lord Jesus Christ. His unconditional love and grace has been with me all my life, and He will never desert me.

There and then, I felt immense peace sweep through my body and the pain and heartache disappeared. Since then, I have found comfort in my nightly prayers and would ask God to take away my tears and sadness when I cried alone at night. I also attended Pastor Prince's services every Sunday.

Today, I am alive and very happy because God is with me. God brought me back to His loving arms, and I know that I will always be protected and loved. Although I have not met anyone new yet, I believe God has a plan for me and it is a good one.

While I was headed for self-destruction and self-loathe, God was the light and showed me the way. Be it a job or a new love, I am sure He will provide for me. Praise God!

Victory Through Jesus’ Blood Covering

My son has refractory epilepsy and suffers from uncontrolled seizures almost every day. Because of the numerous seizures and the adverse cognitive and behavioural effects of his medication, he has learning, social and behavioural difficulties. After assessments in March 2012, the psychologist said my son’s overall intellectual ability falls in the extremely low range (around 50). 

My son often missed school and had no extra tuition. We did not teach him very much at home as we did not want to give him extra stress. The last time he passed an exam was in Primary One when he passed his math, but he consistently couldn’t pass his English exams.

Just before my son’s PSLE exams, I was stressed about how he would fare when I suddenly had a vision of blood and gold. I thought about this and what came to me was the revelation that the blood of Jesus will cover my son completely and gold meant that he will emerge victorious through Jesus Christ! I felt at peace after that and declared God's favour over him daily.

During his exams, I gave my son a small cross to put in his pencil case. I wanted to point him to Jesus and encouraged him look to the Lord whenever he had any difficulty. My son told me that he took out the cross to look at it during his first paper whenever he didn’t know what to write.  At first, I was worried that he had spent the whole time looking at the cross and not concentrating on the paper. He even had a big seizure before his Science paper.

My husband is not a believer yet, so I was glad when Pastor Prince recently shared that a mother can also take over as the spiritual head of the family. So, I just continued to declare God’s favour over our son and asked him to look at the cross whenever he wanted to.

Truly, with God, all things are possible! My son passed his PSLE exams with an aggregate score of 129. To many, this is a low score but for me, it was a miracle.

All glory to Jesus and thank you very much Pastor Prince, for all your teachings.

Restful Parenting

I am a mother of two boys. My older son is a good boy but did not perform well in his studies. Like many Singaporean parents, I provided the best tuition classes for him as I was afraid that he would not do well. However, my expectations on him dipped as years went by.

In late 2010, I realised that my son had a habit of uncontrollably plucking his own hair. As a result, there was a big bald patch on his head. I cried and started to pray for him. I also brought him to see a psychologist and visited a child guidance clinic. He was diagnosed as having an anxiety issue, but I believed that Abba would anoint him with wisdom and take away the fear in him.

In 2011, my son had to sit for his Primary School Leaving Examinations (PSLE). He failed most of his subjects during the preliminary examinations and I was so worried that the school would pull him out. As such, my husband gave up his job as an engineer to stay at home to coach our boy.

As a family, we started partaking of the Holy Communion with our two boys every night. For the first time after that, I experienced God’s peace and was not afraid to rely on Abba.

Soon, I cancelled most of my son’s tuition classes and my faith grew stronger each day by feeding on His Word. I would also proclaim that my Jesus boy was in Abba’s good hands while I was at work or even in the toilet!

Miraculously, when the PSLE results were out, my boy had not only one but three big Cs and one A! Praise Jesus!

Although 2011 was a roller-coaster year for me and my family, I am not worried about 2012! As Pastor Prince had shared, I truly believe 2012 will be the year where my family will be receiving His unceasing fruitfulness and overflowing blessings! All glory to Jesus Christ! Amen!

Unspeakable Peace!

I lived a destructive lifestyle since I was 18 years old. Prior to that, there was a lot of hurt in my childhood years as my parents quarrelled all the time.

I always felt worthless and was afraid to be alone. I didn't care how people treated me as long as they stayed with me. I also had no peace in life, and nothing made me happy. As time went on, I grew depressed and felt that life had no more purpose anymore.

One day, I was not able to sleep and was channel surfing when I saw an Asian man preaching on TV. It was Pastor Prince! He shared about how much Jesus loves us, and how the Lord’s finished work on the cross was an overpayment for all our sins. Suddenly, I felt the Lord’s love for me, and an unspeakable peace came over me.

There and then, I said the salvation prayer while I was lying in my bed. I spoke to Jesus for the first time, and told Him that I didn’t know how to get out of a bad relationship that I was in. I told the Lord that I trusted Him and believed that He would take care of me.

The Lord was indeed faithful and He took care of every situation in my life! As I heard more about Jesus through Pastor Prince’s sermons, and read Destined To Reign, the Lord effortlessly transformed me from the inside out.

As I look back now, it feels as if I have never lived a destructive lifestyle before. I am now a new creation, and my life testifies that Daddy God loves and saves!

More importantly, the change was effortless by the grace of Jesus. It had nothing to do with my willpower, but by the divine power of Christ at work in me! Thank you, Pastor Prince, for unveiling Jesus' beauty through His finished work at the cross!

Wife’s Supernatural Conception After Waiting For Five Years

In 2004, my wife Janice and I got married at the age of 24. We wanted to have four children by the age of 30 so we started trying for a child in late 2004. Initially, we thought it would be easy to conceive, but it turned out to be month after month of disappointments.

On the surface, nothing seemed to be a problem as my wife's monthly menstrual cycle was regular, and we were both in good health. We prayed about it, and tried methods like taking her temperature and tracking her ovulation to increase our chances of conceiving. After trying for two years, nothing happened. We were very frustrated and unhappy. We decided to go to a doctor to take some tests. But the test results came back normal — there was nothing wrong with us!

We were at our wit’s end and even started reading up on in vitro fertilisation and adoption. To us, they were expensive options, especially since we were still holding on to our dream of having four children. After four years of trying, we had almost given up hope. By then, instead of praying for a child, we were praying for God to take away our desire to have children.

Then, during one Sunday service in early 2009, Pastor Prince asked for a couple to stand as he wanted to pray for them. God had specifically told him that there was a couple who had been trying for a child unsuccessfully for many years. Initially, we were hesitant as no one else stood up. But when Pastor Prince didn’t stop asking, we knew that this word was for us. We stood up and Pastor Prince told us to hold on to our faith, and that our miracle child was coming.

Around July 2009, we started partaking of the Holy Communion daily. Three months later, my wife started gaining weight despite an intensive exercise regime. We felt that something was “wrong” and decided to take a pregnancy test. The results came out positive! We were shocked and couldn’t believe what we saw. We had used almost 20 test kits over the years and the results always showed negative. We made an appointment with a gynaecologist. The scan showed that my wife was already in her eighth week of pregnancy, which meant that she was already approaching her second trimester!

Our baby girl is now four months old. Praise God for He is indeed the God of miracles!

No injuries after car lands upside down during crash

I often drive long distances to visit family and friends. During these long drives, I listen to the Word of God through my Joseph Prince (JP) app.

One day, while driving and listening to a sermon, I was struck by a speeding car. The impact spun my car around and caused it to hit a guardrail and roll until it finally landed on its roof. All I could say was the name of Jesus. I remember hanging upside down and still hearing the message The Kairos Year of Right Time, Right Place based on Ecclesiastes 9:11. It was at that time my smart watch sounded an alarm and called emergency services.

Releasing my seatbelt, I crawled out of the car and onto the cold snow with my bare feet. The impact was so great that even my shoes and socks had come off. But there I stood, with the Lord as my witness, having no broken bones, no concussion, not even a scratch. Jesus, He really did take it ALL!

Now I believe that Abba Father will restore my car that has been destroyed so that I can continue to visit the people I love. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your continued faithfulness in bringing forth grace and truth.

Protected From A Huge Storm Through Psalm 91

I have been following Pastor Joseph Prince’s ministry on TV and online since 2012, as I have been working overseas for the past 19 years.

In June this year, my three daughters and I visited my best friend and her family in the United States of America. During our trip, my friend and her family drove my daughters and I to St Louis, Missouri, for vacation. We were in the car with my friend, while her husband and two sons were in another car.

Upon our arrival in St Louis, we drove around looking for a restaurant. As we stopped at a traffic light junction, a sudden major storm and strong gusts of wind struck. The powerful wind caused the top part of a traffic light pole beside our car to break, and a few makeshift metal barriers close to our car fall to the ground.

We started to panic as we were afraid that the wind might cause other makeshift metal barriers to fly towards our car. My friend and I began praying Psalm 91 over all of us. I could only remember one line from Psalm 91, so I kept reciting that “Lord Jesus is our refuge and our fortress” and asking Jesus for protection. I also told my daughters to call out to Jesus and pray for protection.  We kept declaring Psalm 91 and praying in tongues for about 10 minutes before the storm gradually abated. I felt a great sense of relief as I knew that God had calmed the storm for us. We quickly drove to the nearest petrol station to take shelter and to wait for the storm to subside.

Later, my friend’s husband and sons told us that during the storm, a big tree that was beside their car had fallen but fortunately away from their car, sparing them from harm. At that time, they were also praying for protection from the storm.

I thank and praise the Lord for protecting us from this storm, and for always protecting us in times of danger. Psalm 91 is truly the prayer of protection, and indeed the Lord will not leave us nor forsake (Joshua 1:5).

All praise and glory to the Lord!

Positioned at right time & place during holiday trip

My wife and I have been experiencing many right time, right place moments even before the theme was released, just like Pastor Prince shared when he declared 2023 as The Kairos Year Of Right Time, Right Place.

We travelled to Japan during the last two weeks of December 2022. Every day, we would pray and declare that Jesus was with us as our travel companion.

We visited many cities, including Sapporo. The day before we arrived at Sapporo, many train rides were cancelled due to a blizzard. But when we reached, it stopped snowing, and we could take the trains there.

Then, we left for Osaka, where we experienced lots of favour with the people we met and the servers at the restaurants we visited. They gave us freebies and also befriended us despite the language barrier. We even got to dine in places that required reservations to be made months ahead, but there were always seats for us when we walked in due to no-shows by other guests.

Finally, when we returned to Singapore, we learnt that we had boarded one of the last few flights back due to an unexpected closure of the air traffic system. Most of the flights had to be cancelled or make a detour, causing many the passengers to be stranded.

I can’t express how loved we felt on this trip. With Jesus, we get to enjoy the best moments at the right time, right place. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for sharing the theme of the year!

Family Protected From COVID-19

I live in London together with my husband and our 5-year-old daughter. We had rented a room in our house to a nurse who works in the hospital. About two months ago, she started taking care of COVID-19 patients. During that period, the virus began to peak in the country.

At the start of last month, she told us that she could be infected by the virus. At that time, my parents-in-law, who were on a holiday and staying with us, could not return home as all flights from London were cancelled.

Later, our tenant tested positive for the virus and we all had to be quarantined for 14 days. I had heard Pastor Prince’s messages on the anointing oil, and had been applying the oil on my daughter’s and husband’s heads before they slept.

I also applied the anointing oil on every door in my house, including the door of the room where my parents-in-law stayed. My daughter and I had also been partaking of the Holy Communion as taught by Pastor Prince.

Here’s the good news! Even though our tenant was infected, and we shared the same bathroom and kitchen, none of our family members caught the virus! Our tenant also recovered and was granted permission to go back to work.

I truly believe that trusting the Lord’s finished work, partaking of the Holy Communion and applying the anointing oil were the keys to our protection. Praise the Lord, and God bless Pastor Prince!

Relative Healed Of COVID-19 Symptoms And Parents Protected From Virus After Partaking Of The Holy Communion

I am living in New York City, the epicentre of the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States.

Recently, a relative who stays with my parents, developed a cough and fever that refused to go away. He was tested for COVID-19 and days later, the results were found to be positive.

My parents were scared and panicky when they received the news as my mum has asthma, and my dad has a heart condition. When my mother called to update me, I encouraged her to partake of the Holy Communion as often as possible with my dad as taught by Pastor Prince.

That evening, my mother also asked the relative who was not a believer if he would allow them to pray for him and partake of the Holy Communion together. He agreed, and everyone in the household partook of the Communion together.

The next morning, the relative who was sick woke up soaked in sweat. And his cough, fever and congestion in the chest were gone!

Since then, it has been more than 14 days, and no one else in the household got infected with COVID-19. I believe partaking of the Lord’s Supper had healed my relative and delivered the rest of my family from the virus. Glory to God and thank you, Pastor Prince, for your teaching.

Protected from car accident after reading Pastor Prince’s devotional on protection

I was driving along a route that I use almost every day. Right in front of me was a van on a single carriage lane. Suddenly, the driver slammed his brakes, and made a sharp turn to the right, colliding with an oncoming car.

The collusion thrust the oncoming car into a ditch by the road, while the van spun uncontrollably towards my direction. It stopped right on the other side of the lane and did not hit my car. The impact on the two vehicles was devastating, but the drivers only sustained slight injuries, and I thank the Lord that no lives were lost.

The car driver who was hit mentioned that she has been driving for 12 years, and had never met an accident. Right there, I remember that Pastor Prince had shared that we should put our trust in the Lord, and not our experience for protection.

That very same day, I read Pastor Prince’s daily devotional, titled Stand Upon God’s Promises where he shared on declaring God’s promise of protection in Psalm 91. I believe that the Lord had protected me and placed me at the scene to pray for those involved, and not just be a spectator.

Thank you so much, Pastor Prince, for your daily devotionals that are loaded with so much revelation of the Lord and have been so timely—meeting my daily needs on many occasions.

Protected From COVID-19

Last month, four of my colleagues and I attended a business meeting. About two weeks later, we were informed that two attendees at the meeting had contracted the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19).

We were assured that the two attendees were seated far away from us. I did not think much about it since I did not experience any symptoms and 14 days had passed.

The next day, we received news that one of the colleagues who was with us at the business meeting, returned to work after being away for Chinese New Year. He was observed to be very sick, and was coughing and running a temperature. But he continued to report for work at another worksite. He was then asked to leave in the afternoon, and go to the National Centre for Infectious Diseases (NCID) to be tested for COVID-19.

That same evening, the rest of us who were at the same business meeting with him were asked to go for the tests as well. That day, we were cleared to go home, but the colleague who was sick remained for further testing. Eventually, he tested positive for COVID-19.

Contact tracing was carried out, and three other colleagues who had close contact with him were put on Quarantine Order. More than 30 colleagues who worked in the same building with him on that day were put on Leave of Absence for two weeks. I was also required to work from home as part of the measures taken by the company.

During this time, fear crept into my heart as I kept hearing about new cases in Singapore each day. I also started to get paranoid. So, I listened to Pastor Prince’s sermons and also read his book Eat Your Way To Life And Health again. I prayed that my colleague who was tested positive would be the last person from the business meeting to be infected. I also claimed the promises of Psalm 91 over me and my family.

Eighteen days later, my family and I remained healthy, and none of us came down with the virus. God is truly our protector!

Dental Clinic Protected From Damage

I work as a dentist. Two weeks ago, I was informed by my staff that water was leaking in the neighbouring units.

As I was in the middle of a dental procedure, I could not do anything, even though I was very concerned. Immediately, I was reminded of Pastor Prince’s preaching on Psalm 91. Under my breath, I declared “A thousand may fall at my side and ten thousand at my right hand, but it shall not come near me.”

As soon as the dental procedure was completed, I rushed out to take a look at the neighbouring units. I was stunned to see that sections of their ceiling boards had caved in and their carpets were soaked in water about 2cm high.

I found out that the mess was caused by a burst water pipe due to renovation works happening in the unit above my clinic. The building’s management team were on site. People were in despair and it seemed like it would take weeks to repair the extensive damage, not to mention the disruption of business.

I quickly rushed back to my clinic to check for possible damage. To my surprise, my clinic was dry. I lifted our floor boards where our water pipes and electrical wires are laid and there was not a single drop of water.

When the building’s management team came and checked our premises, they could not believe that my clinic was not affected at all as all the units on the same level share the same ceiling and floor plates. I simply told them it was God’s grace and gave thanks to the Lord!

Praise the Lord for His protection. He is truly our peace and our shalom.

Kept Safe From Python

Towards the end of last year, I came across Pastor Prince’s sermons on Psalm 91 that made me want to delve deeper into God’s Word, and so I started reading Pastor Prince’s book, The Prayer Of Protection.

At the start of the new year, my work took me to a part of Thailand where I was surrounded by lush jungle and wildlife.

One rainy night, I used the light from my mobile phone to navigate the dimly lit pathways to my front porch and saw a straw mat placed outside the door which wasn’t there before.

Thinking that it was probably placed there by the housekeeper, I took another step towards it. As I was about to put my foot on the mat, I saw that it moved slightly. It was then that I realised that it was a coiled-up python!

My heart leapt in shock. I was mere inches away from a snake! I backed away immediately. Thankfully, the python slithered away quickly. I immediately got into my room and slammed the door shut before checking the room to ensure that there were no snakes lurking around.

That night, still feeling shaken, I read The Prayer Of Protection Devotional and that day’s devotional reading was aptly titled You Shall Not Be Afraid. It reminded me of Psalm 91:5 which says, “You shall not be afraid of the terror by night…” and in verse 11, it gives the reason why we don’t have to be afraid: “For He shall give His angels charge over you, to keep you in all your ways. In their hands they shall bear you up, lest you dash your foot against a stone.”

As I read and repeated the verse aloud, I realised that I was kept safe by His angels. By His grace, God Almighty made sure that I took a second look before I stepped on the python. Indeed, God is good. I calmed down and was able to sleep soundly that night.

All praise and glory to God!

Peaceful Trip Abroad Despite Unrests

In November last year, my husband and I travelled to Hong Kong together with our team to conduct a workshop. There was much unrest in Hong Kong as protests were going on. Just two days prior to our flight there, a big protest took place next to the apartment we booked.

Due to the situation, even concerts were cancelled. Despite that, the organiser of the workshop told us that the situation had calmed down, and advised us to proceed on with our plans.

By God’s grace, we were able to carry out our workshop as scheduled. What was even more amazing was the fact that there was no riot or protest when we were there. According to our Hong Kong partner, the week that we were there happened to be one of the most peaceful weeks in six months.

We realised that it was also the voting weekend in Hong Kong, and there were speculations that the next protest was taking place a day after we left the country.

Pastor Prince always reminds us that we are greatly blessed and highly favoured because of Christ’s finished work. During the trip, I felt so well-protected by God. What seemed like the most dangerous place became a place of peace for us!

On top of that, our workshop was packed, and it was a success. Praise the Lord!

Protected From A Near-Accident

A few weeks ago, I was crossing the road near my office with a colleague. The traffic light had just turned red and the cars were moving to a stop. The middle lane was not clearly visible to us as there were vehicles in both the first and third lanes.

Suddenly, I felt an urge to pull my colleague back as we were approaching the middle of the crossing. That was when a speeding car zoomed past us at just inches away from us. We were in shock.

We heard loud honks as cars from two opposing traffic lanes tried to avoid the speeding car. Thankfully, no accidents happened that day.

The road which we were crossing was one that we use multiple times a day. We are always mindful of the traffic signals whenever we cross that road as the traffic is heavy around the area. Despite our safety awareness and mindfulness, an awful accident almost happened.

We thank the Lord for His protection. How wonderful it is to know that we are always loved and watched over by the Lord.

Kept Safe From Bomb Blast

In April, my husband and I were travelling around Negombo, Sri Lanka. As Pastor Prince has always shared—we should never take protection for granted. Hence, throughout our travels, we would partake of the Holy Communion in our room, and give thanks to Abba for keeping us safe.

On Good Friday, we dropped by one of the churches for a short visit before we flew home on a red eye flight. Thereafter, we rode in our hired car around Negombo, passing by many churches, including St Sebastian Church. Traffic was slower there as the roads were lined with vehicles, and many people were walking in the streets. The church compound was also overflowing with worshippers.

Days later, we found out from the news that a bomb was detonated at St Sebastian Church that Sunday. I thank our heavenly Father for His divine protection. The bomb blast could have happened anytime and anywhere, and we could have been hurt or even killed in the blast. We can never protect ourselves, only our heavenly Father can protect us and keep us safe as He promises in Psalm 91.

Divinely protected from possible paralysis

In 2016, I hit my head while diving into a swimming pool. I did not think much about it at that time as everything seemed fine and there was no pain, except for some minimal discomfort that lasted for many months.

Then in 2018, I was called up by the army to go for in-camp training. By then, I was 40 years old and had to undergo an extensive medical check-up. At the check-up, I told the doctor that I was suffering from a neck pain.

Subsequently, I ended up seeing a specialist on 13 December 2018 for an MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) scan. On 18 December, I went back for the results, and it was only then that I discovered that my neck was severely dislocated from the accident two years ago.

I had two skipped facet joints (a condition where the joints were out of place) and they were pressing on my spinal cord. According to my operating doctor, a single skipped facet joint would have been enough to result in paralysis. He said it was a miracle that I had two skipped facet joints and could still walk.

Doctors who had seen my MRI scan also said that I should have been paralysed on the day of my accident and that my neck was highly unstable. The slightest disturbance from yet another accident—be it a fall or hit on the head—could cause me to be paralysed. I was told that I needed a major surgery to correct this condition immediately.

Another common response from the doctors was that I was “extremely lucky”. I knew it wasn’t luck but the Lord who had kept me safe. During these two years, I had gone on a mission trip and several work trips overseas, carried heavy loads while moving house, done countless activities at the swimming pool, gone jogging and even went on a hiking trip recently. Life could have turned out very differently for me and my family if not for His divine protection.  

The day after receiving the MRI result, I went for a five-hour surgery. It was a smooth and successful surgery. Again by the grace of God, the recovery was supernaturally fast. I was in the Intensive Care Unit on Thursday morning, and was back on my feet the same afternoon. That same week, I was discharged on Saturday morning in time for Christmas. A week later, the wound was almost 100 per cent healed. Praise the Lord!

No More Low-Lying Placenta, Experienced Smooth Delivery

My husband and I had been trying for a second child without success for two years since our first child was born. 

Hence, we decided to seek medical advice. In August 2017, we went for a check-up and found out that I have endometriosis, a condition where endometrial tissue grows outside the uterus, and may drastically reduce the chances of conceiving naturally. 

The specialist referred us to a hospital for IVF (in-vitro fertilisation) treatment. Knowing how mentally and physically tough it is to go through IVF, I prepared myself by saying, “If this is what I have to go through, I know the Lord will be with me throughout the whole process.”

The specialist ordered a series of tests for us to undergo before we could proceed with the treatment itself. Before we began the tests, my husband and I held on to God’s faithfulness and one of our three prayer requests for 2018 was that we would have a baby. 

Shortly after, I conceived naturally. No tests and IVF were required! Hallelujah! Throughout the first and second trimesters of my pregnancy, my placenta was lying low in my uterus, a condition known as placenta previa. This increased the risk of bleeding during pregnancy and delivery. 

By week 30, the placenta continued to be low-lying, and covered the cervix, which meant that I would not be able to give birth naturally, and would need to consider a caesarean section. 

The obstetrician commented that it was unlikely for the placenta to move up, given that I was already in the third trimester. She advised me to go on light duties, and to immediately head to the emergency department if I experienced any signs of bleeding or labour. 

We continued to pray as we knew God’s plan would be the best for me and our baby. By week 34, the placenta surprisingly moved up so much that it was no longer covering the cervix, and a normal delivery was possible. This could only be God’s work! 

One day before my planned induction, I went into labour. My labour was a short five hours and my baby was born with the umbilical cord around his neck. 

He was born slightly blue, but recovered quickly and was assessed by the paediatrician to be healthy. We are really thankful that God has kept my baby safe throughout the delivery process, and we were back home 24 hours later. 

We are really thankful to God for Pastor Joseph Prince’s teachings and his ministry, the church and its postnatal support group who are always there for us. 

Thank you for glorifying the Lord Jesus!

Shielded In Accident

In 2014, my niece and I went on a tour in Hokkaido, Japan. It was the fourth day of our tour and we were on board a coach heading for Sapporo. 

Both of us were seated on the twin seats right behind the driver. We had just put on our MP3 player and were enjoying some light moments listening to Pastor Prince's sermon. 

All we can recall now is that when both of us next looked up, we saw an oncoming truck right in front of our coach. We had no time to do anything else except to cover one another. We also had no safety belts to protect ourselves. We were stunned, and I remembered calling out: “Jesus, Jesus, Jesus.” 

Oh, the divine saving power of His name! Both my niece and I were covered with broken glass and I could feel glass in my mouth, yet we walked away with only minor bruises, and were able to continue our holiday after spending a day in the hospital.

Of the 33 people in our group, four required stitches. The tour guide seated next to us suffered severe cuts on his face and the driver died on the spot. 

We had been taking Holy Communion every morning, and the team I serve with in church had prayed and blessed us before our trip. We know that it was His blood that covered and protected us. 

It was as the Bible says in Psalm 91:7—A thousand may fall at our side, and ten thousand at our right hand, but it shall not come near us. 

There was death in front of us, a broken glass window to my right, and injuries beside and behind us, yet we were so shielded that we walked away free. All praise to our Lord.

Protected From An Attack In New York

On the morning of 18 May 2017, my sister and I were at Times Square in New York hoping to get discounted tickets for a musical. But the available seats were not good and we left disappointed. We then met a couple who offered us cheap and good tickets for another show that we could purchase online. I’m usually sceptical of such offers, but for some reason, I said yes. We tried to get the tickets online but somehow couldn’t. We got frustrated and rushed to the theatre’s box office and got help to purchase our tickets. 

When we walked out of the box office, I spotted a clothing store and decided to buy a pair of jeans from it. But I had to wait for 10 to 15 minutes before I could pay for the item as the cashier was rather slow. 

When we were about to leave the store, we saw a lady lying motionless on the ground a few metres away from the entrance. Curious, I took a photo from the shop window. Then, we heard a store assistant saying that a guy had killed several people along the street. By then, the police had arrived and told us to evacuate immediately. As we left, we saw more casualties. 

I later found out that a mentally-ill driver had driven against the traffic and onto the sidewalk in Times Square, hitting pedestrians along the way. He killed a tourist and injured 22 others. All this happened just three minutes before I took the picture from the store. 

There is no doubt that if I had not bought the pair of jeans, we would have been on that sidewalk at that very moment. In fact, if we had not gone through the hassle of getting the tickets, we would probably be checking out Times Square that very day. 

God had arranged our circumstances to steer us away from danger. Thank you, Pastor Prince for preaching on Psalm 91 and praying for our safety every Sunday. I even have a Psalm 91 card given by the church some years back in my wallet.

Husband Protected From Sharp Blade In Food

It’s not every day that I pray or ask God for protection. But on 21 June 2018, I found time to pray for my family as I folded the laundry. 

In the evening, I ordered a takeaway from a restaurant and as my husband started eating, he bit into something hard and spat it out. 

We quickly threw away the rest of the food and as I was washing the dishes, I discovered that the hard item he spat out belonged to a blade from a blender! 

As my husband doesn’t normally chew his food carefully, he could have swallowed the sharp blade. We were also amazed that he didn’t even get a cut in his mouth. Praise Jesus for His protection!

God’s Protection In Advance

In early 2018, I made arrangements to bring my parents on a family trip to Osaka, Japan in June. However, my efforts were futile as the flights were full and the hotels were completely booked.

As a result, I was forced to change our itinerary and head to Kyoto which was two hours away from Osaka. At that time, I was rather upset and shared my disappointment with my daughter.

On 18 June 2018, during our trip in Japan, a magnitude 6.0 earthquake hit Osaka, and many people were injured. As for us in Kyoto, we only experienced a mild earthquake of magnitude 3.0 and we were unscathed in the hotel.

Now, I know why I could not book our trip to Osaka even though it was six months in advance. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for sharing that our heavenly Father goes ahead of us to protect us. All glory to Jesus!

Protected From Motorcycle Malfunction

One morning, I was riding my motorcycle to work when I detected the smell of petrol. The signal lights and horn had also not been working when I turned on the engine. 

As I was running late for work, I did not bother to check what was wrong. I continued to ride the motorcycle and use hand signals to make my way to the train station where I parked the motorcycle. 

When I checked my motorcycle that evening, I discovered that the hose that connected the petrol tank to the calibrator had ruptured, and petrol was seeping into the battery box directly below the tank.

Somehow, the connector of the battery had come loose that morning and that was why the signal lights and horn were not functioning. If the battery connector had not come loose, my motorcycle could have caught fire, and I would have been blown up together with it. 

I'm so thankful to Jesus for His divine protection and for always watching over me.

God Protected Her from a Gunman on Campus

I am currently studying in America at the University of Texas, Austin. God has truly been good to me and I want share about God's amazing protection over me.

I do not usually check my email before going to school, but on 29 September 2010, my breakfast was taking a long time to cook and I felt prompted to check my email. That was when I found out that there was a gunman on campus! The whole campus was in lockdown. In fact, several of my friends who had gone to school without checking their emails were stuck in the building for several hours before being released. Although no one was hurt, I thank God that I was spared not only the actual danger of being shot, but also the hours of fear and agony of being trapped in the building.

Pastor Prince, you are right. The Lord protects His own sheep. Even though I am in another country, my heavenly Father still blesses and protects me. We are truly blessed wherever we go!

God’s Protection from Two Disasters

I am Japanese and my husband is Singaporean. We have been living in Japan for more than three years with our two young children. My husband and I were invited to New Creation Church for the first time in 2008 when we came to visit our family in Singapore.

After that, we decided to attend New Creation Church whenever we visited Singapore to hear the gospel of grace. We had been very blessed by the messages and the brothers and sisters in church.

We are currently in Singapore for a visit. When my husband and I planned for this visit, we had also planned to fly to Christchurch, New Zealand, to visit my sister-in-law and her family in February 2011. However, my sister-in-law and her family decided to go on a holiday so we did not visit them. Then, in late February 2011, Christchurch was hit by a huge earthquake. Thank God that Jesus had protected my family, including my sister-in-law and her family, for they were away when the earthquake hit.

Before we left Japan for this visit, we had to go through a long administrative process for the renewal of our rented property. What seemed like a very simple process at first, took much longer than expected and we were really frustrated. Little did we know that God was in control of the timing. If we had left for Singapore earlier, we would have returned to Japan earlier and thus, experience the earthquake.

Also, when we were about to book our air tickets to Singapore, one of our New Creation Church friends recommended us to buy one-year open tickets. With our one-year open tickets, we can now choose to return to Japan later to avoid the present circumstances such as power shutdowns and shortage of food supply, without any penalty. God has divinely protected us!

At one of the Sunday services in March 2011, Pastor Lawrence preached about being at the right place, at the right time. He said that we cannot place ourselves at the right place, at the right time by our own human efforts, but only God can. Amen!

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for preaching the gospel of grace.

Kept Safe in a Multi-Car Collision

In early 2010, my best friend and I decided to visit our friend who is staying in Malaysia. Before our trip, my best friend had always wanted to pass me a bottle of anointing oil which her aunt bought for me from Israel. However, she always forgot to bring it along whenever we meet.

On the day of our trip, she finally remembered and passed me the bottle of anointing oil at the boarding gate. I immediately opened the bottle and told her we should apply the oil and pray for a safe flight and trip.

That night, our friend in Malaysia took us out for dinner, and we stayed out till the wee hours of the morning. On our way back, our car was involved in a multi-car collision. The impact was so great that the airbag was activated. The windscreen was shattered into pieces, the front bumper was crushed and fell off, and there was smoke coming out from our car.

Yet miraculously, we were able to open the car doors and walk out totally unhurt, without even a scratch! All of us, including our Malaysian friend who is not a believer, believed that it must have been God’s protection over us! We believe it was the anointing oil that protected us from harm! God really works in wonderful ways.

God had even arranged our seats in the car to protect us. Initially, our Malaysian friend wanted to sit in the front passenger seat, and she has a habit of not wearing her seat belt. Somehow, she changed her mind and decided to take the backseat instead. Had she taken the front passenger seat without wearing the seat belt, she would most likely have smashed into the windscreen!

Today, my best friend, who was not attending church since we left school more than 15 years ago, is attending New Creation Church with me. We have also recently started serving in church. I was also water baptised recently after having received Christ 20 years ago. We feel so blessed to be alive. God is indeed a God who saves! Thank you Jesus! I am alive today because of You!

Protected from Two Near Car Accidents

I am a freelance satellite engineer and I was involved in some of the broadcasts for the World Cup matches in South Africa. One of my broadcasts was in Cape Town which is almost a 16-hour drive from Johannesburg.

On the way back from Cape Town, after driving for four hours, my driver said he was tired so I took over the wheel while he slept. It was about 10pm at that time. I was driving the van between 150 to 180km/hr and midway, I dozed off. Suddenly, a yellow truck appeared in my dream and in that instance, I woke up and jammed on the brakes so hard that the van skidded. Thank God, for there, about 5 metres in front of us, was a truck! My driver woke up and asked me what happened but I just said nothing, in case he got frightened.

Then we changed shift and he took over the wheel while I slept. Suddenly, two trucks appeared in front of us, on our lane! My driver quickly swerved to the left to avoid the trucks. Imagine if he did not rest! He would not have been able to react so quickly to avoid an accident. God is good! I want to thank Jesus for preserving my life!

God Kept Floodwaters at Bay

I received news that from 11 to 13 January 2011, Brisbane was going to experience a major flood. This included the area where I am living in. According to the Brisbane City Council's map of where the flood would hit, my apartment was right in the middle of a flood zone, due to the low-lying vicinity and proximity to the Brisbane River.

My wife and I used Psalm 91 to proclaim God’s protection over us and we partook of the Holy Communion. We reminded ourselves that we have divine protection because we are crowned with God’s glory and honour.

I stayed at a friend’s place for a few days as the power supply company had turned off our home’s electric supply for at least three days. I was concerned about my home as it has four levels of basement. If they flooded, the infrastructure would be damaged and the place would give off a bad stench. I would also need to clean the silt and mud deposited by the flood.

The flood came and by 12 January 2011, areas that no one thought would be affected were totally flooded with water. However, at my place, the floodwaters came to the first street, then the next, and when it hit my street, the water bypassed my apartment and flooded the neighbouring houses. Three days later, I could still see my neighbours pumping water out of their basements. As for me, the lowest level of my basement was only flooded to ankle-deep. I was able to pump all the water out within a day. Had it not been for God’s protection, all four levels of my basement would have been flooded like my neighbouring apartments. Praise God for His protection over me and my home!

Protected from a Boat Accident at Mersing, Johor

Every year, my family and I would visit my aunt’s place to celebrate Christmas with her. This year, she cancelled the party because she was feeling tired and wanted to rest before visiting her sons and grandchildren in Dubai. My husband and I were supposed to go on a fishing trip in Johor during the New Year weekend. Since the party at my aunt’s place was cancelled, we decided to bring forward our fishing trip to the Christmas weekend. My husband was even happier with this change in plan because he is a fishing fanatic and could not wait to go fishing.

However, my aunt called again the following morning and told us that she would like to have the Christmas party again. Not wanting to disappoint her, we agreed to postpone our fishing trip.

We all had a great time feasting at the party. On Monday, 27 December 2010, we were shocked to read in The Straits Times that three Singaporeans had died and two were still missing after a boat, carrying 29 passengers, sank off Mersing, Johor at about 1.30pm the day before.

If we had gone for our fishing trip that weekend, we would have definitely taken that same boat back because we had planned to leave right after lunch. I shudder to think that we could have been among the passengers trapped inside the cabin of the capsized boat. Even if we had survived an ordeal like this, we would have been psychologically scarred by this incident. My daughter had just received a posting to be a coast guard and she could have been traumatised by this. And I, as her mother, would probably be so worried when she is out at sea.

To date, I still do not know why my aunt changed her mind about having the Christmas party but I am certain about one thing — God had protected us. He is a good God who is so faithful to us. To Him be all the glory and praise!

No Dents on His Taxi

I am a taxi driver. On 7 October 2010, I was on the slip road turning from Newton Circus to Thomson Road. As I was waiting to make the turn, the rear of my taxi was hit by another taxi. There was a loud bang and my taxi jerked forward.

I came out of my car to check and found out that my taxi’s rear was all right except for some minor scratches. The other party’s car was also not seriously damaged. I had expected serious damage which could cost me downtime and money. I really thank Jesus for His goodness and mercy. I told the driver to be careful because he looked very sleepy. This is the second time since I started driving my taxi in June last year when I was hit at the rear without a dent in my car. Praise the Lord for His finished work!

Saved From a Serious Car Accident

On Monday, 18 October 2010 at 7.25am, I was driving my 6-year-old son to school in Woodlands. As I exited from the Seletar Expressway into Woodlands Avenue 2, I approached a traffic light junction with heavy traffic. At that time, my son and I were listening to Pastor Prince’s sermon CD in the car and I was amazed by how God had saved Noah and his family from the flood. Suddenly, I heard a loud bang and felt something hit the back of my car. The next thing I knew, my car was flung into the air. It overturned, landed on its roof, and spun a distance to a halt.

As the car was spinning, I knew we had met with a serious accident. I knew in my heart that if we crashed into anything we could be dead or badly injured. I started screaming, “Jesus!” at least five times until the car finally came to a halt. As I was screaming, my hands were holding onto the steering wheel tightly. I could not even hold my boy. I could only turn my head to look at him. He was sitting beside me that morning. His body was miraculously held to the contour of the seat. Even though we were spinning upside down and he only had a seat belt strapped across his body, his head and legs were not dangling from his seat. His neck could have been broken from the impact of the crash but he was okay. While seat belts are important, I knew that it was Jesus who hugged us tightly and saved our lives!

My first instinct was to get out as I feared a petrol leak which could result in an explosion. So, I unbuckled the both of us and opened my door. My son and I crawled out of the wreck without a scratch or whiplash. We stood by the side of the road and a lot of passers-by came to our aid. The small car that knocked into our car was speeding so fast that after sending us flying, it screeched ahead and knocked into another black car and an orange bus. The entire accident caused a massive traffic jam that morning.

After we got out of the car wreck, the picture of Jesus bleeding on the cross kept flashing in my mind. I knew that my son and I need not bleed on the road that morning because Jesus shed His blood for us. Though unharmed, we were urged to follow the ambulance to get a check-up. The driver of the black car that was hit was in a worse state than us, even though our car was more badly damaged than his.

After gaining composure, I went back to my wrecked car to get my bag and my son’s school bag with the help of some passers-by. Pastor Prince’s message was still playing loudly although the car was in such a bad state. Someone wanted to take my car key out but I told him there was no need to. The car was already a wreck and I saw no point in keeping the key. I wanted God’s Word to be played so that everyone who was present would know that Jesus is the one who saved our lives. In my previous church, we were given materials and tasked to go out to be a witness for Jesus, but I always found it very difficult. But that morning, it was effortless and restful to be a witness of the glory of God. I told everyone who came to our aid that Jesus had saved us.

When my husband came to meet us at the hospital, he shared with us that he was also driving to work around the time of the car accident, and how he felt prompted by the Holy Spirit to switch off his radio and pray in tongues. He also spoke out positive words of favour, something that we had learnt in church the day before. I believed the Lord must have prompted him to pray for us during the time of the car accident.

Later in the day, a lady who had stopped to help us at the accident scene called to thank me. I thought I should be the one thanking her instead! She told me that she and her husband had been struggling spiritually in recent months. But they were very blessed by what she saw and heard (Pastor Prince’s message playing from the car) today.

On Friday, 22 October 2010, my husband and I went to collect the wrecked car for assessment. The car was in such a sorry state. Even my son’s new water bottle had some scratches on it yet we came out unscathed. As we were checking the car, I realised that all the doors were jammed and could not be opened. The only door that could be opened was the one we had used to get out. All glory to Jesus!

My family and I are recovering well from the shock and trauma of the accident. I have even started driving again. After what happened, what more is there to fear? Jesus turned a possibly tragic accident into a victorious accident. No amount of safe driving could have saved our lives, only Jesus and nothing else!

I would like to convey my deepest thanks and appreciation to Pastor Prince and his ministry. I am truly grateful that Pastor Prince preaches grace so radically so that today, we can also experience Jesus so radically.

Saved from a Fallen Ceiling Light

On 14 August 2010 at around 9.30pm, I was watching the live telecast of the opening ceremony of the Youth Olympic Games in my living room.

During the commercial break, I stepped away to go to the bedroom. Within two minutes, I heard a very loud bang. My family rushed into the living room and saw that the ceiling light had crashed onto the floor. The ceiling light was about 30cm in diameter and I was just sitting under it a few minutes before! The ceiling light was installed about 30 years ago.

I thank Daddy God for His protection! I know Jesus is watching over me. All glory to God!

Protection From a Car Accident

I had to make a trip to Penang with a group of friends for a site analysis. The trip was only decided the day before, so my friends decided to drive to Penang. However, I had a feeling that something was amiss. Thinking that it might be my own fears, I went to sleep, hoping that the feeling would go away the next day.

The next morning, I was still feeling uneasy. I tried to shake the feeling away by reading the Bible but it was of no use. I felt prompted not to take the car ride to Penang. So, I suggested to my friends to take a coach instead but they refused. I decided to go with them, believing in God’s protection over me. I read Psalm 91 many times and trusted that the God I know would protect me.

After the site analysis in Penang, we drove out for lunch. I fell asleep in the car while my friends continued chatting. I remembered my friends tried to wake me up but I could not stay awake. This was unusual as I will usually be awake as long as there is somebody talking to me.

Then, before I know it, I heard a bang and by the time I opened my eyes, our car was moving to the side of the road. That was when I know that we had met with an accident. My friends were all traumatised by the accident yet I was unfazed as I was sleeping the whole time. All I felt was a soft knock which woke me up. Not only that, I was the least affected from the impact of the collision as I was sitting furthest away from the part where the car was hit. I was sitting on the right side of the back seat while the crash was on the left front seat.

At that moment, I felt that God is so real. The discerning Spirit was so strong before I went on the trip, yet even though I did not heed the voice of the Spirit, God is faithful to protect me. He put me to sleep so that I did not have to witness the accident and go through all the scary moments. Praise God!

God even protected the car from severe damage and everyone was unharmed, including the driver from the other car. This incident revealed to me how much Daddy God loves us. All we have to do is to trust in Him and His promises. All glory to God!

Mother Unharmed in Car Accident

On 20 February 2010, I was awoken by a disturbing dream early in the morning. I felt prompted to say a prayer of protection for my family, and so I declared the blood of Jesus over my family members before I went back to sleep.

At about 10am, I woke up again and I still felt the prompting to pray for my family. So I said a quick prayer to thank God for His protection and blessing over everyone in my family.

Half an hour later, my mother called home and said that she had been in a road accident earlier. A truck had rammed into the taxi she was in. The back portion of the taxi was crushed and its back window was shattered. Although she had been sitting in the back seat of the taxi, she walked away unharmed!

Praise Jesus! We have no doubt that it was the Lord’s divine protection and His perfect timing that have kept my mother safe and protected. Hallelujah!

Divine Protection In Spite Of Faulty Tyre

My mother and I visited my sister in Germany last August and we had a good time of fellowship and bonding. We even partook of the Holy Communion every afternoon!

During the third week of our stay, we decided to drive to Amsterdam to buy some groceries as they have a lot of Asian food stores there. My two nephews happily volunteered to drive us.

Before leaving, I prayed for God to be with us, and laid hands on the car. We started off early in the morning and arrived at Amsterdam just in time to enjoy an early lunch. We bought groceries and later went to have some dim sum before heading back home. My sister Mayling bought multiple servings of dim sum as well as three boxes of beef kuay teow to bring home! As such, we left in a small car that was loaded with five adults and plenty of food!

After two hours of driving, the car suddenly started to rattle and shake violently. The boys joked that we were getting a massage on the ride home. The rear wiper was tapping very hard and I thought that something must be wrong with the car’s suspension system or the tyres. We made a stop at a rest area and checked the tyres but they looked okay. We even gave the tyres a few hard kicks!

We figured that since the car was old, it was probably due to a technical glitch. We prayed and asked God to protect us as we continued our journey home. My mother then told us in Hokkien that we should pray in tongues and we did so.

Upon reaching the German border, we took a break at a rest area. This time, the boys decided to remove all the tyres and they found the left rear tyre deformed and bloated. The spare tyre was installed but this spare tyre was worn out and not fully inflated. We drove on and continued praying in tongues. We came across a petrol station but they didn’t have an air pressure gauge! Another petrol station we passed by was closed as it was already late.

The ride home took much longer than expected as we could only drive at 85-90km/hr instead of 160 km/hr. We caught the second last ferry and arrived home past 11.30pm. We realised later that the dim sum and beef kway teow takeaways we bought in Amsterdam were “prepared” by God in advance for us to feast on because we were getting hungry! We were thankful that we had arrived safely without incident. The faulty tyre could have caused the car to overturn if driven at high speed. God graciously protected us all the way home from Amsterdam, and we praise and thank Him for blessing us mightily. God’s favour was definitely upon us and we want to acknowledge that!

Driver and His Car Supernaturally Protected in Accident

On the evening of 15 September 2009, I was driving home after work. I was making a left turn when a luxury sedan car hit my car so hard that it careened off the road and hit the divider.

Stunned and amazingly unhurt, I drove to a bus bay further up. For some unexplained reason, I was certain that somehow everything was going to be all right. After I had pulled over, followed by the other driver, we got out of our cars to inspect the damage.

With a puzzled look, he asked, “I hit your car, right?” I nodded and then we examined each another’s car. A while later, he asked again, “I hit your car, right?” When I replied “yes”, this time he asked, “But where is the damage?”

I pointed to my driver’s side door as I was very certain that was where his car hit mine. Astonishingly, both of us could not locate any scratch, dent or damage on both our cars! As his car was rather dusty, a layer of dirt appeared on my driver’s side door. After wiping off the dirt with a piece of tissue, there was not even a single scratch mark beneath!

I do not know much about the types of cars which have hardier parts nor wish to explain things in the natural. All I know is that the impact of the crash was serious enough for severe damages, even though I escaped unscathed.

What can I say in the face of grace? I can only humbly bow down and worship our Lord. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for revealing the heart of our Father in your messages.

Baby Boy Protected As Glass Door Shattered

On the morning of 28 July 2009, my one-year old son, Gabriel, was sitting on the kitchen floor next to the glass door separating the kitchen and pantry area of our home. At that time, the door was closed and I was sitting on a bar stool less than 2 metres from where he was, reading my newspapers.

What happened next was something that I would never have been able to avert, no matter how quick my action was. Apparently, Gabriel slid open the door. I looked up only when I heard the glass door hitting the wall. In that split second, I froze as I watched the 2-metre high tempered glass door bounce and shatter into countless pieces.

When I picked Gabriel up, I saw blood trickling down the front of his head. I was fearful as his head was covered with lots of fine glass fragments. But my wife and I knew that he was all right when he stopped crying after two minutes or so. He was asking for food, while we were brushing the fragments off his head, hands and feet.

We brought Gabriel to the paediatrician and he told us that Gabriel was very lucky because he didn’t require any stitches. When we came back from the clinic and looked at the broken glass pieces on the floor, we were amazed and grateful to our Daddy God that His angels made sure most of the fragments, especially the big ones, fell in the pantry, instead of the kitchen where Gabriel was sitting. Even our part-time helper, who helped us to clear the mess, called Gabriel a miracle baby. We know that it was Jesus’ blood that protected Gabriel. All praise be to God!

Divinely Protected From Terrorist Attack

In my entire student life, I had never ever pulled an all-nighter, but on 22 March 2017, I did it for the first time. I had also been surviving on coffee the previous week and only had 13 hours of sleep due to a very hectic schedule. That morning, I submitted an essay at 11am after staying up the whole night. I had intended to wake up at 1.30pm to go to Westminster Bridge at around 2pm to film some scenes for my school project.

But my planned trip to Westminster did not materialise. I slept through my alarm — something that had never happened to me before too. When I woke up at 4pm, I received a text from a friend asking me if I was fine. I went online to check what he was referring to. Apparently, a terrorist attack had taken place at Westminster Bridge and the attacker had mowed people down using a car before embarking on a stabbing spree. As I read the news and heard the police sirens and helicopters flying outside my university halls, I had goosebumps knowing that I could have been on that bridge when the attack happened.

Later, when I spoke to my mum about it, she told me that she had been praying and declaring Psalm 91 over me daily. I am so thankful for my mother’s prayers! I thank God for keeping me safe and putting me at the right place, at the right time.

Placed At The Right Place, Right Time, And Avoided A Terrorist Attack

I was sent to London for a week in March 2017 to attend a course for my work. During my trip there, I had to visit the local regulatory bodies to attend sharing sessions.

On 22 March 2017, we had to do two such visits. When we were going from one regulatory office to the other, we had to cross River Thames using a bridge that was parallel to the Westminster Bridge.

As we crossed the bridge, I was happily taking videos of the scenery, as it was my first time in a London black cab. I took videos of Westminster, Buckingham Palace and many more.

It was only when we arrived at the next office, that we saw the news that a terrorist attack had happened at Westminster Bridge! Later on, I realised that the video I took of Westminster was probably about the same time the attack had taken place or slightly after it had happened.

I want to praise Jesus for His divine protection, and for putting me at the right place, at the right time. We were completely safe throughout the trip and were not in danger at any point.

Driver And Passengers Saved From Accident

On 29 April 2017, I was driving my passengers towards Tuas along the Pan-Island Expressway. There were three adults and a baby sitting in the passenger seats at the back. We were conversing when I passed a speed limit sign and started to slow down.

What happened in the next couple of seconds was completely unexpected. Something hit my front passenger’s door and forced me to move to the lane which was just beside me.

When I turned to see what hit me, I could only see an overturned vehicle on the road shoulder. Then, I had to turn my attention to the road ahead of me and steer my car straight.

When the car finally pulled to a stop, I could only look down and say, “Thank You, Jesus.” One of the passengers, who is also a believer, repeated the same thing.

When we checked the car, we realised that the left door could not be opened and the left windscreen was completely shattered.

My car was right in front and the vehicles at the back started to pile up.

We left the car only when a traffic police came to help and allow us to cross over to the recovery lane. When we exited, we commented that only Jesus could have protected us. We were very glad to be alive and unharmed.

When I managed to pull myself together, I proceeded to the rear of the accident scene where my car was and realised that several other cars were involved in the accident.

Apparently, one of them had flipped to its side but managed to miraculously turn over upright again. The driver was mildly injured and had to be taken to the hospital. The other vehicles involved were a large lorry, a saloon car that had hit me, and another vehicle with a mildly scratched front bumper.

When I returned to where my passengers were, something even more astounding happened.

A yellow taxi flew and fell on to the back of my stationary car right before our very eyes. A motorcyclist who wanted to avoid the taxi, swerved to the side and skidded. The motorcyclist rolled on the ground and stood up quickly before the bike got hit by other vehicles.

Had we been still standing where our car was, the outcome would be unimaginable.

Through this all, I want to give God the glory and thank Him for His mighty hand of protection on me and my passengers. Just earlier in the day, I had partaken of the Holy Communion declaring His protection, health and blessing over me and my family.

I believe Jesus’ blood covers us and He never leaves us nor forsakes us even when we are undeserving. Thank You, Jesus!

Totally Unharmed After Car Skidded On The Road

On Sunday, 1 October 2017, I was driving on Bukit Timah Expressway to get to church. It was drizzling and the road was wet.

Just as I turned into the Pan-Island Expressway, my car skidded and I lost control of the car. I tried stepping on the brakes, but it did not help.

My car skidded across four lanes, turned 180 degrees towards the oncoming traffic and collided with a car.

Miraculously, when I skidded to the first lane, no vehicles were in the way. Based on my vague memory, all the other vehicles were either ahead of me or still a distance from my car and hence, no one was injured in the process.

I have seen and heard how drivers had lost control of their vehicles but I never expected it would happen to me. I have been driving frequently for a number of years and I thought that my experience would have helped but this incident had proven otherwise.

Although I was shocked by the incident, the feeling did not last for long. I could feel a peace on the inside of me — only the grace of God can be so real and effective in such a situation. By God’s grace and divine protection, I was totally unharmed.

On a side note, I would like to add that my car was playing songs from New Creation Church's worship album Anthem Of Grace when the accident happened, reminding me to keep relying on God.

Lost Wedding Ring Recovered

In December 2017, my family and I went on a vacation in Taiwan. On 21 December, we arrived at an animal resort and my daughter was extremely excited to see the animals.  

As we were touring the place, we stopped at a bridge and I carried my daughter so that she could get a better look at the animals. As I was doing so, my wife noticed that something had hit against the metal bar and dropped into a pond below. It turned out that my wedding ring had slipped off my finger! 

I informed the resort staff and joined them to dredge the pond. However, the ring was nowhere to be found. As it was getting late, and the weather was turning cold, we had to end our search. Nonetheless, the staff were kind enough to assure me that they would do the search again the next day, and asked us to enjoy our stay at the resort.

For the next two days, the staff continued the search but to no avail. By the time when we had to leave for home, the ring was still missing. Though the staff assured me that they would keep trying and would contact me when they find it, I was disheartened. 

During this time, we prayed and believed God for restoration as a family.

On 14 January 2018, I received a call from overseas. Thinking that it was a spam call, I dismissed it. Later in the day, I received the same call again. 

This time round, I felt led to answer the call. It was a call from the resort staff. Apparently, they had pumped out the water from the pond and managed to find a ring. They had also sent me a photo via email to verify if it was mine. 

When I opened the email, there it was — a picture of my wedding ring with the inscription “Jesus’ beloved”. Praise the Lord!

All this happened when I was in the car with my family and some relatives who were not believers, and they were all amazed at what transpired. What perfect timing! My wife and I have been believing for our relatives to come to know Jesus, and the restoration of my wedding ring became a testimony to them as well as my Taiwanese relatives whom we also shared with in a family group chat. We are believing that a seed has been sown in their hearts and that they would come to know Jesus! Hallelujah!

As for my ring, the resort staff did not want to risk mailing it over to Singapore. Instead, the resort manager brought it personally to me when he came to Singapore for a business trip in February. 

Praise Jesus for His amazing favour!

Protected During Overseas Work Trip

On 21 June 2016, I went on a work trip to Brussels, Belgium. On the first day of our meeting, our colleagues from Brussels came to pick us up from the hotel to the office in two cars.

In the 30–minute ride to the office, the first car got into a car accident. And I was seated in the second car.

It was a shock when we arrived at the accident scene a few minutes later. My Brazilian colleague was covered with blood. Thank God he was not critically injured. He required stitches on his head and suffered from a broken finger, injured ribs and leg.

I thank Abba Father for His protection over my boss and myself who were in the car behind. Though the meeting started on an unpleasant note, I kept declaring Abba Father’s protection over the team.

Throughout the week, my colleagues told us that some places in Brussels had to be closed due to suspected terrorist activities and extensive hype caused by the Euro Cup. I thank Abba that we were not near those affected areas.

On the day of the last meeting, though there was a strike, we were able to have our meeting safely in the office.

Despite all these incidents, I was at peace and I kept declaring the blood of Jesus upon my colleagues. The entire week also turned out to be a restful week and the meetings were also very fruitful.

On Saturday, 25 June 2016, my boss and I were scheduled to return to Singapore. We were supposed to transit at Frankfurt. However, due to bad weather, our flight was cancelled.

As a result, we had to transit at Istanbul. When my boss heard about the news, he asked me if I was fine with the arrangement. After praying and committing the trip to Abba, I told him that we were protected and I was fine with the arrangement.

Before the flight, I also requested for prayers from fellow believers. Our flight was very restful with superb service, and we were back in Singapore on 26 June 2016.

On 29 June 2016, I was shocked to receive news that some bombs had gone off at Istanbul airport early in the morning. I calculated the timing and realised that it was the same time we were transiting at Istanbul airport three days ago! One of the bombs even went off near our boarding gate. I had goosebumps reading the news.

Many of my colleagues told my boss and me that we were “lucky”. But I know that we were protected not because of “luck” but because of Jesus. A few months prior to the trip, I would declare every day that God would put me at the right place at the right time, and He had indeed placed me at the right place at the right time. He also surrounded me with believers who covered me with prayers throughout the trip. All glory to our loving Abba!

Protected from Two Car Accidents After Listening to Message on Psalm 91

One night, my husband, KC and I were stuck in a traffic jam for five hours. We couldn't move the car and did not know what had happened. So we put on a sermon by Pastor Joseph Prince titled, The Secret Place — Where You Find Protection And Long Life.

Later, we found out that a fatal accident took place just five seconds ahead of us. So the Lord held us up to protect us from the accident. We are so fully blessed and deeply loved by the Lord!

Today, my husband, KC, was again protected miraculously from another car accident. It appeared that a driver had a heart attack while driving and passed out. It led to a chain collusion and all the cars in front and behind KC got hit and the drivers were taken to the hospital. Despite all these, KC’s car was completely untouched!

Though KC had always been an excellent driver, he dared not claim the credit. Everything had happened so quickly that he could not react in time!

In fact, we believe that it was the Lord who protected him once again because this very morning, KC was reading a devotional by Pastor Prince that drew Bible references from Psalm 91!

It touched on verses 2 and 4 which read: He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty… and He shall cover you with His feathers, and under His wings you shall take refuge…
 

Truly, as mentioned by Pastor Prince, there is no safer place in the universe than under the protective shelter of our Saviour’s wings. What blessed assurance we can have today, knowing that even if destruction rages around us, there is always a refuge and comfort in the Lord — our unfailing peace, protection and supply!

Life Preserved with a Speedy Recovery

When I was in my teens, I was bullied in school, and this caused me to suffer from depression for more than 10 years. Even though I grew up in a Christian school, I lived life burdened with the weight of condemnation as my family members were not believers.

This went on until I joined my current company where I met bosses whom I look up to. They introduced me to New Creation Church in September 2016, and I believed it was Jesus who had directed my path there.

At midnight on 25 January 2017, I met with a traffic accident while on my way home. My colleague had dropped me off, and as I was crossing the road, I was suddenly hit by a cab. I went up the cab’s bonnet and was flung at least half a metre away. I fell with my laptop in my right arm.

I was shocked and couldn't move. I tried to drag myself to the middle of the road where the barricade was to avoid the oncoming vehicles from the other side of the road.

Thankfully, the cars did not roll over my leg, and I was not unconscious! My belongings were also only slightly damaged.

To cut the story short, I was sent to the hospital after a good 20 minutes.

I contacted my bosses and they prayed for my healing. I also kept laying hands on my thigh and confessing that by Jesus’ stripes, I am healed and that I am covered by His precious blood.

I was also encouraged by a healing testimony screened in church on the Sunday before my accident.

That night, I left the hospital with only some scabs and bruises, and limped home without having to use a wheelchair. It was hard to believe that I had gotten into a traffic accident.

Two weeks later, I was completely healed. I did not have to take additional medication, and did not suffer any bone fractures! I believe this was the work of Jesus and a result of His healing power.

I would like to thank my bosses and most importantly, my Lord Jesus and my Abba Father who heard my prayers and saved my life!

Protected from Accident with No Broken Bones!

On 2 December 2016, I was driving along South Buona Vista Road. There were five of us in the car including myself, my wife, my 10-year-old son and 7-year-old daughter and a fellow server from church, Cleo.

At about 11.25pm, our car reached a bend and suddenly, we heard a screeching sound coming from the opposite lane. Then, I saw the headlights of a car approaching straight towards us.

My wife shouted “Jesus!” And at that moment, I felt someone holding my left hand and steering our car to the left. The next thing we knew, our car got hit and it spun to the right. As for the car that hit us, it went on to hit the railing before stopping at around 50 to 60 metres away from my lane.

I heard my children screaming in the backseat. When I turned around and that saw that everyone was safe, I took a deep breath and said, “Thank You, Jesus!” I then got out of the car to examine the damages and realised that my right rear tyre and the right side of the car body were badly hit.

In fact, Cleo was supposed to alight at a bus stop earlier but stayed on as we would be passing by her place and could drop her closer to home. Because of this, she was able to hug my children during the collision and pulled them away from the right side of the car. At that point, I truly appreciate Pastor Prince for sharing Psalm 91, the psalm of protection, with the church and for praying for us every Sunday. I believe God had shielded us from this accident and kept death at bay.

After the accident, I was brought to the hospital for observation as I had experienced pain running down from my neck to my waist. It turned out that I had a spongy muscle in my spine area and had to see a specialist in a few weeks’ time.

On 7 December 2016, I went back to the hospital as I was still experiencing pain in my back. This time around, the doctors discovered that I had a hairline crack in my neck bone and my pelvis was also slightly chipped. I was told to rest as much as possible. The doctor even wanted me to be admitted to the hospital immediately.

However, I told the doctor to give us some time. We asked our fellow servers to keep me in prayer. My family also prayed, applied the anointing oil on the affected spot for me. I also declared that as Jesus is whole and has no broken bones, so am I.

I then told the doctor I did not want to be admitted and requested that he put me through further tests. He agreed after I signed the indemnity form, stating that they would not be held responsible should anything happen to me.

I was scheduled to see a specialist on 9 December 2016 at 3.50pm. At around 3.43pm, a fellow server sent me a message saying that God was working things out for me and miracles would manifest. I replied her saying that I believed that Jesus works miracles and I would receive a favourable answer from the doctor.

Shortly after, the specialist told me that my X-rays revealed that there were no cracks in my bones. What the doctor saw previously could be my ageing bones. Other than that, I was perfectly fine and I need not worry. Upon hearing this, my tears rolled down uncontrollably.

Since that day, my back has been healed and I have not gone back to the doctors.

Our God is so good! Thank You, Lord Jesus, for loving me so much.

Protected Under His Wings

I would usually travel to Malta for business and would return on either a Friday night or Saturday morning.

However, in October 2016, I had to travel back on a Sunday due to shortage of seats. This was the first time in my 15 years of travelling to Malta that I had to return on a Sunday.

That morning, I was meditating on Psalm 91 and verse 4 came alive to me. It says “…under His wings you shall take refuge” and I could literally visualise the Lord’s wings joined to the body of the plane. At that moment, I felt a supernatural peace and security. I did not understand what it meant but I felt loved and that was good enough for me.

My plane landed in Singapore on Monday morning and the flight was smooth.

After that, I heard from my colleague, who flew out of Malta on Saturday morning, that his plane faced strong turbulence an hour prior to arrival and some of the passengers suffered minor injuries.

I also learnt that on Monday morning, a twin–engine propeller plane crashed shortly after take–off in Malta, and all five passengers died!

I believe that my flight schedule was divinely arranged. Thank you Pastor Prince for preaching on grace and the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ, and for reminding us of Psalm 91!

All glory to our good, good Father!

Brother Protected from a Near-Fatal Accident

I have been greatly blessed by Pastor Prince’s teachings on Psalm 91. Every night, I would recite the psalm over my family and friends, and declare the blood of Jesus over them.

In the afternoon of 7 October 2016, I was studying when I received a call from my brother. It turned out that he got hit by a car while riding his bicycle. According to him, the car did not stop even though the traffic light was not in his favour. Shocked, I rushed over to where my brother was.

I saw that his bicycle was badly damaged — the wheels on both ends were bent, and the screws were out of place. The brakes were also no longer working. However, the bicycle seat where my brother sat was completely intact and my brother only sustained a bruise!

A thousand may fall at your side,
And ten thousand at your right hand;
But it shall not come near you.

It was such a surprise because the impact of the car was directly on my brother. However, he did not even break a single bone. Instead, he stood right up, and could walk and move properly, as if the accident did not happen at all!

Thank you Pastor Prince for making known the beauties and protection we have in Psalm 91. Praise and glory be unto Jesus Christ who protects us!

Stolen Wallet Returned by Pickpocket

While strolling in Paris at around 11pm when all the shops had closed, my husband bumped into a man who was well–dressed and looked amiable. The man apologised profusely and we exchanged some pleasantries about where we were from.

In the middle of the conversation, I perceived that he looked troubled so I told him, “God bless you.” The moment he heard that, he started walking away. I thought that he misheard what I said, so I cupped my hands around my mouth and called out, “Jesus loves you!”

The man made an immediate turn and walked back to us. I smiled at him but he pushed me aside and went to my husband. I then left my husband with this man alone for a moment.

After he left, my husband told me that the man was a pickpocket who came back to return his wallet. We were astounded because we didn’t even realise that the wallet was taken from the front pocket of my husband’s jeans and it is almost unheard–of for pickpockets to return what they had stolen!

God touched the heart of the man and prompted him to return the wallet. He is truly a loving and wonderful Father. Praise the Lord!

Belongings Protected After Declaring Psalm 91 Before Trip

On 15 September 2016, I was on vacation in Munich, Germany. Like most tourists, I was lost in my own world, taking pictures of the magnificent architectures. When I was ready to move off, I stood up and took an unusually hard and fast turn in the opposite direction — almost bumping into an elderly woman and stepping on her foot. My travel partner, a non–believer, immediately pulled me away as the lady got really mad and started raising her voice at me in German.

She caused such a commotion that almost everyone in the area was staring at us wondering what was going on. I kept really quiet throughout the whole commotion as she was yelling non–stop. I just stood still and stared at her, feeling uneasy and suspicious since there was ample space for people to move around and there was no reason for her to come so close to me.

Right after that, we moved away and decided to grab a drink at a nearby kiosk. My friend reached into her bag and discovered that she had lost her money pouch. All her travel money for the trip was gone! We were just into the second day of our trip with six more days to go.

We realised she had been pick–pocketed by the lady, as she had brushed against my friend before exiting the scene. All that drama was a decoy. I quickly checked my belongings, and was relieved that they were intact.

I knew it was Abba Father’s divine protection, directing me to move off at the right time and in an unusually fast manner and hence, disrupting the thief’s ploy.

Before my trip to Germany, I had the opportunity to read the introductory chapter of Pastor Prince’s new book The Prayer Of Protection — Living Fearlessly In Dangerous Times and declared Psalm 91 over myself.

All praise to Jesus for protecting me, so I could be in a position to bless and provide for my friend during such an ordeal. Indeed, “A thousand may fall at your side, and ten thousand at your right hand; but it shall not come near you.”

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for always being faithful in releasing Abba Father’s words in season.

To God be the glory!

Protected While Travelling

I was scheduled to travel to New York City to attend a conference from 3 to 13 September 2016. It was one of my typical conference trips but this time round, my wife felt uneasy as I would be near the vicinity of the World Trade Center on 11 September, the place that was attacked by the terrorists in 2001 on the same day. She prayed for my safety and asked me to do so as well.

On 3 September 2016, I flew to Narita, Tokyo to transit to the States. As I was about to board the flight from Narita to Houston, Texas, I remembered what Pastor Prince said about divine protection during overseas travel. As I stepped into the plane, I touched the plane with my hands and declared the blood of Jesus over it. After we had been seated for a while, we were told that the plane had some technical issues and the take–off would be delayed. I did not think much of it and waited for another 30 minutes until another announcement advised the passengers to leave the plane and wait at the lobby area as the delay was going to be longer than expected.

Over time, more and more passengers left the plane for the lobby area. Everyone was getting more restless, curious and apprehensive.

After waiting for around two hours, an airline crew member announced that the flight was cancelled, as the rudder had a faulty actuator which could not be replaced within the short timeframe. He mentioned that flight cancellation was extremely rare in his 34 years of service as it would be very costly for the airline to do so, and thus, the replacement would be done only when it was absolutely necessary. The airline provided us with overnight accommodation and meals in Japan and tried to arrange replacement flights for us on the following day.

Initially, I felt a bit lost as this was my first time encountering a flight cancellation. Furthermore, around the same time, the news also reported that strong winds were brewing in the vicinity of Japan. I grew concerned that I might be grounded in Japan and would not be able to reach New York in time for the conference. Yet, at the same time, I thanked God that I did not board the plane that had a technical issue! With a peace of mind that God is watching over me, I stayed over in Japan for a night.

The next morning, I immediately called the airline to book another flight to New York. Although the lady on the phone mentioned that flights to the States were almost fully booked, I managed to book a flight to New York via Los Angeles (LA) on the same day. Furthermore, I got a free upgrade to my preferred airline! It was God’s blessing in disguise.

At LA, while I thought that I could fly to New York smoothly, I was shocked to find out that my phone booking for the flight was not done properly and the boarding pass could not be printed. The airline did not resolve the problem in time to issue me a boarding pass, and as a result, I missed my flight again! They later arranged for me to board another flight on the same day and gave me the only available seat in the First Class cabin, which I took for the first time in my life!

Finally, with God’s protection and favour, I reached my destination and attended the conference as scheduled.

Then on 11 September, I was scheduled to fly back to Singapore via Hong Kong on the same airline that was hijacked in 2001. Despite the coincidence, I put my trust in the Lord and prayed for divine protection.

Interestingly, just before boarding the plane towards Hong Kong, the airline crew announced that some of the seats had to be reshuffled as the plane had too many empty seats and they needed to redistribute the weight onboard. This caused a slight commotion among passengers, delaying the take–off for more than an hour.

Although I had only more than an hour to transit in Hong Kong, I did not panic about missing my connecting flight home as I knew that God would watch over me just like before.

In the end, although I was already mentally prepared to stay over in Hong Kong, I was pleased to know that the plane waited for us even though we reached Hong Kong later than scheduled. I also managed to come back to Singapore safely.

Pastor Prince, thank you very much for your ministry and your expounding on the Scriptures, especially on Psalm 91! All praises to the Lord!

Saved by Hearing The Word of God

Back in 2012, I was assigned to work in America, and my wife and I lived in a small town in Idaho for three years. Since it was a small town, we had to drive one hour every weekend to get to the nearest city to buy our weekly necessities. We loved listening to Pastor Prince’s sermons while we were in the car.

On one particular day, my wife was driving the car and I was sleeping beside her as I had worked the night shift before. She was going at more than 120km/h when I heard her cry out and I felt the car shift to the left. I opened my eyes in horror and realised that the car on our right was drifting into our lane and forcing us onto the road shoulder. The other driver seemed so close to us but yet totally oblivious that she was about to crash into us.

In the moment of panic, my wife swerved our car into the road shoulder and lost control of the vehicle. The car swayed uncontrollably from the left to right, and each attempt to steady the steering wheel only made us swerve more. I remember thinking to myself that this was probably going to be a terrible accident.

At that moment I felt a peace within me, and I grabbed the steering wheel with one hand and played out the vehicle’s momentum by gently rocking the wheel until we regained control.

Once we found a safe place to pull over, we got out of the car and our hands were shaking. We were totally unscathed, and miraculously, the car didn’t hit any other vehicle on the highway while we were out of control.

The amazing thing is this — while we were in our panic and distress, Pastor Prince’s sermon, Abundance and Strength in The Presence of Jesus, was playing in the CD player. At the precise moment when I thought it would be a terrible accident, Pastor Prince was saying repeatedly that no one dies in the presence of the Lord.

We believe that Jesus saved us from harm that day. Even physically hearing the word of God is powerful enough to prevent an accident from taking place.

All glory to Jesus.

Dad Protected from Plane Crash

I really thank the Lord for giving my dad a new lease of life.

He was supposed to take the AirAsia flight QZ8501 on 28 December 2014. But the travel agent booked the wrong date and got him the air ticket for 29 December instead.

When my dad realised that the date was wrong, he called the agent and asked to have the ticket changed. Though seats were still available, the agent could not make the change for him as the computer system was not responsive.

When news of the missing plane broke out on 28 December, my dad called us to share how the Lord had protected him. I was so touched by His goodness and mercy. This incident had truly changed my dad’s life.

Since then, the Lord’s presence has become very real in my dad’s life, and His love has captured my dad’s heart. He is now a loving husband and a loving father. There is no greater joy than to see Christ at the centre of my family. I am so touched by His grace, unconditional love, faithfulness and mercy.

Thank you Pastor Prince for sharing the gospel of grace. It has truly changed my life and my family completely. We are now children of God, righteous in Christ and totally redeemed from all harm at the cross. All praise and glory to Jesus! Hallelujah!

Entire Family Protected in Car Accident

I want to give Jesus all the glory and praise for protecting me and my family from a car accident.

It was past midnight on 23 November 2014 when I drove my sister home in Woodlands. My car was fully loaded with people. My sister, niece and nephew were seated in the backseats while my daughter in the front seat. 

My niece was sharing with us how God had protected her and her boyfriend on a heavy snow day in Korea, and I remember the last thing I said seconds before the accident was: "Yeah, that's God’s protection." 

I then stopped at a right light at a cross junction for about three seconds when I heard a loud bang. The impact pushed our car to the front and caused all of us to jolt forward. We then hit into the van that had stopped ahead of us, and were jolted backwards. 

All these happened within seconds. But praise be to Jesus, I was still conscious. I knew that a car had knocked into us but when I looked into the rear mirror, I did not see anything.

It turned out that the car that hit us, had skidded and landed on the right lane of the road. When I was checking on my family members to make sure that they were all doing okay, I saw a drunk driver walking towards me. 

I opened my car door and at that very moment, there was this supernatural calmness and peace. I had totally no fear or anger, and I was able to look straight into the eyes of this young guy, who was around mid-20s, and asked him calmly: “You drank?” 

Trust me that was definitely not me but Jesus! The driver then nodded and said: “Yes, I did”. 

Still very coolheaded, I said: “Let me call the police.” 

To cut the long story short, it was amazing that none of my family member was hurt – not even a minor cut, pain or whiplash!

As for me, I only felt some pain on my left kneecap, which was operated a few years ago. But praise be to Jesus, the X-ray found no fractured bones, and the metal plate and screws inside were still intact. Though, I was limping slightly, I was still able to attend the 3rd service on the same Sunday afternoon! 

I want to thank God for leading Pastor Prince to emphasise to us the importance of God’s protection, and the power of confessing Psalm 91 over ourselves every morning.

Son Protected from Glass Shards

At about 3pm on 4 August 2013, the glass cover on my living room’s coffee table shattered for no reason. When it happened, my 11-year-old son, Benjamin, was seated on the sofa around 30cm away, watching television.

When I heard a few thuds, I dashed out of the bedroom, thinking that the standing fan had fallen. My husband, who was in the kitchen, also came out and both of us were shocked to see glass shards all over the living room.

The impact of the breakage was so great that some glass shards flew into the kitchen but praise be to Jesus, Benjamin was totally unhurt!

Later, he told us that while watching television, he heard a crackling sound in the middle of the glass cover and immediately, it broke into many pieces.

Amazingly, there was a big piece of glass sitting on the edge of the table nearest to Benjamin, which did not shatter. After taking a closer look, we realised it had many cracks on it. If it had shattered, the glass shards could have cut Benjamin who was just wearing a T-shirt and a pair of shorts!

I told him that an angel had protected him because every morning, my three boys and I would confess that Jesus would open doors of wisdom, favour, health and healing for us, and He is our shield and protection. I would also plead the blood of Jesus over my family and this incident was clearly God averting a disaster for our family.

Thank you Pastor Prince for being our senior pastor and please carry on preaching the gospel of grace. We can never get enough of it. Hallelujah!

Family Protected from Typhoon Haiyan

On Friday, 8 November 2013, seventeen of us from my family flew to Hue, Vietnam to attend my uncle’s wedding. Though it was just a three-hour flight, I decided to bring along Pastor Prince’s new book, The Power Of Right Believing, knowing that it would surely bless me.

My uncle, who arrived in Hue three days earlier, told us to prepare for rainy weather as it had been raining daily. For a moment, I was disappointed. I had always wanted to have a good holiday and a great wedding for my uncle.

However, after reading the book, The Power Of Right Believing, I was reminded of Jesus’ love for me. I believed that if Jesus could calm the storm, He could also stop the rain for me! Hence, I told my uncle that we shall not see any rain during our trip.

Indeed, upon reaching Vietnam, we were welcomed by good cloudy weather. Praise The Lord.

But, that wasn’t the end of God’s miracles.

We received a bad report that Typhoon Haiyan, which had taken thousands of lives in the Philippines, was approaching Vietnam on the day of my uncle’s wedding.

I was told that though Vietnam experiences a few typhoons every year, Typhoon Haiyan was considered the strongest, and it could be life-threatening.

As we drove through the city, we saw everyone preparing for the typhoon to arrive. News of Typhoon Haiyan flooded the television channels. Sandbags were seen on the zincs roof of all the houses. Even the window panels in our hotel rooms were pasted with masking tapes and securely locked.

Knowing that Daddy God loves me, I gave no thoughts to the potentially life-threatening situation, and focused on right believing.

I also stood by my window and spoke shalom to the storm. One of the pages in Pastor Prince’s book, reminded me that God would never leave me so I had nothing to worry about.

My uncle, however, was concerned. Nonetheless, he was hoping that it would drizzle as he believed that rain symbolised prosperity and wealth. Reluctantly, I told him, in that case, I would ask Daddy God to bring light rain on his wedding day.

When the big day arrived, I got my sister and brother-in-law to start the day by declaring that the typhoon shall not come near us.

Subsequently, we were overwhelmed by excitement of the wedding that we completely forgotten about the typhoon. Daddy God sent a light drizzle on that day and we were not affected because we stayed indoors most of the time.

Soon, the day ended, and amazingly we received news that the typhoon had diverted and moved towards the North. Vietnam was spared. Praise Jesus! I could only say it was surely the work of my Daddy God.

My family and I experienced the power and the results of right believing! All glory and praise to our wonderful Saviour.

Baby Girl Protected from an Entangled Umbilical Cord

My second child was supposed to be due in the second week of September 2013. However, on the 6 August, my wife started feeling unwell and requested to see her gynaecologist. When she arrived at the hospital, she was already showing signs of contractions.

The doctors immediately put my wife on drip to stop the contractions. He also warned her of the potential dangers if she were to deliver prematurely. When I learnt of the news, negative thoughts filled my mind as I was born four weeks premature. My lungs were not fully developed and my parents had a hard time bringing me up.  Without realising it, I was meditating on the wrong thoughts over and over again.

Over the next three days, my wife remained in the hospital for further observations. During this time, I prayed that my child would be carried till full term. I also felt the Lord telling me that He had knitted my daughter in my wife's womb and His “knitting” was perfect. However, I could not stop thinking about the negative thoughts and even got angry with God.

On 9 August, National Day, my wife’s water bag burst. I was at my wits’ end. All I could do was gather my brothers- and sisters-in-Christ to rally in prayer. Before long, text messages came flooding in and words of faith were declared into my situation.

Shortly after, my baby girl was born. When she came out, the gynaecologist looked at me in great amazement. It turned out that my baby’s umbilical cord was entangled and if she had been carried full term, she might not have survived!

At that moment, things became crystal clear. God had been working behind the scenes to protect my baby, even though I was in doubt! It was truly never about how good I am, but how good Jesus is.

My National Day baby, Zoey, came out extremely healthy and her internal organs were fully developed! God's knitting is truly perfect and now I can’t help but praise our awesome Saviour!

Divine Protection from Appendicitis

I had been having intermittent abdominal discomfort since March 2012 and the same symptoms would occur every few months. Every time I visited my General Practitioner (GP), she would diagnose it as bouts of gastric flu and fever.

On 2 October 2013, I experienced the same pain and ran a high fever. My GP prescribed the usual medication for gastric flu.

Despite feeling unwell, I attended the first service that Sunday. Pastor Henry led the Holy Communion and told us to expect a miracle from God. I held on to this promise and believed that God is faithful to bring my miracle to pass.

Then on 9 October 2013, my temperature remained high and I experienced an unusually sharp pain on the right side of my lower abdomen.

I endured the discomfort and went to see my GP. She said that I must go to a hospital at once, as she suspected that I had appendicitis.

I went to Tan Tock Seng Hospital, and after a prolonged delay of 14 hours, I got warded and waited another two hours before my scan. That was when the doctor found that my appendix had ruptured.

An emergency appendectomy was carried out and after two-and-a-half hours, I came out alive! The doctor then told my husband that the rupture had taken place days before the operation.

From my understanding, if the operation had not been carried out immediately upon the rupture, the bacteria would have invaded the blood stream and I would run a high risk of sepsis.

It is indeed God's blessing and miracle that preserved me throughout this whole ordeal.

All glory, honour and praise to my Lord Jesus!

Family Protected from Broken Glass

I want to share about God's wonderful protection for my family. It was a lazy Sunday afternoon. My family had come home from church after the first service and I was reading the newspapers on the floor in my sons' room. My second son, aged seven, was playing next to me and my eldest, aged nine, was on the top of the bunk bed. I was not paying attention to what they were doing, but suddenly, there was a tremendous crash and the ceiling lamp fell to the floor, smashed to smithereens!

I screamed! It turned out that my eldest boy had been trying to transfer a mat from the top of the bunk bed to the floor and he had inadvertently dislodged the glass cover of the ceiling lamp. Broken glass was all around me.

The wonderful thing was that I was not hurt at all. My second son, who was playing next to me, was also uninjured. He had just pulled the blanket over his head, pretending that it was a helmet. In fact, apart from the broken glass on the floor, everyone was fine. Not a single cut anywhere.

Though it was such an 'earth-shattering' event, we all remained calm and there was no panic or fear. My eldest son would call it another miracle because no one yelled at him and threatened to punish him. We were just taking in the grace of God that had protected us.

After I removed the glass bits and cleaned up the room, everything was back to normal, but we knew that the hand of God was on our entire family. We partake of the Holy Communion in the morning daily and we want to thank God for His faithfulness, as we usually pray for protection when we partake.

I remember that Pastor Prince also had a similar experience with a glass bottle breaking near his family and everyone escaped unharmed. Thank God that the same anointing flows from the head to the rest of the body, his congregation!

I also thank God that my children had a chance to witness first-hand the goodness of God and His protection. Even now, when we think about it, it's kind of jaw-dropping.

Jesus is so very good, and thank you, Pastor Prince, for preaching the good news all the time! We're praying for you and your family!

Divine Protection from Car Accident

I was driving home on 28 April 2013 when I met with a terrible accident. It had rained heavily the night before, and the roads near my home were slippery. There were also fallen branches and tree barks on the roads. I was making a turn at a sharp bend, when my front left wheel got tangled up with some branches and a big tree bark. My vehicle skidded, mounted the curb and overturned. In that split second when my car was in the air, I felt very scared knowing that I had lost control of my vehicle.

I blacked out and it took me some time to regain consciousness. I unbuckled my seatbelt and tried to get out. But my door was jammed and I had to crawl out from the passenger seat. With the little strength that I had left, I dragged myself to the side of the road and waited for help. At this time, I started to feel a severe pain on the left side of my body and couldn’t move my arm and leg. A few minutes later, two taxis passed by and came to my aid.

I was immediately rushed to the hospital to be treated in A&E and later admitted to the high dependency ward. For two days, I underwent multiple CT scans, blood tests, X-rays and other tests. My mum partook of the Holy Communion with me and a couple from New Creation Church’s Pastoral Care team came and prayed together with us for healing and restoration.

During this time, I learnt that I was the only stable patient in the high dependency ward. Doctors said it was a miracle that I survived such an accident and were surprised that I did not suffer a single fracture or scar on my body. I knew the Lord’s hands were protecting me throughout this whole ordeal.

I was discharged after being admitted for only five days and by the seventh day, I was fully restored and able to attend service that very Sunday! All praise and glory to Jesus. Amen!

Jesus Protected Me from 300 Meter Fall

Recently, I went to climb Bukit Tabur, a long and narrow quartz ridge located in Taman Melawati, Malaysia. To reach the summit, one has to climb up and down peaks that have hard, rough and smooth surfaces, sharp edges and steep drops. I climbed Tabur East on the first day and Tabur West on the second day. It was whilst climbing Tabur West that I had an incident.

I was climbing down one of the smooth surfaced peaks when I lost my footing. I slipped and fell three meters down and landed on a narrow ledge. The ledge was less than a meter long and just wide enough for one person to walk on. It happened so fast that one moment I was facing the quartz ridge, and the next, I was facing the sky lying on my back with my legs dangling over the edge.

At that moment, my friend who was next in line to make the descent saw me slip, and screamed! My initial thought was, “Oh my goodness, this is so embarrassing!”

I was surprisingly calm and not crippled with fear. The amazing thing was, I suffered only minor abrasions to my left elbow. I quickly got up, said a quick prayer of thanks to Jesus and continued on my way down and up another peak. Along the way, the same friend came to me and said she was puzzled over how I managed to face upwards after I fell. I simply said, “I don’t know”, shrugged it off and continued my way. My only concern there and then was whether my fellow trekkers would invite me to participate in future trips! 

I felt fear for the very first time only the day after the fall when I recalled the whole ordeal. I was carrying a three kilogram backpack containing water and personal valuables. We climbed like the locals did with no safety measures in place such as safety ropes or belaying (securing a rope to a person and a rock while climbing).

When I slipped and fell, my body turned in a split second and I landed safely on the narrow ledge with my heavy backpack wedged against the ridge. If my body had not turned, I could have fallen with the heavy load on my back and plunged more than 300 meters. The consequences could have been fatal.

It was then that I realised it had to be Jesus who turned my body during the fall. I know I could not have done it because my reflexes are not that fast. I have never been active since young and only started trekking recently in 2012. I’d never tried rock climbing before and Bukit Tabur was my first such climb.

Honestly, after such a close brush with death, being alive just seems so surreal. Thanks to Pastor Joseph Prince, I know I am loved by Jesus and I owe it all to Him for His protection. I was reminded of Pastor Prince’s teachings on Psalm 91 and I am so grateful that Jesus not only kept me calm and restful, but He gave His angels charge over me, to keep me in all my ways!

God’s Protection During an Overseas Trip

I was in China from 27 February to 4 July 2009 for an overseas immersion programme organised by my school. Our itinerary included a two-day trip to Yichang, Hubei, to visit the famous San Xia (Three Gorges) along the Yangtze River.

We were scheduled to go river rafting on the first day. I was travelling in a bus with 40 other Singaporeans to the rafting location. While travelling along the mountain highway, the left side of our bus crashed into some rocks, and the windows near my seat were totally shattered. There were glass shards everywhere.

I thank God that I was safe and that no one on the bus sustained any serious injuries except for some minor cuts and bruises. If the accident had happened further up the highway, the bus would most probably have plummeted down the mountain.

I am indeed thankful for God’s grace and His protection over us. A few other Christians were also aboard the bus and we believe that God had protected the entire bus because of us. I remember applying anointing oil on myself before I set off in the morning. God is good!

Protected from Typhoon Morakot

My wife and I were holidaying in Taiwan from 31 July to 8 August 2009. We decided to visit southern Taiwan since we had been to northern Taiwan before. We had been touring for only a few days when we received news that Typhoon Morakot was approaching.

The weather started to change, and there was fog and rain. We didn’t know what to expect as we had never experienced a typhoon before. But we prayed that the typhoon would not hit the areas we would be touring.

On 7 August 2009, Typhoon Morakot hit Taiwan. By then, we had returned to Taipei. The winds were strong and the rain hit us from every direction, such that umbrellas were of little use.

What got us a little worried was that the airport was closed. We were so relieved to catch a flight back to Singapore on the evening of 8 August 2009. Flights in the morning had been delayed, but were resumed that afternoon.

Later on, we found out from the news that the places we had visited days before had been flooded and either damaged or buried. Thank God for His protection!

Divine Protection During a Road Trip

I am a member of New Creation Church. However, my husband, Ben, myself and our one-year-old daughter are currently based in Arizona as my husband is undergoing training here.

Last Christmas Eve, we were on a road trip to Flagstaff and witnessed God’s divine protection upon our lives. Upon entering the highway, I felt a “weird feeling” in my stomach. As I was worried that one of us might be unwell during the trip, I had packed a bottle of anointing oil. I applied the oil on myself, my husband and daughter and we anointed the car as well, declaring God’s protection over all of us.

Soon after, we continued driving. Suddenly, I noticed something “flying” in front and towards us! Before I could ask what it was, this “thing” smashed into our windscreen!

Upon closer inspection, the “thing” turned out to be a piece of wood that had flown off the truck in front of us, and smashed into our car’s windscreen! Upon impact, Ben swerved to the side and somehow managed to stop by the side of the road.

I was sitting in the rear seat with our daughter and my immediate thought was that if I were to look in front to check, Ben would have been covered in glass and blood. But when I looked at Ben, he wasn’t bleeding! He only had superficial scratches on him.

We immediately called 911 and the insurance company for help. While waiting for the authorities to come, I looked around the car and realised that most of the broken glass remained at the dashboard. There were no stray pieces, and that was why my daughter and I were completely unharmed!

We truly believe that it was God’s divine protection upon us and we managed to reach Flagstaff in time to spend a white Christmas! Thank you, Pastor Prince, for teaching us to declare good things over our lives! Whatever bad plans that the devil chooses to throw at us, Jesus will always turn it around for our good! We are looking forward to returning home to Singapore and to church!

Child Protected from Harm!

On 10 November 2011, I went to pick up my three-year-old son from playschool. After that, we went to a food court in the same mall for lunch.

After I ordered my food, I sat my son down at a table near the food stall, and stayed with him till the food was ready to be collected. As I went to collect my meal, I turned my head a couple of times to keep sight of my boy, who was sitting and playing happily.

Suddenly, just as I was a few steps away, I heard my boy scream. It was a short, but fearful yell. When I turned around, he was gone! I rushed out of the food court to see if he had walked out alone, but he was nowhere to be found.

There and then, I knew in my heart that something was wrong! I asked some students seated nearby if they had seen anyone carrying him away, but they all said no.

Panicking, I dashed out of the food court and cried out to Jesus, claiming that "no weapons formed against my son shall proper in Jesus’ name”! Then, I borrowed a phone to call the police and continued praying in tongues. I also went to the customer service counter to request for a public address announcement.

Not long after, I tried to call my own hand phone (which my boy was holding on to) but the call did not get through. Thankfully, I called again and a staff from my boy’s school answered. She told me that a lady had “found” my little boy at the basement car park and brought him straight back to the playschool as she recognised my boy’s school uniform.

I was so relieved to find my boy waiting for me in school! As he shared with me what happened, it wasn’t long before I realised that the “bad auntie” who took him fit the description of the same lady who had “found” him at the car park! Apparently, the “bad auntie” was intending to escape with my boy in a car but sent him back to his school instead!

I know it is Jesus who had protected my son! He made the “bad auntie” send my boy all the way back to his school (a place he was familiar with), instead of escaping with him or abandoning him at the car park! Even my hand phone, that was in my boy’s hands, remained intact!

The whole ordeal lasted only 20 minutes. I am so touched by Jesus' love for me and I still cry each time I recall this incident. I am thankful to Jesus that I can hold my little boy again. He covered us with His mighty hand of protection because He loves me and my family so much! Hallelujah!

Protected From a “Flying” Car

I relocated to Canberra one month ago and was looking to attend a local church. In the meantime, I would get my feeding from Pastor Prince’s resources and listen to his sermons.

Recently, I discovered the excellent video streaming function on New Creation Church’s website and have been feeding on the sermon “God Has Crowned You With Glory And Honour” over and over again.

Through Pastor Prince’s teachings, I learnt that the crown of God's glory and honour is not a crown that simply sits on our head, but covers us like a protective shield! I started seeing myself as being protected from head to toe, and would proclaim His favour and protection whenever I left my apartment.

On 23 May 2011, while I was on my way to a store to run an errand, I started to declare that Jesus is my protection like I always do. I took my usual short cut to the store and walked down a slope of bushes which led me straight into the carpark of the store.

Just as my feet hit the bottom of the slope, I heard a loud crash! I turned around and saw that a car had swerved off course and had landed on the slope beside me! The driver was crying and I quickly ran towards her to pull her out of her car.

A workman hurried across the road and said that the car had flown past me and narrowly missed me! Apparently, it would have hit me had I slowed down my walking pace!

After the incident, I was still in shock. As I walked, I continued to thank Jesus for His protection and paid extra attention to my surroundings. Along the way, I discovered a Christian bookshop that sold Pastor Prince's CDs, books and other resources! The sales staff also invited me to their local church and I am going to check it out! Praise the Lord for the divine connection!

Protected from Fire and Successful Application for a New House

On Sunday, 5 January 2014, the corridor outside my parents’ house, where I was residing in, caught fire at around 4.50am. The huge fire engulfed the windows and live cables suspended dangerously near the main door.

There was no way my family and I could escape. I was shocked and in a state of daze and confusion. We quickly called the fire helpline. My kind neighbours came with buckets of water and helped to put out the fire successfully. Even though we lost two bicycles and our windows and cables were burnt, no one was hurt.

In the midst of all the mayhem, I thank God for always being with me and my family. Like what Pastor Prince had prayed in service this year, none of my family members or myself would die before our time. Instead, we would live to 120 years old and our eyes shall not grow dim nor our strength abated.

Later that day, we went to church, fully conscious of God’s unmerited favour and blessings in our lives.

During the service, my daughter and I brought our three prayer requests to the Lord. One of my prayer requests was a flat where my two kids and I could live in. This had been my prayer for the past three years as none of my housing deals was successful.

Back in November 2013, I already applied for a Build-To-Order (BTO) flat near my parents’ home. And every time on my way to work, I would pass by the land, on which the flat would be built, and speak blessings and take possession of it. I was hopeful and deep inside I knew that God has plans to prosper me and not to harm me. His plans were to give me a hope and a bright future.

Then on 8 January 2014, three days after I committed my three prayer requests to the Lord , I received a piece of good news — my application for a BTO flat had been successful and my queue number comprised of the number seven (a significant number that represented God’s divine perfection and completeness).

To the world, getting a new flat is never easy, especially in a country where land is scarce and demand for flats is high. But in God’s economy, He provides for His people.

I know that what God has blessed, He would never take away. I rest knowing that 2014 is indeed a year of greater glory! All glory and praise to Jesus. And thank you Pastor Prince for sharing the good news that I love to hear every Sunday morning. The good news of the gospel. Amen and amen!

Protected from a Serious Accident

My wife, Kellie, and I are from Johor Bahru, Malaysia. Almost every weekend, we would drive to Singapore to attend service at New Creation Church. We have been touched by Jesus and His grace as we hear Pastor Prince preach every week.

On the 29th of December 2013, I particularly remember Pastor Prince said he felt led to pray for the members of New Creation Church that they would not die before their time in 2014. I thought nothing of it, thinking it wasn’t meant for me, but I said amen anyway.

That night, while driving from Taman Sutera towards Nusa Bestari in Johor Bahru, my wife and I had an argument and I started to accelerate. When we approached a sharp bend, I hit the brakes hard, and that was when it happened.

The tyres seemed to lock and I lost control of the car. We swerved sharply and before we could react, we heard a very loud crash. We had hit the road divider so hard that the car landed on one side.

As we climbed out of the car with the help of some passers-by, we were shocked to see that our car was badly damaged. Even Kellie's glasses had flown from her face all the way to the back of the vehicle.

Many of the passers-by said we were very lucky to be alive. But we knew it was not luck — it was God who had divinely protected us and kept us from harm. God is so amazing. Both Kellie and I had escaped with only slight bruises and we are thankful to be alive!

Later on, we learnt from the police that many had died from car accidents at the very same spot. Truly, God is awesome and He was the one who protected us. He loves us more than we can even love ourselves or each other.

Thank you Pastor Prince for sharing the grace and love of our Lord Jesus Christ, and for always declaring God’s blessings over us at the end of every service.

Protected in a Bike Accident

On 26 January 2014, I went on a 140km cycling event with my friends. Though it was a challenging journey and I wanted to give up, I remember I could do all things through Christ who strengthens me. I am over 47 years old and have Type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure but my health has improved greatly last year, and I was able to cope with the speed and distance.

At the last part of the event, I was coming down a steep slope at a fast pace when a motorbike came very close to me. Then, a momentary contact made me lost balance. My handle bar hit against a side wall which was just next to the road. I screamed in my heart, “Lord, save me!” Then I applied the brake but soon lost control of the bicycle. As I crashed, I could feel my helmet rubbing against the wall. I also heard the sound of shattering glass and thought I was in for a fatal fall.

Some passers-by stopped and helped me. I thought I sustained very bad injuries and found my left leg jammed in the bicycle frame. My friends rushed back to help me, and I was able to stand up on my own. I sustained a bruise on my left knee and my right palm, and a twisted last finger. The bicycle had a scratched handle bar, scratched pedals, and no apparent damage. I could mount the bicycle and move to a nearby taxi stand to have my wounds attended to by my friends.

A motorcyclist told me that he saw the accident and thought I would be dead because I was moving at such a high speed. He expected the impact to send me flying into the path of oncoming vehicles. But he saw my bike slowing down significantly as if I was cushioned by some unseen forces before I landed on my bum. The road was covered with broken glass splinters, debris and also metal pieces. I have five small cuts on my palms, and my shin was spared from nasty cuts from the bicycle crank. There were no broken bones, nausea or other injuries. Everyone was amazed.

I praise Jesus for saving me from fractures, severe injuries and even death. All glory to Him!

Family Was Protected from Typhoon Haiyan

We have been experiencing wave after wave of miracles every day since we sat under Pastor Prince's ministry in New Creation Church.

My husband and I grew up in Tacloban, the Philippines. The night before Typhoon Haiyan hit our city, we partook of the Holy Communion to declare protection over our families back home.

On 8 November 2013, Typhoon Haiyan hit Tacloban and communications went down. We could only see devastating images of our city over the news.

However, thankfully our family members were protected from the typhoon. My mother who was living alone in our two-storey house said she felt an urge to go to one of the rooms on the first level just before the typhoon struck. Immediately when she entered the room, the roof and ceiling of our house collapsed. She tried to open the door to check out what was happening, but the door closed back preventing her from going out. That room where she was in was the only one without damage.

A few days later, my father-in-law was also protected from danger when he headed over to our farmhouse to monitor our business. When he was there, the farmhouse, which was made of light materials, was swaying due to the strong winds. Thankfully, a tree fell on top of the house and put weight over it, preventing the whole house from being blown away. My father-in-law and our farm workers, who were taking shelter in that house, were all protected.

It was also a divine appointment for my father-in-law to be at the farmhouse because his own house was affected by the 10-feet storm surge at that time. He is half paralysed and it would have been disastrous if he was at home.

My sister-in-law who lived near the ground zero community was eight months pregnant and was with her six-year-old son during the storm. Thankfully, the storm surge stopped rising only a few meters away from their house. They were both protected.

When we learnt that our family members were alive, my husband decided to go home and bring them out of the city.

That day, when my husband was about to go into Tacloban, I called up the church’s hotline. I thank God I had someone to talk to and pray with because my emotions then was overwhelming. I was very scared and helpless because of the reported chaos back home and my dear husband would soon go into the "no communication" zone.

Praise God that all our family members were accounted for and my husband was able to bring them out to another city safely.

During his trip, he also saw God working on his behalf — from the availability of vans and drivers who were willing to go inside the city of "unknown", to meeting the perfect ferry timing to transport vehicles in and out of our island.

Most of all, days before what happened, Jesus had been speaking to me and my husband about Him fighting our battles for us. This was our comfort during these times of doubts and uncertainties.

Thank you Pastor Prince for helping us understand Jesus and His finished work. These truths have been our anchor when we did not understand everything else. We know that restoration has been bestowed to us, our families and our city, and it continues to manifest.

Blessed Survival Despite Being on the Brink of Death Twice

On 22 July 2014, my brother visited my 85-year-old mother early in the morning and found that she was not feeling well. She was admitted to the hospital where her condition deteriorated quickly.

At around noon, she was delirious and her blood pressure was dropping. She was then sent to the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) where she was sedated and intubated. The doctors monitored her closely and were ready to resuscitate her anytime.

After an emergency abdominal scan was done, they discovered that gall stones were blocking her bile duct, resulting in infection and septicaemia (toxins in the blood). Both her kidneys had shut down and she was not responding to the strong antibiotics.

We were told that she had to undergo an emergency procedure to clear the blockage. But this procedure could only be performed in another hospital with the right equipment and expertise. However, there was no available beds in that hospital’s ICU. We had to wait and time was definitely not on our side as my mum’s condition was getting worse. We were told to prepare for the worst.

But in less than five minutes, the doctor came in with news that the hospital just had an empty bed. Immediately, we knew that God had helped us while we were at a loss what to do next.

My mum was then transferred to the second hospital. That night, we were told by doctors that they could not proceed with the procedure because my mum’s blood could not clot and she may bleed to death. In the meantime, they transfused blood plasma and platelets into my mum, and continued to give her medications to improve her blood pressure.

The next morning, the specialists proceeded with the procedure in spite of her very ill condition as they needed to treat the source of the problem. We were informed twice that it would be a very challenging procedure. I believed God provided a way, and thankfully, the procedure was successful.

But two hours later, my mum’s condition suddenly took a turn for the worst. We were told to gather all our family members to see her for the last time as she might not be able to pull through.  

The whole family was devastated. We called up the church office and Pastor Soo Teck from the Chinese Ministry came in the evening to pray for her. Just before he ended his prayer, my mum suddenly moved her right hand strongly and we were so astonished, happy and energised with hope!

From then on, my mum showed good signs of recovery. Seeing that her condition had stabilised, the doctors started her on a kidney dialysis that night. However, God had a better plan! In just a couple of hours, her kidneys which had shut down, started to function again. The team of ICU doctors were amazed and even told me to continue praying to my God. They also reduced the number of drugs administered for my mum’s heart and blood pressure.

We flooded my mum’s ward with Mandarin and Hokkien Christian songs, and prayed aloud every day so that she could hear us.

On 25 July, my mum was able to nod her head to let us know that she liked listening to the songs and hearing us pray. The next day, she could sit up on a chair, and that afternoon, the doctor removed her endotracheal breathing tube and she was given oxygen via a nasal prong. She was able to open her eyes and obey simple instructions.

A few days later, she was moved to a general ward and the doctors were planning for her to be discharged. However, a couple of weeks later, my mum became very stubborn and didn’t want to carry out her rehabilitation exercises.

On 14 August evening, we were told by doctors that my mum had pneumonia in her right lung and the doctors administered very strong antibiotics. The next morning, the doctor informed us that my mum was not doing well and she couldn’t breathe. They asked to meet the family members. We rushed to the hospital and was again told to prepare for the worst.  

Doctors said that her infection was affecting her breathing and was causing her to slip into unconsciousness. This time, her chance of surviving was even lower.  

We could not do anything except to pray, and we got Pastor Soo Teck to come and pray with us in the ward. My mum nodded her head in agreement when pastor asked if he could pray for her. We had a wonderful time of prayer and worship in Hokkien. Our hearts were so full of peace during the whole session.

The next day, the nurse told us that my mum was more awake and was able to get out of bed with the help of the nurse to sit on the chair. She was also able to take a sip of coffee.

Daddy God is indeed merciful and faithful. When our faith was low, He showed up. My mum was discharged on 30 August 2014 and the gall stones in her body were completely removed.

My family and I are so touched to experience our heavenly Father’s awesome goodness. We want to appreciate New Creation Church and Pastor Soo Teck for visiting and praying with us. Thank you Pastor Prince for your teachings on grace and Psalm 91 — which was very timely for our family. And of course, the biggest thanks and glory go to our Lord Jesus Christ!

Protected by God’s Shield of Love

On 14 November 2013, a friend was coming over to pick me up at 9am. After I got changed, I partook of the Holy Communion and meditated on Psalm 5. The last verse was on the Lord blessing the godly and that He surrounds us with His shield of love. Just as I was about to meet my friend, I was prompted to anoint myself with some anointing oil.

It had rained a while ago and the road was slippery. As we approached a bend leading into the expressway, our car suddenly skidded and went out of control.

The front wheels hit the curb on the right and our car started to spin. We swung to the left and crashed hard into the metal barriers along the road. The airbags were inflated and we mounted the curb before the car skidded to a stop in the opposite direction of the traffic.

I was stunned but amazingly, I wasn’t fearful. I experienced a peace like never before because when the whole accident happened, I was thinking of Jesus.

We checked ourselves after we got out of the car. There were a few small scratches on our bodies, and that was all. The damage on the car was bad — the front was smashed and the window at the driver’s seat was shattered. The metal barrier next to the road had dislodged due to the impact.

We looked around and realised that we were the only ones on that section of the road! If there were other vehicles on the road, we could have been caught in a multiple pile-up. We instantly knew that this was a miracle because there was no way our car would have stopped so perfectly!

When the medics and policemen arrived, they were shocked to see no casualties. Daddy God was definitely there and it was He who surrounded us with His shield! Praise the Lord!

Protected from Deadly Bangkok Explosion

I am sure many would have heard of the bombing that happened in Bangkok, Thailand on 17 August 2015.

I was in the Siam Paragon area that very afternoon and wanted to get to Central World Plaza (diagonally opposite the bomb explosion area) to continue shopping. That was probably around six plus in the evening. But suddenly, I felt too lazy to walk to the mall and decided to take the train back to the hotel where I was staying. After alighting from the train, I heard sirens and saw police cars driving by. Totally unaware that a bomb had just gone off, I thought to myself that it was probably an accident.

It was only after I got back to my room when I saw messages from my loved ones and friends asking me if I was alright that I realised the severity of the incident. While watching the news unfold on television, fear started to creep in. I tried to stay calm but I also could not contain my fear when I thought of how I could have been at the scene when the bomb exploded.

I praise the Lord for my care group leader and overseer who reminded me to pray Psalm 91 over myself and to pray in tongues.

I am very grateful to God for His protection and how He had put me at the right place at the right time. In this case, He led me away from the wrong place.

What’s more amazing was that about three months ago, when I was trying to book my accommodation for this trip, I wanted to book a hotel which was near the explosion site, to pamper myself. However, there were just no rooms available at all. If I had booked a room there, I would definitely have walked past that very intersection. How He sees the future that we cannot see!

Hand Saved from Injury

I am a teacher and in June 2015, I volunteered to go to Myanmar to share teaching pedagogies with the trainee teachers there.

Together with 12 trainee teachers and three other teachers from Singapore, we travelled to the school in a pickup every day. Each time, I would hold on to the iron bar on the outside of the pickup so I wouldn’t fall onto anyone in the vehicle.

Every day, I would pray that it would be a safe trip. One morning, I was travelling to school as usual, and as I looked out at the traffic and thanked God for a safe trip, I felt a voice telling me to move my hand away from the bar and keep it in.

Just as I put my hand in, there was a loud crash and all of us in the pickup screamed. I looked up and realised that a public bus had crashed into our pickup at the exact spot where my hand had been, causing the iron bar to bend. None of us was hurt except for our frayed nerves.

If I had not moved my hand away from the iron bar, my hand would have been crushed. I believe it was the voice of our heavenly Father that prompted me that day! Praise the Lord!

Protection from Falling Tree

Every time before I drive, I make it a point to pray for protection. On 31 March 2012, I did so and started driving towards the city. This was shortly after a big thunderstorm.  

Heavy traffic had built up at the major traffic junction along Upper Bukit Timah Road. I was stuck in the traffic and the cars were inching forward. Like many motorists, I got impatient and tried to squeeze ahead. But when I was just approaching the junction, the traffic light suddenly turned red and I was disappointed that I had not moved as far as I had hoped to.

Then I heard a strange crackling sound and a huge old tree, which was about 30 metres long, fell very quickly right before my eyes. It hit the roof of the car immediately in front of me and because of the huge impact, the tree created a dent in the roof of the car, instantaneously shattered the rear windscreen and even bounced.

I was shocked as it had happened near my car. Then I was very overwhelmed and felt very grateful to God when I realised that He had placed me at the right place and at the right time such that my car stopped short of disaster. By God’s grace, the tree had fallen on the rear part of the affected car where no one was seated, and I thanked God that the driver of the car emerged unscathed.

This incident further strengthened my faith in the power of Jesus' blood for divine protection over my family and me. It also gave me a stronger sense of His love for us. Even after driving for more than 10 years now, I still say a short prayer before I start driving because I know that I cannot depend on my own flesh and effort to be accident-free, safe and healthy.

I am very thankful to Jesus for His divine protection. Without His wings of protection over me, I may not even be alive to write this today. Thank You Jesus. To You be the glory.

Protected from Shattered Glass Door

On the morning of Thursday, 26 November 2015, I received a call from my staff informing me that a glass–sliding door in my office had shattered and collapsed when he came to work that day. Needless to say, I felt perturbed hearing to this.

As I made my way to my office, I tried my best not to worry or be in fear. So I put on some praise music in the car as I drove.

I also remembered Pastor Lim Lian Neo’s message from the previous Sunday which was about giving praise to God in the midst of our circumstances. And the day before, I read a devotional about keeping our joy and confessing our joy in the Lord.

When I arrived at my office, I was taken aback to see the extent of the damage. The handle of the glass panel fell against the wall and the impact of the force had even caused some glass fragments to be embedded into the partition wall, which was at the entrance to my room. I also noticed a wood fragment on a glass panel nearby which came from the bench adjacent to the panel.

When we checked the CCTV footage, I found out that the incident happened on the previous day at about 6.43pm, just shortly after I had left the office. When I discovered the timing of the incident, I could only praise God that I wasn’t around when it happened. Sometimes, I would stay in the office till 7pm. But on the day the glass panel shattered, I had left at about 6pm to go to the gym.

Praise God for His protection!

No Passengers Hurt Despite Being Hit by Heavy Vehicle

On 20 January 2016, I got into a car accident in the afternoon which could have been far worse than it was.

I was turning my car into a parking lot at the side of the road when a commercial vehicle carrying oil wastes rammed into the back of my car.

The impact was so big that my windscreen was completely smashed, but thank God we had a lot of luggage bags in the car boot, which probably cushioned the impact of the crash. None of the broken glass landed on us and no one in the car was hurt, including the two kids, who were seated at the back passenger seats. Praise the Lord for His protection!

Thankfully, the accident happened during the off–peak hours so there was no pile–up along the narrow road even though there were other cars behind the vehicle. A car that was parked along the road narrowly missed by a few inches.

During the whole time, my CD player was playing Pastor Prince’s sermon that was preached two Sundays ago titled The Battle Is the Lord’s.

Though we were shaken by the accident, we managed to get the car to the service centre. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for reminding us that we should not take our safety for granted, and because of that, I had taken time to pray before driving that week.

Experiencing God’s Goodness After Receiving Christ

My experience with our Lord Jesus started with a chance encounter with Pastor Joseph Prince and his wife Wendy in 2012.

Back then, I was not a believer although my wife was a Christian. But I still remember very much the words Pastor Prince spoke to me that day. He told me that nothing happens by chance and he even prayed over me and my family as my wife was then pregnant. I also remembered Pastor Prince inviting us to come to church.

Due to my past conflicting views on religion, I was convinced that I could not be right with Christ. My wife often asked me to attend church but I always managed to rebuff her request.

In October 2014, my wife began to attend New Creation Church with a good friend of hers. Then in two months’ time, I attended my first church service with my wife as it was her birthday and her friend had to go overseas for work. Since it was her birthday wish for me to attend service with her, I could not say no.

After that service, seeds of Jesus’ love sowed by Pastor Prince three years ago began to sprout. Although my job required me to work on Sundays, things changed within the same week when my colleague volunteered to work every Sunday. How loving of our God to turn things around so I can spend time in His house! Shortly after, I received Christ.

That’s just the beginning of Daddy God’s work in my life. One of my wife’s prayer requests for 2015 was for me to get a job that was interesting, had good opportunities, good pay and God–fearing bosses. And in just a couple of months, I went through three rounds of interview for a management role at a well–known company.

Throughout the interview process, I rested completely in Jesus’ finished work. Before this, I had never breezed through and aced interviews like how I did this time round. And by simply relying on Daddy God’s wisdom and favour, I was offered the job despite my young age and complete lack of experience in management. I later found out that my direct boss is a believer! It’s amazing how Daddy God answers prayers so quickly and precisely!

I had favour with my team at work and my career had also taken a great turn. With this closeness and reliance on our Lord Jesus, my marriage was strengthened too. I knew from then on, it’s not whether I am right for Christ, but Jesus is always ready and right for me.

Two weeks back, I took on one of the most gruelling challenges in my life — to scale Mount Kilimanjaro. I asked many friends to join me but nobody was interested. In the end, I went alone. I booked the climb even though I didn’t have the time and strength to train for it and set off during Singapore’s Jubilee weekend.

I was never convinced I could make it but ever since I was a new creation in Christ, I felt nothing could stop me from scaling this mountain. I already have the victory in Christ.

Throughout the six–day climb, I suffered from dehydration, severe diarrhoea, colds, headaches, extreme tiredness and acute mountain syndrome (AMS). The temperature ranged from 28°C to –20°C. I began to doubt if I could do it but I continued to pray every night, crying out for God’s help, healing and strength.

Just a day before my last push for summit, I realised all my seven crew members were Christians. My tent crew even came to me and told me, “In Jesus’ name, you will reach the summit. Do not worry, Sir!” And I replied with a loud, “Amen!”

It was then that I was reminded how our Daddy Father is so good and always with us by sending His angels to watch over us. Due to my severe diarrhoea, I had to go to the loo every 30 minutes and as a result, I only slept two hours on the day we were due to make the summit. I was extremely tired and also suffered from severe bruising and swelling at my joints.

But I told my crew to bring me up to the summit, knowing that God’s favour surrounds me as with a shield and He would see me all the way up.

After 10 hours of climbing through the night, half a step at a time, I finally scaled the roof of Africa with no grain of effort from myself because I know that throughout the six–day climb, it was God who sustained me to fulfil my dream. All glory and praise to the Lord!

My wife later told me that she prayed for me to have a closer walk with God and indeed, this trip allowed me to “walk with Jesus” like never before.

My marriage and life have been transformed completely. Our family now looks forward to church every Sunday, especially my two–and–a–half–year–old princess who loves to sing, Jesus Is My Best Friend!

Thank you Pastor Prince for sowing seeds of God’s love in my life three years ago. I am now a new creation filled with complete confidence knowing that God’s wisdom, favour and peace are forever with us. All praise, glory and honour to Lord Jesus!

God Is My Protector

During a recent Sunday service, I heard a testimony about God's protection. In the testimony, a family had a car accident. The back of the vehicle was badly damaged due to the collision, but the children were unharmed and sleeping soundly in the back seat near the point of impact. A photo of the peacefully sleeping children was shown on screen and that image stayed in my mind for a long time.

On 1 February 2013, at around 11pm, I boarded a bus home from a conference and wanted to take the seat closest to the exit. But just when I wanted to sit down, I felt a prompting from God that I should take the seat a few rows behind. I heeded that prompting and moved further behind.

Less than an hour later, the bus mounted the curb while making a turn and it hit a traffic light at considerable speed. Instead of stopping, the bus continued to complete its turn, dragging the traffic light along for around 100 meters. Then, the traffic light that was stuck beneath the bus suddenly flipped up and hit the window on the right side of the bus, shattering the glass. The bus eventually came to a stop close to a bus stop.

To my surprise, the window that was shattered was exactly at the seat that I initially wanted to sit on! Thank God for His prompting to take the seat that was a few rows behind.

I felt exactly like the peaceful little children sleeping in the back seat of the damaged car, completely unharmed or disturbed by the accident. God is indeed our protector in times of trouble!

Thank you New Creation Church for sharing these testimonies! Indeed, faith comes by hearing and as we hear about God’s goodness and favour upon our fellow brothers and sisters in Christ, hope arises in us to believe that He can and will do the same for us! Thank You Jesus! Hallelujah!

The Spirit Prays Perfect Prayers

I’m from the Philippines, and have lived in Singapore since January 2011. I grew up in a religious family, attended Bible courses since high school and was baptised in Singapore in October 2011.

I desire to learn about God and to serve him. But when I was baptised, I felt that something was missing, I continued to attend church and prayed to God every day, but I still thought that some teachings I’d heard did not fit with what I’d read in the Bible.

In December 2012, a friend whom I hadn’t talked to for a long time called me and invited me to attend a New Creation Church service. I was a little hesitant at first, but obliged. The sermon caught my attention and it resonated with me.

I was so excited to attend service the next Sunday to feed on Pastor Joseph Prince’s teachings. When Pastor Prince started preaching on the gift of speaking in tongues, I thought to myself that I may not like this, but then everything he said was so clear and he explained it so well that I accepted what was taught.

When I went home, I prayed and asked God for the gift of speaking in tongues. I remembered Pastor Prince sharing how when we pray in the spirit, the Holy Spirit intercedes for us and we can pray about things we are unaware of. To illustrate, he gave an example of how a mother can be praying in tongues while she is doing her chores, not knowing that she was declaring God’s protection over her child at that very moment. Though I wondered how I would know this to be true, I brushed away my doubts and kept on praying in tongues.

On my way to work, I read a status update from my 22-year-old son who’s living in the Philippines. He posted that on his way home last night, he and a female friend were crossing the street when she was hit by a motorbike. The girl was injured and couldn’t stand. Then, that morning, he was in a vehicle when the driver suddenly hit the brakes. The person beside him hit a hard object and bled profusely but my son was fine.

I almost cried. I knew God had revealed to me the power of praying in tongues. Thank you Pastor Prince, you are really being used by God.

Baby Delivered Safely Despite Complications

After a miscarriage in 2008, I was scared to even try for another child until a year later. For most part, my pregnancy was supernaturally smooth. I had no morning sickness, swelling of my feet or hands, or backaches. Even then, I was still very nervous at each gynaecologist check-up. But our heavenly Father kept assuring me that He is right beside me, holding my hand. I was still very energetic throughout my 39th week of pregnancy and I kept wondering when my baby would arrive. Scans during a check-up revealed that my baby’s head was still not engaged in my pelvic cavity and my cervix had not started dilating.

At the next check-up, I told my gynaecologist about the cramps I felt the night before and she had me do a test on the cardiotocography (CTG) machine. Without any explanation, I was suddenly ushered to another level to take an X-ray of my pelvis. It felt like I was having strong contractions already, but my baby was still not engaged and my cervix still had not started dilating. My gynaecologist realised that my pelvis was too narrow. That explained why my baby’s head was not engaged all along.

A couple of hours later, my gynaecologist checked on me and discovered that my cervix had already dilated to about 6–8cm. I was wheeled into the delivery ward and God reminded me gently that He is with me! I soon gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. My gynaecologist asked if I saw my baby’s dimples. None of our family members have dimples, and I remembered requesting from Abba for my baby to have dimples. All glory to Jesus and His finished work at the cross!

Prayer request fulfilled: Found a job in an MNC after two layoffs

I work in the IT industry. In June 2022, I was made redundant because the company wasn't doing well. By God's grace, I landed another job a month later. But before the year ended, I was let go again as my role was outsourced. What a double whammy to be laid off twice in such a short time!

So, my 2022 didn't end so well. But I saw the opportunity to put my job expectations down as one of my three prayer requests for 2023, which is to get a position where I can be a blessing. Instead of letting grudges and condemnation consume me, I turned to the Lord for His direction.

God led me to take my job search restfully and showed me that it was a good opportunity for me to explore other areas like cybersecurity. My church friends also stood in faith with me and prayed for my job situation. 

In March 2023, I was approached by a headhunter for a position in a multinational corporation (MNC). I went for the interview and prayed for wisdom, favour, and good success. I followed my dad's advice on looking up the company. I also felt the Lord tell me to enjoy myself at the interview.

Throughout the interview, I felt calm and answered the questions honestly and truthfully. At the end of it, I was shortlisted for the second interview. At the second interview, I felt a peace that surpassed all understanding. Later, I was informed that the company would be offering me a contract role. I believe this is a huge open door for me. My past few jobs were in small and midsize enterprises, and I'd been praying for bigger opportunities. Furthermore, this role also gives me time to learn how to fit into a big corporation.

Eventually, I was given an offer which was 30 per cent higher than what I expected and 65 per cent more than my last drawn salary! I was also given 18 days of annual leave and a mobile allowance. Besides that, I would also be covered by company insurance. I barely contained myself when I heard the news! I had NEVER gotten such an offer before. And do you know how kairos the call was? It was during my birthday month, right before all the birthday celebrations! It was my best birthday gift ever! 

No words can express my gratitude and happiness on receiving this blessing. Thank You, Jesus!

Received favour in job search in The Kairos Year Of Right Time, Right Place

Recently, the company that I was working at got acquired, and many employees, including me, were let go. I had to exit Singapore with my family if I did not find another job in time. I reached out to many people and had many interviews, but I kept getting rejected. I started wondering what was wrong and why it was not happening.

At the same time, I had to change my accommodations as the landlord didn't agree to extend the contract. We prayed together as a family and believed that God would not leave nor forsake us in this situation.

After three months of active searching and trying hard in interviews, I ran out of leads. I was ready to take up any job, but nothing worked out for me. It was all dry, and I couldn't see any light ahead. Fear started building along with scary thoughts. I had sleepless nights, and my energy was low during the days.

During this period, I kept listening to sermons by Pastor Prince. I realised I had not relied on God's grace and favour. So, I changed my prayer from "God, please provide" to "God has already provided", and all I needed to do was to claim His promises. I started proclaiming God’s truth over facts and that God is our provider.

One day, I woke up and found a job posting online. There was no mutual friend or connection, and I didn't know the person who posted the job as he was based in the United States. I prayed and emailed him that I was interested in this job. The same day the person replied that he wanted to speak to me, and we spoke the next day.

After the conversation, he told me he liked me and had me speak with the global head, who also said the same thing. In the end, they decided to hire me. It was a casual talk and not like an interview, and everything happened very smoothly within one week.

I couldn't believe what was happening. It was indeed a kairos moment for me and a miracle in itself; as we know, hiring doesn't happen so fast anywhere, in any industry.

I started work a few months ago in a more prominent role than I previously had. Glory to God for His unmerited, undeserved favour.

Job Restoration Through Right Believing

I along with many of my colleagues, had been laid off due to a large-scale restructuring of the company that affected many employees globally.

Everyone, including our managers, was in shock because this came without warning. However, amidst the shock and panic, I strongly felt the Lord's peace within me. A sense of calm and joy also enveloped me during that time.

Later that day, I broke the news to my wife, and she was very understanding. Like me, she also felt God’s peace when I told her that I had been laid off. Together, we encouraged one another and held on to what Pastor Lawrence Lim had shared before: that God is always good, regardless of our circumstances, and that having a good opinion of God is important.

I started applying for jobs. I submitted applications for over 14 jobs but sensed that the working culture of those places were not suitable for me. However, a close brother-in-Christ approached me and told me about a job opening that he thought might be a good fit. So, I decided to apply. Throughout the application process, I felt the Lord’s favour over me, making the process feel light and easy. In the end, I was offered the job with a 55.53 per cent salary increment!  I knew that this was the Lord was telling me that it was because of His unmerited favour that I got this job offer.

I have since started working in my new job where I have supportive colleagues. Work has also been restful and full of God’s favour.

Furthermore, I began this new job three months after being laid off. This meant that the four-month severance pay from my previous company became a two-month bonus for me.

Thank You, Jesus, for always being good! The Lord always has a good plan even when we cannot see it. All glory goes to the Lord!

Received New Job After Receiving Encouragement From Godly Community

Early in the year, I found myself unemployed because the company was not doing well and had to close down. Losing my job was deeply painful because it was not just a position, but a dream job that offered a good salary.  

I started to apply for various jobs but was met with no reply. I felt lost and uncertain about what the future held for me.

However, I trusted in Daddy God’s love for me and believed that He would give me His best. My care group also pointed me to God’s grace and reminded me that His plans are always greater than mine. As such, I decided to join the Go Israel tour organised by our church a month later.

During the tour, my care group leader and tour leader encouraged the tour group, emphasising that because of Daddy God’s love for us, we can boldly ask of Him, confident that He wants to give us His best.

This greatly encouraged me and I began to pray for a job with better salary and benefits than my last. As I continued to pray during my time in Israel, I felt the urge to check my email inbox and found an invitation for a job interview sent three days ago. The interview was for a job position that I wanted.

I quickly arranged for the interview and shared the good news with my care group leader. We gave thanks for the open door and prayed for a good outcome. I also prayed that God will enlarge my territory and for me to be a testimony of His great work.

After coming back from Israel, I went for two rounds of interview and shortly after, I received the job offer with a salary 65 per cent higher than my previous one. Additionally, the position and benefits of this new job were far better than what I imagined. In my current position, I get to do what I’m passionate about and put my talents to good use. Only God can do it!!

I am writing this testimony with an overwhelming gratitude in my heart. I thank Daddy God for His faithfulness and provision, as well as for orchestrating circumstances that led me to my new job. Truly, His plans for me are far greater than I can ever imagine.  

I would also like to thank my care group leader and tour leader for encouraging me during the trip. Additionally, I feel blessed to be rooted in a care group that always encourages me and points me to the grace and goodness of God.

All glory to God!

Family business prospering in pandemic

I used to be a very passionate Christian. However, all that changed after I graduated from university and took over my family business more than 10 years ago.

The industry we are in is very competitive and highly regulated. Our company was struggling, and we were in debt. My family had to sell away properties, and I had no savings after slogging for 10 years. I got bitter towards my family, especially when I compared myself with my friends.

Some years back, a close Christian colleague, who attends New Creation Church, gave me Pastor Prince's book "The Prayer of Protection". However, I never touched the book. Then, one day I felt a tugging on my heart to read it. I also started listening to Pastor Prince's sermons, which changed my perspective of God and my life. I began to see Him moving in my family business and family life. I felt God telling me that He would restore the years I have lost—my finances, time, relationships, and health.

Though things were still challenging, I felt the Lord telling me that I may walk through the fire, but I will not be harmed. I also started reading the book "Live The Let-Go Life" by Pastor Prince. Little did I know that the pandemic would hit and have a big impact on our business. I remember listening to a sermon where Pastor Prince prayed and encouraged the people to be still and know He is God. He also mentioned that God's favour would cause good things to happen to us in an instant.

I held on to this prayer and the sharing in the "Live The Let-Go Life" book by Pastor Prince. I also started to tune in to New Creation Church's online services. In January 2022, Pastor Prince shared that it was The Year Of Rest And Acceleration. I felt that God was speaking to me, as the message tied in with living a let-go life. Hence, I decided to live every day resting in Him and not using my efforts.

During the pandemic, there were many businesses which wound up. However, God saw us through the fire, and we were not harmed. Not only did God sustain our business through government grants, but we also had business partners knocking on our doors.

At the end of 2022, our revenue and cash flow were even more than in pre-pandemic times. I even managed to bring in some side income for myself! Things happened so quickly in the year that I'm amazed. I see blessings all around me and sweet wine pouring off our mountains and hills. Thank You, Jesus. Thank you, Pastor Prince and the New Creation Church team, for sharing the gospel of grace and always pointing us to Jesus.

Positioned at right time & place during holiday trip

My wife and I have been experiencing many right time, right place moments even before the theme was released, just like Pastor Prince shared when he declared 2023 as The Kairos Year Of Right Time, Right Place.

We travelled to Japan during the last two weeks of December 2022. Every day, we would pray and declare that Jesus was with us as our travel companion.

We visited many cities, including Sapporo. The day before we arrived at Sapporo, many train rides were cancelled due to a blizzard. But when we reached, it stopped snowing, and we could take the trains there.

Then, we left for Osaka, where we experienced lots of favour with the people we met and the servers at the restaurants we visited. They gave us freebies and also befriended us despite the language barrier. We even got to dine in places that required reservations to be made months ahead, but there were always seats for us when we walked in due to no-shows by other guests.

Finally, when we returned to Singapore, we learnt that we had boarded one of the last few flights back due to an unexpected closure of the air traffic system. Most of the flights had to be cancelled or make a detour, causing many the passengers to be stranded.

I can’t express how loved we felt on this trip. With Jesus, we get to enjoy the best moments at the right time, right place. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for sharing the theme of the year!

Got dream job by being at the right place, right time

I was very discouraged in the last two years because my dream to become a violinist seemed to have failed when I couldn't get into the university I wanted. And as we were in the midst of the pandemic, circumstances withheld me from continuing to pursue my dream.

At that time, I remained home without a job or a degree. So, I decided to spend more time with Jesus, to get to know Him more, and let Him fix my life. God led me to Pastor Prince's sermons, and my life has completely changed. I learned that true life comes when we realise that Jesus is all that matters. To know Him is real success. I had no idea what to expect for my future, but I knew that with God, nothing is impossible. So, I asked Him to give me a position even though I had no degree.

In December 2022, someone heard me play the violin in the churchand took notice of me that day. The following month, Pastor Prince declared that 2023 was The Kairos Year Of Right Time, Right Place, and he ended the service, praying for us to experience qarah (right happenings) even in the coming week. 

The day after Vision Sunday, I got a call about a job opportunity in music teaching. The person who noticed me some weeks ago recommended me for the job. I knew that it was the favour of God. He placed me to be in the right place at the right time. Now, I have a job I've always dreamed of.

All praise and glory to Jesus! Thank you, Pastor Prince, for always pointing to Jesus!

Received backpay of salary

When Pastor Prince shared the theme of the year, my heart leapt for joy. It was such a good word for the dark times we live in, and I am glad to be found in the house of God to receive the word for myself.

After the service, my husband and I started sharing what we had caught from the sermon. For me, I could not stop thinking about what Pastor Prince shared on the prayer of Abraham’s servant when he was looking for a bride for his master’s son, Isaac; and how Rebekah came along and offered him and his camels water.

So, I told my husband that this is the kairos year and that I am loved and chosen by God; therefore, things will happen in my favour. After all, Pastor Prince did say that God can change the laws and orchestrate circumstances just for us!

The next day, I received a text from my company’s human resource department, wanting to have an urgent chat with me regarding a change in my pay. My heart sank as it didn’t sound like good news to me, and I thought I had to pay back some money.

So, I met up with the human resource staff and honestly, I dreaded it. But to my complete disbelief, the staff told me that I was supposed to receive a salary increase close to four years ago when I took my no-pay leave. However, somehow it was not credited to me, and they apologised for it! The staff even said they would pay back the increment they owed me for the last three years, including the bonuses.

I was trying to contain my excitement when I heard the news because how would I have known that they owed me money?

As the staff was calculating the amount to pay me, I mentioned that it must have been a lot of work doing this for me and the others. But the staff smiled and said, “Thankfully, it is only you.”

I felt so loved by the Lord and teared there and then. I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that that was a kairos moment for me. By the end of the week, I received the payout. What an incredible week, just in time for the Chinese New Year.

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for releasing the word. I’m looking forward to many more kairos moments the Lord has for us this year!

Received favour in job search in The Year Of Rest And Acceleration

I started listening to Pastor Prince's messages 10 years ago and learned so much about God's goodness, kindness, grace, and love.

Late last year, I was still out of a job even though I had been searching for some time and had grown tired of it. In addition, my visa was going to expire, and I would be deported if I did not get a job.

While travelling on holiday, I felt God teaching me to ask for one thing, which is to know Jesus better. I was also excited when I learnt that this year's theme is rest and acceleration, and I listened to the message several times.

I also felt the Lord telling me that He has heard me and instructing me to sing praises to Him instead of complaining.

Soon, I was offered a job where I would be on probation for six months. Due to the regulations in Germany, my salary would not qualify me for a visa. I told my boss about the issue, and on the same day, the company decided to give me a full-time role and doubled my salary! It has been almost a year since I joined the company, and the Lord has greatly blessed me.

All glory to God, and thank you, Pastor Prince, for your teachings!

Experienced accelerated blessings in new job

Last year, due to various reasons, I had to leave my previous job without securing another one, even in the midst of a global recession. In the natural, it felt like I was taking a risk and doing a foolish thing, but deep down, I knew God that would provide. 

Months before my last day at work, I was contacted by a company for a chat. Everything went well but after that, I was informed that the company didn't have a position for me. I had every reason to be disappointed and discouraged, but somehow, there was an unexplainable peace within me. 

Weeks later, the same company contacted me and offered me a job that not only paid better than what I used to receive, but the scope and role were also what I enjoyed doing. 

That's not all! Towards the end of the year, just a few months into the job, I was offered a promotion to a management role with an increase in pay which I honestly did not expect as promotions like these would usually take years to happen! 

When I heard the theme of the year for 2022 was The Year Of Rest And Acceleration, I knew I had to write this testimony. Truly, I am blessed not because of what I have done, but because of God’s goodness. 

It is like what Pastor Prince always preaches—as God's beloved, we don't have to chase after blessings, but blessings will hunt and chase us down. Praise the Lord!

Missing money reversed back into bank account

I have been watching New Creation Church’s online services for the past two years. On 13 January 2022, I transacted a five-figure amount into my trading account which went missing. I raised a complaint with my bank, requesting for a reversal of the amount, and there was no response.

Meanwhile, I claimed the amount in Jesus’ name. Days later (16 January), during an online service, Pastor Prince mentioned about a five-figure amount which was lost, that would be retrieved! I knew it was for me and received it.

Two days after that, the bank reversed the amount into my bank account. All glory to God!

Property Rented Out In Accelerated Way

Every time I visited Singapore before the pandemic, I would always make it a point to visit New Creation Church. I’m so thankful that I can now watch the services online every week.

Earlier this year, Pastor Prince released the theme of the year—rest and acceleration—and talked about Amos 9:13. He mentioned the following week the same verse in The Message version, which says that things will happen so fast our heads will swim, and everywhere we look, there will be blessings!

I believed it in my heart and prayed at that moment that my newly-renovated condo unit would be rented out to a good tenant.

Immediately after the service, I received a message from my dad, telling me that a couple was urgently looking for accommodation. I also received a call from my condo’s security guard that there was an interested tenant. I later received a third call from my property agent, who told me that a tenant saw my condo’s photos, and was willing to rent the place without viewing the unit in person, and confirmed the deal on the spot.

Praise the Lord, it is indeed The Year Of Rest And Acceleration! Thank you, Pastor Prince, for the NOW word.

Blessed with twins after prayer

My husband and I had had a desire for a baby for many years. In 2019, I decided to go for in-vitro fertilisation (IVF) as I was getting older. However, it was not successful. In 2020, I tried again, and failed again.

I was sad and also lost. During that period, my boss encouraged me in the Lord, and reminded me to turn to Him.

During an online service on Sunday, 8 November 2020, Pastor Prince prayed over someone for a fruitful womb and I immediately claimed the blessing for myself. He also mentioned that God would resurrect the womb, regardless of age.

I felt so encouraged after the prayer. In late 2020, I received the news that I was pregnant with twins! My baby boys were born healthy in July this year. God has completed my family with not one, but two babies. Praise Him!

Lost wallet with important documents found

18 July 2021 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

At the start of July, I realised that I had lost my wallet. It contained important things like my bank cards and my identification card as well.

I did not feel worried or anxious, and I did not rush to get my identification card replaced. I believed that my wallet would be found and returned to me, and because of that belief, I felt a sense of peace.

On Sunday, 18 July, Pastor Prince prayed for someone who had lost an important document, and proceeded to declare that it would be found in the coming week. When I heard that, I said “Amen” immediately and received the prayer for myself.

After a few days, I received a letter from the police informing me that my wallet has been found! Praise the Lord who looks after me and takes care of even the little things in my life.

Unmerited Favour in Her Studies and Work

About 10 years ago, I had a mid–career change of jobs. I was apprehensive and prayed for wisdom to make the right decision. Finally, after much prayer, I received a word from the Lord regarding 1 Thessalonians 5:24, “He who calls you is faithful, who also will do it”. Believing that the Lord is faithful, I sent out my application and it was accepted against all odds as most of the other applicants were all former heads of departments. I was grateful to the Lord for this unmerited favour.

After a year on the job, I pursued a Master’s Degree programme as I felt rather inadequate with my existing skills. It was a big step as I had graduated 20 years ago and much had changed. I had a tough time and prayed fervently for supernatural favour as I struggled to juggle my family, job and studies. Fortunately, I am blessed with a supportive spouse who prayed and helped me through this time. I prayed for grace to master the IT skills that I needed to retrieve materials such as research papers and journals.

I also prayed that I would pass and not get thrown out in the middle of the programme. To my amazement, I passed with high distinctions and was the top student. I knew that this had nothing to do with my own efforts. It was the work of our mighty God, who never fails when we throw ourselves at His feet and depend totally on Him.

In spite of these successes, I faced many challenges at my workplace which made me question my decision to switch jobs. I cried out to the Lord and read Psalm 91:15, “He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him and honour him.” At that time, I found it hard to believe the promise in that verse as I was very distressed.

Soon after, a friend told me that she was resigning from her job and asked if I wanted to be transferred there as she was doing the same job as myself. It was a refreshing change and I thanked God for it.

In my new workplace, God blessed me tremendously as I continued to rely on Him daily. The job was emotionally draining and I often felt like giving up because I saw little success in what I was doing. But the Lord lifted me up with an unexpected blessing when I was given the Excellence Service Award in the department. And recently, I could barely contain my gratitude to my heavenly Father when I received the PS21 Service Excellence Award and PS21 Distinguished Service Award. I know that none of this was based on my self–efforts, but it was the result of God’s unmerited favour and grace that Pastor Prince has been preaching about!

Landed In Desired Job

Three years after graduating from high school, I had not been able to secure a job, neither had I received any calls for an interview.

On 18 October, Pastor Prince prophesied in his closing prayer and encouraged the people to be expectant that they would run smack into God’s goodness and unexpected favour that very week.

The next day, on Monday, I got a phone call for an interview that Wednesday for my dream retail job. Not only did I receive unexpected favour from the interviewer during my interview, but that same week on Saturday, I received a call saying I had got the job even though I had no retail experience at all!

I know that this is where God wants me to be, and I am so excited to see what God has in store for my future. That is the favour of God! Thank you so much, Pastor Prince!

Gave Birth To A Healthy Baby After Miscarriage

In April last year, I suffered a miscarriage and found out that I had a molar pregnancy, an abnormal form of pregnancy where the embryo fails to develop completely.

Our doctor advised us to wait for a year before trying for another baby. At the same time, I also terminated from a new job when my employers found out about my pregnancy. Nothing in my life seemed to be going smoothly.

One night, as I was in despair, I remembered my mother sharing with me about Pastor Prince and his sermons. I decided to attend New Creation Church with my husband. We started attending regularly and were renewed with strength each week. Despite all the bad things that were happening, we experienced an unspeakable joy and peace in our hearts.

I also received a new job offer during that time.

In September last year, we found out that I was pregnant again. I was initially worried as it had only been five months since my miscarriage. Then, at week 12 of my pregnancy, the doctor also told us that our baby could be at a high risk for Down syndrome and advised me to go for further tests.

My husband and I continued to pray and believe for a healthy baby, and we also partook of the holy Communion regularly. Praise the Lord, eventually, the results showed that the baby and I were both healthy.

Our baby Eva was delivered on 10 May 2020, healthy, and full of life. Praise the Lord, and thank you, Pastor Prince, for your grace-filled teachings!

Offered New Job Two Days After Being Laid Off

Earlier this year, I had been told by my supervisor that the company had to let me go because the firm was struggling amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. They needed to cut costs and unfortunately that involved the removal of my role. Just like that, I was let go the following day.

It felt surreal as I had been a good performer in the company and was supposed to be promoted this year. First, I was upset. Then came the worry, “What would I do now? I felt anxious and could not sleep the entire night following the call with my supervisor.

I began looking for a new job immediately. In the natural, it seemed like a big challenge due to the economic downturn. But I knew my God works in mysterious ways and that I stood on victory ground regardless of my feelings, situation, or what the newspapers said. I declared over myself, “Because Jesus is my shepherd, I shall not lack a job!

I held fast to who God says I am—the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus–as taught by Pastor Prince. The more I focused on God’s Word, the calmer I became. I told myself to let go and let God and meditated on His promises.

Two days later, I secured a new job! It was nothing short of a miracle. I was contacting people to inform them I was looking for a job. Suddenly, I felt a nudge in my spirit to message a business owner I knew. Turns out, he had been looking to fill a director-level position in his company. After a meeting and a call, I got the job. Praise the Lord!

When I told my friends, they were shocked. It was so unbelievable, it could only be the Lord Almighty. It is a good job with lots of opportunities to learn and grow.

How wonderful and awesome is my God? To Him be all the glory!

Hit Sales Target After Prayer

I have a job in a good company. However, as part of my current role, I have to do sales.

It is not easy for me as I am not a salesperson and do not have any experience. As of August, I had only met 35 per cent of my annual sales target. I was getting a bit concerned and prayed to God that He would help me meet my sales target for the year.

On 30 August 2020, during the Sunday service, Pastor Prince mentioned that within two weeks, business people would experience a breakthrough. He also said that there was a new business deal coming.

I believed and claimed this blessing for myself and my situation. Three days after that, I did an online sales presentation to a company. This was initiated by an old friend whom I had not been in touch with for some time.

As I was preparing for the presentation, the Holy Spirit prompted me to prepare some additional data that was not in the meeting agenda.

Lo and behold, during the presentation, the CEO of the company specifically asked for the extra information which I had prepared beforehand! Praise God, I managed to clinch the deal!

The value of this deal was exactly 65 per cent of my annual sales target. Just like that, I hit my sales target for 2020, even with my lack of sales experience! All glory to God.

Job restored with a higher position and salary

I was looking for a job switch since January, but there were no open doors. In August this year, I was asked to leave my company. However, I continued to hold on to the theme of the year and believed that the Lord would provide for me.

On 6 September, I was further encouraged after hearing a testimony of how a sister received a job with a good position.

In October, I received a job offer for a managerial position with a 50 per cent increase in my salary. In the natural, with my current experience, the managerial role should have taken me another three to four years to attain. The Lord has truly accelerated time for me!

I was initially concerned that my future employers would change their minds during the verification process. But on Sunday, 18 October, Pastor Prince declared to the viewers that they would experience the Lord’s grace manifesting abundantly the following week.

Sure enough, the verification process was completed smoothly and I officially joined the company on 27 October. Praise God for His grace!

Knee Condition Healed And Career Blessing

For the past five years, I had been having a right knee pain which resulted in difficulties getting up after sitting down.

I had consulted doctors and undergone various treatments, including taking a steroid jab and flushing out excess fluid around the knee joint. But the condition did not get better. The doctors diagnosed it as wear and tear due to my age, which is 55.

Seven months ago, my knee condition deteriorated after I had a fall at the wet market. To help with the pain, I took medication.

Around the same time, during one of the online services, Pastor Prince prayed for those with knee conditions. I stood up to receive the healing for myself.

After Pastor Prince prayed, I moved my knee and realised that the stiffness on both the front and the back of my right knee was gone! Miraculously, the area which was painful due to the fall also disappeared completely. There was no more pain in my knee!

In addition, Pastor Prince also mentioned that someone would receive good news regarding his or her career in two weeks. At that time, I had applied for a therapist position and right after the prayer, my application was granted and I started at the role exactly two weeks after. Praise the Lord!

A supernatural job offer

In November last year, I resigned from my job as I wanted a change of industry. I took up a six-month unpaid research role as I wanted to gain skills and expertise in a niche industry.
My intention was to start a new job immediately after that. However, due to COVID-19, it was not easy to find a job. I went for some interviews, but the offers were way short of my last-drawn pay. I felt anxious and worried about the whole situation.

On 30 August 2020, Pastor Prince said that some people would see a financial breakthrough within two weeks. I received the word for myself and decided to allow Jesus to take over and trust in His love for me. 

Two days later, I got a call for another interview. The interview went well and I eventually got an offer which was 25 per cent more than my last-drawn pay, and came with a bonus package! All these happened within two weeks as Pastor Prince had prophesised! Praise the Lord!

Supplied with a job

I had been out of work since I came back from New York with my family during the circuit breaker period in Singapore.

Due to the pandemic and the restrictions in place, the events industry had not been doing well. This made searching for a job more difficult as I only had direct job experience in that industry. To get by, I traded on the stock market, but that took a toll on me physically and mentally. When the circuit breaker ended, I knew it was time to be more proactive in my job search. I also started taking the required exams to be a financial advisor.

I was worried as I knew that it would take some time before I could generate regular income as a financial advisor, and my retired parents were also relying on my monthly contributions to support them financially.

In mid-August, I tuned in to Pastor Prince’s sermon on a Sunday. At the end of the sermon, Pastor Prince said that he saw a man who had lost his job and was extremely worried about his family’s finances, but did not want to tell them. Pastor Prince then declared that the man will see supply coming to him that week and he would know it was from the Lord. I broke down at that point as I knew he was referring to me.

Prior to that Sunday, I had reached out to an ex-colleague who was working as a headhunter and sent him my résumé. On Monday, I was called up for an interview. 
After a few more rounds of interviews, I secured an offer that was very close to my last drawn salary! I also passed one of the hardest modules in my financial advisory course.
God’s supply truly came and I knew it was all of Him, and none of me. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for that word of encouragement and hope. To Jesus be all the glory!

Lost Ring Found After Two Years

27 September 2020 Online Service: Ministering Testimony

Two years ago, I lost my diamond ruby ring. Since then, I have searched every corner of my house, but to no avail.

Last Sunday, Pastor Prince gave a word saying that someone had lost a valuable item in the house, and that God would restore it.

When I heard it, I immediately received the word for myself.

The next day, I felt led to clean up one of my drawers where I keep my old plastic bags. As I was emptying the drawer, lo and behold, I found my ring lying at the bottom of the drawer! It was unbelievable as there was no way I would have placed something so precious in that drawer!

Praise the Lord for restoring my lost ring!

Secured New Job Three Weeks After Being Retrenched

I have been in the tourism industry throughout my 11-year career. Two years ago, I felt that I needed to advance my career and started looking for a new job. I went for interviews, but there were no open doors. I was dismayed and began questioning my abilities.

When the COVID-19 pandemic started, I felt that there was no point in looking for another job. So, I continued where I was until I got retrenched two months ago.

Though the news came unexpectedly, I remembered walking into the office feeling at peace because I had just read Pastor Prince’s daily devotional titled Knowing Your Value Makes A Difference where he shared that grace will set us free from any fear, lack, guilt, curse and sin.

I am very thankful to Jesus that I received a good retrenchment package of about eight months’ salary. It then dawned on me that God had timed it in such a way that I could receive this package before I left the company. 

The week after, I started to think if I should be concerned about securing a new job as I had heard how the unemployment rate was on the rise.

Then, on Sunday, 26 July, Pastor Prince gave a word at the end of his sermon where he shared that there was a sister who had been retrenched and that supply was going her way.

I believed that that word was for me! From then on, I stopped fearing and started expecting God’s goodness and mercy in my life. I also kept Pastor Prince’s prayer in my phone to hear it over and over again.

Four days later, I got called up for an interview. Eventually, I was offered the job with a pay increment! I did a count and realised that I had only sent out five job applications and was employed three weeks after being retrenched!

Even though I am entering a new industry, I was given the responsibility to lead a team, and the job portfolio was an expanded one where I could see myself growing in. This is truly is a career progression God’s way!

Praise the Lord. Indeed, this is The Year of Time and Space where we will enter God’s rest and enjoy the treasures that He has prepared for us!

Blessed With A Job After Listening To Encouraging Sermons

At the beginning of April this year, I lost my job and was feeling hopeless as I searched for a new one.

With the lockdown that happened in India due to the COVID-19 situation, I tuned in to Pastor Prince’s messages through the church’s online services. I had previously avoided listening to Pastor Prince due to some misconceptions.

What started out as a casual hearing of the sermons turned into attentive listening, and even anticipation for Pastor Prince’s weekly messages. His messages about seeing God as my supplier brought freedom to me. My wife and my children also started to grow in their knowledge and understanding of Jesus.

Last Sunday, it was Pastor Lawrence Lim who preached. My faith was stirred up in me as I listened to his message. When Pastor Lawrence ended his sermon with a prayer for those who were unemployed, I lifted my hands and believed God for a job.

At that time, I had been out of job for more than two months. One week after that prayer, I received a job offer! The entire process was completed within a week. I was selected even though my age is 7 years above the usual age the company was looking to hire for that position. The human resource department also informed me that I was one of the two people selected out of 400 applicants.

Praise the Lord for what He’s doing in my life! Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your wonderful sermons, and Pastor Lawrence, for the amazing word preached!

A Wonderful Job Restoration

In August last year, I was terminated from my job due to a mistake that I made. I spiraled into depression, condemning myself for the mistake and blaming myself for losing my job.

During that season, I reminded myself that I am still the righteousness of God in Christ. I decided to use the free time to work on my own personal projects, which I did not have time for in the past. These projects also helped to build up my portfolio. I felt that this was a time of rest for me.

I started searching for a job in March this year. The Lord was faithful. I started receiving phone calls from headhunters the moment I started sending out my résumés.

At first, I was worried about how I was going to explain my termination to the interviewers. However, there was a peace within me as I answered the interview questions. Three weeks into my job search, I got a call for another interview.

The interview went smoothly, and I was offered the job that same week! Although the job is challenging at times, the Lord blessed me with helpful and supportive colleagues. I was even given the opportunity to be in charge of a project that would help boost the company’s productivity.

Despite me still being on probation, my boss wanted me to have the full benefits of a permanent staff. I also experienced favour with many in the company.

From being terminated in my previous company to having such a great job, the Lord has truly blessed me indeed.

God's Provision Over A Family

A month ago, my daughter was retrenched from her job. My husband had also been informed earlier this year that the company he was working in would be shut down. I am also jobless due to a lower back injury. Things seemed bleak and I worried about how we were going to pay our bills.

I have been listening to Pastor Prince’s sermons which always remind me to focus on the person of Jesus and what He did for me at the cross. The sermons also encourage me to believe and receive the supply of His grace. So, I continued to pray and give praise to the Lord, replacing my worries with peaceful thoughts.

One day, I came across Pastor Prince’s sermon on praying in tongues and listened to it. That day, I received the gift of praying in the Spirit and began to pray in tongues, and felt peaceful despite my circumstances.

Then, I listened to another sermon on the anointing oil and went on to pray and anoint my daughter’s pillow, desk, and the door of her room. Even though she was out of a job, she remained joyful and was subsequently blessed with a number of interviews. Before the month ended, my daughter was offered a job!

My daughter is now back to work. I know it is by God’s grace that she was offered a job in the midst of this pandemic. Not only that, I also received healing for my lower back and am able to get out of bed without any issues. My husband’s company told him that they would work out a new arrangement for him based on commissions, and he would not be out of a job! All praise and glory to the Lord!

A God-Crafted Job Even In Difficult Times

My family relocated for over a year when my husband was posted overseas. This meant that I had to take a break from the company that I was working at. The company was gracious to grant me a sabbatical.

However, upon my return, I was informed that I would have to leave the company as my role was no longer available. I was given a monetary package even though I had not contributed to the company at all over the past year.

I had been in contact with a boss I had previously worked for who had just moved on to another company. When he heard that I was on the lookout for a new job, he started to work on crafting a position for me in his company. Over the subsequent months, he continually updated me on the progress.

I knew that these things take time, but I did not expect it to be so long. As the months passed, I started to question God, and doubts crept in my mind as to whether I the job would happen or not.

There were many around me that told me to start looking for other options, and not to expect too much since I’d been out of the workforce for a year, especially during this season where many are losing jobs. However, deep down inside of me, there was a still, small voice of assurance from the Lord to wait.

The breakthrough finally came just as the circuit breaker measures eased further, when my ex-boss called me and offered me the role he had crafted with me in mind. A great sense of God’s love came upon me, and I felt so favoured by the Lord. I did not have to go through any interviews for it, and it was also a double promotion with an increment that super exceeded my expectations! God restored my career in this Year of Time and Space!

This was truly God’s unmerited favour on me as I did not have to do anything at all. He knows the perfect timing, and even in this season, He has provided me a way!

Job Restoration Despite The COVID-19 Season

I was on a sabbatical before COVID-19 came about. I did not anticipate the disruption of COVID-19 and was discouraged. I was worried and was not sure if I could find a job in the current climate.

Despite all the worries, the Lord still opened doors for me in the month of January and February. However, all these jobs require me to take a significant pay cut. I told myself to keep looking to Jesus and believed that the right job would come.

Sure enough, a job offer for a management position came along with more than 10% increment from my previous salary! The culture was excellent and even in the current season, the company is still experiencing growth.

I realised that God’s hands were there each step of the way, leading and guiding me. He has worked everything in my favour. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for preaching the Word so zealously.

All glory and praise goes to Jesus!

Received Visa Extension Amidst Uncertainties

My niece has been in Singapore under a tourist visa since March. Her initial plan was to visit her fiancé in Singapore, go back home to Indonesia, and return later for her solemnisation with him.

When the COVID-19 situation got worse, she was worried that if she went back, she would not be able to return to Singapore. In the midst of these uncertainties, she told me that she felt God reaching out to her. I encouraged her to simply respond by acknowledging His love and sharing her concerns with Him. She started to pray, and experienced peace in her heart.

When she applied to extend her stay in Singapore, the officials told her that the chances were slim. I encouraged her to leave the matter to the Lord, and to continue praying.

The Lord heard her cries! Her visa was extended for another two months, giving her enough time to complete her solemnisation in Singapore.

My niece also shared with us that God never felt so real in her life until this COVID-19 season when she realised that she needed to lean on and find rest in Him. She then prayed to receive Christ as her Saviour!

Indeed, in these times, the Lord is reaching out to many souls and saving them. He is truly the Lord of time and space!

Provision Every Step Of The Way

After renting a home for quite a while, my wife and I decided to purchase a flat of our own. We set our budget and committed the rest to the Lord.

Eventually, we found a place we really liked but it was beyond our budget. We continuously asked the Lord and prayed for Him to guide us in this decision—should we purchase the flat or not? As we prayed, we felt peace that He would provide for us, and decided to buy the flat.

True enough, the Lord was there with us every step of the way. From the initial down payment to the renovation of our home, we kept looking to the Lord for His provision, and witnessed His intervention in every area to supply all of our needs!

Today, we have a home to call our own, and Christ is the head of our house. All glory and praise goes to Him!

Supplied With Favour And Provision

In late 2018, I prayed for direction from the Lord to either continue a business that was not doing well or to look for a job. It was during that time that I received a call to discuss about a possible job.

The call came as a surprise as I had not been sending out resumes or started applying for jobs. I later realised that the hiring company is a high-ranking multi-national corporation, and the role which I was being called to apply for was in a management position. My qualifications were below what the job required, which added to my surprise. Additionally, the company’s office is within walking distance to my daughter’s nanny.

After a few rounds of interviews, I got the job. It was not easy as my boss demanded much from me and constantly asked for more. I struggled with limited resources and inexperience. On many occasions, the situation was so dire that all I could do was pray. By the end of 2019, my performance exceeded all the demands!

Today, I still don’t have the requirements needed for the job, but I’m leading a team of degree holders. Many people would say that I was lucky, but I know that I’m simply highly favoured and deeply loved by God. The blessings did not just end with me. My wife was also blessed with a job that pays higher than her expected salary.

God has given us much more than we had asked for. Throughout these experiences, God has also increased my faith. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your teachings on rest and letting Him take care of me!

Son’s Accelerated Journey To Realise His Passion

My son’s passion is to become a Tamil-language teacher. He attended an interview at a local polytechnic before his O-Level results were released and did well for it. He was eager to join the course.

Unfortunately, his results did not meet the criteria needed to enter the course. As a result, he had to complete a couple of years at a local Institute Of Technical Education (ITE) before he could go to a polytechnic.

He was very sad and cried when he received the bad news. As parents, we were too. Nevertheless, we declared Romans 8:28 over him, and believed that all things would work out for his good. I prayed and asked the Lord to lead us, and claimed His promises in this year of time and space.

A short while later, we received a call from the Ministry of Education. To our delight, our son was granted approval to enter the polytechnic and take up the full-time teaching course! We thought it would take a longer time for our son to realise his passion, but the grace of God accelerated his journey.

All glory and praise to Jesus!

A Plentiful Harvest At Work

In the first service last year, Pastor Prince declared that it shall be The Year Of The Latter Rain, and shared that it was a time of harvesting for God’s people.

From March to April, I saw the manifestation of the latter rain in my career. I was conferred Sales Representative Of The Year, an award given to me during my company’s annual meeting. The events leading up to this award made it all the more significant.

The year before, I was moved into a new team. Apart from my role as a salesperson, everything else was different—I had a different manager, teammates and clients, and products to market. Needless to say, it was a challenge.

I even made a mistake that could have cost me my job. At that time, I remembered turning to the Lord in desperation. No one else could have been there for me except for the Lord. During that trying period, I truly saw the love of God being revealed to me.

One night, I attended a church meeting, and Ruth 3:18 was shared. The verse says, “…for the man will not rest until he has concluded the matter this day.” It was what I needed to hear that night. That moment made me see my relationship with Jesus and my career in a new light.

Eventually, the incident at work was addressed and I was able to hold on to my job. The fact that I was awarded the sales representative of the year after the challenges of the previous year was truly by God’s grace!

Additionally, two weeks after winning the award, I won another even more prestigious one. The Lord’s favour is on me, placing me at the right place at the right time. Indeed, in The Year Of The Latter Rain, I have reaped such a harvest, all by His grace. Praise be to the Lord!

Blessed With A Better Job After Being Retrenched

I was retrenched in July last year. Shortly after I was retrenched, I was contacted by a company through an online platform. They commented that I was the right fit for the role they were looking to hire. When asked about my expected salary, I had quoted a figure that was lesser than what I previously drew as I did not want to price myself out of the job market.

In September, I attended service and as usual, Pastor Prince prayed over the congregation at the end. At the end of his prayer, he encouraged those who were retrenched to not settle for less.

To my delight, after attending that service in September, the company returned with an offer that was equal to my last-drawn pay. My yearly salary also included an additional month of bonus which I did not have previously. On top of that, I would also receive allowances from the company.

All glory to God!

Focusing On Jesus Brings Breakthroughs!

In the past, I never had the habit of going to church. But on Resurrection Sunday this year, a friend of mine invited me to join her for a service at New Creation Church. Since it’s the first time anyone had invited me to a service, I decided to say yes. The sermon Pastor Prince preached that day helped me to understand more about Jesus, and what He did for us.

Two weeks ago, I contacted my friend, asking to join her for service again. That Sunday, Pastor Prince preached about how Jesus never abandons us in our valley seasons, but carries us through them. The sermon resonated with me as I was going through a divorce and I had lost the passion for my job.

The sermon encouraged me to know that Jesus is always near for me and that He would restore double of what we have lost. After that service, whenever I feel lonely or fearful, I will picture Jesus being there with me.

On Friday, I received a new job offer which pays double of what I’m making now! I know that the Lord is rebuilding my life. Thank you, Pastor Prince!

Debt-free Thanks To God's Provisions

For the past five years, my family had been in debt. In one of Pastor Mark Ng’s sermons, he mentioned about letting the Holy Spirit guide us through our situations, including debt. That sermon resonated well with me, as it reminded me to rest and rely on Jesus’ finished work.

Since attending New Creation Church, I’ve caught the revelation of tithing and I tithe every month, despite my family’s debt. This year, I received a promotion and overachieved on my key performance indicators. I was also the top regional manager in my company and received a six-digit bonus.

Praise the Lord! I was able to clear off my family’s debt and have plenty left over. God has provided more than I could ask or imagine. Truly, our God is a God who multiplies the five loaves and two fish to feed many!

Thank you, Pastor Mark, for sharing the gospel and God’s love with us.

The Lord’s Provision For Wedding And Home

A year ago, my wife and I started preparing for our wedding. There were several challenges we faced. We had no savings. We wanted to hold a church wedding. However, my wife’s parents were not believers. In addition, we wanted to stay in our own home as soon as we could after the wedding, but applying for a new flat under the Build-To-Order scheme meant we had to queue and wait.

One of our prayer requests for 2019 was for the Lord to supply and cover the costs of our wedding. I believed that if the Lord had placed the desire in us to get married, then He would also supply all our needs.

Sure enough, we saw the Lord’s hand of provision in the months that followed. We were going to settle for a small, simple church ceremony, but God opened the door for us to have our wedding at a larger venue. We were not too sure about it at first as it was more costly. However, we held on to Pastor Prince’s teachings to constantly declare God’s word and trust in the Lord!

Every time when a payment was due, I’d either receive a promotion, salary increment, or increased commissions. My wife also received a promotion. These timely provisions helped with our wedding payments. We were also blessed with extra finances to attend an overseas Christian conference.

The Lord even provided my wife with a beautiful and affordable dress that fitted perfectly.

Additionally, my wife’s parents readily accepted our decision of a church wedding. We also got our home in the middle of the year under a special programme at a convenient location and were able to move in at the end of the year.

We tithe faithfully every month but we know that it is impossible to outgive God. He has blessed us with much more than we have asked for. All praise and glory to Him!

Open Door To Job Upon Graduation

When I was a design student in my final year, a graduation showcase was launched for the graduating cohort to showcase their works to potential employers. I put up my works but did not attend it myself.

On the last day of the showcase, as I was clearing up, I saw a few namecards placed on my table. I did not contact any of them, thinking that it probably meant nothing.

I then went for a vacation and during that time, I received two emails from potential employers. One of them was keen to meet me after seeing my works at the showcase and the other was a job offer from a position I had applied for earlier.

When my lecturer heard the news, he told me to be happy if I was offered a certain amount. But I believed the Lord for more. Amazingly, I was offered more than what my lecturer, or even I, could imagine.

Subsequently, I received two more offers without the need for interviews from employers who had seen my works at the graduation showcase. I was blessed with options and eventually settled on a regional role that was not normally given to someone my age.

Through this experience, the Lord showed me how He can open doors no man can shut. His grace is always superabounding!

Reigning In The Year Of The Latter Rain

After leaving a high-level position in my previous company, I started to search for jobs actively, and send out many applications. However, I hardly received any response. I was sad and disappointed, and I condemned myself for leaving my job previously.

During this time, I read many of Pastor Prince’s books to stay afloat. They included Thoughts for Let-go Living, Anchored, 100 Days of Favor and Unmerited Favor. Even so, there were times when I would feel discouraged. I had to choose between giving up hope entirely or clinging on to God’s promises. I chose the latter.

My first ray of hope came when Pastor Prince declared that 2019 was the Year Of The Latter Rain where we shall see our harvest. He also added that in Israel, their latter rain would come as early as February, but typically, it would fall during March or April.

That message caused my hope to be at an all-time high, with a confident expectation of good to happen. I camped on God’s Word by soaking myself in Pastor Prince’s books and messages, and partook of the Holy Communion daily. I also asked my friend to pray with me.

In early April, I started to expand my networking circle and almost immediately, a very senior position was made available, and within four weeks, I was offered the job!

The salary was 20 per cent higher than my last drawn pay—a 120 per cent restoration promised by God. In addition, the role was also a position of influence that came with many perks.

All glory to Jesus. Indeed, we reign in the Year Of The Latter Rain!

Living Life To The Fullest With Christ

I received the Lord Jesus when I was 11. By the time I was 13, I was water baptised and had received the baptism of the Holy Spirit. I was on fire for the Lord, so much so that my parents became worried that my studies would be affected. To cut a long story short, they cut me off from attending church towards the end of my freshman year in high school.

Back then, I believed that by not going to church, I would fall away from God and He would be angry with me. I also believed that life would be more fun without Him. So when I was 15, I turned my back on Him, and told Him that I could not live the way He wanted me to because it was too hard. But if He would still want to have me, I would return to Him in my late 30s. 

Years later, I moved from the United States to Singapore, and started attending New Creation Church regularly. By then, I was 39. Then, I remembered the prayer I made to God when I was 15 and realised that He had been patiently waiting for me. After wasting many years carrying my sins around like a ball and chain, and suffering the emptiness that comes from trying to be happy apart from God, the Lord brought me back to Him, and even made sure that I got to hear the gospel of grace preached by Pastor Prince!  

At times, I fret over the years that I had wasted from not having believed right. But as I kept feeding on good spiritual food, and positioning myself to receive from my Abba, I kept growing in grace, and I am experiencing His blessings in my life manifested more and more. And praise the Lord, God has been restoring to me all that the locusts had eaten, and I am enjoying His blessings of the latter rain.

Last year, I had my cookbook published. In April this year, I received an email with news that my book had won an award as the best cookbook in Singapore, and it was in the running for an international award. Three months later, I attended the awards ceremony in Macau and I received the top prize! All glory to the Father of glory! Praise Jesus for His amazing favour! 

Today, I am 52 years young, and I have been attending New Creation Church for over 12 years. I consider it such a privilege and honour to be part of this wonderful church. I want to thank all the pastors, especially Pastor Prince, for teaching the Word and loving us.  

Now, I have come to realise that life is infinitely more fun with God!

Blessed With A Better Job After Retrenchment

I was retrenched when I was 32. Being a mother of two young children, I was at a loss as to what to do next. I would have negative thoughts such as being unemployable and that I would never find another role that I like.

It was not easy, but my husband continually encouraged me to listen to Pastor Prince’s sermons, feed on the Word, and go to church every Sunday. Through these, my faith was renewed every day.

One of the sermons that I heard which greatly impacted me was on the book of Esther. Pastor Prince preached that even though God’s name wasn’t mentioned in the book, He was working behind the scenes all the time.

Hearing that, I knew and believed that I could trust God for favour and a breakthrough in my career.

Within a month after hearing that sermon, I received a job offer with an 80 per cent increment from the previous job! It was a miracle to me as I did not expect it at all. All glory to Him!

Conceived Despite The Negative Reports

One of my three prayer requests at the beginning of the year was to get pregnant. However, I was still breastfeeding my firstborn, and was having irregular periods. Hence, it was impossible for us to plan a conception.

In October, I bled for almost the whole month. I saw a doctor who said that because I was still breastfeeding, my hormones were going haywire, and I needed to stop breastfeeding to regulate my hormones and cycle.

When I asked about the chances of conceiving, she laughed and said that it was next to impossible. Again, she advised me to stop breastfeeding and if irregular bleeding persisted, I’d have to go on hormone replacement therapy.

I was crushed as I had wanted to breastfeed for as long as possible, and dreamt of nursing two children in tandem. Being a doctor myself, I knew that my gynaecologist was right. Nonetheless, I had to remind myself that God was sovereign and His ways are the high ways. He is above the ways of the world and He has the final say. One touch of Jesus’ cloak healed the lady with the issue of blood and so, I claimed similar supernatural healing and regulation of my cycle without having to stop breastfeeding or go on hormone replacement therapy, and believed that He would give me the desires of my heart.

I wanted to be bold about it, but my husband who attended the same consultation as me was unconvinced and told me to listen to the doctor. I surrendered the burden to Jesus. I told Him I was going to trust His healing and provision.

One day, I was blessed watching a worship service on Psalm 23 by Pastor Prince. I soaked in the Word and meditated on my Abba’s goodness and grace, believing that His goodness and mercy would hunt me down.

Later that same month, I conceived! It was a miracle! Even the doctor was surprised that I had conceived based on the blood test and scan results.

My father who is an obstetrician with over 30 years of experience was incredulous that I conceived after he read the doctor’s report. My doctor is one of the most renowned specialists in London. Her investigation findings and diagnosis were all accurate, but that same month, my God swooped in to restore my health, overanswering my prayers and surprising us with His provision.

On 24 July, my second child was born. I am grateful to be under Pastor Prince's ministry and guidance to right believing. All glory to Jesus.

Scored Distinctions For Modules And Blessed With A Good Job

I was born into a Christian family but only attended church on special occasions such as Christmas Day or Good Friday.

About one-and-a-half years ago, while I was pursuing my degree, I had a dream about Jesus. Six months later, I happened to come across a Christian song video on social media. The video was entitled "Grace". After viewing the video, my heart was overwhelmed with the goodness of the Lord, and I cried uncontrollably.

Two months after this incident, just before my final paper, I experienced a meltdown. I had expedited this degree programme from its original two years duration to 16 months. Instead of taking two modules per trimester, I had decided to take three. As such, by the end of the last trimester, I was left with only about one week to study for three modules!

During the most stressful and desperate moments, I pleaded with the Lord to help me with my preparation. By then, I was left with only about two days to prepare for my final paper. I also told the Lord that I would go to church to hear His Word after I had completed my studies.

Just a few days before Christmas, one of my classmates messaged me and invited me to attend a service at New Creation Church. She told me that there was a special performance. Initially, I was quite reluctant and did not confirm my attendance with her. 

Miraculously on Christmas Eve, when my husband and I were sending one of my close friends home, I mentioned New Creation Church and she commented that it was a good church. She also added that there was once when the chimes sounded on their own while Pastor Prince was preaching.

Instantly, I decided to attend the service on Christmas Day, and I really enjoyed the sermon preached by Pastor Prince. Since then, I have been attending New Creation Church.

The Lord Jesus has also blessed me with more than what I had asked for when my results were released in January this year. Back then, I had only prayed for a pass or a credit, but He gave me distinctions for my last three modules!

I could not believe my eyes when I saw my results! Glory to Lord Jesus!

In addition, God has also blessed me with a great job that pays well, and I am enjoying it. The staff benefits, environment and colleagues are fabulous. I truly believe that this is the job that the Lord has blessed me with as I have prayed that I would be able to find a job that I can enjoy and with a conducive environment.

Glory to You, Lord Jesus.

God Answered My Three Prayer Requests!

At the end of every year, we would usually bring our three prayer requests to the Lord as a church. In 2017, I jotted down my prayer requests for the following year on an electronic card. I had them typed out very quickly and they were: go back to church every Sunday, have a baby, and a home.

At the end of March 2018, my husband and I decided that I should stop working on Sundays. This was a big decision to make as it meant a 25 per cent pay cut, and I was worried that our finances and lifestyle would be affected. Still, we followed the peace that was in us, and trusted the Lord to provide.

Within three weeks of making that decision, the Lord had answered two of my prayers. I was happily attending church every Sunday, and I became pregnant!

However, almost immediately, I was flooded with negative thoughts on whether I was able to carry the baby to full term, and whether the baby would be healthy.

God is so good. The first Sunday after I found out that I was pregnant, the Lord gave me a vision that He had created the baby inside of me, and no evil could come near it. It may sound silly, but that made me so peaceful.

From then on, whenever I had a negative thought about my pregnancy, I would remind myself of the vision.

During my delivery, I experienced excessive bleeding. I thank God for a great husband who knew the power of the Holy Communion. We partook of the Communion three times a day. Within two days, I was out of the hospital with my baby.

Today, I am holding my healthy baby girl in my arms and waiting for the keys to our new home!

Looking back at 2018, there was never once when my husband and I had to change our lifestyle, nor were our finances affected in anyway. In fact, the Lord provided us with more than what we had lost as we continued to tithe each month. Truly, the Lord is Jehovah Jireh (the Lord who provides).

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for continuously reminding us that there is power in prayer, and to trust in our Lord Jesus Christ. All glory to God!

Son Entered School Of Choice

In November 2018, we met Pastor Alvin Kang at my husband’s baptism, and asked him to pray for our son who was taking his Primary School Leaving Examinations end of the year. Pastor Alvin prophesised that Jesus’ fingerprints would be written all over his results. We were very encouraged by the word and held on to it.

On results day, my heart sank when I saw that my son’s score was one point short of entering his desired school. That night, God reminded me that his score had double five in it. As Pastor Alvin had prophesised, Jesus’ fingerprints were indeed written all over his results. The numbers were clear to me that we would experience His double and perfect grace.

The next morning, we continued to believe that God was working behind the scenes to lower the cut-off point for the school’s admission. We submitted the school application form and trusted God.

On 19 December, the day when the school posting results were out, I woke up early and waited for the text message from the Ministry of Education. The message arrived promptly, and my son was posted to the school of his choice! Glory to God!

It turned out that his school was one of the few that had their admission cut-off scores reduced that year. It had to be God's double and perfect grace in my son's life.

Not only so, in February this year, my son received a letter to visit the student health centre to check on his spine. Before seeing the doctor, we sat down and prayed for a normal report. And that was what exactly happened.

According to the doctor, school assessments were usually accurate but this was not so in our case. After reassessing my son’s spine, she confirmed that there was nothing wrong with him!

We know that Jesus is always for us and because He is, nothing can be against us. Hallelujah!

Planted In A Kingdom Family, Growing Stronger In The Lord

For years, my hubby had resisted joining a care group as we were both busy with work, but we eventually decided to join a care group that was near our home after I was prompted through a sermon by Pastor Prince. 

Prior to the first care group session, my husband injured himself after a failed attempt to pull out a cyst from his armpit, and he was not able to lift up his arm for a few days. 

That Friday, we visited the care group and met a mother who asked us to pray for her child. So my husband stretched out his hand and prayed for her. 

We experienced a strong presence of the Lord that evening and amazingly, my husband’s arm was healed the very next day. He was able to lift up his arm, and the cyst in his armpit dropped off miraculously by itself! 

Since then, my life has never been the same. From this care group, I got to know a group of kingdom friends with whom we often have Bible study and fellowship. I realised that the more I sought the Lord and let go of my daughter’s studies, the better she performed. 

In the past, I used to feel that the message shared in church was the same every Sunday. But after joining the care group, the Holy Spirit opened my eyes to see new things in the messages. My husband, who used to have no interest in reading the Bible, is now studying Hebrew. 

There was also once when I began to worry about our finances as the money in my Central Provident Fund was depleting, and we would have to fork out more cash every month to pay for our housing loan.   

However, my husband told me to rest in Jesus, and my care group members also encouraged me to look to Jesus for His supply. 

Subsequently, my husband got a new job. By industry standards, the highest increment one could get is 20 per cent. But because of God’s favour, my husband got an increment of 35 per cent. On top of that, the company even gave him a five-figure signing bonus. That eased my worry about our housing loan. 

I am so thankful for the wonderful kingdom family God has blessed me with and I am blessed to be under an awesome care group leader who always points us back to Jesus. I have grown so much in one year versus attending church on our own for more than a decade. To God be the glory!

Foetus’ heartbeat detected again after prayers and partaking of the Holy Communion

My family and I had always wanted another child. But as the time went by, I gave up because I was already past 40, and it is not easy for women my age to conceive in the natural.

One day, my younger daughter asked me when I would have another child. So I told her to pray, and that God would give us one. That night, I couldn’t sleep. I did a pregnancy test and realised that I was pregnant!

However, during the first check-up with the gynaecologist, we were told that the foetus had no heartbeat and that it was common for women of my age to produce eggs that were not as healthy as younger mothers. Furthermore, it would not be my first time losing a child as I have had two miscarriages before.

We were told to wait for another week to see if the foetus had any heartbeat. If not, I should have a procedure to remove it.

By then, I had been listening to and translating Pastor Prince’s messages for four-and-a-half years. Besides being blessed by his preaching on the grace of God, I was also deeply impacted by his teachings on the Holy Communion. Though I have been a Christian almost all my life, I had never known the true meaning of the Communion until I heard Pastor Prince’s teachings.

During the following week, we prayed, partook of the Holy Communion, and believed God for a miracle.

At the next check-up, the foetus still had no heartbeat and I was told to make an appointment for the procedure. I hesitated because I had not worked out our daughters’ childcare arrangements with my husband. But the gynaecologist thought it was because I was too heartbroken and said I could wait for another week before going for the procedure.

During this time, we prayed with the girls, and told them that we would still get to see the baby in heaven even if he was not born. I continued to pray for peace in my heart and listened to Pastor Prince’s messages.

I went for a third check-up and this time, there was a heartbeat! Even the doctor was surprised. By that time, I should have been eight weeks pregnant, but the doctor said that my baby was the size of a six-week-old foetus. I believe it was because the baby was revived and started to grow again when we started to partake of the Communion. Our miracle baby boy was born healthy and happy. God is great and faithful!

Life Transformed After Learning About Jesus Through Pastor Prince’s Resources

A few years ago, I came to know about New Creation Church and Pastor Prince because our local TV stations would air his broadcast programmes. Every time I listened to Pastor Prince, I would experience joy and an unusual peace.  

I thought I had fully understood what Pastor Prince was sharing until around April 2018. At that time, I was recovering from an abusive relationship that had left me a single mother. I went through a whole year of tears and heartache.

I began watching Pastor Prince’s sermons whenever I had some free time. One day, I was reading his book Unmerited Favor and came to a section where he mentioned the movie The Passion Of The Christ, and I was led to check out the movie.

As I watched the scene of Jesus being whipped, I realised that I didn’t really know Him. I then started reading Pastor Prince’s book, Destined To Reign. And over the next three days, I saw Jesus Christ in His true majesty revealed in the pages of the book. All of a sudden, I knew Him and I fell in love with Him.  

As I continued reading the book, the Holy Spirit began showing me things from the Bible that I had never seen before. The scales fell off my eyes and I even got healed of a breathing problem and severe migraines that I had had for 14 years! In addition, that same week, I met a man who turned out to be a Godsend. He accepted me and my daughter, and loves us so much. He is also a prayer warrior, and we would read extracts of Destined To Reign together. Glory be to God, our wedding is scheduled for December 2019!

The Holy Spirit also led me to a fellowship group where I get to share about Jesus, and see lives tremendously transformed as a result. I am so grateful to God for you, Pastor Prince. Thank you for your amazing books and sermons!

Wedding Provided For And Set Free From Smoking

I picked up smoking when I started my first job at 14 years of age. My smoking habit got really bad, and I was smoking three packets of cigarettes a day. 

As I was working long hours, smoking seemed to be a time of rest for me. Later, I went through a series of retrenchments and change of jobs. Finally, I decided to be self-employed. 

Subsequently, I met my wife. I did not have enough money to get married then as I was in debt and did not have a regular income. Eventually, I went back to full-time employment to save up for our marriage. 

We were not believers at that time. Once, we attended a church and felt judged after being told that the church elders would assess us to see if we were fit for baptism. 

One day, a friend invited us to New Creation Church at Marina Bay Sands Ballrooms. Throughout the worship and sermon, tears kept flowing down my face. I was touched. 

Both my wife and I decided that this is the church for us. We got baptised in 2014, and in 2016, after dating for six years, we got married. By God’s grace, we got great deals for our banquet and wedding packages. With the little that we had, God made it possible. 

Then, just before Christmas in 2017, my wife asked me if I was willing to quit smoking for her. I told her that I would try again—this time with God. I asked God to give me the strength to stop smoking and take away my memory of smoking. 

I also kept declaring that I am the righteousness of God in Christ. I have been free from smoking for almost a year now. Praise God. 

I would like to thank Pastor Prince for preaching the true gospel which has changed my life, and I am leaning more and more on God every day, knowing that I can't do anything without Him.

God Answered Prayer For New Job

Around August 2018, Pastor Prince prayed for people who had lost their jobs and even encouraged them not to worry. 

I was one of those who had lost their jobs. Previously, I was a senior technical manager in a US-based company where I had been working for 19 years, and served as one of the pioneers who set up the Asia operations. Salary-wise, it was very good. But during the company’s restructuring exercise, I was asked to go, and I had been out of job since May 2018. 

I sent out almost 300 applications but only four called me up for an interview, and none were successful. 

I was 50 years old, and did not have a degree. It was hard for me to get a job even if I was mentally prepared to downgrade my position, and slash my pay by half. 

My wife had been very supportive. We often prayed together, seeking God to intervene. After each failed interview, I would tell myself that God has a better plan for me, and I just needed to keep my faith in Him. 

My wife and I continued to pray, and God finally answered our prayers. Through the recommendation of a friend, I successfully got a job with a US-based company, and started working with them since the end of September 2018. 

My salary is now higher than before, and I have also been given stock options as part of the deal. Till now, I still believe that this is a miracle from God.

Marriage And Motherhood In My 40s

I came to New Creation Church 16 years ago. Its messages, especially those that taught me about God’s love for me, really helped me. I began to see God’s blessings in my life. However, while my career was on an upward trajectory, nothing seemed to be happening on the life partner front. Back then, whenever Pastor Prince asked us to bring our prayer requests to the Lord, “life partner” would always be among my top three requests!

Time went on and before I knew it, I was hitting 40. It is not easy when you have a prayer that has not been unanswered for a long time. However, in my heart, I believed that God had a good plan for me and would bring it to pass. Our circumstances may not always line up with the Word of God, but I believe it is precisely then that we need to hold on and trust that He who promised is faithful. And for those who desire it, we have to believe that God wants to see us blessed and married even more than we want it.

In 2013, I was introduced to Sam. At first, I really didn’t think that he was the one. I gave him a full inquisition on "law versus grace". He couldn’t answer any of the doctrinal challenges I threw at him!  It didn’t appear that he was the partner that God was giving me.  As he wasn’t living in Singapore at that time, I thought it would be the right thing to tell him early that we should just remain as friends.

We continued to hang out and I got to know him better. I realised he loved the Lord and was a kind man, but I was still unsure if we were suitable. So I sought godly counsel. We even met up with one of our pastors. That session made me feel loved. Even Sam was surprised that the church cared for each member like they were family.

Eventually, I felt ready to take a step of faith and take our relationship to a next level. In 2015, Sam and I were married. But even then, we had to continue to trust God in the area of having children as I had already crossed 40.

But God was faithful. We had His promises to hold on to in the Bible and I knew that my age wasn’t a barrier for Him. The world can say a lot of things, and what we hear and read can put fear in our hearts, but it's what God says that really matters.

On 22 May 2017, our daughter was born. She has brought so much joy into our lives, and we are grateful to God for blessing us with her.

Provided With A Full-Time Job

For the past year, I had been struggling to get a full-time job. I sent out multiple résumés, but to no avail. 

When a contract job offer came along, I decided to take it up. However, during the second week of work, my role was tasked to another team and I was left to fill the gaps with whatever projects that came along. I felt very upset about it, and that my manager was treating me very badly. 

I kept involving God in the mundane things I did, and even prayed over small matters such as not having too many interactions with my manager. 

Somehow, each day would turn out the way I wanted, and this encouraged me to continue to pray and depend on the Lord even more. During this period, I decided to pick up on my job search. 

A few days later, I received a call from a company which thought that I was more suitable for another role. I readily agreed to go for the interview since invitations did not come that often. 

The interview was the most informal one I had attended that year. I decided to hold it loosely, and felt relaxed as compared to other interviews. 

I asked my close friends to pray with me, and for God to open the door wide if the job was for me. 

The next day, I received a phone call from the company saying that I had been offered the job! I was delighted that they had called me up so soon instead after two weeks, which was what they had mentioned during the interview. 

Against all odds, God provided for me in His time so beautifully. My new workplace is much nearer to my home and the working environment is one that I enjoy. I thought this was a huge miracle because it came at the end of the year when jobs are scarce. Praise Jesus!

Offered A Better Job Despite Having No Experience

I had been working in a highly stressful, client-facing role which required me to work for long hours. This caused me to develop several symptoms such as heart palpitations. I constantly prayed for a new job. 

However, the job that I was in is highly specialised, making it hard for me to make a switch without taking a big pay cut, or starting afresh from a junior position. 

Then, I was offered a job in another company which was much bigger. Though the role was similar, I was promised that there would be job rotations. 

However, after I accepted the offer, I was placed in the same area of work which was stressful and had long working hours. 

After my second year there, I wanted a change in career. However, time after time, I was unable to find anything that I was interested in. 

Then, I came across two praise reports and bookmarked them on my phone. I would read them over and over again, and confess God’s promises over myself.

One day, a friend who worked as a headhunter asked me if I wanted to try a contract job which I had no experience in. 

Furthermore, the job title indicated that I would be taking a step down in my career. After my wife and I prayed about it, I felt the peace to take up the role.

Praise God, instead of a contract position which was the original intent of the employer, I was offered a permanent position. Not only was my position not lowered, I also did not have to take a pay cut. In fact, I was offered a double digit pay rise! 

I have been in the role for nearly a year now. During the recent performance appraisal, I was rated as a high performer. 

All glory to Jesus! Thank you, Pastor Prince, for continually preaching the gospel and showing us that we are the righteousness of God in Christ.

Delivered From Depression And Shame, Now Married And Blessed

I was raised as a Christian and had accepted Christ in 1985. The many Christian churches I went to always taught a mixture of law and grace, and I was a lukewarm Christian. My dad was a womaniser and I grew up seeing how my mum suffered as a result. This and the lack of a father’s love made me believe wrongly and accept a man whom I thought was giving me the right kind of love. 

I lived in with him for about six years in a relationship full of betrayal, deceit and lies. We finally ended our relationship with so much pain, condemnation and shame in me. I thought that God was mad at me for all the sins that I had committed since I was a kid, and thought that they were all recorded in the Book of Life. When judgement comes, I thought I wouldn’t be fit for heaven. 

Soon after my break-up, I came to Singapore to work. At that time, I was full of negative emotions—pain, depression, anger, shame, fear, condemnation and anxieties. I also had thoughts of suicide, and prayed that God would lead me to a church. I started attending New Creation Church in December 2004. 

At first, I wondered: “Why is this pastor always talking about God’s goodness? What about God’s wrath and judgement?” But I felt prompted to just listen, and I kept attending the services and immersing myself in Pastor Prince’s messages—in the morning, on my way to and from work, and when I got home. 

I finally realised how great the gospel of grace is and how much Pastor Prince was unveiling the beauty of our Lord Jesus Christ. It made me want to always attend church services and best of all, it made me realise how much Jesus loves me. I started serving in church in 2009. God also answered my prayer, according to my heart’s desire, for a believing husband.

In the later part of 2010, I left for the United States with my husband and brought along my entire collection of Pastor Prince’s message CDs. I watch his television broadcast every day and I’m so thankful that it’s available here. I have also been sharing about God’s grace at work and giving out Pastor Prince’s books and CDs to the people around me. 

Looking back, my life has been transformed since 2004. I was a miserable person with self-pity and self-condemnation but now I know God’s love. Looking to Jesus gives me peace and the life He wants me to have. Though there are many challenges, our wonderful Jesus gives me strength each day.

Thank you so very much, Pastor Prince, for spreading the gospel of grace!

Experiencing God’s Favour And Supply

In February 2018, just before Chinese New Year, my husband was informed that he would be made redundant by his company. He was given a month’s notice.

At that time, we had just moved into our new house and were financially stretched. We were devastated and shattered. I told some of my Christian friends, yearning for their prayers because we really did not know what to do! 

My good friend, who had been passing me Pastor Prince's sermon CDs, came to visit us over Chinese New Year with her family. She passed us more CDs, prayed for us and invited us to attend New Creation Church. 

We started attending New Creation Church and listening to Pastor Prince’s sermon CDs. The more we listened, the more we believed that God is our good heavenly Father who is ever ready to bless us. We also learnt that it was never His plan to take things away from us in order to teach us a lesson.

After Chinese New Year, my husband's employer informed him that he would be given two months’ notice instead. It was truly God’s blessing.

Soon after, his business contact offered him a position but I did not feel the peace for him to accept the role. Then, in March, another company approached him and offered him a position with a similar pay package. All these happened before his two months’ notice period was up!

He accepted the second offer, but we continued to pray for another job opening which eventually come through a referral by a friend.

The amazing part was, although we have heard stories of graduates who had not been able to get a job after being made redundant, my husband, who is not even a graduate, received two job offers before his notice period was up. In fact, the minimum requirement for the position which he had secured was a university degree.

In addition, we had also been trying to rent out my parent's property to pay off some of our monthly home loan instalments. But my mum is very particular when it comes to selecting a tenant. According to our agent, her criteria would eliminate 60 per cent of the rental population. However, within a month, we managed to rent the property out at a rate that was higher than expected!

We truly see God's supply in every situation. Though there are many voices of doubt about the economy and our future, we know that we can simply put our trust in God believing that He has plans to prosper us and not to harm us. He is a loving Father! All praise to Him!

Blessed With Job Offer That Was Beyond Her Imagination

For the last two years, I had been heavily oppressed in a company which was overly political. On top of that, they owed me four months of commission. Every day, I would drag my feet to work for fear that I could not survive if I were to leave the company because of my educational level and age. I felt as though I was going into depression. One day, I decided to get out of that place. 

A few months back, I started sending out résumés, but there were no responses. Feeling sad, I prayed to God and asked Him to open a door for me and give me another job if the company I was in wasn’t where I should be. I also asked God to promote me, and give me a better working environment and salary package.

Shortly after that, a human resources (HR) executive from a company approached me and told me that they were looking for a sales executive. As I was desperate to get out of the company I was in, I told her that I was keen.

So she sent me the job description, and I saw the first line read “Bachelor’s Degree Holder”. I sighed as my highest education level is only GCE O Levels. However, I was still asked to send my résumé over.

Two days later, I got a call from the company asking me to go for an interview, and the position I was interviewing for was Sales Manager.

Though puzzled, I prayed for God’s unmerited favour and guidance on what to say. My care group leader and members also prayed for me.

When I went for the interview, I really liked the company’s structure and system, and wanted to get the job badly.

But after the 2nd round of interview, I felt that I didn’t perform well enough and was very disappointed with myself. I also started to fear when I was told that the managing director would be interviewing other candidates.

A week passed with no news, and I grew depressed. But I continued to pray for God’s unmerited favour every day.

I also boldly declared, “Heavenly Father, I believe and trust that You have opened this door for me, and no man can shut it. Jesus has done a perfect work at the cross and He has paid the full price for me to receive this job. This job is mine and I claim it in Jesus’ name. Amen.”

Another week went by and I received a message from the HR executive saying that they would update me of the outcome as soon as they were done seeing other candidates.

I felt relieved that there was still hope. In my heart, I had a positive feeling that God was doing something for me.

In the following week, the HR executive asked me for names to conduct reference checks, one of which must be an ex-employer. So I asked God for favour with my ex-boss whom I had not contacted for years. And when I texted him to be a reference as a favour to me, he replied saying that he was more than willing to do so.

A few days later, I received a call from the HR executive saying that they were offering me the position of a senior sales manager and it was a regional role!

I was in shock for a few seconds because I had started off interviewing for a sales executive position and now, they were offering me a senior sales manager post with a better remuneration package.

Not only did God restore to me what I had lost, He answered my prayers for a promotion, a higher package and a better working environment. Hallelujah!

Promoted Effortlessly

I have been working for seven years and have been through many setbacks in my career due to a combination of closed doors and the lack of a formal degree. 

Hence, for the past six years, I had been stuck as an assistant manager in the communications field. 

In 2016, one of my three prayer requests was to be promoted to a position of influence. In the natural, I did not know how it could happen. 

During the year, I took up a part-time degree course in an attempt to improve my chances for promotion. I listened to the Word and encouraged myself with Pastor Prince's teaching on possessing my possessions. Though I experienced much favour in my career, my desire to get a promotion was still not fulfilled.

In the last week of 2016, Pastor Prince led us in prayer over our three prayer requests for 2017. I made the same prayer to be promoted to a position of influence. I even set a faith goal for my salary which, at that time, seemed ridiculous to me. 

But when God blesses, He does so in ways we dare not even hope for.

The following day, I headed back into the office and was suddenly called into a meeting with the general manager and director of sales of a new hotel that was opening up. 

In that informal interview, there was no striving, no need to justify my works or show proof of my work performance. It seemed as though God had opened all the doors and lined up all the important people to speak on my behalf even before I uttered a single word.

Less than five minutes into the conversation, they immediately offered me the position of marketing communications manager. I was also offered a 37 per cent pay increment even though it was an internal transfer and promotion. 

Truly, God Himself fights our battles for us even when we don't see it happening. And what my human mind considered ridiculous to achieve, God made it happen. What a beautiful way it was for me to end 2016 by possessing my possessions and stepping into 2017 with a bounce of jubilee in my steps!

God Loves And Provides

My parents were typical Asians who never gave words of affirmation but criticisms that eroded my self-worth. I grew up bitter, angry and selfish, convinced that God was biased against me and did not truly love me. I thought that He had a little book of "favourites" which did not have my name in it. 

To make matters worse, I attended a church that convinced me that I wasn't praying, fasting and serving enough to earn my blessings. I thought that maybe my parents were right after all and I was an absolute "good-for-nothing". I left church and believed that God was too busy blessing His “favourites” to take note of me.  

In a bid to help myself, I enrolled in a law degree course. There, I met a girl who invited me to New Creation Church. When I first attended the service, I wondered if I had made another mistake by coming to this church. But when Pastor Prince started preaching about Jesus, I knew in my heart that this was different. 

Week after week, I returned with the girl to listen to Pastor Prince unveil Jesus and the darkness in my heart melted away in the presence of Him who loves me with such a passion. 

Later, I married the girl and experienced blessings in my career. I managed to stay on in my job then for more than five years when previously, I could never hold down a job for more than a year and a half. 

For the longest time, I had been applying for internal transfers, but nothing came to fruition. 

One day, I applied for an internal position which I was not qualified for. Miraculously, I passed the interviews and landed the role! My new manager even told me that I was paid too little for someone of my experience. True enough, at the first chance, he got me an increment of 20 per cent! This was very timely as my first child was born that year. It was 2015, The Year Of His Restoration for our church.

However, towards the end of 2015, I was told that I would be made redundant. The news stirred up panic and anxiety in my heart but the Lord came through for me again. Within a week from my last day, I was offered a job beyond my wildest dreams. It was an area I wanted to be in, and my new company was probably the biggest in the United States. The team was also filled with amazing people and I worked well with my new boss. I even received a pay rise of 23 per cent.

All in all, I experienced a pay increase of 47 per cent in 2015, and even got a generous severance package from my former company which amounted to nearly a full year’s wage. 

I am thankful to God for all that He has done in my life, the one whom Jesus loves. All glory to Him!

A Job That Came Right On Time

In August 2016, at the age of 52, I was retrenched from a senior position. Despite sending out more than 100 job applications, I had no job offers. I tried to humble myself during the interviews but I could never get beyond the second round. 

I was discouraged and downcast. After two months, I decided to be a taxi driver while waiting for a job offer, and this continued for one-and-a-half years. 

As a driver, I had no contribution to my central provident fund (CPF) account which I relied heavily upon to pay my monthly housing loan. As of 31 March 2017, I still owed a six-figure sum and I became extremely stressed out seeing my CPF account dwindle every month knowing that all my contributions would be wiped out after a year. 

Thoughts of not being able to pay for the housing loan and being pursued by the bank for payment gave me many sleepless nights. The fear was very real and tormenting. 

However, every time I got up, I would surrender the nightmares and my fear to God. I would also ask Him to help me get back to sleep as I needed the energy to drive the following day. 

This went on for months and during Christmas, I told God that I could not take it any longer. I even said that I would rather die than face a mountain of debts and not be able to feed my family. 

Miraculously, during the first week of 2018, I received a call from a government agency inviting me to interview for an IT sales manager position. I was stunned as I was not tech-savvy at all. 

Nonetheless, I went for the interview and realised that there were another 100 applicants for the job. My hopes were shattered. I knew that I had no chance at all. 

True enough, I did not even clear the first interview. Depressed, I went home and pleaded with God for help. Two weeks later, I received a call from the agency who told me that the IT firm was conducting a career fair, and I was encouraged to attend.

I went and again, I failed the interview. I was extremely depressed but I tried to hide my feelings from my family. 

Even when I thought that all hope was gone, God did not give up on me. A few days later, the same agency called me to inform me that they had somehow “pushed” my application to the IT company for consideration. From then, I went for four more interviews over a span of three months. Not a day passed by without fear and anxiety. 

My sleepless nights increased as I knew that my CPF account would be emptied soon. By March 2018, my CPF account was left with around $34. At the same time, I was asked to pay $871 for an insurance policy through CPF. That completely wiped out my CPF account and I had to top up the balance in cash. 

By then, I was at a loss. I did not know how to pay for my housing loan in April, so I knelt and cried out to God for help. 

Amazingly, I received a call from the IT company asking me to go for another round of interview. On 22 March 2018, they offered me the job! Praise God!

Later, I found out that I was the only applicant who was selected to fill the position of sales manager amongst the many applicants. 

On my first day of work, I received another shock when the Human Resource manager asked me to submit original copies of my degree certificates. When I told her that I was not a graduate, she was completely taken aback and could not believe how I managed to get the job. 

Till today, I am still amazed I got the job with no IT knowledge and experience. All I can say is that without God, I would have never gotten this job. His timing is perfect and He never fails.

Favour After Favour In Job Search

Last year, before I graduated with a diploma, my father, knowing that I planned to take up a Bachelor Degree, broke the news that he would not be able to support me in my further studies. Devastated as I was, I believed that when a window closes, my Abba Father will open doors, gates and even roofs for me.

Soon enough, I came to realise that the field I was studying in wasn’t exactly my passion. At that time, as I was finishing my studies, my lecturer emailed me about an opening for a part-time position at a media pop-up store because she knew that I loved writing. She told me it could be an interesting experience as the pop-up store had an editorial team working there. I decided to take it up and was accepted for the job.

While working at the store, I observed their daily operations and got to know the team. I was sure this was what I wanted but I told Jesus I didn’t have the courage to request for an internship because I wasn’t even studying in a related field. Miraculously, a few days after that, the team’s marketing manager came over to my desk during lunch and we had a chat. Out of nowhere, she suddenly asked me if I would be interested for an editorial internship! I was dumbfounded and amazed that God had answered my prayer, and I said yes.

After an interview and a writing test, I was accepted for the internship. What started as a three-month internship grew into eight months. I loved my job and the company, so I prayed again to Abba for a full-time position in the company. However, I had to fly home to Indonesia as my parents could not support me financially anymore. When the Editor I worked under learnt that I was leaving, she asked if I would be interested to do freelance work for them from home. Again, I was amazed that my God had blessed me with so much favour. I accepted the offer and worked from Indonesia while I spent time with my family.

After a few months, I felt an urge in my heart to stop working from home. I wanted to work in a team and learn more, as a dream to start my own company in the future was planted in my heart. So I asked the Editor-in-Chief of my company if they had a full-time position in Singapore but he said the office’s headcount was limited at that time. I still had faith that God had other plans for me.

I decided to fly back to Singapore and continue my job search here. My parents told me they could only support me financially for two months. I told them it was more than enough because I knew my God had secured the perfect position with a more-than-enough salary for me.

During my first week back in Singapore in March 2017, Pastor Edwin Lim led the Holy Communion prayer during a Sunday service I attended, and one of the first things he said was about success in a job search and a job interview! I felt God’s loving reassurance for me, and all my worries vanished immediately.

Two weeks later, my former Editor-in-Chief suddenly texted me about a job opening in one of his acquaintance’s company. He told me he was devastated that he had to refer me to a competitor because he wanted me to join his company once the headcount opened up, but he knew I needed a job. I was deeply touched and grateful that God had led him to think of me and refer me to a competitor!

I applied for the job, attended an interview and went through a few writing tests. While waiting for the outcome, I knew in my heart that I would be accepted because God had led me to this, so I prayed to Him for a salary enough to support myself independently.

A week later, my acceptance email arrived, and the salary offer way exceeded my expectations! Praise Jesus! He doesn’t bless us with “just enough” — that’s not our God in heaven, He blesses with more than enough so that we could bless others around us.

Looking back, it was favour after favour — from my lecturer to my former Editor-in-Chief. I knew I had favour with them not because of who I am or because of my abilities. It was all God. Just like Joseph in the Bible, I started with nothing but I am successful because the Lord is with me. With no qualifications, I ended up with a job that I am passionate about with substantial salary. I am expectant and look forward to the better days that are ahead of me, knowing that my Abba Father is with me every step of the way.

Thank You, Jesus! And thank you, Pastor Prince and New Creation Church!

Restful Placement In A New And More Suitable Role

I had been trusting God to deliver me from my workplace in the oil and gas industry where I had endured an environment that was judgemental and unforgiving for three years.

In addition, the job market had been unstable for many years, and as oil prices continued to plummet and reach unstable lows, work conditions in the oil and gas industry became even more sombre.

I had anticipated being shown the door in the company where I had served for almost 14 years. But I still felt it when my manager finally advised that I would be given a notice of redundancy by July 2017 if I were unable to secure another role in the company.

Strangely, the negative feelings did not last for long. Through daily devotions, Pastor Prince’s sermons and even messages from my fellow sisters and brothers in Christ, Jesus continued to remind me that I can rest even in my circumstances for He holds my future. So I truly rested and was not in a hurry to look for my next permanent role in the company.

It is so true that when we rest, God goes to work! In fact, my new job came “looking” for me in February, and within five weeks, I was offered a role by the hiring manager who was based in London and whom I had never met.

We only had one interview over the phone and he called me back the following week to offer me the role! It would take me back to a business division that I had always been passionate about and had a decade’s worth of experience in. My new responsibilities would also be in an area that I have a good aptitude for. Truly amazing grace!

My parents, husband and children were overjoyed with this blessing. And I am eternally grateful that I have a God who knows me inside out and always hears my cries of despair, no matter how small my problem.

I love You, Jesus!

Blessed With A Better-Paying Job In The Year Of Jubilee

In mid-2016, I found myself under tremendous work stress after I had a change of manager. My office became a place where one-upmanship was rewarded — even if it meant throwing others under the bus.

I had to work long hours as my new manager had little tolerance for slow delivery and mistakes. I felt lonely as my colleagues whom I used to confide in were telling tales about each other. For self-preservation, I often found myself behaving like them and this pained me a lot.

I also felt very insecure when I saw my team members being asked to leave without any forewarning. Every day, I would pray for God's favour and protection.

In April 2017, I was reading Pastor Prince’s Daily Devotional on Luke 4:18–19 and I felt that God was speaking to me. The words “to set the oppressed free, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favour” resonated within me. It also confirmed what God showed me at the start of 2017 from Hebrews 13:5 which was to keep my life free from the love of money and be content with what I had.

One of the things that had been holding me back from leaving the company was the fact that I am in my early 50s and my job had been paying me well.

Two weeks after Resurrection Sunday, I finally decided to resign without a job and trusted the Lord for provision. That was the first time since my graduation that I resigned without securing another job.

I knew that I was at a disadvantage given my age, the high unemployment rate and more. But I decided to trust the Lord for His provision and if needed, I would just retire early.

To cut a long story short, God provided me with a job even before I finished my one month’s notice! It was a miracle as I had simply applied for a job via an online portal which already had at least 600 applicants.

I went through seven rounds of tough interviews but I kept confessing what I had learnt from Pastor Prince about God’s superabounding grace and that the battle belongs to the Lord. 

Now, I am enjoying my work in a top-tier multinational technology corporation and have a great manager. I even got a salary increment!

The year 2017 was indeed the year of Jubilee where the Lord showed me His grace and unfailing love!

Got A Higher Paying Job

In late 2015, I resigned from the company where I had been working for six years after the Chief Executive Officer said that there might be a change in the company’s direction. I was very sad to make that decision because I really loved what I was doing and the Lord had caused me to perform exceptionally well and had given me good pay increments over the years.

It seemed like a risky decision to leave the company without a job, but I sensed that I should take a break after working so hard for such a long time. Shortly after I left, a former client invited me to join her company as the Chief Of Operations.

During the one-year contract, I did not feel that it was the right job for me. Furthermore, I took a pay cut, so I knew that I wouldn’t be renewing my contract when it was going to end in January 2017. However, my head told me that I should secure a new job before I discontinued the contract.

I started praying towards the end of 2016. In late December, I received a call from a headhunter I knew a few years back, and went through the first interview with a potential employer’s human resource director in Asia.

It was January 2017, but I still hadn’t hear from the potential employer and my contract was about to end. Somehow I had a peace in my heart that Daddy God would take care of me and He had promised that He would never leave me nor forsake me.

I eventually discontinued my contract in January. In February, my time was spent almost entirely on listening to Pastor Prince’s sermons. I kept meditating and feeding on the Word, and declaring verses about my righteousness in Christ. I happened to be in sync with the theme of the year — rest, listen to His Word and flow with the Spirit.

The second interview came two months after the first! As I prepared for the interview, I prayed for wisdom and told God that I only wanted to receive His blessings by grace and not by my own performance.

The interview went well and I was very hopeful. But after a month with no response, I felt that I was left alone to feed myself, with a housing loan to pay for, parents to support and insurance premiums to pay. I felt so burdened with these responsibilities.

But I felt better after a sister in church prayed for me. She said that Jesus wanted to take the heavy burden off my shoulders and that He wanted my permission to do so. Of course, I said yes.

I felt oddly light after giving consent to the Lord. Though doubts would come, I continued to feed on the Word and declared Jesus’ finished work on the cross.

A day before my birthday in March 2017, the headhunter called and told me to provide references and take a test. I completed their requests the next day, on my birthday. The day after, I received the job offer.

The job profile is similar to the one at the company I had enjoyed working for six years, but this time, the salary was more than double of what I was drawing then. This is my dream come true, my Jubilee.

I looked back at my three prayer requests for 2017 and realised that God has answered my first request specifically — to have a higher position and a salary that more than double that of the previous job. I am extremely grateful that the Lord has restored the position that I lost and has given me a remuneration that is far above what I can ask, think or imagine. Praise Jesus!

Blessed with a Better Job

In 2014, my company changed hands and I had a new job scope which I did not enjoy. Though the new company sounded really promising, it turned out to be a great disappointment.

I realised that the job prospects shared during my interview were not realised. In summary, I had a pay cut and went through office politics that almost caused me to quit.

However, due to the slowing economy, I was unable to land a new job for two years. During this time, I worked long hours, often up to 10pm, and even worked on weekends. I had little support from my reporting officer, and was given bad reviews that resulted in me not having my desired pay increment. I also received the minimum bonus in the entire company during the first year. By the second year, I received no pay increment and no bonus. On top of that, I was given a warning letter.

I felt very mistreated and abused. At that time, I was head hunted by a manpower agency and I went for the interview although I wasn’t very keen on the job offer as it was a one–year contract.

However, the interview went well and I decided to take the risk and try it out. It has been about two months since I joined, and I enjoy my current job.

I got a four–figure pay increment and my working hours are much shorter. I also get to learn new things, and have understanding reporting officers. My colleagues are friendly and the company culture suits me. The company also works on a similar platform which made me believe that my previous job was a training ground to prepare me for this.

I wish to thank God for all that I am enjoying now. Indeed, He has compensated for what I was robbed of previously.

Possessing Family and Career Blessings

The year 2016 has indeed been a year where my husband and I possessed our possessions!

We had been believing God for the salvation of our parents for a number of years now. We were glad when both our mothers agreed to come to the Mid-Autumn Celebration service in September this year. My mother-in-law received Christ as her Saviour on the day itself while my mother was moved and has begun attending church.

We have also been believing God for a child for a year without success. I had been diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome in my teenage years and never had regular menstruations. This year, on my birthday, when I happened to use a pregnancy test kit, it was good news! I had done this test many times before when my period was late but it had never been positive. Praise God for a wonderful birthday gift! We are now in our second trimester and are believing God for a champion baby.

I had also been praying for a number of years for a stable job that would allow me to grow and maximise my potential. In the middle of this year, I received two excellent job offers from reputable companies, and had the luxury of choosing between them. I am now flourishing in a new workplace which happens to be pro-family, and have colleagues who care for me. All glory to Jesus!

Double Restoration and Provision

Last year, in August 2015, we found out my wife Berinda was pregnant. However, the gynaecologist shared that the fetal development after eight weeks did not look good and was unusually slow. There was a 4mm cell with no heartbeat. Berinda also experienced bleeding throughout the pregnancy. During our visit to the gynaecologist on 30 August 2015, we were told that Berinda had a miscarriage.

We were devastated by the news, but our leaders in church ministered to us, prayed with us for God’s restoration and reminded us to have a good opinion of Him.

In September 2015, Pastor Prince prayed at the end of a service saying, “This time next year, you’ll be holding your miracle baby.” Berinda and I just held each other’s hands and said “Amen”. Our friends who knew about the miscarriage also texted us excitedly to stand in faith with us.

On 18 December 2015, Berinda found out she was pregnant. And on 6 February 2016, at our visit to the gynaecologist, we found out we were expecting twins! We knew in our hearts that it was God who had restored to us! Last year, the theme for our church was The Year of His Restoration. We were stunned and in awe by the double restoration even before the year ended!

We also want to share the style in which God give His good gifts. Berinda’s desire was to have natural childbirth for the twins. She started to lay hold of God’s Word and all His promises concerning childbirth. Her favourite verses were “Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us (for it is written, ‘Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree’)” (Galatians 3:13) and “And my God shall supply all your need according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 4:19)

Our gynaecologist highly recommended a C-section because in many cases, even after the first twin is born via natural birth, the other twin might not be in the correct position and there would be a need to undergo an emergency C-section. Berinda and I discussed the matter, and for the safety of the twins, decided to fix a date for the C-section.

In June 2016, Pastor K E Mathews came up to congratulate us and he encouraged us to believe God for natural birth if that was our heart’s desire. This ignited Berinda’s faith to believe again.

On 23 July 2016, one month before the due date, Berinda’s water bag burst. Yet, her heart was at rest, and she even took time to shower and put on make-up before we went to the hospital. At the hospital, she delivered both babies quickly and naturally in less than an hour. It was a supernatural childbirth. The doctors were stunned by the speed of the delivery, and the fact that both twins were in the correct position.

God knew we were concerned about finances for the hospital bill, but our final cash outlay after government subsidies and Medisave deduction came up to over $300 when we were expecting to pay a four-figure sum!

From the restoration of babies, to the safe and natural delivery of the children, to the finances for the hospital bill, God truly did it all for us! Thank You Jesus for these amazing blessings.

Open Door to a Better-Paying Job

At the end of December 2012, I was at the peak of my career. I was earning a substantial amount and held a critical position in my company. My customers liked me very much and I had influence over hundreds of employees all over Asia.

However, just when I thought I was at my best days, I felt God telling me that He would shut the door and open a new one for me. I was baffled as I was very comfortable where I was.

One week before the end of March 2013, my boss told me that I had to leave due to a global reorganisation. I was given only one month’s notice without any compensation.

This sudden news, did not catch me by surprise because God had prepared me for a closed door. Hence, even though I had no job offer, I wasn’t worried or fearful. Deep in my heart, I knew God would open a new door.

I didn’t understand God’s plan for me, but I had to trust Him. I did not know when I would get a new job and if I had enough to provide for my son who was in university. However, throughout the period, God gave me His peace and kept me calm.

After my last day with the company, I began looking for job openings. Though I didn’t see any job that matched my area of profession, God’s peace was with me. Somehow, I knew that God had a good plan for me.

After two weeks of job search, my ex-customer’s regional manager called me. He asked if I was interested to take on a regional position in their company. This was very similar to what I did in past. Suddenly, I saw God’s plan for me!

In less than four weeks, I started my new job! This time round, I no longer had to work long hours but strictly five days a week.

My current pay package is even better than my previous job. I have full autonomy, and I am managing hundreds of employees all over Asia. On top of that, I am now managing my vendor which is my ex-company.

His way is truly not our way! For me to get this job is a miracle!

I have learnt that even when we don’t understand God’s instructions, all we need to do is obey and take a bold step of faith. God Almighty is in control and He will make all things work for our good!

Praise Jesus for His great sacrifice that allows us to enjoy all His unmerited favour and blessings!

Open Door to a Better Job!

I decided to leave the company that I’ve worked in for almost 20 years. I could no longer take the stress of the long working hours, heavy workload and office politics. I believed and trusted that God would take care of me.

I was jobless by the end of October 2012, but I’d started sending out my résumé in September. I sent out many résumés but didn’t receive many replies. I only managed to attend 10 interviews and did not receive any replies from these interviews. I was disappointed and felt down.

I was also very worried because my wife had to support our family of four. There were loans and bills to pay and mouths to feed. As the head of the family, I really felt condemned because I couldn’t provide for my family.

Every day and night, a voice would bombard my mind telling me I’m useless, hopeless and so on. The devil even used the mouths of close friends and family to discourage me.

Then I remembered what you shared about tuning in to God’s Word instead of listening to the adversary. So I started to "bombard" myself with your sermons. I listened to sermon after sermon while doing the chores at home. For me, every day was like being in church. I started to receive peace on the inside even though the situation on the outside wasn’t good.

I kept praying and asking God to open doors for me, even though there was still no breakthrough. Every time I felt lost, three gentle words would rise up from the inside, “You shouldn't worry.” I knew this was God speaking to me.

In early January 2013, I received a phone call from a friend asking me if I would be interested to join his company. Of course, I accepted! The company prepared my contract and asked me to start work on 10 January. The best part was, I didn’t even need to attend the company’s interview. The pay is not bad either!

When Pastor Prince revealed that God will open doors of opportunities in 2013, it was like a confirmation for me on the inside. I know this is the work of God because in the natural, I had struggled to get a job: I’m in my 40s and don’t have the required qualifications.

I thank God for pastors like you, Pastor Prince; your teachings have been a blessing to me and my family. Praise the Lord! Yes, preach it, pastor!

God Provides, Restores and Protects

I got married in early 2012 and the year was progressing normally. Like many newly-weds, my wife and I were worried about rising house prices and various other matters. We had prayed for a good unit and ended up buying the first one we viewed. Thank God that we managed to find a unit we liked.

However, I made several bad investments and lost a large chunk of my savings within a month during November 2012. I became very depressed and upset, but nevertheless, I continued to thank the Lord for my wife and family.

Looking back, I realised that despite praying and “trusting” in the Lord and His finished work, my heart and faith did not agree. Instead of resting in Jesus and His grace, I would choose to guess how God could help me mount a comeback. But we can never guess how our God works. The more we try to do so, the more we rely on our self-efforts.

By the end of 2012, I was at an ultimate low. It was only during the last service of 2012 when we received the prayer request card for 2013 that things started to change for me. I wrote down my prayer requests and prayed over them. One of them was to be financially secure for our new home and future.

During the New Year service in January 2013, Pastor Prince shared the message on the key of David. This touched our hearts, and my wife and I prayed for open doors (that may bless us) and closed doors (that may hurt us).

After hearing that message, miraculous things began to happen. God blessed me with several opportunities where I was blessed with returns of three times what I had lost in November 2012. Resting and trusting in Him to open and close doors has been the best thing that has ever happened and I cannot wait for more blessings in 2013! 

Just before Chinese New Year, my 85-year-old grandmother suffered a brain haemorrhage. The doctors diagnosed a 40 per cent chance of surviving. They told us that even if she survived, her brain may be damaged. According to the doctors, most patients in her condition would be entirely knocked out, but because of her old age and shrinking brain, she remained conscious despite the swelling in her brain. They also told us that if her situation became worse, they could not operate on her as it was almost certain she would suffer from brain damage.

We could do nothing but pray and let her know that she was in good hands. Despite feeling ill and somewhat confused, she was still able to say that she would leave everything in the hands of the Lord. All glory to God, she has now recovered and although her mobility is slightly impaired and she might still be confused at times, she recognises all the family members and never stops giving thanks to the Lord for protecting her throughout the ordeal.

My family and I are so excited and blessed to receive the messages God delivers through Pastor Prince. We look forward to see the rest of our prayer requests being fulfilled in this year of open doors!

Renewal of Strength

I want to thank God for what He has done in my life and to share my testimony. I resigned from my job this year and there were many times I felt frustrated for wasting time and money.  

However, I began feeding on the Word more intently, which includes listening to Pastor Prince via the Grace Capsule and also reading various books. Slowly, I learnt to relax, rest in Him and enjoy my quiet time with the Lord. Earlier this year, I even started partaking of the Holy Communion every day.

On a recent trip overseas, people around me were down with flu and fever, but I didn't get any symptoms. However, after returning home, I was struck down with a virus. I was informed that four of my companions contracted malaria after I departed. So I went to see my doctor as I was worried that it might be malaria. During my check-up, the doctor said it was only a sinus infection but I was to monitor my temperature every day.

There were times I felt feverish, but after partaking of the Holy Communion, the fever subsided. One night my fever seemed persistent, I was fearful and worried that it might be the onset of malaria. But God reminded me of how He heals and I felt His warm love and the fever once again subsided. This was the first time in 20 years of being a Christian that I experienced healing just by knowing His love for me!

I also went for a job interview — the only one I had in two months! It was a job I always wanted as a security police officer. However, before we were admitted for training, we were told to inform them of any old injury. Unfortunately, I had a ligament tear in my left leg many years ago and have stopped running since. I postponed the training to practice running and build up my stamina. Although it was still painful when I ran, I trusted God that I had already been healed.

Unfortunately, one week before my trial test, I sustained a muscle pull in my left thigh and couldn't continue with the trial. I reported in sick and rested for the whole week. However, I felt God telling me not to depend on myself but to rest in His grace.

During this time, I was encouraged by the testimony I heard in church service from a primary school student who had shared about how God helped him pass his 1.6km run. The boy even emerged as one of the top three in his cohort! What God could do for him, He can do for me too! Thank God! God not only helped me pass but also enabled me to finish with a score for silver, just two seconds short of gold! I'm also the oldest in the squad and yet they thought I was in my mid-20s!

Praise the Lord for keeping me strong, healthy and young! Last of all, I thank God for helping me pass all my tests when I had no confidence at all! I know I can't, but with Him, I can! Truly, His grace is sufficient for me and His power is made perfect in my weaknesses.

No Mistake Is Too Great for God to Restore

I was asked to resign immediately from my job after committing a horrible mistake. I felt lost and was very upset. I felt really lousy that I had allowed myself to commit such a mistake.

Then, I remembered Pastor Lian’s sermon about how God wants to bless us so that we can be a blessing to others. I began to proclaim this truth over my life and believed that God will surely give me another awesome job where He can bless me to be a blessing to my colleagues and employer.

Shortly after, I was called up for an interview for a managerial position, which required eight years of relevant working experience. I only had one. Nevertheless, I prayed and believed that God’s favour was on me. I went through three rounds of interviews and at the last round, I had to give a presentation to the boss of the company. I told God that I will do my best to prepare for the presentation but I will just be restful and let Him take charge of the interview.

Despite the lack of working experience, I was offered the job. Praise Jesus! I thank God for His favour and for putting me at the right place, at the right time.

God Gave Career a New Lease of Life

I lost my job as a general manager cum director of 15 years a few years ago. I tried looking for a job but I could not find a suitable one. At that time, my daughter was studying in Australia and my son was starting his first year of education in NUS. My wife’s income alone was not enough to support our family. So we sold most of my assets and downgraded our home.

My daughter, who is serving at the Hillsong Church in Sydney, and my son who is from New Creation Church, always asked me to attend church. But I refused. I struggled to get back on my feet by my own efforts but failed each time. I ended up working as a delivery driver and was too ashamed to even meet my friends. Frustrated with what was happening, I decided to listen to my children and attended New Creation for the first time in July 2009.

As I attended the services, I began to learn many things about our Lord from Pastor Prince. I learnt to not trust my own self-effort, but to trust in the Lord and to rest in the finished work of Christ. I know that I am not in a religion but I am in a personal relationship with Jesus. I know that Jesus’ sacrifice, which has crowned me with glory and honour, meant that I did not have to be ashamed of my job as a delivery driver.

I asked God for wisdom and prayed for qarah every day. I knew deep down that God has heard my prayers. Then in June 2010, I met a friend and he informed me of an opening in a large public listed organisation. I asked God if it was a divine arrangement and I felt prompted by the Holy Spirit to send in my résumé. Even though I am almost 60 years old, I believed that it did not matter. God will provide for me.

I was then called for an interview and was subsequently offered the job. I have been given a big room and the management is very pleased with my work. Praise God! Thank you, Pastor Prince, for revealing to me how great my God is and for preaching the gospel of grace so radically!

Received Multiple Career Blessings When She Rested in Him

Having graduated in 2009, I had to find a job amid the global economic meltdown. Almost everyone I spoke to advised me to lower my expectations and accept any reasonable job that came my way. But I kept encouraging myself with one sermon where Pastor Prince mentioned that God does not want to just bless us with a job, but a position in a company that we desire. Hence, I only applied for positions that I was interested in. To cut the story short, I was offered a position with a pay that was above my expectations. And I got the confirmation just in time for graduation!

In my new job, I was placed in a management trainee programme (MTP) with two rounds of postings to different departments. I submitted a list of preferred departments for my first department posting, and got none of my choices. I was a tad disappointed and concerned about being in a department that was not my area of expertise. However, I remembered proclaiming aloud, “Lord, I have no idea why I got into this department, but I know that it’s all in Your perfect plan, and something good is going to come out of this. As for my inexperience in this area of work, Jesus, if You’ve placed me here, I know Your wisdom will cause me to excel in every task that comes my way.” As it turned out, this posting was a blessing in disguise! My colleagues and bosses have been extremely willing and patient enough to show me the ropes, and I also found amazing favour with my superiors.

Barely two months after I started my MTP, my boss told me that he was sending me to the regional office in Kuala Lumpur (KL) for a week as they were shorthanded. I was extremely excited because management trainees don’t usually get to go on overseas business trips. But the Lord had prepared something even better. During a meeting the following week, my boss suddenly announced that he was going to extend my stay in KL to two months instead! I almost fell off my seat. A two-month business trip for a management trainee was an unprecedented arrangement in the company. There’s honestly no way my own efforts could have achieved something like this in a short span of two months.

Jesus really has a way of leaving me speechless when I see His love for me and rest in His peace.

Restful Increase in Career, Finances and Family

At the beginning of 2009, Pastor Prince shared that it was the dektos year. With that in mind, I started to believe that God would provide the finances and give me time away from work to be able to visit Israel (the holy land that I had a deep desire to visit) at the end of the year. Praise God! Abba provided, and my family and I went to Israel in December 2009! Towards the end of that trip, our tour leader asked if anyone wanted to visit Israel again next year. We proclaimed, “We’ll be back by God’s provision! Amen.”

I used to think that I have to meet a certain performance level to deserve all the good things from God. But now I know that God is eager to give and He does not withhold any of His blessings from His children. God’s blessings continued to pour on me and 2010 is indeed a year of restful increase. God gave me unmerited favour at my workplace with my colleagues and continues to do so. Despite what others of the world are facing like stress, severance etc., I am experiencing the opposite. I received a promotion with pay increment! All praise to my Abba! With the additional finances from God, we can now go to Israel again with more family members this year! Abba truly provides exceedingly above all that we ask!

That is not all. I used to agree with the world that childhood myopia will worsen each year. But once I knew that we are already complete in Christ, I refused to stand in agreement with the world’s opinion on my child’s eyesight. I believed that by His stripes, my child is already healed. So my child and I confessed daily that as Christ is, so are we in this world. At an eye check-up this year, not only did my child have no increase in myopia, but he also had a slight improvement in the left eye! We believe that restoration has started and will continue simply because we are healed by His stripes!

Blessed with a Better Paying Job While Resting in Jesus’ Finished Work

After working in a company for five and a half years, I was enjoying a good pay with a high position. However, I started to resent the way my colleagues were treated. I felt that although they were incompetent, they were given preferential treatment and had undeserved favour in the company. I also compared my pay with others. I became so dissatisfied, frustrated and cynical that I left the company.

In July 2009, I sent out my resumes and received quite a few job interviews for high level positions. Although things always looked positive, none of these opportunities materialised. I was frustrated, disappointed, angry and puzzled. By that time, I had been out of job for almost six months, much longer than I had expected.

Then, I heard Pastor Prince’s messages on restful increase and meditating on God’s Word and something changed in me. What blessed, wonderful, powerful messages! I started to feel less resentful and angry, and started to really meditate on resting in Jesus’ finished work. I believed even more deeply that I am loved by Jesus and entered into His rest. I remembered what Pastor Prince taught us and refused to allow my heart to be troubled or afraid. I meditated on the Word, confessed God’s promises and truths many times a day, anointed myself with oil daily and continued to tithe and make offerings to honour our heavenly Father.

Then, miracles began to happen. Within the span of a few days, I received five calls for job interviews, after a dry spell for about three months. For one of the jobs, the company expanded what was initially a junior position, with a 40 per cent pay cut from my previous job, to a senior position! The company was keen to interview me so I met up with the HR director and later, the CEO. I asked our Father for His wisdom, favour and good success. When I finished my interview with the CEO, the HR director made me a job offer on the spot with a prepared letter of employment! Praise Jesus! From a role which was prepared to pay me a 40 per cent pay cut, God turned it around to a 20 per cent pay raise!

What’s more, I found out that the company pays for my parking. And above all, my soul has prospered so much and I have true peace and joy which can only come by resting in Jesus. Restful increase is indeed the way to go, hallelujah!

Compensated After Job Offer Withdrawn and Subsequently Blessed with Another Job

Although I am an Australian resident, I have been attending New Creation Church during my frequent trips to Singapore in the last 15 months. Pastor Prince’s inspiring and anointed preaching has greatly encouraged, sustained and impacted me during my difficult period of job-hunting.

I had accepted a job offer in Bangkok, which was subsequently withdrawn. This left me shocked and devastated as I truly believed that it was the answer to my prayers for an overseas posting. However, recent events have demonstrated our Abba Father's love and protection for me, as that company has since shut down because of the political upheavals in Bangkok.

In the meantime, I have started work with another international hotel group with no reduction in pay. In fact, I have also been compensated by the other Bangkok company for a breach of contract. All praise, thanks, honour and glory to Jesus!

Expected to Be Dismissed from Her Job but Was Promoted Instead

I am from Indonesia but I have stayed in Singapore for about six years. I first worked as a factory worker and moved on to being a receptionist.

In January 2009, my company had a change of owners. My company then wanted to remove the role of a receptionist as they thought it was not necessary. There were two possibilities for me — to be fired or to move to another department.

Finally, the company placed me in another department for three months but told me that I would have to find another job after that. I was pregnant at that time and I felt very miserable and was worried.

After my maternity leave, I went back to work without a proper position. I just helped around. I thought I was going to be dismissed or asked to leave the company. Two months later, to my surprise, the company promoted me to be a supervisor in one of the divisions and to be in charge of 11 people. I never thought such a blessing could ever happen to me! When Pastor Prince said to ask for big things, in my heart, I believed God is my qualification. I had no experience or qualification, yet I got promoted to be a supervisor! Thank you, Pastor Prince, for preaching the gospel of grace that has amazingly transformed my life!

Blessed with a Job After Losing His Previous One

I was actively looking for another job as the bank I was working in was badly hit by the subprime crisis in 2008. In August 2009, due to work disagreements, my boss suggested that I move on and told me that he would give me three months to look for another job.

When I heard that, I was initially worried as I had just entered a long term financial commitment. However, when the dust settled, instead of panicking, I chose to listen to God’s Word as my next step. I listened to Pastor Prince’s sermons daily as I wanted to continuously remind myself that even with the economic downturn at that time, my peace and solution were found in Jesus.

I decided to submit my resignation a month later without a job offer. Although it appeared to be illogical, I felt a great sense of peace to do that after praying about it. Truth be told, I had never felt such joy for a long time.

Three weeks after I left my company, I received offers from three reputable banks in Singapore, of which two offered a salary with a 22 per cent to 25 per cent increment from my last drawn salary.

In the end, I accepted one of the offers and I am thankful that the new position was a positional and monetary promotion, with better hours. The work environment was less stressful and my health improved. Thank you Jesus!

I am also thankful for Pastor Prince’s messages. They are practical because our God is a practical God who is always our present source of encouragement, wisdom and solace.

Jesus Is Not Limited by Language!

In January 2011, my mother was diagnosed with a rare type of lung cancer. A major operation was inevitable, and we were all greatly affected.

Being the only Christian in the family, my sister asked me to pray for my mother. I found it very challenging to pray with my mother in Mandarin, so I used simple words and the anointing oil.

My husband and I also introduced Jesus and His love to my mother. We shared with her about the significance of the Holy Communion, and trusted that Daddy God would stir her desire to partake of the elements.

We also continued to share healing testimonies with my mother because she didn’t want to undergo the operation. When I felt that I had no more testimonies left, I would cry to Jesus and ask Him to take over. The very next day, my mother told me all about a healing testimony that she had heard from a neighbour. We were just overwhelmed by God’s love!

Soon, my mother started partaking of the Holy Communion by herself, and began praying and talking to Jesus. She finally agreed to the operation, and continually confessed that Jesus would not allow bad things to happen to her.

The day before the operation, my husband and I laid hands on my mother, and prayed that Jesus will guide the hands of the surgeon and even renew her youth. When my mother came out of the operating theatre, my sister and I rushed to the intensive care unit (ICU), and were dumbfounded by what we saw. Despite having undergone a major operation to remove her right lung, my 62-year-old mother looked radiant. Even the nurses and doctors were amazed!

My mother was discharged four days later and no additional treatment is required. On top of that, the Lord settled the hospital bills through an insurance company, and my mother has since accepted Christ!

Though my Mandarin may not be fluent, Jesus is not limited by my lack of vocabulary or terminology. My mother now attends the Mandarin service and is also actively attending care group! All glory to Jesus!

Power in Meditating on the Living Word

I joined the real estate industry to be an agent in August 2009. After months of hard work, I did not receive any breakthrough. I could not close a single deal. I became very disheartened and disappointed. I kept having negative thoughts like how lousy I was and that I should just quit. However, my breakthrough came when Pastor Prince preached at one of his sermons that we should have a bullet verse to counter our negative thoughts.

Right after that, I found myself a bullet verse in Jeremiah 29:11 which says that the Lord knows the plans He has for me — plans to prosper me and not harm me, plans to give me a hope and a future. Each time I had a negative thought, I would whip out my bullet verse and recite it constantly.

Within weeks, I closed my first deal eight months into the industry. In July 2010, Pastor Prince preached that we should pray and intercede for our situations. I had been marketing two semi-detached houses for more than two months but to no avail. After Pastor Prince’s sermon on prayer, I began to pray specifically, instead of my usual generic prayers, for God to bring the right buyers to view the houses and to make an offer. That week, my prayers were answered and one of the houses was sold.

Right after that, I went on a short trip to Tioman with my husband to celebrate our wedding anniversary. While I was lying on the beach reading Pastor Prince’s book Destined to Reign and listening to worship music on my iPod, my team mate called to inform me that the other semi-detached house which we had been marketing for almost three months had been sold. It was literally restful increase because I was lying on a beach and enjoying myself.

As if all these were not enough to prove His goodness, God provided even more! The moment I returned from Tioman, my father called to say that his friend wanted to sell his condominium unit. I got exclusive rights to market the place and it was sold in three weeks. All these happened in one month! Praise God! He does not just provide, He provides in abundance. This is the result I got when I meditated on the living Word of God. Thank You, Jesus! And thank you, Pastor Prince, for your invaluable teachings.

Praying in Tongues Changed My Life

In 1995, I became addicted to sleeping pills after my doctor prescribed it to me without my knowledge. Around that time, I was retrenched and could not find a permanent job. Without a proper income, I was unable to provide well for my family and it stressed me out.

Then, I suffered from such bad sinusitis that mucus was trapped behind my cheekbone and I couldn't clear it myself. I had three operations but it didn’t get better, and my left cheek became constantly infected instead. For years, I had to take expensive antibiotics to clear the infection and visit the hospital regularly to “flush out” the mucus.

Due to the antibiotics I was taking, I started suffering from gastritis. My stress level increased and I simply couldn't sleep naturally. It was a vicious cycle. A psychiatrist said I had depression and stress, and gave me more pills.

Every day, I was taking up to 30 tablets for depression, stress, gastric pain, infection, sleep... I think my whole system was upside down with all the medication. At that point, with three sleeping pills, I could only sleep at most two hours, after which I would wake up and not be able to go back to sleep. I ended up popping six pills every night. Being broke, I went into a construction business hoping that the situation would improve. It didn’t. There were sales but I had problems collecting payments. At times, I really wished I would die in my sleep.

I started having panic attacks. When it happened, I couldn't leave the house, couldn’t drive, couldn’t do anything, and my wife at times would have to stay home to look after me. I was in such a bad condition that I just didn’t know how to live my life. I even gained weight although I was not eating well. I ballooned from 46kg to 56kg and my waist went from 28 to 34 inches.

Then, in April 2003, I felt the Lord telling me to just speak in tongues. I didn’t feel any major change or anything initially. But when I prayed in tongues, I felt peace. When I had a panic attack, instead of taking a pill, I started to pray in tongues and listen to Pastor Prince's message tapes. The resulting peace I felt would take the panic away.

After praying in tongues regularly for two months, I was healed of my sinus and gastric problems. I was jobless then and praying a lot, as long as I could remember to pray. Around that time, Pastor Prince preached on spiritual warfare and said that in a major battle, it’s good to pray in tongues, and I continued to pray and pray and pray.

In May, I felt the Lord telling me to start a business doing what I loved, which was to repair computers. There was already a deluge of computer repair businesses out there, but I obeyed the prompting nonetheless. Amazingly, the finances started coming in and I’m now able to provide for my family. I also felt God instruct me to take only two meals a day and enjoy whatever food I wanted for those meals. I did and my weight started dropping! In September, my waist was back to 28 inches and I weighed 46kg.

Around the same time, the Lord told me not to buy any more sleeping pills and said that He would enable me to sleep. In October, when I had no more pills, I told the Lord, “I depend on You now.”

That night, a Sunday, I couldn’t sleep and started praying in tongues. The hours passed — 1am, 2am, 3am, and I still couldn’t sleep. I ended up praying in tongues the whole night. On Monday night, I prayed in tongues till 2am and slept for an hour, an hour of good quality sleep! I continued praying in tongues. On Tuesday, I slept blissfully for two hours; on Wednesday, three hours; Thursday, four hours; and Friday, five hours — all without any pills.

God delivered me in five days from an addiction of nine years! No one else could have done it. Now, my wife says that she has found a new husband and my three children say they have found a new papa. Glory to the Lord!

A Restoration of Much More

I attended New Creation Church since February 2013, and the blessings I’ve received from hearing the message of grace was something I had never experienced before.

In January 2013, I was asked to leave my job when my company learnt of my intention to study for my doctorate (PhD). It was unfortunate for me especially when I was waiting for my PhD application outcome. It did not take me long before I was offered a temporary position with a small consulting firm.

However, my brief experience with this firm was unpleasant and I was soon asked to go. At around the same time, I learnt that my PhD application was unsuccessful. It was a double loss for me.

By God’s grace, I bought and listened to Pastor Prince’s DVDs titled, It’s Time To Receive Your Restoration and Receive Restoration As You Walk With Jesus. Through these messages, I was certain of His desire to restore my life. In April 2013, a consulting firm owner offered me a contract during a workshop and I was gainfully employed as a management consultant.

But that is not the end of the story because when God restores, He provides something way better. In my current role, I see a 47.8 per cent increment from my last gross salary and a company sponsorship to do my Master’s programme in 2014. Glory to Jesus!

Remarkable Recovery from Virus Infection

In March 2012, during the first school semester break, my daughter, Megan, who was in Secondary 3, was selected to participate in an overseas learning programme in Australia.

After she got back, she came down with a mild fever and missed two days of school. However, what was initially thought to be just mild fever became something so serious that we, as a family, were not prepared for.

Her fever persisted and she continued to experience fatigue and backache. The doctor then ordered her to go for tests to check on her liver function and blood count level. Thank God for wisdom in the attending doctor as I was still dismissing the situation as just another usual fever episode.

On the following day, I received a call from the clinic saying that my daughter had to be admitted to the hospital as the test results were very bad.

Usually, a healthy liver would have an alanine aminotransferase (ALAT) serum reading of around 5 to 30 micromole per litre. But my daughter’s liver test results came back with a whopping 561 micromole per litre, which was more than 10 times the healthy level. To be exact, it was 18.7 times more.

She was admitted to the hospital on 22 March 2012 where they ran a battery of tests on her. After three days, the doctor was still unable to give a clear diagnosis of my daughter’s condition as blood culture test results would only be ready in another couple more days.

Meanwhile, my daughter’s ALAT serum reading managed to drop to around 200 micromole per litre. Though it was still above the acceptable range, the doctor acceded to our request to have my daughter discharged on the condition that she goes for her blood test every week.

Nine days after her discharge, it was confirmed that my daughter had contracted a nasty infection known as Epstein–Barr Virus (EB Virus).

This virus usually attacks the healthy liver, resulting in fever, extreme weakness of body and jaundice. The patient will also experience discomfort and abdominal pain.

My daughter suffered from all of the symptoms and the subsequent weekly blood tests results indicated an atrociously high ALAT serum of more than 1,500 micromole per litre. She was then admitted to the hospital for a second time.

As parents, one could only imagine the kind of anguish and predicament that we were in. But this was when all the teachings we had received through Pastor Prince’s ministry were put to test.

The circumstances forced us to rely on God’s grace to guard our hearts and minds. It wasn’t just about the illness we were battling with. My daughter was also anxious about her studies and 10 weeks of lessons missed.

One would have imagine how badly damaged her liver was at this time with ALAT serum readings in the region of 1,500 to 1,800 micromole per litre. Health studies told us that she might end up suffering from chronic fatigue and would take up to a year to regain her full energy.

Thank God that our Abba Father has the final say! Despite the ridiculously high readings, we had His unshakeable peace. We continued to believe that healing is our daughter’s blood–bought right because of the finished work of Jesus at Calvary.

Youth ministry pastor, Pastor Daniel Chong, also came to the hospital to pray and encouraged us to count on Daddy God for our daughter’s complete healing and restoration.

Praise God that He has the authority and power to change our circumstances! All glory to His name! My daughter did not suffer from any chronic fatigue. Instead, she made a remarkable recovery and was given a clean bill of health in early June. She also made it to the annual youth camp two weeks later in Malaysia!

God’s unclouded favour continued to rain upon my daughter as she found favour with her school’s principal and teachers. Her teachers set aside time when the new school term began in July to help her catch up with the studies that she had missed in the 10 weeks that she was absent from school. What an awesome God we have!

In the following year, my daughter sat for her O–Levels examinations and she did well.

In addition, God also intervened and we were able to pay off more than 98 percent of my daughter’s hefty hospitalisation bill through an insurance payout. This was a huge relief for us and we are still thankful to Daddy God’s timely provision.

Family Blessed Because of Jesus

I started listening to Pastor Prince’s sermons in October 2010 and used to listen to his sermon CDs in my room secretly or on my MP4 player. My extended family were all devout believers, including my husband, but he got angry that I listened to other Christian CDs.

At some point, my husband began to experience some trials in life. He was retrenched and tried looking for jobs but found nothing suitable.

One Saturday, I went to Rock Gifts And Book Centre to get Pastor Prince’s sermon CD as I usually do. My husband volunteered to drive me there and when he entered the shop, he was touched by some words he saw in the shop.

He then said to me that for him to attend New Creation Church, he had to see a miracle. But I told him if he would attend the church, his miracle would follow.

We started attending New Creation Church together on the third week of January 2015. My husband began to know Jesus as a close, loving friend and he discovered that Christianity was about building a relationship with this loving God and not a religion.

He started to talk about Jesus as though he had fallen in love for the first time, and couldn’t stop talking about Him. Surprisingly, he received a call for an interview. He was offered a position and not just a job. Praise to Jesus Christ alone!

Not only so, faith crept into my mother’s heart after she heard me share about Jesus. For 30 years, she suffered from a discharge even after her womb was removed. As faith arose in her heart, she began to partake of the Holy Communion daily. In just three days, she was completely healed from her condition! Praise the Lord!

Fruitful Increase

2010 was truly a year full of restful increase. The company I was working for didn’t give me a huge increment, but I didn’t have to work very hard and rarely worked overtime. I had a lot of maternity leave to clear, which meant that I was working just four days a week.

When I started looking for a new job, I wanted a position of influence and got an offer in early May 2010. But I didn’t feel the peace to accept the offer and was led by the Lord to wait.

A few months later, I was retrenched due to restructuring. It was a blessing in disguise. If I’d taken the earlier offer, I would have missed out on my retrenchment package and other payments such as notice period and my outstanding maternity leave, which would add up to almost five months of my basic pay.

By early July, I’d received three more job offers. I prayed about each position, but again didn’t have peace to accept any of them. It was not an easy decision as I was tired of going for interviews. But I believed that God sees my future and He knows best. So, I decided to wait for the right offer.

At the end of July, I received an offer from an overseas company. At first, I wasn’t keen as I felt the position was rather junior and the company quite small. They offered me a 23 per cent pay raise which my recruitment agent told me, was the best deal he’d seen all year.

The timing was perfect. This job provided me the seed to sow for Miracle Seed Sunday on 22 August 2010. My first few weeks in the company were really challenging. I faced many issues and felt overwhelmed, but God reassured me that as long as I continued to trust in Him, I would see miracles.

After three months in the company, I still felt unsettled and felt more miserable than I was when I first joined. But I continued to believe God for my miracle.

Shortly after, I got a call from another company asking if I was interested in a position even though I didn’t apply for it. I went for two rounds of interviews and got the job. They gave me a further salary increase including family benefits.

There were probably many more capable candidates with more experience, and yet they chose me! It is just God’s favour on me and my family.

We made a trip to Israel in 2011, and during the trip, God impressed upon me to believe Him for great things. I prayed for financial freedom and to get a promotion this year, 2012.

At first, with so many things going on in the office, it was like what Pastor Prince had said about 2012 being a time of famine. But pastor also shared from the Word that the children of God will still bear much fruits even in a time of famine.

In March 2012, I received news that I won a global award for driving a turnaround in employee engagement and satisfaction while improving efficiency, control and team performance.

Our company was on a tight budget but I received a merit increase which was 50 per cent higher than average. In April 2012, my bonus amount came up to exactly what I had asked for in December 2011. Again, God was good and faithful.

I know that God’s goodness does not end here. As we come to the end of 2012, I am believing Jesus for a great and blessed 2013!

Thank you Pastor Prince for sharing the Word each week, I look forward to hearing you preach each Sunday.

No Stress, Just Blessed!

When I was a student, I faced heavy stress during my 'O' level examinations. I battled poor grades and even thoughts of suicide. I never told anyone about the intense loneliness and desperation I felt during the night.

Unbeknown to me, Daddy God, through His grace, brought my mother to New Creation Church and she came home proclaiming the gospel of grace.

Now, I've been a Christian since young, but had never been exposed to God's grace. Hearing Pastor Prince’s teachings filled me with a wondrous sense of God's love and freed me from the bondage of depression! I faced my next examinations fearlessly, knowing I was covered with His grace and favour. I did well enough to enter the polytechnic course of my choice, and although I was not the best of students, by His grace, I gained acceptance into a local university!

Just before graduating, a company I used to work for contacted me with a job offer. It was awesome to be back and I really enjoyed working with my ex-colleagues. But the job scope was drastically different from what I’d been studying. I spoke to Daddy God about this dilemma — I felt I wasn't fully utilising my years of study, and wondered if I should seek out another opportunity.

I sent out résumés, but wasn’t particularly interested in any job. My colleagues were also very supportive and a great source of encouragement. A few months later, I received a call asking if I was still available. My new job offer came as a shock; Daddy God increased my salary substantially above what I had expected!

I really thank God for unveiling the gospel of grace to Pastor Prince and allowing him to touch so many precious lives around the world.

All praise to Daddy God, He is incredibly GOOD all the time!!!

Job Blessing Before Graduation

Recently, Pastor Prince preached a sermon titled, None Of Us, All Of Christ, and in it, you encouraged people who were having interviews in the coming week. That moment, I knew that the Word was for me because I had an interview the following Thursday. It was a job I really wanted. Pastor Prince also mentioned that God would supply me with the words to say.

I was really excited and I felt really loved by my heavenly Abba Father. During the week before my interview, a friend warned me about the unpleasant interviewer. As I was preparing for the interview, I just kept recalling what you shared in your sermon.

I am easily nervous but during that interview, I was unexpectedly calm and peaceful even after every negative reply from the interviewer. In fact, what I had prepared to say in the interview didn’t help me much. Words to every question just flowed out of my mouth. This all goes to show that I cannot, but He can! Moreover, after the interview, I felt very joyful!

While waiting for the organisation’s reply, I doubted, but thanked God that He used people around me to remind me of His goodness and to focus on Him. On 6 November 2012, I received an email from the organisation with a job offer upon my graduation!

Due to the bleak outlook of the economy, many of my friends were worried about getting a job upon graduation. I had asked the Lord for a job before my graduation, but now He has over supplied me with one that has good working hours and starting pay. I am truly thankful for His goodness and love towards me.

Thank you, Pastor Prince, for preaching the truth and for being a wonderful blessing to me and my family!

Dream Job Came Knocking

I am writing to share about a series of my prayers which were answered, and how the Meditate for Success daily devotional emails helped me succeed in my recent job search. 

By choice, I have been a stay-at-home mum for the past two and a half years. Before that, I worked and held management positions in various well-established companies. My daughters were six and three years old at that time when I decided to forgo my working career and income to care for them full time. During this time, my husband also resigned from his job and started his own business.  Throughout this period of being a stay-at-home mum, the Lord provided for me and my family.

Over the last one year, I had been prayerfully considering going back to work next year in 2013. Both my daughters would be in primary school by then and childcare facilities would be available for them.  

I sent countless job applications over the course of one year, but did not get a single call to attend any interview. I tried tapping into my network of contacts but this too did not reap any results. It would have been very easy to feel rejected and have poor self-esteem! However, I chose to hold on to the promises of God and meditated on how much He loved me that He gave up Jesus for me. I boldly told God that if it was His will that I return to work, then He would send a job to me! I also requested for a regional role for the next phase of my career to come with work-life balance as my children are still young.

On 13 September 2012, a recruiter who found me via my online profile contacted me. Things moved very quickly and a first interview was set up within a week. The second and third interviews followed swiftly too — they took place all within the next week. It was like a sign from God! During the interview period, Pastor Prince’s daily devotionals also reminded me how I can be victorious through Christ.

Today, I have a position that not only came “looking for me” as I had requested, but also spans the Asia Pacific market and yet, still allows time for my family.  Thank you, Pastor Prince, for your sharing, and all glory to God for giving me this new job!

Winner Of Style: Weddings Beautiful Couple 2010 Contest

In March 2010, my wife, Berinda, and I submitted our application to join the Style: Weddings Beautiful Couple contest. By August, we did not receive any news from the organisers and thought that the competition was over. In September, we were notified that we were shortlisted for the contest. We were excited because we knew that God had a hand in it. I was supposed to go overseas for a work trip in October but my boss pushed my departure date to November. If not, I would not have been able to take part in the contest.

During the semi-finals, we had to go through an interview. The interviewer revealed that the prize was $15,000 worth of jewellery and vouchers. When I heard that, my heart rejoiced. I was not able to afford jewellery for Berinda during our wedding but now, I know that our heavenly Father is personally giving Berinda her wedding gift.

On 31 October 2010, we went for the finals. We were couple number five — the number of grace! During the styling session, none of the hairstylists wanted to attend to Berinda as she had short hair. In the end, the owner of the salon personally styled Berinda’s hair! Before it was our turn to go on stage, Berinda suggested that we pray. We prayed that every word that came out of our mouths would be guided by the Holy Spirit, revealing the beauty of Jesus to the audience.

On stage, we were asked to choose a random question from a fishbowl. Our question was, "How do you intend to keep the relationship strong after you're married?" I answered, "We love because God first loved us. And God is love. So I told Berinda that I will never love her out of my own effort, but I will only love her with the love of God. And when I look to God, it is He who gives me the strength to love Berinda." The microphone was then passed to Berinda. She expressed that she will not look to me for happiness, but her eyes will always be fixed on God, and that putting God in the centre of our relationship will make us a stronger couple. When we went offstage, I kept thinking that perhaps we should have said something more practical. But God's peace assured me that it was okay.

When it was time to reveal the winning couple, the judges came up and commented that they were eloquent, had chemistry and were very comfortable with each other. To our delight, Berinda and I won the competition! After the competition, one of the organisers shared with us that they almost did not select us for the semi-finals because we were married a little longer than the rest, but they kept coming back to our pictures and had to meet us. That was another confirmation that it was God who orchestrated the whole event. This is truly a year of restful increase. All glory to Jesus!

Jesus Provided My Scholarship!

At the beginning of 2012, Pastor Prince asked us to bring our three prayer requests to the Lord, and to see them fulfilled and answered by the Lord. One of my prayers was to get a scholarship so as to continue my studies in a local university.

When I applied for my scholarship, I did not have exceptionally good results. In fact, I had average records, which made me feel inferior to others. But I strongly believed that Jesus is my provider. I chose not to look to man for provision, but to look to Him, for He is Jehovah Jireh!

Lo and behold, I was called for a scholarship interview. That very same week, I attended Sunday service and Pastor Prince was preaching on Hebrew 6:14. ("Surely blessing I will bless you, and multiplying I will multiply you.") I claimed that verse for myself and kept on meditating on other verses. I also declared that the Lord is my favour, wisdom and courage.

By grace, I was awarded with an ASEAN scholarship! Praise the Lord! He has blessed me beyond what I could have imagined! Our God is indeed a big God! Thank you Pastor Prince for preaching the gospel of grace. My perspective of my heavenly Father has changed and I am so in love with Jesus.

I can't wait to see my other prayer requests come to pass! Indeed it is a year of unceasing fruitfulness!

Career Acceleration Through God’s Favour

After working for my dad’s company for 20 years, he told me that business was bad and he could not afford to hire me anymore.

He broke the news to me on a Friday. That Sunday, I went to church and Pastor Prince was preaching about God’s provision. The message was so timely for me and I told myself that God will provide for me. A week later, one of my previous clients called me with a job offer. Despite the fact that I did not have any relevant experience and was computer illiterate, the company was willing to hire and train me! And they offered me a pay that was 40 per cent more than what I asked God for, praise Jesus!

Eleven months into the job, I was promoted to be a manager and received a 45 per cent pay increment. Seven months later, I was appointed to be a regional manager for my company’s China market.

2010 marked my third year with the company and I was posted to Malaysia to take care of one of our branches there. I was promoted to be a branch manager, received a 60 per cent pay increment and was provided with an apartment to stay in Malaysia! Hallelujah!

I really thank God for all His miracles in the past three years. Thank you, Pastor Prince, for teaching us that our God is good. All things are possible with God!
