Prayer pointer 11 August 2022
“Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid.” John 14:27 – ESV
Are the external shockwaves of tension amongst nations and the covid-19 pandemic troubling and robbing you of your peace and joy?
Praise God:
– That our nation, Singapore, is relatively safe amidst the daunting uncertainties of lockdowns and political tensions in some countries.
Pray for:
– Wise and humble national leaders who serve selflessly with a deep sense of purpose in our nation’s best interest, as we celebrate 57th National birthday.
– EAST community to recognise that though we employ technology and other media in reaching out, it is people not programmes and technology who disciple and transform people.

Seek God for the Future
Listening to Daniel Yoncer speak about his past, present and future plans, one gets a peek into a tender heart for people. “Back in uni days, my sis and I invited people to our home a lot, even people we hardly knew,” says Daniel, who tells you he can whip up a decent escargot a’ la Bourguignonne for his guests.
And the self-professed ‘introvert’ enjoys listening to people. “During the pandemic, God led many with needs to my path, and used them to grow my empathy.”
Prayer pointer 4 August 2022
“Strive for peace with everyone, and for the holiness without which no one will see the Lord.” Hebrews 12:14 – ESV
Do you choose heaven or hell? To gripe leads to hell, strive for peace and holiness with gratitude leads to heaven.
Are People Feeling Lonely in Church?
Are you lonely? If you are, you are not alone. Rev Dr Tan Soo Inn, a panellist at the upcoming The Silent Pandemic: Loneliness in the Churches seminar, writes about the danger of loneliness found in today’s churches.
Rev Tan cites studies of urban church worshippers who found friendly believers in churches but not friends. This is coupled with the negative effect of loneliness being like that of obesity and smoking. Churches are gospel communities of those reconciled to God and to fellow man. How then do churches get their “relational act together” in addressing the issue of loneliness?
