Prayer pointers 5 May 2022
“The Lord is my strength and my shield; in him my heart trusts, and I am helped; my heart exults, and with my song I give thanks to him.” – Psalms 28:7, ESV
Do you feel burnt out, defeated and in tatters? Who can you rejoice in and trust to put a song in your heart to raise you up triumphantly?
Praise God:
– That our heavenly father, the creator and author of our lives has our best interest at heart. He is readily there to bless us.
Pray for
– Our hearts to be attuned with God’s will to know and to fulfil his purpose in us so as to glorify him.
– EAST community to continue to rise up in God’s strength and protection; trusting Him to lift us up in victory.

Prayer pointers 28 April 2022
“The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?” – Psalms 27:1, ESV
What or who are you fearful of today? Are you afraid to step out, as the borders have opened up? Who is timeless, all powerful, all majestic and all loving to one and all?
Praise God:
– That our heavenly father loves us. He guides us to the right path and grants us salvation. We are to boldly do according to His will to glorify Him.
Pray for
– God’s leading to the most needful ministry field, so that the people there will receive your light and salvation.
– EAST alumni to be fearless and selfless in sharing the good news to whoever and wherever God sends them to.

Upcoming Webinar: Jesus in Conflict (Jerusalem)
As we celebrate our 30th anniversary this year, Rev Dr Keith Shubert from our faculty will look closely into the accounts of how Jesus handled conflicts(often with the Pharisee and Sadducee authorities) in His visits to Jerusalem to glean lessons relevant for us today.
Dr Keith, as we affectionately know him, has been teaching the Bible for many years, and he reminds us frequently, “The Bible is not for your information, but for your transformation.”
This series of webinars will be held over two evenings from 24 to 25 May 2022.
