The Difference

I got up early this morning,
and rush right into the day,
I had so much to accomplish
that I didn't have time to PRAY.

Problems just tumbled about me and
heavier came each task, "Why don't God help me?"
I wondered, He answered "You didn't ask!"
I wondered why God didn't show me,
He said, " But you didn't seek!"

I tried to come into God's presence,
I use all my keys at the lock,
God gently and lovingly chided,
"My child, you didn't knock!"

I woke up early the next morning,
and paused before entering the day.
I had so much to accomplish that
I had to TAKE TIME TO PRAY!

Remember our majority Neighbors

Dear fellow worker on the campus,(people who are serving in
God's ministries)
 
This year FES is calling urgently for the breaking down of the walls
of prejudice against our majority neighbor!  You all would know
that this is our 5th prophetic call for 2009-2012, from FES.  If you
don?t already know, please get your copy of the Gegaran Kini
from your staffworker. (Can get it from Jia Lerd)
 
For the past 1 year, all staff have been praying for our majority
neighbor (those who cannot openly hear the Gospel in our land)
and ourselves with regards to them.  This year, we want to invite
you to join us. 

   In praying, we can move unseen walls and ask God to bring
conviction upon us. Many of us have great prejudices buried within
ourselves.  We must act now, otherwise, we will be too late in
answering God's call to LOVE OUR NEIGHBORS AS OURSELVES. 
So, every Friday, we will remind you to pray.  But you can pray
anytime during the week. 

Please pray, and urgently too.  Many things are happening in our
country that is inviting people to hate.  We must be the ones who
put on our walking shoes, and WALK LOVE'S 1000 MILES!!!!!
 
Prayer :
Let us pray that in the light of all the demonstrations and
violence, and the recent upheaval concerning the use of the
word, "Allah", we as Christians will join in the revolution of
LOVE.  Pray that God will give us enough courage and
compassion to do so.
 
From,
Sock Lee and Annette

Updates.

Hey one hey all!!

Okay here's the deal, we're starting the majority of ICF activities this week. That means, there's captain ball today. =D Haven't you just been itching to run around the field and throw the ball around for some exercise? Well, the time has come for you to do so! We'll meet at Inti's Football field at 6PM today, till 7.30pm (or sundown) and then dinner later on, as we always do xD Weather reports look good!!!

Hoping to see you there...

For all ICF-ers.

All those who went for Why Love? camp, you all remember Kevin Tan? (If I'm not mistaken it was him who came up with the new and improved Mafia)
Well, Brian (from ICSJ) told me yesterday that he's still sick, from camp. It's three weeks now and this is kinda worrysome... So, if you guys would be so nice as to pray for him, that would be great.
Also, Brian tells me that Kevin was hearing things and vomitting green stuff... Some sort of spiritual attack? Anyway, he also happened to have slept on the same double decker bed as Samson (who was sick halfway through camp and had to go back and later on got diagnosed with H1N1, and now recovered)

It would be a great help if you could keep him in your prayers. For all those who don't know Kevin Tan and didn't go for camp, well you can always still pray for a brother in christ. Believe in the name of Jesus, and keep Kevin in your prayers. I'll try to keep you all updated on his situation.

Thanks so much. =D

Prayer Request.

Hey guys and gals, Lynne here.
I've just received word from my sister that this kid (Samuel Lim - 12 yrs old) in my church has confirmed for H1N1 and his whole family is currently in quarantine. Please do pray for them and the kid as well as he is supposed to be sitting for UPSR this year. Thank You.

Also to remind you,
If you have a prayer request
You can always mail or inform
One of the committee members
Or Email it directly to ICF's email.
God Bless...

A CF-er is...

A CF-er is someone who...

1. gets together with other CF-ers for spiritual purposes: for sharing needs, for prayer, for discussing and sharing the Word to encourage, comfort, and edify one another.

2. works together with other CF-ers and cares for one another as a company of people, like a company of soldiers or members of a family.

3. manifests the the qualities or spirit of Jesus in their lives: Christlike.

Core components of a Christian Fellowship:
-Relationship
-Partnership
-Companionship
-Stewardship

Relationship: The Foundation For Fellowship
-As believers in Christ, we are related to Christ and to each other in that we have been joined into union with Him; we are members of His body through the baptizing work of the Holy Spirit. Fellowship means we share this relationship and it is an objective fact regardless of our spiritual condition (cf. 1 Cor 1:2 with 3:1-3).

Partnership: The Means of Fellowship
- The Fellowship of the Holy Spirit

• All aspects of fellowship are dependent upon the ministry of the Holy Spirit. Before salvation, fellowship with God in the sense of relationship (union) depends on His pre-salvation work, the conviction of truth, followed by His work of regeneration and baptizing accompanied by the Spirit’s indwelling as a gift of the Father and the Son (John 16:8, 2 Thess. 2:13, Tit. 3:5, 1 Cor. 12:12,13). After salvation the experience of fellowship in communion with God depends on the filling of the Spirit.

- Fellowship in the Gospel

• Acts 2:42 And they were continually devoting themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.
• Central to these believers’ fellowship was the teaching of the apostles. Being devoted to our relationship, partnership, companionship, and stewardship depends on our devotion to Scripture.
• All believers share in common the life of Christ positionally and experientially. Consequently, they also share with one another in Christ’s enterprise on earth.

Companionship: The Method of Fellowship
- Fellowship with God: The vertical dimension

• Companionship, as suggested previously, involves communion or communication, interchange, intimacy, sharing and receiving. If there is going to be fellowship with God, we must first draw on the Lord’s resources as we listen to Him in His Word, as we allow the Spirit of God to talk to us through Scripture and through the various providential events of life (trials, blessings, etc.) and through the lives of others around us. We need to be open to Him, receptive, teachable. In our communion with the Lord, we need to listen to His voice and respond in obedience.

- Fellowship with Christians: The Horizontal dimension

• God has created us to be dependent people—dependent on Him and on one another. His judgment in Genesis 2:18, “it is not good for the man to be alone,” is a principle that speaks not only to marriage, but to all of life and especially to the spiritual fellowship of all believers.
• No man is an island. None of us has the ability to go it alone. We need the communion or companionship of one another.
• We should not … think of our fellowship with other Christians as a spiritual luxury, an optional addition to the exercises of private devotion. We should recognize rather that such fellowship is a spiritual necessity; for God has made us in such a way that our fellowship with himself is fed by our fellowship with fellow-Christians, and requires to be so fed constantly for its own deepening and enrichment.

Stewardship: The Overflow of Fellowship

• Giving, the steward of our material blessings, is also a part of our fellowship, our sharing in the work of the Savior as we experience His life, His values and priorities in our own lives through our fellowship with Him.
• As believers in partnership with the Savior, we are not owners, but stewards of the things God has given us which includes not only our talents (spiritual gifts), our temple (our body), our time, and God’s truth, but also the treasures, the material blessings God gives us.
• Therefore use all the things God has given us wisely. And most importantly use it for God's glory and according to His will.

Just want to encourage all CF-ers to love, care and pray for one another as well as share words of encouragement and thoughts. Attend prayer meeting, care group and wednesday CF meeting regularly! Because this is essential for the fellowship of Christians.

On behalf of ICF, to all readers...

Simply Because...

Last week was officially our last week for CF meetings, but some of us felt the need to continue praying no matter what.
This week we had 17 people turn up for Prayer Meeting *claps claps claps* This is more than our usual for the past semester and I pray it continues to grow.
Also, Prayer Meeting will be ON AGAIN NEXT WEEK, and I hope you do join us.. heh. we might even continue this during our exams (who knows. xD)

Join us as we continue to
thank God for his goodness,
pray for one another,
pray for ICF,
and we've even be praying for 14th Intima!!

We want to pray and trust God
for greater things that have yet to come,
in the coming semesters.

Greater things have yet to come,
greater things have yet to be done
in this college Uni~!

High Chances Of Rain

Okay, Chances of There being a captain Ball Session today is very slim =(

Reason being weather forecasts expects rain!
Now, I've found this forecast to be quite reliable...

So this is a notification.

BUT

We Have GOD on our side!
So people, if you want to play captain ball, PRAY.

After all, He was the one who created our weather in the first place.
With God, All things are possible! Amen?

XD

Worry.

It's currently one hour to the middle of the weekend.

While some people are enjoying the air cond, sitting on a bed, reading a book, playing games, out to yum cha, or simply plain bored somewhere in Malaysia, we have 3 people roaming Inti grounds.

Why?

As you all may have heard or seen around, Islam Awareness Week (IAW) is this coming week. 1st June to 4th June. Now this is NOT a prmotion for them.
If you've been paying attention, you'd know, Beau Bristow concert is on 4th June. Which is the last day of IAW.

They've started putting up flyers. And tonight 3 souls, roaming Inti grounds are spamming it (with the approval of SAO of course) with Beau Bristow posters... you may have already seen some of them on the bridge. But we are currently going all out to make the event known!

Pray.

This is a Muslim country after all that we're living in. And although we do have permission to put up all these posters, I'm afraid we may have some trouble. May. I don't know what kind of trouble, but I know that we're going head on with IAW.

Also, it IS an open doors event, to anyone and everyone who would like to come. It's completely free so we don't know how many people may come, and we don't know what kind of people are coming.

So I urge you, whether you're a member of ICF, participant, or maybe you didn't even come to the booth or plan to go for ICF, I still ask that you, as long as you're a christian, pray for us. We don't want any trouble with them.

I hope you'll keep this event in your prayers.
-Fine weather
-Bristow, the man himself
-everything involving technolgy
(as you know they tend to mess up at the most crucial times)
-ICF band
-the people who will attend
-concert publicity to be noticed
-no trouble from IAW
and whatever else that may come to your mind.
