After the material of seminar was ended, it was the time for God’s Word to be delivered by Rev. Michelle Simalango. It began by singing “Tiap Langkahku Diatur oleh Tuhan”.
The Word of God from Luke 15: 11-12
And he said, A certain man had two sons:
And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth to me. And he divided unto them his living.
If we do not appreciate what God has given us, then we will be like that lost son who had been a son but became a pig keeper, wanted to eat the pig’s dregs.
No matter how dirty his son was, he ran to hug his son.
His status was returned back as his father’s son. His father dressed up him with a robe, a ring and shoes, as a sign that he was a son of his father.
Our birth was not coincidence but it is said the same image as God. There is a plan of God in our lives, because of God’s help and will.
God’s Word was ended with a prayer and the souls were watching a Passion of the Christ’s movie, they watched the film seriously.
Praise the Lord, when the challenge of receiving the Lord Jesus was given, many raised their hands, asked God to come into their hearts.
How exciting to see those people gave their lives to serve the Lord!
Rev. Michelle Simalango then invited for those who had struggles to come forward to be prayed for. Some came forward and prayed.
Those who came forward were prayed for their problems.
Counsellors prayed for and embraced their friends who came forward with love.
That day at IPDN POUK Church, God saved and restored many souls who were present with His love. Their lives would no longer be the same, God has already transformed them into new ones!
