30 June 2007 – Praise and Prayer from Robert & Dara Peh

Thank God for His faithfulness in our lives and ministry. Tomorrow will be the beginning of yet another month. How time flies? We have been labouring in the mission field for 6 whole years already. Starting July, it would be our Sabbatical year but we will continue to labour on for the Lord, as Jesus says, “I must work the works of Him that sent Me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work” (John 9:4, KJV). Thank God for sustaining us thus far. May the Lord find us faithful till He comes. “Not slothful in business; fervent in spirit; serving the Lord” (Romans 12:11, KJV).

To us, the spiritual health of all the souls under our care, both in the Home and in the Church, is our main concerned. For 6 years, by God’s enablement, we have not shunned to declare the whole counsel of God (Acts 20:27). Thank God for His enablement. We are always thankful to God for the sound teachings that our Alma Mater, the Far Eastern Bible College in Singapore has imparted to us, in preparing and equipping us for the gospel ministry.

“The entrance of thy words giveth light; it giveth understanding unto the simple” (Psalm 119:130, KJV). Thank God also for wisdom to teach His Word without ceasing in our daily family worship, weekly prayer meetings and Sunday services for the past 6 years. As Paul the Apostle says, “Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think any thing as of ourselves; but our sufficiency is of God; Who also hath made us able ministers…” (2 Corinthians 3:5-6, KJV).

The source of our spiritual strength is in non other than our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ Who says, “Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing” (John 15:4-5, KJV). Thank God for empowering us to toil and labour night and day, exhort, comfort and charge every one of them, that they should walk worthy of God, who hath called them unto His kingdom and glory (1 Thess. 2:9,11,12).

Thanks for praying for Nah Yeh. She has given birth to a baby girl named Esther. Both mother and child are fine. Her family has already moved back home to stay. May God preserve them.

“To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven: A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted” (Ecclesiastes 3:1-2, KJV).

For the past few weeks, we had been working hard on the field, ploughing, clearing the bushes, weeding and growing rice and corns for personal consumption. We are reminded that God wants us His children to be diligent in our lives, as the Apostle Paul has commanded in 2 Thessalonians 3:10, “… that if any would not work, neither should he eat.” Thank God for some fellow Christians from Singapore who came over to help us out. Please pray for us, for strength to carry out our daily responsibility faithfully. May the Lord grant us a good harvest in due time, “that every man should eat and drink, and enjoy the good of all his labour, it is the gift of God” (Ecclesiastes 3:13, KJV).
