What's Your Conviction?

I woke at 9.15am today and the first thing that came to my mind was "go to Glad Tidings PJ". It was a very random thing that God has put into my mind but heck, I went to bath and went there straight.

11am came and I was already seated right in the center of the HUGE hall. Middle row, horizontally and vertically. I sat alone again. As the service went on, I noticed how different GT was. The crowd were older, the lights for P&W are on, even the singers on stage are in coats! Very new, very different indeed than what I usually see in CHCKL.

Pastor Vincent preached about "Thriving in Babylon" in the book of Daniel. Babylon can be our study place, our work place, our church and so on. Definition of thrive is to progress toward or realize a goal despite or because of circumstances. Instead of surviving through the difficult times, we must thrive through it.

But what really caught my attention was when Pastor Vincent spoke about Conviction. When we know our conviction we will not be easily defeated. Like how Daniel,
Hananiah, Mishael and Azariah were true to their conviction and God delivered them. However, we musn't condemn others for their lifestyle and beliefs when we make a stand for ourselves.

Wow..what an empowering message today. Always stay true to your conviction and God will deliver you from it :))

Have a good day tomorrow! xx
