A stab from on the Back - One Million illegal Immigrants holding valid Mykad
A Kadazan Muslim from Kundasang, a small town at the foot of Mt. Kinabalu, Sabah, Malaysia Borneo, had this to share:
UMNO who controls the majority seats in the BN is, as far as the Kadazan (Dusun), who had spearheaded the formation of Malaysia under Donald Stephens aka Tun Fuad, irrespective of what religion or belief systems he or she belongs to, is a TRAITOR who stabs us from the back.
He is referring to what we locals know as an open secret where UMNO had employed the dirtiest, deadliest and most dangerous strategy to make itself stay in power by giving the right to vote, besides being the status of first class bumiputra, to illegals immigrants by issuing them valid Malaysian Identity Cards known as Mykad. This is equivalent of giving the enemies guns to shoot you. This is the work of 'demon possessed and mad men and women' who are bent to do the will of the devil.
Pray that:
- Adonai Yeshua HaMashiach sends His Archangel Michael and binds these spirits of deception, fear, murder, lies, greed, cowardice, craze for power and racial hatred;
- A divine anger will arise among God fearing Malaysians and peace loving world leaders and will be led by the Ruach Kodesh to do what is necessary and bring glory to YHVH ELOHIM to end this betrayal of the people of Sabah and Sarawak especially to the believers and followers of Yeshua HaMashiach.
- A peaceful General Election.

HARVEST FESTIVALS - Kokotuan, Kaamatan and Pongupuan
 |

Based on the command of YHVH ELOHIM to His people, they must gather and celebrate at least three times in a year.
Deuteronomy 16:16 "Three times a year all your males shall appear before the LORD your God in the place which He chooses at the Feast of Unleavened Bread, at the Feast of Weeks, and at the Feast of Tabernacles…”(Also see Exodus 23:14)
Attendance was so vital that at least all heads of house (males) were ordered to appear at whatever locale God determined for the full length of each ‘feast’. Among the ‘churches’ today that ‘keep’ these feasts of God, few, if any, uphold the God ordained ‘summons’ to fully attend each.
Among the Kadazans, known to many as Jesus People, it has been a tradition and customary practices that had been embedded into their culture to celebrate harvest festival as a thanksgiving to Kinoingan for a bountiful harvest. This was practiced among them even before they were colonized by the British and those before them i.e. Sultan of Brunei and Sultan of Sulu.
Based on their genesis story, Kinoingan or Kinorohingan (tindal) (which means a name above all names or the Ancient One) gave His only daughter (in some version Son) as a sacrifice to save His children (Kadazan - which means 'being who has His breath (ka)) from hunger from a famine arising from a poor harvest.

A CALL TO PRAYER FOR THE CHURCH & OUR NATION MALAYSIA
**********
**********
INTRODUCTION
As Christians and Gods people in Malaysia,
We are called to pray for our beloved country so that Habakkuks vision, For the earth will be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD, as the waters cover the sea (Habakkuk 2:14), will be fulfilled in our land.
As Christians and Gods people in Malaysia,
We believe that Gods message to His people through Jeremiah, Seek the welfare of the city where I have sent you and pray to the LORD on its behalf, for in its welfare you will find your welfare (Jeremiah 29:7), is also His word for us today.
I. THE CHURCHHOLY, REVIVED & VIBRANT
1. Humbling Ourselves to Seek God in Prayer
In Acts 1 we read of how a ten-day prayer meeting preceded the release of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost. Similarly, earnest and persistent prayer led to great revivals which had lasting and world-changing effects. These include the Moravian Revival (1727), the Great Awakening in America (18th century), the Welsh Revival (1904), the Azusa Street Revival (1906) and the Korean Revival (1907).
Closer to home, the several waves of revival experienced by the SIB have often been preceded and sustained by prevailing prayer and holy living. This has resulted in SIB being the fastest growing church in the country in the last few decades, with whole tribal communities being holistically transformed along the way.
a. Pray that the Malaysian church will seek the face of God together earnestly and with perseverance, so that He will open the heavens, reveal His glory and pour His power upon our nation. Let us claim His promise that if my people humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land (2 Chronicles 7:14).
2. Emphasising Holiness and Righteousness in the Church
The Malaysian church can only be a prophetic community, impacting society, when we live authentic and vibrant Christian lives. Only then the church can act and speak with credibility and moral authority, and be taken seriously by the world.
a. Pray that pastors, church leaders and members will strive to live godly lives at home, in church, and in the market place and the public square.
b. Pray that every church will provide systematic teaching on holy living from the pulpit, in our small groups, and at every level of church ministry.
3. Fostering Church Unity and the Ministry Of Reconciliation
We live in a society where ethnic tensions and divisions have deteriorated badly. But for the church, God has already brought peace and unity through the cross (Ephesians 2:14ff).
a. Pray that Christians will make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit, embracing reconciliation within the Christian community.
b. Pray that as Christian leaders, local churches and whole denominations learn to live in unity, through forgiveness and reconciliation, we will model ethnic reconciliation powerfully in our nation.
4. Teaching Christians the Cost of Discipleship
We must be intentional in teaching that Jesus taught clearly that there is always a cost in following him as true disciples (Luke 9:23). One consequence of our failure here has been the mass exodus of Christians leaving the country through emigration, which has weakened both the church in Malaysia and our contribution to nation-building.
a. Pray that Christians will understand what true discipleship means, and be willing to take up their cross daily and suffer for Christ.
b. Pray that many Christian professionals and countless university students studying abroad will return with a clear vision to build both the church and nation.
c. Pray that Christian parents will encourage their children to come home or to remain in Malaysia to serve God here.
5. Developing Godly Leadership for Our Churches
There is a great need in our time for godly leaders who model Christ-like servanthood. Further, as Paul advised Timothy, what you have heard from me entrust to faithful men who will be able to teach others as well (2 Timothy 2:2), we must intentionally disciple younger leaders.
a. Pray that church leaders, both pastoral and lay, will grow in depth and maturity as true shepherds of Christ. Pray that they will have a real hunger for Gods Word, a firm commitment to Gods truth and to live by it, and the courage to teach the same to their flocks.
b. Pray that the present generation of leaders will strive to lay strong foundations for churches and Christian organizations in our country, to model godly and humble servanthood, and to manage succession plans well, as they gradually hand over the baton of leadership to younger people.
6. Empowering Bumiputra Churches, Especially Those in East Malaysia
Based on Government Census of 2001, Bumiputras form some 60\% of the Malaysian church. Their churches lack financial resources and are often weak due to insufficient teaching material. They have also been a major target of certain parties seeking to draw their members away. Many of the children and youths have been converted away from their Christian faith and heritage.
a. Pray for the increasing availability of both the Bible and discipleship materials in Bahasa Malaysia.
b. Pray for a growing and effective partnership in ministry and mission between the churches in West Malaysia and in East Malaysia.
c. Pray for the increasing emergence of strong churches among Bumiputra communities in our land, and the rising up of bold and God-fearing leaders among them.
II. THE ECONOMYSTRONG & GROWING, WITH A FAIR SHARE FOR ALL
7. Being Salt and Light in Our Nation
The church cannot remain silent, neutral or unmoved by the vital issues confronting us in our countrys economic development, especially if we are to fulfil our calling to seek the welfare (Jeremiah 29:7) of this nation.
a. Pray that God will continue to bless our nation with strong and steady growth of the national economy so that all citizens will be blessed. Pray for the equitable sharing of the wealth of this nation among all races.
b. Pray against the twin problems of badly formulated policies and prevalent corruption, both of which combine to adversely affect national economic growth.
c. Pray that the smaller and economically weaker communities will not be marginalised. In particular, pray that the rights and means of livelihood of the native people of Sabah and Sarawak, and the Orang Asli in West Malaysia will be legally recognised and safe-guarded, especially their land rights.
d. Pray that the church will take the lead in reaching out with concrete acts of love and compassion to the poor, including refugees and migrant workers, regardless of race or religion.
III. POLITICS AND THE GOVERNMENT: STABLE, CLEAN, DEMOCRATIC & JUST
8. Defending the Supremacy of the Federal Constitution and Fundamental Human Liberties
The defence of the supremacy of our Federal Constitution, fundamental human liberties, the principles of democracy and the rule of law in our country has now become increasingly critical. This is because of repeated and continuing efforts to undermine them, in particular, through certain Islamisation policies, which effectively marginalise believers of other faiths.
a. Pray that the church, civil society and the rakyat in general will defend the Federal Constitution so that fundamental liberties of all citizens, especially religious freedom, will be upheld.
b. Pray that the government will genuinely seek to uphold the principle of equal citizenship rights for all Malaysians, which had been forged originally against a diverse background of race, religion and culture. Pray against all efforts made at asserting ethnic and religious supremacy which, if unchecked, will destroy the foundations of our nation.
c. Pray that the democratic processes and institutions will mature and, if necessary, be revitalised in our country, especially the Parliament, State Assemblies, the Judiciary and the Civil Service.
9. Electing Politicians Who Are Competent and Genuine, and Committed to Integrity and Justice
Whilst the church does not identify herself with any particular political group, all Christians have a responsibility in a democracy to elect candidates who are competent and sincere in serving the rakyat, and who are noted for their integrity and commitment to justice.
a. Pray that our citizens will have the discernment and wisdom to elect sincere and politically competent leaders who will govern the nation with compassion, integrity, righteousness and justice.
b. Pray that Christians will take their responsibility as voters seriously and do what is right.
c. Pray that in the up-coming Sarawak State Elections on 16 April, and the General Elections which may follow shortly, that God will so overrule that governments which will be faithful to the mandate to rule for the good of the nation will come into power. Pray specially against the work of unseen spiritual powers that seek to keep the nation under their control through evil of all kinds.
10. Making Malaysia a Model Nation
The Malaysian church has an unprecedented opportunity in our generation to be used by God to bring about a powerful transformation which will result in blessings for all the peoples of our land.
a. Pray that Malaysia, by Gods grace, will develop into an advanced economy and a stable and harmonious democracy, in which all citizens are equal, with fundamental liberties protected by the Constitution and a legal framework which protect the weakest and the least. This will make Malaysia a model nation for others.
**********
CONCLUSION
As Christians and Gods people in Malaysia, we live, pray and labour in hope to be a blessing to our country!
For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and future (Jeremiah 29:11).

Divine intervention or just a mere chance -part One

The recent landslide in Kiau Taburi, Kota Belud, at the foot hills of the Majestic Mt. Kinabalu had made many homeless and though no lives had perished, it was indeed a major event, whether it is a divine intervention or just mere chance, that should serve as a wake up call for many.
The 3,000 residents of Kiau Taburi are mostly devoted Christians mainly from the SIB protestant Church who were probably among those who experienced spiritual revivals in the early seventies in Taginabur Kota Belud, at least their parents, uncles or aunties.
One of those who experienced a personal visitation from Yeshua HaMashiach is Evangelist Brani Duyon, a local Kadazan of the Liwan-Tindal (tagged by the Colonialist as Dusun) who was taken to Heaven and sent back to Earth to deliver 6 messages.
Of late, many of the Churches in Sabah had back-sliden and its pastors lost their 'first love' and many had left their calling for greener pastures in the cities and secular jobs that pays good money.
Tetapi sebelum kembali, Yesus memberikan saya beberapa pesan dan menyuruh saya untuk memberitahu pesan ini kepada semua anak-anak Tuhan di Bumi. “Pesan ini SANGAT PENTING untuk mereka ketahui” tegas Yesus. Kemudian Yesus katakan lagi, bahawa saya akan sibuk untuk bekerja bagi Dia untuk menyampaikan pesan penting ini. Saya juga diminta- Nya untuk menyampaikan segala sesuatu pengalaman saya kepada semua anak Tuhan, supaya mereka juga diberkati dan mendapat kekuatan baru mengikut Yesus. Kata Yesus, “apabila engkau kembali kembali ke Bumi beritahu kepada semua anak-anak Ku pesan ini” (Ada ENAM PESAN yang Tuhan Yesus telah berikan kepada saya.) Pesanan ini adalah seperti berikut:-
PESAN PERTAMA : “Beritahu anak-anak Ku, hendaklah mereka percaya sungguh-sungguh dengan segenap hati, segenap kekuatan dan segenap akal budi. Orang yang bimbang dan ragu langsung tidak sampai ke sini (syurga).” kata Tuhan Yesus
PESAN KEDUA: “Beritahu anak-anak Ku,hendaklah mereka setia datang dalam kebaktian kerana di situlah Aku akan menyinari wajah mereka dan di situlah mereka akan mencari wajah Ku. Hati ku sangat gembira melihat anak-anak Ku, berada dalam gereja pada waktu kebaktian.” kata Tuhan Yesus
PESAN KETIGA: “Beritahu anak-anak Ku, hendaklah mereka setia berdoa, setia melakukan perintah-perintah Ku dan tinggal tetap dalam Firman Ku.” kata Tuhan Yesus
PESAN KEEMPAT: “Beritahu anak-anak Ku, hendaklah mereka setia memberi Persepuluhan dan memberi Persembahan Khusus.” kata Tuhan Yesus Pada ketika Tuhan Yesus menyebutkan Pesan Keempat ini, Dia berkata “Anak Ku, lihat di sana,” Dia menunjukkan kepada saya Rumah- Rumah yang sungguh cantik yang sudah siap bagi anak-anak-Nya. “Anak Ku, rumah-rumah ini Aku sediakan bagi semua Anak-Anak Ku yang percaya dan taat kepada Ku”, Kemudian Yesus menunjukkan saya rumah-rumah yang belum siap dan belum lengkap. Saya bertanya “Tuhan, kenapa banyak rumah-rumah di sini yang belum siap?” Yesus menjawab “Anak Ku, rumah ini adalah kepunyaan Anak Ku yang berat tangan memberi Wang Perpuluhan dan Wang Persembahan. Namun rumah ini hanya akan siap apabila mereka sedia memberi lebih lagi Perpuluhan dan Persembahan di dalam Rumah Ku.” kata Tuhan Yesus
PESAN KELIMA: “Beritahu anak-anak Ku, hendaklah mereka menyerahkan kepada Ku dalam doa semua harta-harta, keberadaan mereka sewaktu hidup di Bumi supaya Aku melindunginya dan memberkatinya. Ini adalah kerana apabila Aku datang ke-dua kali nanti janganlah mereka terikat dengan kekayaan di dunia. Ingat apa yang terjadi dengan Isteri Lot.” kata Tuhan Yesus.
PESAN KEENAM: “Beritahu anak-anak Ku, hendaklah mereka berjaga-jaga dan bersedia kerana Aku akan datang SEGERA. Cepat dari yang disangkakan!.” kata Tuhan Yesus( Kedatangan Tuhan Yesus tidak diketahui, tetapi Pengangkatan pasti akan terjadi. Tuhan Yesus akan datang tidak lama lagi!!!)
