Our Willing and Generous Abba God

“He said to them, “Which of you, if you go to a friend at midnight, and tell him, ‘Friend, lend me three loaves of bread, for a friend of mine has come to me from a journey, and I have nothing to set before him,’ and he from within will answer and say, ‘Don’t bother me. The door is now shut, and my children are with me in bed. I can’t get up and give it to you’? I tell you, although he will not rise and give it to him because he is his friend, yet because of his persistence, he will get up and give him as many as he needs.

“I tell you, keep asking, and it will be given you. Keep seeking, and you will find. Keep knocking, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives. He who seeks finds. To him who knocks it will be opened.

“Which of you fathers, if your son asks for bread, will give him a stone? Or if he asks for a fish, he won’t give him a snake instead of a fish, will he? Or if he asks for an egg, he won’t give him a scorpion, will he? If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him?”” (Luke‬ ‭11:5-13‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

Why do we need to be persistent in prayer when God is so willing to give good gifts to us?

God does everything under Heaven according to appointed times and seasons—a system of divine order.

While you are waiting for the time to arrive, He will prepare your heart and mouth to come into alignment with His plans, believing and speaking those things into manifestation.

So we pray persistently not because God is reluctant, but rather we are preparing ourselves for God’s appointed times and seasons.

Keep asking, keep seeking, keep knocking…until the appointed time of deliverance arrives.

“But I’ve been praying for years and nothing has changed!” This statement shows unbelief. Sometimes people pray one thing and confess another. They declare they believe God has healed them but they complain to others how they are feeling so sick and in pain. The apostle James said that a double-minded man who does not ask in faith cannot expect to receive anything from God.

Is the manifestation not here yet? That means the appointed time has not arrived yet, so keep on praying. Abraham was promised a son, but it was only many years later that the fulfillment happened. I am not saying that your manifestation will take years, but there is a right time that only God knows.

In the meantime while you are waiting, meditate on the passage above and get a sense of how generous Abba God is towards you. He loves you and supplies your good heart’s desires through His Spirit.

If an unwilling friend will reluctantly give you what you keep asking for because of your persistence, then all the more Abba God will exceedingly and abundantly answer your prayer requests. Believe this and wait for the appointed time!

Learn how to flow with God’s system of times and seasons by which He plans every purpose under Heaven. You will experience unceasing fruitfulness and restful increase when you apply the revelations in “God’s Appointed Time”:

Remove the Roof

“When he entered again into Capernaum after some days, it was heard that he was in the house. Immediately many were gathered together, so that there was no more room, not even around the door; and he spoke the word to them. Four people came, carrying a paralytic to him. When they could not come near to him for the crowd, they removed the roof where he was. When they had broken it up, they let down the mat that the paralytic was lying on. Jesus, seeing their faith, said to the paralytic, “Son, your sins are forgiven you.” But there were some of the scribes sitting there, and reasoning in their hearts, “Why does this man speak blasphemies like that? Who can forgive sins but God alone?” Immediately Jesus, perceiving in his spirit that they so reasoned within themselves, said to them, “Why do you reason these things in your hearts? Which is easier, to tell the paralytic, ‘Your sins are forgiven;’ or to say, ‘Arise, and take up your bed, and walk?’ But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins”—he said to the paralytic— “I tell you, arise, take up your mat, and go to your house.” He arose, and immediately took up the mat, and went out in front of them all; so that they were all amazed, and glorified God, saying, “We never saw anything like this!”” (Mark‬ ‭2:1-12‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

The Lord brought this miracle to my remembrance and wants to tell us to remove the roof in our minds.

Oftentimes when we are faced with challenges, we only see the impossibilities and limitations.

The paralytic’s four friends saw that the house was so crowded and that there was no way to enter through the front door. Instead of seeing this as an impossible situation, they thought out of the box and removed the roof.

Some of us need to remove the roof from some wrong doctrines that we have been taught in the past that are limiting our ability to receive from God now.

When the four friends lowered the paralytic down into the house, Jesus did not rebuke them or curse the paralytic for removing the roof. Instead, He saw their faith and healed the paralytic.

The religious scribes might have viewed removing the roof as an audacious and preposterous act, but Jesus only saw it as faith.

When you approach God today in prayer, don’t have this sense of fear, as if He will punish you if you say something wrong.

Just believe that He is like Jesus, seeing your faith as you ask Him for big things—even ‘impossible’ things. He loves it when you have faith to receive miraculous breakthroughs from Him!

“Now to him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to him be the glory in the assembly and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen.” (‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭3:20-21‬ ‭WEB‬‬)

Remove the roof in your mind that limits God or makes Him appear stingy and reluctant to help you.

God is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, which means that no matter how big your prayer requests (demands) are, His supply will be much more than you expect.

If He is going to keep exceeding your expectations, then set your sights high. He loves it when you have a good opinion of Him—and that is faith!

I have a new favourite restaurant in town and it’s @osteriabbr at @raffleshotelsingapore! I have been a huge fan of the establishment since they first opened in 2019 and was devastated when they shut their doors due to Covid. Back and stronger than ever, the new Osteria BBR brings you the freshest and the best from the Italian Riviera. Prices are incredibly reasonable, the curated wine list exceedingly impressive, and the food disarmingly delicious. This is one of my favourite dishes - Red Prawn Tartare with fine jelly, buffalo mozzarella and Kristal caviar. I’d recommend the 7-course tasting menu ($108/guest) + wine pairing. The bubbly at Raffles Hotel is always good but the wine that truly blew me away was the Barbera D’Asti. I have to reiterate that Osteria BBR seems to be offering unbeatable value - 2 course lunch : $36, 3 course lunch : $42 (from Monday - Saturday), daily happy hour from 3pm - 8pm, 1/2 dozen oysters + bottle of Prosecco : $88. Prices start at just $28 for pizzas, and $32 for pastas. And here we are talking about a beautiful restaurant by @alainducasse, one of the best chefs in the world, at the iconic and luxurious Raffles Hotel. I still can’t believe my eyes when I look at the prices on the menu.

I don’t know about you, but I know I will be back again, and again, and again. Definitely aiming to try everything on the menu!

This clip is from: Joseph Prince—God Loves To Exceed Your Expectations Toward You (3 Jul 2016) @josephprince

God is a BIG God who loves you lavishly and the clearest way He shows it is the way He exceeds your expectations! When you ask something of Him, He's not one to find the smallest, cheapest, least inconvenient thing to give to you. Instead, He gives you His very best, and answers your prayer exceedingly abundantly above all you can ask or think! (see Eph. 3:20)

Today, if your prayer is to find a life partner, know that God doesn't want you to be with someone who's just "good enough" or "passable." No, friend, He already knows what you need (both now and in the future) and the kind of person who would be best for you to weather the storms of life, celebrate the joys, and do life together with! Trust that He can lead you to find a life partner who is even better than who you imagined yourself with. ✨

And if you're already in a relationship or married, ask the Lord boldly for the kind of relationship you want yours to look like! He will strengthen and sweeten your relationship day by day, causing it to blossom into one that is beyond all you ever dared to ask for or think of! ?

For this episode, we headed back to No Signboard Seafood, this time at the Esplanade, to demolish a $1000 Seafood Mee Goreng Challenge! As a belated birthday treat, Sean has again offered to pay for my meal at No Signboard Seafood, this time only allowing Mee Goreng. Naturally, we loaded up the Mee Goreng with the most delectable toppings that No Signboard Seafood has to offer to push the cost to over $1000, making it possibly the most expensive plate of Mee Goreng ever!

No Signboard Seafood specialises in Chinese cuisine, with a focus on seafood, especially the world-famous Chilli Crab. This particular outlet at Esplanade is unique in that it has some Western cuisine available like Boston Lobster Scrambled Eggs with Caviar and pasta dishes. We had to go with Mee Goreng, which is a Malay-style fried noodle dish with a flexible bunch of proteins and vegetables added, tossed in a sweet and spicy sauce.

For my challenge, I ordered 10 servings of Mee Goreng, 3 Whole Boston Lobsters, a bunch of Scallops, 2 Wagyu Steaks and a large ball of Caviar. The staff masterfully plated this feast onto my giant plate, forming a beautiful array. The mee goreng was sweeter and less spicy than most mee gorengs you would find in Singapore, loaded with tofu and shrimp. It was delicious enough to eat on its own and had a deep wok hei aroma to it. The lobsters were plump and juicy, with the tail meat coming off the shell with almost no resistance. They were expectedly sweet and tender, being freshly cooked from the live lobster tanks on-site.

The scallops were stir-fried in XO sauce, pairing the naturally sweet scallops with the strong umami flavour of the sauce, while the steaks were cooked to medium-rare perfection and rich with a deep “beefy” flavour. Finally, the caviar was a surprising addition to mee goreng, usually eaten on its own or on toast with its rich salty flavour. However, it went exceedingly well with the mee goreng as each sweet and savoury bite of the mee goreng was met with pops of salty explosions, complementing one another rather spectacularly.

This meal was so good that I could hardly call it a challenge and I thankfully enjoyed my birthday dinner. No Signboard Seafood also offers a host of other Chinese-Singaporean cuisine, including crabs cooked in a multitude of ways and many fish options. Do check out No Signboard Seafood for their excellent take on Mee Goreng and their classic dishes!
