Ah Hui's Dad

This morning at the church, I was told Ah Hui's dad had passed away last night. I knew he had been suffering from cancer for quite a while. But the most pressing question in my heart was: "Was he saved?" When my sister told me Ah Hui's dad had received Jesus as his personal LORD & Saviour JUST last week - my heart sang PRAISES to the LORD for His faithfulness.


Though I don't really know anyone from Ah Hui's family, I do know NONE of them know the LORD. Ah Hui herself is a young Christian. Mom used to worry about David having a "nonbeliever" girlfriend. So we prayed for her conversion and shortly after, she accepted Jesus! She is a testimony to the LORD's grace & mercy.


So Ah Hui is the FIRST Christian in her family. After Pastor Ivan (JB) came to minister at our church, I believe Ah Hui & David were both baptised in the Holy Spirit then as they started to have the boldness to share the gospel with Ah Hui's dad.


Combined with the prayers by Ah Hui & David's care group last Wed, Ah Hui's dad accepted the LORD last Thurs! Hallelujah! And I heard he had often requested David to pray for him in the hospital. And I heard David even prayed an ENTIRE night once for him! And my sister testified that Ah Hui's dad was in such peace for the past week. WHAT a testimony!


Bible says:

The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance.
(2Pe 3:9)

The devil's hold over this family was broken once Ah Hui became a believer, purchased by the blood of Jesus. All of them were destined for hell once. And all of them deserved going to hell. But Bible says:

"For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.
(Joh 3:16)

Praise God for His grace & mercy. God has made the Salvation of our soul SO EASY! Yet so many of us are so stiff necked & hard hearted. So many would rather trust in their own self-righteousness manifested in the hundreds & thousands of the various forms of religions in the world.

Then his servants came near and spoke to him and said, "My father, had the prophet told you to do some great thing, would you not have done it? How much more then, when he says to you, 'Wash, and be clean'?"
(2Ki 5:13)

God has paid the FULL price for us to go to heaven thru the Cross. Jesus has taken ALL our sins and given us His righteousness. U don't need to slay that dragon in a far away land. U don't need to climb the highest mountain. U don't need to fast 40 years. U don't need to pay USD40 million. All that is required of us is to BELIEVE!!!

that if you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved;
(Rom 10:9)

And for Ah Hui, the salvation of her ENTIRE family is already settled by God's Word:

They said, "Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household."
(Act 16:31)
