Fruitfulness Requirement: Water
In God’s design, a requirement for growth and fruitfulness in the seed world is the need for water. Water is an essential ingredient to a seed’s maturity and fruitfulness. A cute little kids science video explains it better than I: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8kTt4xHHLzk&ab_channel=SciShowKids The conclusion: seeds with no water, didn’t grow at all! No chance it would reach a state of maturity, absolutely no chance it would reach a state of fruitfulness. But my delight is in the law of the Lord, and…

Fruitfulness: Dr. Siang Yang Tan
What an amazing weekend. We had a packed weekend with Dr. Siang Yang doing a training on Saturday and speaking at our Sunday Celebration. If you missed it, here are the links:Saturday Training: Session 1 – https://youtu.be/yLso2ENk3U8, Session 2 – https://youtu.be/N29qtxta_uM Sunday Celebration: https://youtube.com/live/_4D_Ey21hg8 There was so much to digest in Dr. Siang Yang’s training that I am sure, for those who attended, you are still thinking and wrestling through much of what was taught. In all the lessons, words…

Fruitfulness Requirement: Seeds Need to be Planted
A seed can only become fruitful when it is placed in the right environment. The seed carries the purpose, potential, and fruit within – but it is the environment that activates that seed to be all that it is called to be. When we look at the creation of the world and man, we see that God was very intentional about creating the environment before creating the product (Genesis 1). Before God created the fish of the seas, He created…

Fruitfulness – Seeds
Then God said, “Let the land produce vegetation: seed-bearing plants and trees on the land that bear fruit with seed in it, according to their various kinds.” And it was so. 12 The land produced vegetation: plants bearing seed according to their kinds and trees bearing fruit with seed in it according to their kinds. And God saw that it was good. – Genesis 1:11-12 These words are found in the formation and foundation of the earth. God spoke these words not as random…

Fruitfulness: The Antidote to Worry? Prayer
As we have learned over the past couple of weeks, the antidote to the worries of this life is prayer. Prayer seems to be the answer to all things and God, in His wisdom, teaches us how to pray: Our Father in heaven, Hallowed be Your name.Your kingdom come.Your will be doneOn earth as it is in heaven.3 Give us today our daily bread.4 And forgive us our debts,as we also have forgiven our debtors.And lead us not into temptation,But deliver us from the evil one.” For…

Worries Of This Life
As we have learned and continue to learn, one of the main killers of fruitfulness is the “worries of this life”. It is what Jesus calls one of the “thorns” in the parable of the seeds and a thorn that causes growing and mature seeds to become fruitless. As the family of Lifespring, we recognize that God is asking us to not just be mature, but to be fruitful. Therefore, we need to be on guard to fight against anything…

Extraordinary
We had the amazing privilege to hear from Aunty Patricia Koh this past Sunday. She spoke on the story of Esther and how God uses the ordinary to do the extraordinary. There were so many gems that Aunty Patricia gave us and amazing lessons – but I want to share a testimony that highlighted what she spoke on. After our Sunday celebration, we had a leadership meeting upstairs in the fireside room. In the middle of the meeting, a gentleman…

Fresh Breath
We had an amazing privilege to hear from Gma Donna this past Sunday. As always, she brought so much depth that it will take time to unpack all that she brought to the Lifespring family. One of the gems that jumped out to me was she recognized a spirit that is working against the saints worldwide. Similar to how Jesus was able to recognize spirits and deal with them directly, Donna’s travels and discernment have helped her recognize spirits that…

Role Models
This past Sunday we had the amazing privilege of hearing a testimony from Alvin Koh, Steven Tse, and a message from our dear Grandpa Perry. Please take a moment to listen to them – you will be blessed! As Grandpa Perry was sharing his words of wisdom from his experience, I couldn’t help but think back of all the people that have made an impact in my own life. As a young man, I was trying to discover who I…

Volunteer Appreciation
To the Lifespring family – you are all amazing. From the pastoral team – we thank you and love you all so much. I wanted to simply give a short word of encouragement to this church family. Ever since Adrian and Pastor Alvin have showed us what it means to walk in transparency – revealing our weaknesses so that God can be glorified – it has truly been an amazing journey to see God work through the lives of the…

Purpose 2025: Fruitfulness (Lifespring Family – Missions & Hope)
On September 12, 2021 a group from GAIN Canada came and spoke about raising funds for water wells around the world. They flashed a slide that went by quite quickly, but there was a slide that God highlighted to me and disturbed me for weeks. The following information was on that slide: Life is lost because of a lack of water. There are people all around the world who are desperate for water. I was reading 2 Corinthians 1 at…

Deceitfulness Of Wealth
Rich Young Ruler 17 As Jesus started on his way, a man ran up to him and fell on his knees before him. “Good teacher,” he asked, “what must I do to inherit eternal life?” 18 “Why do you call me good?” Jesus answered. “No one is good—except God alone. 19 You know the commandments: ‘You shall not murder, you shall not commit adultery, you shall not steal, you shall not give false testimony, you shall not defraud, honor your father and mother.’” 20 “Teacher,” he declared, “all…
