1st MYPG 08

So the 1st Malaysian Youth Prayer Gathering was a success! Youths from all accross Malaysia gathered in Kluang, Johor for a whole day of prayer, like 8am to 8pm! and prayed for many issues, repentence, prayer for the states, the youths, the nations and for our beloved country Malaysia!

The drive down to Kluang took about 2 and a half hours, thanks to my dad driving down at an average of 160Km/h! we left at like 6.30 in the morning, had breakfast along the way, and still made it by 9am! Kluang was really different than I expected, my first reaction when I first heard Kluang was, "what's a kluang?" then I tried looking for it in a map and couldn't find it! So when we entered Kluang district I was like, "CIVILISATION!!" haha ok sorry I'm mean! but ya Kluang is really developed, I saw a kluang parade mall, the conference was in a nice hotel, and there's kluang rail coffee! not to mention beef balls noodle soup we had for dinner ;)

It was great meeting people I knew from around Malaysia there, some from alor setar, others from east and south (JB) and be able to pray with the youths who were there, they have a really big dream of gathering 100,000 youths in the future to dedicate their lives to missions in a stadium! The organisers are really passionate about seeing this young generation get serious in prayer and commit their lives to seeing their friends saved and believe in transformation in Malaysia. Ps Kenneth Chin gave an awesome message and challenge to the youths to commit their lives to being 'full time' workers in whatever area they will be involved in their career. Indeed the harvest is ripe and there shall be many labourers starting from the youth! The youth leader, Isaac, has a huge heart and vision to see youths from all denominations to gather and just worship God!

It's exciting to see what God's gonna do through the youth in these end times!
Let's look forward together!

God bless!
