The Supernatural

No worries, no worries....... I'm still the same Joel Yap you all know of. I've not entered to some hocus-pocus sort of things. And not to commemorate the "ghost festival". I can actually just update my blog anytime of the day when I'm with my colleagues since they chat all sorts of things. Coincidentally today they where talking about ghosts, the haunted office and so on. And I just sat there and listen since I've got nothing to add. If there were it won't be quite relevant or some sort. Anyway, my colleagues were talking how their friends "experience" the presence of spirits and how some of them experience themselves when they were working late in the office. Weird sounds, strange happenings. I could just seat there and listen and at the same time thought to myself..... "If they just know God" but then 2 of them proclaim themselves as Christians which in turn if I'm not mistaken they're Catholics who goes to church on Sunday and so on. More like fulfilling a weekly ritual like that. The others are not Christians, which means I got a job to do but so far the time isn't right and I can just be a good testimony for now.

And connecting that incident in today's world, society. To make it a close up, in our circle of friends. Excluding the Christian friends we all go out with, we sure will have non-Christian friends whether we like it or not. That's the fact that we have non-Christian friends SO we can reach out to them. Talking about the supernatural. Which means things that are not natural in our world ie UFO, aliens, ghosts etc. Spirits does exist in case some of you might comfort yourselves saying that there isn't those sort of things. If there isn't spirits that are existent then why do people be possessed? So what is why we as Christian have to know what is around us and to hold fast tot he word of God. And know what to do to sanctify the place in Jesus name. And what power we have through Christ.

As the Bible said "Greater is He that is in me than he who is in the world". So the one who is in the world is just pure weak and will flee in the name of Jesus. But then if we (as Christians) allow ourselves exposed to the spirit world by indulging to witchcraft, sorcery, black magic and so on. Definitely we will be super vulnerable to be taken over by those unwanted things. That is why some Christians get demon possessed. Which is why we should be very careful on what we do and not get ourselves into trouble. So.... If I were to encounter what my colleague encountered, to tell the truth I can be awfully scared but then then if I'm not that superbly stunned till I faint, I will quickly regain my composure and to rebuke those stuff in Jesus name and to nullify and purify the place I'm at in Christ's name. If can perhaps I would just bring olive oil and put some around my office, which I think I have to ask my dad what are the "procedures" at the most I would just pray over the place. It seems easy to say it than do it but well, I have to bear in mind what I ought to do if I ever encounter those things. Since I'm protected by the blood of Jesus that no harm would be upon me.

Guts is needed to do so. Courage is the key to stay strong. as we remain in God, God will remain in us. That's a promise we can be proud of since God will never leave us nor forsake us. In the context we continue to seek Him and not do our own earthly things lah for sure =)
