From Habakkuk

hey there! well to start,i received something on sunday n i felt led to share it(sorry it took so long=P) i was doing my quiet time with my guide on tat day,i was starting with a new book,Habakkuk.i've never really read this book so i din know what to expect but i knew God was going to amaze me with it somehow,as He always does.if u've read Habakkuk,it talks about Habakkuk's complaints to God and God's answers to them.the part i read tat day was chp1:1-11 where Habakkuk complains about Judah's injustice n then God answers saying He would send the Babylonians to punish them.after reading i started to pray n ask God what He was trying to say through the passage.i felt Him telling me that He is going to do something for our nation,just like in Habakkuk.we wouldn't be crushed by another country like Judah but the change we will go through would be just as hard and painful.this was a confirmation from last month,when i received tat we would go through change but only on sunday did God tell me a little bit more about it.later tat sunday i was praying with my mom,my sis n james about something totally different.we were praying in tongues n suddenly james started to interpret bits n pieces of my tongues.i was praying things like bravery,enable us,we will not perish.i felt it was connected to what i received about Malaysia.later on tuesday i continued to read Habakkuk and i got a confirmation for my tongues in one part of a verse where it says"we will not perish".i also received something new which is from chp2 where God says"the righteous will live by their faith" and i felt it meant tat the righteous will survive because of their faith in God.then i felt God saying,"share with prayer".i haven't exactly grasped the whole meaning of it,all i know is tat it has to come together.well,now tat i've shared,i'd like all of u to also share this after reading it n of course continue praying for Malaysia:
1)pray for this change tat God will prepare us for it
2)pray tat God will be merciful tat our change won't be full of pain n hardships;tat if it does have
to be painful n hard tat it can be overcome with love.
God bless always!

I wanna confirm what you received about change. But for me it has been speaking more of our part. Coming out of "Change Your World" and our most recent LYPG pow-wow, it seems that the Spirit is itching for change but His people are too comfortable with running half the race. As LYPG (KL/PJ) leaders we are humbled that we have lost our radicality -compared to just one year ago - and constant action. If we don't start moving again, we will miss His boat.
