20100722 :My Interesting Bread experiment & Power of Speech - visible and invisible!

24th July 2010

Interesting experiment on these 3 slices of Gardenia bread. Having gone through the recent Quantum Leap seminar by Dr David Van Kovering and having seen some other people using rice as projects, I was motivated to do this experiment myself.

On 12/7/2010 : I started. The first slice was my Blessed Bread, the second in the middle was my Control Bread (which I did not speak to) and the last was my Cursed Bread.

So for the next ten days continuously, faithfully each morning I picked up the Blessed Bread and sang melodiously to it with words such as " I love you, you are good, wonderful, awesome, fantastic, beautiful and I am going to eat you...."

For the Cursed Bread , I used a very harsh tone with words " I hate you, you ugly stupid, idiot nincompoop, useless bump, ugly, smelly..I do not want to eat you..."

I was so so curious over the next few days. Up to Day 9, nothing seemed to happen and I started to wonder if there was so much preservative in that bread! But viola! On Day 10, it happened! I was so pleased and excited with the results! The photo taken was self explanatory!

Lessons learnt from this simple experiment:

1. Power of our Speech

The bible says in

Prov 18:21 "Death and life [are] in the power of the tongue: and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof."

How true this is! The choice is ours to make. James 3:10 says Out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing and cursing. My brethren, these things ought not so to be.

Look at the bread and its effects. Our spoken words and intent of our heart can bring life or death! What would you choose?

2. Invisible vs the visible

There are many things in the world that are currently naked to our human eye. It does not mean that when one cannot see it means it is not there. On the contrary, quantum physics we study today uses such nanotech in space , bioscience, medical science etc.

Romans 1:20

²⁰For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:

Colossians 1:16

¹⁶For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:

My bread experience showed that indeed the invisible part of speech can be translation to manifest visibly itself unto the physical bread. Very clearly seen. Can we seen God? Can we see the electricity? Can we see wind? Obviously not. But by virtue we see the beautiful nature created world, by virtue of seeing our ceiling light and the swaying of the rustling leaves of the trees, or feeling the electrical shock or the wind, we know their existence!

MM Lee of Singapore in today's papers acknowledged that the recent floodings were an act of God that man cannot prevent. So there is a God. Otherwise, insurance companies would not have exclusion clauses to incorporate non payouts that were due to acts of God, wouldn't they?

God is in CONTROL, not man. He is the Creator God eternal.

Reflections

This bread experience is indeed an eye opener for me to the world of the invisible. Col 1:¹⁷And he is before all things, and by him all things consist. The spiritual world to many is the unseen world, mystical to some, mystery to others.

Is there really a God out there? When we pray - do we understand what we are doing? Buddhist prays, Muslims prays. Hindus prays. So do we. But Jesus, the Son of the living God who came to this world about 2000 years ago, is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature. He has delivered us from the power of darkness and translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son, in whom we have redemption through his blood and even the forgiveness of sins.

Jesus, He died for me and you. We are redeemed. Nothing is free .It cost him His life. But yet He rose again against all odds as a living proof of eternity, conquering death. My breath is held by Him. My heart beats because He gave me that every beat of my heart. This world is not mine. I am merely a pilgrim on this journey of life. Faith and hope and love. The greatest of these 3? Love. God is love. Love cannot be seen. But it can be felt as visible expression. That first piece of bread had my love but not the cursed rejected one. Simple rule - LOVE. The world needs it badly. Give your loved ones your bread of love today! Yeah Yeah!

8/7/2010:Quantum leap and Rainbow

May you be encouraged with this "lower bandwidth" rainbow as we now know due to the fallen world ...Attended this Quantum Leap conference by Dr David Van Koeveruing .This was taken on Day 2 - 8/7/2010. I walked home from church and had this little drizzle coming down at me. SMSed to my hubby to pray that it would not rain as we would suppose to have tennis at 7pm. As I got home, I thought the conditions were right for a rainbow sighting. So out went I to the usual home balcony, but could not see one about about 6:15pm? Quiff feeling? Ha Ha. But a little disappointed not seeing one.

To my amazement, as we got down to the courts at 7:10, there the rainbow stood. My heart took not just a leap of joy but rather a "quantum leap" of joy! And of course, God answered our prayers - there was no rain and so we had our tennis! Best of all, He gave me this rainbow knowing I was 'looking for it earlier at the balcony" Ha Ha Ha!I think when we really get to heaven, yes - indeed the colours would be exceeding this 7 colours. More radiant as we would be in that upper bandwidth by then.To me, this rainbow is yet again a reminder of our Father's covnenantal love for us. 7 - perfect number. Rainbows always fill my heart with joy and anticipation. (like William Shakespeare quoted : My heart leaps for joy when I behold a rainbow" Are you numb to rainbow sightings? May be to some, you might say "So what?"..But to me , each time I see a rainbow, I thought it was my angel who painted it for me!

For all that quantum physics & periodic elements table memories that were brought to my mind in those school days during these past 3 days , it is a better appreciation of what science and the bible is all about. Science today will continue to confirm what the Word of God says. Our human mind is too minute to understand His ways. His awesome creative power. Now beginning to appreciate the difference in the Gen 1:3 when He said "let there be light" and the other formation of the 2 great lights that followed in v14...Col 1:15 for by him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible...all things were created by him and for him. V17 He is before all things and in him all things hold together. Well well..Jesus Himself declared " I am the light of the world..".those electrons are paired together indeed. One affect the other in the unseen world - thanks to Science and today's technological advancement.

May we all take that quantum leap of faith. Faith in Hebrews 11 is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. V3 says that by faith we understand that the universe was formed at God's command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible.

Now Genesis, in the beginning makes more sense, isn't it?

Light and waves. Photons, electrons, atoms, sub-atoms..all this thing called nanotechnology...I do not understand what was that periodic table of elements was during schooldays. All I remembered was that we were told to memorise those numbers, short names and even their atomic mass! And our human body is made up of about 93% of oxygen, carbon and hydrogen! Interesting. Those invisible qualities now more quantifiable through scientific breakthroughs!

Think about it - how in the world can that little CD or DVD play back those music and videos?? Ever wondered about those devices and the inventors behind such things? Today we have medical breakthroughs of nano inputs that can kill only cancer cells and not the good cells. That's how precise it is!

May rainbows colour our life in this world. We are alive because Jesus has not done with us yet. We love because He first loved us. And hope in Christ will never disappoint. We have got a home in gloryland that outshines the sun. Times may be tough on earth but behind each rain, we can catch that rainbow of hope when the Son shines through!

We need Him indeed to hold us together. Only in HIM can we have our being. Do you have Him ?

1/7/2010: Munich Journey - Lost and found

Came back from Munich on 1/7/2010. The photo is taken from one of the mountains in Munich - the Bavarian Alps behind.

What did I learn from this trip? Well, the photo showed a winding road through the mountains.

Isaiah 2:2 In the last days the mountain of the LORD's temple will be established as chief among the mountains; it will be raised above the hills and all nations will stream to it. V3 Many people will come and say "Come and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD and to the house of the God of Jacob. He will teach us his ways so that we may walk in his paths" The law will go out from Zion, the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.

Before we left for Munich , Germany - many things happened. Health issues, car refused to start on the night of our travel, almost missed the flight due to the error in the timing shown on our travel ticket, being picked up by the airport buggy as we were the last 2 to board the plane...and most memorable of all....John's backpack with his PC, camera and passport were accidentally left on one of the benches inside the Munich airport upon arrival. Can you imagine travelling in the cab for 40km to the hotel and then realise the horror of a missing precious bagpack? Prayed and sent sms to some friends and loved ones to pray on our way back to the airport to look for it.

Well, the Lord showed Himself faithful and true and gracious and merciful...the little bagpack was left sitting at the bench for an hour without anyone stealing it! Ha Ha Ha! What a joy of having been found! Indescribable.

God is great all the time! He is omnipresent, omniscient and omnipotent. His angelic host guards His precious ones.
May we all indeed marvel at His Holy mountain and continue to walk in His ways...Our life journey is like this winding road in the mountains. For every twist and turns, He is always there for us!
