“The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send
out workers into his harvest field.” – Matthew 9:37-38

“Lord, wherever you want me to go, I will go. Whatever you want me to do, have me do it.”

This has been a prayer on my heart for the past few years, and I believe the Lord has answered – the Lord answers our own prayers sometimes through ourselves.

I am a young man who came from Hong Kong when I was a child, brought up in a Christian family, and became certain in my faith at NextGen conference – through a sermon on Romans 8. I became convinced during my university days that the world needs to hear the gospel of Jesus. 2 billion are unreached with the Bible or churches or Christians around them in this world. The vision is always Revelation 7 – when people from every nation, tribe, people and language will worship our God before His throne. If the Lord shall use me in any way to bring that about, I pray that His will be done.

Prayer Points

1. Firstly, pray for my godliness and holiness. Transitioning to ministry full-time will certainly expose my sins and selfishness. Pray for humility before God and others, and daily repentance and faith.
2. Pray for God to reveal to me what he wants me to do for the rest of my life – giving more clarity to my gifts, passions, and strengths
3. Pray for God to teach me many practical ministry skills and competencies like pastoral care, preaching, big-picture vision, and cross-cultural ministry
4. Pray God will sustain me and my family as I undertake this apprenticeship over the next 2 years.
