Daniel 2 (KJV)
And in the second year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar Nebuchadnezzar dreamed dreams, wherewith his spirit was troubled, and his sleep brake from him.
Then the king commanded to call the magicians, and the astrologers, and the sorcerers, and the Chaldeans, for to shew the king his dreams. So they came and stood before the king.
And the king said unto them, I have dreamed a dream, and my spirit was troubled to know the dream.
Thank God for gathering us for worship on both Good Friday and Easter Sunday. Our youth choir sang for the first time on Good Friday to the praise and glory of His blessed Name. The hymn was “Jesus Paid It All” with Mrs. Siow conducting and Miss Lois Lek on the keyboard. It was a memorable Good Friday service with Mrs. Ivy Ng–Jamieson joining us for worship after a two-week treatment at the National University Hospital. Thank God for sustaining and keeping her. Praise God also for new visitors including my aunt who came to church for the first time. May the gospel seed sown, take root and bear fruit. All praise and glory to our great God and Saviour Jesus Christ. Amen.

Jesus Christ rose from the dead on the third day after His death on the cross to live forever more. This is our blessed hope. Because Jesus rose from the dead He will also raise all who have died in Christ at His coming. This is the comfort for the bereaved. The separation from our loved ones who have gone before us in the Lord is but temporal. We shall see them again.

Remembering Good Friday
The church remembers the sufferings, crucifixion and death of Jesus Christ on Good Friday. What is the significance? Isaiah 53:6 tell us, “All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.” On the cross, Jesus paid the debt for our sins. As the old saying teaches, “He came to pay a debt He didn’t owe because we owed a debt we couldn’t pay.”
Exodus 40:38 (KJV)
38. For the cloud of the Lord was upon the tabernacle by day, and fire was on it by night, in the sight of all the house of Israel, throughout all their journeys.
