A Meeting of Hearts in Taiwan

11 January 2009 — The second week of January saw Kong Hee traveling to Taiwan to minister in three different churches, all of which are affiliated to City Harvest Church (CHC), Singapore.

Together with a small team of translators, the series of meetings were organized by Taipei New Life Church and included visits to Xin Dian Covenant Church and Tainan Bread of Life Church.

During this trip, Kong preached an inspiring message on keeping oneself positive at all times, further illustrating from an experiment on the effects that positive and negative words have in influencing how water crystals are formed in the body. Explaining how a large percentage of the human body is made up of water, Kong showed the congregation how water crystals were beautifully formed when exposed to positive words. The inverse also rang true when the congregation was also shown pictures of misshapen water crystals when exposed to negative words.

Using this vivid illustration to encourage the people to always remain positive, those in attendance were visibly moved and challenged to live a life of faith and positivity.

This was also the first time that Kong preached in the Tainan church where he was warmly welcomed. The senior leadership at this church was greatly impacted when they were in Singapore for the Asia Conference in November 2008. So blessed were they by what they saw that they went back to their home church and totally changed the way they conducted their church services. As a result, when people found out that Kong was scheduled to preach at this church, they came in droves and filled the main auditorium and overflow rooms in no time. The congregation was visibly touched by his ministry and received the Word of God into their hearts with great joy.

Over at New Life Church, where Kong is regarded as an apostolic overseer, the members were extremely excited and sat under a great time of impartation. Kong also spent some time to fellowship with the leaders and other close associates during his visit.

During one service held at Xin Dian Covenant Church, Kong was so moved by one of the worship songs that their worship team composed that he introduced it back in his home church in Singapore. In that same meeting, Kong also prophesied that this worship team would continue to bless Taiwan with even more songs.

On the last day, Kong rounded up his final meeting before heading back to America to see his family.
