My Traffic Boost Up By 13 Times Because Of God

And Jesus said to him, “‘If you can’! All things are possible for one who believes.” Mark 9:23 (EST)

Since my walk with God I have been hungry to seek the truth about him and spend now more time for him then anything else. I went through a bible study class at my church at Elim Church and they gave me this wonderful book called “The Purpose Driven Life.”

While I was reading chapter 9, I realized it was important that we know that we lived for God’s purpose not for self gain. He has everything already plan for us from the day we are born to the day we leave this earth to get us ready for eternity.

I used to have goal to by rich to make a million dollars, but having already done that I was not filled even though I achieved it. Than one day I read this verse in the bible it says:

Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven. And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God. — Matthew 19:23-24, Mark 10:23-25

Firstly it does not mean if you are rich you cant go to heaven. But what Jesus mention was it would be hard for rich people to enter into the kingdom of heaven simply because rich people worship money more then God. It was made clear in the bible that we cannot worship both money and god at the same time as stated below:

“No one can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money. — Matthew 6:24

So that’s really something that really shocked me to be honest. I mean who doesn’t want to go to heaven right? So from that day on, I decided my next goal I want to be more humble now. Be a changed man and only do my business for God’s good image not mine. I want to be a proud believer and only boost about him and not about myself making lots of money.

So I make that decision on 1st Feb 2012 to believe in God and to allow him in every situation to work within me to do God’s work in my business.

Just recently on the 11th March 2012, I thought of selling away GatherSuccess.com as I felt I didn’t had any interest in me to continue blogging and wanted to spend more time with God or thought of setting up a separate blog only about God.

So before I making a decision to sell this blog, I login to my Google Analytics and I was shocked to see this.

I thought I was looking at the wrong table, but my blog traffic jumped from 130 visitors daily to a whopping 1,864 per day! I search deeper into the report and realized 90% of the traffic came from direct visiting which means people visited my blog by typing www.GatherSuccess.com on their browsers directly without any other traffic source.

Some how, there were more people recommending my blog by word of mouth and had a huge boost in traffic it’s truly a great miracle.

However, because I was quite bold in talking about Jesus on my blog since 8th Dec 2011 at this blog post. I obviously did not please the satan and he planted some attacks on my blog too by hackers.

My blog was hacked a few days later but it did not stopped me as I quickly restore it back online and continue to blog.

I Decided To Use My Blogging Skills To Help Others

Because of the number of new visitors that I now have on my blog, I decided to share the gospel with others as well and that’s was the reason I wrote my life journey with god on this blog post about “Why We Need Jesus More Than Money”.

Many people around the world read my blog to learn from me to make money. Some even treat me as a mentor and I am glad to be your mentor. If you are not a believer I highly recommend you read this blog post. However right now, I like to ask for people who are believers of Christ to do something in their business that would take great faith to do.

I Like To Challenge Believers To Blog Or Talk About Jesus In Their Business!

As a christian, I knew it’s very hard to talk about a topic that is real sensitive to many people around the world. Here’s some reasons that may relate to you.

- We love to please others then God
- We love to show pride in ourselves then to humble ourselves
- We love money more then God

Honestly, I had these in my mind when I was thinking would it be ok to blog about Christianity on my business blog. If you think about it, it really off topic and weird that a business blogger started talking about Jesus wouldn’t you think so.

So I Just Do It Out Of Faith

I knew it would not be an easy journey and I knew already in my mind I would be attack some how. However, I trusted in God that he will protect me so I just went a head and blog about it.

Why Am I Sharing This With You

To some people who read this blog, you may treat me as a mentor, you may hate me, you may feel I am a cheater, you may like me, you may hate christ for what ever reason and many more…

However I honestly didn’t care what others think, all I wanted to do is to present to you how wonderful our Lord Jesus can be once you put your trust in him and I like to show it to you as I lead as an example by blogging about it.

I can foresee, I may get many attacks along the way. But I am strong in my faith and he who does his word he be well please I like to end of this post with this verse for you:

Am I now trying to win the approval of men, or of God? Or am I trying to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a servant of Christ. — Galatians 1:10 (NIV)

Why We Need Jesus More Than Money

I started blogging when I was young and had great goals in my life. I made a goal to make a million dollars before I reach 30 years old & it all started when I began reading the book on “Rich Dad, Poor Dad”. In this blog post, I would like to share with you my journey how I make a million dollars from blogging and how later it lead me back to God

I done many things in my career and also done many business in my life and always wanted to live a life with nice sports cars, nice house & lots of cash! I mean who wouldn’t want a life like the rich people.

All rich people on earth seems happy, but here’s a quote from the bible that may open up your minds about being a rich person

Matthew 19:21-26
Jesus said to him, “If you wish to be complete, go and sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me.” But when the young man heard this statement, he went away grieving; for he was one who owned much property. And Jesus said to His disciples, “Truly I say to you, it is hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. “Again I say to you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.” When the disciples heard this, they were very astonished and said, “Then who can be saved?” And looking at them Jesus said to them, “With people this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.”

When I read these words as a Christian, it has really woke me up in some sense. Jesus is not saying it’s wrong to be rich but he just saying that it’s would be hard for rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven because human being in general are self-centered and always thinking for themselves only.  So it is important to humble yourself and give what you can to the poor and needy without asking anything in return.

Do take note if you do this, do it to give thanks to our loving God and not ask for anything in return and you will be blessed!

We Are All Sinners We Are Not Perfect So We Need Christ To Forgive Our Sins

When I was young, I didn’t have Christ in me. I started working just like you. Had a job as a IT specialist and someone at my work place invited me to a church. I was not good in mandarin and the church I went was a mandarin speaking church.

During the service, it was all in mandarin and I didn’t really understand much to be honest. However, there was one moment during the service the pastor ask if anyone in the room is willing to receive Christ and ask him to forgive our sins. For some strange reason, I raise my hand and said the sinner’s prayer!

I Wasn’t Really Save Immediately

Many people would think that saying the sinner’s pray would be saved immediately but honestly I didn’t felt I was saved yet but I knew it was my first step in being faithful to God and this step I took was an important step that every sinner should take to have your sins forgiven.

After that, I just went back to what I was working as usual and at that time I was also involved in my own online business doing it part time. At that moment, there was not much follow up with me so I did not think much about the sinner’s prayer that I made.

God Gave Me Skills To Blog & Make Money

When I started GatherSuccess.com, my goal was to share with everyone my experience in making money online and I felt joy when people give me feedback that they love my content and learnt from it and used it to make money from their own blogs.

Because of the many business books that mention it was important to have goals so I written a goal that I wanted to earn a Million dollars before I reach 30 years old.I was real focus on what I love to do at that time and love blogging about how I can help others to make money online and also made good money teaching people as well.

My Blogging Business Began To Make Serious Money

Slowly but surely my blog traffic began to grow and my income that I earning from the blog began to grow too and for the very first time I made US$1,000 just from blogging! It was the best experience I ever had!

During all these time, I wasn’t a faithful Christian and I hardly been to church not more then 10 times through out this period and back-slided really really far as I was so focus on making money then I didn’t give God or Jesus any serious thought about it.

I Thought I Had It All Until One Day Something Really BAD Happened To My Dad

My father was a taxi driver and at that time, he worked really hard to make ends meet. It was really sad that there was one night my father meet into an accident and was in real serious condition and amended to ICU.

Many relatives came that day and during that time I never had God or Jesus in my mind. It was until I had a few relatives who were Christians came to visit my father prayed for him. I saw that and at that time didn’t thought much about it and the only thing that was in my mind at that moment was concerning for my father.

My relatives later left and I remember the doctor telling us my father had a 50:50 chance of living through this. But I was strong I told my mum to believe he will be ok. That night for the 1st time, I suddenly remembered who Jesus was and I pray to him for the 1st time seriously.

I pray to him and ask him “Can you heal my father, I will do anything in my power to believe in you Jesus if you do just that for me.” I cried the whole night being hopeless and did not know what else I can do.

The Next Day A Miracle Happen

My father’s condition started to get better and the doctor even told us he can be discharged from ICU to a normal ward in 3 days. Suddenly at that moment, I remember what happened yesterday and I said to myself it got to be Jesus who help my father.

My father started to get better and it was a miracle, although he had a major head injury on his head and injuried most of his brain he was still able to remember who we were and talk and eat normally. However the only problem was my father had a short term memory problem and also have problems controling his body as he has lost most of the brain juice to function them.

As my father got better, I got back to work and my blog as usual. While I was working I did not forgot what I promise to Jesus and decided to put more time into going church.

I Started Going Churches

I was a real fresh christian back then and I really explored many churches all over Singapore. In fact, I was lost and most times did not felt comfortable is any church that I went as most times I went to Church alone.

There were some Churches that had great follow up sessions with me but some how I did not felt comfortable with them as it seems they just want to be friendly with me for the sake of being friendly I didn’t felt what the bible teaches about “Love Your Neighbor as Yourself”. I felt most of the Christians were not really showing me love and care that I needed.

I Realized The Problem Was

Most of the churches I got invited to were mega churches where there were MANY MANY people. Worst was we did not even have opportunities to even talk to the pastors in the churches most of the time as they were so busy. Because the church was so big I believe the pastor did not even know I was there even

After Months Of Trying I Back Slided Really Far Again The 2nd Time

At that time, my father was doing ok and I was focus on doing my business and have already quit my job to do this blogging full time. Fast forward 5 years later from that moment, I made my 1st million dollars from blogging at age of 29 years old!

More details about my life journey can be found at this blog post here

Life Was Great At First To Make A Million Dollars

So when I managed to earn a million dollars, I was thinking to myself now. So what’s next? Should I make even more? I was not sure. At that time not long ago actually about 10 months ago something really bad happen again.

My Father In Law Got Cancer!

I remember as if it was just yesterday, we went to see the doctor and the doctor reported that my father in law had cancer and it was a STAGE 4 Cancer. Just in case you do not know cancer has 4 stages and 4th stage is the worst among all stages and the chances of living through it is VERY SLIM!

That day, my wife’s family was in shocked and did not know what to say. But some how, I remember Jesus. I told him at the restaurant do you want to be heal? I told him look for Jesus to be heal.

My Journey Back To Christ Began Again After 5 Years As A Back Slided Christian

We started going to church again and pray for healing for my father in law. My father in law went through many many treatments and each treatment I told him to pray for no pain and side effects and true enough there wasn’t any.

My father in law, went through 33 treatments of kimo and I prayed for him almost every day.

During his treatement, I was now more committed to Christ and decided that I am now ready and want to be baptized and reborn again.

On The 28th August 2011 I Was Baptized

That was a joyful day and my wife’s entire family was saved that day. Here’s a link to the video on that day. Do note that it’s a command by God in the bible that to be saved you have to be baptized. Here’s a quote from the bible:

Acts 2:38 “Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.”

Baptized was so important that even Jesus during that time baptized himself to set an example for us to follow

My Father In Law Scan Report The Following Week After Being Baptized

Do take note that my father’s cancer was in STAGE 4 and it was a nose tumor that was 4 cm in size and that’s a big tumor it would take a miracle that this cancer to be healed wouldn’t you think so? The report came and as I had expected, the doctor reported there were now no signs of the cancer anymore however the doctor did mention there was still a white line found that maybe a burn or cancer and the doctor was not sure. But it was confirmed the 4 cm nose tumor was GONE! Hallelujah praise god!

To me I was overjoyed and I believed that the cancer was already gone, however my father in law did not want to think that way and thought the cancer was still around and started to back slide just like me

What’s Happening Now

Just a quick update, my father in law is now healthy and has back slided pretty far and did not believe that Jesus has healed his cancer and believe he done it on his own will. I told him many times it was Jesus who did it but I guest the Satan has managed to tempted my father in law in to thinking other wise I do like to request all christians who are reading this blog post to pray for my father in law his name is “Lim Thian Hup” that he would repent and come back to the lord

My own father just accepted Christ 2 weeks ago and said the sinner’s prayer too and now I am praying for his healing as he still has problems walking and controling his body after that accident. His name is “Phang Yew Fai” and like to ask if you can pray for my father as well

So What Does All These Got To Do With Why We Need Jesus More Then Money?

Firstly I realized all these things that happened to me did not happen for no reason. You would now know I have back slided to far but some how God always loves us and over look us even thought we have so little faith in him.

It was truely a blessing in disguise that my father in law had cancer. If it was not for his illness my wife’s family and I would not have been baptized and saved by the Lord. However I do pray to all whoever is reading this story, will not have to experience such pain in order to receive Christ.

Commom Mistake That Happen To Many Including Me

- We do not realized how important God is until it’s too late

- We only need God’s help when in need

- We favor what others in earth wants more then what God wants from us

- We as Christians as branded as perfect human but in fact, we are not as we are all sinner’s and are not perfect humun that’s why we need Jesus!

- We as Christian are afraid to spread the Gospel because we want to please man not God.

Here’s The Truth

Our God is a great God. He loves you and cares for you that he sacrifice his only son Jesus to die on the cross for our sins so that we can be saved and get access to God through Jesus to forgive our sins

What’s Important In Life

You know there’s a saying that having all the wealth is useless without a healthy body right?

So imagine yourself who has all the wealth in the world! It would be useless to have it all when you do not have a healthly life. Why? It’s simple, you cannot bring along all you have in earth to heaven. So which means all the nice cars , nice houses you own and all the money you have will be useless when it’s time for you to be in heaven.

So what choices you make now is important while you are still alive.

There’s Only One Way To Heaven And That’s Through Jesus

From the bible it says

John 14:6  – Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

So you see the reason why so many Christians are trying to spread the Gospel because we care about you! We want you to know the truth! Jesus taught us to love our neightbours and that’s why I am writing this blog post because I care about you my reader

I realized this truth now and it was because of this truth I decided from now onwards I only live my life for God and not for wealth! I will use my skills to save as many people as I can and help as many people as I can too

I do like to challenge all Christians who read this post, DO NOT BOOST about what you have or what you can do but be humble and only BOOST about our Lord Jesus! Start sharing Jesus with your friends or if you have a blog just like me write about Jesus on your blog as well

God Is Love And He Loves You Too!

We are all made in his image and God loves you even thought you do not really want it or realized it. He over looks everything that you do on earth and protects you but just that you may not have realized it until now

So What Must I Do To Be Save?

I like to invite you to watch this video below and make a discision today!

God knows who you are, He loves you, and He wants you to know and love Him.

How do you do that?

You must first admit that, like everyone else, you are a sinner. Being sinners means that we are imperfect and do wrong; we fall short of God’s perfect standard. It also means we are separated from Him and deserve His judgment.

But He loves us! God sent His own Son, Jesus Christ, to die for our sins. He died for your sins. He was punished so you don’t have to be. Not only that; death did not defeat Him. After three days, Jesus rose from the dead, alive again!

Trusting in Jesus’ sacrifice for you is the only way to find forgiveness from God and to begin a relationship with Him. We urge you to take this step of faith today. To do that, simply talk to God – this is called praying – and tell Him you believe in His Son. We suggest a prayer like this:

“Lord Jesus Christ,

I am sorry for the things I have done wrong in my life. I ask your forgiveness and now turn from everything which I know is wrong. Thank you for dying on the cross for me to set me free from my sins. Please come into my life and fill me with your Holy Spirit and be with me forever.

Thank you Lord Jesus, Amen.”
