Pastor Benjamin Chew http://revivalgen.multiply.com/   About Benjamin and Lillian Chew   <A href="http://s307.photobucket.com/albums/nn310/kairos_hour/?action=view&current=Ben_and_Lillian.jpg" target=_blank><IMG alt=Photobucket src="http://i307.photobucket.com/albums/nn310/kairos_hour/Ben_and_Lillian.jpg" border=0></A>   Pastor Benjamin accepted Christ when he was 17. Due to his background of Taoism and Buddhism, he went through three months of deliverance ministry and many demons were cast out of him. He was set free from many demonic bondages in his life.    After experiencing a new found freedom in Christ, Benjamin surrendered his life to the Lord asking Him to use him as His servant . Soon after, Benjamin recieved God's call to preach the gospel. Convinced that his own family must first be saved, he started to pray fervently for his parent's salvation. Within a month his parents were saved. At the same time, he started preaching to his friends in school, holding evangelistic meetings in homes. During that period he saw his friends coming to Christ. In the following years, many of his relatives came to the Lord including his maternal grandmother.    In 1994, Benjamin got married to Lillian and they embarked on an adventure with God. That year they set off to East Malaysia to minister in the interior of Sabah. For three months they ministered to the churches in the villages and encountered the supernatural workings of God. It was there in Sabah, while seeking the Lord for directions that both Benjamin and Lillian felt that they needed formal theological training. They returned to Singapore and enrolled in Bethany School of Missions. After obtaining a certificate in Intercultural Studies, they furthered their studies in Theological Centre for Asia. In 1998 after graduating from bible school, Benjamin and Lillian pioneered a youth ministry which today is known as Revival Generation (Revival Centre Church)   Benjamin and Lillian believe that God is raising up a generation of youths who will bring revival fires to the end of the earth and his vision is to reach a lost generation, rescue the oppressed and to revive the church through the power of the Holy Spirit. In May 2008, Benjamin stepped out from full time pastoral minstry to pursue the call of God in his life. Together with Liliian, He operates as an Itinerant Evangelist under the coverring of Cornerstone Community Church Singapore.

Pastor Daniel set the tone for the encounter retreat by giving an excellent introductory message. During the morning and afternoon sessions, topics like Deliverance, Father Heart of God, Spiritual Warfare and the Believer's authority was taught. It was awesome to see the Holy Spirit working deeper during the course of the retreat. Bondages were broken, hurts were healed and it was really awesome to see the countenance of the kids changing as they encounter God's presence and understand the Father's Heart. On the last night session, it seems like Heaven broke lose...During worship the presence of God was so thick. Preaching was hilarious...i started laughing at my own jokes! Altar and ministry was powerful. Kids were set on fire by God, one told me he was caught into a vision..others received breakthroughs. Newson and Jason, both generation leaders were casting out demons...Kid were just crying and soaking in the glor... http://revivalgen.multiply.com/journal/item/46/Generations_Encounter_Retreat Sun, 15 Jun 2008 15:59:23 -0000 Ministry update Sorry for not updating on our ministry the last two weeks....ministry has been intensive and thank God He has been sustaining us as we minister at different churches. In the beginning of June we ministered at the youth services of Bethany Church. The youth pastor is Pastor Omar. The services went well and in the second service in particular, which consist mostly of young adults there was a great stirring of the Spirit.  The youth service at Centre of New Life was phenomenal. There was such an unction that was upon me as I preached the message. I really enjoyed myself preaching to this bunch of youths and at the altar they were just so hungry for the Lord...repenting, crying, falling under the power of God. Next was the Generation Zone Two camp held at Fairy Point Chalet. There were about 50 campers and they were led by Cameron and Delia. Wow the two nights I had with them was real cool. The Lord was just dropping revelations upon revelations as I ministered the word of God.... http://revivalgen.multiply.com/journal/item/45/Ministry_update Thu, 12 Jun 2008 15:33:57 -0000 Zion Fellowship International http://revivalgen.multiply.com/links/item/7/Zion_Fellowship_International Sat, 31 May 2008 04:59:42 -0000 Statement of Faith Cornerstone Community Church Singapore which covers my ministry is under Zion Fellowship International. I embrace fully the Statement of Faith of Zion Fellowship International. Statement of Faith Zion Fellowship International's Statement of Faith expresses its basic tenets and beliefs, which are as follows: We believe there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, who is the Maker and Preserver of all things visible and invisible.

Students from different schools are coming for this camp and the purpose is to get them ignited so that they will bring the gospel back to their schools. We really desire to see these young people catch the fire and bring revival to their schools and their churches. So do labour in prayer alongside us and be part of what God is doing in Ipoh! http://revivalgen.multiply.com/journal/item/42/Inter-school_Camp_in_Ipoh_25th_-_30th_May Sun, 25 May 2008 07:53:05 -0000 Oikos Indonesian Church Ministry Report The Oikios Indonesian Church's service is held at Peninsular Hotel. This is my first time preaching in this church and I was invited by my long time friend Pastor Yakub. He was my classmate while I was studying in TCA 10 years ago. The congregation is made up of mostly, youths and young adults and they are are a passionate bunch of believers. Praise and worship was awesome and the presence of God was evident in the room where the service was held. Preaching was relatively easy as the members were passionate and really hungry for God. When the altar call was given, there was such a strong anointing that came, people were crying out in hunger for the Lord, some were on the knees repenting before God. As Lillian prayed for a young lady, demons started manifesting. She started running away and had to be pin down, while being prayed for. Many were gloriously touched and ministered to by God as the fire of the Spirit fell upon them. Thank you Lord for the privilege of being your vessel ... http://revivalgen.multiply.com/journal/item/41/Oikos_Indonesian_Church_Ministry_Report Sun, 25 May 2008 07:48:33 -0000 Bethel Children Ministry Teacher's Retreat Ministry Report On Sunday Night I had a rude shock when I recieved a phone call from Bro Daniel of Bethel AG. "Pastor Ben you are suppose to speak to us tonight." I realized that I had recorded the dates wrongly and thought that I am supposed to speak on Monday night instead. I sped down to the venue and thankfully reached the meeting when their worship had just ended. I shared with them regarding "Raising the Next Generation". The next morning I carried on with the same theme and shared with them the importance of interceding for the children placed by God inside the church's fold and also those that are outside in their community. After my message we had a wonderful time praying and interceding for this generation of children. Many were crying and weeping as they were seized with God's burden to see revival amongst the children. There was a wonderful move of the Spirit, and many of the teachers were wonderfully touched by God. Praise God for His wonderful works! http://revivalgen.multiply.com/journal/item/38/Bethel_Children_Ministry_Teachers_Retreat_Ministry_Report Tue, 20 May 2008 13:21:28 -0000 Last weekend's ministry 10th -11th May Last Saturday I spoke at Grace 2 AG Youth Service. The Youth Pastor is Ronald. They were a great bunch of youths(About 60 of them), very responsive. Many of them came out either to be baptized in the Spirit or to have the Spirit's flame rekindled in their lives. It was awesome to see these kids filled with the Spirit and speaking in tongues, while others were hungry for God to move in their lives. Sunday morning I was at Grace 1 AG Youth Service. There were about 200 youths. I shared basically the same message with lesser jokes as time was limited. Many responded and again it was an open heaven. Those who responded were filled with the Spirit, others were weeping profusedly or soaking in God presence at the altar. I left the service with Ronald and his team still ministering as we have to be at the cornerstone's youth service. Worship at Generations was great as usual. I started out my message with some knots in my stomache as Prophetess Nita Johnson was sitting right in front of ... http://revivalgen.multiply.com/journal/item/36/Last_weekends_ministry_10th_-11th_May Mon, 12 May 2008 13:08:42 -0000 Emmanuel AG Youth Service http://revivalgen.multiply.com/video/item/22/Emmanuel_AG_Youth_Service Sat, 10 May 2008 04:23:29 -0000 Preaching at Grace AG Youth Service http://revivalgen.multiply.com/calendar/item/10045/Preaching_at_Grace_AG_Youth_Service Wed, 7 May 2008 07:29:56 -0000 Preaching at Grace Assembly Youth Service http://revivalgen.multiply.com/calendar/item/10044/Preaching_at_Grace_Assembly_Youth_Service_ Wed, 7 May 2008 07:28:06 -0000 Ministry at Church of Christ the Rock Youth Service 4th May 2008 Today i preached at Church of Christ the Rock. I last ministered here 2 years ago. I preached on the topic "Dealing with the inner weaknesses of your Life". Though this was only a small group of young people consisting of about 20 in all including some older ones who decided to join in, I preached with the same fervency and zeal as I would regardless of the group size. Size certainly does not matter. Many of the young people present had never encountered the Holy Spirit before. As the altar call was given, many of them streamed forward wanting to be prayed for. Some of them were reluctant as they were persuaded by their parents or friends to come forward. But nevertheless, God was faithful to His Word as Lillian and myself begin to lay hands on them to experience the fire of the Holy Spirit. Tears were shed especially those who were half-hearted not knowing what to expect. Words of knowledge were released as we ministered and the older folks were also touched ... http://revivalgen.multiply.com/journal/item/32/Ministry_at_Church_of_Christ_the_Rock_Youth_Service_4th_May_2008 Sun, 4 May 2008 16:19:56 -0000 Ministry at Emmanuel AG Combine Youth and Young Adult service 3rd May 2008 This is the first preaching engagement since I stepped out into the ministry of an Itinerant Evangelist officially on 1st May 2008. I remembered that a couple of weeks ago, I was looking at my calender in May and I laid my hands on the calender asking God to open doors to minister in churches. Immediately after I prayed, Pastor Mark from Emmanuel AG called and asked me if i was free to preach in his youth service in the month of April. It was later changed to the 3rd of May. This came as an instant answer to my prayer. God was assuring me that He hears my prayers. As I entered in to worship hall where a hundred over youths and young adults gathered, I knew that it was a divine appointment and the fire of the Holy Spirit would surely fall. The presence of God was evident as the congregation worshipped the Lord. That evening I shared a message entitled "Torched by the Spirit". At the end of the message I gave an altar call with Louis helping me with the music and altar cal... http://revivalgen.multiply.com/journal/item/31/Ministry_at_Emmanuel_AG_Combine_Youth_and_Young_Adult_service_3rd_May_2008 Sun, 4 May 2008 15:24:21 -0000 Preaching at Church of Christ the Rock Youth Service http://revivalgen.multiply.com/calendar/item/10041/Preaching_at_Church_of_Christ_the_Rock_Youth_Service Sat, 19 Apr 2008 07:17:38 -0000 Preaching at Cornerstone Generation Youth Service http://revivalgen.multiply.com/calendar/item/10038/Preaching_at_Cornerstone_Generation_Youth_Service Tue, 15 Apr 2008 08:57:42 -0000 Preaching at Emmanuel AG Combine Youth and Young Adult's Service http://revivalgen.multiply.com/calendar/item/10034/Preaching_at_Emmanuel_AG_Combine_Youth_and_Young_Adults_Service Thu, 10 Apr 2008 02:12:05 -0000 Bethel AOG Teacher's Meeting http://revivalgen.multiply.com/calendar/item/10032/Bethel_AOG_Teachers_Meeting Mon, 31 Mar 2008 02:43:56 -0000 Bethel AOG Teacher's Meeting http://revivalgen.multiply.com/calendar/item/10031/Bethel_AOG_Teachers_Meeting Mon, 31 Mar 2008 02:43:16 -0000 school_revival_solo.wmv Two years ago, together with Pastor Daniel and Isaiah we preached in a youth conference in Solo. We challenged the young people to reach out to their generation, by praying for revival and also to penerate the schools with the gospel.There was a tremendous move of the Spirit. Young people came to the altar catching the fire of the Spirit....Today I met Pastor H. and he shared with me that the young people are evangelising the schools, stuidents meet at homes near the schools and there is a tremendous move of the Spirit...In the video when you come to a segment call fire house, that is the place where students meet after school to worship God...God is simply http://revivalgen.multiply.com/video/item/18/school_revival_solo.wmv Tue, 18 Mar 2008 14:31:00 -0000 Preaching at Revival Centre Church Main Service http://revivalgen.multiply.com/calendar/item/10025/Preaching_at_Revival_Centre_Church_Main_Service Wed, 20 Feb 2008 15:19:45 -0000 Preaching at Revival Centre Church Good Friday Service http://revivalgen.multiply.com/calendar/item/10024/Preaching_at_Revival_Centre_Church_Good_Friday_Service Wed, 20 Feb 2008 15:18:28 -0000 Revival at Shillong In 1906, Shillong was impacted by the Welsh revival as Evan Robert's sister and Sydney Evans went to minister in Shillong. A hundred years after the Welsh revival, revival hit Shilong again. In May 2006, the Shillong revival began. I was watching the documentary on the Shillong revival which carries the actual footage of what's happening, and my mind was blown away by the awesome moving of the Spirit. Children, youths and adults were passionately worshipping the Lord in the churches, and worship services carried on till the wee hours of the morning. The Church authorities had no choice but to pass down the order that all services have to end by 9 pm. This was because much of life was disrupted by the revival. Amazing signs appeared. In one church the cross in front of the sanctuary started to shine on it's own. This phenomenon began in 5th September 06 and the light slowly faded away in November 07. Many who came to the church to worship during this period fall under the power of the ... http://revivalgen.multiply.com/journal/item/29/Revival_at_Shillong Mon, 23 Jul 2007 02:58:19 -0000 Revival History - The Awesome Argentina Revival The Awesome Argentina Revival -  Lessons in Evangelism and Spiritual Warfare from Argentina by Peter Wagner edited by Chris Simpson and David Little  One of the most successful models of urban evangelism that I have recently been in contact with is taking place in Argentina. Throughout the history of Protestant missions to Latin America, Argentina has been one of the more resistant nations. With the exception of the Tommy Hicks crusade and its aftermath in the early 1950s, the evangelical movement in Argentina has been pretty lackadaisical. But this changed dramatically with the Falkland Islands war in 1982 when Argentina tried unsuccessfully to occupy the Malvinas Islands, as they call them. The British victory caused a radical change in Argentine social psychology. National pride, for which Argentines were internationally notorious, was severely damaged. The church had failed them, the military had failed them, Peronism had failed them - they were ready to try something new. Th... http://revivalgen.multiply.com/journal/item/28/Revival_History_-_The_Awesome_Argentina_Revival_ Wed, 18 Jul 2007 09:29:34 -0000 Revival History - The Scottish Revival (Western Isles) The Scottish Revival (Western Isles) When the Mountains Flowed Down - Duncan Campbell Duncan Campbell: Duncan Campbell (1898-1972) was raised in the Highlands of Scotland. He came to know God as a teenager and served congregations of the United Free Church (Presbyterian) and as an itinerant evangelist. In addition to his involvement in the Lewis Awakening, he was much in demand as a speaker throughout the British Isles. <HR> All Scriptures KJV:  This article is adapted from a taped message delivered by Mr. Duncan Campbell approximately thirty years ago to the students of the Faith Mission Bible College in Edinburgh, Scotland. It chronicles some of Mr. Campbell's experiences and insights related to the revival from 1949-1953 in Hebrides Islands off the northwestern coast of Scotland. Oh that thou wouldest rend the heavens, that thou wouldest come down, that the mountains might flow down at thy presence.
