“SPUR ONE ANOTHER ON” (Hebrews 10:24) was the theme for this year’s History Maker Hong Kong/ Shenzhen. On Friday afternoon, July 24, the conference kick started with teams from Singapore, Taiwan, Hong Kong and New York (Assemblies of God) going to the streets of Mongkok, a popular and busy shopping district, to do outreach and spread the love of Jesus Christ to locals and tourists. Our spirits were high and much excitement was in the air as we walked down Sai Yeung Choi Street. There we met with a Christian tourist organization that provided us with the gospel packages. 
Inside each bag were gospel tracts, CDs and lots of other information. We were then divided into 3 different groups; one group to sing praise and worship unto God; second group to do prayer walk around the area; and the third group to give out gospel packages and talk to the passer-bys. Many stopped to listen to us praise and worship God. That afternoon we distributed over 2,000 gospel packages in just 2 hours, the highest record ever!

We ended our outreach at about 7pm and proceeded to Joyful Harvest Fellowship for the evening evangelistic rally. A few of those we met at the Mongkok outreach turned up for the meeting, praise God! The meeting hall was packed as we started the praise and worship. This year the worship team consisted of Singapore, Taiwan and Hong Kong members. Even though it was their first time leading worship together, there was much synergy 
and unity that flowed from the praise and worship singing both English and Mandarin songs. Pastor Richard William preached on “Divine Guidance” from Genesis 24, challenging the congregation if they want to be world changers, they cannot live ordinary lives. Many responded to the call to radical faith, desiring to do extraordinary things for the Kingdom of God. The different pastors and teams then ministered and prayed for the individuals.
The next day early morning on 25 July, the teams from Singapore and Taiwan met at 5:30am for prayer. One of the trademarks of History Maker is prayer, a time of seeking the Lord’s face and getting ourselves aligned to God’s will and purpose for that day. We had an awesome time in the Lord’s presence, praying for the Spirit to move mightily in the conference and to bring about revival in the church and the city.That morning Pastor Samuel Chu (Taipei) ministered God’s Word from Hosea 14:5-7.
He encouraged the church to keep loving one another and loving the Lord for Him to do greater things in their midst. He also shared an incredible testimony on how he came to know Jesus and how the Lord turned his life around from a former gangster to a preacher now. Continuing the morning session, 
Pastor Richard shared on “Making a Difference” from 1 Samuel 14, calling the people to activate their faith so as to see God in action in their lives. The prophetic word released for the church was breakthrough is coming to God’s church and to believe it will happen now. We ended the session with praying for God’s strengthening, empowerment and anointing for the pastors.In the afternoon we continued the conference with workshops on 
“Creative Outreach Methods” conducted by Hannah, Cheng Yao and Kell (Singapore). Held concurrently was a workshop on “Discipleship” conducted by Grace, Daniel and Angela (Singapore). The last workshop session was on “Dynamite Gospel” conducted by Pastor Samuel (Taipei). That afternoon we had a fruitful time learning from one another the different methods and strategies in reaching this generation and how to be more effective in extending God’s Kingdom. Everyone was so blessed and encouraged by the workshops.
That Saturday evening was our final session in Hong Kong. The crowd began to pack the hall by 7pm. The praise and worship team led the congregation in exuberant praise and heartfelt worship unto the Lord. Pastor Samuel Chiu (Pingtung) ministered 
God’s Word and shared his personal testimony on how God changed his life, bringing much encouragement to the church. Bringing closure to the meeting, Pastor Richard shared on “The Power of Surrender.” He challenged the people to lay everything down before the Lord so that He can do the impossible through them. Many young people came to the altar to lay down their lives, willing to die to their self and their desires so that they can have life in Christ. 
The people were so hungry for the presence of God. There was such a tremendous move of the Holy Spirit in that place where lives are being touched and transformed by the power of His Spirit. Truly one word from the Lord and our lives, our church and our city will never be the same again!

On Sunday afternoon, we went up to Shenzhen to have our History Maker 
Conference at a kindergarten. Pastor Samuel Chiu (Pingtung) shared God's Word, concluding with a time of prayer and ministry for the people. Later that evening we had the last session. There was much joy and exuberance in the air as the people lifted praise to Jesus and danced in celebration. Pastor Richard preached on David’s kindness to Mephibosheth; how the things we do in our generation will greatly affect the next generation. The Lord moved in our midst, touching lives and ministering to the various needs in that place.

It was amazing how God moved amongst His people who had a deep desire and desperate hunger for Him. We believe the churches in Hong Kong and Shenzhen were catapulted to a greater supernatural height. To God be the glory!
