Vision

• Build Kingdom´s culture. Focus on new identities in Christ, and secure identities in God.  

• Making disciples and training leaders 

• Put faith and loves into actions.

I will help my friend to train disciples. They are now about 9- 12 young men and we  hope that we will  get some girls when I start the work.We have planed to do Out - Reach in "those countries" one month. It depends on how God leads us and which countries we will go. The question, is it dangerous ? Yes, But Jesus loves it. 

Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.

Matt. 28: 19-20

The price to pay

How much it costs for saying YES to follow the calling?

Nout, 26 years old. She is a young radical woman from my "neighbours country". I was her 

mentor when she practiced at IMI Church, 2014-2015. Actually, she just resigned from her 

job as Trainer Supervisor for hundreds of people at a big factory in her country. With a 

reason that she wants to be an example for her own people that God can use them to be 

Missionaries as the other people in another countries. Besides,  she wants to learn how to train disciples together with me.

Divine Connection.

Nout, didn´t know that I will move back to Thailand. At that time, I was struggling who I 

shall go with when I am going to start the ministry. I have done ministries over 10 years and I know it is not easy to start something alone. Without realising that God is working be-hide the scene, Nout has contacted me and asked for suggestion which the bible school that she should attend. We talked, and I shared the visions that God has put in my heart. I ended up 

by inviting her to join the Mission School with me. 

I don´t think she took a long time before she said YES for Mission School. 

The pris that she needs to pay.

We all know that grace is for free but following Him and be mature in the Lord, there are 

some prices we have to pay for. It costs her a lot to serve God with me. Her family, friends and people around her are not agree what she is about to do. To leave the best job and step into a place which has no secure, no income and no certificate. Someone said; desperate people do a desperate thing. They can kill and steal for being survive.

In other hand, in love people do a crazy in love thing. She is simply in love with Jesus, that´s why she dares to do such a thing.

Mary, mother of Jesus paid a lot of price when she said YES to the Lord. But she was willing 

to pay for that. It might cost rejections from her friends or even her own family and her 

fiancé. Or even she could put into death because being pregnant before marriage, was  actually against the law.  It costed times and energies to be pregnant. It took time to nurse a  baby boy. Think about how many critic words she got.

But we are now saved because a teenage girl, Mary said YES to those high prices. She did not focus on what she was facing at the moment, but the promise of God.

I am grateful for great Heros like Mary who walked before me, who are willing to pay 

the high price, so that we can walk into this journey.

Nout has chosen to pay these prices for her own Nation and other Nations so that people will 

find a way to Jesus.

 Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If anyone wishes to follow Me [as My disciple], he must

deny himself [set aside selfish interests], and take up his cross[expressing a willingness to

endure whatever may come] and follow Me [believing in Me, conforming to My example in

 living and, if need be, suffering or perhaps dying because of faith in Me]. 

      

Matt. 16:24, AMP

Calling to a New Mission Field

"Lord, I just love Norway and the people here so much. They are like home for me.  Moreover you have called me to be missionary in Europe, so I want to stay." 

Discussing went on and on. We all know, in terms of discussion with God, He always win.

In the end of March, 2016 I got a message from a friend of mine. He asked me to be a director for his Mission School. And the students are from "those countries" 

When I got a massage from my friend it confirmed me that when God called me to make disciples in "those countries" was not my own imagination. 

It was a big step for me, I went to a cottage alone for 3 days for seeking His confirmation. 

I went back to my Journey from last year for checking, maybe God has lined up something for me. I found out that  I got a dream about a baby in a bush ( Baby means new ministry or responsibility). In the dream I asked the people what is the name of the baby. Someone answered me "her name is Esther" Then story of Esther kept coming into my mind.

Yes, It´s about helping my own people. 

…And who knows but that you have come to your royal position for such a time as this?”…“I will go to the king, even though it is against the law. And if I perish, I perish.”  Esther 4: 14, 17

It was not easy for Esther to say YES to her own people neither. I guess, she might be fear, afraid, confuses or maybe she had a lot of questions ran in her mind; What if she losed her position? What if she losed her life? I was like that too.

However Esther was such a brave young woman. She said " I will go"  Just one YES,  God used her to change the history.

To be hones I was afraid to lose friends, positions and good life here in this country. Then a thought came into my mind " If I am ashamed to represent God, I never see God´s Kingdom through me." 

Esther´s story has spoken louder inside of me. Finally in May, 2016 I made a decision that I will go.

I commit myself to this calling for 3 years and see how God leads me in the future.

This Mission School is for the youth from " those countries" they will stay with us at least 1 or 2 years. We teach them and send them back to start House Churches or Ministries where they come from.

I don´t get any income from this position, but I know when God calls me to do something, He will always provide me and my people. That means miracles are on the way! 

I want to be real and don´t want to make up that I am such a radical woman who always says YES to whatsoever God calls me into. I am not a woman who are on fire and full of energies all the times. I am not a super woman who is fear nothing.  I must admit that I am very normal woman who goes up and down like the other. And I am still doing some mistakes.

Nevertheless  I want my life to be like a book that a normal people can read and realize that if God can use me who are very normal and small, God can use you to do and extraordinary things too. 

Thailand's trip 2013

One of my dreams is bringing young people from Norway for mission trips! 

And YES! The 15th, July - 1st August was the dream came through! The trip was really fantastic! We have done a lot of things within 17 days. we were all together 9 people for the first week and 7 people for the second week. Some of them didn't want to come back to Norway because they just like Thailand so much!

We were in Bangkok and stayed at my sister house for 2 days and then we traveled to Phiboon 3 days. Phiboon is a small town which is in the North-East of Thailand. We visited Immanuel hostel and my mom. We had meetings, preachings, worshiping and party with young people there.  There were 11 people received Christ! Hallelujah! It was really powerful touching. While we were praying for them, so all boys and girls who received Christ just started to cried! I didn't know what God spoked to them but His presence was really amazing!

                                                 

More over, we went to a small village for a funeral of a boy who have been in Immanuel hostel. He was only one Christain boy in that village. We all were there praying for his family eventhough they are not Christain.There were around 50 - 70 people at the funeral. One of us got an idea that we supposed to buy ice cream for all of them. Just for blessing and showing love.
We did that! We ended up with singing and praying for the sick at the funeral!

GOD IS GREAT!

 

                      

After a wonderful trip in Phiboon. We came back to Bangkok again for joining a church camp in Phetburi.

It was really fun! Especially for me. Because it is my home church. I do miss my people here so much and I do miss the community. We all are like a big family.Even the youth from Norway can feel that too! At least some of them said to me that my church looks like a big family!

  

We had an amazing time beside a beach . The church impressed us by trying to speak Norwegians. It was really funny and lovely in the same time. Some of us have been asked to have a special song for a meeting. Yeah, they did such a great job as well! I was just so pround of them.

So we came back to Bangkok again. After a fantastic camping with the church.

Testimony:

On the way back to Bangkok I got a sms from a young man in our House Church in Norway. He asked me how Thailand trip is going. And he felt like God reminded him to think about me a lot...
In the same day, in the evening I was suddenly sick. I felt VERY COLD! My whole body was shaking because my body felt so much freeze! But no fever. I got hurt on my stomach and my back. I couldn't breathe well.  My sister covered me with 3 blankets and gave me massage. But it didn't get well at all... It got worst!
I was a bit worry because I must bring to team to Chiang Mai- North Thailand in the next day. But other hand, I thought it must be something GREAT and exciting in Chiang Mai!

I asked all the team to came and pray me. The amazing thing was, after they all prayed for me around 5 min. I felt much better and body didn't shaking!  God is just AWESOME!


The trip to Chiang Mai still kept going on! 

God is the healer!

So the show must go on. Next day, I felt so much better and ready to our journey to Chiang Mai. We took a night bus to Chiang Mai and a Pastor in Hot Spring water came  and picked we up.

We spent time with the kids at the Hot Spring water orphanage. We had worship, preaching, making party for them and prayed for a lady at a Hot Spring water park ( she was healed! ) . More over, the Pastor asked us to visit a lady in a small village. She is only one Christian in that village. So we could pray for her and encourage her.  Beside we could also gospel there as well. We said YES!

                

 

When we arrived that village which quite fra from the orphanage. We met that lady! She was being sick and feeling not so well. I asked her what kind of sickness she got.
She said; she feels cold and freeze but she doesn't has any fever! It was exactly like what I got!

We prayed for her! Our team got words for her and encourage her! She was thanksful! She smile again with tears!

On the way out of her home. We met a woman in the village, she got hurt on her back. I found out that her legs are not the same length! We prayed for her for 3 times. I didn't that her legs was grown out or not but she felt much better. Actually before we prayed, she couldn't bent her back but afterward she did! Praise the Lord.

We went to 2 villages and talked with some people, shared brochures and came back.


                           

                           

I was so impressed about the kids here. They wake up at 5 AM. every working day for praying and worship God. And they have one again meeting at 7 PM.

I asked them what about on weekend

They replied, it's quite good because they can wake up a bit late!

Cool! what time? I asked.

at 5.30 AM.!!!!

.......

    

They are such a warriors of God. A great intercessors! 

They are quite shy. They don't speak that much. BUT when they pray! OH! MY! you have to see that by yourself! It was so power voice!

A small kids 5-7 have unbelievable power prayer voices!

 They said, they don't have any thing to give to us. The whole orphanage went to stage and sang for us! It made me cry!  

We supported them a bit! They don't get regular support from any where. The pastor and his family do it by faith. He said, many times God has lead tourist or people passed here by and they have realized that here is a orphanage, so they just gave some money, thing, car and etc.

This time we gave them a refrigerator and some money from our friends in Norway!

They are highly appreciated and would like to say thank you so much for support both money and prayers! 

I think, we are not just givers but we also receivers! It seemed like we gave a lot for this trip but we received a lots as well! 

Thank you so much for praying for me and team! 

All the blessings we got, we share them to you!  

Julebrev 2012 / Christmas letter 2012

It seems really looooooooong time that I don't touch my blog.

Now! it is the time!


Actually it isn't my traditional to write a Christmas letter ( Julebrev ) Since I have been in Norway in many years, so it is not that bad to get some impact from Norwegian culture by writing ''Julebrev'' hehe :P

Anyway, time goes really fast, I just realized that I have spend my life almost 7 years in Europe for a calling to serve God which I couldn't imagine how it gonna be...

And I have been in Bryne almost 2 years.

Bryne is a small town which is in the South West  of Norway. Here people speak Norwegian with Jærsk accent it is difficult to understand. But it's really lovely to hear it.


I work as a youth worker, graphic designer, worship leader and Confirmation worker ( konfirmantarbeid)  in Bryne Frikyrkje. And sometime I allow myself to do prophetic paintings in conferences. It's fun!




I would say that I don't have any education for Theology or biblical certificate. Only one thing I have is '' the name of Jesus'' It sounds weird but it is truth

One of my favorited prayer is: Father you have to give me signs and wonders going infront of me, so it will be proved that I have been sent by You!

Yeah! such a great prayer ever!


Since I have worked here for one and half years, it has been fascinating to see how God works among young people in this area. I have seen signs, wonders and miracles happening again and again and it seems never stop. Sure, it happens not only among young people but also adult. But the greatest thing for me is; to see many young people here start to hungry for God. I see many lives have been changed!, some of them start to getting serious with God, serve Him, love Him and need more of Him!

That make me always smile when I think about this.

I have to confess that the most precious Christmas gift for me in this year is: seeing the youth here growing!



I absolutely love my job and I am grateful that I can do what I love.


Beside I am so lucky to have ALOT of good people around me. I always find my brothers, sisters or even parents in Christ everywhere God send me to. It is such amazing and fascinatingly to see how God connects people together.

              I wish I will have more time to share about testimonies that I have been experienced. 

                     However, I wish you guys merry Christmas and Happy New year 2013! 

                                              I am really looking forward to the year 2013!!!

                                                          It is going to be AWESOME!!!

                                                                        Be blessed!

We are a Tent Maker!

Dunamis - The Power to Chang Life.

I would like to present a new born company which my sister and I start to do to together. (Well, actually it is my sister's vision but I just help her a bit :P

In 2009 my sister had been gotten a revelation that, God called her to a business but it will be more than a business.

In January, we were talking about the revelation once again and we both had a deep desiring that we have to move out from our small apartment with a comfort life as quick as possible. And we must obey God even though we don’t know what support to be next. WALK BY FAITH NOW! It seems like God opened the door for us. Because at the same time, a member in our church offered a house for rent for us, and he didn't know at all that we were looking for a house for rent!

Everything went very quick, we moved to a new house for rent and we took 2 boys and 1 girl stay with us. So that, we can take a good care of them and support them foods, educations etc. as much as we can.

We use this house for rent as a home office and place to stay.

Our house open wide for the youth. We have pray meeting at home every Wednesday and in weekends we try to invite young people to visit us. Sometime just hang out together at home.

We were painting... So fun!

We had decided to have white color at the wall.

About our Company:

The company was established by serving in a local church in Bangkok. By using God’s gifts about art designing, creativity, logos and graphic design, post card, web design and T- shirt design for any event in the church.

For this reason the works of art and related products, are increasingly recognized more and more both in our own local church and extended to the churches in almost every other sector in the country as well as abroad, especially the Scandinavian countries. All of our art works and related products were concerned with a good quality care and taking good care of the small details. That made us trusted and reliable, both inside and outside the country. At the starting point, we had a goal of just serving, helping and supporting domestic Churches and Organizations. But now we have got a power of thought, and expanded our serving to around the world.

In 2010 the word “Dunamis” which appears in a book called “God’s Power to change your life” by Rick Warren, came to our mind as a word that expresses our “mission” Dunamis comes from Greek and means “the Power”. The word “Dunamis” is derived from “Dynamite”. It is a term used to describe the power of God to change lives. We believe that God has provided a powerful dynamite to change ourselves and society, so that we live better. We also believe that if we have the power to do something, then everything is possible!

Our main focusing:

• · Serving God and be a partner with churches, ministries and organization both in Thailand and overseas.
• · Support Christian Ministries in Thailand.
• · Do a business not for getting rich but to increase God’s Kingdom.

How to support us.

We are highly appreciated if you please

• introduce about our company to people whom would like to have T-shirt projects, Card and Poster designs.
• pray for us.
• please pray for our new car. We have planed together that, one a month we will drive car to small villages in Thailand and gospel by making activities with the people in each villages and share about Good news! My sister and I had done something like that 10 years ago and we would like to proceed to do it again :D

These ways you could support us :D

Thank you so much!

The mission question by Dr.Charles F. Stanley

For the Scripture says,

"WHOEVER BELIEVES IN HIM WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED."

For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek; for the same Lord is Lord of all, abounding in riches for all who call on Him;

for WHOEVER WILL CALL ON THE NAME OF THE LORD WILL BE SAVED."

How then will they call on Him in whom they have not believed? How will they believe in Him whom they have not heard? And how will they hear without a preacher?

How will they preach unless they are sent? Just as it is written, HOW BEAUTIFUL ARE THE FEET OF THOSE WHO BRING GOOD NEWS OF GOOD THINGS!" Roman 10: 11-15

At every missions conference hosted by my church, I give God the same message I’ve been repeating since my early 20s: “I’m available, Lord. I’ll go to foreign fields if you say so.” Until He tells me to pack my bags, I’m going to keep on sending others to work among unbelievers in distant and even remote lands.

Paul asked a series of rhetorical questions in Romans 10 that can be summed up like this: How will the world hear about Jesus if you do nothing? God uses Christians to spread the word that His salvation plan is available to all. He put us in families and communities and nations so we will mingle and share what we know. But some believers are called to carry the gospel farther than others. Those who stay behind are to offer prayer and resources for those who travel.

If you’re shaking your head and thinking, Mission work isn’t where my heart is, I have news for you: Every believer is called to missions as either a goer or a sender. That call comes in dramatic ways for some, but for most of us, it is simply a biblical principle to be followed (Matt. 28:19). What’s missing for those who don’t have a “heart” for such work is passion. Christians who share and go and send are often excited about God’s message for unbelievers—and it’s possible for you to become more enthusiastic too.

I challenge you to ask the Lord, “Am I open to going anywhere You send me?” Our roots in a community should be sunk only as deep as God wills. If you aren’t called to go, then choose to be a sender. Offer your prayers, your money, and anything else that will help to put others on the mission field. - Dr. Charles F. Stanley http://www.intouch.org/

Infield at Hua Hin 2011

This is one of my FANTASTIC time in this month! Infield at Hua Hin in Thailand with 12 viking students from Hald year 2010-2011.

I was asked to help a teacher at Hald for an infield course. Of course I said YES! And only 2 hours before I left from Bangkok to the south, I got a calling from Kristian Mjoelsnes. He and his fiancée were in Bangkok and wished to meet me.

Well, everything seems like prompt decision. I decided to take both of them coming to Hua Hin together. With all my hope that maybe both of them could help me and they could enjoy on the beach included beautiful sun as well.

Kristian and Marit were alumni at Hald. We went to Hald at the same year 2008-2009.

Almost 1 week that I was with 15 viking people and it was such a great time that we spended together. Talking, speaking ( nice to talk Norwegian again ), hearing each one of their sharing. Enjoy stories and experiencings that they have learned so far. Of course FOODS! Uhmm yammy :P . By the way, there was something which is amazed me. Because there was really few of them have faced culture shock. GOOD for them!

My main task was a counselor, sharing words of the day and arrange the " Blå tur". Which is a kind of a trip without plaining and unseen before( it's from my own translation ). However our trip was soooo amazing! We went out around 1 hour from Hua Hin which is not a lot of tourists. Long beach - quite good beach - nice weather. A kind of good feeling to see the vikings enjoy sunbathe, swimming and did some sport on the beach.

While the tropical vikings were enjoy sunshine, a small Thai lady has to skip from the sunshine because she doesn't wanna have tan skin Ufff! :P I love to be WHITE AND WISE. Well, I was enjoying Thai massage instead. Oh! It was sooooooo goooooodddd anyway! :D

I have been so bless through this trip. And thankful for God that He leaded me get to know all of them. I do learn from them a lot as well. Through their speaking and sharing which is encourage me so much.

I always say to the people that God has called me to be a missionary and work with the youth in Europe. One day I had a talk with a student and we ended up by prayer. While I was praying for that student I got revelation said; Prem! you are doing that mission which God has called you to do. Even though you are not yet in Europe but you still serving the youth from Europe and helping them in your country!

Ingen grense å tjene Gud
