Faith Chronicles

A month of daily readings, written by Dr RJ Sing for his church every month from 2007 until his passing in 2024. Pastor Zubeda Sing wrote alongside him, and she continues them today. Each reading has its scripture, the teaching, a confession and the day's Bible reading plan.

In 2021 and 2022 he also wrote daily messages for believers in business and at work — the Marketplace, kept with the rest of his writing on his own site.

The Spirit’s Clear Mandate to Apostle Paul

Pastor Zubeda Sing

“But when God, who had chosen me and set me apart before I was born, and called me through His grace, was pleased to reveal His Son in me so that I might preach Him among the Gentiles [as the good news—the way of salvation], I did not immediately consult with anyone [for guidance regarding God’s call and His revelation to me]. Nor did I [even] go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me; but I went to Arabia and stayed awhile, and afterward returned once more to Damascus” Gal 1 v15-17

Practice Patience
“My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.” James 1v2-4
Patience is a fruit of the spirit. Like any other fruit it takes time to grow and develop. Once it is ripe and ready it brings forth the greatest flavour and taste. The f…

Apologise
“David said to God, “Is it not I who commanded the people to be counted? I am the one who has sinned and done evil; but as for these sheep [the people of Israel], what have they done? O LORD my God, please let Your hand be against me and my father’s house, but not against Your people that they should be plagued.”” 1 Chron 21v17
David was a man after God’s own heart. He had a pliable heart that was willing to ask for forgiveness, willing to apologise no matter what a great king he was. He was so …

Learn to Let Go
“Brothers and sisters, I do not consider that I have made it my own yet; but one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and reaching forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the [heavenly] prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus” Phil 3v13-14
Paul was a mighty man of God, an apostle. Yet even this great man who had abundance of revelation, had to learn to let go. He understood that as long as he held onto the …

Grace to Seize Opportunities
“Then Pharaoh sent and called for Joseph, and they hurriedly brought him out of the dungeon; and when Joseph shaved himself and changed his clothes [making himself presentable], he came to Pharaoh. Pharaoh said to Joseph, “I have dreamed a dream, and there is no one who can interpret it; and I have heard it said about you that you can understand a dream and interpret it.” Joseph answered Pharaoh, “It is not in me [to interpret the dream]; God [not I] will give Pharaoh a favorable answer [through me]” Genesis 41v14
Joseph was a dreamer and a dream interpreter. He was in jail for being falsely accused of rape. Joseph did not even consider this. When the call from Pharoah called, he w…

The Blessing of Perseverance
“Stand firm in the one Spirit, striving together as one for the faith of the gospel without being frightened in any way by those who oppose you. This is a sign to them that they will be destroyed, but that you will be saved—and that by God” PHILIPPIANS 1:27–28
There has rarely been a time in the last 2,000 years when Christians haven’t been ridiculed and criticized in some way by people.

The Courage to Apologise
“But those who stood near Paul said, “Are you insulting the high priest of God?” Paul said, “I was not aware, brothers, that he was high priest; for it is written, ‘YOU SHALL NOT SPEAK EVIL OF A RULER OF YOUR PEOPLE.’” Acts 23v 4-5
Paul was taken in for questioning and the interrogation got quite heated. Paul then responded rudely, hence the above scripture. He was humble enough to apologise as he u…

The Comforter
“And I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Helper (Comforter, Advocate, Intercessor—Counselor, Strengthener, Standby), to be with you forever— the Spirit of Truth, whom the world cannot receive [and take to its heart] because it does not see Him or know Him, but you know Him because He (the Holy Spirit) remains with you continually and will be in you.” John 14 v 16-17
When you are born again, the greatest friend you will ever encounter is the Holy Spirit. Jesus called him the comforter, one just like him. Jesus was on earth in the fles…

Grow in Joy
“Also on that day they offered great sacrifices and rejoiced because God had given them great joy; the women and children also rejoiced, so that the joy of Jerusalem was heard from far away” Nehemiah 12v43
Let the joy of the Lord be an attitude that releases joy and launches it from your lips, the hidden secret of a happy life on earth—an attitude of unselfishness. My encou…

“There is a season (a time appointed) for everything and a time for every delight and event or purpose under heaven” Ecclesiastes 3v1
So many questions, so many wondering when? We just do not understand why certain things are happening and we ask why. The answer is, there is perfect timing in God. He do…
