I am Daniel Goh!

May Holy Spirit guide you as you read the following: -

My Cell group leader, Serene, knows about my sexual and emotional struggles and is on very close follow up with me. She is someone who is greatly used by Holy Spirit through visions and dreams.

Yesterday, she looked very seriously (normally she's full of smile) at me and told me that the Lord had prompted her to ask me to change my name - Gary.

As Rev Judy was conducting the live demo with a sister, at the point about this Sis' abortion, Serene saw this name - Daniel appeared in front of her eyes three times. She got this 'electrification' (goose pimples she had whenever the Lord affirms about something, what she said or what she interpreted/understood from the Lord) when she told me about this.

After seeing the name - Daniel, her sights was shifted to look at the BIG "Gary Goh" written on my seminar book (she wrote for me on the first day of the seminar). As her sights moved from the stage to my book, she didnt see my name as Gary Goh but as 'Good Girl' (some of you might not be able to accept this but as she was sharing this prompting to me, the Holy Spirit stirred my heart, I felt such great pain in my heart and raced so fast).

Apart from this, I shared another incident with her was (which I didnt share with Serene, prior to the renaming prompting)

On Wednesday night, I was very stirred by some emotional struggles so I broke down and cried (almost non-stop, which Bro. Calvin could verify cos I called him..) for almost one and a half hour after listening to the Spirit Song After that, I was telling him I wanted to read some verses from the Word and ask the Lord to minister to me.

I prayed to the Lord to just show me what He wanted to tell me. Then I just opened the Bible and the Lord brought in front of me, the book of Daniel, which I was reading the first time in my christian life (Daniel Chapter 6: Daniel in the Den of Lion) - what is the Lord saying to me?

What I learnt was: Although Daniel was thrown in the den of lions, he suffered no wound, because he trusted in his God (Daniel 6:23b)

The last incident is that, many of you know that I am currently on Daniel Fasting, which I started almost a month ago (sometime 22 oct/23 oct)..

I believe that there is no coincidence in the Lord's plans.. it's all by divine appointment. Perhaps that is the Lord wants from me.

Brothers, please keep me in prayer about this prompting from the Lord.

I am going to rename myself as Daniel Goh as instructed by the Lord through my cell group leader. Please pray with me about this instruction from the Lord through my cell group leader.

Pray that this name Daniel would break off any possible curses in my former name. Of course, eventually my walk and relationship with the Lord is very impt and above all things. This is one thing which I am very clear about. =)

May the Peace of our Lord be with you.

Daniel Goh

Daniel, nice name. Strong and prophetic. I remember when I felt led to change my name from Peter to Peterson. Lots of people didn't understand it, but I knew it was important for me to join myself closely with the Son of God. Also, I needed to affirm that yes, I am Peter's son, (my dad is also Peter). Through my own emotional and sexual struggle I found a new relationship with my father and my Father. My name change helps me to celebrate new life. Thanks.
