DAY 5 (2017) - Listen And Be Blessed, Being Salt & Light, God Glorified (Please click here for English podcast)

Silence

1.   Put on your “brakes” and stop for a moment of silence
2.   Wait for God. Breathe deep for God's peace and feel His presence. Exhale your worries.

Praise and Thanksgiving

1.   Think through your day, all the times that made you smile
2.   Thank God for all those moments, and for all those people


Confession and Repentance (Subjective Shifting Devotion Method http://bishopsilas.blogspot.ca/2009/08/count-down-5-subject-shifting-devotion.html)

1.  Pray for the Holy Spirit to work in you:

     “Dear Holy Spirit, shine your light into the places of darkness in my life. Show me my sins, everything that blocks me from encountering God. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.”


2.  Through the Holy Spirit, examine yourself for a short silence and then pray:

     "Dear Lord Jesus, thank you for dying on the cross for our sins and being victorious over death and sin. I confess my sin to you(pause, to tell Jesus what the Holy Spirit has shown you). Forgive my sins by your blood and help me follow you. Holy Spirit, fill me that I may be able to receive your gift to love God and His people. In Jesus Name I pray, Amen."

The Word (Psalm 4:1-8; Proverbs 1:24-28; Genesis 11:1-13:5
Matthew 5:1-26)





Let's have a time to be still and give the Holy Spirit space to speak through the passage we have just read. Offer this time up to Jesus as you listen to him, while listening to "Gabriel's Oboe"

    My Listening
      All four readings today give us a very good picture as well as warning of the life and death difference of willing to listen and obey to God and not willing to listen and obey to God.

      From Proverbs 1:24-25 I got this:
      1. Refuse to listen when God calls
      2. Pay no attention when God gives you His hand to save you and help you
      3. Disregard all God's advice and the advice from His servants
      4. Do not accept God's rebuke and the rebuke from His servants

      Then we can see how Abram put everything right side up. He just listened and obeyed and God blessed him and many have been blessed because of his listen and obey. And, that's how Jesus says about the beatitudes and about how we are being blessed and be able to be salt and light to glorify God. 

      If you know me for sometime, you may think that I am talking about the same thing "listen and obey" again. But, that's how we can be blessed and the only way to enjoy God's blessing staying with Him daily in His mighty Kingdom. 

      Dear Lord Jesus
      Help us to be willing to listen and obey so that we can be a blessing to many people. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.

     Reflect on these questions:
    1. Could you think seriously if that four points I mentioned above concerning with you? If so, what is God trying to tell you?

2. What is your next step to be able to become a blessing to other people?


     3. What have you got from Jesus today?
