Today's Reading: Acts 2

Please read Acts 2 and listen to what the Lord Jesus Christ would like to tell you before reading my Spiritual Journal below. If you would like to learn a simple and good way of Daily Devotion method you may click this link directly for the method:Subject Shifting Devotion.pdf.

Please click this link to read Acts 2:

"Therefore let all Israel be assured of this: God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Christ." When the people heard this, they were cut to the heart and said to Peter and the other apostles, "Brothers, what shall we do?" Peter replied, "Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will received the gift of the Holy Spirit." Acts 2: 36-39

What I typed a few minutes ago as the title was "Received and fill with the Holy Spirit". But, Jesus told me to change that into "You crucified Jesus!"

Jesus is the Lord and Christ but we crucified Him so that Jesus cannot be our Lord and Saviour!

What would happen if Jesus is really our Lord and Saviour:
1. We listen and we obey
You can listen but not obey. That's what lots of Christians do and that's why so many churches and Christians have lots of problems and pain! If we really have an intimate relationship with Jesus then we can be able to listen and we will obey to what He commands us. Yes, not just He tells us but commands us for He is our Lord. That's why 120 disciples waited in the house for the Holy Spirit to come. They didn't know how long did it take but they just "listen and obey" and wait. We don't wait, the Holy Spirit will not come! Lots of time we "do" our daily devotion and not enjoy "being" with Jesus. We don't wait, so the Holy Spirit won't come and without the filling of the Holy Spirit we are powerless each day! Wow! That's a new insight and command from Jesus now in the hotel room early 6a.m. in London! Don't "rush" your daily devotion. The "doing" of devotion doesn't work but the "being" of Jesus leads you to wait for the Holy Spirit to come to fill you each day that you can be strengthened, filled and anointed by the Holy Spirit that you have the gift of the Holy Spirit to do what you cannot do as a human being.

Do you have that relationship with Jesus that you can wait like that?

2. We have a new lifestyle
The "old" way we had is usually contrary to our new lifestyle of Christlikeness. What is that:
1. We were unteachable.
2. We toke and could not give.
3. We worshiped lots of things but not God.
4. Our lifestyle could not be a good example to bring others to Jesus.

The "new" way according to Acts 2 here after the repentance, the forgiveness and the filling of the Holy Spirit became:
1. Teachable. (v. 42)
2. Willing to give. (v. 44-45)
3. Worshiped God daily. (v. 46 - 47)
4. Their lifestyle attracted other people to the church and they were being saved. (v. 47)

If you do not have the new lifestyle of Christlikeness then you are still killing Jesus daily!


Dear Lord Jesus,
Help us not to kill you anymore but to follow you as our Lord and Saviour and that we can be filled by the Holy Spirit to be anointed to do your work. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
