The easiest way is to take one hour slot for the whole week. What you need to do is very simple. Choose one dayThe easiest way is to take one hour slot for the whole week then prayerfully remembering the ministry of ACiC(ACiC has two Networks: ACiC, Anglican Coalition in Canada and AI, Asian Initiative). You may use the whole hour in prayer or you can still do you work in your office but use as much time as you can to pray and the other time work prayerfully that hour to pray for our ministry. I deeply believe that this is a way to draw as many participation as we can in prayers. I encourage you to participate. We need you to join us! Trust in the power of prayers!

Please click this link to read Leviticus 18

"Do not have sexual relations with your neighbor's wife and defile yourself with her."

"Do not lie with a man as one lies with a woman; that is detestable." Leviticus 18: 20,22


What I got from Jesus today is: Sex! Sex! Sex! Mine field!

What I heard from Jesus today is for us to be alert of how Satan can destroy us through all kinds of sexual temptations. God told His people very clear that it was a cultural problem. The culture of Egypt and of Canaan was that kind of filthy culture. Actually the culture and lifestyle of the history of mankind has been mostly confused, filthy and sinful. One of the test whether we have Jesus as Lord and King is that whether we can get away from this kind of sinful culture and have a lifestyle of Christlikeness.

Our sexual desire can never be satisfied unless we repent of our sinful nature and really have Jesus to lead our daily life as our Lord and King. We cannot win Satan's all kinds of sexual temptation. I have seen too many cases of addiction in pornography and sooner or later having other "upgraded" sins of all kinds of possibilities.

Satan always starts to tempt us with the smallest way. You would never think that you would go to bed with your friend's wife. But you might step into a mind field to start with a long talk through the phone in the name of giving her some kind of comfort, then go to lunch, then ... Watch out for your small action that might cause improper sexual behavior. You need to know that only Satan knows your "blind spot" and weakness. Sex is one of the main way Satan can come in to destroy your life as well as your family's life!

Remember, you cannot win Satan. So, if you aware that you have already step into Satan's mine field no matter pornography or improper sexual behavior you need to pray and ask Jesus to stop that one day at a time. Remember, one day at a time! A simple prayer can help, "Lord Jesus, help me! In the Name of Jesus Christ our Lord, Satan, go away!" You never know how powerful this pray can be.

Sex is good, but only in a marriage, a man and a woman's marriage! Other sex outside marriage is sin! We need to pray that you and your wife or your husband can enjoy good sex because that's what God blesses!

Dear Lord Jesus,
Help us to get away from this kind of mine field so that we and our families won't be blown to pieces. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
