The coming three days may be one of the most important moment of your life. Why? Because you are going to complete this 40 days Break.Build in two days time. And, you may decide to stop for a while because you need a "break" after 40 days, right?
Don't take a "break"! If you take a "break" then the past 40 days will become a waste. Continue to use this blog to be your "bridge" to meet Jesus each day. I am going to go back to Discipler123 and will start what we left 40 days ago. If you want to continue Day 40 of Break.Build on Matthew 10:1-4 you can click this link to Matthew 10 of my Discipler123 blog Day 31: http://discipler123.blogspot.ca/2011/04/day-31-direction-mission-passion-vision.html
But, I would like you to continue this site because we will be using the new revised and designed format. So, don't take a "break" but to continue using this site. I will return back to "Discipler 123" on Day 163 Exodus 25.
And, I would like you to use the 40 days Break.Build to help someone to have 40 days daily devotion from now on. You can click this link to my new 40 days Break.Build any time you like to have a 40 days "Break.Build" daily devotion as a discipler to help those Jesus prepares for you to help:

Silence
1. Put on your “brakes” and stop for a moment of silence
2. Wait for God. Breathe deep for God's peace. 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
3. Open your heart to praise the Lord
You are a hiding place for me;
you preserve me from trouble;
you surround me with shouts of deliverance.
Psalm 32:7
Confession and repentance
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.”
“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
Matthew 9:35-38
And Jesus went throughout all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom and healing every disease and every affliction.36 When he saw the crowds, he had compassion for them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. 37 Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; 38 therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.”
Let's have a time to be still and give the Holy Spirit space to speak through the passage of scripture we have just read. Offer this time up to Jesus as you listen to him, while listening to "Gabriel's Oboe"
