OT DAY 413 - A Tree Which Yields Its Fruit in Season (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

3.   Open your heart to praise the Lord

  The Lord is gracious and merciful,

        slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love.  
       The Lord is good to all,
         and his mercy is over all that he has made.

                    Psalm 145:8-9

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 1)

English(ESV): https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=psalm+1&version=ESV

Blessed is the man
    who walks not in the counsel of the wicked,
nor stands in the way of sinners,
    nor sits in the seat of scoffers;
2 but his delight is in the law[b] of the Lord,
    and on his law he meditates day and night.

3 He is like a tree
    planted by streams of water
that yields its fruit in its season,
    and its leaf does not wither.
In all that he does, he prospers.
4 The wicked are not so,
    but are like chaff that the wind drives away.

⁵ Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment,
    nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous;
⁶ for the Lord knows the way of the righteous,
    but the way of the wicked will perish.

                    Psalm 1: 1-6

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

           Today, January 1, 2016 Richmond Emmanuel Church starts our 366 days daily prayer meeting for the whole year. We had more than 30 brothers and sisters came to copying the Bible at 6:30a.m. and then 44 brothers and sisters came for the Prayer Meeting at 7a.m.

Our time table for the whole year of 2016 is:

Monday to Friday   7a.m. to 7:30a.m. Prayer meeting

                          (6:30a.m. to 7a.m. copying the Bible using Time with Abba one year read the whole Bible list as you can see below)

Saturday              9a.m. to 9:45a.m. Prayer Meeting(8a.m. to 9a.m. Copying the Bible)

Sunday                8a.m. to 8:30a.m. (half an hour before our 1st Sunday service)

         This is such a good way to start our first day of new year. We also have Rev. & Mrs. Peter Klenner, Rev. Dr. & Mrs. Ed Hird to be with us this morning. And, we celebrated Rev. Dr. Philip Tse's 60th birthday with Rev. Peter Klenner prayed for Philip.

          I do hope and pray that we will have lots of REC brothers and sisters coming to see God and worship God. If you are in Vancouver, you are welcome to join us!

        May you have a blessed and anointed year 2016!

Dear Lord Jesus, 

    Help us to cherish the opportunity to see you and worship you. In Jesus’ name we pray, Amen.
