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
"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."
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.”
“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."

My Listening
The message I got today from our Lord Jesus Christ is "God says, all done!".
Today I copied too many pages, seven pages! I just could not stop with so many God's personal words to King Abimelek, Abraham and Hagar!
There are so many people today including Christians think that God does not speak to us any more! How sad!
I do hope that you can go to my seven pages and get some personal messages from God through that seven pages.
My two years and three months old grand-daughter Zoe likes to say "All done!" when she finish eating or playing with me.
That was the vision and picture this morning when I was coping His Word. He gave me Zoe's word "All done!" assuring me that when I try my best to be with Him, listen and obey, really OBEY!
Then: ALL DONE!!!

Dear Lord Jesus,
Help us to know that when you speak and we are willing to listen and obey, we will surely experience everything will be accomplished. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
Reflect on these questions:
1. Have you listen to the Lord's saying to you recently? If you have not, do you know what is the problem to block you from hearing God?
2. How can you receive more words from God everyday?
3. What have you received from Jesus today?
Let us praise the Lord:
