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

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."

 My Listening
    The topic I received from Jesus is: "How do you know you are a mature Christian and not still a baby? "

      The topic I received from Jesus today is a very interesting, challenging and important one.

         I have a few questions to you from Jesus: 
         1. Do you understand what Jesus' assignment really is?
         2. Have you ever received Jesus' assignment to you?
         3. If you have, when was the last time Jesus gave His assignment to you?
         4. How can you receive Jesus' assignment in His own way and not your way?

         Well, you need to know that because Jesus is your Lord and King, He surely will give you assignments. It won't be a kind of "Mission Impossible" assignment 
         by a step by step way to train you to be His faithful and good disciples.

         I do not know when was the last time Jesus gave His assignment to you. But, today's all four passages teach us about how can we be more ready to receive Jesus' assignment, not sometimes, but daily and frequently! Do you believe that?

         So, here is the message I got today from the Lord of how to receive Jesus' daily assignment:
         1. Go to God's Holy Temple to receive strength as often as you can
             Today's Psalm 84:5-7

         

         1. Jesus is the only foundation and you need to be prepared for the fire to come to test whether your foundation is Jesus or other things
             Today's 1 Corinthians 3:10-17

         2. If you have Jesus as your foundation, you will enjoy worshipping God and celebrating Holy Communion with joy as often as you can
             Today's Ezra 6:15-16, 19-22

         3. You will receive Jesus' daily assignment of how to build God's field and His building when you come close to worship the Lord in His Holy Temple
            Today's 1 Corinthians 3:5-9

         4. You will go from strength to strength when you appears before the Lord in His Holy Temple as often as you can
             Today's Psalm 84:1-7

        You have not received Jesus assignment yet is because you have not lived out the pathway as described above!
    
     Dear Lord Jesus, 
     Help me to be able to receive your daily assignment following the way you reveal to me today. In Jesus name we pray. Amen. 
                  
      Reflect on these questions:
    1. Do you understand what Jesus' assignment really is?

      2. Have you ever received Jesus' assignment to you?

      3. If you have, when was the last time Jesus gave His assignment to you?

      4. How can you receive Jesus' assignment in His own way and not your way?

      5. What have you received from Jesus today?

    Praise and Thanksgiving
Let's give thanks for God with us. Let us praise Him:
