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."

Please see below the passages I copied today:
Why He will cut off wicked and evildoer every morning?
What I receive is that our intimate relationship with Him as it is describes in today's Song of Songs of that address "My Beloved! My Darling! My Bride!" will lead us to be in the city of the Lord and that we will be protect in His city and He will show forth His hand to silence all the wicked!
Reflect on these questions:
My Listening
The topic I received from Jesus is: "My Beloved! My Darling! My Bride! "
Can you believe God uses these address to call us:
"My Beloved! My Darling! My Bride! "
Ya, that's how today's Song of Songs tells us, wow!
That's how intimate God wants to be with us and us to be with Him!
With this relationship, then what it describes in today's Psalm 101: 1-8 will happen in our daily lives especially verse 8:
"Every morning I will put to silence all the wicked in the land;
I will cut off every evildoer from the city of the Lord."
Why He will cut off wicked and evildoer every morning?
What does He do every morning? Where?
What I receive is that our intimate relationship with Him as it is describes in today's Song of Songs of that address "My Beloved! My Darling! My Bride!" will lead us to be in the city of the Lord and that we will be protect in His city and He will show forth His hand to silence all the wicked!
So, how do we know that we have that kind of intimate relationship with the Lord? The answer is from today's 2 Corinthians 8:22-24, it is "the proof of your love"! It is how we offer our time and money to our church beyond our human capacity to make Christ's Name be glorified.
May you hear the sweet voice of God everyday calling you:
"My Beloved! My Darling! My Bride! " And, you do not feel uneasy or ridiculous, but feeling you are being loved and secure!
Dear Lord Jesus,
Help me to be able to hear your intimate calling each day so that I can have that proof of my love to you in my daily life. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
Reflect on these questions:
1. Do you have that kind of sweet and intimate relationship with the Lord each day?
2. What kind of proof of your love you can present to make sure that you are in this intimate relationship?
3. What have you received from Jesus today?
Praise and Thanksgiving
