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."

The Word, Time with Abba (Psalm 18:25-36; Exodus 13:17-15:18; Matthew  21:23-46, Proverbs 6:16-19)

 My Listening
     The topic I received  from Jesus today is"There is no short cut to follow Jesus"

 Yesterday we learned how God would reward you and how could we receive those rewards. Today, Jesus wants you to understand there is no short cut for you to receive God's rewards because there is no short cut to follow Jesus!


1. God do not want you to have short cut to follow Him (Exodus 13:17-18)
    a. You need time to build up the trusting relationship with God and won't turn back to your old self, old path 
    b. God gives you a vineyard to work (Matthew 21:33-34)
        A farmer needs lots of time, patience and lots of work to be fruitful
        
2.  God will protect you and build walls and fences, watchtowers, be your shield and teach you how to battle and win:
     a. God will protect you and build walls and fences, watchtowers(Matthew 21:33)
     b. God will be your shield and teach you how to battle and win (Psalm 18:29-30, 35-36: Exodus 14:13-14,19-20)
    
3.  What do you have to do to claim God's promise and rewards? 
     a. Do not take away or kill God's prophets from centuries ago until nowadays. Those servants of God He prepares to help you and to deliver His words to you, including Jesus Himself (Matthew21:34-43)
    b. Do not do things God hates  (Proverbs 6:16-19)
    c. If you can live out 3a,3b,then, when you are in crisis or in battle, you just need to be still and God will fight for you! Wow!  (Exodus 14:13-14,19-20)

     Dear Lord Jesus, 
    Help us to be willing to spend more time with you each day and not take the spiritual short cut so that we can work hard on the field you prepare for us to work and be fruitful. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.  

Reflect on these questions: 
1. How can you be willing to spend more time with Jesus each day and not take the spiritual short cut so that we can work hard on the field the Lord prepares for us to work and be fruitful?

2. What is your next step for this to happen?

3.  What have you heard from Jesus today?
