DAY 317 (2019) - Throw off everything that hinders, with perseverance fixing your eyes on Jesus (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

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 shine on you that you are able to discover your sins and be willing to repent:

     “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 121:1-8, Ezekiel 29:1-30:26; Hebrews 11:32-12:13, Proverbs 27:17)


Today's main passage:
Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith.     Hebrews 12:1-2

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.

My Listening
The topic I received today is: Throw off everything that hinders, with perseverance fixing your eyes on Jesus

Hebrews 12:1-2 is one of my most favourite Biblical verses and one of my most useful verses!

Our Lord Jesus Christ has been using these two verses to help me to get through many time of loneliness, helplessness, burnout, hopelessness and to have renewal!

The key is actually: fixing your eyes on Jesus!

It means that your relationship with Jesus is like a distance so close that you can fix your eyes on Him!

What is your relationship with Jesus? Is it so close as you can fix your eyes on Him?


Dear Abba Father,
    Help us to have that closeness as we can fix our eyes on Jesus. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.

Reflect on these questions:

1. What kind of inspiration and invitation have you received from today's message?

2. What is your next step to have that closeness as you can fix your eyes on Him?
