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.”
“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 124:1-5, Ezekiel 35:1-36:38; James 1:1-18, Proverbs 27:23-27)

Today's main passage:
2 Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, 3 because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. 4 Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. 5 If any of you lacks wisdom, you should ask God, who gives generously to all without finding fault, and it will be given to you. 6 But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind. 7 That person should not expect to receive anything from the Lord. 8 Such a person is double-minded and unstable in all they do. James 1:2-8
My Listening
The topic I received today is: Consider it pure joy whenever you face with trials of many kind
Really?
Yes, because:
1. This is the time for you to take this test of faith!
This test is to test whether you are only a person who cannot listen to God's voice, who is actually a double-minded, unstable religious person doing some kind of religious practices but not a true Christian who has an intimate relationship with Jesus, is able to listen and obey to His word and have Him as your Lord and King.
2. This work of this test is to produce perseverance in you in a very special way that you can be mature and complete and that you will lack nothing!
Yes, the Lord is your Shepherd, you will lack nothing!
I deeply believe this is the test that every Christian in Hong Kong has been taking the past five months!
Let us pray for them daily that this test of faith can finish its work and that they can pass in this test!
And, because of this test that it will produce many Christians who have Jesus as their Lord and King!
Wow! Is that pure joy! Great joy!

Dear Abba Father,
Help the people of Hong Kong that because of this test will produce many Christians who have Jesus as Lord and King. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.

1. What kind of inspiration and invitation have you received from today's message?
2. What is your next step to help the people of Hong Kong that because of this test will produce many Christians who have Jesus as Lord and King?
