DAY 321 (2019) - Hong Kong will live just like that (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 124:6-8, Ezekiel 37:1-38:23; James 1:19-2:17, Proverbs 28:1)


Today's main passage:
   Then he said to me, “Prophesy to the breath; prophesy, son of man, and say to it, ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: Come, breath, from the four winds and breathe into these slain, that they may live.’”10 So I prophesied as he commanded me, and breath entered them; they came to life and stood up on their feet—a vast army.
11 Then he said to me: “Son of man, these bones are the people of Israel. They say, ‘Our bones are dried up and our hope is gone; we are cut off.’ 12 Therefore prophesy and say to them: ‘This is what the Sovereign Lord says: My people, I am going to open your graves and bring you up from them; I will bring you back to the land of Israel.13 Then you, my people, will know that I am the Lord, when I open your graves and bring you up from them. 14 I will put my Spirit in you and you will live, and I will settle you in your own land. Then you will know that I the Lord have spoken, and I have done it, declares the Lord.’”     Ezekiel 37:9-14

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: Hong Kong will live just like that

I arrived in Hong Kong last Wednesday to attend the 45th Anniversary of my High School graduation. It is so sad that I walked into the midst of the most serious situation of Hong Kong since the unstable condition started five months ago!

I see brick everywhere on the streets, many MTR stations closed down and everyone in Hong Kong are full of worries or even hopeless and the city is like a dead city!

Today's Ezekiel gives us lots of hope! If the Israelites who was like dry bones could live, Hong Kong can also live like that!

If you want to live, then the steps are:
1. To admit that you are dry bones
    You need to confess your sins and repent, not being a religious people again but to be a true Christian

2. Receive the breath of God to fill you

3. Allow Jesus to hold your hand and lead you out of the grave

4. To become a member of God's vast army

Let us grasp this opportunity to have yourself and other people to experience these four steps, then, Hong Kong will live just like that!

Dear Abba Father,
    Help us to grasp this opportunity to have ourselves and other people to experience those four steps and that Hong Kong will live just like that. 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 grasp this opportunity to have yourself and other people to experience those four steps and that Hong Kong will live just like that?

Family Corner:
Find an opportunity to share with your family the importance of today's message?
