DAY 107 (2020) - Because you follow the Lord wholeheartedly, you can drive out the strongest enemy! (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 and having Jesus as my Lord. 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 55:9-15, Joshua 13:1-14:15; Luke 18:1-17; Proverbs 13:7-8)


    Today's main passage:
    Now the people of Judah approached Joshua at Gilgal, and Caleb son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite said to him, “You know what the Lord said to Moses the man of God at Kadesh Barnea about you and me. I was forty years old when Moses the servant of the Lord sent me from Kadesh Barnea to explore the land. And I brought him back a report according to my convictions, but my fellow Israelites who went up with me made the hearts of the people melt in fear. I, however, followed the Lord my God wholeheartedly. So on that day Moses swore to me, ‘The land on which your feet have walked will be your inheritance and that of your children forever, because you have followed the Lord my God wholeheartedly.’
10 “Now then, just as the Lord promised, he has kept me alive for forty-five years since the time he said this to Moses, while Israel moved about in the wilderness. So here I am today, eighty-five years old! 11 I am still as strong today as the day Moses sent me out; I’m just as vigorous to go out to battle now as I was then. 12 Now give me this hill country that the Lord promised me that day. You yourself heard then that the Anakites were there and their cities were large and fortified,but, the Lord helping me, I will drive them out just as he said.”
13 Then Joshua blessed Caleb son of Jephunneh and gave him Hebronas his inheritance. 14 So Hebron has belonged to Caleb son of Jephunneh the Kenizzite ever since, because he followed the Lord, the God of Israel, wholeheartedly. 15 (Hebron used to be called Kiriath Arbaafter Arba, who was the greatest man among the Anakites.)
Then the land had rest from war.
Joshua 14:6-15


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 from Jesus is: Because you follow the Lord wholeheartedly, you can drive out the strongest enemy!

    After Joshua entered the Promised Land, the only place that no one dare to attack was the land occupied by the strongest Anakites!

    But, eighty-five years old Calab was willing to do this mission impossible and successfully drove out the Anakites. What is the secret of his success?

    Because he followed the Lord wholeheartedly and when God is with him, there is nothing that cannot be done!

    May you be able to follow Caleb's model to follow the Lord wholeheartedly to destroy the attack COVID-19 brings to you, your church and this world!

    
     Dear Lord Jesus,  
     Help us to be able to follow Caleb's model to follow you wholeheartedly to destroy the attack of COVID-19. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
    
     Reflect on these questions:
     1. How can you follow the model of Caleb to follow Jesus wholeheartedly
       
      2.  What is your next step to make that happen?
