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.”
"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."
“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."

Today's main passage:
8 When he comes, he will prove the world to be in the wrong about sin and righteousness and judgment: 9 about sin,because people do not believe in me; 10 about righteousness, because I am going to the Father, where you can see me no longer; 11 and about judgment, because the prince of this world now stands condemned.
12 “I have much more to say to you, more than you can now bear. 13 But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth.He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come.
John 16:8-13
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: The Holy Spirit proves your wrongs and guides you into all the truth
Today's John records Jesus' saying about the two main works of the Holy Spirit:
1. To prove our wrongs so that we can confess our sins
2. To guide us into all the truth
In today's 2 Samuel shows us how the Holy Spirit worked as Jesus says, even in the Old Testament time.
I think David would have the same deadly consequence as King Saul if he did not accepted it was God who sent Nathan the Prophet to him to prove his sins using a parable, and even he accepted that but if David did not accept the prompting of the Holy Spirit to acknowledge his sins and confess!
May we be willing to welcome the works of the Holy Spirit each day to prove our sins and to truly confess and repent; may we be willing to welcome the guidance of the Holy Spirit each day into all the truth so that we know God's standard and what is right and wrong in His sight and to follow Jesus into the way of eternal life!

Dear Holy Spirit,
Shine on us to prove our wrongs so that we have a chance to confess and repent. Come Holy Spirit, come, fill us and guide us into all the truth so that we know God's standard and what is right and wrong in His sight and to follow Jesus into the way of eternal life. In Jesus Name we pray, Amen.
Reflect on these questions:
1. What have you got from today's topic "The Holy Spirit proves your wrongs and guides you into all the truth"?
2. What is your next step to make that happen?
