DAY 190 (2020) - Let Jesus control your tongue! (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 146:1-10,1 Chronicles 5:18-6:81; Acts 26:1-32; Proverbs 18:20-21)

     Today's main passage:

  From the fruit of their mouth a person’s stomach is filled;
    with the harvest of their lips they are satisfied.
 The tongue has the power of life and death,
    and those who love it will eat its fruit.
   
Proverbs 18:20-21


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 to Jesus as you listen to him.

    My Listening
    The topic I received today is: Let Jesus control your tongue

    Proverbs 18:20-21 gives us a very important warning and advice that we need to be careful when we speak, to use our tongue wisely.

    Especially in this pandemic, lots of people cannot control their tongues and have brought quite a number of serious damages to relationship of family and friends. The destruction force of the tongue is beyond we can estimate and can think of!

    The problem is as human we love to take control and so lots of time we are unable to control our frustration and anger. Unless you understand that the only way to control your tongue is to let Jesus to control your tongue.

    We say "Jesus is Lord", are you  just to say it or willing to live it out to ask Jesus to control your life and everything, including your tongue?


     Dear Lord Jesus,  
     Help us  to allow you to control our tongue each day that our lives will bring blessing and not cursing. In Jesus Name we pray, Amen.
       
     Reflect on these questions:
     1. How do you control your temper and your anger usually Have you learned a better way today?
        
      2.  What is your next step to begin living out this kind of successful lifestyle?
