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:
He who finds a wife finds what is good
and receives favor from the Lord.
Proverbs 18:22
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: Love and cherish your wife then you know what is good!
Yesterday's 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.
Today'a Proverbs 18:22 give us another advice on using our tongue wisely, but this time is to our spouse. We need to use our tongue wisely in order that we can listen more, accept more, forgive more, build up more and to establish a more intimate relationship with God and with each others.
Especially in this pandemic, lots of people cannot control their tongues and have brought quite a number of serious damages to their marriage.
According to some statistics, the rate of divorce has been rising drastically the past few months since the beginning of the pandemic. The destruction force of the tongue is beyond we can estimate and can think of!
One of Satan's main job is to destroy the relationship of husbands and wives. How can we as human beings be able to win over Satan's power!
So, the only way is both husband and wife be willing to be close to God so that they can be more closer together. Then, Satan has no way to jam in!
We need to start our first step to get rid of Satan's pursue. The catch I received from Jesus today is for the couple to hold hands to pray before they go to sleep. Just this simple act will bring protection and lots of blessings!
Then, if you want to have the second step, my catch today is that both husband and wife start to have Time with Abba scribing God's word from the Bible and then pray together. Wow! If you can do that, I do not think Satan will have any way to sever your relationship with your spouse!

Dear Lord Jesus,
Help us to cherish and love our spouse that our marriage will bring much blessings. In Jesus Name we pray, Amen.
Reflect on these questions:
