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:
For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Gentile. For in the gospel the righteousness of God is revealed—a righteousness that is by faith from first to last,[e] just as it is written: “The righteous will live by faith.”

The topic I received today is: Catch this diamond opportunity to bring people to Jesus! Action right now!
Today's Romans 1:16-17 is perhaps one of the ten most used Bible golden verses. It tells us that the purpose of Paul's life is to spread the Gospel, reminding us that the purpose of our lives should be the same as to show forth the power of the Gospel so as to lead more people to be saved and have renewal.
I responded to Archbishop Melter's call to start my daily Noontime Prayer on March 18, one day after he started. I still remember vividly that I sent His Grace a WhatsApp message as you can see below. I wrote "golden opportunity", but I heard from Jesus clearly telling me this: "This is not only a golden opportunity, but a diamond opportunity!"
So, I changed the word "golden opportunity" to "diamond opportunity" as you can see below from the photo I took from my cel.:

Praise the Lord! Since March, Jesus used me to lead five people to receive Him as Saviour and Lord the first time and I baptized one of those five two monts ago. Then I baptized another one who received Jesus as Saviour and Lord last August!
Now I understand why Jesus told me this is the diamond opportunity to test our relationship with Him and for us to lead non-believers to Him!
How about you? Have you taken action yet?

Dear Lord Jesus,
Help us to grasp this diamond opportunity to show forth the power of the Gospel through our lives that many will be saved and renewed. In Jesus Name we pray, Amen.
Reflect on these questions:
1. What is your respond to my catch that this is the diamond opportunity? What is your response?
2. What is your next step to begin living out this kind of successful lifestyle?
