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."

My Listening
The topic I received today is: Praise the Lord, for He reigns!
Today's Psalm is the last one is the book of Psalm. What I feel is like the last 10 seconds of a firework, highest, largest, most beautiful and colourful! Usually when that happen, everyone standing there will cry out loudly:
Wow! Wow! Wow!
Yes, that's how David wanted to tell everyone in his last song of Psalm that the most beautiful, most powerful and the best thing in life for us to do is to use all we have to praise the Lord!
Why? We can find the answer in today's 1 Chronicles: because the Lord reigns!
I am so thankful with all my heart and lots of tears to the Lord today because today is the 35th Wedding Anniversary of Michelle and me! Wow! Wow! Wow!
I have to use all I have to praise the Lord because He reigns in our marriage and in our family!
Could you use one minute now to give thanks to the Lord for us and bless us, please?

Dear Lord Jesus,
Thanks you for giving me Michelle who is really a very, very good wife. And giving me an anointed family. May you bless all husbands and wives and their families and to lead more people to know the best in life is to use all we have to praise you. In Jesus Name we pray, Amen.
Reflect on these questions:
1. What is your respond to learn that the best in life is to use all you have to praise the Lord?
2. What is your next step to begin living out this kind of successful lifestyle?
