DAY 297 (2020) - Be a four generations discipler for Jesus! (Please go to FaceBook(silastyng) to watch my video of this blog)

 



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
3.   Sing a song to praise God (you are welcome to use "Father, I adore you" which I have been singing every morning for the past 20 years or your own choice to praise God)

          Father, I adore You, lay my life before You, how I love You.
          Jesus, I adore You, lay my life before You, how I love You.
          Spirit, I adore You, lay my life before You, how I love You.
      

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."

    Today's main passage:

    You then, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many witnesses entrust to reliable people who will also be qualified to teach others.

2 Timothy 2:1-2



    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 from Jesus is: Be a four generations discipler for Jesus!

    Today's 2 Timothy 2:1-2 tells us that if Timothy can be strong and not timid to take up the three appointed positions as Herald(Evangelist), Apostle(Planter), Teacher(Discipler, Mentor), he will follow Paul's example to become a four generations discipler/mentor.

    Why? Because we can find that from 2 Timothy 2:2:
    1st generation: Paul
    2nd generation: Timothy, discipled by Paul
    3rd generation: Timothy's disciple, discipled by Timothy
    4th generation: Timonthy's disciple's disciple, discipled by Timothy's disciple

    May you be able to live out that three positions to raise up three more generations disciples for Jesus to enjoy the blessing of being a four generations discipler.

    And, I have a great joy to find out that Paul is the one who live out Jesus' four stages of the growing seed as reflect in our AM Canada's four years MicroMacro Discipling plan as:
    1st year:Raising up Disciplers
    2nd year:Raising up Evangelists
    3rd year:Raising up Mentors
    4th year:Raising up Planters

    




    


      Dear Lord Jesus,
    Help us to be willing to fan into flame by you so that we can live out these three appointed positions so that we can be a four generations discipler for you. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
     
     Reflect on these questions:
     1. What inspiration have you received from today's catch and what have you heard from Jesus now?
      
      2.  What is your next step to be more closer to God?
