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.”
"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 gifts 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 gifts to love God and His people. In Jesus Name I pray, Amen."
The Word, Time with Abba (Psalm 127:1-5, Ezekiel 44:1-45:12; 1 Peter 1:1-12; Proverbs 28:8-10)

Today's main passage:
Unless the Lord builds the house,
the builders labor in vain.Unless the Lord watches over the city,
the guards stand watch in vain.
In vain you rise early
and stay up late,toiling for food to eat—
for he grants sleep to those he loves.
Psalm 127:1-2
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: Remember to claim God's promise to have sweet sleep each day!
This pandemic becomes more and more serious leading many people not being able to have good sleep and full of burdens!
Today's Psalm 127:2 is one of three verses that I use quite frequently to help people to have good and sweet sleep successfully.
So, if you cannot have good sleep, please try to use these three verses to pray and ask the Lord to grant His promise to you and I am sure He will listen to your prayers and give you sweet sleep!
In vain you rise early
and stay up late,toiling for food to eat—
for he grants sleep to those he loves.
Psalm 127:2
In peace I will lie down and sleep,
for you alone, Lord, make me dwell in safety.
Psalm 4:8
When you lie down, you will not be afraid;
when you lie down, your sleep will be sweet.Proverbs 3:24
Dear Lord Jesus,
Help us to be sure that we are your dear children and that you promise us to protect us and we can have sweet sleep. Lord Jesus, we claim your promise to have sweet sleep. 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 Jesus?
