 安靜

1.  停下來. 靜一靜

2.  等候主. 深呼吸經歷主之平安, 享受神同在, 呼出你的憂慮


讚美及感恩
1.  思想最近使你開心歡笑的時刻
2.  為那些時刻及有關的人感恩

知罪,認罪,悔改 (Subjective Shifting Devotion Method 轉位靈修法  https://bishopsilas.blogspot.com/2009/08/count-down-5-subject-shifting-devotion.html

1. 求聖靈光照,使你知罪,願意認罪悔改 
     "親愛的聖靈, 求你光照我心靈的深處, 使我看見我的罪, 我和主耶穌的阻隔, 
        求你幫助, 奉主耶穌基督名求。阿們。"

2. 透過聖靈的工作, 安靜一刻, 省察自己, 之後祈禱:
     「親愛的主耶穌,感謝你為我的罪釘死在十字架上,我願意在你面前承認我的罪(凡聖靈光照到的,請逐一說出),求你用你的寶血赦免我的罪,我願意打開心門讓你作我的救主,求你救贖我,我願意一生跟隨你讓你作我生命的主,求你帶領我。聖靈,求你充滿我,使我得著恩賜及力量去侍奉主、見證主,奉主耶穌基督名求,阿們。」


3.  司徒德牧師每天早上的 "活像基督"祈禱 John Stott's daily prayer of Christlikeness (Christopher J.H. Wright, Cultivating the fruit of the Spirit. Downers Grove, IL: InterVarsity Press, 2017, 13)

   "天父,求你使我今天活在你的同在中,你一天比一天更喜悦我。
    主耶穌,求你使我今天能背起我的十字架去跟隨你。
    聖靈,求你在今天充滿我,使你的果子能彰顯在我的生命中: 仁愛,喜樂,和平,忍耐,恩慈,良善,信實,温柔及節制。"
             

親親爸父, 唱詩歌頌
 
今日親親親爸父經文連結: http://twa.pastoralcareschool.org/

親親爸父經文:(詩篇 113:1-9; 耶利米書 14:11-16:15; 帖撒羅尼迦前書 2:10-3:13;   箴言 25:1-5)


 我 們 作 基 督 的 使 徒 , 雖 然 可 以 叫 人 尊 重 , 卻 沒 有 向 你 們 或 向 別 人 求 榮 耀 ;

只 在 你 們 中 間 存 心 溫 柔 , 如 同 母 親 乳 養 自 己 的 孩 子 。


我 們 向 你 們 信 主 的 人 , 是 何 等 聖 潔 、 公 義 、 無 可 指 摘 , 有 你 們 作 見 證 , 也 有 神 作 見 證 。

你 們 也 曉 得 我 們 怎 樣 勸 勉 你 們 , 安 慰 你 們 , 囑 咐 你 們 各 人 , 好 像 父 親 待 自 己 的 兒 女 一 樣 ,

要 叫 你 們 行 事 對 得 起 那 召 你 們 進 他 國 、 得 他 榮 耀 的 神 。

帖撒羅尼迦前書 2:6-7,10-12


現在讓你有一個安靜的時刻,給聖靈一個空間,讓主耶穌可以藉着剛才讀過的經文,親自對你説話。

 我的聆聽
     今日我從主耶穌領受的主題是:  如何能在大難之中,作眾人父母親的榜樣?

     昨天的信息是我們如何在大患難中作眾人的榜樣,保羅繼續描述這榜樣是有如父母親一樣的去溫柔地乳養,關愛,教導及栽培自己的兒女一樣的榜樣。

    記得這段經文是2009年7月主吩咐我帶因信Iggy到英國探望我的屬靈父親John Stott時,Uncle John告訴我這是主耶穌告訴他給我在祝聖主教前二個月的説話,就是我做了主教以後要活出的,做個好的屬靈父親及母親!

     願望你能在此大難之中,作個眾人父母親的榜樣,榮耀主名!

     親愛的主耶穌, 
     求你使我們能在此大難之中,作個眾人父母親的榜樣,榮耀你的名,奉主耶穌基督名求,阿們。
省察問題 
 1. 今日的信息對你有何啓發?  主耶穌現在對你説甚麽話?

 2. 下一步是什麼行動?
   
     家庭角落

找機會與家人一起分享今日的領受。

       親愛主教:
我是陳永萍細佬陳永安,兩年前,我家姐向我傳福音,將你每天親親爸父早午禱傳給我,主感動我,我每天以你的講道,成為禱告,幾個月後,收到壞消息,患上前列腺癌,擴散到淋巴和骨,家姐得知問我信唔信耶穌,我深信主會醫治我的病,我信,她立刻同我決志信主。
這年幾多,打針,食標靶藥,當然有痛苦經歷,但我依靠主,不住禱告,念經文,每次都安然渡過,感謝主,癌細胞如同正常人,實在感恩,我家在沙田,家姐帶我去一城浸信會,我參加崇拜,團契,修讀幼苗成長課程,經過牧師同意,可以上冼禮班,將會在四月中冼禮啦,成為真正的基督徒。
我亦有將主教早午禱傳給妹妹和哥哥,他們都有願意的心去聆聽,希望主感動他們。
再次多謝主教傳達訊息,讓我每天都有靈修時間學習親近主,接近主。
求主保守看顧加拿大聖公會主教及各弟兄姊妹身體健康,一生一世必有恩惠,願主祝福你們。
陳永安敬上

How can you become a model of a father and a mother in the midst of severe suffering?

  














Please click this link for the video version of today's blog :



Please click this link for today's Time with Abba one year Bible four passages:


Nicky Gumbel's Bible in one year today:


Bible in one year by Nicky Gumbel:



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) 

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 sins 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."

3.  John Stott's daily prayer of Christlikeness (Christopher J.H. Wright, Cultivating the fruit of the Spirit. Downers Grove, IL: InterVarsity Press, 2017, 13)

(Please click this link to see how God used John Stott to change my life:https://bishopsilas.blogspot.com/2009/07/

           "Heavenly Father, I pray that this day I may live in your presence and please you more and more.

             Lord Jesus, I pray that this day I may take up my cross and follow you.

             Holy Spirit, I pray that this day you will fill me with yourself and cause your fruit to ripen in my life: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control."


The Word, Time with Abba (Psalm 113:1-9, Jeremiah 14:11-16:15;  1 Thessalonians 2:10-3:13; Proverbs 25:1-5)


    Today's key passage: 

      We were not looking for praise from people, not from you or anyone else, even though as apostles of Christ we could have asserted our authority. Instead, we were like young children among you.Just as a nursing mother cares for her children, so we cared for you.

    You are witnesses, and so is God, of how holy, righteous and blameless we were among you who believed. For you know that we dealt with each of you as a father deals with his own children, encouraging, comforting and urging you to live lives worthy of God, who calls you into his kingdom and glory.

      1 Thessalonians 2:6-7,10-12


    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  isHow can you become a model of a father and a mother in the midst of severe suffering?

    Yesterday's theme is "How can you become a model in the midst of severe suffering?". Paul continues to explain what kind of model does we really need to follow in chapter 2. It is a model like a nursing mother's love and care and a father loving his children to encourage, comfort and urging them to live lives worthy of God.

    
   I still remember very vividly when Jesus told me that I needed to bring our elder son Ignatius to visit my spiritual father John Stott in England July 2009.What Uncle John gave me as a message from Jesus to me two months before I was going to be consecrated as a bishop was today's passage! And, this is what I have been trying my best to do the past 14 years as a bishop!

    May you be able to become the model of a mother and a father  in the midst of this severe suffering to glorify the name of Jesus!

    
     Dear Lord Jesus,  
    Help us to be able to become the model of a mother and a father in the midst of this severe suffering to glorify your mighty name. 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, to be holy - that is to do what Jesus wants you to do and not to do what Jesus wants you not to do?
    
      Family Corner:
     Find an opportunity to share with your family the importance of today's message.
