Remember your leaders, who spoke the word of God to you. Consider the outcome of their way of life and imitate their faith. Hebrews 13: 7

What I heard from Jesus today is: Love Your Pastors!

Pastor Rick Warren chose Hebrew 13: 7 as the text to preach in my consecration as a bishop in September 9, 2009. It's not easy for us to love our pastors in such a way so that they are being appreciated, supported, followed, loved and imitated. Satan's main scheme to destroy a church is to mislead people so that they cannot do those positive acts but instead do the reverse way: bad mouth, speak against, deserted, hate and destroy. Don't step into this kind of mine field of Satan!

Love your pastors that you can do the three things the author teaches:

1. To Remember: that is to appreciate, to think of, to pray, to obey and submit to their authority(v.17).

2. To Consider: that is to look carefully at their good example, their lifestyle and their finishing well

3. To imitate: that is to follow, to copy and to imitate of their good example

May I suggest that you pray for your pastors at least once everyday. Because if you can pray for them then you have a lesser chance to bad mouth, speak against, deserted, hate and destroy them. Right? Now, let's pray for your pastors. And please pray for me at least once everyday!

Dear Lord Jesus,

Help us to love our pastors and be willing to pray for them at least once everyday. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.

Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Hebrews 12: 1-2

What I heard from Jesus today is: Run! Stay focused!

I was once a member of the 4x100 meters team for Chung Chi College, Chinese University of Hong Kong. Because of my losing of focus and nearly dropped the baton we lost a gold medal! That picture in 1975 still hurting me a lot. Why I lost focus? Lots of reasons, like too much pressure, the guy next to me ran faster than me, I desperately wanted my first gold medal... I was trained for months to focus and to fix my eyes on the finishing point and to pass the baton or to dash through the red line. But I was too anxious to win and made my whole school team lost a gold medal that they made that almost every year in the inter-university athletic meeting.

This chapter gives us a picture of a great race, a race of our life journey cheering by a great cloud of witnesses just like in an athletic meeting. "Run, run, Silas run! Run, run, Silas run!" "Wow! Victory! VICTORY!" We look at too many things distracting us from our life-long run.

Run! Stay focused! Stay focused on Jesus! It's Jesus, do you see Him? Can you see Him?

Run! Stay focused! Stay focused on Jesus!

Dear Lord Jesus,

Help us to stay focus on you and run a good race for you. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.

Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. This is what the ancients were commended for. By faith we understand that the universe was formed at God's command, so that what is seen was not made out of what was visible. Hebrews 11: 1-3

What I heard from Jesus today is: By faith you can enjoy each day!

"By faith" occurs 18 times in this chapter. It was by faith that all those godly men and women experienced God. It is by faith that we have a daily intimate relationship with God. There are so many people in this world live each day in pain and yet they got lots of material things. There are so many Christians in this world live in poverty and sufferings and yet they are so joyful enjoying each day. What kind of person you are? Remember, by faith you can enjoy each day!

Dear Lord Jesus,

Help us to live by faith each day that we can enjoy everyday as a good day blessed by you. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.

Therefore, brothers, since we have confidence to enter the Most Holy Place by the blood of Jesus, by a new and living way opened for us through the curtain, that is, his body, and since we have a great priest over the house of God, let us draw near to God with a sincere heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience and having our bodies washed with pure water. Hebrews 10: 19-23

What I heard from Jesus today is: By the blood of Jesus, let's draw near to God!

Our sinful nature always leads us to a dead end. By the blood of Jesus we can draw near to God and to each others. We need lots of perseverance to do God's will, but we will surely receive what He has promised- the righteous one will live by faith.

Don't shrink back but to believe and saved.

Dear Lord Jesus,

Pour down your blood on us so that we can draw near to you and to each others. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
