 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://api.pastoralcareschool.org/twa/

親親爸父經文:(詩篇 133:1-3; 但以理書 8:1-27; 約翰一書 2:1-17; 箴言 28:25-26)

 不 要 愛 世 界 和 世 界 上 的 事 。 人 若 愛 世 界 ， 愛 父 的 心 就 不 在 他 裡 面 了 。

16 因 為 凡 世 界 上 的 事 ， 就 像 肉 體 的 情 慾 ， 眼 目 的 情 慾 ， 並 今 生 的 驕 傲 ， 都 不 是 從 父 來 的 ， 乃 是 從 世 界 來 的 。

17 這 世 界 和 其 上 的 情 慾 都 要 過 去 ， 惟 獨 遵 行 神 旨 意 的 ， 是 永 遠 常 存 。

約翰一書 2:15-17

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: 怎樣可以脫離生命中揮之不去的困擾?

     這充滿黑暗及孤獨之世界使不少的人在困擾中，日日在重重憂慮中，每天都不容易過!

    今日約翰一書 2:15-17的信息是一個很大的提點及指引，因為世界上的困擾，包括過去三年多的疫情，始終都會過去，如果我們能每日多點時間進入神的愛中，打開聖經讓主對你說話，開口唱詩與眾天使天軍一起讚美主，謙卑的承認在這整個世界的黑暗沮喪中，人無力自救，我們需要救主的拯救，我担保你一定能脫困，並會藉這些困擾更愛主，每天更享受接近主，更願意付出你的愛去愛你的家庭，你的教會，和有需要的人!

     親愛的主耶穌, 

     求你讓我們每天能更愛你，每天更享受接近你，更願意付出我們的愛去愛我們的家庭，我們的教會，和有需要的人，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. 你的下一步是什麼行動?

   

     家庭角落

找機會與家人一起分享今日的領受。

Bible in one year by Nicky Gumbel:

https://bibleinoneyear.org/en/

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) 

https://bishopsilas.blogspot.com/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 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 133:1-3, Daniel 8:1-27; 1 John 2:1-17; Proverbs 28:25-26)

    Today's key passage: 

     Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in them. 16 For everything in the world—the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life—comes not from the Father but from the world. 17 The world and its desires pass away, but whoever does the will of God lives forever.

      1 John 2:15-17

     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:

    How to get away from all kinds of worries and anxiety?

    The pandemic and all kinds of calamities pull many people into lots of anxiety and worries each day!

    Today's 1 John 2:15-17 gives us a great encouragement and direction telling us that everything in this world will be pass soon, including this pandemic. If we can spend more time to open the Bible to dip into the intimate relationship with the Lord each day and to humbly admitting that this is the time that we as human cannot save ourselves and we really need our Saviour to take us out of this darkness, then everything will be changed!

    Your attitude will be changed! Your anxiety will be gone!

    Because of those difficulties, you will love the Lord more, to enjoy more time to be close to the Lord, to be willing to love your family, your church and those who are in desperate need!

     

     Dear Lord Jesus,

    In the midst of all those worries, help us to love you more, to enjoy more time to be close to you, to be willing to love our family, our church and those who are in desperate need. 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?
