You may begin with a song to praise the Lord and complete you devotion by singing another praise song.

聖 靈 向 眾 教 會 所 說 的 話 , 凡 有 耳 的 , 就 應 當 聽 !

                                                              啟示錄音 2 : 7

He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. 

                                                   Revelation 2: 7

Please click the links to Revelation 1

    What I got today from Jesus is: do you have an ear?

    What I got from Jesus is life or death question. What if we do not have an ear to hear? Hear what? Hear what the Holy Spirit wants to tell you.

    This chapter starts with the warning from John to the seven churches. Starts with the centre of Paul's hard labour and work - Ephesus. Do you know how much time and work did Paul put to the church in Ephesus? Three whole years and then Ephesus became a centre of sending out bishops, clergy and top leaders. And, even the church in Ephesus lost their first love to Christ! Wow! That's a big deal!

    Do you have an ear to hear what the Holy Spirit wants to tell you now? Have you been doing any of the wrong did of that three churches?

Dear Lord Jesus,
Lead us to open our ears to listen to what the Holy Spirit wants to tell us so that we can repent and do your Kingdom ministries.  In Jesus name we pray. Amen.

DAY 326 - Jesus Is The Past, The Present And The Future! Fear Not!

主 神 說 : 我 是 阿 拉 法 , 我 是 俄 梅 戛 , ( 阿 拉 法 , 俄 梅 戛 : 是 希 利 尼 字 母 首 末 二 字 ) , 是 昔 在 、 今 在 、 以 後 永 在 的 全 能 者 。

                                                              啟示錄音 1 : 8

 “I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.”

                                                   Revelation 1: 8

Please click the links to Revelation 1

    What I got today from Jesus is: Jesus is the past, the present and the future! Fear not!

    What I got from Jesus is an assurance of our everything if we are in Christ. Why? Because He is the Alpha and the Omega. He has total control of the past, the present and the future.

     Do you believe that? Have you been experiencing that? Why do we have all those kind of insecurity, doubt and fear of what is happening to our lives, what is going to happen to our lives? Why we are still being trapped by our dark past and cannot come into the light of Christ in His daily presence so that we are sure we will have a bright and blessed future?

     Remember, Jesus is the past, the present and the future!
     Fear not! 

Dear Lord Jesus,
Lead us to know and experience that you are the past, the present and the future so that we can be used by you to extend your mighty Kingdom.  In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
