Golden Verse 金句

     What I got from Jesus is: Streams of living water will flow from within him!

     

     What I got from Jesus today is an eye opening experience for us to know what a difference it could make if we really believe in Jesus. Jesus reminds me of a picture and a passage in Jeremiah.

     First, the picture. I see an empty water tank with people lining up for water but no water to come out. Then I see water filling up the tank giving all the people who line up to quench their thirst. This picture showing how we can be filled by the Holy Spirit each day like the filling up of the water tank that many people can have water to drink, living water to nourish our soul!

     Second, Jeremiah 2:13:
     
     "My people have committed two sins:
      They have forsaken me, the spring of living water,
      and have dug their own cisterns, broken cisterns that
      cannot hold water."                           

          

     This verse reminds me of what we could do but in reality we have been dried up because we left the spring of living water. We are burn out and we do not have living water to give to other people.

     Do you have streams of living water flow from within you?
     If you do not have that streams, what does that mean?

Dear Lord Jesus,

Lead us to be close to you each day that streams of water can flow from within us. Change our hearts that we won't take the position of a judge to judge people around us. Stop us from judging by mere appearances and lead us to make a right judgement.  In Jesus name we pray. Amen.

**NEW link for the 12th 100 days 24 hours prayer campaign (from December 04, 2012 to March 14, 2013)

The easiest way is to take one hour slot for the whole week. What you need to do is very simple. Choose one dayThe easiest way is to take one hour slot for the whole week to pray for me, my family and my ministry, remembering the ministry of ACiC(ACiC has two Networks: ACiC, Anglican Coalition in Canada and AI, Asian Initiative). You may use the whole hour in prayer or you can still do you work in your office but use as much time as you can to pray and the other time work prayerfully that hour to pray for our ministry. This campaign is also to teach you that you need somebody to pray for you daily. I have been prayed for hourly the past 1,200 days and I have never experienced this kind of peace and protection before. It's just beyond words can express. If I did not listen and obey to Jesus call 1,200 days ago to start this prayer movement, I think I would be pulled into darkness and discouragement already! I deeply believe that this is a way to draw as many participation as we can in prayers. I encourage you to participate. We need you to join us! Trust in the power of prayers!
