Today's Reading: Exodus 9

Yet Pharaoh's heart was unyielding and he would not let the people go. Exodus 9: 7

What I heard from Jesus today is an astonishing question: What if you were Pharaoh? I started to collect the characteristics of Pharaoh in this chapter and they are as follows:

1. Not letting go of something or some people that God wants you to let go so that worshipping God is not happening. (v. 1)

2. Unyielding heart. (v. 7)

3. Ignore the word of the Lord. (v. 21)

4. Acknowledge sin but keep on sinning. (v. 27, 34)

5. Hardening of the heart. (v. 34)

If we have the above characteristics, then we are Pharaoh! Change before it is too late!

Dear Lord Jesus,

Help me to change into your likeness and not stepping into Pharaoh's steps. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.

Welcome! The purpose of this blog is to encourage Christians to have daily devotion - a wonderful and intimate time with Jesus.

There are three reasons for you to use this blog as your daily devotion:

1. A healthy spiritual diet - One chapter of the Bible daily. We really need at least one chapter of Bible daily so that we are well fed.

2. A good example of Spiritual Journaling - What I have committed for 1,189 days(the Bible has 1,189 chapters)to write this daily post is not for teaching purposes but this is my daily spiritual journal - I write down what I hear from Jesus and how I experience His intimate relationship with me each day. I have launched a wide-spectrum research on daily devotion and have found out that there are less than 10% of Christians that are having daily devotion. Out of that 10%, many having daily devotion are doing so because of guilt (they know that they are Christians and need to have daily devotion and feel guilty if they don’t do that), duty (they need to fulfill their duty as a Christian) or study(lots of Christians primarily use their daily devotion as a time to study the Bible). I do pray and hope that you will make up your mind to have a relational daily devotion so that you can have an intimate time with Jesus. I pray that you will write your own spiritual journal as well.

3. An online discipler – One of the reasons that so many Christians do not have daily devotion is because they do not have a discipler. A discipler can help them build up this basic element of discipleship when they first become Christians. The best way for you is to have a discipler to walk with you for a certain period of time so that daily devotion become a good habit. Or, you may have a small group of two to three people to encourage and be accountable to each other so that you won’t stop your daily devotion. I offer myself as your online discipler to walk with you daily to enrich your spiritual journey. So, shall we start this journey with Jesus Christ our Lord now!
