DAY 370 - Live A Godly Lifestyle!


Today's Reading: Leviticus 20


Please read Leviticus 20 and listen to what the Lord Jesus Christ would like to tell you before reading my Spiritual Journal below. If you would like to learn a simple and good way of Daily Devotion method please read my “Count Down 5” from this blog. You may click this link directly for the method:Subject Shifting Devotion.pdf. (You may begin with a song to praise the Lord and complete you devotion by singing another praise song.)

Message: http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Leviticus 20&version=MSG


"You must not live according to the customs of the nations I am going to drive out before you. Because they did all these things, I abhorred them... Your are to be holy to me because I, the Lord, am holy and I have set you apart from the nations to be my own." Leviticus 20: 23, 26



Jesus reminded me of an incident at a Starbuck yesterday. I went to Starbuck with Michelle and a friend of ours. He met a friend and joyfully chatted for a while; then he said, "Do you know ___ ?" His friend said, "Oh, yes of course. Your friend?" "Ya, from church." "What? He's a Christian? Oh, my God! You really need to pray for him!"


There are so many Christians living a lifestyle in which other people can't believe they are Christians! We really need to know that we as children have been set apart from those worldly customs and that people should know that we are Christians from our Godly lifestyle.



Dear Lord Jesus,

Help me to live a true Godly lifestyle. Truly in Christlikeness. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.


I escorted Michelle to see her doctor today as a two weeks regular check up. Everything is good and she officially starts her two years maintenance period today. She has to take quite some pills in these two years and may have some minor side effects!



My son, Ignatius, completed his three weeks mission in Ethiopia a few days ago.We are so joyful to welcome him home and know that he experienced God mightily in that three weeks. His one word of experience is "JOY"! Please click this link to read his wonderful sharing:http://21ethiopiandays.wordpress.com/

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!
