"Why then were you not afraid to speak against my servant Moses?" The anger of the Lord burned against them, and he left them. Numbers 12: 8-9

Jesus wanted me to ask you this question today: Have you spoken against My servants? Why?

Human beings so easily speak against others. How painful it was for Moses that his own sister and brother spoke against him. It was impossible but it happened!

I remember it was so painful once when I had a similar situation some years ago. And Jesus comforted me, "Are you better than me?" I said, "Oh, of course not. Why have you said this, my Lord?" The Lord said to me: "Even I had a Judah who betrayed me. So, relax and move forward." I was set free by this wonderful words of encouragement!

So, if you are in similar situation, relax and understand that we have to face what Jesus faced, and we have to walk those path Jesus walked.

And if you are those who like to speak against God's servants, beware! Do not do this, for you can never face God's anger!

Dear Lord Jesus,

Help me to pray, support and show appreciation to your servants and never speak against them. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.

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!
