Praise the Lord that we have completed 400 days/24 hours Prayer Campaign! Without this prayer shield I think I might not be able to face the storm of Michelle's leukemia. You really need to believe in this kind of power of prayers! You really need to join us! This is how the Lord commanded me more than a year ago to teach as many people as I can to pray as never before and to experience the power of prayers! Have you experienced yet?

John Stott concludes the purpose of life - Christlikeness. We know that we need to lead a life of Christlikeness but there are so many weaknesses inside us that we can't drive out!
We can get some clue in this chapter. Whenever the Lord said YES or whenever the Lord was with them, then they could drive out. But most of them could not drive out those people: either they were scared of their high-tech weapon- the iron chariots or they had all kinds of reasons for not driving those people out.
I have seen so many Christians who do not want to throw the idols away. I have seen even more Christians do not think that they can drive out gambling, smoking, profanity, obscenity, anger, selfishness, self-centredness, greed...
Why? Because we think that we can, but in fact nobody can. Only if the Lord is with us, then we can. No other way! How sad it is that we are in the promised land but cannot drive out the bad habits and still live with those habits! Sooner or later the promised land might become a land of slavery! Oh Lord, help us!
Dear Lord Jesus,
Help me to drive out those things you want me to drive out. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.

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