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 then prayerfully 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. 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!



Today's Reading: Job 37

Please read Job 37 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.)

Please click the links below to Job 37:
If you're so smart, give us a lesson in how to address God.
We're in the dark and can't figure it out.
Do you think I'm dumb enough to challenge God?
Wouldn't that just be asking for trouble? Job 36: 1-2(The Message)


What I received from Jesus today is: Smart guy, want to challenge God!

Elihu's speaking of the majesty and power of God seems so right. We know that nothing can compare to God's power. But, deep down in his heart he was just warning Job in an arrogant way, "Smart guy, want to challenge God! I don't buy what you think."

Put yourself into Job's position and think what you would feel about this kind of self-righteous arrogant attitude from a friend. How can you get over with that kind of discouragement? Can you take this kind of challenge?

Dear Lord Jesus,
Be with me always that I can face with all kinds of challenges. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.
