Please sign up for the 8th stage - 800 days **NEW link for the 8th 100 days 24 hours prayer campaign (Jul 22, 2011 to Oct 29, 2011)

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: Psalm 40

Please read Psalm 40 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.)

Chinese praise song -
祢是彌賽亞

Please click the links below to Psalm 40:


He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see and fear and put their trust in the Lord.

Do not withhold your mercy from me, O Lord; may your love and your truth always protect me.
For troubles without number surround me; my sins have overtaken me, and I cannot see. They are more than the hairs of my head, and my heart fails within me.
Psalm 40: 3, 11-12


What I received from Jesus today is: Can you sing praises when surrounded by troubles?

Remember what I got 33 days ago from Psalm 8: The best way to silence Satan and your enemies is PRAISE!


Once again you can see the same secret to overcome troubles is to welcome those new songs that the Lord wants to put in your mouth and sing praises to him.
When you are good, joyful and ready to do God's work - Sing praises to Jesus!
When you are down, saddened, depressed and not ready to do God's work or any work - Sing praises to Jesus!

Let's admit that we are poor and needy to ask the Lord to be with us, protect us and help us.
Let's sing praises to Him and always say, "The Lord be exalted!"


Dear Lord Jesus,
We praise you and magnify your Holy Name. Help us to be able to sing praises to you in all conditions that your Name be exalted. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
