**NEW link for the 11th 100 days 24 hours prayer campaign(from August 25 to December 03, 2012).

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 to pray for me, my family and my ministry, 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. This campaign is also to teach you that you need somebody to pray for you daily. I have been prayed for hourly the past 1,100 days and I have never experienced this kind of peace and protection before. It's just beyond words can express. If I did not listen and obey to Jesus call 1,100 days ago to start this prayer movement, I think I would be pulled into darkness and discouragement already! 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: Micah 5

Please read Micah 5 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.)

Bible Study

Verse 2 in this chapter is the passage from Matthew 2: 1, 3-6 recording the answer of the chief priests and teachers to King Herod about the place that the Messiah would be born. Micah prophesies that a godly ruler would come out of Bethlehem who would fulfill God's promises to his people.

God would abandon Israel, allowing the nation to go its way and endure the consequences of its actions.  It would have to survive without many of God's intended benefits until the promised One is born. 

Like Isaiah, Micah did not distinguish between the first and second comings of Jesus Christ to earth.  When Christ returns to destroy all evil, Israel will live securely and Christ will reign over all the world.  

Are you living securely each day because Jesus is your Lord of life?

My Spiritual Journal

What I got from Jesus today is: We might fall and live in insecurely if ...
What I received from Jesus today is a conditional sentence derives from verse 4 to 5:
He will stand and shepherd his flock in the strength of the Lord,
 in the majesty of the name of the Lord his God.
And they will live securely, for then his greatness will reach to the ends of the earth.
And he will be their peace.

There are so many people on earth living insecurely each day. More and more people are in depression, wanting to quit all the time, not enjoying life, destroying friendship and all kinds of relationships, killing other people and sometimes kill themselves. Why?

Very simple, turn verse 4 to 5 to the opposite:
You stand and take control of your own life to be the lord,
 in the weakness of your own name to be the lord.
And you will live insecurely, for then your limitation will surface and you will experience less and less peace!

This is what I got from Jesus Christ our Lord to you today.
What do you say? 

Dear Lord Jesus,
Help us to be willing to let you to stand up in the center of our lives to be the the good Shepherd, our King, our Saviour and our Lord so that we live securely each day and live in peace each day enjoying our intimate personal relationship with you and to be able to extend your mighty Kingdom.  In Jesus Name I pray. Amen.
