Message: http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Exodus 5&version=MSG


Moses returned to the Lord and said, "O Lord, why have you brought trouble upon this people? Is this why you sent me ? Ever since I went to Pharaoh to speak in your name, he has brought trouble upon this people, and you have not rescued your people at all." Exodus 5:22 - 23


See how easy it was for Moses to be so courageous and then later so discouraged. For most people it would have been so difficult to have the courage to go to the king and tell him what the king should do. They would be killed! It reminds me of Elijah who was so discouraged that he even wanted to kill himself. After all, we as Christian leaders have to go through those process so that we can be courageous leaders and not be discouraged.


Dear Lord Jesus,

Help me to do what you command me to do courageously and not to be discouraged whatsoever. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.

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!

    But Moses said, "O Lord, please send someone else to do it." Then the Lord's anger burned against Moses and he said, "What about your brother, Aaron the Levite? I know he can speak well... Exodus 4:13 - 14


    The Moses most people know is a super leader full of faith. Here in this chapter we see a young frightening young man say so many NOs to God! We always ask for more faith but what we don't know is faith needs relationship and relationship needs time. If we invest time to establish an intimate relationship with God daily then we will have more and more faith.


    Dear Lord Jesus,

    Help me to have more time with you daily that I can enter into a true intimate relationship with you. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.

    Michelle started the first day of her 3rd chemo and was in good state. She even have faith to go to our annual BBQ of Schola Cantorum Emmanuel. (We have a BBQ gathering every year after our annual concert O Music). It is another God's provision that she could have the opportunity to enjoy her first outside activity other than Iggy and Athan's graduation. It was the third time she went out after April 9. She was so thankful and joyful tonight! Her white blood cell was still high as in today's reading and was 4.0. It would drop fast starting tomorrow to 0.5 in a few days time.
