Message: http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Exodus 6&version=MSG

I will take you as my own people, and I will be your God. Then you will know that I am the Lord your God, who brought you out from under the yoke of the Egyptians.

Exodus 6: 7

What Jesus told me today was wonderful!

1. I am the Lord your God, listen to me! (vv. 6, 7, 8)

2. Why do people not listen? Because of their discouragement and cruel bondage. (v. 9)

3. How to be encouraged and free

a. Into His relationship (v. 4-5 , covenant)

b. Into His promise (v. 2, by my name)

c. Into His mighty power (v. 1, my mighty hand)

Do you have any excuse like Moses? Well, the excuse I gave to the Lord when He called me to enter into seminary early in 1982 was the same as Moses, for I had spoken with faltering lips since I was very young. I said, "Lord, I can't, for how can I preach with faltering lips?" I still remember Jesus told me very clearly, "Son, you won't have faltering lips when you preach." So, thus said the Lord, I never have faltering lips when I preach but other than preaching, sometimes I still have faltering lips. To Listen and obey is never easy, but if we do not listen and obey, we will never experience God's mighty power!

Dear Lord Jesus,

Help me to enter into a daily intimate relationship with you so that I can be in your promise experiencing your mighty power. 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!
