Then the woman said to Elijah, "Now I know that you are a man of God and that the word of the Lord from your mouth is the truth."
1 Kings 16: 1-2



What Jesus told me today is this: "Do you want to pursue a life of Christlikeness so that other know you are a man of God? Then follow Elijah's path!" I asked, "Lord Jesus, show me his path." Jesus replied, "Show them now -

1. Listen and obey - 1 Kings 17: 1

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!

  1. There is no God like Jehovah!!!
    I heard from God that Bishop Silas is a prophet in our midst and to prepare the way of the LORD.
    Almost two years ago, I was very ill in the hospital and I was told I had a mass in my bowel. My son Ken phoned Silas and he and Michelle came to the hospital with Ken and prayed for me and anointed me with oil, I had another minister from St. David's who was passing by, saw me and prayed for me. And then another prayer warrior, I knew very well came and prayed for me. I was very ill but after four days I knew I had to get out of the emergency area and get home. The LORD gave me this song: These are the days of Elijah! I knew I was in a battle so I would go out into the back yard in my night clothes and march back and forth singing this song. The following month, I did not have a mass! but I was quite sick with a bowel disorder. It is a battle but last night on Ash Wednesday service in the brochure was Isaiah 30:15 "In quietness and confidence is your strength." Amen Yes, let us LISTEN and OBEY and become known as people of God proclaiming the Word of Truth! JESUS! and prepare the way of the LORD, and be His labourers in His vineyard. Thank you LORD for our daily devotion with Bishop Silas.
    P.S. My health is restored!
