Galatians 5:25 Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit.
加拉太书 5:25 我们若是靠圣灵得生，就当靠圣灵行事。

Dear friend, do you know that sinful nature desires what is contrary to the Spirit, and the Spirit what is contrary to the sinful nature. They are conflict with each other, so that you do not do what you want? Those who live according to the sinful nature have their minds set on what that nature desires, but those who live in accordance with the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires. It is important for us to know who shall we our mind follow and lean on today because the mind of sinful man is death but the mind controlled by the Spirit is life and peace. So friend, regardless what your mind is thinking a few second ago, let it be the past. From now on, let us set our mind on things that is above-JESUS, and keep in step with the Spirit. Stop living our lives in negativity ground, but keep in step with the Spirit and think positively no matter what are we encountering knowing that JESUS has full control in the situation we are in. Stop listening to what our emotions say when facing problems, but instead, keep in step with the Spirit by listening to what the words of God say. Stop reacting to our surrounding by our feelings but keep in step with the Spirit and response with the peace, love and joy God has placed in our heart. In everything we do, do it with the tremendous power of God that make things happen. Tap into the supernatural by eyeing on Jesus and focus on what He can do, trust in Him and know that nothing is to hard for Him. When we keep in step with the Spirit, surely we will see things change in our favor, bad turn to be good and impossible becomes possible!

亲爱的朋友，你可否知道情欲和圣灵相争，圣灵和情欲相争，这两个是彼此相敌，使你们不能做所愿意做的？随从肉体的人体贴肉体的事，随从圣灵的人体贴圣灵的事。我们的心和思想跟随依靠谁是非常重要的，因为体贴肉体的是死，体贴圣灵的乃是生命平安。所以朋友，不管你的思想前一刻想的是什么，就让它成为过去吧！从这一刻开始，思念天上的事 - 耶稣，靠着圣灵来行事。不要让我们的生命待在消极中，而是靠着圣灵积极地面对一切，因为知道耶稣永远掌权。在面对困难时，不要听我们的情绪怎么说，而是靠圣灵听听神的话怎么说。不要凭我们的感觉来回应我们的周遭，而是靠圣灵以神所给我们的平安，爱和喜乐来回应。在我们所行的事上，都以神那使事情发生浩大的能力来行；以仰望耶稣并专注于祂所能做的进入那超自然，相信祂且知道在祂没有难成的事。当我们靠圣灵行事，我们肯定看见事情因我们而改变，不好的变成好，不可能的变成可能！

Psalm 107:20 He sent out his word and healed them; he rescued them from the grave.
诗篇 107:20 祂发命医治他们，救他们脱离死亡。

Everything has it's source, a rice cooker cannot function without electricity, a plant will not grow without good source of nutrients and water, likewise if we cannot live without oxygen, as a child of God, we need the Word of God, to sustain us and provide us. His word is life and spirit, it is our food and source of life, we are unable to sustain without food for our body, likewise our inner man requires food, which is the word of sustain! The Word of God heals, be it physically or emotionally, so start to eye and meditate on His Word, and you shall see your health being restored and your joy is the fullest! For God is faithful in keeping what He has promised! Look upon His Word, your source, and you shall never be in want!

天下万物都有根源，如同电饭煲没有电源就无法操作，植物在生长过程中，如果没有养分和水，就无法生长。同样的，如果我们没有氧气，也就无法生存，身为神的孩子，我们需要神的话来托住我们的人生，并提供我们生命所需要的一切。祂的话是生命是灵，是我们属灵的食物和生命的根源，如果我们的身体没有食物，就无法生存；同样的，我们的灵人也需要属灵的食物，就是把守住我们生命的话语！上帝的话语有医治的能力，无论是对于我们身体上还是情绪上，所以现在开始就定睛和默想祂的话，你就会看到你的健康正在恢复，你的喜乐是满足的！因为神是信实的，定睛祂在的话，就是你生命的源头，你必不至缺乏！

1 Corinthians 7:23 You were bought at a price; do not become slaves of human beings.
哥林多前书 7：23 你们是重价买来的，不要作人的奴仆。

Why would one always seek of approval of men? When he doesn't know about his value and when he has no confident that he is unique! You see, many are seeking the approval of men, and they are happy when people accepts and approves them, but if they are not, they will easily get disappointed and choose to give up. God has redeemed us, and redeemed means we are purchased and now belong to Him alone. Therefore, He doesn't want us to be slaves of men, that we are always looking upon people's approval and live life in fear and insecurity. Instead, He wants us to know that we were bought at a price, and that price costs Jesus his life! He doesn't want us to be slaves of men, but He wants us to know that we are no longer slaves, but His children! How wonderful! Therefore, know that your value has changed, your value is no longer determine by the world's requirements and qualifications, but your value is now determine by God your Father! As Jesus is, so are you in this world! Hence, know that you're special, unique, precious, one and only! You're qualified and approved by God, you're accepted in Christ, you're no longer a slave of men but a child of God! So, change your mind today and know that you're precious and honored in God's sight, when He has qualified you, no one can disqualified you!

为什么人总会要寻求他人的认同呢？当一个人不晓得他本身的价值，他就无法相信自己是独一无二的！很多时候人都在寻求人的认同，当被人认同时，心里就感觉良好；当不被人认同时，就感到灰心失望，甚至放弃了。上帝救赎了我们，而救赎的意思就是祂重价把我们买回来，现在我们是属祂的。所以，祂不要我们成为人的奴仆，祂不要我们总是要得到人的认同而活的没有安全感。然而，祂要我们知道我们是重价赎回来的，那赎价就是耶稣的生命！祂不要我们成为人的奴仆，因为我们已经不是奴仆，而是祂的孩子！这多么的棒！所以，知道你生命的价值已经不再一样，你生存的价值不再按着世界的要求和标准，但现在你的价值是在天父的手里！因着耶稣如何，你在这世上也如何！因此，晓得你是特殊的，是分别为圣，是珍贵的，且独一无二的！你是有资格，被上帝认同的。在基督里你是被接受的，你不再是奴隶，却是上帝的孩子！因此，今天就改变你的想法，晓得在上帝眼中你是宝贝，当祂说你配得，没有人可以否定你！

2 Corinthians 3:16 But whenever anyone turns to the Lord, the veil is taken away.
哥林多后书 3：16 但他们的心几时归向主，帕子就几时除去了。

What you enlarge on everyday determines your life. If you choose to enlarge problems and decided to stay in self-pity, you are determining your life to be in sorrow and complaints. However, if you will choose to enlarge Jesus everyday, you are determining your life to be a victorious life. Therefore, turn your eyes upon Jesus today instead of gazing upon and maximizing that issues that you are encountering now in your life. As you look upon Jesus, the moment when you see His greatness and goodness, it will definitely made all things around you faded into comparison. Just like Peter, the moment when you look at Jesus, you are able to walk above the storms, but if you will choose to look left and right towards the storms, you will sink! Therefore, the moment when you gaze and focus upon Jesus, whenever you turn to Jesus, all the veil of uncertainty, the veil of fear, the veil of self-pity, the veil of doubts shall be taken away! For there is no one like Him, all glorious and loves you until eternity!

在你的每一天，你放大什么，就决定了你怎样活。如果你选择放大问题，并开始自怜，你的人生就注定是活在悲惨和苦毒里。但，如果你每天选择把耶稣放大，你的生命肯定是得胜的。所以，当把你的眼目转向耶稣，不再是放大你生命中的问题。当你看向耶稣，看到祂的伟大与美好，你身边的一切问题都会渐渐消逝。如同彼得那样，当你看向耶稣，你就可以走在水面上，但是如果你选择看向风浪，你就下沉了！因此，你当转向耶稣，定睛仰望并注目祂时，那些不肯定的帕子，害怕的帕子，自怜的帕子，怀疑的帕子，都要被除去了！因为没有人能像祂如此充满荣耀，且爱你直到永永远远！

Acts 16:25 About midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God...
使徒行传 16：25 约在半夜，保罗和西拉，祷告唱诗赞美神。。。

Have you ever been in the time of the pit? Probably you are at the darkest hour of your life now, you do not know what you should do and you have come to a point that no matter what you try, instead of getting better, it just grew worse. Do you know that God is with you and he wants to deliver you? When Paul and Silas was being caught and put into prison, they did not complain but instead at their darkest hour, when they were in pain and wound, they choose to sing hymns and praises to God. The bible recorded that even the prisoners in the dungeon can hear them! Therefore, they must be praying and singing in a loud voice! How possible to react like that when you're already locked in a prison, and with pain? Naturally it is not how we will response, but Paul and Silas did not look at the natural, but the supernatural. Likewise, the devil will try all sorts of way to put pressure on you, but do know that rejoicing is a choice that you can make! Just like Paul and Silas, they can choose to cry over and complain, but they did not. As you rejoice in The Lord and sing to Him because he is good, it dissipates your fear and pressure; yet it gives strength when you're in your darkest hour! As you rejoice in The Lord, you shall see the chains of fear, bondage, sickness shall be broken, not only that, when Paul and Silas did that, even the foundation was shaken! Therefore you too can shake the world, your response and your decision determine what you believe, Paul and Silas believe in God, how about you? :)

你是否曾经处在生命的低谷？也许你正处生命中最黑暗的一刻，你不知道该怎么办，你已经来到一个地步，无论你做什么，都于事无补，事情不是越来越好，却是变得更糟糕。但你晓得吗？神祂与你同在，祂要拯救你！当保罗西拉被捉进监狱时，他们没有抱怨，在最艰难，处在痛苦和伤害中，他们选择唱歌赞美神。圣经记载，甚至在牢里的囚犯都能听到他们的声音！所以，他们必定是大声的祈祷和歌唱！当你被关进监牢，又受尽了煎熬，我们本能的反应怎么可能会这样呢？当然不会！但保罗和西拉选择不看自然界，他们看超自然界的。同样，魔鬼会尝试用各种诡计对你施压，但你要知道，你可以选择喜乐！就像保罗和西拉，他们其实可以选择以哭泣和抱怨来回应，但他们没有。如同当你靠着主喜乐，因着祂的美好来向祂歌唱时，你的恐惧和压力就渐渐没有了；当你处在最黑暗的时候，祂加给你力量！当你在主里喜乐，你就会看到惧怕的锁链，捆绑的锁链，疾病的锁链等，都要被切断！不仅如此，当保罗和西拉这样做时，甚至监牢的地基都被摇动了！所以，你也可以震动这世界；你的回应和你的决定了你的相信；保罗和西拉相信神，那么你呢？ :)

1 Thessalonians 5:18 Give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus.
贴撒罗尼迦前书 5:18 凡事谢恩；因为这是神在基督耶稣里向你们所定的旨意。

Regardless what has happened yesterday, or how great is the mountain before you, remember that Jesus Christ is always the same yesterday, today and forever. His love for you is constant, and so does His faithfulness. Therefore, no matter what happened, as a child of God, there is one definite reason that you can give thanks, that is because of Jesus. Jesus is the reason of giving thanks, for all that He has done, and for all that He has sacrificed for you. As you look around the world, you may find thousands of reason to complain and give up, but always remember the very reason, the one who gives you life. Then, you are able to give thanks in all circumstances, not because of thanking that circumstance, but thanking Jesus! Knowing that He is able to bring you through and turns your life around. If you will ask of the will of God, remember, all that your father loves to hear is you saying "thank you!" to Him. As one who receives freely can freely gives gratitude!

无论昨天发生什么事，或是眼前的大山有多大，记得耶稣基督祂是昨日、今日，一直到永远，都是一样的。祂对你的爱亘古不变，祂的信实亦然。因此，无论发生什么事，身为神的孩子，因着耶稣基督，你可以献上感恩。耶稣是你唯一可以献上感恩的理由，因着祂所成就的，并祂为你献上的一切。当你环顾四周，你有成千上万个可以抱怨和放弃的理由，但永远记得只因着一人你可以来感恩，就是给你生命的主耶稣。所以，无论在什么情况下，你都可以献上感恩，不是因着环境，而是单单来感谢耶稣！晓得祂能带领你走过生命低谷并改变你的生命。如果你问神祂的心意是什么，记得，你父亲喜悦听到的你跟祂说“谢谢”。我们是白白的得来，所以凡事谢恩！

2 Corinthians 12:9 But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
哥林多后书 12:9 祂对我说，我的恩典够你用。因为我的能力，是在人的软弱上显得完全。所以，我更喜欢夸自己的软弱，好叫基督的能力覆庇我。

Hi friend, are you afraid of challenges? Are you worrying about your future? No matter what is the bondage that hold you back, always bear in mind that the grace of God is sufficient for you! When you are down, His grace is sufficient, apply the grace of God that hold you up; When you are angry, His grace is sufficient, apply the grace of God that calm you down; When you are worry, His grace is sufficient, apply the grace of God that give you peace; When you are in lack, His grace is sufficient, apply the grace of God that provide to you abundantly; When you are sick, His grace is sufficient, apply the grace of God that make you healthy; When problems come, His grace is sufficient, apply the grace of God that help you to overcome problems! In Him, you can have the unmerited and unearned favor. When there is grace, there is supplies. Therefore, when you start to use and apply the grace of God, that is when you encounter blessings flow. The grace of God enable you to reign in life. So, be thankful for the grace of God!

嗨朋友，你会害怕面对挑战吗？你是否在担心你的未来？不管有什么重担拖累着你，永远记得神的恩典够你用！当你处在低谷的时候，祂的恩典够你用，是那将你兴起的恩典；当你生气时，祂的恩典够你用，是那使你平静的恩典；当你担心时，祂的恩典够你用，是那给你平安的恩典；当你缺乏时，祂的恩典够你用，是那供应你丰盛的恩典；当你生病时，祂的恩典够你用，是那给你健康的恩典；当问题来时，祂的恩典够你用，是那帮助你战胜问题的恩典！在主里面，你拥有那原不配得且不能赚取的恩惠。哪里有恩典，那里就有供应。因此，你什么时候开始用神的恩典，你就什么时候经历福分的流露。神的恩典使你能够在生命中掌权。所以，为着神的恩典感恩吧！

Psalm 5:12 Surely, Lord, you bless the righteous, you surround them with your favour as with a shield.
诗篇 5:12 因为祢必赐福与义人，耶和华啊，你必用恩惠如同盾牌四面护卫他。

Do you know that the moment when you accepted Jesus, you are called as the righteous? Righteousness is not what you can earn with your bare hands or with your effort, for no one can achieve salvation by his own, but only through one man Jesus Christ. Righteousness is a gift from God (Romans 5:17), God has given you this right standing in front of Him when you accept Jesus, therefore you are reconciled and you can come to Him boldly, just like a Father and a son. Today, know that no matter where you are, God has blessed you. He has supplied, He has healed, He has given, He has blessed you with all that you need according to His richest in glory! All you need to do is to believe that instead of pleading and getting from God, you already have it in you! He has surrounded you with His favour, just like a shield. Which means that no matter where you are, to the front, to the back, to the left or to the right, you have no choice but being hit by the blessings of God! Favour means you get it in your most undeserving and unmerited state, therefore start your day right knowing that you are blessed and you have the favour of God surrounded you, therefore fear no more but move on!

你知道吗？当你接受主耶稣的那一刻起，你就被称为义人了。这公义不是你可以用你的双手或是你自己的劳力可以赚取的，因为没有人可以靠着自己得着这救赎，只能藉着一人，就是耶稣基督。公义是从神而来的礼物（罗马书5:17）。当你接受了耶稣，上帝就给你这权柄在祂面前有对的位置。所以你可以如同孩子与父亲一样，坦然无惧的来到祂的施恩宝座前。今天，当晓得无论你身在何处，上帝已经祝福你。祂供应了你，祂医治了你，祂给了你一切，祂按照祂荣耀的丰富，赐福了你一切你所需要的！所以你只管相信，而不是乞求，祂已经给你了，你已经拥有了！祂以恩惠如同盾牌围绕着你。这意表着，无论你在那里，无论是向前，或向后，向左或向右，你别无选择，只能被上帝的祝福恩宠着！恩典是当你在你最不配得和最糟糕时，你却得着了。因此，开始全新的一天，晓得你是蒙福的，你有上帝的恩惠围绕着你，所以不要再害怕了，继续的前进！
