Daily Devotion 每日灵修

I look at my palm and see,
who am I without thee;
and yet you've chosen the weak,
to make me arise and shine..

Your love touched my heart always,
Abba Abba I call your name,
Extending your mighty arms,
to sustain me whenever I fall..

Your favor is surrounding me,
Your grace abounding on me,
all because of the One who came,
and bear my sins and shames.

Darkness has to flee,
Sickness has to flee,
Bondage are set free,
and the blind can see..
The cross is the prove from thee,
your loving-kindness is what I see.

耶 1:5 - “我未将你造在腹中，我已晓得你；你未出母胎，我已分别你为圣；我已派你作列国的先知。”

我们每一个人，都是特别的，是不一样的。在我们还未被造前，神就已知道我们了，在我们还没出世前，祂已分别我们为圣。意思就是，神早就已经拣选了我们，而不是我们拣选了祂。很多时候，我们人很喜欢去模仿别人，看到这个人好就想要模仿；或是看到那个人的造型很酷就想要变成那样。其实，神造我们每一个人都有自己的特色，都有自己吸引人的地方。在这个世界上，没有一个人是和自己一模一样的，就算是双胞胎也有不一样的地方。比如我们的指纹，在这世上是没有人会有同样的指纹的。如同今天，神造我们是独特的，没有人可以代替你，也没有人能变成你。
很多时候，人会觉得自己总比不上人而觉得自卑，觉得自己是不起眼的。他们总觉得像他们这样的人是没有人会注意，没有人会爱他们的。但是，我们的神却是爱我们到底的神，是无论如何都不会把我们舍下的。就算今天的你再怎么默默无闻，就算今天的你有多么的狼狈，但是我们的神依然把你看为至宝，把你当成祂眼里的瞳人，只因为祂是造你的父。神已把我们分别为圣，我们就算活在这世上，也与世人不同，因为那住在我们里面的是比这世上的更大。如今，祂如何，我们在这世上也如何，在我们里面是有那浩大的能力。所以朋友们，不要看轻自己了，不要觉得自己什么都不如人，因为我们是上帝的宝贝，是带着神的恩膏，是被圣灵所充满的。因此，只管勇敢的向前，为要得着那从上头而来的赏赐。阿门！

Psalm 9:9 - The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble.

Where are you going to look for refuge in times of troubles or lacking? Many of us tend to run away from God and turn to the problems instead. Today, you are to know that when problems come, when poverty drops by, you are to run to your Father in Heaven directly!

He is refuge for the oppressed. In the original meaning, refuge here means an inaccessible place. It means Jesus is an inaccessible place for all your problems! Then, you are to be assured that poverty has no access to Jesus, sicknesses have no access to Jesus, broken relationship has no access to Jesus, and even condemnation has no access to Jesus! Therefore, they have no access to you too! Probably you had been crushed by all the oppositions, financial problems, guilt; however, this is a day that you can run to Jesus. You don't have to wait until you settle everything by your own or when you are whole, you can run to Him anytime! In Him, everything that is bad is all inaccessible, you are well protected in His embrace!

In times of trouble, He is your stronghold! It means that He is forever in front of you to shield you! When condemnation comes, Jesus has it first! When accusation comes, Jesus has it for you! When curses come, they hit Jesus first! This is what He has done for you on the cross! A stronghold that you can always rely on! So run to Him today!

创 1:27
神就按着自己的形象造人，乃是照着他的形象造男造女。

亲爱的朋友，你知道你是照着神的形象所造的吗？有很多时候我们都忘了自己的身份，我们很常忘记我们究竟是谁，我们拥有什么和能做什么。
当问题来到，我们常常很自然地以负面去回应那问题还有我们甚至忘了自己比问题更大因为我们是照着神的形象造的。
我们是活在这世上但我们却不是属于这世界的。我们是属神的。 我们是他的创造更是他所爱的。你可知道我们在他眼中有多珍贵吗？他爱我们到一个地步牺牲他所爱的独生子耶稣基督，给了我们为我们死在十字架上为了救赎我们脱离一切。
因着他，我们是得胜有余且能享受他一切所有的。

在这复杂的世界，我们多数都会被问题和属世界的一切蒙蔽了心眼。
很多时候我们忘了我们是属于那一位一直在给、祝福、原谅的神的。在这世界上，我们习惯性的拿，拿，拿，拿到我们忘记了。 我们一直都在匆匆忙忙凭自己的努力不断争取能够过得更好的生活，而结果忘了自己是谁，拥有什么，能做什么。
所以，现在是时候改变了，朋友。现在是时候让我们醒悟了。

让我们回到那最起初的。记得我们乃是按照神的形象造的。 所以，我们拥有那浩大的能力来战胜一切的环境，我们拥有权柄来管理一切托付我们的事情，靠着那加给我们力量的我们凡事都能做！
基督如何，我们在这世上也如何。没有什么能够伤害你，更没有什么能拦阻你前进成就神的工作。
所以，开始以你的真实身份，你所拥有的，你能做成的，来走你的生命吧。
赞美主！

弗 1：23 - 教会是祂的身体，是那充满万有者所充满的。

一个完整的身体，是任何部分都不可缺的。而最重要的就是带领者，我们的头。若没有了头，全身就活不了了。在基督里，我们是主的肢体，而基督是我们的头。我们需要有一个头来引领我们，而这个头就是耶稣基督。在我们人生的道路上，我们需要被引领，而神的话就是我们脚前的灯，是我们路上的光。（诗 119:105）我们身为肢体的一部分，是要顺服我们的头，就是耶稣基督。我们每个肢体，都要连于我们的元首耶稣基督，全身都靠祂联络得合式，百节各按各职，照着各体的功用彼此相助，便叫身体渐渐增长，在爱中建立自己。（弗 4:15-16）我们每个人在基督里都扮演着重要的角色，都是被需要的，但更不可少的是我们的元首。当我们甘心顺从，听从神的话，跟随祂的指引，作好主的肢体，行祂要我们所行的，我们就必吃那地上的美物。（赛 1：19）

朋友们，我们与基督是同一体的，是不能分离的。当我们跟基督合而为一的时候，如今祂所有的都是我们的。你知道吗，基督不容许病痛在我们身上，祂不允许贫穷在我们身上，祂不允许我们有任何的委屈或苦难，因为当一个肢体受苦，全身都会跟着受苦；当一个肢体得荣耀，全身都跟着得荣耀。所以今天基督如何，我们在这世上也如何。（约一 4:17）因为我们是同一体的，祂要我们是灵魂体都兴盛的。（约三：2）

所以，让我们扮演好肢体的角色，而我们的角色就是相信神的话，顺从神的指引，行在主的旨意里。当我们这样行的时候，我们的生命必定是作首不做尾，居上但不居下的。阿门！

Proverbs 8:35 - For whoever finds me finds life and receives favor from the Lord.

Many are searching and finding in this world, and everyone has a different goal to achieve in life. Some are looking for prosperity, some are looking for health, some are looking for love, and some are looking for freedom. You might be one of them searching and looking all these years, and you end up wounded and found that everything just turn you down. That's why we are unable to rely on human being or even our surroundings, because whatever that we can see are all temporary and what we cannot see are eternal. That's why you just have to rely on Jesus Christ and him alone because only He is eternal and forever.

Therefore, today if you are discouraged by all the circumstances around you, remember that there is one direction that you can always run to! That is to the embrace of your father in heaven. it says here in Proverbs that whoever finds me finds life. So, today when you find Jesus, you will find life! Life in terms on not only breathe, but also health, sound mind, peace, goodness, prosperity and good relationships with family! This is exactly the life that God wants to bless you with!

Not only that, you will receive favor from the Lord! How wonderful when you are searching for Him and beholding Jesus, you will see life and favor manifest in your life! It means wherever you are, you find favor in people's eyes. You have no idea why people will just help you and show favor on you! It is all because of God's glory are manifesting on you when you choose to find Jesus and behold His beauty all the time!

So find him today in the Words of God, and you will find life and receive favor super abundantly!

Psalm 42:8 - The Lord shows his true love every day. At night I have a song, and I pray to my living God.

The world might be full of hypocrisy and lies as still it lies under the power of the darkness (1 John 5:19), however we do not need to lose hope as regardless what the world may seems to be, regardless how people treated you, regardless how much disappointment you received, always remember that there is a Father who loves you so much! In Romans 3:3-4 says "it is true that some Jews were not faithful to God. But will that stop God from doing what he promised? No! God will continue to be true even when every person is false." Therefore, if everything around ceases, remember God will continue to be true! Nothing can stop God from doing what He has promised you! When He has promised you freedom, love, protection, supply, goodness, favor, it is unstoppable!

Hence, wake up every day knowing that God eager to show you His true love. Never a day He will miss in loving you. He loves you constantly, regardless how worst or how many times you may fail. And guess what? This love empowers you! This love enables you to move on and never give up, this love enables you to rejoice in every circumstances! Therefore, remember today that you are loved, and let's be discern on how He shows you His true love everyday! Isn't it exciting?

Psalm 93:4 – Mightier than the thunder of the great waters, mightier than the breakers of the sea – the Lord on high is mighty.

What are the things that troubling you right now? Probably it is because of your medical report, or your financial report; no matter what you are to know that there is nothing too hard that God cannot settle it for you! Whatever that seems to be difficult, God can turn it into possible!

Your God is mightier than the thunder of the great waters; He is the creator of the universe. He holds everything together and He is the first. Likewise today, He is mightier than all your circumstances, poverty, sicknesses, fear, anxiety and so much more! Just because His name is higher than every name and His ways are always higher than our own ways! Trusting in Him is never a decision that you will feel regret in the end. Instead, you shall see many turning points started to happen in your life just because you have a mighty Father!

When God is with you, who can stand against you? When God is alongside leading you throughout the journey of your life, you can be full assured that as He is so are you in this world! You can stand above the storm but not beneath! He is mighty, so you can rely on Him in all things and for the rest of your life!

2 Corinthians 6:18 – I will be a Father to you, and you shall be my sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.

There are a lot of people today think that God is really someone that is far away, majority of the Christians are living in religion consciousness rather than God consciousness. Many will think that God is a dictator that demands a lot and wants us to serve Him like a slave. But a thousand times no! If you are to know who is your God, you are to go back to the bible and search and understand your Father. He is definitely a loving Father that wants to have relationship with you rather than having a religion with you. Therefore He said, I will be a Father to you.

Many in this world carries a wrong concept about a father, they see the Father in heaven from the lens of this world. But know that God your Father is not the same as you know of from your earthly father, He wants to be a Father to you. To love you, protect you, provide you, understand you is all that He wants to do in your life. He wants you to live your life knowing that there is always a Father for you. You are never alone, but you are a child of God Most High. He is your Dad.

Therefore, today, come to Him boldly and you can call Him Abba Father! Enjoy in His embrace and enjoy in this fatherly love! :)
