诗篇16：2 - 我的心哪，你曾对耶和华说：祢是我的主；我的好处不在祢以外。

我們常常觉得有所要求就是很贪心，基督徒的生命不可以过的太丰盛，要受一些苦才可以。我们這样說：“哦上帝，我想要一間比較大的屋子？不过哦。。。我不想太過麻煩祢，我应该知足，不可以太奢求。。。”
不，上帝要给你最好的。祂对你的人生有美好的旨意，祂要你不但是灵里面，甚至外在都是充足有余的，如此当人看到你，才看见神的孩子是富足不缺乏的，就把一切荣耀归给神。

你說：“這怎麼可能呢？我賺的錢根本不夠。”
也許你赚的就是不夠，但上帝祂綽綽有餘，祂不曾有過财务困境，而祂把赚取钱财的能力都给了你（申命记8：18）；当你尽忠职守时，凡事做到最好，在对的时机，机会必临到你。哈利路亚！
你也可能如此祷告：“主啊，請你帮助我做成这单生意，好让我這個月有佣金可領，然後我才有办法应付這個月的開銷，我只要求刚刚好就可满足了。”
不，上帝要為你成就超過你所求所想的（以弗所书3：20），而你不用担心你无法担当重任，因为靠着那加添你给力量的，你必定可以胜任祂托付的。祂要你作首不作尾，居上不居下（申命记28：13-14）。既然祂把独生爱子都为你舍了，还有什么是祂不愿意给你的呢？（罗马书8：32）

诗篇6：9 耶和华听了我的恳求；耶和华必收纳我的祷告。

上帝要告訴你，你已經停顿在一个地方太久了，是时候往前移动了，是時候扩张你的視线，不被局限，让一切属天的福份都倾倒在你生命里。拆毀那一直以在你心中建立的堅固營壘吧，不要再被过往辖制！你必須 改变你的思维，让你的心思意念藉着神的话来更新。此刻就下定決心成为那個立新標竿的人。阿们！

Isaiah 43:1- “But now, this is what the Lord says— he who created you, Jacob, he who formed you, Israel: “Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine.”
‭‭
When something belongs to you, it simply means that you have the full responsibility over it. Besides that, no one can be able to take what belongs to you from you, for it bears your name! Likewise, when we are in Christ, we belong to the Father in Heaven who loves us so much and deeply, we carry the name of His and guess what, He has the full responsibility in taking care of you! So, when you bear the name of God, the name of the Almighty, the name of the All Possible, nothing shall be able to stand against you when you know truly what is your identity!
My dear friends, God solely wants to tell you that "you're mine" today, how sweet! He sees you precious and one and only, and He loves you by giving you Jesus and all that He has! Therefore in all the days of your life, you can expect good things to happen, you can enjoy life and you shall find hope in all challenges you face!

哥林多前书1：30『【但你们得在基督耶稣里是本乎神，神又使祂成为我们的智慧、公义、圣洁、救赎』】。

上帝祂晓得我們的骄傲、憤怒、忌恨、贪婪软弱等，但祂却是看重我們在基督里的身份。离了基督，我们一无是处，没有价值。但是当我们在基督里，我们是义人，上帝藉着独生爱子的死，恢復我們與祂的关系（罗马书5： 9-10），那无罪的耶稣基督，代替我们成为罪人，钉在十字架上，救赎我们脱离罪的枷锁，使我们成为义人（哥林多后书5：21）。
在旧约圣经的何西阿书，讲论上帝对祂不忠的百姓信实且不变的爱。可能你会纳闷，耶和华为什么要何西阿去娶一位不贞的女人，而带给何西阿極大的痛苦呢？（何西阿书1：2-3）。后來，她真的就為別的男人抛弃了何西阿，上帝卻要何西阿再娶她回來。这就預表了「以色列人，虽然偏向別神。。。，耶和华还是是爱他们。」（何西阿书3：1）
如同今时今日的我们，本不配被饶恕，上帝却以祂独生爱子替换了我们，给了我们全新且公义的生命。这就是天父无与伦比的大爱，无论我们犯了滔天大罪，祂仍然以仁爱和慈悲包容我们，且爱我们不会改变。祂是那为从昨日、今日，一直到永远都爱我们的神（希伯来书13：8）。
慈爱的天父，我感谢祢，當我失足跌倒，祢依然对我不离不弃；而当我回转向祢，祢依然把我拥在怀里，以恩惠慈爱待我。阿门！

Psalm 39:7- ““But now, Lord, what do I look for? My hope is in you.”
‭‭
Yes, weeping may last for a night for God's grace is new again every morning. Yes, disappointment may seems to be overwhelming but God promised you reappointment. And yes, fear may looks great right now, but in Christ, fear is demolished by love. Therefore, waking up today no matter what is ahead of you, no matter what is going to be the great challenge that you thought, know that a Father who loves you is always by your side, sustaining and guiding you towards his better plan and purpose. He loves you too much to see you fall! My friend, Disappointment will not last when a Father in Heaven who loves you deeply knows exactly what you need, and He is a Father that will not fail you. Therefore, choose to Have a confident expectation of good, knowing that as you hope in Him, He will never ever disappoint you!

传道书3：1 凡事都有定期，天下万务都有定时。

很多时候，事情并不会按着我们期望的时间来完成或实现。即便我们很周全的策划，尽心尽力把一切都准备好，但事情还是会有意外的出错，这一切确实看似不从人愿，使到我们很沮丧。
但倘若你确信并坚定耶稣基督的信实，你在祂里面也是有盼望的，那至终都会有好的结局；箴言23：18说“因为至终必有善报，你的指望也不致断绝”。当你耐心等候，必欢呼收割，因为你的神祂说到就做到。神的话也鼓励你不可丢弃勇敢的心，因存这样的心必得大赏赐。
你当耐心等候，给它时间酝酿发酵，就如同一瓶好酒的出产，都必须经过时间的淬炼，不是吗？

耶利米哀歌3：25凡等候耶和华，心里寻求祂的，耶和华必施恩给祂。

Psalms 34:2- “I will boast only in the LORD; let all who are helpless take heart.”
‭‭
David wrote this psalms when he was facing a great challenge, the enemies are encamping around and yet he chose to praise The Lord! So, imagine when you're surrounding by enemies and challenges, many of times we will choose to complain and murmur on the issues around, we will speak of what we see instead of what God has promised us. King David said he will boast only in The Lord, therefore, no matter what is before your eyes right now, choose to boast only in The Lord! Don't boast about how great is your issues, but boast about how great is Jesus! Choose to Eye on Jesus, the One who loves and accepts you unconditionally; boast not your issues of life but Him alone, and you shall see impossibles become possibles, water into wine, five loaves and two fish become twelve baskets full of leftover!

Psalms 68:19 Praise be to the Lord, to God our Savior, who daily bears our burdens.

Hallelujah! Dear friend, do you know that you can actually live your life without worry and fear?
Though there are a lots of troubles and problems in this world while we are living our daily life, but thanks be to God, for the Lord our God has daily bears our burdens and even loads us with benefits.
Jesus has led us into triumphal and made us a victor in life. Therefore, no matter what kind of situation you may be in, do remember that you are more than conquerors for Jesus has won the victory!
When you are sick, trust in the Lord who daily bears your burdens and heals your sick;
When you are weak, trust in the Lord who daily bears your burdens and makes you strong;
When you are lacking, trust in the Lord who daily bears your burdens and provides you according to His glorious riches;
When you are worry, trust in the Lord who daily bears your burdens and cast all your anxieties to Him who cares for you!

So, praise God when you are sick;
Praise God when you are weak;
Praise God when you are lacking;
Praise God when you are worry, for in Him and through Him, you can now reign in life and enjoy the life He has given to you to the fullest!
Praise the Lord!

彼得前书2：25 -你们从前好像迷路的羊，如今却归到你们灵魂的牧人监督了。

今天，是什么正在牧养你的生命呢？是自己的作为，或是善行，还是我们的大祭司耶稣来牧养你的生命呢？或许如今的正处在水深火热之中，四处碰壁，但无论是什么，都要谨记如今你在耶稣基督里的身份，你是神的孩子，有权柄有能力践踏恶者的一切作为。

当耶稣是你的牧者，想想，一个牧者的责任是什么呢？是任由羊群被攻击呢？还是保护羊群的呢？耶稣是一个好牧者，在你生命里，祂保护你，监督你，引领你走对的路，你不再迷路了。可能你会说，有那么多祂需要照顾看护的人，怎么可能会在意你呢？但，祂就是你的牧者。祂就是有这样的能力。所以不要再怀疑，在祂的眼里，你最珍贵，祂把你铭刻在祂掌心上（赛49：16）。

当有祂的同在，你是不缺乏的。不要再听信任何的谎言，在那一个方面你都不缺乏；无论经济上，健康上，婚姻关系里，你都不缺乏；耶稣祂为你挡风遮雨！所以记住了，就算有时你觉得你是孤单一个人，祂也依然守护着你，更是时刻供应你。你和祂的关系是如此的亲密；所以尽情的享受祂的牧养吧，祂是你灵魂的牧人。哈利路亚！

2 Corinthians 6:18- “And, “I will be a Father to you, and you will be my sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.””
‭‭
In the Old Testament, you can never see God portrays Himself as a Father. But when Jesus came to the world, He came to introduce God in a totally new identity, which is a Father. Therefore for Jews and people of the law, this is a totally new teaching that they never heard it before! You know what?
A father's responsibility is to ensure security and protection over the children, and provide whatever that pertains to life to them. God is our wonderful father, that loves to give you good things! He cares all that concerns you, and whatever that matters to you matters to Him! When You're His, expect that you will be wonderfully supplied! When such a good Father is with you, you can have boldness and assurance knowing that your year will definitely be wonderful and good!
