John 1:16 (MSG) - We all live off his generous bounty, gift after gift after gift.

Do you know that when you are in Christ, you are totally a new creation? Created in the same image like God, and sharing the same attributes like Him! Christ is the reason for this identity change, the old has already gone and the new has come in your life! Therefore, you are to know that you have already received all things pertain to life, all that you need in life has been supplied, furthermore, the Word of God says that we all live off His generous bounty!! Imagine that we were once lost, but now we are found in Christ, we used to be a sinner but now we are the righteousness of God in Christ, we used to be in the darkness but now we have been transferred into the kingdom of the Son, our lives have encountered tremendous change! And now, we live off His generous bounty, not just in the bountiness of wealth, but God has promised us in the bountiness of health, of hope, of joy, of peace, and future! He is a generous Father that loves to lavish you with gift after gift after gift! Look up to Him today, as you put your delight in the Lord, all that you need shall be well supplied of, therefore, all you need to do now, is to enjoy Jesus and you shall see bountiness follow after you!

诗篇39：7主啊，如今我等什么呢？我的指望在乎祢！

神的话是非常奇妙的，与人的话大不相同。祂的话可以带着能力，并且真实地改变一个人的生命。当你愿意每一天都花时间默想与揣摩神的话，这就像是享用了一顿丰富的筵席，祂的话不只能饱足心灵，也同时喂养生命。你将会发现，你的生命将不再一样。

领受神的话语，不是例公行事，而是与祂交通，建立亲密的关系，应当是我们最渴慕的，期待与领受祂每天要对我们说什么。我们要成为上帝的重要粉丝，看祂写的事，听祂的声音，每天追随祂的一切。这样，我们的每一天必被更新，眼光也会改变，即便看起来生活没有太大的改变，但是在灵界，却是彻底的转变，你会发现，你的生命从来没有如此的美好。

当你守住着神的话，你有指望，人生就不是孤军作战。无论你望那里去，祂都与你同在，祂必保佑你，总不离弃你，直到成全了向你所应许的。你还在等待什么呢？你的指望在乎谁呢？除了耶稣，别无他人！啊们！

2 Timothy 2:8- “Remember Jesus Christ, raised from the dead, descended from David. This is my gospel,”
‭‭
My friends, God has given us a life of resurrection, that we are no longer stay in defeat, but rather we are now standing in the ground of eternal victory! All that we need to do is to believe in the gospel, and know exactly where is our position now in Christ! The gospel means good news, And the good news that brought by Jesus is He has been raised from the dead! He has conquered death! So, when death could not hold Him back; guess what, sickness, lack, curses, fear cannot hold you back either! For as He is, so are you in this world! Therefore, when God is with you, who can be against you? When you have Jesus which has been raised from the dead, you can be sure that your life will never be the same, you will not stay in the same ground but you will rise up higher and soaring like an eagle!

诗篇42：5 - 我的心哪，你为何忧闷？为何在我里面烦操？应当仰望神，因祂笑脸帮助我，我还要称赞祂。

有时候，就是会有莫名的烦躁涌上心头，一丁点儿小事就会让我们抓狂。当你烦躁忧闷时，更要抬起头，甩开心头的乌云，仰望神，祂是以笑脸帮助你的神。你要知道，你的大事小事祂都顾念；所以，你发了脾气，也只是暂时泄恨罢了，无法把问题彻底解决：你再心否气躁，事情也不会好转。记住，有了耶稣，没有什么是过不去的，祂是天天都背负你重担的主（诗篇68：19），就算天地就都改变了，祂永不改变，祂的年数没有穷尽（希伯来书1：12）。

害怕那不可预知的明天吗？别害怕，耶稣已经在那里，祂为你策划明天，祂是不打盹的神（诗篇121：4）；担心那不堪回首的过去吗？别担心，在基督里你已经是新造的人，旧事已过，都变成新的了（哥林多后书5:17）；所以你应当仰望神，因为祂是要来帮助你，而你要来赞美称颂祂，高举祂的名！

当你敬畏神，把眼目定睛于耶稣，就会有从上头而来的智慧，知道该如何解决问题；当你走在真理里，肯定看见有出路！阿们！

Psalm 84:11 - For the Lord God is a sun and shield, the Lord bestows favor and honor; no good thing does he withhold from those whose walk is blameless.

When God He says He loves you, He loves you with actions instead of words. From the beginning, you are already in His heart, and all that He has planned and done, are all for your benefits, so that you can enjoy hope and a good future! The greatest gift that He has given you is Jesus, by sending His one and only Son for you to redeem you out from the darkness and the pit of sin. How wonderful He is! Therefore, when He has given you the best of all the best - Jesus, how much more the other good things that you desire? Be it a wonderful marriage, a divine relationship, a successful career, a rising up business, a good state of health, long life, He will surely not withhold all these things from you! So, when God can feed the birds of the air, when He can take care of the lilies of the field, how much more you my friend? You are the darling in His heart, you are the apple of His eyes, you are the precious one on His palm, so be assured that in this loving Father's embrace, you find favor and honor and good things are chasing after you! Simply because He loves you!

Proverbs 18:10
The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the righteous run to it and are safe.

Dear children of God, thanks be to God that Jesus has made us the righteous one.
By having the identity of righteous one, we can now enjoy the blessings God has for us.
The righteous cannot be uprooted, no matter how the circumstances might be, we are standing on the unshakable ground which is untouchable by the problems, for in Christ we are more than conquerors!
Blessings crown the head of the righteous, therefore whatever we touch shall prosper.
The path of the righteous is like the morning sun, shining ever brighter till the full light of day. Whatever we planned to do, the plans will succeed gloriously for we are made righteous through Christ Jesus.

So, regardless how many bad news are surrounding you, choose to run to the strong tower, He can turns the bad into good.
Though you might face difficulties each day, but you can now take heart, for you can run to the strong tower and find solutions that can bring you through.
When you are sick, run to the strong tower and receive the healing He has accomplished for you.
Stop eyeing on the lacking you have, but start to run to the strong tower that supplies all your needs.

Hold on to Jesus and see what He has done for you. In Him, we are safe and sound.

以弗所书4：26-27生气却不要犯罪，不可含怒到日落；也不可给魔鬼留地步。

当有人以言语伤害我们，或是错待我们，我们並沒有真正放下，只是在伪装，心里却没有真正的释怀。我们把事情深藏心底，试图將所有负面的情绪和反应，都塞进一个封闭的罐子，將封口紧紧封死，然后就將之丢弃一旁说：“好了！我不再去管它了，我已经原谅了那些伤害我的人”。这，只是在逃避，如同鸵鸟在遇敌时把头埋进沙土里。

然而不幸的是，就像一些有毒的废料会泄露一样，那些埋藏在你心里的负面情绪就会一点一滴的流出来，渐渐的就腐噬你的生命，到一个地步，你的不满，你的不甘愿就瞬间爆发了，一发不可收拾。我们不能让苦毒存留在心里，必须化解它。

以弗所书4：31 一切苦毒、恼恨、忿怒、喧闹、毁谤，并一切的恶毒，都当从你们中间除掉。

承认吧！我们都沒有強壯到百毒不侵，所以需要一个比我们更強大的人來依靠。这就是为什么我们需要神，需要耶稣，我们不能孤军作战，不能靠自己来抚平伤痕。唯有把自己沉浸在神的爱里，让爱来浇灌辅助我们，才不会被苦毒辖制，才能活得自在。不要让苦毒往下紮根，要让神的话扎根，才能活出亮丽的人生。所以我们认识神，更亲近祂。诗篇73：28说“我们亲近神是与我们有益”。祂的话都是叫我们得着益处的；祂的话是你患难中随时的安慰，要救你脱离一切患难。啊们！

Philippians 1:9 - And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight.

In the following verse of Philippians 1:9, Paul said "so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ." Many of times, Christians will have the perception of in order to discern on what is best, in order to be pure and blameless in the sight of God, I will just have to do more,achieve good and I can earn that! But know that Paul said, the only way to discern on what is best, the only way to be pure and blameless before is never by your effort and achievement, but rather, when your love abound much more in knowledge and depth of insight! It is when you know how much that Jesus loves you, when this knowledge abound
much more and grows its depth of insight, then you will be able to discern what are the good things from God, then you will know your unshakable identity that Christ has purchased for you, being pure and blameless before God just because of Jesus' finished work! My friend, in Philippians 1:11 says that filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ - to the glory and praise of God! Fruit bearing happens when you know how much you are loved by God, the more you know how much that you have been loved, it changes the way you think, the way you speak, and the way you act! For only the love of Jesus is unfailing and empowering!

林前 3:11 - 因为那已经立好的根基就是耶稣基督，此外没有人能立别的根基。

正所谓：万丈高楼从地起，而最重要让高楼稳固的，肯定就是要有坚固的地基，这地基能够让高楼不轻易被摆动，也不容易倒塌。同样的，若我们要有不被动摇的生命，我们肯定要有稳固的根基，而这根基就是耶稣基督。当我们的源头是基督，我们的生命肯定是被平安，喜乐，丰盛，祝福给充满，并且是大有盼望的。因为知道我们有个深爱我们的主，祂已把我们一切所需要的都预备好了。

朋友们，若要有稳固的根基，我们就必须认识这位基督，因为稳固的根基是建立在神的话语上，在约1:1告诉我们，太初有道，道与神同在，道就是神。我们藉着圣经去认识基督，让我们明白基督为我们所作的一切，并且要去经历祂。要知道，今天在我们的生命里除了基督以外，没有人能立别的根基。在这世上的一切不能成为我们的根基，我们的经济不能，家庭不能，事业不能，健康不能，财富地位权势也不能！因为这一切将会过去，转眼成空，唯有神的话是永远长存，是永不改变的。

因此，要认清我们的源头，立定我们的根基，就是耶稣基督。唯有对的根基，稳固的根基，我们才有对的生命，是不被动摇，是坚固不倒塌的生命。阿门！
