哥林多后书 3:5 并不是我们凭⾃⼰能承担什么事；我们所能承担的，乃是出于神。 (现代标点和合本)
2Corinthians 3:5 Not that we are sufficient of ourselves to think of anything as being from ourselves, but our sufficiency is from God. (NKJV)

圣经告诉我们，神所差来的就说神的话；因为神赐圣灵给他是没有限量的。惟有当我们的⽣命中有神的话语时，我们才能真实地活出祂要我们活出的⽣命。今天，神要你知道，唯有借着耶稣基督，你的⼈⽣才得以丰盛富⾜。离了主耶稣，你就不能做什么。你在⽣活上的各个⽅⾯都需要有主耶稣同在。当你拥有阿爸⽗，当你有主耶稣与你同在，万事都有可能。在主的⾯前，⼤⼭都要消化如蜡。对于今天带着问题来到这⾥的，主的话语对你说：“不要害怕，因为你所能承担的，乃是出于神。” 我们都喜欢⾃夸，我们拥有的⼀切都是借着⾃⼰的努⼒得着的，我们在事业上的成功，我们⼦⼥的表现卓业，都是因为我们个⼈的能⼒和优秀⽽得着。但圣经告诉我们，并不是我们凭⾃⼰能承担什么事；我们所能承担的，乃是出于神。

The Bible conveys that God bestows the spirit without any limit so that those whom He sent can proclaim the word of God. We can only truly live the life He desires when we have the word of God in our lives. Today, God desires you to know that you can only be sufficient through Jesus Christ. Without Jesus, you can do nothing. You need Jesus in every aspect of your life. When you have your Abba Father, when you have Jesus, everything is possible. In the presence of the Lord, the mountains will melt like wax. For those who come to church with problems today, the word for you from the Lord is, “Fear not, because your sufficiency is from the Lord”. We often claim that our achievements are solely from our efforts, and that our successful business, and our children are all due to who and what we are. On the contrary, the bible states that we cannot be sufficient by ourselves; our sufficiency is from God.

以弗所书 5:13b-14 ...⼀切能显明的就是光。所以主说：你这睡着的⼈，当醒过来，从死⾥复活，基督就要光照你了。(现代标点和合本)
Ephesians 5:13b-14 …whatever makes manifest is light. Therefore He says: “Awake, you who sleep, Arise from the dead, And Christ will give you light.” (NKJV)

当有光照耀时，就会被显明。 即便你有坏习惯，或者⻓期的瘾症，⼜或是你正经过死荫的幽⾕，当你看到主耶稣的荣光临到你时，它会在你的⽣命中彰显出神的⼀切祝福。也许你说你看不⻅神为你所预备健康、祝福、良好的关系等，那是因为你没有把灯开了。在你⼼中缺少对神的启⽰以及祂给予你的丰盛⽣命。当你睡着时，你的眼睛是闭着的。 圣经说你当醒过来，睁开眼睛，从死⾥复活。当你睁开眼睛，你就能够从你的问题，困扰和所有的疾病中复活。 你曾经死了，但现在你可以⾛出坟墓了。 当你告诉主耶稣你要醒悟过来，主耶稣会给你祂的亮光。 神会赐给你光明和荣耀，使你和你的家⼈、你旁边的⼈都能在你的⽣命中看到神的荣耀。

When there is light, there will be manifestation. Even if you have bad habits or addictions in your life, or maybe you are walking through a dark valley, when you see the glory of the Lord come upon you, it will manifest all the blessings of God in your life. Perhaps the good health, the blessings, the good relationships that God has given you are not visible to you because you did not switch on the light - The revelation of who God is, and what He has given you is not present in your heart. When you sleep, your eyes are closed. The bible encourages you to wake up, open your eyes and arise from the dead. When you open your eyes, you will be able to rise up from your problems, from your issues, and from all your sicknesses. You were once dead, but now you can walk out of the tomb. When you tell the Lord that you want to be awake, Jesus will give you the light. God will give you light and glory, so that you, your family, and the people around you will be able to see the glory of God in your life.

加拉太书 2:20-21 我已经与基督同钉⼗字架，现在活着的不再是我，乃是基督在我⾥⾯活着。并且我如今在⾁⾝活着，是因信神的⼉⼦⽽活，他是爱我，为我舍⼰。我不废掉神的恩，义若是借着律法得的，基督就是徒然死了！(现代标点和合本)
Galatians 2:20-21 I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me. I do not set aside the grace of God; for if righteousness comes through the law, then Christ died in vain. (NKJV)

如同保罗在这节经⽂中所说的，我已经与基督同钉⼗字架。现在活着的不再是我， 乃是基督在我⾥⾯活着。我们与基督同死，并且在祂⾥⾯复活为义⼈。并且我如今在⾁⾝中活着，是因信神的⼉⼦⽽活， 祂是爱我，为我舍⼰。倘若没有这份爱， 这⼀切都不会发⽣，我们都注定⾛向灭亡。之前我们了解到，我们凭着信得进⼊现在所站的这恩典中。我们也了解到，义⼈是被恩惠慈爱环绕着。所以，我们需要这份恩宠。如果义是藉着律法得的，基督就是徒然死了！今天，我们不相信义是藉着我们的表现或律法得来的，⽽我们之所以称义，是因为相信主耶稣从死⾥复活了。所以现在我们称义不是因着律法，⽽是因着基督在⼗架上的完⼯，我们被称为义。我们不废掉神的恩，⽽是紧紧捉住祂的恩典，因着相信我们是公义的，⽽在今年， 我们每⼀天都要经历这恩上加恩的⽣命。

Like Paul said in this verse, we have also been crucified with Christ. The life that we now live is not ours but Christ who lives in us. We died with Christ and we have been raised up as righteous in Him. The life we now live in the flesh, we live by faith in the Son of God, who loved us and gave Himself for us. Without His love, none of these would have happened and we would all be doomed for hell. Earlier on, we learned that we have access by faith into the grace of God. We also learnt that the righteous will be surrounded with His favour. Hence, we want this favour of God. If righteousness comes through the law, then Christ died in vain. Today we do not believe that righteousness comes from our performances or through the law, but we say we are righteous because we believe that Jesus was raised from the dead. All of us here are righteous because of Jesus and not because of the law. We are not setting aside the grace of God but instead we are clinging onto His grace and because we believe that we are righteous, we will experience His grace upon grace every single day of our lives this year.

提多书 2:11-12 因为神救众人的恩典已经显明出来，教训我们除去不敬虔的心和世俗的情欲，在今世自守、公义、敬虔度日，(现代标点和合本)
Titus 2:11-12 For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age, (NKJV)

正是神的恩典带来了救恩。之前我们学习到我们得救是本乎恩。今天，因为神的恩典已经向我们显明了 - 我们有神的恩惠与祝福，祂爱我们，我们是与祂站在同⼀阵线上。当我们明⽩我们已经领受了恩典，这恩典教导我们除去不敬虔的⼼和世俗的情欲。重要的是要意识到神的恩典与你同在；是神的恩典教导你来爱你的配偶，并控制你的脾⽓。当我们依靠⾃⼰的意志⼒来控制 坏习惯时，我们总会失败。⼀切皆是神的恩典在教导我们。当晓得，⽆论我们是谁，或处于怎么样的环境中，神的恩典时刻与我们同在。

It is the grace of God that brings salvation. Earlier on, we learnt that it is by grace we have been saved. Today, the grace of God which brings salvation is already in all of us – we have God’s favor and His blessings. God loves us and we are on the right standing with Him. When we understand that we have received God’s grace, this grace can teach us to deny ungodliness and worldly lusts. It is important to realise that the grace of God is with you. It is the grace of God that teaches you to love your spouse, and to control your temper. When we depend on our own willpower to control our bad habits, we will always fail. It is the grace of God that can teach us to do so, and we need to understand that the grace of God is always with us no matter who we are and what circumstances we are in.

腓⽴⽐书 2:15-16 使你们⽆可指摘，诚实⽆伪，在这弯曲悖谬的世代作神⽆瑕疵的⼉⼥。你们显在这世代中，好像明光照耀，将⽣命的道表明出来，叫我在基督的⽇⼦好夸我没有空跑，也没有徒劳。(现代标点和合本)
Philippians 2:15 that you may become blameless and harmless, children of God without fault in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world, (NKJV)
Philippians 2:16 as you hold firmly to the word of life. And then I will be able to boast on the day of Christ that I did not run or labor in vain. (NIV)

我们得以成为神⽆可指摘，并诚实⽆伪的⼉⼥，是因为神⾸先在我们⼼⾥运⾏，⽽不是靠着我们⾃⼰的努⼒。弯曲悖谬的世代指的是我们现今的时代，因为我们看到现今的世界充满着歪曲和荒缪的观念。 然⽽，当我们在这⿊暗中的世代中⽣存时，圣经说我们好像明光照耀。当世界越来越⿊暗，神的⼉⼥是兴起发光的。星星在什么时候最闪亮呢？ 在城市中，有时你甚⾄看不到星星，因为都被城市的灯光遮蔽了。 然⽽，当你去到郊区较为⿊暗的地⽅时，星星就显得特别闪亮。那么，我们的⽣命如何才能像天上的星星⼀样闪闪发亮呢？ 当你紧紧抓住⽣命的话语时，你就像天上的星星⼀样闪耀。 当你紧紧抓住基督的话语，圣经应许你们将如同天空中的星星⼀样闪亮。 怎样才能如同星星⼀样闪闪发亮呢？ 你该怎么做好让你能发光呢？ 圣经说，当你在生命中前进，紧紧抓住神的话语并定睛于基督时，你就会如同天上的星星⼀样明光照耀。

We become blameless and are the children of God without fault because God works in us first, not through our own efforts. The crooked and perverse generation refers to the crooked and perverse ideas in the world. Nevertheless, in the midst of this darkness, the bible proclaims that we shine as lights in the world. The darker the world, the brighter the children of God shine. When do stars shine the brightest? When you are in the city, sometimes you cannot even see the stars because the brilliance of the city lights obscures them. However, when you go to the outskirts of the city where it can become very dark, over there the stars shine the brightest. So how do you shine like the stars in the sky? You will shine like the stars in the sky as you hold firmly to the word of life. Church, as you move into with holding firmly onto the word of Christ, the bible promises that you will shine like stars in the sky. How can you shine like the stars? What should you do so that you can shine? The bible says, if you hold on firmly to the word, if you focus on the word of Christ, you will shine like stars in the sky.

路加福音 19:10人子来，为要寻找、拯救失丧的人。(现代标点和合本)
Luke 19:10 for the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost. (NIV)

圣经应许我 们，我们在地上的⽣活可以活的如同在天上。我们们被召乃不是要过着艰难刻苦的⽣活。 圣经记载，与主耶稣最亲近的⼀位⻔徒，约翰，他祷告愿我们凡事兴盛，⾝体健壮，正如你们的灵魂兴盛⼀样。我们的主耶稣渴望你在⼀切事上兴盛并且⾝体健 康。你知道吗？今天我们可以活的在地上如同在天上，是因着有⼀个⼈，祂从天堂 来到了⼈世间。圣经告诉我们，道成了⾁⾝。主耶稣成了⾁⾝，为了我们的缘故， 从天上来到⼈间。因此，主耶稣也是完全的⼈，祂体恤了解我们的⼀切处境，只是祂没有罪。 我们都不完美。活在世上，很多时候我们 都觉得我们是有资格的，我们配得拥有许 多。但圣经却说世⼈都犯了罪，亏缺了神 的荣耀。 然⽽，好消息是因着耶稣基督⼀⼈的救 赎，不是来⾃其他任何⼈，⽽是因为天堂 来到了⼈世间，我们如今在神眼中是配得，是称义的。

The bible promises us that we can live life on earth as though we are in heaven. We are not called to live a life of hardships. The bible states that the disciple John, who was closest to the Lord Jesus, prays that we will prosper in all things and be in health. Our Lord Jesus desires you to prosper and be in health. Do you know that today we can all live a life of heaven on earth because someone from heaven came down to this earth? The bible tells us that the Word was made flesh. Jesus came down from heaven to this earth for our sake as a man. Therefore, since Jesus is also a man, He understands all our circumstances, yet He never sinned. Every one of us falls short of the mark. We may feel that we are entitled in this world, but the bible says all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.

罗⻢书 8: 32 神既不爱惜⾃⼰的⼉⼦为我们众⼈舍了，岂不也把万物和他⼀同⽩⽩的赐给我们吗？(现代标点和合本)
Romans 8:32 He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things? (NKJV)

神为我们赐下祂的独⽣爱⼦。祂既不爱惜⾃⼰的⼉⼦，却为我们众⼈舍了。神若将祂的⼉⼦给了我们，岂不也把万物和祂⼀同⽩⽩的赐给我们吗？因此在⽣命中，我们当专注的不应当是在“事物”上 ，不单只是在医治、⾦钱、或者关系上，⽽是应当专注在神为我们舍下祂“⼉⼦”的这件事上。 当你有启⽰明⽩这⼉⼦为我们牺牲所付上的代价，你所寻求的⼀切“万物”都会⽩⽩的赐给你。因此，次序是以“耶和华是我的牧者，我必不致缺乏”为开始 (诗篇23) —— 我们所寻求的应当是这位⼤牧者。然后在第六节说道，⼀⽣⼀世必有恩惠慈爱随着我们。因此，我们当把专注⼒聚焦在主耶稣⾝上，⽽不是在事物上， 然⽽在我们所过的属天⽣活中，我们会拥有我们所需要的⼀切，因为主耶稣必供应。简⽽⾔之，神若将祂最宝贵的独⽣⼦赐给我们，为何祂还留着次要的不给我们呢？神若将祂的⼉⼦赐给我 们，还有什么⽐祂的⼉⼦更有价值呢？

God gave His Son for us. He did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us. If God is willing to give us His Son, how shall He not also freely give us all things? Hence, our focus in life should not be on “things” – healing, money, or relationships, but rather on “the Son” which God did not spare but delivered up for us. If you have a revelation of the price of the Son which God sacrificed for you, all the “things” you seek will come to fruition. Psalm 23 starts with The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want -it is the Shepherd we should always seek. Furthermore, verse 6 says that goodness and mercy will chase after you all the days of your life. Hence, we will all put our focus on the Lord and not on things, and yet in the heavenly life that we live, we will have all the things that we need because Jesus will supply. Simply put, if God could give us His only Son, why would He withhold all these lesser things from us? If God can give us His Son, what else is of more value than the Son?

哥林多前书 4:7 使你与⼈不同的是谁呢？你有什么不是领受的呢？若是领受的，为何⾃夸，仿佛不是领受的呢？(现代标点和合本)
1Corinthians 4:7 For who makes you differ from another? And what do you have that you did not receive? Now if you did indeed receive it, why do you boast as if you had not received it? (NKJV)

使你与⼈不同的是谁呢？是什么使你更出⾊呢？你有什么不是领受的呢？你所拥有的⼀切都是从神⽽来的。如果你已经领受 了，为何还⾃夸，仿佛不是领受的呢？我们往往会⾃夸，仿佛这⼀切都是我们⾃⼰赚取的。我们为⼦⼥的成功、我们的财富与外貌等夸⼝，好像这⼀切都是凭借我们⾃⼰努⼒得来的。但圣经说：“你有什么不是领受的呢？” 你所拥有的⼀切，都是从神那⾥领受的。那么，你为什么要⾃夸呢？ 圣经在哥林多后书12:9 写道 - 他对我说：我的恩典够你⽤的，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。 保罗说他更喜欢夸⾃⼰的软弱和不⾜。当你晓得你所拥有的⼀切都是神⽽来，如同保罗⼀样，你会更愿意夸⾃⼰的软弱，好 叫基督的能⼒覆庇你。与其夸⼝你的财产，不如夸⼝你的软弱。让我们能够坦然承认其实我们⼀⽆所有，我们所有的⼀切都是从神来的，好叫基督的能⼒得以覆庇我。 尽管我们尚未看到，但我们知道基督的能⼒在我们⾝上。我们在⾼⼭上，在街道上宣告主耶稣的名，我们祷告在⿊暗中主耶稣的能⼒胜过每⼀个敌⼈。主耶稣是为我们的家庭，所以我们宣告主耶稣的圣名。阿们！

Who makes you different from another? What makes you better? What do you have that you did not receive? Everything you have is received from God. If you have received it, why do you boast as if you had not received it? Very often we boast as though we earned it by ourselves. We boast about our children’s success, our possessions, our looks, etc as if all these are by our own efforts. But the Bible says, “What do you have that you did not receive?” All that you have, you received from God. So why do you boast? Bible in 2Corinthians 12:9 - And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. Paul said he would rather boast in his infirmities or weaknesses. When you know that all you have was received from the Lord, like Paul you would want to boast in your weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may rest upon you. Instead of boasting about your possessions, it would be better to boast about your weaknesses. Let us come to a point where we can say that in fact, we have nothing because all that we have is from the Lord, that the power of Christ may rest upon us. Although we cannot see it yet, we know the power of Christ rests upon us. We speak Jesus from the mountains, we speak Jesus in the streets, and we pray Jesus’ power in the darkness over every enemy. Jesus is for our family, so we speak the holy name of Jesus. Amen!

以弗所书 6:15 ⼜⽤平安的福⾳，当作预备⾛路的鞋穿 在脚上。(现代标点和合本)
Ephesians 6:15 “readiness” and with your feet fitted with the readiness that comes from the gospel of peace. (NIV)

以弗所第六章说到神的全副军装，其中提到了关于脚的部分。你的双脚很重要，因 为它意表着你在⽣命中所⾛的每⼀个步伐。今天我们正处 在⼀场属灵的争战中，但当我们进⼊平安，当我们的⼼思意念停留在主耶稣⾝上，当晓得在神⾯前我们是义⼈，平安的福⾳就装备我们的⼼，使我们准备好面对⽣活中的各样挑战，这样，⽆论发⽣什么 事，我们都可以⼤声说，那在我⾥⾯的，⽐那在世界上的更⼤。今天，我们可以⼤胆宣告，在主耶稣⾯前，我们的问题都必消化如蜡。有时候， 我们觉得⾃⼰还没有准备好⾯对未知的明天，这就是压⼒的源头。然后我们失眠，对周围的⼈变得易怒和暴躁。这⼀切，都源于内⼼深处的惧怕。圣经说，因我们并不是与属⾎⽓ (⼈) 的争战，乃是与那些执政的、掌权的、属灵⽓的恶魔争战。 因此，问题不是出于你的配偶，也不是在于那个总挑剔你的⼈，⽽是天空属灵的， 是恶者 (魔⻤) 要来偷窃、杀害和毁灭你的⽣命。但今天⾝为教会，当我们宣告我们要进⼊四境平安，我们的⼼思意念就不再停留在别的事物上，只停留在主耶稣⾝ 上，我们将看到更多的神迹奇事发⽣在教会。

In Ephesians 6 which speaks about the armour of God, there is one part about your feet. Your feet is important because it signifies where you walk in life. Today we are in a spiritual warfare but when we go into peace, when our mind is stayed on Jesus, when we understand that we are the righteousness of God, this gospel of peace gives us a readiness to walk our life, so that no matter what comes we can say that My God, who is inside me is greater than the one outside.Today, we can boldly declare that in the presence of Jesus, our problems will melt like wax. Sometimes we may feel that we are just not ready to face tomorrow and that is why stress comes in. Then we start losing sleep and get irritable and grumpy with the people around us. All these stems from fear in the first place. The bible says that our battle is not against flesh and blood (people) but against spiritual authority. Therefore, the problem is not your spouse, the problem is not that person who is always picking on you but the problem is something spiritual, the devil who wants to steal, kill, and destroy your life. But today, as a church, when we declare that we want to enter that place of shalom peace, where our mind is not stayed on anything else but only on the person on Jesus, we will be ready to see more miracles happen in church.
