2 Timothy 2:1- “You then, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus.”
‭‭
You might be facing great challenges now that make you weak and unbearable. You might be feeling
giving up in life, thinking that it is hard for you to move on. But do you know that God is a God of Hope?
He is your source of solutions and help? Whatever that seems to be great challenges, His grace is always
sufficient enough to sustain you and lead you through!
Dear friends, be strong in the grace that's in Christ Jesus, He called you to be strong not depending on your
own, but instead lean on and rely on His grace! His grace is inexhaustible, unending and overflowing; in His
Grace, you find unmerited favor, even when your performance isn't good, even if you may be faithless at times,
but in His grace, you can be strong! You can still move on, you can lift up your head! You are still more than a
conqueror in life! There's nothing about your performance, but solely Jesus' perfect performance! Lean on Him today,
and know that life has not come to the end yet, He is your way and hope!

John 1:35-39
The next day John was there again with two of his disciples.
When he saw Jesus passing by, he said, “Look, the Lamb of God!”
When the two disciples heard him say this, they followed Jesus.
Turning around, Jesus saw them following and asked,” What do you want?” They said, “Rabbi (which means Teacher), “where are you staying?”
“Come,” he replied, “and you will see.” So they went and saw where he was staying, and spent that day with him.

Dear friend, do you know that the God you trust-JESUS, is such a loving God? He concerns everything relates to you! He cares what you care! He take care of your needs. When you heard about Him and choose to follow Him, He is always the one turning around to care for you instead of letting you to run hardly in order to reach Him.

So what do you want today, beloved one?
Maybe you need a financial breakthrough;
Maybe is a healthy body;
Maybe you will say you need good relationship;
Maybe you need a job to survive;
Maybe you have a lot of things to ask for…

But do you realize what the two disciples said to Jesus when they been asked about what do they want?
They only asked Jesus “where are you staying?”, it is because they know when they stay with Jesus, they have all that they need and want!
When you have Jesus, you have life!
When you have Jesus, you have hope!
When you have Jesus, you have wealth and health!
When you have Jesus, you are positioned to a higher place!
When you have Jesus, you have all that you want and all that you need!
So, choose to stay in His presence for He is our all in all.
Remember, He is the Word. So, how much time you spend in the Word is how much time you spend with Him. So let’s spend our each day with Him and enjoy all that He has done for us! He is faithful and He means what He said!
Believe and receive by faith through grace.

诗篇103：11-13
天离地何等的高，祂的慈爱向敬畏祂的人也是何等的大！
东离西有多远，祂叫我们的过犯离我们也有多远！
父亲怎样怜恤他的儿女，耶和华也怎样怜恤敬畏祂的人。

人们会用许多不同的方式來看待上帝，有些人认为祂遙不可及，碰不到也摸不着，但也有人看祂是以一种很普通的方式，偶尔才会想到祂，看祂是可有可无的。还有人认为，上帝就是那位当他们犯错时，会重重惩罚他们的那位神。但圣经告诉我们，我们要如何看這位慈爱的天父。
父爱是給你的，就算你跌倒犯错了,祂帮助你克服挫敗，使你再次站立起来，祂依然是那位爱你的天父，並永远看你为好。很多人都知道神是他们的救世主,但祂也是一位父親,当你晓得祂是本着父亲的心来爱你，你跟祂的关系就呈現出一种全新的意义,你会渴望与祂建立更密切的关系。你知道祂並非那样的遙不可及，祂來不是为了要打击你，祂来乃是给你生命，當你跌倒 時祂会扶起你，當你跌落低谷時，祂会拉起你，当你想放弃時，祂会燃起你的心！
也許你对神的爱感到疑惑，阿爸父祂都知道的，祂所看顾的远超過你所想 (林后4:18)。今天，這位神並沒有离你远去，祂並沒有撇下你置之不理，祂想让你知道，祂就是怎么爱你的父亲。
耶和华啊，现在你仍是我们的父！我们是泥，你是窑匠，我们都是你手的工作。（以赛亚64：8）

在生活中，我们都必须去处理那些离开我们的事情，好比：失去挚爱的人，工作上的挫折，梦想的破灭，人际关系的瓶颈等。我们很容易觉得自己的東西被奪走了，世界从此陷入了黑暗。但对此你可以有兩种态度来回应。你可以说：“上帝，为什么这么不公平，你怎么可以让这种事发生在我身上？你不是看顾保护我的神吗？” 你可以生气的指责，可以自我可怜，可以怨恨全世界。但你也可以有另一种选择，就是向神祷告说：“神阿！我不知道為什么会这样，但我知道我一生的事都在袮手中（诗篇31：15；我也晓得万事都互相效力，叫爱神的人得益处（罗马8：28）。

上帝將新的季節放在袮身上。当你经历失望或伤痛，会很容易就认为“我的生活无法再像当初一样了”。但如果你持守住信心继续前进，这不会只是曾经， 这將是比以前更好。如同约伯一样，耶和华赐给他的，比他从前所有的加倍（约伯记42：10）。这就是我们的神。

現在的问题，“对于那些你认为无法掌控的人事物，你是否愿意放开呢？当你換上嶄新的姿态開始向前走，在上帝计划里，你会看到更好的東西。換句话说，從神的身上你会看見，神的应许超出你所求所想。上帝会带給你更合適的，在你的生命中。你可以維持一個受害者的心態，或者你也可以把你目前的景况完全的交托。

以赛亚书61：7『你们必得加倍的好处，代替所受的羞辱；份中所得的喜乐，代替所受的凌辱。在境内必得加倍的产业；永远之乐必归与你们』。

彼前 3:18 - 因基督也曾一次为罪受苦，就是义的代替不义的，为要引我们到神面前。按着肉体说，祂被治死；按着灵性说，祂复活了。

很多时候，人总觉得自己不配得到神的面前，总觉得应该要先洁净了，神才会喜悦。又或是觉得自己还有太多的坏习惯，要等自己完全改变了才配得到神的面前来。其实，神的话告诉我们说：我来，本是召罪人，不是召义人。（太 9:13）因为我们的神是个怜恤的神，祂体贴我们的软弱，祂知道我们是罪人，更因为如此，祂要救我们脱离罪的权势，把我们牵引到祂爱子的国里。你知道吗？耶稣为了你我，为了在这世上的每一个人，为乐我们的罪受苦，这苦本不该是基督所要受的，本该受苦的其实是我们。然而，神却把耶稣给了我们，代替我们的罪受苦，代替我们的不义，代替我们的贫穷，代替我们的缺陷，代替我们的不足等等，只为了要让今天的我们能够坦然无惧的到神的施恩宝座前，来与祂亲近。

在神爱子的国里，我们是新造的人，我们能够得到新的身份；在那里，我们可以因着耶稣基督而成为圣洁公义，不再靠着我们自己的行为了；在祂的国里，我们能够享受儿子的身份，就是父所有的都是我们的。那爱我们的主早已为了我们预备了一切我们所需要的，在我们还不知道我们前面的路是如何的时候，祂早已晓得，并且已为我们预备了。朋友们，我们要相信我们的主耶稣已为了我们死，更为了我们复活了！因此，我们所有的一切都是活的，不管是我们的家庭，我们的健康，我们的经济，我们的事业，我们一切的一切，都因着耶稣而活过来了。从前不好的，现在因着耶稣都变成好；从前不可能的，如今因着耶稣凡事都能。因为耶稣已代替了我们不好的，给了我们属于祂一切上好的福分。

从今开始，我们不要觉得要靠自己来成就什么事，而是凡事都靠上帝，凡事都靠那爱我们的主。因为祂是唯一最了解我们，最明白我们需要的阿爸父，也是唯一一个能够满足我们需要的主。要记得，如今活着的不再是我们，而是基督在我们里面活着了。阿门！

John 5:24- “Very truly I tell you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be judged but has crossed over from death to life.”
‭‭
Another translation tells us that if we truly open our ears and listen to the Word of God, believe in it, trust in it and rely in it, are actually aligning himself back to God, by doing so, we are letting Jesus to be in charge, and we've made a giant step from the world of the dead to the world of the living.
How wonderful! The word of God is the voice of God, and it's important that as a child of God,
we put our trust on the Word instead of on ourselves! Listening to Him instead of listening to the lies!
We all need to make alignment in our thinking each day, if we do not think of the high things of God, most probably most of
the time we are allowing the lies of the devil to Take charge in our mind! As you align to the Word, you know what? You're giving
Jesus to take charge in every areas of your life! When Jesus is taking charge, you can rest assured that all things shall turn to be well!
Why? You've crossed over from the world of the dead to the world of the living! You've crossed from the world of sickness to the world of health!
You've crossed over from the world of lack to the world of abundance! Your position has changed, therefore choose to listen to God today
by listening to His Word!

today know that as you receive the Word of God and accept it as your own; you've leaped from the world of dead to the world of living! From sickness to health, from fear to courage, from lack to abundance! :)

Psalms 32:10-11
Many are the woes of the wicked, but the Lord’s unfailing love surrounds the man who trusts in Him.
Rejoice in the Lord and be glad, you righteous; sing, all you who are upright in heart!

Dear friend, do you know how blessed you are when you trust in the Lord who loves you with unfailing love?
Though there are problems that you need to face and settle every day, but you can take heart for God’s unfailing love surrounds you, He has overcome the world and therefore you are more than conquerors in His love.
Perhaps you have some symptoms of diseases on your body right now, you are to trust in His unfailing love and what Jesus Christ has done for you on the cross, that by His stripes you are completely healed!
Maybe there are mountains in front of you blocking your ways, but you are to be excited knowing that God’s unfailing love is there surrounding you, no mountain is too big that God cannot moves and nothing is too hard for Him to settle.
When the global economic is going down and not stable, when famine is happening, let not your heart be troubled, keep the hope that Christ has conquered all for you! God supplies you not based on the world economic but is according to the glorious riches He has.
In the brokenness, there His unfailing love comes in and restoration happen. Bad turn to be good and impossible becomes possible.

So no matter what is going on, we are to rejoice and be glad in the Lord, you righteous one! We are to sing and give thanks, the one upright in heart, knowing that God is in control and everything shall be fine and sound in Him!

Enjoy His unfailing love today, relax and see how God moves things favor to you in His presence. Hallelujah!

歌罗西书；3:15『又要叫基督的平安在你们心里面做主，你们也为此蒙召，归为一体；且要存感谢的心』。

有時会觉得得自己的生活不如其他人安逸。當身旁的人似乎都生活的顶不错，顯得一派轻松時，我们卻会因為一件小事而煩躁不安；每當看见旁人如此氣定神閒 時，我们都会羡慕，總是想不通为何自己的生活老是烦扰不断。我们太在乎周围的环境，却忽略了那位最在会乎我们，定意爱我们到一个地步，为我们献上生命的耶稣；我们忘了耶稣是我们的源头。
然而，值得感谢的是，圣经提醒我们，只要有神同在，就可以找到那份真實且能使我得堅固的寧靜。帖撒羅尼迦后1书3：16写 道：『願賜平安的主隨時隨事親自給你們平安！願主常與你們眾人同在』！希伯来书13：8也说我们的主是不会撇下我们，也不会丢弃我们的！
耶稣也说这世上虽有困难，但我们可以放心，祂已经胜了这世界，而我们是得胜有余的！在人生中遭逢動盪不安的歲月里，別忘了在那位賜各樣平安的主里面，你可以得着真實的平安。阿门！

Philippians 4:4- “Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!”
‭‭
Do you know that what is external can never affect you until you give power to it?
Everything surrounds you change, they are but temporary. The only substance that does not change
and is always consistent is you. Therefore, whatever that is happening around you cannot affect you unless
you choose to give your authority and power to it. But do you know what? Your internal can
always change your external! What is in you is greater and it certainly can affect what is outside of you!
But you've to make a decision, rejoicing is a decision. When you rejoice, you do not give power to the sickness,
you do not give power to that fear, you do not give power to that lack!
So, Change your perspective to God's perspective today, rejoice not based on your feeling but based on what Jesus has done!
That's the best remedy for your body! :)
