罗马书8：37【然而，靠着爱我们的主，在这一切的事上已经得胜有余了】。

上帝创造我们，给我们生命气息，让我们享受生命，但有时候却觉得是一种折磨，尤其是当面对艰难困苦，挫折和失败的时刻，我们就更加感觉挫败了。上帝赐下福份给每一个人，当你信靠祂，坚守所承认的指望，不要放弃，也不要摇动时，生命必然经历到突破与惊喜（希伯来书10：23）。我们的神必然把最好的给我们，因为这是祂应许的，而这必然要兑现。
约翰一书2：17说『这世界和其上的情慾都要过去，惟独遵行神旨意的，是永远常存」。无论我们的年紀大小或经历如何，我們都同样面对属灵的争战。以弗所书6：12说：我们并不是与属血气的争战，乃是与那些执政的、掌权的、管辖这幽暗世界的，以及天空属灵气的恶魔争战。所以我们虽然在血气中行事，却不凭着血气争战（林后10：3）。我们需要从神而来智慧，指教我们的人生的道路。
我们还活在这恶者掌权的世界，魔鬼就如同嚎叫的狮子，遍地游行，寻找可吞吃的人，但当我们有真理在心中，就不会轻易陷入恶者的网罗，我们是因义得生，身上有着耶稣的印记（加拉太书6:17）。阿门！

John 14:27- Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.

Are you living in constant worry and fear? Are you now in a situation that you do not know how to solve and it has stolen away even your sleep?
My friend, enjoying the abundance of peace is your inheritance; it was purchased and given by Jesus Christ to you! He said that the peace that He gave is not like the peace of the world, which you only have peace when things are going well but you lose it when things are going wrong. But the peace of Jesus is not affected by surroundings, no matter how big is the storm, how strong is the waves, Jesus' kind of peace is able to sleep in the midst of storms, to stand up and rebuke the waves, and even to walk on the water! So that's the peace that you have today, never alter by the surroundings, but that peace of God in you alters the surrounding, the peace of God in you changes everything inside out! So, regardless how troubled you used to be, today choose to look upon Jesus, don't be afraid, for He is with you, in you and for you!

哥林多前书9：27『我是攻克己身，叫身服我，恐怕我传福音给别人，自己反被弃绝了』。

常常，我们习惯妥协于某些習慣或行为，虽然有时表面看起来无伤大雅，但却叫我们得不着益处时，就有需要作调整了。但，这是多么困难啊！然而，有些时候我们们必须这样做，好让生命可以更荣耀神，因为我们都是祂的殿，祂要藉着我们来彰显祂荣耀的全能（哥林多前书3：16）。
举例來说，我们可能过度沉迷於某种活动或是某种食物，但圣经告诉我们必须有所節制（哥林多前书6：12）。凡事都可行，但那些不造就生命或是会绊倒人的事，我们就不要去做，因为身为神的儿女，我们是爱惜自己生命，也顾念其他人，因为在基督里，我们都是一家人。
當我们察觉某些事物会拦阻我们亲近上帝時，靠着上帝的帮助，我们可以不去做，因為上帝应许给我们力量胜过试探（哥林多前书10：13），圣灵也必赐下能力让我们能顺服祂（罗马书8：5）。阿门！

Romans 1:17b - ...just as it is written: “The righteous will live by faith.”

The moment when you accepted Jesus, you're called righteous. Remember, you're not righteous by your effort,
But instead you're righteous by faith in Christ Jesus! Your righteousness is not come from your perfect work, but rather
it comes from Jesus' perfect accomplishment at the cross! So do not doubt your identity in Him! Do know that righteous
shall live by faith. Faith is not having confident in yourself, but faith here tells us to have faith and believe in our Father is our creator,
and Jesus is our messiah, our savior, our redeemer! Faith is solely upon we have a Father who loves us deeply that He has given us
his one and only Son and thus to accomplish all things at the cross, and reconciled us with Him!
So you live by faith! My friend, you're righteous in Christ, don't doubt about your new identity! Therefore, healing is your right,
abundance is your right, favor is your right; stand firm and lift up your head today, have faith in Jesus and claim all that He has is yours!

Acts 27:25 So keep up your courage, men, for I have faith in God that it will happen just as he told me.

Dear friend, how are you today?
Is there lots of things overwhelming you? Are you stressed and pressured?
Today, no matter what are you facing, regardless what are the obstacles ahead of you, you are to know who you have in life and who you trust that give you hope.
Instead of paying attention to what the circumstances say, you can now keep up your courage by having faith in God that things will happen just as he promised.
Instead of believing in what men say, you can now keep up your courage by having faith in God that mountains will be removed just as God said.
Instead of looking at what you can do by your own effort, you can now keep up your courage by having faith in God that because of Christ Jesus, everything you receive shall be freely given and effortlessly from Him alone.

So beloved friend, you can now no longer striving, no longer stress, for in Jesus, we found our rest, peace, joy, hope and all that we need in life.
Have faith in God, friend, because of Him, you and I can now keep up our courage and move on in life victoriously!

约翰福音15：11『这些事我已经对你们说了，是要叫我的喜乐，存在你们心里，并叫你们的喜乐可以满足。』

为什么我们可以不管环境景况如何，仍然可以喜乐？因为祂已经把喜乐给了我们，罗马书6:15说“我们若在祂死的形状上与祂联合，也要在祂复活的形状上与祂联合”。今天，我们的心可以靠耶和华快乐，靠祂的救恩高兴（诗篇35：9）。想想，我们所依靠的神，是对于什么都能处理，万事都难不倒的，当祂与我们同在，我们还有什么理由喜乐不起来呢？

如果你的心里一直存着消极负面的想法，仍然于事无补；但是如果你愿意一开始就抱着信心的心态，期待事情会往好的方面发展，那么，当时候到了，情 况就会好转。我们必须承认，有时候，好事不会如我们所期望的立刻发生。然而，与其无精打采地陷入消极的担忧中，不如将心思专注在上帝身上。你的态度应该 是:「上帝，我知道袮没有忘记我，现在就算我属世的眼睛还没有看见，但在灵界有那奇妙的事情发生，虽然我所期待的事还没有发生，但我知道你掌管我终身的事（诗篇31：15）！所以我不会难过，也不会让自己失望。我知道你安排的时间总是最好的，因此我要保持着信心，相信凡你所做的都是最好的。」

希伯来书10：23『也要坚守我们所承认的指望，不至摇动，因为那应许我们的是信实的。』

Proverbs 17:28- Even fools are thought wise if they keep silent, and discerning if they hold their tongues.

What a wonderful proverbs! Fools are thought wise if they keep silent and discerning if they hold their tongues.
You may be speaking a lot of unwise words in your daily life, you may be unconsciously speaking destructive words over
your finances, health and even your relationship! Do know that though tongue is small, but death and life is lying under the
power of the tongue, for those who love it will eat it's fruit. It means that our words are seed and whatever that we sow,
we will eventually reap! If you speak lack, you are speaking on what you believe you are, therefore you'll see the fruit of lack growing
in your life! If you speak abundance, you're speaking on what you believe, and you'll see the fruits of abundance!
It's just that simple, speak life and receive life! Therefore whatever it is today, keep your tongue in speaking faith filled words, hold your
tongue on speaking hatred, complaints, curses and you'll see you'll eat the fruit of life!

约翰福音8：44你们是出于你们的父魔鬼，你们父的私欲，你们偏要行，他从起初是杀人的，不守真理。因他心里没有真理，他说谎是出于自己，因他本来是说谎的，也是说谎之人的父。

撒旦本来是个大骗子，它利用谎言摧毁一切，毁灭我们对神的信任，使我们心里产生疑惑，或是以为自己再也没有翻转的余地，最后导致我们作茧自缚，使到我们跟人的关系不和睦，对自己对未来失去了盼望。它会跟你说：“你不行的啦，你很倒霉，好事永远也轮不到你，你一点都不重要，有没有你的存在，根本就没人察觉到。。。”
如果这些话听来都似曾相识，那么今天你就要认清楚一点，这些所有负面的声音，都是撒旦为了要阻止你前进，使你得不着从天上来的各样好处，（就是上帝各样属灵的福气，都有形有体的在基督里了），它企图掠夺那些本来属于你的美好，而使用的一贯伎俩。
而当你一个不小心选择相信了它，就会受它辖制，人生就活在谎言中，而不是真理中。所以务要警醒，不要上当了，因为恶者就如同吼叫的狮子，遍地游行，寻找可吞吃的人。当我们定睛仰望神，时刻亲近祂，我们的生命就不会轻易陷入网罗。
箴言3：26因为耶和华是你所依靠的，祂必保守你的脚不陷入网罗。

Mark 4:39- He got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, “Quiet! Be still!” Then the wind died down and it was completely calm.

Before there was any storms, Jesus has promised and said to the disciples that we will go to the other shore. He has said that they will surely make it!
Likewise in our lives, Jesus has said and promised that he has been made poor so that we are rich in Him, he has promised that we are the head and
Never the tail, He has promised that by His stripes you have been healed. He has said and call forth the things that we need in life, though we do not see
but His promises stand firm and it has already been deposited in our lives! All we need to do is to trust Him. Though on the way you will find storms and waves and wind is blowing greatly opposing your journey, but you just have to remember who is the captain of your boat! Who is the captain of your life! Who is the one taking care and promised you that everything is going to be alright?
Therefore, regardless what storms and waves are blowing against you today, know that Jesus is the one who calms the raging sea! With Him in the boat of your life,you will never sink! Trust Him today, impossible is a lie, for all things are possible in Him!
