You're Like Him

Monday, January 26, 2015

Galatians 1:24- And they praised God because of me.

Do you know that you're no longer the old you when you accepted Jesus?
Your life is now in Him, and you are now like Him. That's why the Word of God says,
you are a new creation, the old has gone and the new has come! And a new creation
means you're a recreated being, a totally new species, that never exists before! Therefore,
you are to be sure that the old you has died, and the new you is like God!
Therefore, your life is a living bible, you are the advertisement of Jesus Christ. People sees
Jesus through your life! People recognize the difference of you when you walk in line with the
Word of God, when you live out the life of Jesus. Hence, it is important to walk your life in His Word,
Keep your focus on Him and you'll be like Him, from glory to glory! Like unveiled faces, as you behold Jesus
and His Words, you'll transformed to be like Him!
Remember, you're like your Father, strong, generous, loving and forgiving! And ultimately, let your life be
the open witness for people around you, that as they see you, they give praises to the wonderful works of
God!

神美好的计划

Monday, January 26, 2015

耶 29：11 - 耶和华说：“我知道我向你们所怀的意念，是赐平安的意念，不是降灾祸的意念，要叫你们末后有指望。

上帝有美好的计划给你。祂的心里有你。祂知道什么对你来说是最好的。祂对你的意念，是要赐福的意念，不是降灾祸的意念。没有任何东西可以攻击你。恶者所有不好的意念，上帝可以把它们都变成好。上帝要赐福你的家庭；上帝要赐福你的经济。同样的，你的生命，上帝也要赐福。

你要知道你的过去不能断定你的未来。你的未来在神的手中。祂掌管你的明天。祂对你所怀的意念是给你盼望和未来。盼望不是愿望，它不是有可能是，也有可能不是。圣经里说的盼望是有信心的期盼，也就是说，你是有信心的期盼着更好的未来。你知道你的生命不会再一样。你有信心知道你会弹的更高。你会很清楚的知道你的未来是闪闪发光的！

今天，你拥有盼望和未来。你的未来在神祂的手中。祂说，祂是你的牧者，你必不至于缺乏（诗篇 23：1）。你的未来不会缺乏；你的生命也一样不会缺乏。当神走在你前面，你知道你必定蒙福！

不属这世界

Monday, January 26, 2015

约翰福音17：16他们不属世界，正如我不属世界一样。

相信每一人都知道，且都认同地上的这个家园只是短暂的，每一样人事物都不能长存，因为我们只是过客，有朝一日我们就如雾般转眼即逝。雅各书4：14【其实明天如何，你们还不知道。你们的生命是什么呢？你们原是一片云雾，出现少时就不见了】。
按着命定，人人都有一死，且死后有审判（希伯来9：27）。每个人的肉体都会朽坏，都会面对死亡，但耶稣基督的死却救赎了我们的灵魂，赐给我们永生。因着祂的爱，我们不至灭亡，反得着永生（约翰3：16），祂更赐给我们那属天的福气，以及超自然的能力去完成使命，且充满恩惠与慈爱，凡我们所到之处，都有基督的芬芳散发出来，凡脚掌所踏之地，都是应许之地。
所以不要怀疑，你可以全然相信祂救赎的大能可以把我们过去、现在，甚至未来的罪都洗净了，而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（罗马6：5）。如今我们虽然还生存在世上，却不属于这世界，我们却是天上的国民（腓立比书3：20）

You're Qualified

Sunday, January 25, 2015

1 Corinthians 7:23- You were bought at a price; do not become slaves of human beings.

Why would one always seek of approval of men? When he doesn't know about his value
and when he has no confident that he is unique! You see, many are seeking the approval
of men, and they are happy when people accepts and approves them, but if they are not,
they will easily get disappointed and choose to give up. God has redeemed us, and redeemed
means we are purchased and now belong to Him alone. Therefore, He doesn't want us to be
slaves of men, that we are always looking upon people's approval and live life in fear and
insecurity. Instead, He wants us to know that we were bought at a price, and that price costs
Jesus his life! He doesn't want us to be slaves of men, but He wants us to know that we are no
longer slaves, but His children! How wonderful! Therefore, know that your value has changed,
your value is no longer determine by the world's requirements and qualifications, but your value
is now determine by God your Father! As Jesus is, so are you in this world! Hence, know that you're
special, unique, precious, one and only! You're qualified and approved by God, you're accepted in
Christ, you're no longer a slave of men but a child of God! So, change your mind today and know that
you're precious and honored in God's sight, when He has qualified you,
no one can disqualified you!

Secured In His Love

Saturday, January 24, 2015

Psalms 36:7- How priceless is your unfailing love, O God! People take refuge in the shadow of your wings.

Do you know how much that you're loved by God? And you're unable to earn this love by your
obedience and good works, but instead because God is love! No matter what is your past, be
it you're lack of love when you grow up, be it that you've been hurt badly by people, know that
God's love for you is constant and never measure by your efforts. He loves you so much that
He is willing to give you His only Son, Jesus and all that He has! He never leave you as an orphan
but he came to you, as a Father, He longs to embrace you and tells you every single day that you're
His beloved!
When you're immersed in the love of God, His unfailing love will sustain you and transform you.
His love is so priceless that you can never earn by your effort but through Jesus, and His finished work,
you're able to enjoy this Father's love like a child. Not just knowing, but also believe. So, you can be
ensure that you can take refuge in Him and you're secured in His love! Come to Him like a child and
enjoy Him like a Father today, you'll be amazed by His priceless love!

爱

Saturday, January 24, 2015

约一 4:16 神爱我们的心，我们也知道、也信。神就是爱！住在爱里面的，就是住在神里面，神也住在他里面。

亲爱的朋友，你知道爱在我们生命中是多么的重要吗？
如今长存的有信，有望，有爱；这三样，其中最大的是爱。
没有爱，我们就算不得什么。
不是我们爱神，乃是神爱我们，差他的儿子，为我们的罪作了挽回祭，这就是爱了。神既是这样爱我们，我们也当彼此相爱。从来没有人见过神，我们若彼此相爱，神就住在我们里面，爱他的心在我们里面得以完全了。
所以，当我们一切都以爱来回应时，我们周围的人都能藉着我们看见耶稣。
朋友记得，爱是恒久忍耐，又有恩慈；爱是不嫉妒，爱是不自夸，不张狂，不作害羞的事，不求自己的益处，不轻易发怒，不计算人的恶，不喜欢不义，只喜欢真理；凡事包容，凡事相信，凡事盼望，凡事忍耐。爱是永不止息。

纵然要在面对问题时以爱来回应并不简单。但你可以放心朋友，因为我们并不是以自己的能力以爱回应，乃是依靠那住在我们里面的神来爱。我们只需要藉着他的话常在他里面，他也常在我们里面。有他在我们里面，我们就能自然而然的以爱来面对一切，因为神就是爱！

因此，让我们采取行动以爱来回应吧！当我们行动时，爱就在空气中。在你周围的每一个人都必能经历那奇妙并充满能力的爱。
就从那里，人的生命开始因着所领受的爱被感动而改变。
爱，爱，爱，让这爱藉着你流露吧！
大大蒙福！

LOVE

Friday, January 23, 2015

1John 4:16 And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him.

Dear friend, do you know love is so important in our life?
And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.
Without love, we are nothing.
LOVE is not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. Since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and His love is made complete in us.
Therefore, when we react everything with love and in love, people around us can see Jesus through our life.
Remember this, friend, love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast,it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices in truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.

Though it might seem hard for us to response with love when we are facing problems, but take heart friend, for we are not reacting in love by using our own effort but is with effortless by relying and trusting in God who lives in us. What we need to do is just remain in Him through the Word for He is the Word and He will remains in us. By Him abiding in us, it will be automatically for us to live our life with love and in live because He is love!

Hence, let us take the action by moving in the love. When we react, the love is in the air. Everyone around you shall experience the amazing and powerful love of God. From there, people's life shall be impacted and changed through the love they have received.
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, let the love flows through you.
Be blessed!

听从神的

Friday, January 23, 2015

箴 1：33 - 惟有听从我的，必安然居住，得享安静，不怕灾祸。

在我们每天的生活中，会有各种各样不同的声音在围绕我们。有消极的，有积极的，有愤怒的，有埋怨的，又高兴的，有忧愁的，有打击你的，有称赞的等等，每一个情绪其实或多或少都在影响着我们。但是，唯一最重要的乃是要分辨神的声音，要认得主的声音，听从祂的声音，好让我们的生活不至失去了方向。

朋友们，今天我们要选择听从对的声音。一个对的声音是能够引领我们走对的道路，并且在这路上是有帮助，是顺利，是丰盛的。一个对的选择能让我们所做的事更加有效率，能够事半功倍。而这个对的声音就是神的声音，就是神的话。当我们定睛在神的话语上，昼夜思想，就必看见生活上的一切开始有所转变，要把那不好的变成好，好的更要荣上加荣。因为我们的主祂来是要给我们更丰盛的生命。你知道吗？当我们听从神的话，祂必保守我们安然居住，因为祂是我们的盾牌，是我们的避难所，更是我们随时的帮助。经上记着说：神的言话句句都是炼净的，凡投靠祂的，祂便要做他们的盾牌。（箴 30:5）

因此，在主里我们是被保守的，是神所顾念的一群，是带着福分的一群。所以，我们要时时刻刻警醒，听从主的声音，跟随神的话，活出神所给我们的应许。这样，当人看见我们，就必看见神的荣耀彰显在我们身上，因此我们能把荣耀归给父神。阿门！

打包好的行李

Friday, January 23, 2015

当我们去旅行，总希望準備妥當，帶齊了所有需用的東西。在我們靈命的旅程中，我們也會感到焦慮，常常懷疑是否準備好，可以完成使命，我們希望在對的時候到對的位置，我們希望討神喜悅，想要做的更好；如同在打包行李时，确保不会缺少一样。

诗篇34：9-10耶和华的圣民哪，你们当敬畏祂，因敬畏祂的一无所缺。少壮狮子还缺食忍饿；但寻求耶和华的，什么好处都不缺。

今天要告訴你一個好消息，你的旅程已經安排妥當了！你的行李都已經打包好了！上帝親自為你打包，而且決不會少東少西，祂已考慮到每一個細節與你所需要的每件東西，你有適用的天份與恩賜，你有適合的個性，你有完成生命中每個階段與任務所需用的。
今天，你無需憂慮生命中的任何事，因為上帝將你捧在手掌心上（以赛亚49：16），若你再懷疑你是否準備好了，就奉主的名宣告「我的行李打包好了，我已擁有所有完成我的命定的能力」。阿门！

Recognize Him

Thursday, January 22, 2015

Proverbs 1:33- but whoever listens to me will live in safety and be at ease, without fear of harm.”

Do you know that the moment when you wake up, thoughts and voices
are waiting to bombard you without acquiring your permission? Whether
you like it or not, they are always there flooding your thoughts. Therefore,
as a child of God and as a sheep of our Great Shepherd, we have to recognize
His voice instead of others. Only what He says brings us peace and assurance,
hope and comfort, and ultimately faith in Him! So, instead of listening to all the
negative voices, start to listen to the Word of God, for only the Word of God is able
to keep you in safety, ease and without fear of harm!
But the voice of the evil, the wolves are always to kill steal and destroy, it is never to
build you up! However, in order to recognize someone's voice, you'll have to develop
a relationship. You're to develop a relationship with God, and it enables you to recognize
Him no matter you're in what kind of circumstances!
So, Recognize your Shepherd's voice today, and ignore the wolves' voices!
And you shall be at ease and fear of no harms!

Let Thankfulness Fills Your Mouth

Wednesday, January 21, 2015

1 Thessalonians 5:18- in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.

The children of God is called to use their lips to give praises and give thanks.
Our lips are called to give sacrifices to God and this sacrifice is a sacrifice of praise!
Know that death and life is under the power of your tongue, and what you speak
affects your life! Therefore, as you look at those who always speak of gossips and complaints,
all the more they speak, all the more they are bound in anger and discontentment.
You see, complaints and gossips never help but tear lives down; instead of looking at the natural,
look up to the supernatural! In everything, start to give thanks to The Lord, thank Him for his goodness,
thank Him for blessing you with a wonderful day, thank Him for never leaving you,
as you give thanks to The Lord, praise flows, love flows, and forgiveness flows!

赐恩的神

Wednesday, January 21, 2015

腓 4：7 - 神所赐出人意外的平安，必在基督耶稣里，保守你们的心怀意念。

我们的神是赐恩的神，祂赐下一切丰盛荣耀给我们每一个相信祂的人。在我们人生的道路上，难免有起有落的时候，也有面对问题的时候。但是，在每一个环境中，神都赐下那出人意外的平安给我们，好让我们的脚步不至滑跌。在我们每一件事情上，神都与我们同在，祂比谁都还要顾念我们所顾念的，所在乎一切，祂比任何人都还要我们得着祝福。

其实，在我们的每一个决定中，神都赐给我们智慧，好让我们能做一个明智且对的选择。在每一个人生的岔口上，神也必指引我们的道路，使我们的道路可以亨通顺利。在每一个人生的战场中，神都加给我们力量，因着祂，我们是得胜有余的一群，就算情况再坏，我们的神依然是打胜仗的神，因为在祂没有难成的事。而在每一个环境中，祂都赐给我们平安，使我们能在基督里得着一切的荣耀。

朋友们，我们的神既是一个体恤我们的软弱，却又用厚恩待我们的神，更甚的是祂把一切给了我们。因此，我们不可徒受祂的恩典，总要在基督的知识和智慧上渐渐长大成人，也让我们的生命是荣耀神的名，叫人因此看出我们真是祂的门徒。所以，今天若要看见我们的生命得着改变，我们的眼目就要定睛在祂的话语上，不偏左不偏右，只管紧紧跟随祂，因为信靠祂的必不至于羞愧，而是得着更丰盛的生命。阿门！

不断绝的指望

Wednesday, January 21, 2015

箴言23:18因为至终必有善报，你的指望也不致断绝。

在人生當中常會遇到令人失望沮丧的事，而且往往找不到满意的答案，如果还一再追根究底，就很容易让自己陷入无法自拔的地步。然而在黑暗中，在人生的低谷，當你想起上帝的榮耀、尊貴、能力、慈愛，你的绝望感就會慢慢地消退，心再次活起来。因为圣经说，你的指望是不致断绝，因为在基督里，永远都有那活泼的盼望（彼前1：3）
歌罗西书3:2-3你们要思念上面的事，不要思念地上的事。因为你们已经死了，你们的生命与基督一同藏在神里面。
这意表着我们的过往、老我、失败都死了，在基督里我们是新造的人。你当默想上帝的作為，尤其是祂藉由耶穌基督所帶來的救恩，你就可以以一颗感恩的心，完全信靠祂的大愛；并知道这爱是过于人所能测度的，便叫祂一切所充满的，充满了你（以弗所书3：19）。

主啊，當试炼臨到，也许我無法明瞭，
但我们不要作茧自缚，
幫助我藉由效法祢的良善，思念祢榮美的慈愛，
让我的眼目仰望袮，回到祢愛的懷抱中。
記得過去蒙恩的經歷，能為現在帶來盼望。阿门!

Faith vs Fear

Tuesday, January 20, 2015

Isaiah 41:10- So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

Dear friends, the opposite of faith is fear, as you start to stay in the zone of fear, you're staying in defeat
and you'll be easily devoured by the enemies. Do know that faith and fear can never stay together, when
faith is believing and trusting in God, fear is believing and trusting in the circumstances. If you're in fear,
it falters your strength. How does one fearful? When one is fearful of his health, he is seeing sickness greater
as compared to the Word. When one is fearful of his financial issues, he is trusting in the greatness of lack,
instead of trusting the supply of God!
On the other hand, Faith in God's words keep us in the zone of victory. Looking upon His Word instead of the
surroundings, it keeps you always and always be reminded of your victory in Christ. Knowing that there's nothing
by your obedience anymore, but solely by the obedience of Jesus Christ and thus, His completed finished work!
Therefore remember, He will help you, He is faithful in keeping His Word, when He helps, nothing is impossible! :)

I Will Help You

Monday, January 19, 2015

Isaiah 41:13- For I am the Lord your God who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you.

Today know that the king of all kings, and The Lord of all lords is your God!
Not only your God, but He is your Father. No matter what is going on around you,
be it sickness, attacks, fears, lack, broken relationship, know that you're never alone
but you have Him with you! It is so important in trusting Jesus and believe that He is always
with you. Good things happen to those who believes in Him and trust on His
unfailing love! So, don't be afraid and don't be in tears anymore today, remember that
your Father in Heaven is always holding your hand. He is holding your hand, bringing you to
the best place and eating the best fruits! You are not left as an orphan, but He came to you as
a loving Father! He is now telling you, I will help you; and be sure that when He says He will, He will surely do it!

将心归于主

Monday, January 19, 2015

箴 23：26 - 我儿，要将你的心归我，你的眼目也要喜悦我的道路。

在我们的生活中，或许眼见有许多的道路可行，我们有很多的选择。但是，我们却往往做了错误的选择，导致我们走了许多的冤枉路。因为人很多时候觉得靠自己最实际，只有靠自己才是最可靠。因此，这自大的思想却让人陷入一个错误的决定，走错误的道路。经上说，我们要把所做的事交托耶和华，我们所谋的就必成立。（箴 16:3）意思就是无论我们做什么，总要把一切的事都交托给祂，当我们把眼目定睛在耶稣基督的身上，让祂走在前头，我们的道路肯定亨通，凡事顺利。在诗篇16:8-9说到，我将耶和华常摆在我面前，因祂在我右边，我便不至摇动。因此，我的心欢喜，我的灵快乐，我的肉身也要安然居住。当我们把神摆在我们面前，我们的生命肯定不致动摇，因为是神在看顾保守。

朋友们，要清楚知道，我们的好处不在神以外。（诗 16:2）离了祂，我们不能做什么。今天我们所拥有的，并不是我们自己所赚取的，而是神所赐的。若是神所赐的，那我们有什么可夸呢？要我们把所得的一切，归荣耀给神，因为若不是出于神，我们什么也不是。今天在主里面，我们是完全人，我们拥有神所赐的一切福分。我们有神的性情，我们有神的丰盛，我们有神恩膏，我们有神的一切！

你知道吗？当我们将心归于神，我们就是把自己交托给神。神说：当我们把重担交托给祂，祂必抚养我们，祂永不叫义人动摇。（诗 55:22）意思就是，当我们信靠祂，我们不必害怕这世上的任何东西能伤害我们，打倒我们。有神与我们同在，我们还怕谁呢？有祂作我们的保障，我们还惧谁呢？所以，单单仰望那用笑脸帮助我们的神，你必看见神的荣耀在你生命中！阿门！

祂必不背弃祂的约

Monday, January 19, 2015

诗篇89：34我必不背弃我的约，也不改变我口中所出的。
诗篇13：5但我倚靠祢的慈爱；我的心因祢的救恩快乐。

如果你保持正確的態度并信靠祂，上帝能带走你的傷害與痛苦。祂必給你加倍的和平、喜樂与健康。上帝希望你的人生是更好的，祂永遠不會失信于你。有些人會說：“你無法把炒蛋回複成生蛋；正如人生无法重来，有些错误，会是一生的遗憾。”話是沒錯，但上帝也跟你说：祂要做新事在你身上，祂要你忘记古时的事，所以你也不要再耿耿于怀；祂已经不再纪念你的罪愆，所以你也不要定自己的罪。因着耶稣的一次献祭，藉着祂的血，你得以坦然进入至圣所，藉着祂的身子，开了一条又新又活的路（希伯来书10：19-20）。阿们！

上帝要與你一起完成你在这世上的使命，祂是不會疲倦也不會半途而廢，更不會違背祂所立的約（诗篇89：34）。所以你要坚守所承认的指望，不要放弃勇敢的心。祂不要你只是“有點”快乐，祂要喜乐大大充满你；祂不要你只是“有些”丰盛，你不但自己要得福，且是可以祝福人；祂不要你身体只是“部份”得醫治，祂要你灵魂体都兴盛（约翰三书2）。祂要你的心是炽热的，要你的生命是充满活力的。

所以，我們要不斷訴說祂的良善與應許。無論何时何地，我們都要保守一颗心在神的爱与良善中，不停止诉说祂的慈爱。祂是万王之王，万主之主（启示录19：16），祂的能力无限，祂能在看來只有絕路的時候，爲我們開一條活路。
希伯来书10：19-20弟兄们，我们既因耶稣的血得以坦然进入至圣所，是藉着祂给我们开了一条又新又活的路，从幔子经过，这幔子就是祂的身体。

Follow The Good Shepherd

Sunday, January 18, 2015

Psalm 23:1- The Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing.

What a good shepherd does is to take care of his sheep. He will not
let anyone of his sheep goes astray or being caught by the wolves! Likewise,
Jesus is your good shepherd and He takes care of You. You are His responsibility
and do you believe that He will do whatever He promised?
He keeps His word and He is faithful, when He has promised that you're His
responsibility, He will do it! Today know that He will guide your steps and bring you
to the right place, at the right time and encounter the right blessings! All you need is to
follow Him, rest in His love and you shall lack nothing! You will not lack of blessings,
favor, opportunities, and health!

In His Grace

Saturday, January 17, 2015

1 peter 2:10- Once you were not a people, but now you are the people of God; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.

Always remember that what we have today is solely because of the finished
works of God, it is never by our obedience and achievement but only by what
Christ has done for us at the cross. How wonderful it is to know that though once
we were separated from God and we were not his people, we were there helpless
and living in a slavery life. But because of Jesus, He despised all the shame that he
faced, knowing that the greater joy is ahead, He chose to die for all of us, not only that
He brought us out and gave us the identity as a child of God! It is because of Jesus,
that now you've been transferred to the kingdom of God. You are now the child of God with
authority, and not only that you're now in His grace! We did not enjoy grace before but now
because of Jesus, we enjoy such amazing grace of Him!
In His grace and mercy, we found hope and life! Always remember, in His grace,
you have supply and you shall not be in want! :)

愿你们的心永远活着

Saturday, January 17, 2015

诗篇 22:26 谦卑的人必吃得饱足，寻求耶和华的人必赞美他。愿你们的心永远活着！

亲爱的朋友，你知道你一生的果效是由心发出吗？你在心里领受相信什么，在你生命中就彰显什么。
那么，你今天相信领受什么？今天在你心里面储存着什么？
你的心是否被环绕你的问题所充满着？
或是你的心被莫名的压力压郁着？
朋友，倘若今天你觉得心死很想放弃，现在是时候悔改，就是改变你的思想，让神的平安保守你的心。
与其让你的情绪和感觉来带领你，倒不如让神的话来牵引，更是让神的平安在你心里作主？

朋友，让我们成为那紧紧依靠神的人。不管情况有多难，无论它有多艰苦，不要失去盼望，当持续地相信那从未让我们绝望的神。在他没有难成的事。他能使不可能的变成可能。他能把不好的变成好。
所以，与其一直待在消极中埋怨，我们何不寻求神并赞美他？
朋友，你当记得，常常喜乐；不住的祷告；凡事谢恩，因为这是神在基督耶稣里向我们所定的旨意。
今天，我们可以藉着选择所信的来决定让自己的心活或是让心死。
愿你们的心永远活着因知道在基督里，你找着平安、喜乐、爱、供应，你一切所需并一切所要的！
带着坦然的信心和活泼的盼望来过你的人生因为你就是世上的光和盐，见证你神的美好。
在他里面，你是满有恩惠，深深被爱且大大被祝福的！
