以弗所书1：7我們藉这爱子的血得蒙救赎，过犯得以赦免，乃是照祂丰富的恩典。

某一天，一位警察拦下下一位婦女，因為她沒有依法給年幼的女兒使用兒童安全座椅。這位警察原本应该給這名婦女一張違反交通規則的罚单，但他却没有这样做，却是让這对母女到附近一家商店與他會面，自己掏腰包為她們買了安全座椅，因為那位母亲陷入经济困难，沒有能力為女兒购买安全座椅。

那位婦女原本該因違規而受罰，卻反而帶着礼物离去；其實，我们何尝不是如此呢？我們全都因違反了上帝的律法而应受责罚罰（传道书7：20），因着世人都犯了罪，亏缺了神的荣耀，如今却蒙神的恩典，因基督耶稣的救赎，就白白地称义（罗3：23-24）。

因為耶穌，我們從上帝那裡得了不配得的好处，本来我们的结局是死亡，那就是与上帝永远分离（罗马书6：23），但因着耶稣的救赎，我们这些远离神的人，如今却在基督耶稣里，靠着祂的血，已经得亲近了（以弗所书2：13）。我们是无罪释放了！哈利路亚，感谢主！

有人說恩典是「爱的动力」；如同那位警察一样，他让耶稣的爱，从他身上流露出去，使那位妇女在水深火热当中，感受那温暖的爱。对于於我們這些曾經接受過上帝恩典禮物的人來說，這實在是一個激励人心的典範。

親愛的天父，謝谢祢賜給我不配得的恩典。
祢已經赦免我的罪，
使我能夠藉着祢的爱子与祢和好，
父啊，帮助我因着祢的恩典永遠心存感恩，
不忘记祢的恩惠慈爱。

Jeremiah 31:3- “The Lord appeared to us in the past, saying: “I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with unfailing kindness.”
‭‭
In a severe earthquake, a mother used her whole body to protect her child while supporting all the weight of the building, just to keep her child safe. When the rescue team arrived, they found that the mother was in a bending position sustaining all the weights of the collapsed building, she was found dead, the child was safe and secure. Love can empower, and it can release tremendous power in life. In order to save us from sin, to redeem us and to give us new life, because of love, Jesus too sustaining all the weight of our mistakes, sins, curses on His body, just to ensure that we are saved!

‭‭
Start your everyday by being conscious of the presence of God in your life, it will totally change your perspectives in life!

2 Thessalonians 3:3- “But the Lord is faithful, and he will strengthen you and protect you from the evil one.”
‭‭
God is faithful, He is faithful in keeping His promises and to bring them to pass in your life. Faithful simply means that He is completely dependable! Therefore you are to know that the God that you believe in is a God that you can completely depend on Him! Yes, you may be facing with issues of life now, but depend on Him instead of your own; yes the report might not be good initially but He is completely dependable! When you can depend on Him, guess what? Nothing is too great that He cannot solve for you.

Today no matter where I am, I believe that God is faithful, if He can bring me through that time, He will deliver me too this time! Strengthen me with your love Jesus, I know I'm free from all the evil one which inclusive of lack, sickness and fear. When I am in your love, nothing can be against me. In Jesus name, amen.

诗篇66：12说“我们经过水火，你却使我们到丰富之地。”

为什么会发生这种事情？”“为什么那么的不公平？”“为什么会这样？”很多时候，我们都带着许许多多的“为什么”来过生活。也许世界给你的重担是那么的沉重；但，我们天上的父却愿意成为你我的解脱。 如今，虽然世界的局势是那么的紧张，我们都不晓得恶兆何时会临到我们身上。但，耶稣却应许说：世界上虽然有苦难，但我已经胜过这个世界了（约翰福音16：33）。耶稣要告诉你，祂的十字架就是你的解脱，是你的帮助。在无路可走时，不要忘记祂是你的依靠。

生命中曾有多少的水火，有多少的水深火热，有多少的不知所措，正缠绕着你。。虽然我们经过不公平，但耶稣要带领我们到祝福的境界；虽然我们经过病痛，但耶稣要给我们健康；虽然我们经过贫穷，但耶稣要领我们到丰盛之地。。。因为当祂来的时候，祂要赐给我们的乃是更丰盛的生命（约翰10：10）！

不要再看水有多深，还是火有多猛，因我们行事为人是凭着信心，不是凭着眼见（林后5：7）。耶稣应许你有的是丰盛、祝福、自由、健康，喜乐，而你，将要到达这丰盛之地。记得，十字架就是你的能力，你得依靠。阿门！

John 15:5- ““I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.”
‭‭
If an apple tree's branch is to grow, it has to be connected to an apple tree. Likewise, we are wonderfully and fearfully made by the creator of Heaven and the earth, God is our manufacturer and source; so if we are to grow and bear fruits, we too need to be connected to the right source! Therefore, if you will realize that all the more you connect to your emotion, you will tend to be more emotional; if you are connected to the humans' words around you, you will all the more feeling insecure; all these wrong sources that you connect to and rely on will never help you grow and bear fruits, but instead you will see you remain the same each day. But good news is here! Jesus said He is the vine and we are the branches, only He is the one true source that we are to keep ourselves connected each day; from moment to moment, be reminded on His love and what He says about you, as you keep connecting with Him, fruits will grow effortlessly! With Him, you can do all things! :)

Beloved, do you know what grace is?
Grace is not a subject, grace is not a doctrine, grace is a person-JESUS.
Grace reveals who God is. Grace is the person who was nailed to the cross for your redemption. Grace is the eternal life for us paid for by the blood-stained sacrifice at Calvary.
Grace and truth came through the Son (John1:17). Under grace, God provides righteousness as a gift. (Rom3:24)
Grace imparts hope to the hopeless and help to those who are helpless.

So, friend, when you are under grace-the unmerited favor of God, you are given the strength and power to rise above your challenges!
Jesus is your solution, He is your answer, He is you hope, joy, peace and security. When you have Jesus, you have everything.
Whatever adversity, challenge or circumstance you may be faced with today, your answer is found in the person of Jesus, and that's why we need the word of God-which is Jesus (John1:1).
It's time for us to catch the revelation of grace, when we tap into, we are moving from defeat to victory and from breakdowns into breakthroughs!

NOW is the time to encounter Jesus, friend. Stop struggling and leaning on ourselves, but to start eyeing on Jesus and believe what He has done at the cross 2015 years ago for you and me.
Hallelujah! When we step into His unfailing love, that is when we shall see transformation from the inside out.
It is all by the grace of God! (Heb4:16 & Rom11:6)

约翰福音14：6 耶稣说：我就是道路、真理、生命。若不藉着我，没有人能到父那里去。

人常常哀叹说：“我走投无路了！我真是事事碰着黑，倒霉透了。。。”。在你自己的生命里面，你面临的也是如此的情况呢？破碎家庭看似已经无法修复了？健康已经走到尽头了？甚至觉得经济的紧逼已经让你无法前进了？但今天神跟你说，祂要在你生命的旷野开道路，在你生命的沙漠开江河（以赛亚书43：19）。

耶稣，祂成为了你走投无路时候的出路。祂说：“我就是道路（约翰福音14：6）”。 你的人生中或许寻觅过无数的路径，但总是让你失望；耶稣，祂心甘情愿的被钉死在十字架上，救赎你脱离罪的捆绑，成为你在贫乏，困境，病痛，绝望中一条又新又活的路（希伯来书10：20）。祂供应你一切所需，医治你的病痛，解救你脱离水火之中，引领你到平安的境地。这就是祂对你的心意。祂在十字架上所成就的一切，叫你与神和好（罗马书5：10）。

或许你会问究竟在天父那里有什么呢？

天父那里有一切的丰盛，和一切的供应，你渴望的喜乐、平安、公义、自由、健康、能力、恩典，恩惠，慈爱等都属于你！今天世人都拚力的赚取一切所想要的，天父祂是何等的明白你的感受！祂不愿见你寻寻觅觅，到处碰钉子，以至遍体鳞伤，所以祂赐下独生爱子给你，使你的人生有那美好的盼望。耶稣的愿意成就了你我的生命。今天，你只管享受祂所为你献上的，领受祂所为你预备的！唯有耶稣基督才是你生命中最美好的道路。阿门！

Psalm 107:14- “He brought them out of darkness, the utter darkness, and broke away their chains.”
‭‭
Do you know that you got a prison break? And of course, it is done by Jesus! He has set you free at the cross by His finished work! When you look at yourself, know that you're no longer in bondages, but freedom! My friend, You may be imprisoned by fears, guilt and even your past; you may be feeling ashamed of your past mistakes, but know that Jesus has broken the chains of your fear, guilt and your past, and He has brought you out from the utter darkness! You're no longer imprisoned in darkness, but now you're grounded in His grace and love! Guess what? When you're no longer in darkness, it simply means you're in the light of God now, when you're grounded in His grace and love, you can be assured that you are a winner in life! More than that, the word of God has promised you that you are more than a conqueror! So, start to Believe that your life is changing for the better, good days are ahead! Keep your mind and thoughts in line with what He has promised you, and enjoy your prison free life! You're no longer a slave but a child, you're the head and not the tail, you're in freedom and not bondage, and you are free from darkness but living in the light of God now!
