Daily Devotion 每日灵修

Luke18:1 Then Jesus told His disciples a parable to show them that they should always pray and not give up.
路加福音 18:1 耶稣设一个比喻，是要人常常祷告，不可灰心。

Dear friend, do you know why do we pray? We pray not because it is a religion activity, but we pray because we are building the relationship with the Father, just like how we talk to each others to know more about the others. We pray not because we are commanded to pray but we pray because it is part of our life. We pray not because we are begging for something but we pray simply because we know we cannot yet God can. Friend, prayer is all about giving thanks and it is time for us to take up our authority to proclaim and speak life over our situations! Whatever circumstances we are in right now, do not give up but to pray continually for we shall surely see things happen in our favor because the prayer of a righteous man-you and I (as we are justified by faith through grace in Christ) is powerful and effective! So, we are to pray, believe and receive from the Almighty God in whom we trust!

亲爱的朋友，你知道为什么我们祷告吗？我们祷告并不是因为它是一个宗教仪式，而我们祷告是为跟天父建立那关系，就好像我们与人沟通是为更加认识彼此。我们祷告不是因为我们被命令一定要祷告，但我们祷告因为它是我们生活中的一部分。我们祷告并非为了祈求某样事情，而我们祷告因为我们知道我们不能而耶稣祂能。朋友，祷告是关乎感恩并且拿起权柄宣告并对我们的问题说话！不管我们现在处于怎样的环境中，不要放弃，继续不住地祷告，我们肯定看见好事发生，因为义人-我和你（是在基督里因信称义的）的祷告是大有能力且有功效的！所以，我们要祷告，相信并从我们所信靠那全能的主那里领受！

Hebrews 9:15 For this reason Christ is the mediator of a new covenant, that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance-now he has died as a ransom to set them free from the sins committed under the first covenant.
希伯来书 9:15 为此他作了新约的中保，既然受死赎了人在前约之时所犯的罪过，便叫蒙召之人得着所应许永远的产业。

Do you what is covenant? It is an unbreakable promise. Covenant is more than agreement only for agreement can be temporary but the covenant is everlasting one. Do you know we found covenant in the bible? The first covenant God has made with man is happened in Genesis whereby God has set a covenant with Noah and God has set the rainbow as the sign of the covenant (Genesis 9). Besides that, God has given us another better covenant which is His only beloved Son-Jesus Christ! For God so loved the world that he gave his one as only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life (John3:16). From here we can see and know that Jesus has given us His own life and took our place so that we are blessed in Him today.
Jesus has been crucified 2019 years ago so that by the shedding of his blood, our sins can be forgiven and we can be new creation in Him (John1:29; Hebrews 9:22; Romans 8:1; 2Corinthians 5:17)! Jesus has been nailed on the cross just to redeem you and me from the curse of the law and made us the righteous and blessed one in Him. (1Peter 2:24) Jesus has taken away our identity of sinner and make us have the right standing as the children of god (John1:12; Galatians 3:26). Jesus has conquered our enemies including sicknesses, worries, and even death so that today you and I can be more than conquerors in him and make the enemies as our footstool! (Romans 8:37) This great covenant has been made by Jesus Christ himself. So now we can come boldly to the throne of grace and be excited with grateful heart for Christ Jesus has done it all! This is an unchanged and unbreakable covenant. Therefore, fear not and do not doubt, for The Lord our god is faithful! He is the same yesterday, today and forever! Because of this covenant, we are truly blessed!

你知道什么是约定吗？它是一个不能破碎的应许。约定是超越条约的因为条约是暂时的，而约定却是永远的。你知道我们能在圣经中找到约定吗？神与人作的第一个约定就是就发生在创世纪，上帝与挪亚立下约定并且以彩虹为证(创世记9)。除此之外，神给了我们一个更美好的约定就是祂的独生爱子 - 耶稣基督！神爱世人，甚至将祂的独生子赐给他们，叫一切信祂的，不至灭亡，反得永生(约翰福音3:16)。从这里我们可以看见并且知道耶稣为我们舍下祂的生命，并且代替了我们的地位，好叫我们今天在祂里面是蒙福的。
耶稣在2019年前为我们被钉死，好叫因着祂所流出的宝血，使我们的罪得以赦免，并且使我们成为新造的人(约翰福音1:29; 希伯来书9:22; 罗马书8:1; 哥林多后书5:17)！耶稣被钉在十架上为了救赎你和我脱离律法的咒诅，并且使我们在里面得称为义(彼得前书2:24)。耶稣拿去代替我们罪人的身份且使我们在神面前有对的站立得称为神的儿女(约翰福音1:12; 加拉太书3:26)。耶稣已经战胜我们的仇敌包括疾病、忧虑甚至死亡，好叫你和我今天能在祂的爱得胜有余且使仇敌成为我们生命中的脚凳！(罗马书8:37) 这美好的约定是耶稣自己所成立的。所以现在我们得以坦然地来到神施恩的宝座前欢欢喜喜，兴奋且感恩耶稣基督所成就的一切！这是一个不能改变和破碎的约定。因此，不要害怕，不要怀疑，因为我们所信的神是信实的！祂是昨日、今日、一直到永远都是一样的！因着这约定，我们是深受祝福的！

Job 22:21 Submit to God and be at peace with him; in this way prosperity will come to you.
约伯记 22：21 你要认识神，就得平安；福气也必临到你。
‭‭

God wants a relationship with you, intimately! Submission does not come by force, it flows out of love. Hence, submitting and agreeing with God does not require your special effort, or your will power to carry it on; rather, it just happens when you fall in love with Jesus! Instead of looking on what you should achieve, the moment when you look at what He has achieved for you, how much that He loves you, submission births out! Therefore, as you get to know Him through His words and submit to what He says, simply by believing that when the Word says so, it settles it; you shall be at peace!! Peace not of the world but peace that comes from Jesus! Furthermore, you shall see when you seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, all that you need will be added and come to you! ‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬Amen!‬‬

上帝要与你建立亲密的关系！你渴望认识神是因为爱在你心里涌流，你是甘心乐意的要来更认识祂。因此，顺服与归向神不需要你特别的努力，或是靠着你的意志力来执行；相反的，当你爱上耶稣，这自然而然就发生了！与其看向你可以得着什么，何不看祂已经为你做了什么，当你晓得祂多么爱你，你自然就更渴望来认识祂了！所以，当你藉着祂的话来认识祂，并顺从祂的话，单单的相信，就是如此；你有平安，不是从世界而来的平安，而是从耶稣而来的平安。此外，当你先求祂的国和祂的义，你所需要的一切都必加给你！阿门！

John 1:38 Turning around, Jesus saw them following and asked,” What do you want?” They said, “Rabbi” (which means Teacher), “where are you staying?”
约翰福音 1:38 耶稣转过身来，看见他们跟着，就问他们说：你们要什么？他们说，拉比，在哪里住？（拉比翻出来，就是夫子）

亲爱的朋友，你可否知道你所信的神-耶稣，是一位充满着爱的吗？祂在乎一切关乎你的事！祂在意你所在意的！祂照顾你的一切需要。当你听见祂并选择跟随祂，与其要你拼命地追着祂，祂永远是那一位转过身来关心你的。所以你今天需要什么，神所爱的？也许你需要经济突破；或许是健康的身体；也许你说你需要好的关系；或许你需要一份工作来生存；又或者你有好多东西想要。。。但你有发现到当耶稣问那两个门徒，当他们要什么的时候，他们怎么回答的吗？他们只问耶稣“在哪里住？”，那是因为他们知道当他们和耶稣同在一处的时候，他们就拥有他们所需和所要的一切了！当你拥有耶稣，你就拥有生命！当你拥有耶稣，你就拥有希望！当你拥有耶稣，你就拥有财富和健康！当你拥有耶稣，你就被安置在高处！当你拥有耶稣，你就拥有一切你所需所要的！所以，选择呆在神的同在里，因为祂就是你的全部。记得，祂就是神的话。所以，你花多少时间在神的话里就是花多少时间和神在一起。所以让我们天天与祂同住，并且享受一切祂为我们所成就的吧！祂是信实的，必做成祂所应许的一切！相信且凭着恩典领受吧！

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.

Isaiah 43:1 But now, this is what the Lord says— he who created you, Jacob, he who formed you, Israel: “Do not fear, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine.
以赛亚书 43:1 雅各啊，创造你的耶和华，以色列啊，造成你的那位，现在要如此说：你不要害怕，因为我救赎了你。我曾提你的名召你，你是属我的。
‭‭

When something belongs to you, it simply means that you have the full responsibility over it. Besides that, no one can be able to take what belongs to you from you, for it bears your name! Likewise, when we are in Christ, we belong to the Father in Heaven who loves us so much and deeply, we carry the name of His and guess what, He has the full responsibility in taking care of you! So, when you bear the name of God, the name of the Almighty, the name of the All Possible, nothing shall be able to stand against you when you know truly what is your identity! My dear friends, God solely wants to tell you that "you're mine" today, how sweet! He sees you precious and one and only, and He loves you by giving you Jesus and all that He has! Therefore in all the days of your life, you can expect good things to happen, you can enjoy life and you shall find hope in all challenges you face! ‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬‬

當某样东西是屬於你的，意表着你對它負有全部的責任。并且，沒有人能夠從你身上拿走屬於你的東西，因為它刻着你的名字！同樣，當我們在基督裡，我們屬於那位深愛我們的天父，我們身上刻着祂的名，所以祂有責任来照顾我们！所以，當你带着父全能者的名字，當你晓得你真正的身份时，沒有什麼能够来抵挡你！親愛的朋友，上帝要告訴你，今天“你是属我的”，这是多么的甜蜜！祂看你为至宝，那么的独一无二，祂愛你，給了你祂的独生爱子耶穌，并祂一切所有的都是你的！所以，在你的生命中，你可以期待好事情的發生，你得以享受生命，在你所面临的挑戰中，你都有盼望！

2Corinthians 4:13 It is written: "I believed; therefore I have spoken." With that same spirit of faith we also believe and therefore speak.
哥林多后书 4:13 但我们既有信心，正如经上记着说：“我因信，所以如此说话。”我们也信，所以也说话。

Dear friend, do you know that you are given authority to speak? Whatever you speak, it shall becomes real in your life. Whatever you believe and proclaim, it is yours. So, what have you spoken today? What are you speaking right now? Are you keep on saying how big your problem is? Or you are saying how big your God is? Though you might be in lack right now, but take heart and be cheerful, for the Lord your God is your unlimited supplies. Speak prosperity instead of poverty and lacking. Although right now in your body you are not feeling well, but dear friend, start to speak the words of God and proclaim His healing over you and receive the complete wholeness in your body. Even though you may be now facing hardship and big mountain that is blocking your way, but take heart, take up the authority God has given to you by believing in His unfailing promises that nothing is too hard for God and all things are possible for those who believes.
Start to speak life into your situation. Remember, you are what you say. You receive what your perceive. So instead of saying the words what couldn't help you, why not you change the channel and start to speak and proclaim the good and powerful words God has for you. Surely, when you start practicing to speak the powerful words of God, that is when you see things change in your favor, bad turn to be good and impossible becomes possible. Amen!

亲爱的朋友，你可否知道你拥有说话的权柄和能力？不论你说什么，它要在你生命中成为真实。凡你所相信并宣告的，它就是你的。所以，你今天说了什么？ 你现在又正在说什么？你是否一直在说你的问题有多大？还是你选择说你的神有多么的大？纵然你现在是缺乏的，但你可以放心并要喜乐，因为你的神是你不断的供应。宣告富足而不是缺乏和贫穷。虽然你现在身体不舒服，但亲爱的朋友，开始说神的话并且宣告祂的医治在你身上，开始领受那完全的医治在你身上。纵然你现在正面对着艰难和拦阻你前进的大山，你仍然可以放心，拿起神所给你的权柄，相信祂那不落空的应许-在神没有难成的事，并且在信的人凡事都能。
开始对你的环境宣告生命。记得，你就是你所说的。你领受你所信的。所以，与其说不能给与你任何帮助的话，为何不转换频道开始说和宣告神所给你那既好又有能力的话呢？肯定的，当你开始操练说神那大有能力的话时，那就是你看见事情好转，不好的变成好，不可能的都变成可能的时候。阿门！

Psalms 68:19 Praise be to the Lord, to God our Savior, who daily bears our burdens.
诗篇 68:19 天天背负我们重担的主，就是拯救我们的神，是应当称颂的。

Hallelujah! Dear friend, do you know that you can actually live your life without worry and fear? Though there are a lots of troubles and problems in this world while we are living our daily life, but thanks be to God, for the Lord our God has daily bears our burdens and even loads us with benefits. Jesus has led us into triumphal and made us a victor in life. Therefore, no matter what kind of situation you may be in, do remember that you are more than conquerors for Jesus has won the victory! When you are sick, trust in the Lord who daily bears your burdens and heals your sick; When you are weak, trust in the Lord who daily bears your burdens and makes you strong; When you are lacking, trust in the Lord who daily bears your burdens and provides you according to His glorious riches; When you are worry, trust in the Lord who daily bears your burdens and cast all your anxieties to Him who cares for you! So, praise God when you are sick; Praise God when you are weak; Praise God when you are lacking; Praise God when you are worry, for in Him and through Him, you can now reign in life and enjoy the life He has given to you to the fullest! Praise the Lord!

哈利路亚！亲爱的朋友，你知道其实你可以无忧虑无惧怕地生活吗？纵然当我们活在这世上是难免会遇到许多挑战和难题，但是感谢神，因为我们的主天天背负我们的重担，甚至给我们所有的好处。耶稣已带领我们进入得胜，使我们成为胜利者在我们的生命中。因此，不管你处于什么样的状况，当记得你是得胜有余的，因为耶稣已为你取得了永远的胜利！当你生病时，信靠那天天背负你重担并且医治你的主；当你软弱的时候，信靠那天天背负你重担，并且使你刚强你的主；当你缺乏的时候，信靠那天天背负你重担，并且照着他荣耀丰富供应你的主；当你忧虑的时候，信靠那天天背负你重担，并且叫你把一切忧虑卸给祂的主，因为祂顾念你！所以，生病的时候，赞美主；软弱的时候，赞美主；缺乏的时候，赞美主；忧虑的时候，赞美主！因为在祂里面并且藉着祂，你现在得以在生命中掌权并且可以尽情地享受祂赐给你那丰盛的生命！赞美主！

Psalms 121:1-2 I lift up my eyes to the hills-where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord. The Maker of heaven and earth.
诗篇 121:1-2 我要向山举目，我的帮助从何而来？我的帮助从造天地的耶和华而来。

Dear friend, do you know what is the hills that the psalmist referring to? It is the hill whereby Jesus was been crucified! So, we are to be reminded all the times that the help we needed each day each moment is actually been done at the cross 2019 years ago! Is Jesus who protects us by not letting our foot slip, He who watches over us will not slumber. Because of Jesus' sacrifice and protection, nothing can harm us. Is He who keeps us from all harms and watches over our life. He is the God who watches over our coming and going both now and forevermore! Is Him, who gives us healthy body, sound mind and prosperous in everything we do. In Him, we are truly blessed! Because of Him, we are deeply loved, highly favored, and greatly blessed! Hallelujah!

亲爱的朋友，你知道诗人所指的山是什么吗？那山正是耶稣被钉死的那一座山！所以，我们要常常被提醒我们每一天每一时所需要的帮助早已在2019年前成就在十字架上了！是耶稣保护我们使我们的脚不摇动，祂是那位保护我们且不打盹的。因为耶稣的献上和保护，没有什么能伤害我们。是祂保护我们免受一切灾害并且保护我们的性命。祂就是那一位出入都保护我们的神，从今时直到永远！是祂，给予我们健康的身体，清晰的思想，还有使我们所作的尽都顺利。在祂里面，我们真是蒙福啊！因为祂，我们是深深被爱，蒙受恩宠，且大被祝福的！哈利路亚！
