Daily Devotion 每日灵修

诗 37:4-5 - 又要以耶和华为乐，祂就将你心里所求的赐给你。当将你的事交托耶和华，并倚靠祂，祂就必成全。

每天一翻开报纸，总有许许多多的新闻映在眼前，有好消息，当然也有坏消息。是的，就如我们每天的生活，有起有落，有悲有喜，充满着各样的情绪。但是，我们却要谨守，不要让这些负面的情绪来决定我们的一天。纵然我们还活在这世上，但是我们不属这世界，我们只是客旅，是寄居的，因此我们不要让这情绪来牵引我们。其实，我们要过怎样的一天，只在乎我们自己的选择。若我们要过得精彩，那么我们就要作对的选择，反之，我们的一天就会被诅丧、担忧、愤怒或种种的负面情绪给影响。

朋友们，每天一早，当我们一睁开眼睛，第一件事就是把我们的一天交托给神。因为唯有当我们心甘情愿的交托，并依靠祂，祂就把我们所愿的赐给我们，给我们成全我们所要的。耶稣基督是我们的葡萄树，我们是祂的枝子，离了祂，我们什么都不能，所以我们的每一天都要连接于祂，与祂亲近。当我们亲近祂，祂就必与我们亲近，凡我们所愿意的，祈求就给我们成就。你知道吗？当你坚定地依靠祂，向我们的主祈求祷告的时候，你所信的必要归给你，你所愿的必得以满足。因为祂是信实的神，祂所应许的必要成就。

所以，我们每天都要以耶和华为乐，要以神为中心，把祂放成我们的指引，带领我们每天的道路，好使我们的脚步不偏差，是走在神的旨意里的。阿门！

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

Who are you following today? Who is the one shepherding you today? Know that the Word of God says that Jesus is the good shepherd, and in other hand means there must be some bad shepherd! Likewise, as you check what you have been thinking lately, whether you are emotionally affected by the circumstances, you will realize that most of the time we tend to follow the wrong shepherd. We follow our feelings, we follow people's opinion, we follow what we perceive and see, we follow and counting on how great is the issues of life! Therefore, when you follow the wrong shepherd, when you seek after all these issues, it does not benefit you but instead it leads you into wrong thinking and deeper emotional trauma. But when you follow Jesus, seeing Him as your shepherd, follow His Word and footsteps, you will realize that Jesus is constant! He is yesterday, today and forever the same! He loves you and He means it! He says He will provide and He means it! He says He is with you and He means it! Therefore as you follow the right and good shepherd, it leads you to right thinking and eventually it leads you to right believing. See Jesus as your shepherd today, and know that you lack nothing!!

Say this prayer today: "Jesus, thank you for being a good shepherd who watches over me, protects me when I'm helpless and provides me when I'm in lack. When I've you as my Shepherd, I fear no evil and I worry not, for I believe I'll always see your goodness, mercy, favor and grace all of my life. Amen!"

帖前 5:5 - 你们都是光明之子，都是白昼之子；我们不是属黑夜的，也不是属幽暗的。

亲爱的弟兄姐妹们，当我们是属基督的，我们就是光明之子。光明之子是走在光明中，所作的也是光明的。而光明所结的果子就是一切良善、公义、诚实。在我们的生命中，是充满着神的恩典，是结出神丰盛的果子。你知道吗？当我们是白昼之子，我们就不属于黑暗，更不属于这恶者掌权的幽暗世界。在这世上，我们只是客旅，是寄居的，我们不属于这世界，正如我们的父，耶稣基督一样。因此，在这世上的一切都不是属于我们的，这一切所见的只是暂时的。就好比我们到某个国家去旅游，我们进入那个国家，我们必须跟从他们的制度，他们的文化，但是，那个国家却不是我们所属的地方，我们只是暂时在那里旅游，我们终究要回到属于我们的地方。正如我们不属这世界，我们终究要回到我们真正的家，就是我们的父所为我们预备的地方。

所以，在这世上的病痛不是属于我们的，只有健康是属于我们的，因为病痛不是从我们光明的父那里来的；这世上的缺乏不是属于我们的，只有富足才是属于我们的，因为我们的父神是使人富足的神；这世上的失败不属于我们，我们是成功之子，因为我们的耶稣基督是得胜者，而我们是得胜有余的；这世上的嫉妒不是属于我们的，因为我们的父赐给我们一条新命令，就是要彼此相爱。朋友们，要清楚知道，由于这世界仍在恶者的掌权之下，因此这世界是充满苦难，诱惑，不良的影响，以及一切幽暗的事。纵然如此，但是我们的父，耶稣基督却告诉我们，我们可以放心，因为祂已胜了这世界，而我们也可以藉着祂在这世上过着得胜有余的生命，因为我们是属祂的，是属于光明的。

朋友们，让我们无时无刻的告诉自己，我们是被爱的，我们属于耶稣基督的，我们是祂的至宝，是祂所顾念的。因此，我们的生命所结出的果子是上好的果子，是荣耀父的果子，让我们时常感恩，把一切的荣耀都归给父神。阿门！

Psalm 91:14- ““Because he loves me,” says the Lord, “I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name.”
‭‭
Saving you is Jesus' job description. He came as a Savior, not a condemner. Many would have thought that the coming of Jesus is to condemn and judge, but if He came to condemn, the bible will not tell us that a Savior was sent! Therefore, when a savior was sent to us, definitely He comes to save and that's why He is called as a Savior! Just like because you produce something and therefore you're called as a producer! When Jesus came to save, you have to know that He is all powerful and there's nothing that is too hard for Him! My friends, Whatever situation that you're in now, trust that He is always on the rescue! Let Him protects you in His everlasting arms, and you only need to be secure in His love.

Make this your prayer today: Father in Heaven, I thank you that I am always secure in your everlasting arms and love. Your love, your fullness of grace and your mercy in my life enable me to move on today with boldness and courage. Thank you for rescuing me from this situation, when I acknowledge you instead of acknowledging the problems, I know I can soar above the storms with you. Thank you Father, in the name of Jesus, amen.

约 6:20 - 耶稣对他们说：“是我，不要怕！”

朋友们，在你的生命中，有什么是让你觉得害怕的？是外在的事物？是内心的恐惧？是外来的因素？还是其他的突发事件？有些人会因为某些动物而感到害怕；有些人会因为一个人的时候而感觉害怕；有些人会因为突然察觉的病痛而感觉害怕；有些人会因为陌生的环境而感到害怕；但无论是什么事，都不能隔绝耶稣基督对你的爱。

你知道吗？耶稣基督赐给我们的是刚强壮胆的心，是无论面对什么问题，都能够坦然无惧勇往直前的。人若在患难之日胆怯，你的力量就微小。（箴 24:10）所以我们的主不愿看见祂的孩子们是败在胆怯下，而是在那之上的。祂一直都在对祂所爱的孩子们说：是我，不要怕！无论在什么情况中，祂都知道我们的需要，祂知道我们内心的想法，祂知道我们的恐惧，但是，祂却是应许我们，对我们不离不弃的。祂是无时无刻都在我们身边，作我们随时的帮助和供应。当健康出现问题时，祂说：不要怕，我是你的医治；当经济出现状况，祂说：不要怕，我是你的供应；当事业遇到瓶颈时，祂说：不要怕，我是你的指引；当关系出现裂痕时，祂说：不要怕，我是你的修复。当我们需要什么的时候，祂就是那一切的源头。

亲爱的弟兄姐妹们，当耶稣基督告诉你，“不要怕，是我” 的时候，你真的能够全心全意的来信靠祂吗？当祂告诉你，祂就是一切的源头，你是否真的把祂视为你一切所需要的源头呢？若相信，事情就要照着所信的成就了！阿门！

Matthew 17:7 - But Jesus came and touched them. "Get up," he said. "Don't be afraid."

Many of times, the greatest enemy that you can face is never the challenges or the mountains around you, but rather, you are your greatest enemy. Nothing can defeat you in life, unless you allow it yourself. Many of times, we soak ourselves in the waves of our challenges, rewinding and thinking about how difficult it is, what a failure that we are, how impossible to be delivered from such issues of life, and we will never see hope again. Our thoughts defeat us easily if we do not take them captive, and bring them back to the thought and mind of Christ. To think what God thinks, to speak what God speaks is not a set of rules, but rather it helps you to fix your eyes and attention on God, when you get your thoughts align back to the Word of God, you will see everything shall dissolve! So get up from the negative thoughts now, do not be afraid, for Jesus is still in control!

Proverbs 15:30 - Light in a messenger's eyes brings joy to the heart, and good news gives health to the bones.

The gospel of God is a good message concerning the finished work that Jesus has done for us. Therefore, whenever the gospel is being proclaimed, the good news is being proclaimed, the finished work of Jesus is being proclaimed! You can be sure that Jesus is not judgmental, that He came to find fault on you and to condemn you whenever you fail. He came to proclaim good news to mankind, therefore, you can find that no matter where He is in the bible, He brought good news to the people around Him who believed in His message! The lame has walked, the blind has seen, the issue of blood stopped, the weak strengthened, the dead came alive, the sick has been healed, the one who faced lack received abundance! That is what Jesus came to bring to you!
The good news has been proclaimed, can you believe it? The Word of God says that a good news bring health to the body, and guess what? The good news is, you are forgiven, you are His beloved, you are in great abundance, you are the head and not the tail, you are the darling in His heart! Be attentive to the Words of God, and you will find your health restore!

弗 6:7 - 甘心事奉，好像服事主，不像服事人。

每一个基督徒，无论在哪一个岗位上服事神，或多或少都会面对大大小小的挑战。难免的，也会经历许多被人批评论断，被人指指点点的难处。其实，在神的大家庭里，每一个人都来自不同的背景，有不同的喜好，有不同的性格等等。但是因着神的恩典，大家能够聚集在主的大家庭里，然而，这一切不是凑巧，不是偶然，乃是出于神的旨意。因此，在我们服事的过程中，难免会面对各种各样的批评，或是责骂。但这一切都不能拦阻我们来服事主，因为我们知道我们服事的不是人。

朋友们，我们所作的一切，我们的父神是在暗中察看，并且祂报应。祂纪念我们我们所做的，并且在我们的人生旅途中给予我们随时的帮助和指引。神祂并非不公义，竟忘记我们所做的工和我们为祂名所显的爱心，然而这一切神都纪念，并且给我们的赏赐是大的。你知道吗？当我们因着耶稣基督的名被辱骂的时候，我们是有福的，因为这一切的辱骂都落在基督的身上，并且神荣耀的灵常住在我们身上（罗 15:3，彼前 4:14）；当我们因着耶稣的名被人恨恶的时候，我们是有福的，因为在世人恨我们以先，他们已经先恨基督了。（约 15:18）

好好地想想，我们服事，是要得人的心呢？还是要得神的心呢？我们岂是讨人的喜欢吗？若仍旧讨人的喜欢，我们就不是基督的仆人了。（加 1:10）所以，我们大可不必把人的话，人的闲言闲语放在心上，要记得，人的话不能把我们怎么样，也不能断定我们在神面前的位置，我们唯一要讨欢心的，就是要讨神的欢心。因为唯有神是对我们不离不弃，而且是爱我们到底，是知道永远的。在这世上没有什么能够把我们与神的爱隔离，也没有什么能拦阻祂爱我们。因此，让我们全心全意的来侍奉主，单单回应祂对我们的爱。阿门！

Proverbs 23:18 - There is surely a future hope for you, and your hope will not be cut off.

In Christ, you can find hope. Hope is not wishes, that something you hope one day it will happen to you.
But the bible hope that we have is a confident expectation of good that good things will definitely happen in our journey ahead!
God is a God of hope, so whenever you come to Him, you can be assured that your future is in a good hand; how much more, it is in your Heavenly Father's hand!
There will be surely a future hope for you, when God said surely, He means what He said! Therefore, when God says you can be sure, it means that no matter
what is before your eyes right now, whatever challenges that it may be, you can be glad and rejoice because the pathway of the righteous is even brighter!
Regardless what makes you disappointed now, remember that this is never the ending yet. God can turn things around for you, there is surely a great hope
ahead! When God is with you, your hope can never be cut off! When the enemies come to you in one way, they shall flee in seven ways! Lift up your head and move on,
if God has brought you through previously, what's more this time?
