禱告，是參加聖靈親自預備的盛宴：

你在上帝的殿中要吃屬靈嗎哪，要喝喜樂之泉，

並且有主耶穌與你一同座席，你將得見祂榮光，你全人也明亮發光。

「他們必因你殿裡的肥甘得以飽足；你也必叫他們喝你樂河的水。因為，在你那裡有生命的源頭；在你的光中，我們必得見光。」（詩篇36:8-9）

Dear child,

I know the pain you have in your heart.

I have been there, where it is shadowed by the darkness of hopelessness.

But would you trust Me and let Me calm down the waves and storms in your life?

When you don’t know what to pray,

Just come to Me with a needy heart.

Tell Me that you surrender all the situations to Me.

Ask Me to give you endurance to press on.

I will take over and make everything beautiful in its own time.

When you look back on the journey, you will know I am Sovereign.

“Yet God has made everything beautiful for its own time. He has planted eternity in the human heart, but even so, people cannot see the whole scope of God’s work from beginning to end.” (Ecclesiastes 3:11, NLT)

主耶穌稱我為朋友，

祂樂意訴說祂心意。

我不需杞人憂天，

因祂掌權做王。

我不需恐懼害怕，

因祂在我前頭爭戰。

我不需為明天憂慮，

因祂信實供應。

我不需孤單憂鬱，

因祂慈愛陪伴。

「以後我不再稱你們為僕人，因僕人不知道主人所做的事。我乃稱你們為朋友；因我從我 父所聽見的，已經都告訴你們了。」（約翰福音15:15）

When your life is in trial, God is preparing you for a reward in heaven.

When your faith passes this promotion test, you will know the joy of victory.

Even the bruises caused by the fight will become a glorious medal. 

Therefore, lift up your heart; go down on your knees. 

When God doesn’t make sense, don’t quit. 

Come to Jesus Christ. Ask and cry. Wait and listen. 

He will lovingly teach you His way, higher than yours and better than yours.

“Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.” (James 1:2-4 ESV)

撒旦叫你往東，你當耳邊風。

撒旦罵你，你懶得理。

撒旦騙你，你用真理頂回去。

撒旦攔阻你做神善工，你奉主耶穌的名叫牠退後。

撒旦利誘你，你想著主耶穌為你存留在天上的永恆獎賞。

撒旦恐嚇你，你提醒牠將來要下到地獄火湖的結局。

「弟兄勝過牠，是因羔羊的血和自己所見證的道，他們雖至於死也不愛惜性命。」（啟示錄12:11）

Dear saints,

You are generous to give your time in worshiping God and praying for others. You will prosper in your spirit; you shall be refreshed as you refresh others.

“A generous person will prosper; whoever refreshes others will be refreshed.” (Proverbs 11:25)

想要明白上帝的旨意，先從順服祂心意開始。

祂對你的心意都寫在聖經裡。

當你去遵行時，你靈就警醒聽見祂對你個人的旨意，

因為信實的祂是不誤事、不誤時的主。

「人若願意遵行神的旨意，就會知道這教訓是出於神，還是我憑著自己的意思說的。」（約翰福音7:17）

「求你指教我遵行你的旨意，因你是我的神。你的靈本為善；求你引我到平坦之地。」（詩篇143:10）

Are you seeing no light of the future but feel so scared in the darkness of uncertainty?

Are you thinking no one can understand and help you out of  your depressed anxiety?

Would you be willing to cry out to Jesus Christ if you are at your wit’s end?

He is more than willing to come to you when you want to come to Him.

You will agree with so many saints, who testify that they cannot imagine their lives without Jesus.

Coming to Jesus Christ will be your most brave and wise decision for your life.

“The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” Psalm 34:18

信主耶穌並受洗的意義是什麼？

1. 真正使你得救的洗是讓主耶穌以水（真理：相信真理）和靈（聖靈：求聖靈充滿/掌權）使你重生。
2. 接受洗禮是你表明對主無虧的良心：公開地感謝主耶穌，因祂公開地承擔那本該是你要被釘在十字架上的刑罰。
3. 改變身份，成為神國公民。

「這水所表明的洗禮，現在藉著耶穌基督復活也拯救你們；這洗禮本不在乎除掉肉體的汙穢，只求在神面前有無虧的良心。」 （彼得前書3:21）

耶穌說：「我實實在在的告訴你，人若不是從水和聖靈生的，就不能進神的國。（約翰福音3:5）
