The unbelief chooses to believe their own perceptions and intentionally choose not to trust God.
Unbelief will cause you to intentionally dismiss God’s power in favor of your own abilities.
Lord, I believe in You. I will not choose to believe what I perceive with my senses over what you have promised. In Jesus Christ’s name. Amen.
So we see that they were not able to enter, because of their unbelief. (Hebrews 3:19)
Prayer inspired by <Jeremiah 32:39-41>
Praise God for giving me a single heart and action, always revereing You, who is for my own good and the good of my children.
You made an everlasting covenant through Jesus Christ with me and You promise that you will never stop doing good to us.
You inspire us to revere you.
You rejoice in doing us good and surely plant us in Your kingdom with all your heart and soul.
Prayer inspired by <Psalms 89:15-17>
Praise God for being my Father God.
Thank God for Your joyful calling me to worship.
For I will walk in the Light of Your presence.
How happy I am.
God is the Living presence.
專心，用心，全心，
活在當下。
每個氣息，
都是祂榮耀。
因祂與我同在，
祂喜樂呼召我 （祂全心全意）
使我走進真光，
一生歡欣敬拜祂。（我全心全意）
With God,
I have forgiveness, hope, unfailing love and redemption. (Psalm 130)
How precious is His presence.
I have stilled and quieted my soul, (Psalm 131)
like a child, resting and satisfied in His arms.
May God give me His burning word like a fire in my heart, (Jeremiah 21)
and thank Him for His holy fire,
not consume me out of HIs mercy,
but sanctify me out of His grace,
to be His holy bride, co-heir of Jesus Christ.
願上帝祝福你明白你爭戰的日子已滿，你的罪孽已蒙赦免，主耶穌已經為妳加倍受罰，因此你在父神面前是公義聖潔完美的，所以你能坦然無懼、手潔心清來向父神求一切祂透過主耶穌要賜給你的應許。使你成為勇敢宣揚祂真理的使者，祂以大能膀臂掌管你的一生，你的獎賞存留到永恆裡。（以賽亞書40，哥林多後書1:20）
天父上帝是你的好牧者，將妳褓抱懷中，慢慢引導你這乳養小孩的母親。祂是永在的神，創造地極的主，祂賜能力給疲乏的，加力量給軟弱的。你等候耶和華的，必重新得力。祂的膀臂必為妳掌權，你的賞賜在祂那裡。
奉主耶穌基督的名求。
（以賽亞書40）
「你們中間誰是沒有罪的，誰就可以先拿石頭打她。」耶穌說。
眾人一一離開了。
約伯說：「我從前風聞有你，今天親眼見你。因此我悔改我所說過的話。」
願上帝的聖靈與台灣眾聖徒同在，不叫我們遇見定罪人的試探，救我們脫離定罪人的惡靈。因為廢王立王都在掌管歷史的上帝的手中，所以我們信靠上帝父神要在祂命定的時候，報答與報應個人所行的。
你信上帝所說的一切應許，這就算為你的義。
Praise God who is awesome and worthy of our reverence.
Praise God for making the mountains rise, spreading the flowing seas abroad, and building the lofty skies.
Praise God for His goodness to fill the earth with food, form the creatures through His Word and pronounce them good.
Praise God for displaying His power and opening our spiritual eyes to gaze and be amazed at His wonderful works.
May God forgive our wandering thoughts which easily become snares to our walking with God.
Thank God for making each of the saints all glorious in Jesus Christ and wherever we can be, You are present with us.
May God teach us His way to walk in His truth and unite our hearts to fear His name alone.
May the saints understand the power of God’s commands that shall help them overcome sins and evils.
May the saints come to God with confidence to serve Him in His holiness and righteousness without being deceived to be the slaves of sins again.
May our leaders feel secure and satisfied in Jesus Christ who absorbed all the wrath of God and His perfect love dispels the fear of legalism.
May our leaders pray everywhere, lifting up their holy hands without wrath and doubting.
May the fear of God be a fountain of life in your hearts.
In Jesus Christ’s name. Amen.
Father, hear us, we are praying,
Hear the words our hearts are saying,
We are praying for our children.
Keep them from the powers of evil,
From the secret, hidden peril,
From the whirlpool that would suck them,
From the treacherous quicksand pluck them.
From the worldling’s hollow gladness,
From the sting of faithless sadness,
Holy Father, save our children.
Through life’s troubled waters steer them,
Through life’s bitter battle cheer them,
Father, Father, be Thou near them.
Read the language of our longing,
Hear the wordless pleadings thronging,
Holy Father, for our children.
And wherever they may bide,
Lead them Home at eventide.
From Toward Jerusalem, by Amy Carmichael
Gentle words are a tree of life; a deceitful tongue crushes the spirit. (Proverbs 15:4)
Finally, all of you be of one mind, having compassion for one another; love as brothers, be tenderhearted, be courteous; not returning evil for evil or reviling for reviling, but on the contrary blessing, knowing that you were called to this, that you may inherit a blessing. For “He who would love life And see good days, Let him refrain his tongue from evil, And his lips from speaking deceit. Let him turn away from evil and do good; Let him seek peace and pursue it. For the eyes of the Lord are on the righteous. And His ears are open to their prayers; But the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.” (1 Peter 3:8-12, NKJV)
This world looks for encouraging words.
Why are we so stingy to share those thoughts?
Because we don’t often hear them by ourselves; instead, we hear and speak more harsh and arrogant judgments out of pride to crush people, even our own souls.
However, Christians are called to blessing (refer to 1 Peter 3:8-12).
How about starting Today and learning from Jesus Christ?
When gentle words are planted, hope, courage and confidence grow.
Since the saints are enabled to listen to God’s encouraging words through the Holy Spirit, we can speak and plant those gentle words in the dry hearts of lost souls.
May God guide us to give His gentle words of life to our children and people, so that they may grow strong in their spirit, faithful in God, hopeful in Jesus, and confident in who they are in Christ. In Jesus Christ’s name. Amen.

If your words have cheered one failing heart, kindled anew one fading altar fire, your work is not a failure; chords are touched that will re-echo from the angel choir.–Cynthia D. Harvey Thomas
Praise God, who is worthy of all our praise because He is the only True God and Creator of all creation.
Praise God, who is love and willing to be merciful to sinners by sending His only Son, Jesus Christ to the world, who is the ultimate Solution to all human problems.
Praise God, who is the Prince of Shalom, comes to reconcile with sinners who offend Him, miss His standard and keep the glory to themselves, rather than give all the acclaim back to Him.
Praise God, who is doing new things by going before us and preparing a new way in the spiritual desert and wilderness of pandemic.
Thank Jesus Christ for holding us like little lambs, close to His heart so that we can hear His heartbeat of delight in us as His children, redeemed by His precious blood.
May we revere God by seeing His mighty hand is not lifting up against the saints in Christ, but destroying the devil’s works.
May we choose to have the heart of Jesus Christ to be humble to God and obey Him out of love and reverence to go to the world with compassion through our prayer and action.
May we not focus on our church need alone, but on the hoarseness of crying from the lost souls.
May we humble ourselves to seek God and find Him and come alongside Him to do Jesus Christ’s Great Commission, making disciples to the end of the world through prayer and a new way of church gathering.
May we bring the good news of gospel and Jesus Christ’s name, the only Remedy to people, because we have been called to be His blessing to one another and the world.
In Jesus Christ’s name. Amen.
