For thou shalt break forth on the right hand and on the left; and thy seed shall inherit the Gentiles, and make the desolate cities to be inhabited.

我們要領受使命

（一）牧養的使命

路 9:11 但众人知道了，就跟着他去。耶稣便接待他们，对他们讲论　神国的道，医治那些需医的人。

And the people, when they knew it, followed him: and he received them, and spake unto them of the kingdom of God, and healed them that had need of healing.

1） 彼此接納

沒有人在乎你懂得了多少，直到他知道你在乎他多少。

Peoples do not care what you know, until they know what you care.

2） 彼此造就

耶穌使水變酒

愛和能力也可以傳染的。

3）彼此服事

你需要為你的靈命負責。

（二）福音的使命

1）小組是傳福音最有效的平台

2）福音不是進入死海而是入約旦河（繁殖）

書 1:3 凡你们脚掌所踏之地，我都照着我所应许摩西的话赐给你们了。

Every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon, that have I given unto you, as I said unto Moses.

（三）效法主的使命

太 3:13 当下，耶稣从加利利来到约旦河，见了约翰，要受他的洗。

Then cometh Jesus from Galilee to Jordan unto John, to be baptized of him.

3:14 约翰想要拦住他，说：“我当受你的洗，你反倒上我这里来吗？”

But John forbad him, saying, I have need to be baptized of thee, and comest thou to me?

3:15 耶稣回答说：“你暂且许我，因为我们理当这样尽诸般的义（或作“礼”）。”于是约翰许了他。

And Jesus answering said unto him, Suffer it to be so now: for thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness. Then he suffered him.

腓 2:6 他本有　神的形像，不以自己与　神同等为强夺的，

Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:

2:7 反倒虚己，取了奴仆的形像，成为人的样式。

But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:

2:8 既有人的样子，就自己卑微，存心顺服，以至于死，且死在十字架上。

And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.fashion: or habit

2:9 所以　神将他升为至高，又赐给他那超乎万名之上的名，

Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name:

2:10 叫一切在天上的、地上的和地底下的，因耶稣的名无不屈膝，

That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;

2:11 无不口称耶稣基督为主，使荣耀归与父　神。

And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

太 3:17 从天上有声音说：“这是我的爱子，我所喜悦的。”

And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

3:16 耶稣受了洗，随即从水里上来。天忽然为他开了，他就看见　神的灵仿佛鸽子降下，落在他身上。

And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him:

離開你所認為的安全區-余牧師 21/2/2016

列王上19:1 亚哈将以利亚一切所行的和他用刀杀众先知的事，都告诉耶洗别。

And Ahab told Jezebel all that Elijah had done, and withal how he had slain all the prophets with the sword.

19:2 耶洗别就差遣人去见以利亚，告诉他说：“明日约在这时候，我若不使你的性命像那些人的性命一样，愿神明重重地降罚与我。”

Then Jezebel sent a messenger unto Elijah, saying, So let the gods do to me, and more also, if I make not thy life as the life of one of them by to morrow about this time.

19:3 以利亚见这光景，就起来逃命，到了犹大的别是巴，将仆人留在那里。

And when he saw that, he arose, and went for his life, and came to Beersheba, which belongeth to Judah, and left his servant there.

19:4 自己在旷野走了一日的路程，来到一棵罗腾树下（“罗腾”，小树名，松类。下同）；就坐在那里求死，说：“耶和华啊，罢了！求你取我的性命，因为我不胜于我的列祖。”

But he himself went a day's journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a juniper tree: and he requested for himself that he might die; and said, It is enough; now, O LORD, take away my life; for I am not better than my fathers.for himself: Heb. for his life

19:5 他就躺在罗腾树下睡着了。有一个天使拍他，说：“起来吃吧！”

And as he lay and slept under a juniper tree, behold, then an angel touched him, and said unto him, Arise and eat.

19:6 他观看，见头旁有一瓶水与炭火烧的饼，他就吃了喝了，仍然躺下。

And he looked, and, behold, there was a cake baken on the coals, and a cruse of water at his head. And he did eat and drink, and laid him down again.head: Heb. bolster

19:7 耶和华的使者第二次来拍他，说：“起来吃吧！因为你当走的路甚远。”

And the angel of the LORD came again the second time, and touched him, and said, Arise and eat; because the journey is too great for thee.

19:8 他就起来吃了喝了，仗着这饮食的力，走了四十昼夜，到了　神的山，就是何烈山。

And he arose, and did eat and drink, and went in the strength of that meat forty days and forty nights unto Horeb the mount of God.

19:9 他在那里进了一个洞，就住在洞中。耶和华的话临到他说：“以利亚啊，你在这里作什么？”

And he came thither unto a cave, and lodged there; and, behold, the word of the LORD came to him, and he said unto him, What doest thou here, Elijah?

19:10 他说：“我为耶和华万军之　神大发热心；因为以色列人背弃了你的约，毁坏了你的坛，用刀杀了你的先知，只剩下我一个人，他们还要寻索我的命。”

And he said, I have been very jealous for the LORD God of hosts: for the children of Israel have forsaken thy covenant, thrown down thine altars, and slain thy prophets with the sword; and I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away.

19:11 耶和华说：“你出来站在山上，在我面前。”那时，耶和华从那里经过，在他面前有烈风大作，崩山碎石，耶和华却不在风中；风后地震，耶和华却不在其中；

And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the LORD. And, behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the LORD; but the LORD was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; but the LORD was not in the earthquake:

19:12 地震后有火，耶和华也不在火中；火后有微小的声音。

And after the earthquake a fire; but the LORD was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice.

許多理想不能實現的地方在哪？

山洞變墳墓

怕輸  怕面對事實

怕失敗   怕受傷   怕死

神吩咐以利亞離開山東，神今天也要你離開你所認為的安全區會l

不被接納   孤單   絕望

以利亞為何會失敗？

1）他太孤單！

有個屬靈的同伴

2）他太忙

忙   茫   盲

3）跟人比較！

不要比較。

人有四個部分

1）別人眼中的你：就是別人怎麼看你

2）自己眼中的你：就是你怎麼看自己

3）不想讓別人知道的你：生命中不能說的秘密

4）連你自己也不知道的你：這部分，只有神知道，連自己都不知道

耶穌的邀請！來！

我總不丟棄他

約6:35 耶稣说：“我就是生命的粮，到我这里来的，必定不饿；信我的，永远不渴。

And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.

6:36 只是我对你们说过，你们已经看见我，还是不信。

But I said unto you, That ye also have seen me, and believe not.

6:37 凡父所赐给我的人，必到我这里来；到我这里来的，我总不丢弃他。

All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.

耶和華說，你出'來'

1）出來

約11:43 说了这话，就大声呼叫说：“拉撒路出来！”

And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth.

11:44 那死人就出来了，手脚裹着布，脸上包着手巾。耶稣对他们说，“解开，叫他走！”

And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes: and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus saith unto them, Loose him, and let him go.

綑綁、 壓制、 絕望

2）下來！

路19:5 耶稣到了那里，抬头一看，对他说：“撒该，快下来！今天我必住在你家里。”

And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up, and saw him, and said unto him, Zacchaeus, make haste, and come down; for to day I must abide at thy house.

被人排斥、 拒絕

3）回來！

路15:20 于是起来，往他父亲那里去。相离还远，他父亲看见，就动了慈心，跑去抱着他的颈项，连连与他亲嘴。

And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him.

做錯、 犯罪、 反抗、 不孝

4）起來！

太9:6 但要叫你们知道，人子在地上有赦罪的权柄。”就对瘫子说：“起来，拿你的褥子回家去吧！”

But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins, (then saith he to the sick of the palsy,) Arise, take up thy bed, and go unto thine house.

9:7 那人就起来，回家去了。

And he arose, and departed to his house.

5）進來！

啓3:20 看哪，我站在门外叩门，若有听见我声音就开门的，我要进到他那里去，我与他，他与我，一同坐席。

Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.

Fasting Prayer Day 4 19/2/2016

Day 4 –

Pray that your husband will grow in leadership skills in your relationship—protecting and providing for you. Pray that he will lead you wisely and love you sacrificially, so that God will be glorified in your marriage. (Eph. 5:25-29; Col. 3:19)

“Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless. In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. After all, no one ever hated their own body, but they feed and care for their body, just as Christ does the church—”

Ephesians 5:25-29 NIV

“Husbands, love your wives and do not be harsh with them.”

Colossians 3:19 NIV

Fasting Prayer Day 3 17/2/2016

Pray that your husband will be humble and quick to agree with God about his sin. Pray that his heart will be tender toward the voice of the Lord. (Ps. 51:2-4; Micah 6:8)

“Wash away all my iniquity and cleanse me from my sin. For I know my transgressions, and my sin is always before me. Against you, you only, have I sinned and done what is evil in your sight; so you are right in your verdict and justified when you judge.”

Psalm 51:2-4 NIV

“He has shown you, O mortal, what is good. And what does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.”

Fasting Prayer Day 2 16/2/2016

Day 2 – pray for my future husband.

Pray that your husband’s relationship with God and His Word will bear fruit in his life. Pray that he will be a man of wisdom and understanding, fearing the Lord. (Prov. 3:7, 9:10; Ps. 112:1)

“Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and shun evil.”

Proverbs 3:7 NIV

“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and knowledge of the Holy One is understanding.”

Proverbs 9:10 NIV

“Praise the Lord. Blessed are those who fear the Lord, who find great delight in his commands.”

Psalm 112:1 NIV

Today Desmond called me and asked me about what's my criteria of my future husband. I told him, the important criteria would be, love God first before anything, include me! Seems ridiculous with what's the man I'm waiting for, but I know God will prepare it for me as what I have requested.

Fasting Prayer Day 1 15/2/2016

1) pray for God's plan in me for my serving, job, husband and family.

Day 1 –  

Pray that your husband will grow spiritually and consider his accountability before the Lord. Pray that he will guard his heart by developing spiritual disciplines—Bible reading and study, prayer, meditation, scripture memorization, etc. (2 Peter 3:18; Prov. 4:23)

“But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever! Amen.”

2 Peter 3:18 NIV

“Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it.”

Proverbs 4:23 NIV

1）平凡無奈的生活

耶稣站在革尼撒勒湖边，众人拥挤他，要听　神的道。

And it came to pass, that, as the people pressed upon him to hear the word of God, he stood by the lake of Gennesaret,

他见有两只船湾在湖边，打鱼的人却离开船洗网去了。

And saw two ships standing by the lake: but the fishermen were gone out of them, and were washing their nets.

有一只船是西门的。耶稣就上去，请他把船撑开，稍微离岸，就坐下，从船上教训众人。

And he entered into one of the ships, which was Simon's, and prayed him that he would thrust out a little from the land. And he sat down, and taught the people out of the ship.

讲完了，对西门说：“把船开到水深之处，下网打鱼。”

Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught.

西门说：“夫子，我们整夜劳力，并没有打着什么。但依从你的话，我就下网。”

And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net.

他们下了网，就圈住许多鱼，网险些裂开，

And when they had this done, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net brake.

便招呼那只船上的同伴来帮助。他们就来，把鱼装满了两只船，甚至船要沉下去。

And they beckoned unto their partners, which were in the other ship, that they should come and help them. And they came, and filled both the ships, so that they began to sink.

西门彼得看见，就俯伏在耶稣膝前，说：“主啊，离开我，我是个罪人！”

When Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord.

他和一切同在的人都惊讶这一网所打的鱼。

For he was astonished, and all that were with him, at the draught of the fishes which they had taken:

他的伙伴西庇太的儿子雅各、约翰也是这样。耶稣对西门说：“不要怕！从今以后，你要得人了。”

And so was also James, and John, the sons of Zebedee, which were partners with Simon. And Jesus said unto Simon, Fear not; from henceforth thou shalt catch men.

他们把两只船拢了岸，就撇下所有的，跟从了耶稣。

And when they had brought their ships to land, they forsook all, and followed him.

路5:1-15
