【上帝会满足你的所需】

sky5107

上帝会按照你的祈求并符合祂的旨意来满足你的所需

你们贪恋，还是得不着。你们杀害嫉妒，又斗殴争战也不能得。你们得不着是因为你们不求，你们求也得不着，是因为你们妄求，要浪费在你们的宴乐中（雅各4:2-3）   

亲爱的弟兄姊妹们，今天你们所需要的是否都被上帝满足了？如果没有，是为什么呢？

按照上帝的话语，究其原因：要么是你根本没有为你的需求而祷告上帝，要么就是你祷告了，但你祷告错了。

祷告错了是什么意思呢？很多时候简单地说就是：祷告了，却没有怀着得到回应的期待。你知道的，很多信徒都会这样做：他们利用祷告作为一种灵上的许愿骨，他们祷告只是抱着儿戏的态度，他们想：“祷告可能得不到什么好处，但是谁知道呢？反正没有害处，不妨一试。”

如果这是你的态度，那你就要改变你的态度，开始认真地对待祷告。不要因为你的牧师教导你或你认为适当，就这样祷告；也不要因为聚会时会众都这样祷告，所以你就随从他们也这样祷告。你要开始怀着得到回应的期待，来向上帝祷告！

开始奉主耶稣的名、以上帝的话语为根基来祷告，并且期待能够得到你每一次所求告的。这是不是有点过分？不是，是坦然无惧，因为你有圣经为根据。

按照上帝的话语，你的天父永远都在邀请你“坦然无惧地来到施恩的宝座前，那么你就会得到所需求的”（希伯来4:16所以我们只管坦然无惧地来到施恩的宝座前，为要得怜恤、蒙恩惠作随时的帮助）。“得到”一词，在这里是肯定性的，字典解释其含义是：获得所有权。

所以，祷告并期待得到你的所需，而且你不要只是偶尔这样做，你要每次祷告都这样去做！当你的祷告没有得到上帝的回应时，你不要就此走开，说：“我想，你永远不会知道上帝要做什么”，你要用双手抓住这个问题，来到上帝的跟前，透过祷告和上帝的话语找出你错在哪里，并且纠正错误。

当你正确地来到上帝的跟前、并以上帝的话语为根基、受圣灵带领来祷告，那么你就会懂得上帝要做什么。上帝会回应你，祂会按照你的祈求并符合祂的旨意来满足你的所需。今天就开始期待上帝的回应吧！

研经：约翰一书5:4-15

5:4 因为凡从 神生的就胜过世界，使我们胜了世界的就是我们的信心。  

5:5 胜过世界的是谁呢？不是那信耶稣是 神儿子的么？  

5:6 这借着水和血而来的就是耶稣基督，不是单用水，乃是用水又用血，  

5:7 并且有圣灵作见证，因为圣灵就是真理。  

5:8 作见证的原来有三，就是圣灵、水与血，这三样也都归于一。  

5:9 我们既领受人的见证， 神的见证更该领受了，因 神的见证是为祂儿子作的。  

5:10 信 神儿子的，就有这见证在他心里。不信 神的，就是将 神当作说谎的，因不信 神为祂儿子作的见证。  

5:11 这见证就是 神赐给我们永生，这永生也是在祂儿子里面。  

5:12 人有了 神的儿子就有生命，没有 神的儿子就没有生命。  

5:13 我将这些话写给你们信奉 神儿子之名的人，要叫你们知道自己有永生。  

5:14 我们若照祂的旨意求甚么，祂就听我们，这是我们向祂所存坦然无惧的心。  

5:15 既然知道祂听我们一切所求的，就知道我们所求于祂的无不得着。  

在此，我们夫妻感谢上帝，我们主耶稣基督的父，赐给我们美好的一天，也赐给我们你们这些忠心于主的弟兄姊妹们。

GOD is going to meet your need exactly as you asked HIM

James 4:2-3

2 You desire but do not have, so you kill. You covet but you cannot get what you want, so you quarrel and fight. You do not have because you do not ask GOD. 3 When you ask, you do not receive, because you ask with wrong motives, that you may spend what you get on your pleasures.

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

Are all your needs met today? If not, why not?

According to the WORD of GOD, it's either because you're not praying about them at all or because when you do pray, you're praying wrong.

What does it mean to pray wrong? In many cases it simply means to pray without expecting results. Many believers do that, you know. They use prayer as a kind of spiritual wishbone. They just play around with it. "This probably won't do much good," they think, "but who knows? It won't hurt to give it a try."

If that's been your attitude, then change it! Start getting serious about prayer. Stop praying just because it's proper. Stop praying just because you always pray at this point in the Gospel Assambly Service. And start praying to get results.

Start praying in the NAME of JESUS according to the WORD of GOD and expecting to receive what you ask for every single time. Isn't that a little presumptuous? No, but it is bold, and you have a scriptural right to be bold.

According to the WORD of GOD, you have a standing invitation from your heavenly FATHER to "come boldly unto the throne of grace, that [you] may obtain" (Hebrews 4:16 Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.). That word obtain is a word of certainty. The dictionary says it means "to get possession of."

So pray, expecting to get possession of what you need, not just once in a while, but every time! When prayers do go unanswered, don't just wander away saying, "I guess you never know what God's going to do." Tackle the problem with both hands! Go to GOD in prayer and in the WORD and find out where you missed it and get the problem corrected.

When you go to GOD in accurate, WORD of GOD based, SPIRIT inspired prayer, you do know what HE's going to do. HE's going to answer you. HE's going to meet your need exactly as you asked HIM. Start expecting HIM to do it today.

Scripture Study:

1 John 5:4 for everyone born of GOD overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith. 5 Who is it that overcomes the world? Only the one who believes that JESUS is the SON of GOD.

6 This is the one who came by water and blood—JESUS CHRIST. HE did not come by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the SPIRIT who testifies, because the SPIRIT is the truth. 7 For there are three that testify: 8 the SPIRIT, the water and the blood; and the three are in agreement. 9 We accept human testimony, but GOD’s testimony is greater because it is the testimony of GOD, which HE has given about his SON. 10 Whoever believes in the SON of GOD accepts this testimony. Whoever does not believe GOD has made HIM out to be a liar, because they have not believed the testimony GOD has given about his SON. 11 And this is the testimony: GOD has given us eternal life, and this life is in his SON. 12 Whoever has the SON has life; whoever does not have the SON of GOD does not have life.

Concluding Affirmations

13 I write these things to you who believe in the name of the SON of GOD so that you may know that you have eternal life. 14 This is the confidence we have in approaching GOD: that if we ask anything according to HIS will, HE hears us. 15 And if we know that HE hears us—whatever we ask—we know that we have what we asked of HIM.

We give thanks to GOD, the FATHER of our LORD JESUS CHRIST, for this day and for you, faithful brothers and sisters.

不再有诅咒

以后再没有咒诅，在城里有 神和羔羊的宝座，祂的仆人都要事奉祂（启示录22:3）

亲爱的弟兄姊妹们，我们简直不能想象一个没有诅咒的生命---不再有疼痛，也不再有关系破裂，不再有挫折、后悔、疲惫，最关键的是不再有死亡（哥林多前书15:26尽末了所毁灭的仇敌，就是死）

Rev. 22:3 And there shall be no more curse, but the throne of GOD and of the LAMB shall be in it, and HIS servants shall serve HIM.

Dear Brothers n Sisters,

We can hardly imagine life without curse. No more pain or broken relationships. No more frustration or regret or exhaustion. And most of all, no death. "The last enemy that will be destroyed is death" - 1 Cor. 15:26.

sky5107

祂是我们的王

我一看见，就仆倒在祂脚前，像死了一样。祂用右手按着我说：“不要惧怕…”（启示录1:17）

亲爱的弟兄姊妹们，当威严和荣耀的基督显现时，约翰惊恐而昏倒在地。所以，我们决不能忘记：我们的救主和朋友，也同样是我们的 神、我们的主人、我们的王和我们的元首！

Rev. 1:17 And when I saw HIM, I fell at HIS feet as dead. But HE laid HIS right hand on me, saying to me, "Do not be afraid; . . . . "

Dear Brothers n Sisters,

The majestic, glorious appearance of the unveiled CHRIST so overwhelmed John that he fainted. We must never forget that our SAVIOR and friend is also our LORD, MASTER, KING, and SOVEREIGN.

当今的法利赛人

那时先见哈拿尼来见犹大王亚撒，对他说：“因你仰赖亚兰王，没有仰赖耶和华你的 神，所以亚兰王的军兵脱离了你的手。古实人路比人的军队不是甚大么？战车马兵不是极多么？只因你仰赖耶和华，祂便将他们交在你手里。耶和华的眼目遍察全地，要显大能帮助向祂心存诚实的人。你这事行得愚昧，此后你必有争战的事。”  

亚撒因此恼恨先见，将他囚在监里。那时亚撒也虐待一些人民。

亚撒所行的事，自始至终都写在犹大和以色列诸王记上。亚撒作王三十九年，他脚上有病，而且甚重，病的时候没有求耶和华，只求医生。他作王四十一年而死，与他列祖同睡，葬在大卫城自己所凿的坟墓里，放在床上，其床堆满各样馨香的香料，就是按作香的作法调和的香料，又为他烧了许多的物件（历代志下16:7-14）  

亲爱的弟兄姊妹们，法利赛人的心令主耶稣非常伤心，他们的心既刚硬又麻木。如果你看了马可福音3章，你就能明白我所讲的。

当时，上帝就在众人之中，众人应该认识到这点。因为他们知道圣经涵盖古今，而主耶稣符合圣经里所有关于弥赛亚的预言，可是他们的心却迟钝得简直瞎了一般，认不出主耶稣是谁。

而法利赛人的心，刚硬到对身边的人有所需求视而不见。

甚至今天，同样的事情仍然在发生着。

现在，让我们重新思考那些法利赛人所做的，他们：

1. 批评那些真心真意、忠诚侍奉上帝的传道人。

2. 维护他们的宗教传统，而不是热爱并服从上帝的话语。

3. 只关心自己的福利，并且只用嘴侍奉主，而不是关爱身边那些贫乏（物质和灵命上）的弟兄姊妹们。

你认识任何一个符合上面描述的基督徒吗？你肯定认识！事实上，我们所有人在生活中的某些时候，都会做出这样的事情。

我们每个人在不同程度上，都会成为犯法利赛人所犯错误的牺牲品，我们会认定自己所做所讲都是“对的”，却让上帝温柔又炽热的爱，在我们里面越来越冷淡。

我知道这是真的，因为若不是真的，我们就会看到上帝在我们中间惊人的运作，也会看到福音复兴在世界的每一个角落。

而这却正是上帝想要做的。上帝想让圣灵透过祂的真信徒涌出超凡大能和丰盛，但是我们却使自己的心发展到抵挡上帝的地步。

如果今天你们正渴望圣灵倾泻在你们的生命中、渴望圣灵在你们的聚会中彰显祂的大能，那么你们就要省察自己的心。如果你发现你的心有任何刚硬的地方，那么你就要悔改，并求上帝改变你。你要祈求上帝赐给你一颗愿意的心，让祂在你的生命中彰显祂的强大。

研经：马可福音3:1-6

3:1 耶稣又进了会堂，在那里有一个人枯干了一只手。  

3:2 众人窥探耶稣在安息日医治不医治，意思是要控告耶稣。  

3:3 耶稣对那枯干一只手的人说：“起来，站在当中。”  

3:4 又问众人说：“在安息日行善行恶、救命害命，哪样是可以的呢？”他们都不作声。  

3:5 耶稣怒目周围看他们，忧愁他们的心刚硬，就对那人说：“伸出手来。”他把手一伸，手就复了原。  

3:6 法利赛人出去，同希律一党的人商议，怎样可以除灭耶稣。  

在此，我们夫妻感谢上帝，我们主耶稣基督的父，赐给我们美好的一天，也赐给我们你们这些忠心于主的弟兄姊妹们。

Pharisees of today

2 Chronicles 16:

7 About that time the prophet Hanani came to King Asa and told him, “Because you have put your trust in the king of Syria instead of in the LORD your GOD, the army of the king of Syria has escaped from you. 8 Don’t you remember what happened to the Ethiopians and Libyans and their vast army, with all of their chariots and cavalrymen? But you relied then on the LORD, and HE delivered them all into your hand. 9 For the eyes of the LORD search back and forth across the whole earth, looking for people whose hearts are perfect toward HIM, so that HE can show HIS great power in helping them. What a fool you have been! From now on you shall have wars.”

10 Asa was so angry with the prophet for saying this that he threw him into jail. And Asa oppressed all the people at that time.

11 The rest of the biography of Asa is written in The Annals of the Kings of Israel and Judah. 12 In the thirty-ninth year of his reign, Asa became seriously diseased in his feet, but he didn’t go to the LORD with the problem but to the doctors. 13-14 So he died in the forty-first year of his reign and was buried in his own vault that he had hewn out for himself in Jerusalem.

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

The Pharisees had a heart condition that grieved JESUS. Their hearts were hard and insensitive. If you'll look in Mark 3, you'll see what I'm talking about.

GOD was right there in their midst and they, of all people, should have realized it. They knew the Scriptures backward and forward, and JESUS fit every messianic prophecy written there. But the insensitivity of their hearts literally blinded them to who HE was.

The hearts of the Pharisees were also hardened to the needs of the people around them.

That very same thing is still happening today.

Just think again about what those Pharisees were doing. They were:

1. Criticizing the true and faithful ministers of GOD.

2. Protecting their religious traditions instead of loving and obeying the WORD of GOD.

3. Worrying about their own welfare and giving lip service to the LORD rather than caring for those needy (physical and spiritual) brothers and sisters around them.

Have you ever known any Christians who fit that description? Sure you have! In fact, every one of us has done those things at some time in our lives.

Every one of us, to one degree or another, has fallen prey to the same mistake the Pharisees did. We've gotten so caught up in doing and saying all the "right" things that we've let the tender warmth of GOD's love inside us grow cold.

I know that's true because if it weren't, we'd be seeing tremendous moves of GOD among us. We'd be seeing revival on every corner.

That's what GOD longs to do. GOD longs to pour out HIS SPIRIT in supernatural power and abundance through HIS true followers. But we've developed a heart condition that's holding HIM back.

Today if you are desiring an outpouring of the HOLY SPIRIT in your life and the manifestation of HIS power in your congregation, check the condition of your heart. If you find any hardness there, repent and ask GOD to change you. Ask HIM to give you the kind of heart that will allow HIM to show HIMSELF strong on your behalf.

Scripture Study:

Mark 3:1-6

1 While in Capernaum JESUS went over to the synagogue again, and noticed a man there with a deformed hand.

2 Since it was the Sabbath, JESUS’ enemies watched HIM closely. Would HE heal the man’s hand? If HE did, they planned to arrest HIM!

3 JESUS asked the man to come and stand in front of the congregation. 4 Then turning to HIS enemies HE asked, “Is it all right to do kind deeds on Sabbath days? Or is this a day for doing harm? Is it a day to save lives or to destroy them?” But they wouldn’t answer HIM. 5 Looking around at them angrily, for HE was deeply disturbed by their indifference to human need, HE said to the man, “Reach out your hand.” He did, and instantly his hand was healed!

6 At once the Pharisees went away and met with the Herodias to discuss plans for killing JESUS.

We give thanks to GOD, the FATHER of our LORD JESUS CHRIST, for this day and for you, faithful brothers and sisters.

我知道你的行为

我知道你的行为、劳碌、忍耐……（启示录2:2）

亲爱的弟兄姊妹们，我们可能有时感到自己默默无闻地劳苦，却被忽视，无人认同。记住，主耶稣鉴察每一件事！我们事工的行为和态度，祂都察看，也会记念！

Rev. 2:2 "I know your works, your labor, your patience . . . . . . "

Dear Brothers n Sisters,

We may sometimes feel as though we toil in anonymity and that our labors go unnoticed and unappreciated. Remember, JESUS notices everything. HE sees both our work and our attitude as we work. And HE remembers.

sky5107

完成事工

你也能忍耐，曾为我的名劳苦，并不乏倦（启示录2:3）

亲爱的弟兄姊妹们，主耶稣赐给我们每个人事工，有时我们会感到繁重又无休止。因此，完成我们的任务既要有恒心，也要有耐性。惟有我们靠着主耶稣的力量才能完成工作，避免疲惫。

Rev. 2:3 "and you have persevered and have patience, and have labored for MY name's sake and have not become weary."

Dear Brothers n Sisters,

The work JESUS gives every one of us to do can feel taxing and almost ending. To complete our assignment takes both perseverance and patience. Only when we labor in HIS strength can we avoid complete weariness.

sky5107

为主耶稣的来临做好准备

主耶稣的来临是瞬时的，我们要做好准备（帖撒罗尼迦前书5:1-11）

亲爱的弟兄姊妹们，很多人声称相信上帝，却从没有向上帝做出任何悔改的承诺。他们说可以在快死的时候，再接受耶稣为救主，他们宁愿选择活在自以为乐的生命里，却不选择降服在主耶稣的教导之下。在他们悖逆的意念里，自以为欺骗上帝，就能兼得今生肉体的享乐和来世的永生。这是极其愚蠢的，也是非常危险的！因为在人年老的时候，灵命很难能够更加敏锐，而事实相反，他们通常会变得更加抵挡上帝，况且我们也根本不知道自己什么时候死。可能我们还没来得及悔改，一个意外就要了我们的命。而且主耶稣随时都会来临，等到那时，我们再做什么都为时已晚，主耶稣的来临好像“夜间的贼”（因为你们自己明明晓得，主的日子来到好像夜间的贼一样---帖撒罗尼迦前书5:2）

让我们一起祷告：

赞美上帝，靠着基督，我们才能为主耶稣的来临做好准备！

民中的万族啊，你们要将荣耀能力归给耶和华，都归给耶和华！

要将耶和华的名所当得的荣耀归给祂，拿供物来奉到祂面前，当以圣洁的妆饰敬拜耶和华（历代志上16:28-29）

1 Thessalonians 5:1-11：The coming of the Lord will be instantaneous, and we should be ready!

Dear Brothers n Sisters

Many people who claim to believe in God have never made a commitment to Him. They say that at the end of their lives they will accept Jesus as Savior, preferring instead to live as they please rather than bowing to His claims. In their deceived minds, they have outwitted God and had it both ways. This is extremely foolish and very dangerous. Such people rarely get more spiritually sensitive in their old age. In fact, they often become more resistant to the Lord. Also, we never know when we will die. An accident might take us before we can repent. Or the Lord could come at any minute, and it would be too late. The coming of the Lord will be like "a thief in the night" (v. 2 For you yourselves know full well that the day of the Lord will come just like a thief in the night.).

Let us pray:-

Praise God that in Christ we can be ready for the coming of the Lord:

Give to the Lord, O families of the peoples,

Give to the Lord glory and strength.

Give to the Lord the glory due His name;

Bring an offering, and come before Him;

Oh, worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness! (1 Chronicles 16:28-29).

若不悔改

你当悔改！若不悔改，我就快临到你那里，用我口中的剑攻击他们（启示录2:16）

亲爱的弟兄姊妹们，永远没有人能够想象到上帝无条件的大爱，但并不代表上帝不会惩罚顽梗不改的儿女。以上的经文，主耶稣就用强重措词提醒我们：祂希望我们悔改，服从祂的旨意！

Rev. 2:16 "Repent, or else I will come to you quickly and will fight against them with the sword of MY mouth. . . . . "

Dear Brothers n Sisters,

No one should ever imagine that the unconditional love of GOD means that HE will never discipline HIS unrepentant children. JESUS uses strong language here to remind us that HE expects us to represent HIM will.

sky5107

略有一点力量

我知道你的行为，你略有一点力量，也曾遵守我的道，没有弃绝我的名。看哪，我在你面前给你一个敞开的门，是无人能关的（启示录3:8）

亲爱的弟兄姊妹们，我们并不是必须要成为强大的得胜者或征服巨人的勇士，才能使上帝在我们面前给我们一个敞开的门。当我们服从祂的话语并荣耀祂儿子的时候，即使我们“略有一点力量”，就已足够。

Rev. 3:8 "I know your works. See, I have set before you an open door, and no one can shut it, for you have a little strenght, have kept MY WORD, and have not denied MY name."

Dear Brothers n Sister,

We do not have to be mighty conquerors or giant-killers to take advantage of the open doors of opportunity that GOD sets before us; a "little strength" is plenty when we obey HIS WORD and honor HIS SON.

我必从口中把你吐出去



我知道的行为，你也不冷也不热，我巴不得你或冷或热。你既如温水，也不冷也不热，所以我必从我口中把你吐出去（启示录3:15-16）



亲爱的弟兄姊妹们，这是主耶稣斥责老底嘉教会那些自鸣得意和自以为是的信徒，因为对主而言，在本质上他们是无用的。他们宁愿选择属世短暂的舒适，而不求灵命的长进，他们的自满令主耶稣作呕。



在基督里，我深爱的弟兄姊妹们，不要把自己的思想言行与教会里的人对比，而是要以上帝的话语为基准来察看自己，不要让自己像老底嘉教会的信徒一样。



Rev. 3:15-16 "I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I could wish you were cold or hot. So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold or hot, I will vomit you out of MY mouth."



Dear Brothers n Sisters,



JESUS tells the smug and self-satisfied members of the Laodicean church that they are essentially useless to HIM. They had chosen comfort over spiritual combat, and their complacency nauseated JESUS.



My dearly loved brothers and sisters in CHRIST, don't compare yourself to the people in your church, but compare yourself to the WORD of GOD, and see if you are just like the Laodicean church!
