別限制自己Do Not Limit Yourself

在"不要限制自己"的印象中醒來...
Waking up with an impression,
Don't limit yourself...

以往總是想...
自己是一個"聽"的人(音樂家嘛)
比較不是"visual person"(圖像式的人)
所以在聽神聲音時比較傾向於"聽"
但昨晚在傾聽神聲音特會中
主再次藉著Mark Virkler 提醒我...
"以看異象來聽神聲音"
I used to think about myself...
more audio than visual...(I am a musician)
But God reminded me in last night
conference through Mark last night...
"Look for a Vision"... to hear His voice

今晨主進一步提醒我...
是, 你要使用我所已經給你的---
(音樂家"聽"的能力)
但不要限制自己... 
我也藉著"圖象"向你說話...
This morning God continues....
"Yes, use "audio" gift that I give you...
but don't limit yourself on that...
I will give you "vision" too..."

神讓我想起20多年前...
當我因為失戀去讀約伯記時...
讀完後真的不懂...
為何神不告訴約伯他受苦的原因...
(因此也不懂自己為何受苦)
有一天開車上Freeway時,
"看"到眼前那一片山....
突然間神的話臨到...
"你看這山是誰的?"
主啊!是祢的...
"如果全地都是我的...
要我給你一個太太...簡單嗎 ?"
簡單....
"為何我現在不給你呢?"
..............
就這樣, 神的話臨到....
我剎那間明白了約伯記中的話...
也明白了神為何容許這苦難臨到自己..
Immediately I thought of 1 thing
happened 20 years ago...
When I read Job because of
my "suffering of losing girl friend"...
I didn't understand the book of Job at all...
Why didn't God tell Job "why he suffered"
(Why God allowed this suffering on me?)
But one day when I drove upto freeway...
I "saw" the mountain before me....
to make a long story short...
God's word flew out of my thought....
A conversation happened between God & me
And suddenly I got it... I understood....

神讓我想起....
是當我"看到"時...我就"聽到"....
神已經作了...祂還要更多更多的作...
是的...昨天主要我"更積極地要更多"
今天, 我要說....
主啊 ! 給我看更多異象! 哈利路亞 !
God showed me...
When I "see"... I "hear"
He did it before... and He will do it more....
Yesterday, God said "more aggressive"
Today I will say... Yes... more ...
Lord, give me more "vision".... Hallelujah!

積極一點 More aggressive

While waking up, I got an impression....
A little bit more aggressive, then
you will not only "circling" your life
but "live" your life well...
you will not only surviving,
but feeling ALIVE !
今晨醒過來時的印象是...
積極一點, 就不會"繞圈子"生活
而是"有目標地向前生活"...
不僅是"還活著"...而是"生龍活虎"!

I asked the Lord ...
In which area I should more aggressive?
The Lord reminded me...
in "pursuing me"...
in "praying for non-believer"
in "loving unloveable people".....
等候神時問神說在那一方面要積極一點
主提醒我...要
更積極渴慕我
更積極迫切禱告
更積極愛那些批評論斷者...

The Lord also reminds me...
"more" doesn't mean "not good enough" (feeling condemned)
but means "there is always more in Me...
because I am a God of abundance...
And I will give you more
when you desire more...."
主也提醒我,
"多一點"不意味"總是不夠好"(覺得被定罪)
而是說 "在我裡面總是有更多....
因我豐盛的神... 所以
當你積極地渴慕多一點...
我就會賜給你多一點'"

Hallelujah... what a promise....
Lord, help me... guide me...
I will be more aggressively...
wanting more from You....
哈利路亞...何等應許...
主啊! 助我導我...積極地尋求
我要更多更多從祢來的豐盛....

為未信朋友禱告Pray for a unbeliever friend

今晨為一位未信朋友禱告時,
想起一幅笑死我的圖畫...


但使我驚奇的是...
主好像很認真...
While praying for a non-Christian friend,
God reminded me of this picture which
says... Believing in Jesus, You will have
a "Vietnamese Bride"(instead of "eternity")
What amazes me is....
God seems to be pretty serious about that....

每次跟這位朋友接觸,
就是聽他說及"交女友"的需要與失敗...
藉著這幅圖畫, 神好像在說...
那就是他最現實的需要...
雖然知道他最需要的是"耶穌"
可是要從他的"現實需要"著手...切入...
Everytime when I am with this person
he mentions his need and failure
in "relationship" with girl.
I think God is trying to remind me...
That is his "immediate... felt" need.
Even though I know what he really need is Jesus,
but we need to start with his immediate need...
Try to help him in this area....

主啊! 救救我....如何做呢 ?
Oh Lord, help..... show me how!

安靜 Be Still

DNA之D 就是要操練聽神的聲音
而操練聽神的聲音有四個步驟
D (Divine Truth) is to hea God's voice
there are 4 Steps for Hearing God's Voice

1. 安靜 Be Still
2. 注目耶穌 Focus on Jesus
3. 聖靈的水流 Spontaneous Thought
4. 寫下來印證 Write it down to be comfirmed

許多人反應第一個步驟(安靜)很難...
自己操練時也發現場
在安靜時常常思緒會繞地球好幾圈
今晨在安靜中主提醒我
要與大家分享一些安靜的秘訣...
Many say the first step(be still) is very hard.
I find that's very true because...
when I try to be still,
all kinds of thoughts fly over my head...
And this morning the Lord reminded me...
Share with people "how" to be still...

安靜的基本動作...some basics to be still
首先要坐得舒服...Sit comfortably...
放鬆... Relax...
深呼吸... deep breath in and out
面帶微笑... Smile... (help you to relax)
打開雙手...手心向上...
Open your hands...upwards...
若是能安靜...If you can be still...
慢慢進入第二步驟... flow into 2nd step
注目耶穌... Focus on Jesus
小聲默念主的名字...whisper God's name...

但往往發現自己無法安靜...
思緒雜亂...心事一件一件浮上心頭...
But when you find your souls not resting...
many thoughts like turmoil inside...
此時你可以 Several things you could do
1. 把它們一一寫下來... Write them down...
可以一分鐘處理好的... 馬上處理...
其它的留待以後處理...
Things that you can handle in one minute....
do it right away....
Tell youself that you will handle others later

2. 當你手心向上時... hands facing upwards...
把浮上心頭的心事...一件一件交給主...
Give thoughts in your minds to the Lord....
輕聲向主說...主啊 ! 交給你...
saying to Him.... Lord, I give this to You
主啊...你掌權....... You are in control...

此時我常發現... Gradually... I feel....
我的手開始微麻...Hands feeling num
我感受到主的同在...God's presence
主的平安與溫暖進入心中 peace...
all over... come into my heart..
覺得四周的空氣好溫暖
心中祥和...愛...甜蜜開始充滿...
even the air is warm... so peaceful...
Love... Sweetness...warms my heart....

鼓勵你....試試看....神真是美好...
Just want to encourage you...
try it... God is so Good.....

具體的感動 Specific Reminder

過了一個Long weekend,
本想好好睡一覺...到自然醒...
沒想到還是4點半就醒過來...
跟主賴床一陣...主啊!讓我多睡點嘛..
迷迷糊糊又過了半個小時,
一股強烈的感動又叫醒了我...

起來安靜時, 主"具體地"提醒我
今天要完成兩件事...
1. 回信給台灣一個牧者朋友...為他禱告
他的師母因為"聖靈學校"...長期與他不同心...
導至家庭與服事極大的痛苦
主更提醒我...
這就是為何許多人懼怕踏進聖靈的領域的原因
因為有太多負面的見證...
(求主憐憫我們這些DNA的伙伴...
在操練聽主聲音時能活出正面的見證)

2. 今早打球後要去見西區聯禱會的牧者...
一方面談8號法案的事...
一方面邀他們來參加"傾聽神聲音"的特會

感謝主! 操練聽主聲音一陣子...
我都提醒大家從"一般性...關係"來入門
如今, 主開始有"具體"的提醒...
主啊! 祢必與我同行前往...
