我們絕對有信心若上帝站在我們這一邊時,無人(或非人)能抵擋. 問題在於如何得知上帝是 for us,還是against us.我們常常自以為是,以為所做所為合乎上帝的安排,但在結果尚未出現前如何確認真的是上帝要我們做的,畢竟所謂結果好壞不見得是符合人所想的好壞,塞翁失馬焉知非福,沒有到末日來臨,一切都還是未知數.
我目前所能理解的做法,就是從禱告讀經還有周遭的事物去尋求上帝的旨意,在心中形成一把尺,這把尺是以我所能理解的真理形成,來導引面對的事情.不管事成與不成都坦然接受,不怨天尤人.

Focus on the Dream
TODAY'S SCRIPTURE
"If God is for us, who can ever be against us? " (Romans 8:31, NLT)
TODAY'S WORD from Joel and Victoria
What are you focusing on today? Are you focusing on your difficult situation, or on God's promises? You may have all kinds of problems coming at you. Maybe you're feeling discouraged as new problems and challenges have popped up in your life. Don't let it get you down. Don't let it take your focus off of God. He is working on your behalf in the supernatural, even when you can't see it. Keep your trust and your focus on His promises, not on your problems.
It's important that you keep your heart in an attitude of faith. Believe that God is for you. Believe His plans for you have not changed despite new problems or troubling circumstances. The more you focus on what God's doing, the more your faith will grow.
If it feels like you're facing impossible challenges, don't be afraid. God is on your side–nothing is impossible for Him. Stay focused on what God can do in your life. Remember, He's always in control. God knows the end from the beginning and He allows challenges in your life to cause you to trust Him more. As you put your faith in Him, you'll grow closer to God and you'll see your dreams come true!
A PRAYER FOR TODAY
"Father in Heaven, thank You for being with me. I choose today to focus on You and not on my situation. And I refuse to allow the enemy's attacks to come against my dreams. I will continue to walk by faith, not by sight knowing You are with me every step of the way. In Jesus' Name. Amen"
