0611 我活在你里面

你给自己太大的压力——太专注于自己是否有能力去听、去说、去做我要求你做的事情,好像这一切都取决于你的能力一样。你心中想做的事,是我放在那里的,它已经被我的灵赋予意义;正是我的灵在你里面,释放出神迹。

这并非取决于你是否相信自己能做到什么,而是取决于你是否相信我——永活的上帝——确实住在你里面。如果我在你里面,我就会透过你彰显出来,你那一部分只有很少的努力。你所需要的,只是单纯地顺服,走出你自己所设立的界限——那些界限限制了你相信我借着你能做什么以及不能做什么。【你所需要的,就是以单纯顺服的心回应神的呼召,走出自己因惧怕、不信或自我设限而建立的框架,不要把神的工作局限在你有限的理解之中;因为神往往能够借着软弱的人,成就远超过他们所想象的事。】当我要求你做一件事的时候,不要先审视自己,看看自己是否拥有足够的信心来承担它。【神的呼召不是要你先证明自己有多大的信心,而是要你因着信靠祂的能力而顺服前行。不要一直测量自己的信心有多少,而要仰望那位赐信心、成全信心的主。】要仰望我——信心的化身。这从来都不是、永远不会是关于你能够做什么;而是关于我能透过你做什么。我是全能者,活在你里面。

永远不要怀疑神大能的能力在你里面运行,并成就这一切。祂所要成就的,将无限超越你最大的祈求、你最难以置信的梦想,并远远超过你最狂野的想象!祂要超越一切,因为祂神奇的能力会不断地为你注入能量。——以弗所书3:20

0611 I am alive within you.

You put too much pressure on yourself–too much focus on your ability to hear, to speak, to do what I ask you to do, as if any of it is contingent upon your ability. What is in your heart to do has been placed there by me. It has been breathed upon by my Spirit. And it’s my Spirit in you that releases miracles.

It isn’t based on whether you have faith in what you can do. It’s based on faith that I–the living God–truly abide within you. If I am within you, I will manifest through you with very little effort on your part. All that’s needed is simple obedience to step beyond the boundaries you have created–boundaries that set limits on what you believe I can and cannot do through you.  Don’t look to yourself when I ask you to do something, checking to see if you have the faith for it. Look to me–the One who is the embodiment of faith. It has never been, nor will it ever be about what you can do. It is about what I can do through you. I am the all-powerful One, alive in you.

Never doubt God’s mighty power to work in you and accomplish all this. He will achieve infinitely more than your greatest request, your most unbelievable dream, and exceed your wildest imagination! He will outdo them all, for his miraculous power constantly energizes you. — EPHESIANS 3:20
