The Bible in a Year “Moses built an altar and called it The LORD Is My Banner.” Exodus 17:15 As we continue our journey through Scripture, Exodus 17 draws us into a moment that is both historical and deeply instructive for daily faith. Israel has just come through a fierce confrontation with Amalek—a battle thatContinue reading “Raising the Banner After the Battle”

A Day in the Life “And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” John 8:32 When I walk with Jesus through the Gospels, one of the most striking patterns I notice is how often He speaks about truth not as information, but as transformation. Jesus never treats truth as aContinue reading “When Truth Moves from Words to Freedom”

As the Day Begins “The eyes of the LORD run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose heart is loyal to Him.” 2 Chronicles 16:9   The promise of 2 Chronicles 16:9 is quietly powerful. It reminds us that we do not begin this day unseen,Continue reading “Prospering in All Things by Trusting the God Who Sees”

当我们进入今天祷告、经文与默想的节奏时，我诚挚地邀请你停下脚步，记住一件事：属灵操练并不是沉重的负担，而是恩典的途径，是上帝亲自设立、为要吸引我们更亲近祂的方式。无论你是在清晨、午间，还是在夜晚阅读这些文字，这些灵修都愿成为你信仰旅程中的温柔陪伴，引导你在每一个时刻更深地察觉上帝的同在。 今天的灵修从一天的开始走向结束，带领我们的心灵经历信靠、真理、记念、更新、悔改与安息。这些反思彼此呼应，形成一条属灵的轨迹，正如我们真实的日常生活——从忧虑出发，经过挣扎与领悟，最终安息在上帝的信实之中。请你不要急着读完，而是将这些篇章视为安静聆听的时刻，在平凡的时间里与神相遇。 一天从《信靠那鉴察人心的神，在凡事上得以兴盛——清晨默想》开始。这篇晨间灵修以历代志下16章9节为中心，邀请你将焦虑与纷乱的思绪带到主面前，帮助你明白，真正的兴盛不是外在的成功，而是一颗对准上帝、安稳在祂看顾中的心。 接着，《当真理从言语进入自由——耶稣生命中的一天》引导我们默想约翰福音8章32节，思考真理如何不只是被理解，而是被接纳、被相信，并在生命中被实行。它鼓励你思想：今天，上帝希望在哪一方面将祂的真理更深地落实在你的生命中。 中午时分，《战后竖立旌旗——一年一遍圣经》带我们回到出埃及记17章，默想摩西为耶和华筑坛的意义。这篇灵修提醒我们，在蒙拯救之后仍要以感恩回应，并反思我们生命中高举的究竟是什么样的“旌旗”。 随后，《当门关闭，恩典开启——再想一想》借着约翰福音3章1至17节，温柔地谈论失去、自我放下，以及在基督里重新开始的盼望。 傍晚，《当羞愧伪装成谦卑——你知道吗》透过犹大与彼得的对比，帮助我们分辨懊悔与悔改的不同，指出紧抓罪疚如何削弱恩典，而降服却带来医治与更新。 一天最后以《安息在那永不放手的手中——夜晚默想》结束，邀请你放下自责与评断，安然歇息在“在基督里被上帝接纳”的确据之中。 愿今天的属灵操练，不是你需要完成的任务，而是上帝塑造你心灵的圣洁空间。 牧师 Hogg FEEL FREE TO COMMENT, SUBSCRIBE, AND REPOST, SO OTHERS MAY KNOW  

As the Day Ends “I give thanks to You, Lord, for You are good. Your love endures forever.” Psalm 136:1 As the day draws to a close, Psalm 136 invites us into a rhythm older than our worries and steadier than our circumstances: thanksgiving grounded in the enduring love of God.

DID YOU KNOW Did you know vigilance is rarely tested when life is calm, but almost always revealed when pressure exposes our limits?

Israel atContinue reading “When Obedience Brings You to the Edge”
