0401 我的恩典必給你勇氣
我對你的愛永不會留下你毫無防備，因此，不要把目光定睛在信心的仇敵身上，因為他們必跌倒失敗。你必帶着新的勇氣興起，並且時刻以我同在的真實為宴享。因為你真正的安慰與喜樂，不僅在於我賜給你的勝利，更在於你知道你是屬於我。我的恩典必滿溢你，使你大有膽量，賜你能力，使你儘管你眼前所見，仍能向前邁進。這是你必須親自領受的禮物。
我不僅是你的同伴，在你每一個當下，我必是你的力量和恩典。沒有任何事能攔阻我潔凈你，並以我的恩典賦予你權能。即使在你的軟弱中，我也要使用你，把醫治帶給你周圍的人。仰望我，盼望我；將你一切的期望都放在我身上，我必不使你失望。緊緊抓住你裡面深處的永生，那生命的能力就會透過你流淌出來。
撒迦利亞被聖靈充滿，甚至滿溢，就預言說：“當讚美那被高舉的以色列之主上帝，因為祂恩典的眼目眷顧了我們，並且祂作為我們的英雄之神來到，要釋放我們！” ——路加福音 1:67-68
0401 My grace will give you courage.
My love for you will never leave you defenseless. So do not set your gaze on the enemies of faith, for they will stumble and fall. You will rise with fresh courage and feast upon the reality of my presence at all times. For your true comfort and joy is not merely in the victory I give you, but in the knowledge that you are mine. My grace will flood you with bold courage, giving you the ability to move forward in spite of what you see. This is the gift you must take for yourself.
More than a companion to you, I will be strength and grace in your every moment. Not one thing will keep me from cleansing you and empowering you in my grace. I will use you even in your weakness to bring healing to those around you. Look to me and hope in me. Place all your expectation in me, and I will never disappoint you. Lay hold of eternal life deep within you, and the power of that life will flow through you.
Zechariah was filled to overflowing with the Holy Spirit and he prophesied, saying: “Praise be to the exalted Lord God of Israel, for he has seen us through eyes of grace, and he comes as our Hero-God to set us free!” — LUKE 1:67-68
