Proverbs 15:24 NLT

[24] The path of life leads upward for the wise; they leave the grave behind.

1 - Life is a journey. Which path will you choose?

Jeremiah 6:16 NLT

[16] This is what the LORD says: "Stop at the crossroads and look around. Ask for the old, godly way, and walk in it. Travel its path, and you will find rest for your souls. But you reply, 'No, that's not the road we want!'

2 - Upward paths have downward rivers

Psalm 65:11 NLT

[11] You crown the year with a bountiful harvest; even the hard pathways overflow with abundance.

3 - Jesus is the entrance to the path of life

Isaiah 53:5-6 NLT

[5] But he was pierced for our rebellion, crushed for our sins. He was beaten so we could be whole. He was whipped so we could be healed. [6] All of us, like sheep, have strayed away. We have left God's paths to follow our own. Yet the LORD laid on him the sins of us all.

Paths

道路

Part 2 - Staying on the path of life

第二部分 - 留在生命的道路上

Proverbs 4:25-27 NLT

[25] Look straight ahead, and fix your eyes on what lies before you. [26] Mark out a straight path for your feet; stay on the safe path. [27] Don't get sidetracked; keep your feet from following evil.

箴言‬ ‭4:25-27‬ ‭RCUV‬‬

[25] 你的兩眼要向前看，你的雙目直視前方。

[26] 要修平你腳下的路，你一切的道就必穩固。

[27] 不可偏左偏右，你的腳要離開邪惡。

1 - Gods Word keeps us on the path of life

1 - 神的話使我們走在生命的道路上

Psalm 119:105 NLT

[105] Your word is a lamp to guide my feet and a light for my path.

詩篇‬ ‭119:105‬ ‭RCUV‬‬

[105] 你的話是我腳前的燈， 是我路上的光。

2 - Grace keeps us on the path of life

2 - 恩典使我們走在生命的道路上

Romans 9:31-33 NLT

[31] But the people of Israel, who tried so hard to get right with God by keeping the law, never succeeded. [32] Why not? Because they were trying to get right with God by keeping the law instead of by trusting in him. They stumbled over the great rock in their path. [33] God warned them of this in the Scriptures when he said, "I am placing a stone in Jerusalem that makes people stumble, a rock that makes them fall. But anyone who trusts in him will never be disgraced."

羅馬書‬ ‭9:31-33‬ ‭RCUV

[31] 但以色列人追求律法的義，反而達不到律法的義。[32] 這是甚麼緣故呢？是因為他們不憑著信心，而是憑著行為，他們正跌在那絆腳石上。[33] 就如經上所記：「我在錫安放一塊絆腳的石頭，使人跌倒的磐石；信靠他的人必不蒙羞。」‬‬

3 - A clean heart keeps us on the path of life

3 - 清潔的心使我們走在生命的道路上

Psalm 139:24 NLT

[24] Point out anything in me that offends you, and lead me along the path of everlasting life.

詩篇‬ ‭139:24‬ ‭RCUV

[24] 看在我裏面有甚麼惡行沒有， 引導我走永生的道路。‬‬

*The 4 Faith Guys*

四個信實的朋友

(Luke 5:17-26) One day Jesus was teaching, and Pharisees and teachers of the law were sitting there. They had come from every village of Galilee and from Judea and Jerusalem. And the power of the Lord was with Jesus to heal the sick. (18) Some men came carrying a paralyzed man on a mat and tried to take him into the house to lay him before Jesus. (19) When they could not find a way to do this because of the crowd, they went up on the roof and lowered him on his mat through the tiles into the middle of the crowd, right in front of Jesus. (20) When Jesus saw their faith, he said, “Friend, your sins are forgiven.” (21) The Pharisees and the teachers of the law began thinking to themselves, “Who is this fellow who speaks blasphemy? Who can forgive sins but God alone?” (22) Jesus knew what they were thinking and asked, “Why are you thinking these things in your hearts? (23) Which is easier: to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Get up and walk’? (24) But I want you to know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins.” So he said to the paralyzed man, “I tell you, get up, take your mat and go home.” (25) Immediately he stood up in front of them, took what he had been lying on and went home praising God. (26) Everyone was amazed and gave praise to God. They were filled with awe and said, “We have seen remarkable things today.”

路加福音 5:17-26 RCUV

17有一天，耶穌教導人，有法利賽人和律法教師在旁邊坐着；他們是從加利利各鄉村、猶太和耶路撒冷來的。主的能力與耶穌同在，使他能治好病人。

18這時，有些人用褥子抬着一個癱子，要把他抬進去放在耶穌面前，

19卻因人多，找不出法子抬進去，就上了房頂，從瓦間把他連褥子縋到當中，在耶穌面前。

20耶穌見他們的信心，就說：「朋友，你的罪赦了。」

21文士和法利賽人就開始議論說：「這個人是誰，竟說褻瀆的話？除了上帝一位之外，誰能赦罪呢？」

22耶穌知道他們所議論的，就回答他們說：「你們心裏為甚麼議論呢？

23說『你的罪赦了』，或說『你起來行走』，哪一樣容易呢？

24但要讓你們知道，人子在地上有赦罪的權柄。」他就對癱子說：「我吩咐你，起來！拿你的褥子回家去吧。」

25那人當着眾人面前立刻起來，拿了他所躺臥的褥子回家去，歸榮耀給上帝。

26眾人都驚奇，也歸榮耀給上帝，並且滿心懼怕，說：「我們今日看見不尋常的事了！」

(Luke 10:29) But he wanted to justify himself, so he asked Jesus, “And who is my neighbor?”

(Luke 10:30) In reply Jesus said: “A man was going down from Jerusalem to Jericho, when he was attacked by robbers. They stripped him of his clothes, beat him and went away, leaving him half dead.

(John 10:10) The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.

1. A Priest Happened To Be Going Down… (Crowd’s Response : Yay! Yes! … Oh No!)

(Luke 10:31) A priest happened to be going down the same road, and when he saw the man, he passed by on the other side.

2. So too a Levite …. (crowd’s response: yay! Yes! …. Oh no!)

(Luke 10:32) So too, a Levite, when he came to the place and saw him, passed by on the other side.

3.…But a Samaritan (crowd’s response no! no! ….Oh I get it!)

(Luke 10:33-35) But a Samaritan, as he traveled, came where the man was; and when he saw him, he took pity on him. (34) He went to him and bandaged his wounds, pouring on oil and wine. Then he put the man on his own donkey, brought him to an inn and took care of him. (35) The next day he took out two denarii and gave them to the innkeeper. ‘Look after him,’ he said, ‘and when I return, I will reimburse you for any extra expense you may have.’

(Luke 10:36-37) “Which of these three do you think was a neighbor to the man who fell into the hands of robbers?” (37) The expert in the law replied, “The one who had mercy on him.” Jesus told him, “Go and do likewise.”

(Proverbs 11:24 MSG) The world of the generous gets larger and larger; the world of the stingy gets smaller and smaller.

路加福音 10章29節（CUV) 那 人 要 顯 明 自 己 有 理 、 就 對 耶 穌 說 、 誰 是 我 的 鄰 舍 呢 。

路加福音 10章30節（CUV) 耶 穌 回 答 說 、 有 一 個 人 從 耶 路 撒 冷 下 耶 利 哥 去 、 落 在 強 盜 手 中 、 他 們 剝 去 他 的 衣 裳 、 把 他 打 個 半 死 、 就 丟 下 他 走 了 。

約翰福音10章10節（CUV) 盜 賊 來 、 無 非 要 偷 竊 、 殺 害 、 毀 壞 ． 我 來 了 、 是 要 叫 羊 得 生 命 、 並 且 得 的 更 豐 盛 。

1. 一個從這條路下來的祭司….（人們回應：好呀！…不好了！）

路加福音 10章31節（CUV) 偶 然 有 一 個 祭 司 、 從 這 條 路 下 來 ． 看 見 他 就 從 那 邊 過 去 了 。

2. 一個利未人同樣地…. （人們回應：好呀！…不好了！）

路加福音 10章32節（CUV) 又 有 一 個 利 未 人 、 來 到 這 地 方 、 看 見 他 、 也 照 樣 從 那 邊 過 去 了 。

3.…但是一個撒瑪利亞人 （人們回應：不好了！… 我明白了！）

路加福音 10章33-35節（CUV) 惟 有 一 個 撒 瑪 利 亞 人 、 行 路 來 到 那 裡 ． 看 見 他 就 動 了 慈 心 、 上 前 用 油 和 酒 倒 在 他 的 傷 處 、 包 裹 好 了 、 扶 他 騎 上 自 己 的 牲 口 、 帶 到 店 裡 去 照 應 他 。第 二 天 拿 出 二 錢 銀 子 來 、 交 給 店 主 說 、 你 且 照 應 他 ． 此 外 所 費 用 的 、 我 回 來 必 還 你 。

路加福音 10章36-37節（CUV) 你 想 這 三 個 人 、 那 一 個 是 落 在 強 盜 手 中 的 鄰 舍 呢他 說 、 是 憐 憫 他 的 。 耶 穌 說 、 你 去 照 樣 行 罷 。

箴言11章24節（CUV) 有 施 散 的 、 卻 更 增 添 ． 有 吝 惜 過 度 的 、 反 致 窮 乏 。

John‬ ‭16:33‬ ‭NLT‬‬

I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world.

Daniel‬ ‭6:3, 6-7, 10‬ ‭GW‬‬

This man, Daniel, distinguished himself among the other officials and satraps because there was an extraordinary spirit in him. The king thought about putting him in charge of the whole kingdom. So these officials and satraps went to the king as a group. They said to him, “May King Darius live forever! All the officials, governors, satraps, advisers, and mayors agree that the king should make a statute and enforce a decree. The decree should state that for the next 30 days whoever asks for anything from any god or person except you, Your Majesty, will be thrown into a lions’ den.

When Daniel learned that the document had been signed, he went to his house. An upper room in his house had windows that opened in the direction of Jerusalem. Three times each day he got down on his knees and prayed to his God. He had always praised God this way.

1. Choose to fight a good fight

1 Timothy‬ ‭6:12‬ ‭GW‬‬ Fight the good fight for the Christian faith. Take hold of everlasting life to which you were called and about which you made a good testimony in front of many witnesses.

2. Choose to listen to the right voices

Matthew‬ ‭26:36‬ ‭GW‬‬ Then Jesus went with the disciples to a place called Gethsemane. He said to them, “Stay here while I go over there and pray.”

Romans‬ ‭8:31‬ ‭GW‬‬ What can we say about all of this? If God is for us, who can be against us?

3. Choose to make a joyful noise to the Lord

Psalms‬ ‭95:1-2‬ ‭KJV O come, let us sing unto the Lord: let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation. Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms.

Matthew 14:22-33 NLT

[22] Immediately after this, Jesus insisted that his disciples get back into the boat and cross to the other side of the lake, while he sent the people home. [23] After sending them home, he went up into the hills by himself to pray. Night fell while he was there alone. [24] Meanwhile, the disciples were in trouble far away from land, for a strong wind had risen, and they were fighting heavy waves. [25] About three o’clock in the morning Jesus came toward them, walking on the water. [26] When the disciples saw him walking on the water, they were terrified. In their fear, they cried out, “It’s a ghost!”[27] But Jesus spoke to them at once. “Don’t be afraid,” he said. “Take courage. I am here!” [28] Then Peter called to him, “Lord, if it’s really you, tell me to come to you, walking on the water.” [29] “Yes, come,” Jesus said. So Peter went over the side of the boat and walked on the water toward Jesus. [30] But when he saw the strong wind and the waves, he was terrified and began to sink. “Save me, Lord!” he shouted. [31] Jesus immediately reached out and grabbed him. “You have so little faith,” Jesus said. “Why did you doubt me?” [32] When they climbed back into the boat, the wind stopped. [33] Then the disciples worshiped him. “You really are the Son of God!” they exclaimed.

1 – Understand the wind and the waves

2 – Be ready for the call to the impossible

3 – Step out in faith with eyes on Jesus

馬太福音 14:22-33 RCUV

[22] 耶穌隨即催門徒上船，先渡到對岸，等他叫眾人散去。[23] 疏散了眾人以後，他獨自上山去禱告。到了晚上，只有他一人在那裏。[24] 那時船已離岸好幾里，因風不順，被浪顛簸。[25] 天快亮的時候，耶穌在海面上走，往門徒那裏去。[26] 但門徒看見他在海面上走，就驚慌了，說：「是個鬼怪！」他們害怕得喊叫起來。[27] 耶穌連忙對他們說：「放心！是我，不要怕！」[28] 彼得回答他說：「主啊，如果是你，請叫我從水面上走到你那裏去。」[29] 耶穌說：「你來吧！」 彼得 就從船上下去，在水面上走，往耶穌那裏去；[30] 只因見風很強 ，害怕起來，將要沉下去，就喊著說：「主啊，救我！」[31] 耶穌立刻伸手拉住他，說：「你這小信的人哪，為甚麼疑惑呢？」[32] 他們一上船，風就停了。[33] 在船上的人都拜他，說：「你真是上帝的兒子。」

1 – 明白風和浪

2 – 準備好被呼召往不可能的事

3 - 定晴於主，憑信心踏出去

‭‭Daniel‬ ‭6:3-4‬ ‭KJV‬‬

Then this Daniel was preferred above the presidents and princes, because an excellent spirit was in him; and the king thought to set him over the whole realm. Then the presidents and princes sought to find occasion against Daniel concerning the kingdom; but they could find none occasion nor fault; for as much as he was faithful, neither was there any error or fault found in him.

1 – An excellent spirit is an outward sign of an inward spirit

Daniel‬ ‭1:8‬ ‭NLT‬‬

But Daniel was determined not to defile himself by eating the food and wine given to them by the king. He asked the chief of staff for permission not to eat these unacceptable foods.

2 – An excellent spirit is seen by the way you choose your friends

1 Corinthians 15：33 The Message

33 But don’t fool yourselves. Don’t let yourselves be poisoned by this anti-resurrection loose talk. “Bad company ruins good manners.”

Psalm 101：3 NKJV

3 I will set nothing wicked before my eyes; I hate the work of those who fall away; It shall not cling to me

3 – An excellent spirit chooses to trust God no matter what

Daniel‬ ‭6:23‬ ‭NIV‬‬

The king was overjoyed and gave orders to lift Daniel out of the den. And when Daniel was lifted from the den, no wound was found on him, because he had trusted in his God.

但以理書 6章3-4節（NCV)

3 因為但以理裡面有美好的靈性，所以各方面都比其他的監察司和總督優勝；王有意立他治理全國。4 於是這些監察司和總督在但以理治國的事上，尋找把柄控告他，只是不能找到任何的把柄和過失，因為他忠心可靠，他們找不到他的任何錯誤和過失。

1 – 優良態度是由心發出

但以理書 1章8節（CUV)

但以理卻立志、不以王的膳、和王所飲的酒、玷污自己、所以求太監長容他不玷污自己。

2 – 優良態度是由你選擇的朋友以定

歌林多前書 15章33節（NCV)

你們不要自欺，“濫交朋友是會敗壞品德的。”

詩篇 101章3節（NCV)

邪惡的事，我都不擺在眼前；離開正路的人所作的事，我都恨惡，決不容這些沾染我。

3 – 優良態度在任何時候也去選擇相信神

但以理書 6章23節（NCV)

王就非常高興，吩咐人把但以理從坑裡拉上來。於是但以理從坑裡被拉上來，他身上一點損傷也沒有，因為他信靠他的神。

John 4:45-53

When he arrived in Galilee, the Galileans welcomed him. They had seen all that he had done in Jerusalem at the Passover Festival, for they also had been there. (46) Once more he visited Cana in Galilee, where he had turned the water into wine. And there was a certain royal official whose son lay sick at Capernaum. (47) When this man heard that Jesus had arrived in Galilee from Judea, he went to him and begged him to come and heal his son, who was close to death. (48) “Unless you people see signs and wonders,” Jesus told him, “you will never believe.” (49) The royal official said, “Sir, come down before my child dies.” (50) “Go,” Jesus replied, “your son will live.” The man took Jesus at his word and departed. (51) While he was still on the way, his servants met him with the news that his boy was living. (52) When he inquired as to the time when his son got better, they said to him, “Yesterday, at one in the afternoon, the fever left him.” (53) Then the father realized that this was the exact time at which Jesus had said to him, “Your son will live.” So he and his whole household believed.

1. A Sick Boy

2. A Desperate Dad

Matthew 7:7 Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.

3. Jesus: A powerful Saviour

Matthew 9:12

On hearing this, Jesus said, it is not the healthy who need a doctor, but the sick.

But there was no healing without father’s journey – what are we praying for?

約翰福音 4:45:53

耶穌到了加利利的時候，加利利人都歡迎他，因為他們曾經上耶路撒冷去過節，見過他所行的一切。(46) 耶穌又到了加利利的迦拿，就是他變水為酒的地方。有一個大臣，他的兒子在迦百農患病。(47) 他聽見耶穌從猶太到了加利利，就來見他，求他下去醫治他的兒子，因為他的兒子快要死了。(48) 耶穌對他說：「你們若看不見神蹟奇事，總是不肯信。」(49) 大臣說：「先生，求你趁我的孩子還沒有死就下去吧！」(50) 耶穌告訴他：「回去吧，你的兒子好了。」那人信耶穌對他說的話，就回去了。(51) 正下去的時候，他的僕人迎著他走來，說他的孩子好了。(52) 他就向僕人查問孩子是甚麼時候好轉的。他們告訴他：「昨天下午一點鐘，熱就退了。」(53) 這父親就知道，那正是耶穌告訴他你的兒子好了的時候，他自己和全家就信了。

1. 患病男孩

2. 焦慮父親

馬太福音7:7

你們祈求，就給你們；尋找，就尋見；叩門，就給你們開門。

3. 耶穌: 有能力的救主

馬太福音 9:12

耶穌聽見了，就說：「健康的人不需要醫生，有病的人才需要…」

但若沒有經過父親的行動，醫治也不會發生 – 我們祈求的是甚麼？
