Introduction

Today is a very good experiment. Let's test if you can truly discern good and evil. Do you think I, as a pastor, am unaware of the time being dragged on? I am deliberately prolonging it. Among us, is there anyone who asks themselves about their inner state? Are you trying to teach me how to be a pastor? If you are trying to teach me, then you are merely someone who discerns good and evil, just appearing to be a good person.

Today, I can say that it's not that you don't discern good and evil, but that no one has lanced your boil, and the filth has not been released. If you wander into the wilderness with this attitude, you will surely die in the wilderness like the Israelites. When the Israelites wandered in the wilderness and God said to set up camp, the Israelites would ask, What for? The essence of the flesh then emerges. I often use various methods to test everyone, just like this.

We have pastors providing commentary, practically giving a minor sermon. Today, pastors are both testifying and preaching. Everyone is still waiting for the sermon. I am edified listening to it; why aren't you? Today, ask yourself if you are someone who discerns good and evil. Start to thoroughly deal with the discernment of good and evil.

It is impossible for someone who discerns good and evil to be good. Don't think I haven't warned you; I often use various methods to test you. If I want to use someone, I will surely test them, and I will surely deal with the carnal things within them. Today's topic is Dealing with Carnal Vices. People who are carnal will have a series of reactions.

I ministered to someone a few days ago, and she cried for over an hour. Her pastor had been ministering for almost two hours and was still talking. If every ministry session were like this, where would the efficiency be? I noticed she was the only one crying, so I said, Give me the phone; I will minister. If you are a carnal person, you will wonder what is happening, but if you are a spiritual person, you will find it very effective.

Our pastors comfort from the left and comfort from the right; this is not the way to do it. This is a carnal vice. How do you deal with carnal vices? You need theology! If you can't learn, then study the Book of Numbers carefully. The Book of Numbers is about trials. I took the phone and communicated with her:

What's wrong? Did your mother die?
No, she already died.
Are you sleeping on the streets?
No.
Do you owe money?
No.

Two years ago, owing money was impossible; two years later, no debts, not sleeping on the streets, what are you crying about? People are strange. Today, I am clearly stating the topic: what a person needs to deal with in their life is not anything else, but themselves. Today, you need to deal with yourself, including the testimonies just shared. Many people were waiting for me to preach. No matter what, it's crucial to know that being edified is very important; everything can edify us.

Our lifelong problem is ourselves. I scolded this sister, like a child who falls, just gets up, and wants to cry. Does that sound reasonable? It's not reasonable. A person's life of dealing with the flesh is closely related to pastoring. I deeply understand that the most important thing for someone to grow is not casting out demons, but dealing with the person's flesh.

I scolded the sister, and she stopped crying. She stopped crying, but the problem wasn't solved. What was she crying about earlier? She couldn't even explain it. Why is this happening? As you listen, you might find yourselves relating, perhaps you are also like this.

Pick up things, learn, grow. The pastor just said to grow! Seeing a two-hundred-page book, you wonder when you'll ever finish it. You're afraid before you even start reading it. You open the first page and start judging it. You look at it, it looks at you. Three hours pass, and you're still in Genesis chapter one. You look at the clock, feel tired, and go to the refrigerator to get something to eat. Then you look at Genesis again, fall asleep. You wake up and realize nothing has been done, and you feel bad.

The Spirit and the Flesh in Conflict

There is a force inside people that prevents you from growing. If you can't overcome it, it will be very difficult. That thing is the flesh. I have discovered a very interesting phenomenon: many things cannot be done through casting out demons. As soon as you cast out the demon, the thing says, I am myself. There are two selves in a person's body: a spiritual self and a carnal self.

For example, this person is named Zhang San. Inside, there is a carnal Zhang San and a spiritual Zhang San. They fight every day. The spiritual wants to grow, and the carnal starts to obstruct you. It's not a battle between evil spirits and the Holy Spirit, but a battle between our inner spirit and flesh. That's why Paul wrote, Wretched man that I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death?

Today, every brother and sister faces this situation. We have many carnal vices inside that corrupt us. It's not necessarily a demon, but our carnal nature. For example, we say that impulse is a demon, and anger rises. Some of our pastors speak at length during testimonies, then stumble over their words. In northeastern terms, it's like letting out a long fart after a long time, making you anxious.

But this is good for testing how carnal vices are driven. I have already determined the carnal vices within some of you. Do you know how many carnal vices there are? Laziness, fear of difficulty, fault-finding. Many people's problems manifest in all aspects of their lives. According to my research, gynecological diseases in women are closely related to the flesh and the discernment of good and evil. People with severe menstrual pain definitely have a serious discernment of good and evil. Maybe you are an exception; there are exceptions to everything. This is an incomplete inductive method.

The human body indulges the flesh, which is reflected in all aspects of a person's carnal nature. I have divided it into three categories: indulging the flesh, discerning good and evil, and loving the world! If these three things happen to a person, it's basically spiritual cancer, and spiritual cancer will manifest as physical cancer! If there are cancer patients in your family, or many cancer patients in your family, and many cancer patients around you, then be careful, because behind cancer are actually these three things! We often feel that we are very good, but what are you relying on? There's really nothing to rely on. If it's not the word of God, then it's very dangerous!

We have problems with indulging the flesh, which is consistent with the testimonies shared today! The testimonies shared by our brothers and sisters today are all about dealing with the flesh and with carnal desires. For example, in the church, especially Westerners, Westerners have Western habits! Many of our brothers and sisters strongly identify with Western culture. But in Western churches, many Western things are naturally ingrained! They value time and have high expectations! But with me, that doesn't work!

A few days ago, a sister told me, I take care of my mother, but it can't affect my married life! I found that very interesting! How is it possible that it doesn't affect it? People take these things for granted, because affecting their married life affects their home! It's impossible not to affect it. My mother was there before I married my wife! Where would I be without my mother? But she doesn't think that way. Some Western cultures are terrible, very selfish cultures!

Of course, selfishness is also fair. Sons treat their fathers the same way, and grandsons treat their sons the same way! They deal with each other generation after generation! But in my heart, I don't have Western or Eastern culture. What we have is God's culture! I think no words are better than God's words!

Honoring parents is our duty. If we discern good and evil with our parents, we violate the Ten Commandments! The Ten Commandments in the Bible are the most basic requirements! There can be no lower requirements, but many people's understanding of honoring parents is insufficient. Some people say, I married you, but I didn't marry your mother. This sounds right.

But when you married her, her mother already existed, especially for those born in the 80s, who are mostly only children. When you marry her, you have to marry her mother! They are connected. Why do people say this? Because they indulge the flesh, afraid of the flesh suffering! This requires paying a price, it will affect your life.

Today, we really need to pat our chests and ask ourselves if we are following Western, Eastern, or Indian culture, or are we following the word of God? It's crucial to know that honoring parents is a very important key in the Ten Commandments, it cannot be separated! So among our brothers and sisters, if your children are among us, I want to be someone who honors parents.

I am never ambiguous about the elderly! It's not because my wife tells me to honor my parents or not, but because God's word says so. Honoring my parents is really hard work! My flesh doesn't like honoring parents, but I do it according to God's word. In a person's life, we need to know for sure that God's word does not please our flesh.

A few days ago, I received a mother and daughter. When I was sending them back. I told the sister, When you get back, pay attention to how your mother sees how I received her this time. Because when her mother came, I scolded her a lot, fixing those carnal vices on her! I said, This time, her mother should have received a lot! As a result, the sister made a face and said, Not necessarily, I'll slowly understand when she gets back!

I was thinking that these people have believed in the Lord for more than a year or two, but the bad habits they have acquired in traditional churches cannot be removed in a day or two, because these people are basically spiritually blind. Don't think they read the Bible. They read it, they listen to my sermons, sometimes they think I preach well, sometimes they agree, and sometimes they don't!

A spiritually blind person doesn't know that in her mother's body, there is a spiritual Zhang San and a carnal Zhang San. She doesn't know there are two, one carnal and one spiritual. Let me tell you, what I do has one characteristic: her carnal self, that carnal person does not like what I do, but the spiritual person likes what I do very much. That is to say, the carnal and the spiritual are fighting in one person, like twins, things that are inherent, these are very deadly.

That is to say, when we listen to people speak, Oh, I hate this Teacher Liu the most! Then you listen, and you get annoyed! This is actually very normal, because her carnal person definitely doesn't like it, but that doesn't represent everything. It absolutely doesn't represent everything. Because sometimes the spiritual person is speaking, and sometimes the carnal person is speaking. But when I look, I know which thing is speaking. The reason I do this is because her spiritual person likes me, and her carnal person dislikes me, and hates me, like having a split personality.

If people want to solve problems, they must deal with carnal vices. For example, a lazy person gets up in the morning, sees that they have to study, and says, Everything hurts except my hair. When it hurts, they stretch, make a cup of coffee, go to the refrigerator to get some fruit to eat, and just mess around until 3 pm. The work hasn't started, and they feel fine, so they continue to browse Douyin and Toutiao.

They browse until 6 pm, then go to dinner. After eating, they say, I'm going to study hard tonight. When they look, everything hurts except their hair, so they browse for a while. They look at the time, it's 12 am. They see someone contacting them on WeChat, and they start chatting. As a result, the whole day is spent in a tangle, nothing has been done. This is a carnal person.

We need to understand the most important lesson in life, is it living according to the flesh or living according to the Holy Spirit? Are you a carnal person or a spiritual person? The next day, they sleep until noon. Yesterday, the past week, nothing was done, so they feel tangled and uncomfortable. A carnal person is definitely very uncomfortable, because there are many carnal vices. Our brothers and sisters need to start discerning which is the carnal self and which is the spiritual self.

Scripture

Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from the law of sin and death. For what the law was powerless to do because it was weakened by the flesh, God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh to be a sin offering. And so he condemned sin in the flesh, in order that the righteous requirement of the law might be fully met in us, who do not live according to the flesh but according to the Spirit. Those who live according to the flesh have their minds set on what the flesh desires; but those who live according to the Spirit have their minds set on what the Spirit desires. The mind governed by the flesh is death, but the mind governed by the Spirit is life and peace. The mind governed by the flesh is hostile to God; it does not submit to God’s law, nor can it do so. Those who are in the realm of the flesh cannot please God. You, however, are not in the realm of the flesh but are in the realm of the Spirit, if indeed the Spirit of God lives in you. And if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, they do not belong to Christ. But if Christ is in you, then even though your body is subject to death because of sin, the Spirit gives life because of righteousness. And if the Spirit of him who raised Jesus from the dead is living in you, he who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit, who lives in you. Therefore, brothers and sisters, we have an obligation—but it is not to the flesh, to live according to it. For if you live according to the flesh, you will die; but if by the Spirit you put to death the misdeeds of the body, you will live. For those who are led by the Spirit of God are the children of God. (Romans 8:1-14)

Prayer

Lord, we are really struggling inside. Today, we ask that Your Holy Spirit work in us, to help us put to death the misdeeds of the body. Lord, may we live according to Your will, may we live out Your likeness. Lord, work a work of revelation in our hearts today, let us know which are the evil habits of our body. Lord, work in us today, may You personally accomplish this. We are willing to trust in You, to put to death the misdeeds of the body through You. Reveal to us today, in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen!

Indulging the Flesh is Enmity with God

Previously, we talked about The Knowledge of God's Glory, I had heard of you by the grapevine, but now my eye sees you - many among us know God through rumors. If you have not suffered in the flesh, you know God through rumors. If you indulge the flesh, you still know God through rumors. If we are willing to deal with carnal vices, we will enter the door of obeying the Holy Spirit. If we are not obeying the Holy Spirit, we are not sons of God. Today we must begin to carefully consider whether we are entering the door of killing the deeds of the body, or the door of indulging the flesh. If a person relies on the flesh, they will die; if they rely on the Holy Spirit, they will live.

Among us, there is a group of people, many of whom have a fear of difficulties, and retreat when they encounter difficulties, or become decadent. What should we do when we encounter difficulties? Do we obey the flesh or the Holy Spirit? What does it mean to obey the Holy Spirit? This is a very confusing thing, how can I be pleasing to the Holy Spirit? To be pleasing to the Holy Spirit is life and peace, to be pleasing to the flesh is enmity with God.

The brother who testified today likes to play computer games, and later the pastor pushed him to run deliveries, which consumed a lot of physical strength, and the performance will grow. We also have a sister who, when dealing with carnal problems, the orders came in. Is this a coincidence? When we read the Bible, we find that, if indulging the flesh is enmity with God, there is no way to please God. Once we start dealing with indulging the flesh.

Fear of difficulties is basically laziness. Lazy people feel that there is a lot of work as soon as they see it. Yesterday, I saw a sister, a photo sent over, and I saw that her home was in a terrible mess, because she used the way of indulging the flesh to raise children, so the children would not clean up. Children who indulge the flesh become very stupid, and those who do not indulge the flesh like to work, to deal with their own laziness. In fact, there is not much work at all, but for a lazy person, it feels like there is a lot of work, so they don't clean up, and the more they don't clean up, the less they want to clean up, and it becomes more chaotic.

In fact, not only is the house messy, but people's hearts are also chaotic. People cannot please God when they indulge the flesh, they are at enmity with God. We do some physically demanding things, not because the thing is good, but because that thing can deal with the laziness inside us. Why are people addicted? Because there is a carnal self in people.

So today brothers and sisters must know that not being blessed is because people indulge the flesh. We clean up our home actually to deal with the flesh on our body. If we are learning something new, if there is not a state of relying on the Holy Spirit and believing in faith that I will definitely be victorious, if we follow the flesh, there will be a fear of difficulties. Many of us have this fear of difficulties. We must begin to deal with the evil habits of our flesh today, that is what I am going to talk about today.

Knowing Your Problems in Understanding

The scriptures say:

Now the works of the flesh are evident: sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions, divisions, envy, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. (Galatians 5:19-21)

First, you must know in your understanding that you have this bad habit. We often talk about the illumination of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit actually illuminates us through the environment. For example, Job, how did Job know God? It was through a very difficult process that he concluded that he had heard of God, but now he saw God with his own eyes. In fact, the difficulties we encounter are all revelations from God.

For example, we may have some shortcomings, and these shortcomings will definitely bring serious side effects. You certainly know this. Once we know that we have such shortcomings, you must learn how to rely on the Holy Spirit. Relying on the Holy Spirit must first involve knowing your problems in your understanding. If a person does not know that he has problems and thinks that he is a perfect person, then you cannot grow, and you cannot solve any problems.

A very important concept is that we must know what the problem is. The environment will definitely let you see the problems in yourself. For example, some people get cancer, which is definitely a revelation. But how many people are willing to repent and deal with the carnal habits in themselves after getting cancer? In fact, very few. People with cancer think they are very good.

Many good people get cancer, why? In fact, good people work very hard. People think they are very good, and it is difficult to accept when many things happen. But if a person thinks he is just dung, many things are easy to accept and will reflect. But there is often a burst of anger in good people, and they still have to pretend to be good people on the surface. It is very troublesome if people do not know the problems in themselves.

If we want to edify a person in our pastoral work, we must expose the carnal habits of the person, so that he has to admit it even if he does not want to. Yesterday I had a conversation with one of my colleagues. He felt that I disagreed with everything he said and that it was difficult to communicate with me. In fact, we were not talking about the same thing. In fact, the exposure of the problem is an edification for him. We have invented many pastoral tools, which are designed to enable everyone to express their carnal habits.

For example, when I talk to people, carnal habits are revealed in the conversation. I catch them accurately and deal with them immediately. I think, ah, this is pastoral care. God is even more so. We are co-workers with God. We work with God. We follow what God wants to do, exposing people's carnal habits so that they cannot deny them.

If you ask me what God was doing with the Israelites in the wilderness, it was doing this, dealing with their carnal habits. Imagine, God instructs them to set up camp, and they set up camp. What are they doing? They don't know, they just go. Oh my goodness, can you imagine? All the belongings are packed in big bags and carried on their shoulders.

When we go out for tourism, the most annoying thing is the departure. A few days ago, I took people out for sightseeing, and he summed it up. Tourism is just getting on the bus to sleep, getting off the bus to pee, and not knowing anything when you get home. This rhyme is quite interesting. At that time, the Israelites were not traveling. Oh my, big bags and small bags, what for? Doing nothing, just walking. In that state, I would also think, what are we doing? What are we tossing about? Can we take a break? We have to toss, what for?

As a result, as they walked, it was difficult to walk in the wilderness. Can it not be difficult to walk in the wilderness? Pulling the old, carrying the young, and carrying an even younger one. Then the family's belongings are all taken, and there are some sheep and some cattle, making a chaotic noise. What are they doing? They are putting to death the habits of the flesh. As a result, the carnal habits of the Israelites were revealed again and again, complaining about this, complaining about that.

We do the same. We also deal with the habits of the flesh. Leaving homework and writing homework, recording and transcribing text, is to deal with the habits of the flesh. It is not okay to be lazy. The bad habits in people, again and again, let them be revealed, constantly revealed and constantly removed, this is called growth. How does the Holy Spirit do it? The Holy Spirit does it this way, in the Old Testament 《Bible》we see that God does it this way.

Relying on the Holy Spirit Through Faith

Therefore, once we know our problems, at this time, we enter through the Holy Spirit, and we succeed through the Holy Spirit. Relying on the Holy Spirit through faith, remember to always rely on the Holy Spirit through faith. It is difficult to work with God if people do not know what God is doing. If you do not know what I am doing, sometimes many people only know after I have finished doing it. Today, once we realize that we have the problem of laziness, we rely on the Holy Spirit, and our weaknesses are helped by the Holy Spirit.

Today I will teach you a method. In the beginning, reading hurts everywhere except the hair. What should I do if I feel uncomfortable? Start speaking in tongues and command the devil to retreat! Put to death the habits of my flesh! Put to death the habits of my flesh! Put to death the habits of my flesh! After five minutes, I came back and found that my head no longer hurt, and my body no longer hurt, so I continued to do it.

Then start cooperating with your pastor and tell your pastor that you need to deal with the habits of the flesh with your pastor. Once you are weak, quickly find your pastor to pray with you. Soon, the Holy Spirit will help us. The Holy Spirit's help is the source of our strength, so once there is a problem revealed in us, it is very uncomfortable. We must have discomfort in us.

Someone asked me how do I know that there is a problem inside? Can you not know if you feel uncomfortable inside? We have things like forming factions, complaining, causing disputes, creating problems, and hypocrisy. Many things are based on works. Why do some people collapse completely after serving? Because they serve based on the flesh, serving based on works. He feels good because he does well. We do not do well, but because we rely on faith.

Today, once we brothers and sisters do things with the help of the Holy Spirit, our weaknesses can be completely dealt with. Therefore, we learn to rely on the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words. And he who searches hearts knows what is the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints according to the will of God. The Holy Spirit prays for us in us, speaking all kinds of mysteries in the spirit, which is a very effective prayer. If your prayer in the spirit cannot keep up, you basically cannot be considered a spiritual person.

Therefore, a large amount of speaking in tongues is very beneficial, and the Holy Spirit will definitely illuminate you. If you know your problems in your understanding, I tell you that you can definitely overcome them by relying on the Holy Spirit. Today, among us, there are those who are daunted by difficulties, some who are troubled, uncomfortable, lazy, and weak. Our weakness will show the strength of God.

All Things Work Together for Good to Those Who Love God

Relying on the Holy Spirit and trusting in Him alone, we must know that all things work together for good to those who love God. If we are picky people, those with a history of cancer, high blood lipids, high blood sugar, and several highs have bad habits. This is not just for you, but also for me. Some people say, look, you have this problem, you have a fever, you are sick. I am not a role model of the righteous, I am a role model of sinners. Isn't it normal for me to have problems? Does God only deal with you and not with me? God deals with me thoroughly, don't worry.

We must know that all things work together for good to those who love God. Today, all things are not according to professional standards, but according to working together. Don't you know that God is in control? All things work together for good to those who love God. If anyone does not love the Lord, let that person be accursed! We should not think that today's testimony time is particularly long. Don't be picky. All things work together!

Read the 《Bible》to yourself. Today I challenge those who are picky. If you have a picky habit, the 《Bible》should be read to yourself, asking you to love your neighbor as yourself, not asking others to love you. If there is really love today, there will be no picky habits. We gradually find that cancer patients have picky habits. Do you want to risk getting cancer or put to death the habits of the flesh?

We must know that carnal habits are really deadly. All those who have problems with their reproductive organs are people who are very serious about discerning good and evil. We have served many people with menstrual problems and those who cannot have children, all of whom are very serious about discerning good and evil. Discerning good and evil comes from people's carnal habits, such as competition and jealousy, because they obey the reflections of the flesh, and the emotions inside are very strong. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control.

When we put to death the habits of the flesh step by step, many problems will be solved easily. In fact, you do not know these problems. Your problems are being revealed in every aspect of your life. Why does God hate the Pharisees the most? Because the Pharisees think they are righteous, thinking that paying tithes and keeping the Lord's Day will do something. What God wants is to do justice, love mercy, and walk humbly with your God.

Our carnal habits are a reason for our tragedies, so we must rely on the Holy Spirit to put to death the habits of the flesh. Isn't God in control today? Are we the ones who serve people? No, it is God who works with us. It is we who water, sow, and fertilize, but it is God who makes it grow.

Why discern good and evil, cater to the flesh, and be hostile to God? Do you have to wait until you bear the fruit of a curse before you are willing to repent? If it were me, I would rather not bear the fruit of a curse and prepare myself in advance. If you have seen cancer patients with your own eyes, they are very hard. Today, deal with our spiritual cancer, the habits of the flesh, deal with our inner pickiness, laziness, and basing everything on works. Everything that does not come from faith is sin. People with faith, God will definitely work with them.

The scripture says:

What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all, how will he not also with him graciously give us all things? Who shall bring any charge against God's elect? It is God who justifies. Who is to condemn? Christ Jesus is the one who died—more than that, who was raised—who is at the right hand of God, who indeed is interceding for us. (Romans 8:31-34)

Although we have carnal habits, no one can accuse us. As long as we are determined to obey the Holy Spirit and work with God, and let the Holy Spirit constantly deal with us, we will definitely be able to walk out a path. Although there is fear of difficulty, it is not terrible. You can definitely overcome it, because you are a person who relies on God. It is not because you have ability and strength, it is because you have faith, following the Holy Spirit, relying on our loving Lord Jesus, in all these things we are more than conquerors.

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? We did not cry when we were in debt. Why are we crying now? In the past, we were able to rely on the Holy Spirit to come to this day, and today we can rely on the Holy Spirit to go to tomorrow. We enter through the Holy Spirit, do we still rely on the flesh and ability to complete it? Some people feel that their ability is not good and they cannot do anything well, but aren't you still alive?

Putting to Death the Habits of the Flesh Through the Holy Spirit

Today, for those of us who have carnal habits, restore the hope inside, restore the faith inside! We must rely on our loving Lord! God loves us, not because we do well, but because we freely receive grace. Since we freely receive grace, then what qualifications do we have to comment on those who freely receive grace?

Who is a perfect person among us? If you are a picky person, put the pickiness on your own carnal habits. Reading the 《Bible》is for ourselves, but relying on our loving Lord, because each of us is a work in God's hands. What qualifications do we have to say: God, look, you have done so badly on this person. Can we see the future in faith? Even if it is a mentally retarded child, God will make him a prosperous person. If Lazarus can come out of the tomb, God can make him live. Is it impossible for us living people to overcome?

I have a great advantage, that is, I am a person of faith. You rarely find me being picky. There is a 15-year-old child among us who often plays computer games and talks nonsense. His mother said that he is always like this, but I never say that he is always like this. I said: Child, do you desire to grow inside? I will help you! When this child sees me, he sees hope. When the child sees what his mother says, he sees despair.

I believe that God will definitely restore the glory of God in this child. The 15-year-old child has recently sent his resume for an interview and started looking for a job to be a programmer. Why do we train this child? Because we have faith inside, because we know that God wants everyone to live out His glorious image.

We have bad habits. As long as we follow the Holy Spirit and constantly put to death the bad habits in us. We have faith, we know that God is dealing with the bad habits in us, so he has become what he is today. Constantly releasing and constantly dealing with, a big lump grew on my face a few days ago. Then I said to him: You have to start dealing with your worldly value system. Rebuild the value system on the word of God. He himself also said: I didn't know why I believed in the Lord before. But now I seem to understand, it seems that I have begun to understand these days, I know that believing in the Lord is an incomparably good thing.

I am very grateful, not only do I have faith in the child whose 5 plus 4 equals 8, but don't we have more faith in the brothers and sisters among us who are not 5 plus 4 equals 8, but equal to nine. Therefore, my service is very enjoyable. I never condemn people. I always serve everyone with hope and faith. Although some people disappoint me, it doesn't matter. In Jesus Christ, I know that God is in control.

Brothers and sisters, if you can understand my good intentions, you will know how good it is to be like me. You may say what's so good about it, but it doesn't matter. I encourage each of us to become dispensers of God's power with faith, to become a blessing to this generation, so that those who are close to you may receive grace through your service. This is my comfort.

One of our sisters, when she brought her mother to me, I really wanted to decline, it was too tiring. I just served online, because my job is to train more pastors, and I hope that thousands of pastors who are pleasing to God will be raised up to meet the needs of this generation. What we do is really commendable and can be criticized, but we are very clear that we are to work with God. Even if I do not do well, my God will definitely support me at the bottom. Even if I do wrong, my God will turn it into right. All things will definitely work together for good, I will rely on my loving Lord, and in all these things I am more than a conqueror.

Conclusion

God is in control, God is also in control in you and me, so we don't have to judge. We just start to say: God, I love you, I want to praise your glory, praise your grace and kindness. May the love of God inspire us to become a person who can serve God, inspire us to become a person who puts to death the habits of the flesh, obeys the Holy Spirit, and can become a blessing to this generation. Put to death the bad habits in me one by one. There is no lack of hope, but full of grace, full of hope, and full of faith.

As the scripture says:

No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 8:37-39)

Brothers and sisters, are you restarting your faith to deal with the habits of the flesh? Knowing in your heart that God has a good plan for us, He will personally accomplish this plan so that His glory may be manifested on us. Let us no longer rely on our own abilities when we encounter difficulties, but rely on the power of God, we can definitely overcome them! We are full of faith and hope, and we don't care about all the difficulties at all, that is the person of God. Follow the Holy Spirit with faith, put to death the habits of the flesh, and remove everything that corrupts our faith in us, that is, firmly believe that the good plan of God for us will be accomplished!

May God bless everyone!

今天是个非常好的试验,咱们就试试你到底有没有识别善恶。难道我做牧师不知道时间拖了吗?我就是故意拖。在咱们当中,有没有人问问自己里面是什么状态。你是不是要教我怎么做牧师啊?如果你要教的话,那你不过是一个识别善恶的人,只是平时看着像好人。 今天我可以说你不是不识别善恶,是没有人捅你的脓包,肮脏没有被释放出来。你如果带着这种态度到旷野里溜达一圈,你肯定跟以色列人一样死在旷野。以色列人在旷野溜达,神说起营,以色列老百姓就会说干啥呢?属肉体的本质就出来了,我常常用各种各样的办法来试验大家,就这么整。 我们当中有牧者点评,简直是讲了一场小道。今天牧者们一边作见证一边讲道。大家还在等着讲道。我听着都得造就,你听了怎么就不行呢?今天问问自己是不是识别善恶的人。开始彻底对付识别善恶。 人识别善恶不可能好,不要以为我没警告过大家,我常常用各种方法试验。如果我要使用一个人,我一定会试他,我也一定会对付他里面属肉体的东西。今天讲的题目就是《对付属肉体的恶习》,人属肉体会有一系列的反应。

我前几天服侍一个人,她哭了一个多小时了,她的牧者服侍快俩小时了还在那说。要是每个服侍都这么整,哪有效率啊?我就发现就她在哭,我说电话给我,我服侍。如果你是属肉体的人,你会觉得在干啥呢,如果你是属灵的人,你会发现很有效。 我们牧者左安慰右安慰,这事不是这么整的,这是属肉体的恶习。属肉体的恶习怎么整啊,得跟神学啊!如果学不会就好好读《民数记》。《民数记》就是折腾。我接过电话就和她沟通: “怎么了?你妈死了啊?” “没有,死过了。” “睡大街了吗?” “没有。” “欠人钱了吗?” “没有。” 两年前欠债什么都不行,两年后没欠债没睡大街,哭什么。人是很奇怪的事。我今天确切地把题目讲出来了,人一生要对付的不是别的,就是你自己。今天要对付的就是你自己。包括刚刚在讲见证肯定很多人心里在等我讲道,不管什么,要确切地知道使我们得造就很重要,什么事情都可以使我们得造就。 我们一生的问题就是我们自己。我把这姐妹训了一顿,就好比小孩跌倒了,刚刚站起来要哭,听起来合乎道理吗?不合理道理。人的一生对付肉体和牧养紧密相关,我深深的了解如果使人成长,最重要不是赶鬼,最重要最重要是对付人的肉体。 我把姐妹训了一顿,她就不哭了。不哭了,但是问题还没有解决。她刚才哭哭啼啼干啥呢?她也解释不通。为什么会这样呢?大家听着可能会对号入座,大概你也是这样。 拿起东西,要学习要成长,牧师刚刚讲过要成长啊。一看这一本书两百页,啥时候能看完,还没看呢就害怕了。翻开第一页开始相面,你看着它,它看着你。三个小时过去了,还在《创世记》第一章,一看表累了,去冰箱拿点吃的。然后再看《创世记》,困了睡一觉。睡一觉起来发现什么都没干,就难受。

人里面有一股力道就是不让你成长啊,如果你不能胜过去那是很困难的一件事。那个东西就是属肉体。我发现一个非常有趣的现象,好些事不能透过赶鬼做啊,一赶里面的东西就说我就是我自己。人身体有两个自己,一个是属灵的自己,一个是属肉体的自己。 比如这个人叫做张三,里面有肉体的张三也有一个属灵的张三,他俩也天天掐架,属灵的要成长,属肉体的就开始拦住你。不是邪灵和圣灵的交战,是我们里面的灵和肉体的交战。所以保罗写的我真是苦啊,谁能救我脱离曲死的身体? 今天我们每个弟兄姐妹都遇到这种状况,我们里面有很多属肉体的恶习,败坏我们自己不一定是鬼,就是我们属肉体的东西。比如我们说冲动是魔鬼,里面的气就上来了。咱们讲见证有些牧者说话放长生,然后说话磕磕绊绊的,东北话就是怎么半天放出来个响屁,听着就着急啊。

但是这东西很好啊, 试验怎么属肉体的恶习会不会被驱动。咱们里面有些人我已经定好了你里面属肉体的恶习。你知道属肉体的恶习有多少吗?懒惰,畏难情绪,挑剔,很多人的毛病会表现在人生命当中的层层面面。据我的研究,女人的妇科病跟肉体和识别善恶紧密相关。人有严重的痛经,这人肯定有严重的识别善恶。也许你是个例外,凡是都有例外,我这个是不完全的归纳法。 人体贴肉体,其实体现在人属肉体的层层面面,我分成了三类:体贴肉体,识别善恶,爱世界!这三样如果发生在人的身上,基本上就是灵里的癌症,灵里的癌症就会表现在肉身的癌症!如果你的家族里,有癌症患者或者在你的家族里头有很多癌症患者,周边的人有很多癌症患者,那你可要小心,因为癌症背后其实就是这三样!我们会常常觉得我们自己很不错,那你是凭什么呢?其实也没啥好凭的,如果说的不是神的话,那就很要命!

我们当中有体贴肉体的问题,跟今天讲的见证是一脉相承!今天我们弟兄姐妹讲的见证全都是对付肉体和对付肉体的喜好。比如说在教会里头,尤其是西方人,西方人有一个西方人的习惯!我们当中很多弟兄姐妹非常认同西方的文化。但这西方文化的教会里头自然而然的沾染了很多西方人的东西!他们对时间看得很重的,要求也很高!但是到了我这儿,这东西不好使! 前几天,我们有一个姐妹,跟我讲了一句话,她说我照顾我妈妈,但不能影响我的夫妻生活啊!我就觉着这很有意思啊!怎么可能不影响呢?人啊,就把这些事情当作理所当然的,因为影响他们的夫妻生活,那就影响她的家啊!不可能不影响的,在我娶我老婆之前我妈不是早就在那了吗?没有我妈哪来的我呀!但人家就不这么认为。西方人有一些文化是很可恶的文化,是个很自私的文化! 当然自私也很公平,那儿子对父亲,那孙子对他儿子也一样!都这么一代这么一代对付!但是在我的里面,装的不是西方的文化、东方的文化,我们装的是神的文化!我想什么话都比不上神的话呀!

孝敬父母是我们的天职,如果我们跟我们的父母识别善恶,这就违背了十诫!《圣经》里的十诫那是最基本最基本的要求!不能比这更低的要求,但很多人对孝敬父母的认识是不够的。有些人我嫁给了你或娶了你,我可没娶你妈,这话听起来很对。 可是你在娶她的时候,她妈早就存在了,尤其是80后,那都是独生子女,你娶了她,你不得娶了她妈呀!这都是连在一起的。人为什么这么说呢?因为体贴肉体,怕肉体遭罪呀!这可是要付代价的,会影响你的生活的。 今天我们真得拍拍胸口问问自己,是否照着西方的文化,东方的文化,还是印度的文化,还是照着神的话?一定要知道十诫里头孝敬父母是一个很重要的关键,是没法隔离开的!所以咱们当中的弟兄姐妹,如果你的孩子在咱们当中,我想我是一个孝敬父母的人。 我对老人绝不含糊!不是因为我老婆叫我孝敬父母或者不孝敬父母,是因为神的话这么说的,我孝敬父母那真的是很辛苦的事情!我的肉体不喜欢孝敬父母,但我是照着神的话做的。在人一生当中我们要确切的知道,神的话是不讨我们肉体喜悦的。

前几天,我接待一对母女,我送她们回去的时候。我就跟这个姐妹讲,回去了要好好留意你妈妈,是怎么看我这次怎么接待她的。因为她妈妈来,我没少训她,就是修理她身上那些体贴肉体的恶习!我说这次她妈妈应该得到不少吧!结果这姐妹给我做了个小鬼脸,说那可不一定,等她回去再慢慢了解! 我就在想,其实这些人信主不是一年两年了,但是在传统教会里,沾染的恶习,是一天两天除不去的,因为这些人基本上是属灵的瞎子,你别看她读《圣经》,读是读了,听我讲道也是听了,有时候也觉得我讲的很好,有时候很认同,也有时候不认同! 属灵的瞎子,她不知道在她妈妈的身体里,有一个属灵的张三和一个属肉体的张三。她不知道有两个,一个是属肉体的,一个是属灵的。那我告诉你,我所做的事,有一个特点,她属肉体,她属肉的那个人是不喜欢我做的,属灵的人是很喜欢我做的。也就是说这属肉体的和这属灵的在一个人的里面在争,像双胞胎一样,与生俱来东西,这些很要命的。 也就是说我们在听人说话的时候,哎呀,我最讨厌这个刘老师了,然后听了,他就烦!这个其实是很正常的,因为她属肉体的那个人肯定是不喜欢,但这并不代表一切。这绝对不代表一切。因为里面有时候是属灵的有人说话,有时候是属肉体的人说话,但我去看的时候我就知道,这是哪个东西在说话,那为这么做,她那属灵的就喜欢我,她那属肉体的就不喜欢我,就会恨我,就像是人格分裂似的。 人要想解决问题,就必须对付肉体的恶习。比如懒惰的人,早上一起来,一看要学习,就会说除了头发不疼,浑身都疼。一疼就伸伸懒腰,就去泡杯咖啡,一会到冰箱拿个水果吃,结果就这么瞎忙到了下午3点,事情也还没有开始做,也觉得没事,继续刷抖音、头条。 一刷就到了晚上6点,就去吃晚饭,吃过之后就说我要到晚上好好学习。结果一看浑身都疼,就头发不疼,就刷一会。一看晚上12点了,一看晚上12点有人在微信上联系,就开始扯淡,结果一天下来真纠结,什么都没有干,这就是属肉体的人。 我们要了解人一生最重要的功课,是顺从肉体活着,还是顺从圣灵活着呢?你是属肉体的人还是属灵的人呢?第二天一睡就睡到大中午,昨天,过去一个礼拜都没有做什么,结果就纠结难受。属肉体的人一定是很难受的,因为属肉体的恶习很多。我们当中的弟兄姐妹都要开始自己分辨下哪里是属肉体的自己,那些是属灵的自己。

主啊,我们里面真的很辛苦,今天愿你圣灵在我们身上做工,帮助我们治死肉体的恶习;主啊,让我们可以照着你的旨意活着,可以活出你的样子;主啊,今天在我们心里做启示的工作,让我们知道哪些是我们身体的恶习;主啊,今天就在我们身上做工,愿你亲自成全,我们愿意信靠你,愿意靠着你治死肉体的恶行,今天就启示我们,奉耶稣基督的名祷告,阿门!

前面我们讲了《神荣耀的知识》、《从前风闻有你,今天亲眼看见你》,我们当中很多人认识神不过是风闻有神,如果你没有在肉身受过苦,你就风闻有神,如果你体贴肉体,你还是风闻有神。如果我们愿意对付属肉体的恶性,我们就会进入到顺从圣灵的门,如果我们不是顺从圣灵,就不是神的儿子。今天我们要开始仔细思考,我们是进入到治死肉体恶习的门,还是体贴肉体的门。**一个人如果靠着肉体必要死,靠着圣灵必要活着。** 我们当中有一群人,有很多人有畏难情绪,一遇到困难就退缩,要么变颓废。遇到困难的时候,我们该怎么办?我们顺从肉体还是顺从圣灵,什么叫做顺从圣灵呢?这是很让人困惑的事情,我怎么才叫做体贴圣灵呢?体贴圣灵是生命平安,体贴肉体的是与神为仇。 今天讲见证的这个弟兄喜欢打电脑游戏,后来牧者推动他去跑外卖,消耗了很多体力,业绩会成长。我们还有一个姐妹,在对付属肉体的问题,单子就进来了,这是一个巧合吗?我们读《圣经》的话会发现,如果体贴肉体就是与神为仇,就没有办法讨神的喜悦,如果我们一旦开始对付体贴肉体的肉体。

畏难情绪基本上就是懒惰,懒惰的人一看到活就觉得很多。昨天我看到一个姐妹,照片发过来,一看家里整得非常得乱,因为她用体贴肉体的方法养孩子,所以孩子就不去收拾,孩子体贴肉体就会变得非常得笨,不体贴肉体的就喜欢干活,对付自己的懒惰,其实根本没有多少活,但是对于一个懒惰的人就觉得活很多,然后就不整,不整就更不想整,就更乱。 其实不但是屋子乱,人心里也很混乱,人一体贴肉体就不能够讨神的喜悦,就是与神为仇。我们做一些消耗体力的事,不是因为那个事有多好,是因为那个事情可以对付我们里面的懒惰。懒惰的人就喜欢顺着肉体的喜好做些毫无价值的事,人为什么会上瘾,是因为人里面有一个属肉体的自己。 所以今天弟兄姐妹一定要知道,不蒙祝福是因为人体贴肉体,我们把家里收拾干净实际上是在对付自己身上的肉体。如果我们在学习一个新的事物,如果里面不是一个靠着圣灵凭着信心相信我一定可以得胜的状态的话,一顺着肉体,就会有畏难情绪,在我们当中有很多人有这种畏难情绪。咱们今天要开始对付自己肉体的恶习,那到底怎么对付呢?就是今天我所要讲的。

经文说: 情欲的事,都是显而易见的。就如奸淫,污秽,邪荡,拜偶像,邪术,仇恨,争竞,忌恨,恼怒,结党,纷争,异端,嫉妒,(有古卷在此有凶杀二字)醉酒,荒宴等类,我从前告诉你们,现在又告诉你们,行这样事的人,必不能承受神的国。(《加拉太书》5:19-21)

第一必须在悟性上知道自己身上有这个恶习,我们常常讲圣灵光照,**圣灵其实是透过环境光照我们,**比如说约伯,约伯是怎么认识神的呢?是在一个很辛苦的过程当中总结出来自己是风闻有神,现在才亲眼看见神。其实我们所遇到的困难都是神的启示。 比如说我们身上会有一些毛病,这个毛病一定会带来很严重的副作用,你肯定知道,我们一旦了知道了自己身上有这样的毛病,你要学习如何靠着圣灵,**靠着圣灵一定是先在悟性上知道自己身上的问题,**如果一个人不知道自己身上有问题,觉得自己是一个完美无缺的人,那你不可能成长,你也不可能解决任何问题。 有一个很重要的观念就是我们必须知道问题是什么,**环境一定会让你看到自己身上的问题。**比如说有些人得癌症,那肯定是一个启示,但是得癌症以后有多少人愿意悔改对付自己身上属肉体的恶习呢?其实是很少的,得癌症的人都觉得自己很不错。 很多好人得癌症,为什么呢?其实好人很辛苦,人认为自己很好,很多事情发生了就很难接受,但是人如果认为自己不过是狗屎,很多事情就容易接受,就会反省。但是好人里面常常窝着一股气,表面上还要装做好人。如果人不知道自己身上的问题,那是很麻烦的事。

我们做牧养的工作要想造就一个人,就要把人属肉体的恶习彰显出来,让他不承认也得承认。昨天我跟我的一个同工对话,他觉得跟我说什么我都不同意,觉得跟我沟通很难,其实我们谈的不是一件事。其实问题彰显出来,对他是一个造就。我们当中发明了很多牧养的工具,就是使大家能够把肉体的恶习表现出来。 比如说我跟人对话,对着对着属肉体的恶习就表现出来了,我抓的老准了,一下就对付掉了。我想啊,这就是牧养。神更是这样的人,我们乃是与神同工啊,我们与神同工,神要做的我们就跟着去做,把让人属肉体的恶习表现出来,让人无可否认。 如果你问我,神在旷野里头带着以色列人干什么?就是干这件事,对付他们属肉体的恶习。你想,神指示起营,就起营。干啥,不知道,就走啊。天呐,你能够想象吗?所有的家当用大包袱包完搁肩上扛着。 我们出去旅游,最烦的就是启程。前几天我带人出去观光,他总结出来了。旅游就是上车睡觉,下车撒尿,回到家里什么都不知道,编的这顺口溜还挺有意思。以色列人那时候那哪是旅游啊,哎吆大包小包的,干啥?啥也不干,就是走。我在那个状态也会想,那是干啥呢?折腾什么呢?能不能消停消停啊。非得折腾,折腾啥呢? 结果就走着走着,因为旷野里行路难走啊,在旷野能不难走吗?拉着大的,带着小的,背着一个更小的。然后家里的家当全都拿着,还有点羊有点牛啊,弄得呜呀乱叫,看着那是一片混乱。干啥呢?就是治死肉体的恶习。结果以色列人肉体的恶习就一而再再而三的彰显,抱怨这个,抱怨那个。   咱们也这么干,咱们也对付属肉体的恶习啊。留作业写作业,录音转文字,就是对付属肉体的恶习。人懒惰是不行的,人身上的恶习,一而再再而三的让它彰显出来,不断地彰显不断的除掉,着就叫成长。圣灵怎么做呢?圣灵就是这么做,在旧约《圣经》里给我们看见神就是这么做。

所以,我们一旦知道了自己的问题,这个时候,我们靠着圣灵入门,我们就靠着圣灵成事。凭着信心靠着圣灵,**记住永远都凭着信心靠着圣灵。**如果人不知道神在干啥,很难与神同工。如果你不知道我在干啥,有的时候很多人都是我干的事整完了才知道。今天我们一旦我们认识到我们有懒惰的问题,就靠着圣灵,我们的软弱有圣灵帮助。 今天我教你给办法,一开始读书除了头发不疼浑身都疼,难受怎么办?开始方言祷告命令魔鬼退下去!治死我肉体的恶习!治死我肉体的恶习!治死我肉体的恶习!五分钟回来发现头也不痛了,身上也不痛了,就继续做。 然后开始跟你的牧者配合,告诉牧者你需要跟牧者一起对付肉体的恶习。一旦软弱的时候,赶紧找你的牧者带着你祷告。很快,圣灵会帮助我们的。**圣灵帮助是我们能力的泉源,**所以我们里面一旦有问题彰显出来,是很难受的,我们里面肯定有难受。 有人问我怎么知道里面有问题?里面难受还能不知道吗?我们里面有那种结党、抱怨、纷争、制造问题,还有假冒为善。很多东西都是以行为为本,为什么有人服侍到完全垮掉?因为他们是凭着肉身服侍,凭着行为为本来服侍。他是因为他做得好,所以他觉着好。我们不是因为做得好,我们是因为我们凭着信心。

今天咱们弟兄姐妹一旦我们做的事有圣灵帮助,我们的软弱就可以完全对付掉。所以我们学习靠着圣灵,圣灵亲自用说不出来的叹息替我们祷告。监察人心的晓得圣灵的意思,因为圣灵照着神的旨意替圣徒乞求。圣灵在我们里面替我们祷告,在灵里讲说各样的奥秘,那是非常有效的祷告。如果你灵里祷告跟不上,你基本上也谈不上是一个属灵的人。 所以,大量的方言祷告是非常有益处的,圣灵一定会光照你。如果你自己在悟性上认识你的问题,我告诉你靠着圣灵一定可以胜过去。今天我们当中有畏难情绪的、有一些困扰的、难受的、懒惰的、软弱的,我们的软弱会显出神的刚强。

靠着圣灵单单信靠祂,我们要晓得万事都互相效力叫爱神的人得益处。如果我们是一个挑剔的人,凡是有癌症背景的、什么高血脂、高血糖、好几高的身上都有恶习的。这话其实不是单单是说给你,也是说给我。有的人说,你看你身上有这个毛病,你看你发烧了吧,生病了吧。我又不是义人的典范,我是罪人的典范,我有毛病不是很正常吗?难道神单单对付你不对付我吗?神对付我对付得淋漓尽致,你不要担心。 我们要晓得万事互相效力让爱神的人得益处。今天所有的事情,不是照着专业水准,是照着互相效力。不知道神在掌权吗?万事互相效力,叫爱神的人得益处。若人不爱主,这人可咒可诅!我们不要以为今天讲见证的时间特别长,不要挑剔,万事互相效力! 读《圣经》要读给自己,今天我就挑战那些挑剔的人。如果有挑剔的习惯,《圣经》应该读给自己,要求你爱人如己,不是要求别人爱你。如果今天真的有爱,就不会有挑剔的恶习。我们逐渐发现癌症患者都有挑剔的恶习,你要不要冒着得癌症的风险,还是治死属肉体的恶习?

我们要知道属肉体的恶习真的很要命。凡是生殖器有问题的,都是识别善恶很严重的人。我们服侍过很多月经有问题的、不能生孩子的,都是识别善恶很严重的。识别善恶是出于人属肉体的恶习,像争竞、嫉妒,因为他们顺从肉体的反映,里面的情绪非常的强烈。但圣灵所结的果子就是仁爱,喜乐,和平,忍耐,恩慈,良善,信实,温柔,节制。 当我们一步一步治死属肉体的恶习,很多问题就迎刃而解。其实你不是不知道这些问题,你的问题正彰显在你生活的层层面面。为什么神最讨厌法利赛人?因为法利赛人以为自己是一个义人,以为自己交十一奉献,守主日就会怎么样,神要的是行公义,好怜悯,存谦卑的心与你的神同行。 我们属肉体的恶习就是我们遇到悲剧的一个原因,所以要靠着圣灵治死属肉体的恶习。今天难道不是神在掌权吗?我们服侍人的,难道是我们吗?不是,是神与我们同工。是我们浇灌、撒种、施肥,但使人成长的是神。 为什么要识别善恶,体贴肉体,与神为敌呢?难道非要等到结出咒诅的果子来才肯悔改吗?如果是我,宁愿不要结出咒诅的果子,提前预备好自己。如果亲眼看见过癌症患者,他们非常的辛苦。今天就对付我们灵里的癌症,肉体的恶习,对付我们里面的挑剔、懒惰、以行为为本。凡不出于信心的都是罪,有信心的人,神一定会他同工。

经文这样说: 既是这样,还有什么说的呢?神若帮助我们,谁能敌挡我们呢?神既不爱惜自己的儿子为我们众人舍了,岂不也把万物和他一同白白地赐给我们吗?谁能控告神所拣选的人呢?有神称他们为义了。(或作是称他们为义的神吗?)谁能定他们的罪呢?有基督耶稣已经死了,而且从死里复活,现今在神的右边,也替我们祈求。(有基督云云或作是已经死了而且从死里复活现今在神的右边也替我们祈求的基督耶稣吗)(《罗马书》8:31-34) 我们虽然有属肉体的恶习,但没有人能控告我们,只要定意顺从圣灵与神同工,让圣灵在我们当中不断地对付,我们一定可以走出一条路来。虽然有畏难情绪,但不可怕,你一定可以得胜,因为你是一个靠着神的人。不是因为你有能力、体力,是因为你有信心,顺着圣灵,靠着爱我们的主耶稣,在这一切事上都得胜有余了。 谁能使我们与基督的爱隔绝呢?在我们欠债的时候没有哭哭啼啼,现在我们为什么要哭哭啼啼?过去我们能够靠着圣灵走到今天,今天靠着圣灵就能够走到明天。我们靠着圣灵入门,还要靠着肉身、能力成全吗?有人觉得自己能力不行,什么都做不好,你不也活着吗?

今天在我们当中有属肉体恶习的,重新恢复里面的盼望,恢复里面的信心!我们一定要靠着爱我们的主!神爱我们,不是因为我们做得好,是因为我们白白得着恩典。既然我们是白白领受恩典,那我们有什么资格去评论那些白白得恩典的人呢? 我们当中谁是一个完人呢?如果你是一个挑剔的人就把挑剔放在自己属肉体的恶习身上。读《圣经》是读给自己的,然而靠着爱我们的主,因为我们每一个人都是神手里的作品。我们有什么资格说:“神,你看你在这个人身上做得这么烂。”我们能否在信心里面看到未来,就算是弱智的孩子,神也会使他成为兴胜的人。如果拉撒路可以从坟墓里走出来,神可以让他活过来,难道我们活着的人不可能得胜吗? 我身上有一个极大的优点就是我是一个有信心的人,你很少会发现我挑剔。我们当中有一个15岁的孩子,他经常打电脑、扯淡,他妈妈说他每次都这样,但我从来不说他每次都这样。我说:“孩子,你是不是里面渴望成长?我帮助你!”这孩子看到我就看到了希望,孩子看到他妈妈讲的话就看到了绝望。 我相信神一定会在这个孩子身上恢复神荣耀的形象。15岁的孩子,最近发简历面试了,开始找工作,要做程序员。我们为什么会训练这个孩子?因为我们里面有信心,因为我们知道神希望每一个人都活出祂荣耀的形象。

我们身上有恶习,只要我们顺着圣灵,不断地治死我们身上的恶习。我们有信心,我们知道神正在对付身上恶习,所以他才变成今天这个样子。不断的释放不断的对付,前几天脸上长了一个大包。然后我跟他说:“你要开始对付你里面属世界的价值体系。”把价值体系重新建立在神的话语上。他自己也说:“以前信主不知道是为什么。但是现在好像明白了,这几天好像开始开窍了,我知道信主是好得无比的事。” 我非常的感恩,不但我对5加4等于8的孩子有信心,我们当中的弟兄姐妹,还不是5加4等于8,等于九的孩子不是更有信心吗?所以我的服侍非常的享受,我从来不定人的罪,从来都是带着盼望带着信心去服侍所有的人。虽然有一些人让我失望,但是没关系,但耶稣基督里,我知道神一定在掌权。 弟兄姐妹,如果你能理解我的苦心,就会知道,做我这样的有多好。你可能会说好什么好,但没有关系。我鼓励我们当中的每一个人都成为带着信心释放神的大能,成为这个世代的祝福,让靠近你的都因着你的服侍得着恩典,这是我的安慰。 我们当中的一个姐妹,带她妈来找我的时候,我真的想推掉,太累了。就在网上服侍,因为我的工作是训练更多的牧者,我希望有千千万万神所喜欢的特者被兴起来,好满足这个世代的需要。我们做事真的可圈可点,可以被人挑剔,但我们非常的清楚,我们就是要与神同工,就算我做的不好,我的神一定会在底下兜着,就算我做错了,我的神也会变成对的。**万事一定会互相效力,我就靠着爱我的主,在这一切事上都得胜有余了。**

**神在掌权,神照样在你我身上掌权, 所以我们就不必论断。**我们就开始说:“神,我爱你,我要赞美你的荣耀,赞美你的恩典和慈爱。”愿神的爱激励我们成为一个可以服侍神的人,激励我们成为一个治死肉体恶习的人,顺从圣灵,可以成为这个世代的祝福。把我身上的恶习一样一样对付掉,不是没有盼望,是满有恩典满有盼望满有信心。 正如经文说: 然而,靠着爱我们的主,在这一切的事上已经得胜有余了。 因为我深信无论是死,是生,是天使,是掌权的,是有能的,是现在的事,是将来的事,是高处的,是低处的,是别的受造之物,都不能叫我们与神的爱隔绝;这爱是在我们的主基督耶稣里的。(《罗马书》8:37-39) 弟兄姐妹,你是否重新开始建立你的信心,来对付属肉体的恶习?心里明明知道神在我们身上有美好的计划,祂必亲自成就这计划,好让祂的荣耀彰显在我们的身上。让我们遇到困难的时候,不再靠着自己的能力,乃是靠着神的大能,一定可以胜过去!我们带着信心带着盼望,根本就不在乎所有的困难,那就是属神的人。顺着圣灵凭着信心,治死肉体的恶习,凡是败坏我们信心的都在我们身上除去,就是深信神在我们身上的美好计划要成就! 愿神祝福大家!

Pastor Liu's preaching is so good that I have benefited a lot. May God's Spirit constantly move me every day to put to death the evil habits of the flesh!
