I pray that FCS will be a blessing to you. Let us help you fulfill this unique plan that God has for your life.
May our Heavenly Father’s Unfailing Love pour out His abundance of Grace upon you!

DO YOU KNOW HOW GOD HONOURS US?
1 Samuel 2:30 (KJV) … for them that honour me I will honour, God honours those who will honour Him. When the Lord gives to us and provides for our every need, He is honouring His commitment to the covenant and His commitment to us as our Heavenly Father. Why do we honour the Heavenly Father? It is because He is God and our Heavenly Father, and Jesus is Our Lord. And He honours us by honouring His commitment to us. Therefore, our commitment is to honour the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost; this is our way of committing to the Blood Covenant of our Lord Jesus. When we honour Him, He will honour us again, and we will continue to honour Him. The Heavenly Father gives us all and gives us to give to Him, so we honour Him, the One who provides, protects, preserves, guides and directs us and gives us hope and a bright future.The word “honour” in Hebrew means heavy, weighty, and honoured. It is the same Hebrew word used in Genesis 13:2, translated as “very rich”. Genesis 13:2 (NKJV) Abram was very rich in livestock, in silver, and in gold.Thus, to be “very rich” means Abraham was heavily “weighted down” with wealth. This was how God honoured Abraham, who honoured God. And this is how God the Father will honour us when we honour Him and our Lord Jesus Christ.Abraham honoured God by obeying Him. Abraham left his ancestral home and his relatives to go to some unknown and unfamiliar place the Lord directed him to. Abraham honoured God by simply obeying His voice. And God honoured him with riches. God heavily “weighted down” on Abraham with wealth and made him very rich. We can never outdo God. When we obey Him, He will overly enrich us. God is amazing, doing things superabundantly above all we can ask or imagine. If that was how the Lord honoured Abraham, who obeyed Him by faith, would the Lord not honour us if we obey and serve Him? The Heavenly Father is the same yesterday, today and forever. If we serve money, we will be made poor. But if we serve the Lord, we will be made rich. John 12:26 (NKJV) If anyone serves Me, let him follow Me; and where I am, there My servant will be also. If anyone serves Me, him My Father will honor. Anyone who serves Jesus is serving the Heavenly Father. Jesus said the Heavenly Father will honour those who serve Jesus.Abraham is our example, and Jesus is simply stating the nature of the Heavenly Father and revealing to us a spiritual truth. Serving Jesus is honouring the Heavenly Father and Jesus our Lord. Therefore, when we honour the Heavenly Father and Jesus, we will be honoured beyond what we can ask or imagine. Serve the Lord Jesus at His altar in His temple. Live to honour the Lord!Rev. Cheong Yew KwongFaith Church SingaporePlease visit our website at faithchurch.sg#goodtoread

极大的信心来自谦卑
耶稣到了推罗和西顿一带，走进一户人家，但不想让别人知道祂在那里。可是有一个迦南妇人还是找上门来了。她的女儿被鬼附着，急需医治，因此她来到这户人家，恳求耶稣医治释放她的女儿（马可福音7:24-25）。对当时的犹太人而言，迦南妇人是被弃绝的外邦人，但她仍然鼓足勇气走进了一个犹太人的家。可是耶稣和门徒给她的回答，就算不是绝望透顶，至少也绝不振奋人心。 首先，耶稣没有回答她。耶稣直接无视了一个女儿被鬼折磨、急需帮助的母亲。 第二，耶稣的门徒把她赶出了房门。 第三，耶稣不肯服事她，因为耶稣说，祂奉差遣不过是往以色列人那里去。 第四，耶稣说，拿儿女的饼丢给狗吃是不好的。也就是说，耶稣的言下之意是，把属灵的恩赐给外邦人是不对的，所以，这本来是她女儿不配得到的。 第五，她被说成是一只狗，在当时的犹太人眼中，迦南人就跟宠物狗一样。她的女儿毫无得救的希望，而她也受尽了鄙夷。 被拒绝，被伤害，换了别人在这样的情况下，恐怕早就一走了之、心灰意冷、再也不去教会了。但这个腓尼基妇人是如何回应耶稣的？她非常谦卑地回答说，就算是狗，也会吃主人桌上掉下的碎渣儿。于是耶稣说： 马太福音15:28 耶稣说：“妇人，你的信心是大的！照你所要的，给你成全了吧。”从那时候，她女儿就好了。 谦卑的人不会被冒犯，相反，他们会放低身段，只为从天父那里得到自己想要的东西。 信心是从听道来的，就是听见基督的话语（罗马书10:17），每个人都能有信心，但每个人也都有可能被冒犯，从而无法从天父那里领受任何祝福。 彼得前书5:5 你们年幼的，也要顺服年长的。就是你们众人也都要以谦卑束腰，彼此顺服；因为神阻挡骄傲的人，赐恩给谦卑的人。 圣经说祂赐恩典给谦卑的人。因此，当腓尼基妇人像狗一样谦卑自己、放低身段的时候，神的恩典肯定已经赐给她了。不幸的是，很多基督徒宁可让自己的孩子死于魔鬼的折磨，也不愿意谦卑自己去领受神的真理。 谦卑的人才能从天父那里领受恩典。极大的恩典是那些有着极大信心的人才能得到的，就是那些极其谦卑的人。 信心是从听基督的话而来的（罗马书10:17），任何人听见耶稣的话语之后都能有信心，因为耶稣是藉着恩典、通过圣灵对我们说话。但是，要让我们的信心大大增长，成为大有信心的人，那只听道是不够的。我们还需要谦卑自己，才能领受更大的恩典，建立更大的信心。 信心来自听道，而极大的信心来自谦卑！耀光牧师新加坡信心教会请访问我们的中文播客,faithchurch.sg/牧师手札/#牧师手札
