平安-恩惠與平安歸於彌賽亞耶穌基督(Yeshua HaMashiach)

國際禱告聚焦著重在關於各國難民潮所處的困境,以及湧入歐洲與其它國家的空前難民們他們每日生活即時的需要,就是從戰爭地區逃來的,以及包括我們在基督裏受逼迫的弟兄姊妹;基督徒難民;逃離他們自己摯愛的國家,為要尋找新生活、盼望以及他們妻小家人的安全去處。

摻在這波難民潮當中要關注的是恐怖團體與真正難民混在一起的滲透,以致於恐怖團體能以帶給各個國家的浩劫與毀滅。這已有很清楚的記載,恐怖團體也已指出他們要偽裝成難民身分,做為他們策略之一部份,以滲入可能的各國家;對列國政府與安全部門來說,當恐怖份子利用每一個他們所能獲得的機會以進行滲透行動,這樣的事並非一件新鮮而需訝異的事。

我們必須記住,在一些被當地教師及社會媒體影響的國家中,這些恐怖分子已經被組建起來,且自由地前往訓練恐怖分子的國家,又再透過各種手段與開放的門戶返回本國,他們表示(藉口)自己係從發生衝突的國家中逃回來的難民。

許多這些恐怖分子已經建立恐怖小組(sleepers),關於巴黎爆炸,他們名字已經被記錄並受監督以及公開在新聞網路中;國產的本土聖戰士(homegrown jihadist);恐怖分子;在難民潮之前,就早已在比利時及其他國家已建立好並存在的恐怖分子有強烈的掛勾。為要更進一步鞏固安全檢查以及邊境崗哨的需要,必須禁止列名的聖戰士與可疑份子的來往接觸,而這正是"政府安全的責任之手(responsible hands of government security)",因此提供了在地與國家之保護,並且藉著嚴密的邊界控制,來檢查並接受難民的進入,以及對於真正難民安全的通行。好消息是,加拿大與新當選的政府正主導著接收了2萬5千位新的敘利亞難民,以開放的心胸,並藉由控制與保護支持系統,接收這些難民進入社群。

我們必須不可孤立這些難民,並在他們所渴望獲得平安的生活、國家被踐踏,以及在他們需要的時候拒絕他們,政府的責任以及國家/國際安全守望系統必須提升到較高的警戒,要對宗教人士以及可疑團體的旅行路線與目的地有更嚴謹、清楚之安檢與更高層級的解決辦法。對於防備恐怖活動的責任必須與安檢繫在一起,以制止那些在教義上已經被訓練與教導去仇恨他們國內本地居民的人;包括被仇恨與毀滅的恐怖教義洗腦的年輕人與孩童,也包括提供槍械武器給恐怖團體的人。

當我尋求主關於難民的逃難時,主提醒我那就是"逃離的日子與時刻(a day and time to flee)

耶穌祂自己的逃離也是我們的榜樣,首先是祂在瑪利亞腹中仍為嬰孩之時;當他們抵達伯利恆要生產時,除了一座馬槽,已經沒有空房。在祂出生之後,主的使者也向約瑟顯現,並指示約瑟“逃往埃及(flee toEgypt)”(*太2:13)因希律王的緣故(希律被羅馬官員尊稱為“猶大的王”,如同他是羅馬帝國的封臣)..他也發怒要殺盡二歲以內的男孩,來制止關於將來臨的‘猶大支派的獅子’,萬王之‘王’的神先知性話語之應驗,現在在他統治期間內,這位已被指派的猶大的王即將來臨。

約瑟與瑪利亞帶著尚未出生的‘萬王之王’抵達伯利恆,卻發現旅店裏沒有空房了;耶穌;於是誕生在馬槽中-祂了解那些連躺下都沒地方的人們的需要。

下面這節經文在我們心思中帶下亮光與理解,願聖霝透過祂的話來對我們說話,並引導我們認識現今所處的時刻與季節,向難民的需要以及他們的逃離(難)敞開我們的心胸;知道耶穌從祂自己的經歷也了解難民的心,這經歷就是一個被主的使者吩咐"逃離"的家庭,"逃到埃及",到另一個國家求保護,為要使預言應驗。神從埃及將他的兒子召出來。(*太2:15)

主啊! 請在列國中打開人們的心,奉祢的名,帶著祢的憐憫與瞭解,來接受難民。

[敘利亞:居里扭被任命為敘利亞的巡撫,到猶大省增加人口普查的目的(*路2:2)。[1] [英文維基百科]

路加福音 2:1-7 當那些日子,凱撒奧古斯都有旨意下來,叫天下人民都報名上冊。這是居里扭作敘利亞巡撫的時候,頭一次行報名上冊的事。眾人各歸各城,報名上冊。約瑟也從加利利的拿撒勒城上猶太去,到了大衛的城,名叫伯利恆,因他本是大衛一族一家的人,要和他所聘之妻馬利亞一同報名上冊。那時馬利亞的身孕已經重了。他們在那裏的時候,馬利亞的產期到了,就生了頭胎的兒子,用布包起來,放在馬槽裏,因為客店裏沒有地方。在伯利恆之野地裏有牧羊的人,夜間按著更次看守羊群。有主的使者站在他們旁邊,主的榮光四面照著他們;牧羊的人就甚懼怕。那天使對他們說:「不要懼怕!我報給你們大喜的信息,是關乎萬民的;因今天在大衛的城裏,為你們生了救主,就是主基督。你們要看見一個嬰孩,包著布,臥在馬槽裏,那就是記號了。」忽然,有一大隊天兵同那天使讚美上帝說:在至高之處榮耀歸與上帝!在地上平安歸與他所喜悅的人 ( - 有古卷:喜悅歸與人)!眾天使離開他們,升天去了。牧羊的人彼此說:「我們往伯利恆去,看看所成的事,就是主所指示我們的。」他們急忙去了,就尋見馬利亞和約瑟,又有那嬰孩臥在 馬槽裏;既然看見,就把天使論這孩子的話傳開了。

“逃往埃及” [….起來,帶著小孩子同他母親,逃往埃及]

馬太福音 2:13-15 他們去後,有主的使者向約瑟夢中顯現,說:「起來!帶著小孩子同他母親逃往埃及,住在那裏,等我吩咐你;因為希律必尋找小孩子,要除滅他。」約瑟就起來,夜間帶著小孩子和他母親往埃及去,住在那裏,直到希律死了。這是要應驗主藉先知所說的話,說:「我從埃及召出我的兒子來。」

神的話在我們生活的這些年日可能也會再次臨到--關於從我們居住的地方與地土"逃離"。有些人可能會如同亞伯拉罕一樣,被呼召憑信心去到主要他去的地方。聖霝揭露他們將會是大批百姓的遷徙流動;不只是難民而已,更有列國的百姓可能回到他們自己的家鄉,尋求保護以及與家人在一起;兒子女兒們重新團聚一起,為要預備預言的應驗;許多散居全球的猶太人也將會有更進一步號聲吹起呼召,歸回到他們的家園故土(*應許之地)。

耶利米書50:28 有從巴比倫之地逃避出來的人,在錫安揚聲報告雅威-我們的上帝報仇,就是為他的殿報仇。

耶利米書51:6 你們要從巴比倫中逃奔,各救自己的性命!不要陷在她的罪孽中一同滅亡;因為這是雅威報仇的時候,他必向巴比倫施行報應。

那鴻書 2:8 尼尼微自古以來 充滿人民,如同聚水的池子;現在居民卻都逃跑。雖有人呼喊說:站住!站住!卻無人回顧

撒迦利亞書2:6 雅威說:「我從前分散你們在天的四方( - 原文是猶如天的四風),現在你們要從北方之地逃回。這是雅威說的。[錫安及許多國家未來的喜樂]

馬太福音2:13 他們去後,有主的使者向約瑟夢中顯現,說:「起來!帶著小孩子同他母親逃往埃及,住在那裏,等我吩咐你;因為希律必尋找小孩子,要除滅他。」[逃往埃及]

馬太福音10:23 有人在這城裏逼迫你們,就逃到那城裏去。我實在告訴你們,以色列的城邑,你們還沒有走遍,人子就到了。

馬太福音24:16 那時,在猶太的,應當逃到山上;

馬可福音13:14 你們看見那行毀壞可憎的,站在不當站的地方 [讀這經的人須要會意]。那時,在猶太的,應當逃到山上;[大磨難]

路加福音21:20-21 你們看見耶路撒冷被兵圍困,就可知道它成荒場的日子近了。那時,在猶太的應當逃到山上;在城裏的應當出來;在鄉下的不要進城;

信心的禱告

天父,我們奉主耶穌的名,為難民以及對他們即時的需要所有的幫助、支持、食物、避難所與健康獻上感恩。父阿,謝謝祢,因耶穌也明瞭“逃離(flee)”的呼召,就是在他仍是孩童時,君王想要殺害他,因著祢透過天使賜給約瑟對整個家庭信實保護的話語--逃到另一個國家直等到再次領受祢的話;主,教導我們祢的道路,並開啟我們的心,謙卑地接受對我們土地極為陌生的這些人民,並用愛與祝福的張開膀臂來擁抱他們,同時也保護我們四境百姓,免於披著羊皮的狼行走在他們當中,以及圖謀趁隙入境。父阿,我們禱告我們的國家有更廣大的洞察力(*辨識)與認識—包括對此難民潮的保護、恐怖分子教師、以及進入這些國家的新移民。稱頌祢,父阿,因著祢對我們每一個人的愛與恩典,

讓我們也可以跟別人分享祢的美善與祝福,奉耶穌的名禱告,因為我們聆聽祢的聲音並明白我們正處於的季節與時刻。阿們!

為難民的禱告重點:

1. 他們可以聽見主的話,當需要"逃離"的時候
2. 他們到陌生境地的旅程中之保護與供應
3. 堅固的邊境崗哨來保護當地百姓與真正難民可以進入
4. 有憐憫的心接受難民,有許多是基督徒弟兄姊妹在其中
5. 列國能夠有策略來幫助教育新難民融入新社會成為一份子
6. 對於在逃難過程中或在本國遭恐怖攻擊、逼迫而喪生摯愛的親人之難民提供醫治創傷的輔導
7. “懼怕"將被戰勝,並且愛可以贏回這日;"神就是愛" 愛要得勝!

Subject: A DAY AND TIME TO FLEE

SHALOM- Grace and Peace in Yeshua HaMashiach [Jesus the Messiah]

International prayer concern is held regarding the plight of refugees flooding the nations and their immediate needs for daily living with the unprecedented numbers arriving in Europe and the nations as they flee: from the war zones and persecution' including our brothers and sisters in Christ; the Christian refugees; fleeing and leaving their own beloved countries behind to find new life and hope and safety for their wives and families.

Ad-midst this influx of peoples is the concern held of the terrorist groups infiltrating with the genuine refugees so they can cause havoc and destruction in the nations. It has been clearly recorded that these terrorist groups have already indicated they would seek to camouflage their identity as a refugee as part of their strategy to enter in the nations where possible; this is not new and of no surprise to the security and governments in the nations as terrorist use every opportunity available to them.

We must also remember these terrorists are already established in the nations being influenced by local teachers and social media with the would be terrorists traveling freely to those terrorist training nations and returning back through an open door in a variety of means outside of infiltrating and presenting themselves as a refugee that are fleeing the countries of conflict because of them.

Many of the these terrorists have already set up terror cells (sleepers) as has been shown on the networks of news with their names already under surveillance as has been documented regarding the Paris bombings; homegrown jihadist; terrorists; linked with strong influence and connection already established and existing in Belgium and the nations prior to the influx of refugees.The need to tighten further security control and checks at the borders by stopping the movements of suspect and known Jihadist is required is the "responsible hands of government security" thus providing local and national protection and a safe passage for the genuine refugees with a tight border controls to check and receive refugee entrance. The good news is that Canada and the new government elected are leading the way to receive 25.000 new Syrian refugees with a control and protective support system being open in heart and mind to receive them.community.

We must not isolate the refugees and reject them in their time of need and devastation in their nations and their desire to live in peace. The responsibility of governments and security watch system nationally and internationally must be on a higher alert with a higher level of resolve for tighter controls on religious jihadist persons and suspect groups with a clearer security check on travel movements and destinations. Responsibility for terror must also rest with security to stop those that teach and train in doctrines of hate in local communities in the nations; influencing children and young people with brainwashing terror doctrines of hate and destruction including those that provide guns and weapons for terror.groups.

On seeking the LORD regarding the flight of refugees the LORD reminded me that there is a "day and time to flee"

Jesus is also our example of His own flight firstly as a babe in the womb of Mary; they arrived at Bethlehem with no room except a stable for His birth. After His birth an angel from the LORD also appeared to Joseph and gave Joseph instructions to "flee to Egypt" as king Herod (Herod was granted the title of "King of Judea" by the Roman Senate, as such he was a vassal of the Roman Empire} .. he was also wrath to destroy all innocent male children under 2 years of age to stop the fulfillment of God's prophetic scripture of the coming KING of all kings the LION OF THE TRIBE OF JUDAH who now arrives during his ruler-ship as the then appointed king of Judea

Joseph Mary carrying the unborn KING OF KINGS on arrival in Bethlehem found there was no room at the Inn; Jesus; was born in a stable - He understands the needs of those who have no place to lay their heads.

The following scriptures brings light and understanding to our hearts and minds may the Holy Spirit speak and guide us in and through His Word of the time and season we are living in with and open heart toward the needs of refugees and their flight; knowing that Jesus who understands the hearts of a refugee from His own experience of a "FLEEING" family having been instructed by the angel of the Lord to "FLEE TO EGYPT " to another nation for protection and fulfillment of prophecy. God calling His Son out of Egypt

LORD open our hearts in the nations to receive the refugees in your name with your compassion and understanding.

[ SYRIA: Quirinius was appointed legate governor of Syria, to which the province of Judaea had been added for the purpose of a census.[1] [Wikipedia]

Luke 2:1-7
And it came to pass in those days that a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be registered. 2 This census first took place while Quirinius was governing Syria. 3 So all went to be registered, everyone to his own city.4 Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David, 5 to be registered with Mary, his betrothed wife,[a] who was with child. 6 So it was, that while they were there, the days were completed for her to be delivered.7 And she brought forth her firstborn Son, and wrapped Him in swaddling cloths, and laid Him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn.

"FLEE TO EGYPT" [ .....ARISE TAKE THE YOUNG CHILD AND HIS MOTHER AND FLEE TO EGYPT]

Matthew 2:13-15
13 Now when they had departed, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream, saying,“Arise, take the young Child and His mother, flee to Egypt, and stay there until I bring you word; for Herod will seek the young Child to destroy Him.”14 When he arose, he took the young Child and His mother by night and departed for Egypt, 15 and was there until the death of Herod, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying, “Out of Egypt I called My Son"

The Word of God may come also in these days we live in to "FLEE" regarding the land and place of our residence. Some may be called like Abraham to go to the place called and given by the LORD by faith. The Holy Spirit revealing that their will be mass movements of people; not just as refugees but peoples of nations many returning home to their own lands for the protection and to be with family; sons and daughters reunited in preparation of the fulfillment of prophecy; many Jews scattered throughout the earth will also have a further clarion call to return to the homeland

Jeremiah 50:28
The voice of those who flee and escape from the land of Babylon Declares in Zion the vengeance of the Lordour God, The vengeance of His temple.

Jeremiah 51:6
Flee from the midst of Babylon, And every one save his life! Do not be cut off in her iniquity, For this is the time of the Lord’s vengeance; He shall recompense her.

Nahum 2:8
Though Nineveh of old was like a pool of water, Now they flee away. “Halt! Halt!” they cry; But no one turns back.

Zechariah 2:6
[ Future Joy of Zion and Many Nations ] “Up, up! Flee from the land of the north,” says the Lord; “for I have spread you abroad like the four winds of heaven,” says the Lord.

Matthew 2:13
[ The Flight into Egypt ] Now when they had departed, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream, saying, “Arise, take the young Child and His mother, flee to Egypt, and stay there until I bring you word; for Herod will seek the young Child to destroy Him.”

Matthew 10:23
When they persecute you in this city, flee to another. For assuredly, I say to you, you will not have gone through the cities of Israel before the Son of Man comes.

Matthew 24:16
“then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.

Mark 13:14
[ The Great Tribulation ] “So when you see the ‘abomination of desolation,’ spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not” (let the reader understand), “then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.

Luke 21:20 21
20 “But when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that its desolation is near. 21 Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains, let those who are in the midst of her depart, and let not those who are in the country enter her. 22 For these are the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.

PRAYER OF FAITH
Heavenly Father we thank you for refugees and their immediate needs of help and support; food; shelter and health for them all in Jesus name . Thank you Father that Jesus understands the call also to " FLEE" as a child from a king that wanted to destroy Him and your faithful Word of protection that was given to Joseph for the family by the angel to go to another land until a word was received; teach us LORD of your ways and open our hearts to humbly receive these peoples that are strangers to our lands and welcome them with open arms of love and blessing while protecting the citizens of the land from the wolves in sheep's clothing walking amongest them and seeking entrance in disguise. Father we pray for greater insight and knowledge for our nations protection of the movement and teachers of terror including the new refugees arriving into the nations.Bless you Father for your love and grace to each one of us that we too may share of your goodness and blessings to others in Jesus name we pray; cause us to hear your voice and understand the season and time we are now living in. Amen
