我的仇敵啊，不要向我誇耀。我雖跌倒，卻要起來；我雖坐在黑暗裡，耶和華卻作我的光。（彌7:8）
我愛這節經文！對我來說，這是終極的復出。幾年前，我讀到一個拳擊手復出的故事。沒人認為他會贏，但他贏了。在文章中，他說了一些多年來一直困擾著我的事情。他說…
一個真正的贏家知道如何調整。
一個真正的贏家總是找得到回來的道路
在過去的幾個月裡，我的許多朋友都受到精神上甚至身體上的攻擊。我相信是時候聽一些復出的故事了！我相信神在向著基督的身體裡的許多人宣告，「是時候復出了！」。
我相信在我們聽到一些人的復出故事，人們可能會說，「他們永遠不會成功。我知道他們做不到。他們沒有什麼辦法渡過難關。」反對者將會是錯的。永遠不要小看一個有志於完成比賽的男人或女人。
也許這是我們需要問自己的首要問題：我們的心在裡面嗎？無論你的信心在何處，你的心在裡面嗎？是你的願望，還是你的信仰？有很大的不同。區別在於心，帶著信心的心。我們必須相信神會照祂說的去做。像亞伯拉罕一樣，我們必須被完全說服。
一個真正的贏家知道如何調整
我並不是因缺乏說這話，我無論在什麼景況都可以知足，這是我已經學會了。（腓4:11）
如果說我在去年學到了什麼，那就是：如何知足。當我們學會去適應變化和我們希望能夠改變的情況時，滿足感就來了。首先，我們必須調整我們的思想。一旦我們的思想調整了，我們就可以調整我們的語言。這將需要時間和紀律，但我們可以學會調整和在任何時候都停留在神的平安裡。你不能讓每一種情況或變化都影響到你。保持堅定和不動。站在神的道上不動搖，學會調整。
一個真正的贏家總是找得到回來的道路
有些人是你無法壓制的。大衛王就是其中之一。無數次，人們尋索他的性命。他全家都被擄走了。他的妻子也反對他。他的生活並不輕鬆，但敵人無法壓制他。每次有什麼事臨到他，聖經就說：「他尋求主。」每次他尋求主，主就給他一條回來的路。他吩咐大衛，大衛就照著耶和華的吩咐，將眾人都救了回來。
耶穌基督，然而，是復出的終極故事！他肯定是沒戲了，那天他在人群面前咽下最後一口氣，被釘在十字架上。他被折磨和羞辱；他被埋在墳墓裡…但他回來了，他帶著能力回來了！
這是對今天的你說的話嗎？你會成為一個復出的故事嗎？你會帶著能力回來嗎？看起來你已經失敗了，但你不是。可能看起來已經結束了，但直到神說它結束了，它才結束。神給了我們一個應許；我們會勝利的！當我們在心中相信這個真理時，沒有什麼能阻止它。
使仇敵閉嘴
是時候讓仇敵閉嘴了。沒有什麼比看見神的子民從火中經過而沒有煙味更能堵住敵人的嘴了！
雅各啊，創造你的YEHEHUA；以色列啊，造成你的那位，現在如此說：「你不要害怕！因為我救贖了你。我曾提你的名召你，你是屬我的。你從水中經過，我必與你同在；你趟過江河，水必不漫過你；你從火中行過，必不被燒，火焰也不著在你身上。因為我是YEHEHUA你的神，是以色列的聖者你的救主。我已經使埃及作你的贖價，使古實和西巴代替你…（賽43:1-3）
願榮耀歸與神！我們有個應許，我的朋友。是時候復出了！
It's Comeback Time!

Micah 7:8 says, "Do not rejoice over me, my enemy; when I fall, I will arise; when I sit in darkness, the Lord will be a light to me."
I love this Scripture! To me it is the ultimate comeback. A few years ago, I was reading about a boxer who had a comeback story. No one thought he would win, but he did. In the article, he said a couple things that have stuck with me through the years. He said...
• A true champion knows how to adjust.
• A true champion always finds a way to come back.
Over the past several months, many of my friends have been under spiritual and even physical attack. I believe it is time to hear a few comeback stories! I believe God is declaring, "It's comeback time!" over many people in the Body of Christ.
I believe we are about to hear comeback stories from those individuals whom people may have said, "They will never make it. I knew they couldn't do it. They don't have what it takes to pull through." The naysayers will be wrong. Never count a man or woman out who has a heart to finish the race.
Perhaps this is the first question we need to ask ourselves: Is our heart in it? Whatever you are standing in faith for, is your heart in it? Is it something you wish for, or is it something you are standing in faith for? There is a huge difference. The difference is the heart. With the heart the man believes. We must believe God will do what He says He will do. Like Abraham, we must be fully persuaded.
A True Champion Knows How to Adjust
Philippians 4:11 says, "Not that I speak in regard to need, for I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content."
If I have learned anything in the last year it is this: how to be content. Contentment comes when we learn to adjust—adjust to changes and situations that we wish we could change. First, we must adjust our thinking. Once our thinking is adjusted, we can then adjust our words. It will take time and discipline, but we can learn to adjust and remain in the peace of God at all times. You can't allow every situation or change to move you. Remain steadfast and immovable. Stand on the Word of God without wavering. Learn to adjust.
A True Champion Always Finds a Way to Come Back
There are some people you can't keep down. King David was one of those. Numerous times, people sought to kill him. He had his entire family taken from him. His wife turned against him. His life was not an easy life, but the enemy could not keep him down. Each time something came against him the Bible says, "He sought the Lord." Each time he sought the Lord, the Lord gave him a way to come back. He gave him instruction and as David followed the leading of the Lord, he recovered all.
Jesus Christ, however, is the ultimate comeback story! He was definitely counted out. He took His last breath in front of the crowd that day, nailed to a Cross. He was tortured and humiliated; He was buried and sealed in a tomb...but He came back—and He came back with power!
Is this word for you today? Will you be a comeback story? Will you come back with power? It may have looked like you were out for the count, but you are not. It may look over, but it is not over until God says it is over. God has made us a promise; we will come out victorious! When we believe this truth in our hearts, nothing can stop it.
Shut the Mouth of the Enemy
It's time to shut the mouth of the enemy. There is nothing that shuts the mouth of the enemy like seeing God's people come through the fire without the smell of smoke!
Isaiah 43:1-3 says, "...'Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by your name; you are Mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned, nor shall the flame scorch you. For I am the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior...'"
Glory be to God! We have a promise, my friend. It is comeback time!
