This morning I have seen the testimony of Heidi Baker (海蒂.貝克).  This is a great testimony. I was amazed at the last part of the testimony.  The Lord had freeze Heidi Baker. God also said to her that without God, Heidi is nothing; without the body of Christ ( church), Heidi is nothing.  That is to say; we need God and we need the brothers and sisters in the church. Heidi also revealed that she saw Jesus in vision when they met each other face to face. Heidi Baker said that the eyes of Jesus Christ are so beautiful,burning like fire.

今天早上,我看到了海蒂貝克的見證。這是一個偉大的見證。我很驚訝見證最後的部分。神將海蒂貝克凍結不能動。上帝對她說,沒有上帝,海蒂是什麼; 沒有基督的身體(教會),海蒂是什麼。這就是說,我們需要上帝,我們需要在教會的兄弟姐妹。海蒂還透露說,在異象她看見耶穌時是彼此面對面。海蒂貝克說,耶穌基督的眼睛是那麼美麗,燃燒像火。  

In the incident, Heidi Baker was freeze for three days. In those three days, brothers and sisters in the church took her from hotel to church, feeding her with water, clean her, and other actions.  Therefore, without the brothers, Heidi can do nothing in those three days.  Therefore God told Heidi that   沒有基督的身體(教會),海蒂是什麼。這就是說,我們需要上帝,我們需要在教會的兄弟姐妹。

 
May the Lord bless you!  You will be touched through the testimony of a great lady of God, Heidi Baker who took thousands of orphans and established thousands of churches in Africa.

Heidi Baker is a Christian full of love.

Rolland and Heidi Baker are directors of Iris Ministries, a nondenominational Christian mission to orphaned and abandoned children in Mozambique, Africa.  They set up over 8,000 churches in 26 nations in about 15 years.

An extract from the website of Heidi Baker :  http://www.irismin.org/p/background.php

Rolland and Heidi Baker began Iris Ministries, Inc., an interdenominational mission, in 1980 and have been missionaries for the past twenty-five years. They were both ordained as ministers in 1985 after completing their BA and MA degrees at Southern California College in Biblical Studies and Church Leadership. Rolland is a third-generation missionary born and raised in China and Taiwan. He was greatly influenced by his grandfather, H.A. Baker, who wrote "Visions Beyond the Veil," an account of the extended visions of heaven and hell that children received in his remote orphanage in southwest China two generations ago.

Heidi was powerfully called to the mission field when she was sixteen and living on an Indian reservation as an American Field Service student. She was led to the Lord by a Navajo preacher. Several months later she was taken up in a vision for several hours and heard the Lord speak to her and tell her to be a minister and a missionary to Africa, Asia and England. When she returned home to Laguna Beach, California, she began ministering at every opportunity and leading short-term mission teams. Rolland and Heidi met at a small charismatic church in Southern California and married six months later after realizing they were united in their calling and desire to see revival among the poor and forgotten of the world.

Rolland and Heidi spent twelve years in Asia. The first six years they led Christian dance-drama crusades in Philippines, Taiwan, Indonesia, and Hong Kong. They made use of their backgrounds in creative media and the performing arts, and saw thousands come to Jesus.

After meeting Jackie Pullinger-To and working with her ministry to drug addicts in Hong Kong, however, they had a strong feeling that the Lord wanted to change the direction of their ministry. Their hearts were increasingly broken for the poor and unwanted. They wondered about their crusade converts and wanted to concentrate more on the specific daily needs of those to whom they ministered. This was a time of change. They began to plant works among the poor--first in the slums of central Jakarta, Indonesia, and then among forgotten street sleepers and elderly in the most crowded urban area in the world, central Kowloon in Hong Kong. God was giving them his heart for the poor and abandoned.

In 1992 they left to do their PhDs in systematic theology at King's College, University of London. At the same time they planted a church among the homeless, drug addicts and alcoholics who lived on the streets in central London.

In 1995, after twenty years of praying and waiting, they arrived in Mozambique, the poorest country in the world. The government offered Iris Ministries a horribly dilapidated and neglected "orphanage," and with no promised support such a project they simply said, "Yes, we'll take it!" They began with eighty children, but their hearts were broken for the lost and abandoned children still on the streets of Maputo. After many years of brutal civil war, thousands left orphaned, displaced and abandoned. The Mozambican and foreign staff of Iris Ministries began to pick up and take in these lost children. God poured down his love and provided food day by day. They grew to 320 children. They planted a church in the community and began to see hundreds turn their hearts to the Lord.

The former communist directors of the government orphanage were furious ever since the Bakers took over, since their extreme corruption and thievery had been stopped. Scheming together with an equally corrupt faction of the government, they concocted accusations and issued a legal decree to Iris Ministries forbidding prayer and worship, Christian singing, etc., and all forms of "unapproved" food and clothes distribution and medical assistance. If they and their children did not obey these new rules, they all had forty-eight hours to leave. Heidi was also told that there was a contract out on her life, and that she was not allowed back on the property. Overwhelmed and exhausted by the fight, they had to evacuate to their office in the city. ………

【詩95:9-11  那時你們的祖宗試我探我,並且觀看我的作為。四十年之久,我厭煩那世代,說:“這是心裡迷糊的百姓,竟不曉得我的作為。”所以我在怒中起誓說:“他們斷不可進入我的安息!”
【詩103:7】 他使摩西知道他的法則,叫以色列人曉得他的作為。
【耶29:11】 耶和華說,我知道我向你們所懷的意念是賜平安的意念,不是降災禍的意念,要叫你們末後有指望。

起來 - 作者:查思博牧師

門徒正圍繞他,他就起來,走進城去。
使徒行傳14:20

猶太人用石頭打保羅,以為他死了,把他丟下;而門徒則圍著他,看他能否起來。神的兒女啊,別指望別人會扶你一把,你先要踏出第一步,之後,神自會差派別人來幫助你。

保羅說:「我們……周圍遭患難,外有爭戰,內有懼怕。但那安慰喪氣之人的神,藉著提多來安慰了我們。」(哥林多後書7:5-6)我們需要更多像提多一樣的信徒激勵我們,因為我們很容易放棄、怨天尤人。其實亞當的時候已有怨言:「你所賜給我、與我同居的女人,她把那樹上的果子給我,我就吃了。」(創世記3:12)耶和華神問夏娃,她竟把責任推到蛇的身上!

只有能承擔責任,你才能時刻與神同在;也只有存著溫柔的心接受管教,你的生命才得以被提升。起來吧!你的問題並不獨特,也不是第一個跌倒的人。要是你看到身邊有多少人在同一戰場上爭戰,摔過同樣的跤,也許你會驚訝不已。問題不在於你是否摔倒,而是你有否再次起來。

要學習那些這樣說的人:“我永不倒下,因我總能再次起來!”
