Dear beloved,
In every Chinese New Year, you would likely be greeted with “Gong Xi Fa Cai” (Wishing you a prosperous Chinese New Year). Yet some people feel that unless you add in another phrase “Hoon pow na lai” (bring your “angpow”) you won’t prosper much. How true when the Word of God teaches us “give and it shall be given”.
Certainly our Heavenly Father delights when His children prosper. Psa 35:27 says “… Let the LORD be magnified, which hath pleasure in the prosperity of his servant”. My personal conviction of the best way to our prosperity is what the LORD JESUS teaches us in Mat 6:32 For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. Mat 6:33 But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
Dear Heavenly Father, thank you for assuring us that You know our every need. Therefore, we no longer strive to seek Your hands; but Your face Oh LORD. Amen.

至爱的，
在每一个华人农历新年其间，别人通常会以‘恭喜发财’这句话祝贺你。有些人还加一句‘红包拿来’，认为这样会更好預兆。神的话教导我们说 ：“当你给于便会有给你的。”是多么真实阿！
天父看见祂的儿女亨通当然很喜悦。诗篇35：27 说：“...当尊耶和华为大！耶和华喜悦祂的仆人平安。”依我个人的感动，关于亨通最好的方法，就是好像主耶稣在马太福音6：32所教导的：“这都是外邦人所求的。 你们需用的这一切东西，你们的天父是知道的。”33节：“你们要先求祂的国和祂的义，这些东西都要加给你们了。”
亲爱的天父，谢谢你知道我们每一个需要。因此，我们不必挣扎单要求你祝福的手，但要寻求你的面。阿们。
