詩篇 30:11-12
1. 求聖靈在你生命中工作
"親愛的聖靈, 求你光照我心靈的深處, 使我看見我的罪, 我和主耶穌的阻隔,
求你幫助, 奉主耶穌基督名求。阿們。"
2. 透過聖靈的工作, 安靜一刻, 省察自己, 之後祈禱:
「親愛的主耶穌，感謝你為我的罪釘死在十字架上，我願意在你面前承認我的罪（凡聖靈光照到的，請逐一說出），求你用你的寶血赦免我的罪，我願意打開心門讓你作我的救主，求你救贖我，我願意一生跟隨你讓你作我生命的主，求你帶領我。聖靈，求你充滿我，使我得著恩賜及力量去事奉主、見證主。奉主耶穌基督名求，阿們。」

9 過 去 之 後 ， 以 利 亞 對 以 利 沙 說 ： 我 未 曾 被 接 去 離 開 你 ， 你 要 我 為 你 做 甚 麼 ， 只 管 求 我 。 以 利 沙 說 ： 願 感 動 你 的 靈 加 倍 地 感 動 我 。
10 以 利 亞 說 ： 你 所 求 的 難 得 。 雖 然 如 此 ， 我 被 接 去 離 開 你 的 時 候 ， 你 若 看 見 我 ， 就 必 得 著 ； 不 然 ， 必 得 不 著 了 。
列王紀下 2:9-10
現在讓你有一段安靜的時間, 給聖靈一個空間, 讓主耶穌可以藉着你剛才讀過的經文, 對你說話:
我的聆聽
The third secret to receive your coach's gift is to have the courage to ask boldly. Boldly in a way that you feel what God wants you to ask. Boldly in a way that you know that God will listen to your request and prayers. And, after you ask, you need to stay as close to your coach as possible in order to receive what you have asked. It's not easy, because first we do not have the courage to ask, second we do not have time to stay close to our coach because we do not have that time.
Let's see how Professor John Goldingay tells us:
Let's see how Professor John Goldingay tells us:
The double share of someone's legacy is the share allocated to the firstborn son, in recognition of the fact that he has responsibility for the family's welfare and future, and for the fulfilling of its responsibility to vulnerable people outside it such as widows and orphans and immigrants. In effect Elisha is asking to have the resources that will make it possible for him to be Elijah's successor. Elijah knows he cannot decide that he will had them; it is God's business. The story thus points to another aspect of the relationship between divine decision making and human volunteering in connection with someone's becoming a prophet.

Do you have a coach to stay close by? Do you have the courage to ask your coach to pass on his/her gift to you in a bold way?

Dear Lord Jesus,
Help us to find good coaches and to stay close with our coaches. Give us courage to ask what you want us to ask boldly so that we can receive a double portion of their gifts from our coaches. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.

1. If you were Elisha, do you have that courage to ask for double portion? Why YES or why NO?
2. How can you stay close to your coaches? How can you have the courage to ask for double portion?
