21:1 RUGACIUNE SI CREDINTA 21:2 Am vazut deseori cum copiii lui Dumnezeu neglijeaza rugaciunea, mai ales cea tainica, mult, mult prea mult; ca multi nu exercita acea credinta pe care au datoria si privilegiul de a o exercita, asteptand adesea acel simtamant pe care numai credinta il poate aduce. Simtirea nu este credinta; cele doua sunt lucruri distincte. Credinta ne apartine, pentru a o exercita, dar simtamintele de bucurie si binecuvantarea sunt ale lui Dumnezeu si El le ofera. Harul lui Dumnezeu vine la suflet prin canalul de credinta vie si sta in puterea noastra sa ne folosim de acea credinta. 21:3 Credinta adevarata se prinde si pretinde binecuvantarea promisa inainte de a o primi si simti. Trebuie sa trimitem in credinta cererile noastre, sus, dincolo de cea de-a doua despartitura, si sa ne lasam credinta sa se prinda de binecuvantarea fagaduita si sa o pretindem ca fiind a noastra. Atunci trebuie sa credem ca primim binecuvantarea, intrucat credinta noastra s-a prins de ea si, dupa Cuvant, este a noastra. "Orice lucru veti cere cand va rugati, sa credeti ca l-ati si primit, si-l veti avea." Marcu 11,24. Iata credinta, credinta desavarsita, sa credem ca am primit binecuvantarea chiar inainte de a se realiza. Cand binecuvantarea promisa este primita si ne bucuram de ea, credinta este depasita. Dar multi au parerea ca au mai multa credinta cand se bucura intr-o mare masura de Duhul Sfant, si ca nu pot avea credinta, daca nu simt puterea Duhului. Asemenea persoane confunda credinta cu binecuvantarea care vine prin credinta. Momentul cel mai potrivit pentru a ne exercita credinta este atunci cand ne simtim lipsiti de Duhul Sfant. Cand norii grosi, de intuneric, par sa se stranga deasupra mintii, atunci este momentul sa lasam credinta vie sa strapunga negura si sa risipeasca norii. Adevarata credinta se intemeiaza pe fagaduintele cuprinse in Cuvantul lui Dumnezeu, si numai aceia care se supun acelui Cuvant pot pretinde fagaduintele lui 21:4 glorioase. "Daca ramaneti in Mine si daca raman in voi cuvintele Mele, cereti orice veti vrea si vi se va da." Ioan 15,7. "Si orice vom cere, vom capata de la El, fiindca pazim poruncile Lui si facem ce este placut inaintea Lui." 1 Ioan 3,22 21:5 Ar trebui sa petrecem mult timp in rugaciune tainica. Hristos este vita, voi sunteti mladitele. Si daca vrem sa crestem si sa inflorim, trebuie sa ne tragem continuu seva si hrana din Vita cea Vie; caci despartiti de Vita, nu avem nici o putere. 21:6 L-am intrebat pe inger de ce nu mai era credinta si putere in Israel. El a spus: "Voi dati drumul prea curand la bratul Domnului. Staruiti cu cererile voastre inaintea tronului si prindeti-va bine, prin credinta puternica. Fagaduintele sunt sigure. Credeti ca primiti lucrurile pe care le cereti, si le veti avea." Atentia mi-a fost apoi atrasa asupra lui Ilie. Si el era supus acelorasi pasiuni ca si noi, si s-a rugat cu hotarare. Credinta lui a trecut cu bine incercarea. De sapte ori s-a rugat inaintea Domnului si, in cele din urma, norul s-a aratat. Am vazut ca noi ne-am indoit de fagaduintele sigure si L-am ranit pe Mantuitorul prin lipsa noastra de credinta. Ingerul a spus: "Pune-ti armatura si mai presus de orice ia-ti scutul credintei; caci acela iti va apara inima, viata insasi de sagetile de foc ale celor rai". Daca vrajmasul ii poate face pe cei disperati sa-si ia ochii de la Isus, sa priveasca la ei insisi si sa se ocupe de propria lor nevrednicie, in loc sa se gandeasca la vrednicia lui Isus, la dragostea, meritele si marea Sa indurare, el le va lua scutul credintei si isi va atinge scopul; vor fi expusi, neaparati in fata ispitelor lui de foc. Cei slabi ar trebui, de aceea, sa priveasca la Isus si sa creada in El; ei exercita atunci credinta. |

Special note for ANDROID SmartPhones
I recommend to download PhoneMe emulator for Android from here.
Especially I recommend phoneME Advanced - Foundation Profile + MIDP High Resolution b168 rev20547 from here, or from here.
Then you have to build your application, to transfer the .jar and .jad files on your mobile phone and run using this nice emulator.
1. Install a Zip Utility from Android Market.
2. Install a File Manager from Android Market.
3. Download and install PhoneMe, as mentioned above.
4. Build your application by using Download Multilingual Service or Dynamic Download (zip).
5. Copy the zip file into your Android Phone and unzip the content in a folder, and then write down the path to the unzipped files and the name of the .jad file.
6. Launch PhoneMe from your smartphone.
7. Inside PhoneMe, write to the main window the path and the name to the .jad file, above mentioned. Will look something like: file:///mnt/sd/download/BiblePhone.jad and then press enter.
8. The application will be installed, and next a hyperlink will be available below the above mentioned textbox. On this way you can install as many of MIDP application you like on your Android Phone.
How to install the application in Java Mobile enabled phones
It is possible now to have the Holy Scriptures on your mobile phone and to read
it wherever you are due to the Mobile Information Device Profile (MIDP)
technology in 1.0 and 2.0 versions, developed for Java applications.
A good advice is to try in the beginning the MIDP 1.0 / 128 Kbytes version, and
progressively to advance to MIDP 2.0 and larger volumes (512 Kbytes or more).
The application is available for MIDP 2.0, MIDP 1.0. You have only to select one
table on the field MIDP2.0 or MIDP1.0, according to the desired Bible version.
Then, you shall make a click on the JAR (Java Archive) file in order to obtain
the software to be installed on your mobile phone.
I recommend you to start with STARTER(MIDP1.0old) edition, then to continue with
INTERMEDIATE(MIDP1.0), and in the end, if the mobile phone supports this thing,
to try to install the ADVANCED (MIDP2.0) edition. Also, start with 128 kbytes
volumes, continue with 512 kbytes, and at the end try the version in one file.
There are cases where the mobile phone requires so called JAD (Java Descriptor)
files. These JAD files has to be
uploaded, on this case, together with the desired JAR files(s).
There are different methods to download the applications in your mobile phone as
follows:
1. Directly from Internet by using a WAP or GPRS connection
2. By using the infrared port of the mobile phone
3. By wireless Bluetooth access to the mobile phone
4. By cable link between PC ad mobile phone
5. If none from the above cases are valid
Next, we shall examine each case in order to have a successfully installation of
the software.
1. Directly from Internet by using a WAP or GPRS connection
If your have Internet access on your mobile phone (e.g. WAP or GPRS), it is
enough to access
https://biblephone.intercer.net/wap/ from the browser of the mobile phone,
and to access the desired Bible version, and then to make an option about
MIDP1.0 or MIDP2.0, and finally to select the desired module (e.g. one or more).
After the last selection, the desired version will be downloaded on your mobile
phone.
Many phones have only this option for installing JAVA appplications.
2. By using the infrared port of the mobile phone
Sometimes there is a need for a special uploader software for specific mobile
phones.
If you don't have access to Internet directly from your mobile phone, then you
shall have to pass to this step requiring to have infrared ports on your mobile
phone and on the computer.
a. On this case, you will download the application by using the computer from
the Internet (i.e. JAR files).
b. Once the application is downloaded (preferable on the desktop) you will have
to activate the infrared port on the mobile phone and align it with the infrared
port of the computer (preferable laptop).
c. Then a window will appear asking what file you want to send to the mobile
phone. Next, you will select the downloaded JAR file, and after OK, the mobile
phone will ask you if you want to load that file. You say YES and the
application will be downloaded on your mobile phone.
d. Probably, you will be asked by the mobile phone where you want to save it (e.g.
on the games or applications directories). After you made this selection, the
file will be ready to be loaded for run.
The displaying preference can be set inside the application in order to have
larger fonts, full screen display etc.
3. By wireless Bluetooth access to the mobile phone
Sometimes there is a need for a special uploader software for specific mobile
phones.
This situation is similar with the infrared case. You have only to activate
Bluetooth access on your mobile phone (check if exists) and on the computer (check
if exists).
4. By cable link between PC ad mobile phone
Sometimes there is a need for a special uploader software for specific
mobile phones.
On this case the steps are as follows:
a. On this case, you will download the application by using the computer from
the Internet (i.e. JAR files).
b. Once the application is downloaded (preferable on the desktop) you will have
to set up the wired connection between the mobile phone and the computer. Next,
you will start the synchronization / data transfer application and download the
JAR file in your mobile phone. Surely, you will have to consult the CD of your
mobile phone.
c. By this application you shall transfer into your mobile phone the JAR file in
the games or applications directories. Next, you will have to select for run the
JAR desired file.
5. If none from the above cases are valid
On this unhappy case, I recommend you to find a friend with a laptop having
infrared / Bluetooth capabilities, or to buy a data link cable, or to change
your current model of mobile phone.
Unfortunately, some models of mobile phones require only WAP/GPRS in order to
download and run Java applications.
Sometimes there is a need for a special uploader software for specific mobile
phones. Therefore check the documentation of them and also the page for specific
models.
Why so many versions? Simple, because not all the mobile phones support the
Bible in one file with MIDP 2.0 (the most advanced for the time being).
